Rosetta approached Prof Cinder's lab with caution. She had never been in one of these places before so she was well aware that anything would happen. She walked though the open door carefully and looked around. She couldn't see anyone so she called out "anyone home?" before walking a little further into the room and stood behind an old desk. The place looked deserted so she called out again "Hello?"

A woman in her late twenties peered suddenly round a corner, lights reflecting off her glasses. Coming out from her small study, Prof. Cinders smiled at the newcomer. 'Hello there. Sorry I didn't come sooner, I was finishing a top secret research project which you will forget I mentioned at all. What's your name?' she smiled, and winked to show she was joking about the top secret work.

"Rosetta" the girl answered sweetly "I'm here about a pokedex adn some pokeballs. Would you be able to give some to me?" Rosetta studied the professer with great interest. She really wanted to be like this one day. To care adn study pokemon was her dream but she wanted to go out into the real world first and catch and learn about pokemon.

'Ah, a new trainer. Sure we have some pokeballs, and a pokedex... I'm sorry, we don't have outdated software here.' The professor smirked, and handed the girl a watch she had swiftly pulled from her lab coat pocket. 'This is the latest pokedex technology. It connects straight to the internet, has an inbuilt phone and a 3D holographic display. Just press this button to activate it.'
Cinders leaned over the watch and pressed one of the buttons on the left of the 2D display. Suddenly, a light shone from the screen, and pixels jumped into place in mid-air. It quickly scanned Rosetta's face, and displayed it on the holographic display. A voice echoed from it, and said "Rosetta. Other details unknown." Prof. Cinders smiled.
'You have to enter your details using the same button. The button next to it activates the phone, andthe button on the other side activates the pokedex and map. Do have fun.'

'On holiday,' sighed the professor, fingering a random pokeball lying on the desk. 'Oh, and the advance in technology over here is mainly due to myself. Those watches are my own invention. By the way, do you want a pokemon? If you don't already have one, of course.'

Hazel had heard the new trainer. She decided that Rosetta would be her first new trainer in her new job as lab assisstant.
She grabbed 3 pokéballs from the drawer in Frankie's desk (she didn't have any in her new desk yet) and set them on the table. "We have.... Treecko, Mudkip or Torchic! Take your pick!" she said in a mock gameshow prize accent.
Her Seedot, Lotad, Sunkern and Pineco came into the lab, they were still getting used to the lab and had a great time running around outside!

"I alread have a pidgey and a meowth thank you" Rosetta smiled "if you don't mind me asking, what made you come into the pokemon world and then to study pokemon and invent like you do?" She asked curiously looking at her feet and thinking she was out of place.

Prof. Cinders smiled at Rosetta. She liked the inquisitive kind of person; they usually asked the right kind of questions. She leant back on the lab desk, and looked at the ceiling. 'When I was ten, my father died in a car crash. My mother kept me home instead of letting me train pokemon, so i got a lot of time to myself. I designed a smaller pokeball, and went on the internet as much as possible. I played on MUDs a lot, which is what came before RPs. I met quite a few intellectuals that way, including the designer to the pokedex. Not Prof. Oak, he only came up with the idea and commissioned it, but a person who called themselves "Mystery Shade". I don't know what their real name was.'
'Anyways, that's how I got into inventing. But I still needed to do something with pokemon, I just had to. But my mother forced me to study hard, and I had no time to play or train. So, finally, I got into university and left home. That's where I met Maple. She has a story of her own that I don't know, but I do know that we were mortal enemies from the beginning. I studied advanced computer engineering, graphic design and, secretly, pokemon biology. My mother would've killed me if she knew, but as soon as I got a doctorate in all three she hailed me as a hero. So here I am, and that's my story.'

"i'm sorry, i didn't expect your life history. Most of the people i meet are very secretive but your so open and honest. I was wondering....if there was anything i coud do for you" Rosetta said slowly and, again looked at her feet "you see i've always wanted to study pokemon and i think i want to work in a lab like this one day..but... if there was anything i could do for you, just to help you out and so i can understand more what this work is like then....well, that would really help."

Hazel jumped in "The professor already had two assistants, me and Frankie, and I don't think she needs another one, do you professor?" she asked nervously.

Prof. Cinders beamed at Rosetta. 'It's true that I already have all the help I need, but sometimes the pokemon get lonely. Could you help look after them when we're not studying them, or feeding them and the like?' she asked. She'd never been called honest before; even though everyone knew she was, no one had ever said.

Rosetta, who was not good at hiding her feelings or keeping her mouth shut, immediately jumped for joy (literally!!). She let out a girlish giggle and said "that would be utterly fantastic!!!!" and then thanked teh Professor for about 5 minutes and explained how she would prove herself and that the prof would never doubt taking her in. "so.." Rosetta said looking quite red in teh face for talking for so long with0out taking many breaths "when do i start adn where are the pokemon??"

After all this thanks, the professor was blushing bright red and was quite overcome with extremely loud laughter. 'Haha... They're out back, Rose-HAHA-tta!' she giggled, pointing unsteadily at a door in the study. 'Be careful not to get in the midd-idd-iddle of any battles...Hehehehehe...' Still bright red, the professor managed to calm down slightly.

Rosetta walked around teh lab to the back and walked up to teh side of one of teh fields where a lot of singed grass and some small orange pokemon were running around like...well... headless chickens really. Rosetta jumped teh fence and went right into the middle of teh field where a large tree stump lay. Then, much to the surprise of a few pairs pf prying eyes she could see through the lab windows, she sat there, completely still, and watched teh firey torchics run around near her.

OOC: STOP ******* UP YOUR GRAMMAR!
You're gonna get a warning if you're not careful with this. Luckily, the new PBV4 has a spell check option on it (I think) USE IT!
If I see another "teh" or "adn" I am gonna ban someone!
EVIL ADMIN JOSH IS BACK!

*OOC: hides from eval admin*
BIC: Suddenly, a girl with the most terribly clashing clothes literally bounced into the field, looked around, and spotted Rosetta. "Howdy!" the girl shouted, even though Rosetta was barely 5 feet away. "What's your name? Do you work here? D'ya know where I can find Prof Cinders? May I have a Treecko please? Would you happen to have any pokeballs?..." Realising she was probably freaking the poor girl out, the new girl took a couple of deep breaths, and offered her hand. "I'm Willow by the way. Willow Taylor. Some people call me Will, but I prefer Willow, but you can call me Will if you want, as long as you don't call me Willy, cos that's just weird, a bit like me really!" Willow said all this in one breath, then promptly collapsed in laughter.

OOC: sorry....... i'll try to make my grammar better.....
BIC: Rosetta smiled and said "Hi, I'm Rosetta and i do kinda work here. Professor Cinders is inside and i'm sure she'll give you a treeko and pokeballs" Rosetta had a very good memory and so she found it easy to keep track of what people like this said. She then turned back to look at the torchics who were cowering in the corner of the field, apparently frightened by all the noise.

Having calmed down to almost normality, Willow smiled back. "Ta, Rosetta - I'd better go, I don't want to give all the Torchics heart attacks," she said, glancing at the poor pokemon. She picked herself up and skipped into the lab, where she saw a couple of people in white coats, one of whom seemed to have just recovered from a similar laughing fit. Careful not to appear too mad, Willow slowly made her way towards them and smiled at the professor. "Hiya Prof Cinders! May I have a Treecko and pokeballs and all that jazz please?"

Meanwhile Rosetta had walked over to the shaking tochics and spoken soothingly to them. Then she got up, jumped the fence again and went back into the lab to see what trouble Willow was causing. When she walked in she saw a rather worried looking Professor Cinders being cowered over by Willow. She walked up beside Willow and indroduced her: "This is Willow. She just came in to get started, like I did." She then smiled and walked behind the Professor and whispered in her ear "She's a bit energetic and loud." Then she stood up, smiled at Willow, shot a glance at Hazel and waited for someone to say something.

Willow, now a bit confused, smiled back at Rosetta and attempted to be calm and normal. "Sorry professor, didn't mean to cause too much havoc," she said with a laugh. Then suddenly realising something, Willow bit her lip. "You don't think...I'm not really...Maybe I am..." Glancing up at the concerned-looking people around her, Willow whispered in a worried tone, "I'm not too loud and hyper to be a trainer, am I? Please say I'm not?"

The professor smiled at the girl, a little shakily to be honest, but she still smiled. 'No one can be too hyper to be a trainer,' she said calmly, patting the girl softly on the shoulder. 'Just... try not to scare people.'

Willow smiled back at the kind professor and nodded, although to the people around her it looked as if she was trying to shake her head off her neck. Finally getting a grip on herself, she took a couple of deep breaths and put on her face of focused determination. "I'll try, professor - but no promises!" she answered. "So...may I possibly have a Treecko please?"

Rosetta smiled and walked back outside to see the torchics once again. She wasn't glad to get rid of Willow because she thought they would get on but she just wanted to impress the pofessor. This had been her dream from childhood and now she really wanted to show everyone how she worked with pokemon and maybe one day, this was her dream, she could be famous!!

Prof. Cinders smiled once again. 'I'll just go and get it. Wait here...' She walked into the back of the lab, hidden from view of Willow, and loud crashes were heard as drawers were thrown open and closed in a rush. Finally, the professor came out, a confused expression on her face. Then, suddenly, a glint of remembrance lit in her eye. 'ROSETTA! Can you bring a treecko in from outside please? I let the starters out for a run this morning,' she admitted guiltily.
