The Wingulls called out as the sun rose out of the deep blue sea that kissed the sky that was filling with pinks and oranges. The clouds were brightening in turn and the stars fading into the ever brightening sky. The Tide rolled in with waves that lapped at the white sandy beach that marked the coast of Grimbsy Bay. Shells washed up with every push of the salt filled water and were washed over with foam as the waves dragged themselves back into the sea. Peliper's cried out not far off the coast and soon there were Magicarp and Finneons jumping with the waves. As the morning breeze carried the curtains to Eve's bedroom window she felt a weight shift on her bed. She rolled over so her back faced the wall, multicolored orbs opening slightly to look around at her now lightening bedroom. It was small, almost cramped, but it was a bedroom all the same. Full of stuffed toys and action figures, and the walls were covered in painting and drawings of different pokemon and places, even a few people. Sitting up she rubbed her eyes and sighed slightly, fingers curling into balled fists that soon were finding themselves rubbing at her eyes.
"Eve!" A familiar voice called out. "Get ready or you'll be late!" It was her father, Profesor Caspian Socotra, calling up the stairs from the bottom floor where the lab was located.
The blonde girl rolled her eyes and groaned, falling backwards onto her bed and turning to wrap her arms around her father's Leafeon that was sleeping with her. "Late, pft. Where would I have to be?" She grumbled into the soft fur of the grass type pokemon.
"Leaf?" The pokemon pressed warm licks to Eve's closed eyes and it made the girl giggle out in protest.
"Awe come on! Not you too." She whined and put a hand on the pokemon's head before wiping the spittle off with her other hand. "What would I be late for?" She grumbled and sat up again, this time swinging her feet over her bedside. Eyes slowly found the calendar by her bedroom door. In bright red ink the day was circled. Unlike regions like Kanto and Sinnoh or even Unova where kids around age ten to twelve start their pokemon adventures, kids in Elysium have to wait until they're at least fifteen to start their adventure, and even then most parents wait to give permission until sixteen. Eve's own parents wouldn't let her go last year, but this year was different, it was her year! With that realization the girl bolted out of bed and straight to her dresser. "Sugar! I'm going to be late!" She cried out and started to struggle to get dressed. The leafeon laid back down to rest once more. As soon as she was dressed she ran out her bedroom door and down the stairs, into the house section of the lighthouse building. She was stopped in the kitchen by her dad.
"Whoa there Eve. Don't think you're starting out before you eat your breakfast." Gage scolded, his long black hair was tied back and he sighed. "You didn't even brush your hair."
"I want to meet my first pokemon though!" She was pouting now.
"Guinevere."
"Fiiiine" Eve groaned and turned around to go back upstairs and finish getting around properly. She really was going to be late at this rate.
Meanwhile, in the labratory section of the lighthouse building, he was doing some stretches while waiting on the first arivial of the kids that were supposed to come get pokemon from him. So they could start their very own pokemon adventures. The Lab was small, but big enough for what Prof. Socotra needed it for. There were charts and machines all over, and plenty of paperwork and books. The bue haired man finished his stretched and opened the front door of his lab, looking around for any kids that were here for pokemon. The professor had specially selected four pokemon for this, each being great candidates for first pokemon and training partners. He was excited to see what the first arrival would pick. The stipulation was that Eve could not pick first, and so far, she might not get to pick hers since she was still not downstairs yet. No matter. Caspian was sure his daughter wouldn't mind the pokemon she got, after all, he knew she was going to aim for more than just one pokemon. Most kids did after all.
Sitting down in his chair he watched the open door and relaxed. To his left was a table with four pokeballs sitting out, and to his right was a Meloetta who was in Aria form and holding a long, thin, silver box. The pokemon looked over to Caspian and smiled softly and he smiled back. "I'm sure there will be a kid any moment, Grace, don't worry." He stated and placed a hand on the pokemon's back. He hoped sooner rather than later really, it would be a real pain to sit all day and have no one show up. Not that he was worried or anything, the kids he told to show up were kids who were no doubt ready for their first pokemon, so he was sure they'd come on the scheduled day. He just didn't want to be stuck in one place all day, that sounded like a snooze fest.
