All that could be seen of the wiry teen was a brown blur as she sprinted up the winding gravel path leading to the Professor's lab, tripping once or twice over some rather large pebbles in the process. Abby skid to a halt in front of the lab door with a spray of gravel, eyes shining with excitement. My first Pokemon is right inside this building! The amber-eyed teen thought happily, reaching out toward the cool metal of the doorknob with a tanned hand.
It took a few minutes of fiddling with the obstinate doorknob, ("Ugh, I HATE this crescent shape!") but Abby finally managed to open the door. Poking her brown-haired head inside the lab, Abby called out a wary "Hello?"

"knock. Just do it. Close the door and knock." Bill whispered from his lit corner of the room. Today he didn't feel like hanging Teens from the ceiling, no today he would let it slide. he was rather happy, even if it wasn't betrayed in his voice. Only yesterday he had received a reply back to his letter to Pokepedia, saying that they were grateful for his proofreading, and would let him have the next set for no price at all. So they had More money to spend on their yearly two week vacation, one that usually ended in a exhausted Professor, and a few beaten down Gym-leaders.
Turning his black eyes from the girl he sighed as the Professor's voice rang out from the kitchen.
'Come on in, ignore Bill, he's just being a frump." He shouted. Walking back out of the kitchen, sudsy water still dripping from his fingers. With a sigh he wiped his lukewarm hands on his white lab coat. Glad that there had been nothing to dirty in the water. The coat was only worn in cases that it was needed, and to protect his rather expensive pants suits from harm. His cane cost more then the entire outfit put together, plus the price of his spectacles, so he loved it.

Reassured by the friendly voice of Professor Mahogany, Abby slipped inside the lab. She shot a nervous glance at Bill, but when she wasn't eaten, the amber-eyed teen allowed herself to relax and soak in all the sights and sounds which abounded in the lab. "This is new, isn't it?" Abby mumbled to herself as she noticed a small aluminum contraption that hummed in a low tone. "Weird..."
After throughly investigating all objects around her, (excluding the ones that resided near Bill-the-frump,) Abby plopped herself down on a nearby chair and waited patiently for the Professor, idly wondering if he needed any assistance with his dishes, which she figured he was washing now due to the muffled sound of sloshing water emanating from the kitchen.

"Sorry about that." The professor said as he walked toward the chair. Leaning o his cane he cast the girl his normal friendly smile. Turning his head he watched as the door slowly swung shut behind them, the doing of Bill no doubt. Bill at the moment was simmeringi n anger, hwo dare that old fogey call him a frump! What right did he have! Thats right he didn't have one!
Pausing he asked the question with the most obvious answer to strike up a conversation, and hopefully find out enough about the girl to make sure the pokemon she picked was a good match. "Here for your first pokemon eh?" Taking a pause he cast a eye at the new contraption, the pokeball polisher. The pokecenter had sent him its extra broken one, and in no time at all he and Bill had the old thing up and rynning like the day it had been unboxed.
"any ideas?" Of cours he was referring to her choice in pokemon, well at least he felt it was rather obvious.

"Any ideas?" Without wasting time, Abby piped up; "Chikorita!" The wavy-haired girl had been contemplating the breed of her new companion for days, but it had been on her stroll, (well, sprint,) to the lab that she had finally made her choice. The generally mellow personality, high defense, and strong special attack had won her over. Ignoring the fuming Bill, which she noticed out of the corner of one warm brown eye, Abby waited for the Professor's consent, a large grin plastered across her features.

The proffessor took a step back at the quickness in reply. So whati f she had ignored his other question? She had a good reason she was rearing to go. "Well alright then. Near Bill's desk is a pack pick that up while I grab the pokeball." Walking over to the plant pillar, the one highlighted in Mint green he allowed his hands to close around a red pokeball.The bottom of this one had a crescent shaped leaf with a red stem on the bottom. The Chikorita's pokeball. Making his way back to the girl he held it out, and droppedi t into what he hoped was a open palm.

((My muse has returned from the dead! (Well, kind of)))
Abby nodded upon receiving the Professor's instructions; retrieving a bag seemed easy enough. The teen turned and trod over to Bill’s desk, noticing a vibrant turquoise bag with a white smiley face on it. Aww, how cute! Abby thought to herself. The bag was heavier than she had expected; a quick peek at it’s interior revealed a map, several Pokeballs, some cash, multi-colored berries of various shapes and sizes, and a few assorted remedies for status problems. Whoa, I’m decked out! Smiling slightly, she returned to the Professor, who now held a glossy red Pokeball in one hand. He seemed to be looking at her expectantly, so Abby extended her hand as well, and grinned as she felt the cool surface of the red and white orb plop into her waiting palm.
“Thank you!” Abby squealed, reaching over to give the Professor a big hug. The amber-eyed teen pressed the ivory button in the center of the Pokeball with her thumb, watching as a small burst of light revealed her new Chikorita. “Oooh, she’s so cute!” Abby gushed, bending down on one knee to stroke her new partner. Chiko! The little green Pokemon chirped happily, peering up at her new trainer with big red eyes. <Hi there!> Giggling, the teen picked up Chikorita and cradled her in spindly arms. “Thanks again Professor!” She called before heading out the door, tripping only once on the welcome mat while departing. Now the next problem to face; naming little Chikorita.
