Having finally made it Pewter City, Hanako took a moment to try to calm herself down. That had probably been the scariest experience she had ever had. What had she been thinking? She had thought she had been old enough to make this small trip, this small adventure, but was she really? Sniffing again and wiping away the last of her tears, Hanako slowly walked down the streets of the Stone Gray City. She fidgeted with her hands, looking around nervously at the other people on the street. She needed to calm down. Just calm down.
It was about then she noticed a rather welcoming sight. Not too far away in the middle of town, there was a small green space where flowers bloomed. Taking a breath, Hanako climbed the stairs to the small green space and sat down. To help calm herself, she knelt down and released her two Pokemon from their Pokeballs. In a flash of light, the two rather unusual Pokemon appeared. The first one was a small, brown, shellfish like Pokemon. Two red glowing red eyes peeked out from underneath it's shell. It was a Kabuto named Kabo. The second one appeared to be hiding inside a spiral shell. After a moment, two eyes and a dozen or so small blue tentacles cautiously peeked out of the spiral shell. Hanako couldn't help but a small giggle at her Omanyte's cautious antics.
"It's okay Omar. I'm right here." Hanako said, petting her Pokemon. Sensing something wrong, Kabo made a concerned clicking sound as he tried to climb up his trainer. Hanako smiled once again, picking up Kabo and placing the Kabuto on her head. "Don't worry, Kabo. I'm fine."
From up on this elevated green space, Hanako actually had a good view on the streets of Pewter City. There were some rather interesting people walking about today. She watched as a teenage boy not much older than her with black hair strode through the street with a purpose. He seemed to have a lot on his mind. Not far behind him, a woman with very short, white hair also walked. While Hanako was a distance away, she could tell that this woman had an air of determination around her.
The next person Hanako saw was... well, rather unusual. It seemed to be another girl, maybe around Hanako's age. The unusual thing was that she was walking with a ton of Pokemon around her. It almost looked like a Disney princess with the number of Pokemon she had around her. She was holding a Metapod, with a Bulbasaur, a Pidgey, a Nidoran... the girl looked like a regular Pokemon trainer!
