Ry Burst's stomach did backflips as the boat drew closer to the docks of Virbank. Part of him didn't think he was ready to challenge another league, that he needed more training. But his gut told him to ignore this negative voice and go for it. He was a mess at this point, with his stomach full of butterflies, but he was still excited, looking past the fear of failure. After a new more minutes of pretending to skim the magazine he had brought with him, he decided to go up onto the top deck, and watch. There was no turning back at this point, so he'd might as well take a look at this region for the first time. The Unova Region.
As he unbuckled himself from his seat, he walked up the metal steps leadin to the top deck, and walked outside, feeling the cool sea breeze touch his skin. There he saw it, Virbank City, the City of Falling Fog and Rising Stars. Ry had read somewhere that Virbank had a place called PokeStars Studios just up north, where movies were made. Maybe he would check it out before he challenged the gym leader. That phase, even being said internally sent shivers down his spine. It was proof he wasn't just here on vacation or to sightsee. He was here taking the Unova Challenge and he would have to be ready.
As the boat neared one of the southern ports, Ry began to notice how the entire city seemed to gave a veil of smog over it. It was a sign of productivity in some people's eyes, but Ry had to disagree. He prefered the woods over the city, any day.
Ry walked up to one of the starboard handrails, and placed his palms agains them, and leaned forward. The wind pushed his har back, and drops of sea spray splashed agains this face, instantly refreshing him. He closed his eyes and waited as the ship began to dock.
Once this ship was in port and tied down, the passengers began to file off the ship with their belongings. Ry was one of these people, and he walked down the boarding ramp with the only bag he had brought. He made a turn and walked into the port's main office, and took one of the complimentary maps off of the metal rack, and flipped it open. He eyed the map, until he found his destination; The Virbank Pokemon Center. Here he would check in and sign up for the Unova League. After taking the map, and shoving it into his hoodie pocket, the began to exit the Pokemon Center, into the bustling crowd.
