Having received her Mudkip and Pokeballs, Ki set off to catch herself some Pokemon. She knew how horrible it was to stay locked up, so when she felt the the Pokeball which her Mudkip was in start shivering, she let it out immediately. "Mudkip, go!" Her first pokemon leaped out onto the ground, gave Ki a mischievous glance, then ran off towards Lake City. "Hey! Come back here!" Ki shouted, racing after the little blue dot. She hadn’t even given it a name yet, and already it was a little rebel. She carried on running, but her sword was weighing her down; even so, she wouldn’t part with her sword for the world.
When she was finally within grabbing distance of Mudkip, Ki smiled. “Well, I’m all for intense training, but I guess I wasn’t expecting this on my first day,” she whispered as she scooped up a giggling Mudkip. “Now, what to call you?” Ki looked intently into Mudkip’s face as she stroked her tail. “Fin?” The tail whacked her hand. “Okay, okay...how about Ripple?” This earned her another whack. “Fine! Have it your way! I’ll give you a name after we’ve battled a few pokemon, alright?” Her Mudkip giggled again – then stopped, and jumped out of Ki’s arms, staring at a seemingly normal tree near them.

Suddenly a figure jumped out of the tree adn landed in front of Ki "hi" she said in a very hostile voice before turning ready to leave. Very odd behaviour for someone on the road toi lake city....

Ki looked at the girl, a little puzzled at her behaviour. She was about to reply when Mudkip nudged her and looked pointedly at the tree again.
“Mudkip? What’s wrong?” Ki examined the tree closely, then spotted a hint of pink nestling in a hole halfway up the trunk. “Wow...maybe it’s a pokemon!” Ki got out her Pokedex, which confirmed her thoughts – it was in fact a Wurmple. Ki was delighted. “Okay Mudkip, let’s do this! Tackle that Wurmple!” Mudkip obeyed, sending the Wurmple flying out of the tree. “Nice work! Now Growl, and Tackle again!” Ki said. She watched as her Mudkip dodged Wurmple’s attack, then hit it again. “Brilliant! Let’s see if I can do this!” She took out a pokeball from her pocket, gave it a silent wish, and threw it over to the weary pokemon. “Pokeball go!”<br> [Treynor33- Please don't double post. Just put it all in one post. -sorry, this better?

The pokeball shook a couple of times but soon stopped and sat in the grass, completely still. "you have a good, obedient pokemon there" Ki spun around and saw the giorl who had behaved so oddly leaning against the tree "my name is Zelda" she said after Ki had finished staring at her.

Ki went to pick up the pokeball. "My first ever capture!" she whispered, half to herself and half to Mudkip. Straightening up, she placed her new pokemon carefully into her pocket and turned to Zelda. "Thanks, I'm Ki," she replied. "I guess you must be a pretty good pokemon trainer - what pokemon do you have?"

"a ponyta called Epona and a vulpix called Flame" Zelda said in not such a menacing tone. Zelda, for once, seemed to have a good feeling about this person and there seemed to already be some trust in her as normally she wouldn't haev even said her name let alone what pokemon she had. "they're my best friends...." adn trailed off thinking about her darkened past.

"No," Ki admitted, "but I'm thinking about it, I don't want to rush my decision." Just like I rushed the decision to come here, she thought, but immediately pushed the thought out of her head. Anything's better than being stuck in that old castle, she reminded herself. Even if that castle did have the most beautiful surroundings...
As Ki tried to clear her head, she felt a drop of rain fall on her ice-blue hair. She looked up and saw the clouds that had gathered during her battle with Wurmple. "We'de better get some shelter, " she said to Zelda.

Zelda whistled adn immediately a beautiful ponyta came running from behind the small group of trees. "you want to go to lake city, right?" said Zelda and as soon as Ki nodded she swung her leg over the ponyta and held out a hand to Ki "well this is the quickest way! grab you mudkip adn lets go! my ponyta's going to get too tired if we stand here in teh rain, she is a fire pokemon! Come on!" Her hand was still stretched out towards Ki hoping that she would grab it. There wasn't much time left before her ponyta would get too weak to carry them both to Lake City.

OOC:
1) Rosie, you shouldn't have decided whether Ki caught the Wurmple or not- that's for Chloe to decide. Sorry for telling you off, but that's the rules. Also, don't say "Ki turned around"- that is also Chloe's decision to make.
2) CHLOE!! YOU HAVE SOME TALENT!!!
3) I'm joining in!
BIC: Isha spotted the two girls stood in the rain. Her Smoochum didn't like the puddles forming around her feet, so Isha lifted her up onto her hip. Her Squirtle splashed around, lifting its feet high, then stomping in the puddles. Her moody Elekid was trying to zap the puddles that Squirtle played in, but Squirtle was too fast. Isha's sensible Delcatty purred as it wrapped itself around her legs, obviously looking for some attention over Smoochum's wails. Isha couldn't hear herself think over the cocophony. She put her thumb and forefinger in her mouth and whistled. The pokémon froze. "Right. Calm down you lot!" she said sternly, but she could never stay angry at them for long!

Ki nodded slowly. "Alright - thank you for your kindness," she said - few people had ever shown such generosity to her. As she took Zelda's hand, she turned around to see her Mudkip playing in the puddles. "Come on Mudkip, we haven't much time!" Ki called. The only response she got was a tail-ful of water in her face. "Hey!" She scooped the pokemon into her arms again, then thought for a moment. "I know! How about I call you Splash?" Her Mudkip giggled a little, then snuggled up against Ki. "Splash it is then," Ki whispered, and taking Zelda's hand again, pulled herself up onto the Ponyta. "Thank you again," she smiled.

Isha was intrigued by these two girls. She sent out her Girafarig and climbed on it's back. Delcatty leapt up and sat on her lap, Smoochum as still in her arms, and Squirtle and Elekid sat behind her. "Girafarig- follow those girls!" Girafarig gallopped off at full speed, after the girls on the Ponyta. Isha could see them now. "HELLO!" she shouted, over the wind rushing past hre face.

Ki turned to see a young girl on a racing Girafarig coming towards her and Zelda. Behind the girl, a couple of pokemon seemed to be holding on for dear life... Another pokemon trainer! Lake City must be pretty popular, Ki thought. Not wanting to embarrass herself too much, she shouted, "Hi there!", before turning to Zelda, "Is she a friend of yours?"

"No" said Zelda "I don't keep friends too well. I find they always let me down, unlike pokemon. Ready?" But before Ki could answer Zelda had cried "ya!" and the ponyta jumped into life. Epona immediately started to gallop as fast as it could towards teh distand city adn as Zelda gripped onto it's firey mane she wispered to it telling ti to keep going and that they were nearly there.

"Lake City" cried Zelda in a very unfriendly tone turning her head for a second to shout out to Isha "isn't it obvious?"
At that moment the rain stopped and Zelda pulled Epona back to a gentle walk.

Girafarig also slowed down so it was alking beside the Ponyta. "Hi, I'm Isha!" Isha said, extending her hand.

"a pleasure i'm sure" said Zelda and a patronising voice but did not shake Isha's hand instead she gave Epona a huge pat and said "well done" completely ignoring Isha. Zelda then turned to Ki who looked very shaken "you alright?" and for the first time Zelda smiled at her. Zelda knew there was something different about Ki that she liked. She seemed loyal adn kind, not like some other people she knew. Zelda had always avoided people in the fear that they would let her down.

Does it look like I'm alright?! Ki thought, but quickly pushed the annoyance out of her head. It had been, after all, an exhilarating ride...a dragon relaxing at her touch...falling without fear...memories locked away... Ki blinked. Zelda had been looking slightly concerned. "Yes, I'm fine - your Ponyta is amazing!" she replied at last. Then she saw Isha behind Zelda - neither of them looked in quite as bad a state as she did. "I guess this is normal in the world of pokemon - do all trainers use their pokemon as transport, Isha?" she asked, not wanting to insult Zelda, but at the same time not wanting to lose a potential friend - she hadn't met people like these for a long time.

"not all people" Zelda said before Isha had a chance "it depends what pokemon they have. Some poeple prefer to travel by bike." Zelda was completely ignoring Isha "Epona and I haev been together since childhood so I use her for most transport. Anyway now the rain has stopped do you want to walk teh rest of teh way or shall we ride?" Zelda then turned around and caught sight of Isha "are you still here?" she said scowling nastily at her.

"What does it look like?" Isha replied, equally as b!tchy as Zelda. "Yeah, I use my Girafarig for transport." she started to whisper, "But he's a bit over-sensitive!" She jumped off and asked "What are your names?"

"Hi Ki!" Isha said with a smile. She replied to the other girl with gritted teeth also "Hello, Zelda."

Zelda smiled down patronisingly at Isha before turning back to Epona and fiddling with her mane. "so" snarled Zelda without looking at Isha "what are you doing on this fine afternoon?" She then got down from Epona and helped Ki down too seeing that they were going to be held up talking to Isha. Zelda knew that Epona couldn't spend a lot of time with two people on her back so she though it would be kinder to let Epona rest a while. So while Epona trotted off to go and rest under a tree Zelda waited for Isha's answer, one hand on her hip, looking down on Isha (Zelda is quite tall you know)

Ki glanced at both of them, certain there was going to be some kind of fight about to erupt before her eyes. Maybe they'll have a pokemon battle! Ki wondered, momentarily excited by the prospect of two obviously experienced trainers giving it their all, but quickly thought No, I don't want my two new friends to fight, even if it would be interesting to watch. Still, she backed away quietly, not wanting to get involved lest she said something stupid. People always seemed so complicated to her.
She walked over to the tree, near to where Epona was resting. Such a beautiful pokemon, Ki murmured. She couldn't wait for when her Wurmple would evolve into a Beautifly - she'd always loved butterflies, but never managed to catch them - a Beautifly would definitely do. "Hmmm...Wurmple, come out and relax in the sun!" She threw the pokeball into the air, and her Wurmple tumbled out into her arms, next to Splash. "Why don't you two stay out and have some fun?" Ki smiled at her eager pokemon. They jumped onto the wet grass and almost immediately started poking each other. Ki laughed softly, and walked back to Zelda and Isha.
