(straying from Kevin at the moment)
Cara had arrived at Cherrygrove city this morning. Although she left her home of New bark the same time the day before, she wasn't in much of a hurry to go from town to town. She really just wanted to see the world, and get to know her new pokemon, Chikorita, better. "Chikorite," She called taking out her poke-ball, "come hang out with me!"
"Chiko-Chiko!" The small green pokemon appeared out of the ball, bouncing around happily. It hopped into Cara's lap.
Cara was twelve years old. She lived with both her mom, dad, and her little brother Joey, in New Bark town. Like someone else we know, Cara's parents were a bit over protective. They never wanted her to leave home. In fact, she kind of left without their permission. She woke up early the morning the famous Professor Elm was supposed to come back to town. She was the first one at his lab. In a couple of hours, the Professor arrived, and he gave her Chikorita. The two of them got along great almost right away. It was then that she decided she had to leave. So she grabbed her things from home and left.
Now she was sitting in the middle of the market place in Cherrygrove city. She sits by the fountain thinking about what her family was doing right now. Though she was glad to finally get away from home, she had to admit, she felt a little bit guilty for leaving her family. Esepcially her little brother Joey. Joey was always so dependant on her. He followed her everywhere, and although he was only 8, he was one of her closest friends. "Chikorita, I think I made a mistake." She sighed.
"Chiko?" Chikorita looked confused and innocent.
"Don't get me wrong, it sure is great being with you," She continued, "but, I'm worried about my little brother Joey. And my parents are probably worried sick. Maybe we should give them a call, just so they know we're ok."
"Chiko chi!" Chikorita bounced up and down smiling. Cara got up and began to walk in search for a phone.
Meanwhile, Squirtle had been running for what seemed for hours ( a mere 10 minutes) It then rested on the ground when it got to the market. It looked up seeing all the happy trainer, hugging and playing with their pokemon. That made it sad. It then looked to it's right where it saw a booth that was selling some fruit. Squirtle hadn't eaten since it was hatched, so naturallly it was hungry. It quickly ran up to the booth and grabbed an apple. Just as it began to take a bit, a man appeared from behind the booth. He was very tan and bulky. He must've been the owner. "Hey Squirt!" He said nastily, "you plannin' on buying that apple?"
"Squir..." Squirtle backed up looking scared. It began to run the other way with the apple when the man grabbed it by it's tale. Squirtle began to cry loudly.
"Shuttup you little Squirt! Give me back the apple!" He fiddeled with Squirtle.
"Huh?" Cara said, walking by the booth with Chikorita. She saw the way the man was holding Squirtle and decided something had to be done. "Uh...excuse me...what are you doing with that Squirtle? Why is it crying so loud?"
"Mind your own buisness little girl." He sneered continuing to fight with Squirtle.
"Hmph," Cara was beginning to get angry, "I think you better let go of the little guy now. Kay?"
"I think you'd better run along with your other litte girlfriends before I give you a knuckle sandwhich."
"Look 'muscle head'!" Cara was making a fist now. "Let go of the pokemon right now, or I promise you and your biceps will regret it!"
"This thing needs to learn a lesson, I'm taking it with me!" He said, turning around with Squirtle still in his clutches.
"Oh no you don't!" Cara turned to Chikorita, "Chikorita, vine whip now!"
"Chiko!" Chikorita shot two vine, and wrapped the man's arm, forcing him to drop Squirtle. Squirtle landed on it's feet and began to run away, still holding the apple.
"LET GO OF ME!" The man shouted.
"Hey, come back little fella." Cara chased after Squirtle. Chikorita unwrapped the mans arm and followed. Squirtle ran all through the market, knocking down stands, messing up booths, and scaring many people. Finally, it found it's way out of the market. Cara stopped as she watched it run away. "Don't go..."
Meanwhile, Kevin continues his search for Squirtle, wondering how he could possibly apologize to his pokemon. Suddenly, he hears screams from a market square near by. "What was that thing? What a little terror. Where's it's trainer." He heard voices saying. He quickly ran into the market. Everything was topsy turvy. "What happened here?" he thought. Forgetting he was still running, he bumped into a girl. "Ow!"
"Ow yourself!" The girl said, rubbing her head. She opened her eyes. "Wait, your...KEVIN?"
"CARA?" Kevin jumped up.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?!?" They both said pointing at each other. Cara spoke, "Me? I'm on a pokemon journey. What's your excuse."
"FYI so am I." Kevin crossed his arms. There was obviously some tention between the two. "Grrr, I can't believe you're here. Didn't your parents say you couldn't go on a journey?"
"That's none of your business." Cara retorted, "Wait a second. If you're on a pokemon journey then where's your pokemon? Huh, Mr. Bigshot?"
"Oh, that's kind of what I'm wondering too..." Kevin began to sulk.
"Ha! You lost your pokemon. That's pathetic. But that's Kevin always been an airhead."
"Grr, look, do you know where my Squirtle is or not-WAH!" Kevin was interupted by the man from the fruit booth who grabbed him by the collar.
"You little runt," The man said, "You mean to tell me that, that trouble making turle belongs to you?"
"W-what? Squirtle was here?" Kevin said scared yet concerned at the same time. "Please let me go!"
"Chikorita, vine whip again!" Cara ordered. Chikorita shot out vines once again, whipping the Man off of Kevin and onto the ground. Cara grabbed Kevin, "Come on, we have to run now! Come on Chikorita!"
"But Cara, what's going on here? Where are we going?" Kevin asked as Cara pulled him out of the Market place.
"Squirtle ran this way." She explained as they ran, "Chikorita and I found 'the hulk' over there trying to strangly your Squirtle. We tried to stop him and things turned ugly. Squirtle just left, so it can't be too far from here. Phew."
"(pant,pant)" Kevin caught his breath as they found a place to stop running. "Wow, a Chikorita. Hey, did Professor Elm give it to you?"
"He sure did. I was the first one at his lab yesterday." Cara smiled proudly petting Chikorita.
"heh, I was the last....that's when he gave me Squirtle."
"Wait," The two began walking down the street, while still searching for Squirtle. "the Professor only gave out Johto starters, not Kanto starters."
"Actually, when I got there, the Professor had no pokemon left at all." Kevin explained, "I was so bummed out. But then the Professor gave me a pokemon egg. So we started out to cherrygrove city, and thats when things started going screwy. My pokedex wasn't working, my map was outdated. Then this terrible storm started, and the egg almost cracked in half. We even had to run through a pack of beedrill. Then when I made it to the pokemon center it hatched into Squirtle. The look on it's face just made me want to be by it's side forever and ever."
"Wow," Cara was amazed, "It's like you and Squirtle went through so much before it even hatched. But wait, what changed? Why did it run away?"
"Well..." Kevin continued, "After it hatched it became such a handful. I couldn't let it go without it breaking out into a cry, it took all the covers when I tried to sleep and it snored like a monster truck or something. I just barely got to get dressed this morning. Then, it broke it's pokeball. I got so angry, I yelled at it, and it ran away from me. So...it's my fault."
"Ha, well then...huh?" Cara was about to say something smart when she saw the sad look on his face. "then..I guess we'll just have to keep looking until we find Squirtle. Besides, I know how it feels to do something rash and the regret it."
"Really? What mistake did you make?"
"Uh...heh,heh, nothing. Nothing at all! Let's just look for Squirtle okay?"
