"You ready Kari?" my dad asked handing me my backpack. I smiled at him.

"I'm always ready!" I said then blew my whistle and my Cydaquil was next to me. I picked her up.

"Be good and make sure Flame here doesn't get to roughened up," my dad said petting his Typhlosion. I smiled again, "Don't worry! Me and Flame will be fine!" I ran out the door and on to the path that lead to the next town.

"First adventure and we'll possibly be making new friends! Won't that be fun Flame?" I asked Flame. She nodded. I smiled and ran faster. Then I suddenly fell down a hole and landed on my butt.

"OW! What's this doing in the middle of the path?" I looked at Flame.
