CHAPTER 1: BEGINNING TREK
Jordan awoke on the day before his birthday. He was psyched about getting his first Pokemon today, the only downside was that he lived in Fallarbor Town, a good two days walk from Littleroot where the Pokemon professor lived. And, to make matters worse, his mom insisted on coming with him, although he was almost ten. "A wild Pokemon will attack, and you wont be able to do anything because you don't have your own Pokemon yet. and no, you cant use one of your dads either. don't give me that look, you know how much his Linoon hates you, and hes the most docile." she would always say, and each time, Jordan fought a losing battle of trying to get out of it.
"Breakfast!" his moms voice cut through his thoughts like a hot knife through butter. Jordan got up, got dressed, and walked downstairs shortly after exiting his room.
"Good morning honey, how was your night?"
"Uh, just like any other I suppose..." Jordan replied, curious as to why his nights were suddenly important. "Why do you ask?"
"Well, your tenth birthday's tomorrow and I was just curious." his mom replied, suddenly looking like there was something she wasn't telling him.
"Whats the secret?" Jordan asked, catching on. just then, his dad, an athletic looking kind man with the beginnings of a beard appeared in the doorway.
"Ohhhh, scrambled eggs, my favorite! and orange juice! whats the rare occasion?" his father asked, pretending to forget about Jordans birthday.
"Da-ad, you know what tomorrow is." Jordan laughed as they all sat down to eat.

"Doctor, are you sure you want to do this?" a lab coat clad assistant asked. "Yes, commence phase two of The Awakening." the lab assistant pushed a lever up on the Master Control Panel and a white light suddenly filled the room.

"Can we stop here?" Jordan asked his mom as they entered Mauville. The trip from Fallarbor was fairly uneventful, with the only excitement being the occasional sighting of a Pokemon (Jordan's mom insisted that they put on repellent to make the trip faster and safer). It was almost five in the afternoon and they had been walking all day, only stopping to rest at an old ladies house just outside of Fiery Path to rest.
"I guess, but we need to find a hotel first." -And I don't like the look of this part of town- Jordan's mom thought scanning Mauville and seeing nothing but alleys and the brightly lit Game Corner and the out-of-place gym.
"OK, but first, can we stop at the Game Corner?" ever since hearing his older sisters stories about her adventures during her rare visits home, Jordan has been wanting to see what the Game Corner was like.
"Absolutely not! Do you know what goes on in casinos like those?..." Jordan's mom ranted while Jordan made a mental note to go there the first chance he gets.
THE NEXT DAY 7:04AM
"Happy birthday!" Jordan awoke suddenly, having his dream of a mile high ice cream cone instantly shattered into unremembered details of his life.
"Uuunnnggghhhhhhh!" Jordan moaned momentarily forgetting that today was his tenth birthday despite the wake up call. "Jessy!" Jordan exclaimed as he opened his eyes and saw his older sister sitting on the foot of his bed. "What are you doin' here?"
"Celebrating your tenth birthday of course! I was on my way to rebattle the third gym leader and happened to catch news of your arrival in the very town I was heading to!" Jordan's sister was fourteen and had fought and beaten the eight gym leaders, the elite four, and now the first two gyms again (who used their much stronger Pokemon for rematches) (she still hadn't beat the champion which is why she is still in Hoenn).
Jordan dove across the bed and hugged his sister, whom he hadn't seen for a couple of months.
After Jordan, his mom, and his sister ate breakfast at a Miltanks Café, Jordan was ready to be on the road again.
"Love you sis, bye!"
"You too! Oh, wait a sec, i have something to give you!" Jessey pulled out three pokeballs and two greatballs from the utility pouch on her belt. "These are for you."
"Thanks! Now I don't have to buy any before I start my journey!" Jordan ran up to Jessey and hugged her. "Bye"
Jordan and his mom left the south exit of Mauville and shortly after were confronted by a wild Minun.
"Drat, forgot the repellent." Jordan's mom pulled out one of the three pokeballs she had brought with and tossed it in front of her. "Go, Swellow! Use Wing Attack!" Swellow, a medium sized bird with dark blue feathers on its back and whit on the front leapt into the air and soard toward the Minun striking it with its wings, causing an instant knock out because of the sheer power of a high leveled Swellow to a low leveled Minun. "Good, Sellow, return." A red beam of light shot from the pokeball in Mrs. McAwn's outstretched arm.
Moments later, Jordan found himself covered in Pokemon repellent. He and his mom turned right down a u-shaped path covered in grass. The path was under the cycling road that trainers with bikes rode across to avoid wild Pokemon.
At the end, the path forked. You could go straight and cross a small body of water or you could turn left and go toward Slateport. The quickest way to Littleroot was to go straight and cross the water on either the hourly ferry or on a Pokemon's back. The ferry left fifteen minutes ago, so Jordan's mom released he Wailmer, a large blue ball Pokemon resembling a whale, into the water. Jordan and his mom got on its back and the Wailmer used Aqua Jet to shoot itself forward faster than the ferry could ever hope to go. A few minutes later, Jordan and his mom reached and over passed the ferry. A few minutes later and they reached land. The ferry wouldn't be there for another ten minutes.
They walked a bit, turned left, and headed into Oldale Town. By now it was almost dark, and even though the trip from Oldale to Littleroot was a short one, it was also very dangerous.
"C'mon mom, we're almost there." Jordan pleaded to a very worn out, precautious mother. "Don't even get me started young man. It's almost dark and very dangerous out there. We'll stay at this inn then leave early tomorrow morning."
Holy cow. that story looked a lot shorter on my iPod, but i finally managed to get it done. please comment as I wont post the next chapter until i get at least one, cause i think the next one is longer ...
