To the Lab... and beyond!

[Aria]

"I didn't sign up for this..."

Rather dejected and slumped in posture, Aria continued to trudge up the hill, not even caring what was up there anymore. Never in her short life had she ever had to do this much physical activi-- There. Now that she had crested the hill, the Lab came into view, and a huge grin broke out on her features. Her pace rose to a sprint as she approached the door and gave a tentative knock, buzzing with anticipation.

[Professor Gravon]

A lock could be heard turning on the other side followed by the sounds of latches unclicking hastily to let Aria in. The door swung open and an electrode greeted her.

<Trodon here, at your service! How can I help you?> It seemed to have burped.

[Aria]

"I'm here to recieve a Pokemon," she replied smoothly, inwardly disgusted at it. She just hoped that they would have the species she had her heart set on.

[PBK]

<I see,> the pokemon said thoughtfully, <Well, you're in the right place. What kind of pokemon would you like?> The Electrode hopped backwards, making room for Aria to enter. <We have just about every first stage pokemon in almost every color. The Professors pride themselves in Kantex's great selection.>

ooc|| Sorry for taking so long...I was on vacation.

[Aria]

OoC:// Quite alright. Sorry I can't get on a whole lot lately, But Missouri keeps you busy...

BiC:// Upon entering the building, it was all she could do to not gawk at what she saw; thingamabobs, doohickeys, whatchamacallits. This poor, deprived young woman had never been inside a lab.

After composing herself, she mentally crossed her fingers and addressed the Electrode. "A normal Absol, if it's at all possible?"

[PBK]

The Electrode tilted its head (...which just happened to be its whole body.) It wasn't often that a trainer wanted a normal pokemon. He thought about checking her temperature, but decided that it would be better to get her out. After all, he wouldn't want to catch whatever strangeness it was that she had if it were contagious.

He tossed Aria a pokeball.

Aria recieved Absol!
Name:
Level: 5
Gender:
Persona: Talkative (once you get to know him/her)
Ability: Pressure

The pokemon also motioned to the starter packs by the door so that Aria could pick one up.

[Aria]

She caught the ball with precision, twirling it in the air, feeling its weight and smoothness. This was what she had traveled all this way for.
Before leaving the Lab, she picked up the starter pack and gave the Electrode a small nod. "Thank you," she murmured, barely audible.

And with that, she was gone.
