"Rai!" I hear my Raichu say. Everything is dark until I open my sparkling eyes. "Raichu?" I ask. I get up off of my hot pink bed. Spreading a smile on his face, I yawn a big yawn. After 10 minutes of doing my hair and putting it in two pigtails, I'm all ready to go for my journey. Knock, knock, knock! "Aura? Are you ready yet?" My mother asks me behind the door. "I'm SO ready, mom!" I yell with glee. I see my mother come in the entrance to my room. The pink wallpaper and dresser outranks EVERYTHING that's in my room! "Rai!" Raichu smiles at my mother and I.
"So, Aura. Today is your big day to go to Sandgem Town to Professor Rowan's lab!" my mother states while she hands me a cup of hot chocolate. I know. I have hot chocolate for a breakfast drink. Call me crazy but I still love it! It's my thing! I take a sip of the warm winter drink, even though it's Spring. "Yep! I can't wait to see him!" I take another sip. "You know, I used to date Rowan back in high school." she tells me. I was thinking about saying: 'Wow you're old!' But that would just be rude to my mother. "Mmm...!" I swallow. "Really? Cool!" My mother nods before me. "Here's the postcard he sent you. You're going to need it in order to get to his lab safely." She hands me the card. It has pictures of three different kinds of Pokemon. One that looks like a Fire Monkey. The one in the middle that looks like a Water Penguin. And the last one that looks like a weird Grass Turtle thing. "So, which will you choose?" I keep staring at the postcard, not hearing a word my mother said. "Huh? Oh, I'm not sure yet."
I take one last sip in my mug. "They're all just so cute looking!" I respond. "Done!" I put the mug down on the table with a CLINK! "You're leaving now?" she asks as I get up. "Yup! I don't want to be there until midnight!" I put my hot pink bag over my head. It lands on my right shoulder and my left hip. "C'mon, Raichu!" Raichu and I run out the door. The wooden door shuts behind me, but I hear my name behind it. I go back inside. "What? What is it?" My mother hands me the postcard. "You forgot this." I blush in embarrassment. "Oops!"
