I like a good beer buzz early in the morning And Billy likes to peel the labels He shreds them on the bar Then he lights every match in an oversized pack Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers before blowing and cursing them out And he's watching the bottles of Bud as they spin on the floor
Against the hot afternoon sun a young African American woman danced to the beat of her own music. An MP3 player, because it was cheaper than most other music players.
The gentle rhythmic beat of Sheyl Crow's 'All I wanna Do is Have some fun' was perfect for a day like this. To anyone else, she looked like a loon. Sidestepping and twirling around as she paused in front of the Lab doors. Reading several gold plaque's on the side, listing all of the names of the Professors. There were even some Aide names scribbled on there, as a side note. That might be important for later.
There was an inner pocket located in her jacket, hidden from view until now. A hand sneaking inside to pull out a notepad, a red glitter pen snuked tightly inside the rings as she wrote down the names.
'Professor Black...
Professor Willow...
Professor Syl...
Professor Sakura...'
She thought each name out as she wrote them down, adding a fancy spiral for each capital letter. Like poetry in motion, but she never saw it as anything special. Honestly, she thought her handwriting was sloppy compared to others. Sneaking the notepad back in her jacket pocket, she entered the building without bothering to knock. It was a Public building, so why bother?
"All I wanna do....Is have some fun..." Mary Jane began to mouth the words, her voice barely above a whisper as she walked inside. It was a huge lobby, bookshelves laced the walls along with computers. A perfect place for research, but there were other areas as well. It didn't seem like a good idea to risk getting caught when she knew next to nothing about the building. She sighed, picking up a nearby chair next to one of the computers and sat down. Thinking the situation over as she stared idly into the empty space around her.

One of the newer assistants heard as the Labs doors opened, she quickly walked up to the front and saw Mary Jane. She smiled and greeted the girl. "Are you here for your first pokemon?" She asked smiling. "I'm Ms. Clarke. I'm an assistant here." She added holding out her hand. "You are?"

It would've been hard not to notice the bright, young, vibrant new assistant that entered the room. With all of this empty space, even the dust was caught by her eyes. Getting up with an outstretched hand, she gave Ms. Clarke a firm handshake.
"Mary Jane, future Pokemon Trainer." She returned, trying to keep things as formal as possible. There really wasn't much left to do except allow this woman to lead her to the room with the Pokeballs. Wouldn't she need a Starter Pack too? Hopefully those things weren't full of junk, that was the last thing she wanted.
"So what kinds of Pokemon do you have here? I'm looking for something unusual, but fun." She didn't even know how to describe what she wanted. At the moment, she knew nothing about Pokemon. They were like pets, right? Feed them, water them, give them baths. Or like a child, as some people think. Well, all she knew was that Pokemon Trainers made a lot of money. And she had quite a bit with her already, so she assumed that things would be easy for her. 'Yep, I got it all in the bag. ' She thought confidently as she imagined what her dream Pokemon would be like. They had types, right? Maybe something that was a mix of types. Could a Pokemon have more than one type? Lots of questions rolled through her mind as she anxiously awaited the 'treasure' room.

Miku was in the other room sorting more papers. Every time a new trainer came papers had to be done and that was that. Filing, sorting, computerizing, and more filing. Why did she always do it? Because she was an assistant, she was told too, she liked to read it for information on the new trainers to give to Team Death if needed, and she was tall enough to reach the containers on top. Oh, and she was one of the older assistances, there for more "trustworthy." Don't make her laugh.
The doors of the lab opened and her hazel eyes spotted a woman walk in. Thank the lord, it isn't a teenager! She felt like dancing herself. Just about every trainer she seen was a cruddy teenage, what could adults not be trainers too? She set down a small pile of papers and was about to leave to help the soon to be new trainer but the new assistant beat her to it. Ms. Clark or Clarke or whatever. She gave a small scowl but decided to watch how she did. A hand shake? Talk about formal meeting. You probably won't see her again girly, no need to get all into the introduction.
Come on, talk about the pokemon... That's what she came here for. Still her thoughts weren't going to happen. She frowned. Some first job this girl was doing. Time to intervene. "Ms. Clarke, I think one of the professor's are calling for you." She spoke, just loud enough for Mary Jane and the new assistant to hear. "I'll take over for you." She walked out of the filing room and closed the door. She approached the small group with a smile. "Miku Hatsune, assistant. What can I get for you?" She pulled out a paper from her pocket and unfolded it. "Here are the list of starter pokemon, in order by types. Feel free to ask any questions about them"

"Alrighty then." A strange face came on as soon as the Assistant she was becoming familiar with went away. Funny how things worked out, just as she was getting comfortable, now she had to meet another stranger. Well, this had its good points.
"Well, that's short and sweet." The woman laughed at Miku's sudden and blunt introduction. Everyone around here must have been busy, but it ran smoothly. "Just call me MJ." She added, for the other woman's reference.
Mary gave Miku a light smile as she took the papers in her hand, her eyes widening when she realized just how many Starters were on the list. Then there was the gut wrenching fact at the amount of 'cute Pokemon'. Already, she could see a bunch of little kids fawning over the Electric types. Teenaged girls were probably falling in love with that foxy little one, and the bunny as well. Then there were some that were just plain odd.
But, she had to say it now. She felt something special when she looked at the pictures of the Grass Pokemon. She remembered seeing a bunch of Vileplume when she was a little girl. Deadly, but beautiful. Shame that she had no idea that they evolved from an Oddish, or she would've asked for one right away.
"I think I'll be just fine having that Lotad around. I just hope its not as short as it looks. " She faked a sigh as she handed the paper back to Miku. Well, if it was that short, then she'd only have to try and evolve it. Hopefully it wouldn't turn out to be as ugly as some Pokemon did when they evolved.

She gave a small smile at the thought that MJ, as she called herself, didn't take a super cute pokemon. And on the plus side, a grass. So she wasn't alone for taking a grass starter after all. Who would hold in a smile for that?
Miku gave a short nod and took the paper back. "Male or female please."[/color] She called, already heading to the back room from the pokeball. She'd grab both just in case though. Coming back out with the pokeballs she set them on the table. "Would you like to see them out of the ball before you make your final decision."[/color] She'd wait for an answer before handing her the pokemon and starter pack.

The future Pokemon trainer blinked a couple of times at the question. Gender actually mattered? Oy! Well, this saved time for that last second fight with the animal to see if it had a penis or a vagina. (She always let the professionals do that) No room for claw marks on her precious skin!
"I'll have a male. Not in the mood for some PMSing girl at the moment. " She giggled to herself as her attention went straight at the Pokeballs. There were so many of them lining the shelves, possibly rare Pokemon as well. But why would they give out rare Pokemon to newbies? That was a stupid rule. She could only assume that everything in here was pathetically weak and stupid. That's how business worked, saved all of the best Pokemon for the Professors and rich people.
'This girl is pretty good. Naturally she knows that I would be suspicious of anything for free. Maybe she's deeper than I realized...' MJ thought it over for a couple of seconds before shrugging it off. Not in the mood to go so far in a single person's feelings, or their history for that matter. Not unless it was for some kind of personal mission.
"I'll be fine. Even if it is weak, I'll whip it into shape." She added with a shrug, resting her hands in the leather jacket pockets. Her dark eyes remained curious of whatever mysteries inside of the Pokeballs, honestly, she felt like a little girl again.

Miku nodded once more and picked up the male Lotad's ball. "Here you go, I'll be right back with your starter kit." She turned away and walked over to the cupboard in the corner and pulled out a case then she walk calmly back. "Here you go. Have a good and safe journey." She gave a short bow before turning back to the filing room. You get a Lotad!Name: --- Level: 5 Gender: Male Attacks: Astonish, Growl, Absorb Personality: --- Also a starter pack!Pokéballs x6 Healing Potions x2 Pokédoll x1 Pokédex x1 Room Key for two nights at the Poké Center Ribbon Case
