"Wake up Serena..." The small voice cooed in my ear. Turning over, my eyes still squeezed shut I groaned in response. Within moments of my response I felt a sharp beak dive-bomb my gut, flying me against the window in my room.

siting up curled over my gut I coughed, "What the hell Robin?!" I growled at my ruby feathered friend, who sat in front of me with a snide look on his face.

The small red fletchling sat atop my head, peeping his small head down into my face, "You weren't waking up." He sang quietly.

"That gives you no right to attack me Robin," I muttered as I gently picked him up from my head to look at him eye level, small golden hairs of mine being pulled up by his small talons, "Now. Lets go down and make some breakfast! Before you attack me again." I hummed to Robin.

He let out a small chirp in agreement as he flew from my hands and down the stairs, "Don't forget to get dressed!" He crowed on his way out. Shaking my head at him I walked over to my full body mirror, cringing at the face looking back at me.

The girl in the mirror had long honey colored hair reaching down to my waist, her creamy skin glowing in the morning light seeping in from the window. But that's not what makes me cringe every time I look at my reflection, no, its the parts of me that makes me different. The light brown furry Eevee ears that when relaxed, hover over my shoulders. The fluffy tail, a cream color closer to the tip, wagging back and forth. That is what makes me different.

I am part Eevee.

No one else is like me. Not just part Eevee. I mean part pokemon, no one else I know is pokehuman. I was abandon as a baby and had to raise myself. I spent my childhood trying to find a home, in Lumiose city with other humans. There the humans treated me like trash or wanted to take me in for 'tests'. That's when I realized trusting humans again would be a fatal mistake so I moved to Santalune forest to live with the pokemon. In that wooded area the pokemon treated me like a freak, they ignored me. They excluded me. Almost as bad as humans, but that's when I met my best friend, Robin. I was about the age of seven when I found him beaten and abandon, just a hatchling too.

That is when I took him in and we took care of each other. That now brings us to when I found this old house in Vaniville town, abandon like us. So we thought it would be fitting to move in! Turns out the land lord died and his very rich daughter wanted to get rid of this small house so she just let us have it. We just moved in yesterday so Robin and I are settling in.

Quickly I changed into my black high waist dress, red at the bottom, pressing down my tail to hide it under the dress. Walking over to my hats I picked up the hot pink felt hat, tucking me ears under it so that they were uncomfortably hidden and placed a white pair of sun glasses on the rim of the hat. Carefully I place in my grey contacts to hide my golden eyes.

"HURRY UP, SERENA! I AM HUNGRY!" Robin yelled from downstairs. Also I left out that I speak pokemon, I thought that would come with being part pokemon. Its only going to be natural for me to speak pokemon following that logic but actually no. I can only speak with pokemon I have developed a strong bond with. So basically only my friend, Fletchling.

"I'm coming!" I yelled back as I jammed my black high tops onto my black OTK sock covered feet, "Little piece of... bird..." I skipped down my steps to the first floor where Robin sat at the kitchen table impatiently.

Turning to look at me he shook his little skull, "Why did you have to hide your Eeveeness?"

Pulling out two ceramic white bowls from the cabinet I looked over my shoulder at him, "Incase the neighbors see me. They might freak out when they see a pokehuman." I smiled as I poured cereal into to bowls followed by spilling milk into only mine. Robin likes his cereal dry.

Freaky bird, "But you look so cute when you aren't hiding!" He tweets sweetly.

"Thanks mom..." I stated dryly as I walk over to the table carrying the cereal in my hands.

Placing them down onto the table we heard a knock at my door. Both Robin and I froze, "Answer it..." Robin whispered to me. Nodding I slowly strided across the room to the blue oak door, yanking it open ready for a fight. Yes I am ready to fight. You learn not to trust anyone knocking at your front door in Lumiose.

In front of me stood two kids my age. One tanner colored girl, her long caramel brown curls tied up into two high pigtails. Her hot pink blouse was buttoned with comically large black bows, her jean shorts flared with black lace at the end. Around her left wrist was a black hair band.

Next to her was a boy with his jet black hair carelessly tossed around, his brown eyes fixed on the sky. He wore a blue and white sports jacket, darker blue jeans tucked into black boots. On top of his head was a red hat, black sunglasses sitting on the bill. He kinda looked cute, but that's not the point.

"Who's at the door, Serena?" Robin called from inside.

I narrowed my grey eyes, "Humans..." I hissed.

The boy turned to look at me with his chocolate eyes in surprise, "Humans?" He asked curiously, "Did you just call us humans? Your human too." Well technically... Right as the boy began speaking, Robin flew over, perching himself on my hat that slowly started to tip off. Swiftly I grasp the tiny robin pokemon in my hand, pulling back my hat to look normal. Robin struggled from my grasp and fluttered onto the boys shoulder.

I gave him a look before I answered the boy, "N-Nothing. Why are you people here?"

"Because we heard you just moved here!" The girl shouted excitedly, "I am Shauna and the boy next to me is Calem!" She motioned to the dark haired boy next to her, who was scratching Robin under the chin. Robin let out some chirps of enjoyment, which horrified me that Robin was trusting a human he just met.

"We would like you to come to Aquacorde town, we'll be waiting." Calem stated as he and Shauna turned away, Robin flapping back to me. We stood there as the kids turned the brick fencing corner and away. I took a glimpsed at Robin on my shoulder, curiously.

"Should we trust them?" I whispered softly to him.

In response Robin fluffed out his feathers cutely, "Calem seems like a nice person. Shauna is a bit too exited but I think we can trust them on where we are going." Shaking my head, yes, we shut the front door and followed the path to Aquacorde town. My grey and red bird friend swooped down route one ahead of me as I casually strided down the short path.

Passing under a arch we stepped into an outdoor café like area, people of all kinds sat around at the tables drinking hot liquids. Staring starry eyed, Robin and I paced down the area to hear a voice calling us.

Shauna's to be exact.

"Hey! Hey! Over here! Yeah, new girl! And Fletchling too!" Swirling around I see four people sitting where two circular tables were pushed together. Shauna sat at the head, waving us over enthusiastically. To her right, my left, were two boys. One closest to her was a bit on the heavier side wearing a black shirt with a Vanillite print on it and some orange shorts. Next to him was a copper topped shy nerdy boy with a white shirt, green sweater vest and some black pants.

To Shauna's left was Calem who sat with his gaze still in the clouds, but the only open seat was next to him. Sighing, I stepped towards them while Robin flew from my shoulder and onto the table in the blink of an eye. Reaching my seat I slumped back, staring at me feet.

"Alright, I am here now. What's so important to take me out of my home?" I grumble, "I was pretty comfy there."

"Aw come on new girl! Don't you want to go on a pokemon journey?" Shauna wailed, puffing out her face in a pout.

Brushing my finger down Robins neck I shook my head, "No. I have spent my life traveling around and I finally found a nice, cozy home for me and Robin."

"Robin?" Calem shot a glance at me, "Is that like a brother? Most people don't refer to their parents by their first names so it must be a brother or another family member..."

"Robin is Fletchling." I glared. Family? Tch. That is so overrated.

The heavier boy spoke up, "If I may speak now. I come with three pokemon that the Professor would like you three to choose from and go on their journey." He pulled out a spherical container, opening it to reveal three pokeballs. Looking into them a blue frog laid curled up with a small sleeping bubble shrinking and growing. To the left of that one was a small fire fox with huge ears pressing its paws against the walls of the pokeball, its tongue sticking out cutely. Beside that one was a weird green and beige pokemon with small green spikes poking out from its head, who seemed to be staring blankly at Shauna, Calem and I.

Shauna bit her lip, "Ooh... There all so cute! I cant pick! Calem you pick!"

Calem held his chin with his hand in thought, "Well grass types are a difficulty to train which would make things more interesting while water has a lot more type advantages in battle and its techniques are remarkable." His gaze moved to the fox, " While a fire type has much raw force that would take time but be worth training to control." He began to reach for the small fire fox. I cant take this guy! All he thought about is type advantage of the pokemon and stats. That's not how you choose a pokemon! You shouldn't even choose, you should take what you are given and raise it as if it was your own family! Alright to this may be a touchy subject.

Before the dark haired Calem could pick the pokemon I swooped it up, pressing it against my chest, "I- Really like fire types..." Calem just shrugged and picked up the blue frog. With nothing left to choose, Shauna wraps her fingers around the grass type pokemon capturing system.

"Hey! New girl!" Shauna yelled, "I forgot introductions! The one next to me is Tierno. He is a wicked dancer but could work on his trainer skills. The orange haired one beside him is Trevor! He may seem a teensy bit shy but once you get to know him he's pretty cool! And I couldn't catch your name. I heard what your Fletchling's was."

"I never said my name, but if you really must know I am Serena. "I huffed, "And Robin is not my pokemon. He is wild, just my best friend. Never refer to him as if I am above him." I growled my words as harsh as I could.

"But its a pokemon. Pokemon are below humans, that's the natural order." Calem waved his hand for emphasis making me hate this guy even more.

Shauna began to feel the building tension and tried to defuse the fight, "Uh... Its not really that important. We should give Serena a nickname. Maybe like Li'l S!"

"No! I think Lady S fits her better!" Tierno threw in, "What about you Trevor?"

The Copper headed boy jumped, "Y-You cant just spring something like that on someone... But what about S-Kins?"

"I like Serena." I growled, "Nothing more. Nothing less."

Rubbing the back of his head awkwardly Trevor spoke, "Um... here are pokedexs. They will help you understand pokemon on a deeper level." He handed the three of us small red Ipad like things.

"And Serena, here is a letter from Professor Sycamore for your parents. He needed a third person to take care of the pokemon so this letter is asking permission to go on a journey with the pokemon you chose." Tierno said, sliding the letter to me.

I grasp it, standing up quickly, "Alright. I'm going to head home for a bit." I said, rushing home. As I stomp down route one I crumple the letter, jamming it into the bottom of my hot pink bag, "Thanks mom and dad. I can go on a journey? Fun... I'm glad you have never been their for me!" I growled as if I was having a conversation with my non-existent parents.

Finally at my door a voice from behind me makes me flinch, "Serena."

Spinning around with my eyes narrowed, "What?" I spat. I have had just enough of humans today! There stood Calem with Robin perched on his hat. What is with Robin trusting Calem so much! It took him weeks to trust me, that just isn't fair!

"You don't have parents do you?" He said in a serious tone.

Oh shit.

How the hell could he tell? Well at least he doesn't know I am part pokemon!
