Locket ran happily to the professor's laboratory. She had always dreamed of getting her first pokemon, and now was finally her chance! Hopefully!

Recollecting her compositor, Locket walked through the doors. Nobody was around, to her sadness. The walls around contained various books.

"Hello? Professor..... Sycamore?" Locket called out. Surely someone had to be here if the door was open.

"Why yes, I'll be there later........ Listen I can't talk now, but I'll swing by around 3ish. Goodbye."

A tall man with messef up hair tapped end call on his phone. He entered through the side of the hall with a bright smile.

"May I help you miss?"

Locket gulped down a mass os saliva in her mouth before speaking. "Yes, actually I had a question. Would it be possible if I could get my first pokemon?"

Professor Sycamore blinked several times before nodding. He grabbed three pokeballs from his belt buckle and held them.

"So you want to start a journey I see." The professor turned as he released the three pokemon from their pokeballs.

Out came, in blue light, was a fox, frog, and a spiny nut pokemon. Each of the pokemon posed in diffrent ways. The fox loft her front left paw and winked. The frog had his arms crossed with a sly smile. The spiny nut had a serious face as twirled in place, finishing with a smile.

Locket took a step forwards towards the pokemon with soarkling eyes. They were all so cute! How could she ever pick just one?

"Meet Fennekin, the fire fox pokemon. Froakie, the water frog pokemon. And Chespin, the spiny nut pokemon. You may choose one of these three pokemon to start your journey off with. This will be the most important decision in life!"

Who should I choose? Locket pouted a check as she pondered. Fennekin for sure was adorable, Froakie, looked powerful, but there was something about Chespin that made him seem..... unique.

"I have decided professor. I'd like to have Chespin as my partner!"

The three pokemon looked at each other in shock. Surely they all thought Locket would choose Fennekin, seeing as almost every girl chooses Fennekin.

Froakie gave Chespin a thumbs up, while Fennekin did her best not to cry. Chespin on the other hand had jumped onto Locket. He only made it to her stomach though and was holding on as he slipped.

Locket quickly grabbed ahold of Chespin and brought him up into a hug.

"We're going to be best friend's!"

Chespin smiled happily. He felt happy to have been choosen.

"Now that you have choosen Chespin as your pokemon partner, let's give you another choice."

The professor strode over to a stair case. He beckoned Locket to follow, which she did.

At the top of the stairs was a moble table. On top of the table was two seperate cases. One had a league symbol, the other a performers symbol. Locket took careful notice of the performer's case. She had no idea what it meant, coming from Sinnoh she presumed it was a coordinators case.

Breaking her focus on the cases she looked back to the professor. "What exactly is this case?"

The professor chuckled as he pointed to both cases. "This one, is for female trainers who wish to compete in Pokemon Showcases. Showcases are similar to contests like in the Sinnoh or Hoenn Regions. This other one is for both genders to earn gym badges. Trainers who collect all 8 gym badges can later compete in the Kalos League."

Locket nodded to herself. She had always dreamed of becoming a coordinator, but now that would never happen. Looks like becoming a performer would be the next best thing. She picked up the performer's case and held it up with her right hand, holding Chespin in her left arm.

"I'd like to become a performer please!"

Fennekin, who was passing by with Froakie gave a disgusted snort. She said something to Froakie that made him exchange a sorrowful look to Chespin.

Apparently Fennekin didn't think Chespin had what it took to be a performer. But, this didn't faze Chespin one bit. Indtead he was trying to reach out for his pokeball, in professor Sycamore's hand.

"Here is Chespin's pokeball." He handed Locket the shiny pokeball before continuing. "You may keep the performer's case along with these other five pokeballs."

Five reduced pokeballs were also handed to Locket. She gave Chespin the case and his pokeball to hold as she recived the five pokeballs.

"Finally, your pokedex! This one is the most recently updated pokedex in Kalos. Please use it to record data of the Pokemon you see along your journey."

Locket nodded happily as she recived a small red pokedex. The pokedex somewhat resembled a PSP handheld, but could slide open.

"Thank you so much professor Sycamore! I'll take good care of Chespin!"

"I know you will. Have a marvelous journey. Mame good chooses." Professor Sycamore said. He watched as Locket bounded down the stairs, after putting her new items in her back. Chespin cheered out as Locket said something to him.

The professor chuckled once Locket and Chespin had left his laboratory.

What a unique pairing those two are. The professor thought. He glanced at his wristwatch before walking down a narrow hallway. This was a perfect time to go check the latest Kalos news.

The professor opened a door to his right, which seemed to be his study room. A coffee machine was rumning near his T.V. The gentle sound of the coffee dripping mixed with a light buzz from quietness.

Professor Sycamore sat on his couch that was positioned infront of his T.V. He grabbed the remote and flipped to the Kalos Region news.

It was same boring news as usual. Pokemon showcases scheduled dates, commercials of what to do in your free time, cafe's closing due to financial problems, and advertisements.

Giving a sigh, the professor switched the channel to the global new channel. He leant over to pour some coffee into his empty cup.

Fennekin and Froakie walked into the room. Fennekin seemed to have calmed down again and Froakie just seemed tired. The two pokemon walked to sit on the couch with the professor. They watched the global news together for several minutes before Froakie drifted off to sleep.

Just as Fennekin was going to suggest on changing the channel, a certain news report caught her attention.

"We're here live in the Sinnoh Region with the family of our lost princess! Sometime over night the young lady went missing! There are so far no signs as to where the princess may be. The only clue comes from a maid who works in the castle."

Professor Sycamore stared blankly at the T.V. He was sipping his coffee slowly in boredom as the news dragged on.

A maid appeared on the T.V screen, who looked panicked and confused. "I-I- I just walked in this morning, just after the sun had fully risen, to check up on the young  princess. Normally she would always be awake in her room at 5. When I noticed she wasn't there I just assumed that she was in the restroom. However when I went to cheek the restroom, I got no reply. I searched the castle and still nothing! Then I remembered several days before that there were some shady looking characters loitering outside the castle. At the the time I didn't think much of them. But now I think that they may have kidnapped the princess! That's the only logical explanation!"

A picture of the princess appeared on the screen. She had pale blue hair that was fixed neatly in a regal hairstyle.

At this moment professor Sycamore had spit out his coffee. This all made sense now! The girl he just sent off on a journey must have been the run away princess! He had to contact the authorities, now! But as he got up to dial Officer Jenny's number something stopped him.

She just started out a journey... I can't stop her now. He sat back down, letting the phone fall next to him. But it's my job to right this!...Let's see how far she can go before she gets caught. I'll cover her if it comes down to this.

"Until further investigation is done to find the princess, all flights to and from the Sinnoh Region have been haulted." The T.V said before switching to commercial.
