Madeline Gray ****** Having only just arrived a day or so ago, Maddy had tried to best to review the map several times. She was determined not to get lost today, however all her efforts went for nothing since once she left the inn she immediately found herself straying off course. Looking to the map that was drawn up by the inn keeper she continued to find herself at the wrong buildings each time. For any normal person it was a simple find, all she needed to do was follow a sign she kept passing as she walked back and forth and all around the small town.
Finally realizing this she felt her face grow hot with embarrassment, how long had she been searching anyway, had anyone seen her? The thoughts raced through her head as she pulled her books close to her chest. Great not even one day and she was already a total screw up. "Bye bye dream." she voiced quietly as she started down the trail away from the small town and toward the large building. That was it, oh how exciting! Forgetting about getting lost a few moments ago she began picking up pace and walking briskly toward the lab.
Upon reaching the door she stared at it for a moment, was she supposed to walk in? Or no, that would be rude right? Maybe she should knock! Or was there a doorbell? Taking a moment to examine the door she bit her lip and lifted her hand to adjust her glasses with the index finger. "Maybe....if i knock...then walk in....or...no maybe the bell...." sighing she glanced around to see if anyone was watching before reaching for the doorknob to see if it was unlocked, a satisfying click made it apparent that it was unlocked so she carefully opened the door. "H-hello?"
[/i] she said softly as she tapped on the door lightly with her knuckle and peeped inside the lit room.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]

Professor Winter had his good days and bad days like any other human being. Recently they had been more bad than good which was different than the first time he received the position from his cousin Sakura. He felt great today as he got out of bed right when the alarm rang, looked good and fit in the mirror, and made breakfast and left without missing a beat. He also liked the lab jacket feel today as he walked into the lab, feeling on top of the world. He suddenly walked up behind Madeline when he saw her peaking into the room and unlike other days, he did not mind today. "Like what you see?" He asked her before he opened the other door and gestured for her to go in. "I am Professor Winter and am glad to help you today." He said.

Madeline Gray ****** Being so focused on the room she had not heard him approach, as the man spoke she let out a quiet squeak and stumbled somewhat into the building. Maddy's books hit the floor, with a rather loud thud as the drawn up map floated it's way down behind them. Even with him opening the door for her Madeline had still tripped inside, the embarrassment clearly visible on her cheeks. "Oh my, I'm sorry!" she said softly and quickly lowered herself to the floor to pick up her books. Finally glancing up to the professor she cleared her throat and nodded. "Hello, I'm Madeline...I apologize for making such a racket....you kind of startled me...."
[/b] she spoke softly due to how nervous she was. He was a professor with the career she could only dream of, and she just made a total fool of herself! Madeline hugged her books tighter to her chest as she looked down and noticed a piece of notebook paper tucked away in the pages, surprisingly she remembered what it was! She had done her research and learned of what pokemon the lab had offered before she came. Tugging softly on the paper she looked at it and smiled nervously at Winter. "This is my first time at a lab, well...not the first...but the first time I've....."[/b] pausing for a moment she would collect her words. "This will be my first pokemon...so I'm not sure how it works...but...I'd really like to meet a Zangoose." she said softly, not really sure if it was the best choice or not.

pkmn professor encounter! waving away her apologies with a swift hand, the professor didn't want to hear her timid little voice. " shh. don't worry about it. just come in." professor winter also noticed the little scrap of paper hanging out of her bunch of books, but he didn't pay much attention to it. grinning, he listened to her stutter along and forget the line of her sentence with just the hint of a laugh playing at the corner of his eyes. she was quite cute, getting all flustered there. he just sat back and watched the chaos unfold, crossing his arms over his lab coat. as she finished, he didn't say anything, just picked up one of his specially bred zangoose from the table and released it from its pokeball. the pokemon looked up, first at winter, then at the trainer, and seemed to take them both in silently with beady little eyes. winter could tell that this one would be a good strategist - but that there was also something a little frightening about the way it examined them, as if highlighting their weaknesses so that it could come back and hit them just where it hurt most. a good pokemon, loyal and strong, but a little scary. nevertheless, he didn't doubt that one hour with this timid little bookworm and it would soften right up. " how's that look for you, hmm?" he said, arms still folded as he waited to see how she reacted.

Madeline Gray ****** Clearing her throat once more she watched as he released the pokemon from it's ball, her heart beat beginning to slowly race. As it appeared she blinked and smiled, "Oh! it is so much larger in person!" she said with a soft giggle and nodded. She was oblivious to the look that it had been giving her, as well as Winter and hugged her books once more. "I think he is perfect!" she chimed softly her eyes returning to the professor. "Is there any paperwork I need to fill out or anything?"[i/] she asked softly forgetting if she wrote down a note saying she did or not, darn that memory of hers.
Brushing a finger along the rim of one of her books she would await an answer before looking back to the large clawed pokemon. Sure maybe he was kind of scary, but to be honest Maddy found him just darling! Perhaps it was because he would be her first pokemon? To make matters worse for her thoughts, the only thing she started thinking of was how cute it would look with a little black bow tie around it's neck. The thought caused her to giggle softly as she began to disappear into her thoughts.

Professor Winter was just happy he could help as he put the pokemon back into its pokeball and then handed it to Madeline with her starter kit also all lined up and ready to go. "No paper works. Just enjoy and here is your starter kit while you are at it." He said as he was still in a great mood today and handed everything to the girl so she could start her journey as soon as possible. "All you need to know is that the first route is down that path." He said as he pointed to a little dirt path right of the lab where Madi can go to start her journey. "Here, and I wish you the best in your journey. Please visit back whenever you have the time!" He said as he got ready to wave goodbye to her. ::Zangoose:: ZANGOOSE level 05 • toxic boost • fe/male quick attack, leer, double kick, scratch fiercely loyal, cunning, sneaky x 1 x 1 x 1 x 5 x 3 x1

Madeline Gray *****
New Items Acquired. Pokemon ZANGOOSE Acquired.
[/i] Maddy took the items and placed them in her bag before carefully holding the pokeball and attaching it to the side of her pack. "Oh thank you so much Winter." she said softly and glanced about the lab before she would start for the door. "I will be sure to visit! Well that is if i ever find my way back here...Bye professor!"[/b] she said cheerfully and waved, opening the door carefully and stepping back out into the sunlight. Starting toward the dirt path she hummed softly held onto her books tightly. Good luck Maddy.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]
