The teenager, walking out of Willow's laboratory with her hands in her pockets, looked out to the strange and new town before her. Beyond this place, there was the whole new world, full of adventure and possibility. The girl briefly thought of what laid before her, squinting her eyes in the sunlight. Shaking the hair from her face, Rory Ross dug her hands deeper in her pockets, lengthening her stride away from the doors of the lab.
Where am I supposed to start? That was the biggest question to come to mind. Being new to the whole Trainer-buisness, the only things Rory had to go off on were battles she had seen on the television, or brief articles in Trainer magazines. Weren't there gyms to go to? She didn't think she heard that Kyozon had gyms. The girl sighed to herself, making a note to figure things out in this region. After all, if she was shooting for the League, it was best to know what you were supposed to do, or where you were to go.
Rory looked behind her, pausing in her tracks, as a small silver Pokemon with big blue eyes gently bumped into her. The Aron looked up at her, blinking, and gave out a little call from her heels. Even though he was only recently hatched from an egg, he seemed rather happy and eager to follow his new mistress. The girl's lips twitched into a small smile, and she squatted down on the balls of her feet to pat the top of it's metal head.
"I've never seen one like you before," she said quietly to him, running her fingers over the top of his metal shell. The Aron wiggled under her hand, joyous for the affection. Her smile widened a bit. "... but it seems you're a good-natured little fellow under all that armor. I wonder what you eat... or what your name is. I'll figure it out soon."
There really was only the possibility of learning. The girl looked around the street, scanning the area with her eyes for any activity. Perhaps that might lead her into a direction? She didn't know.

Galnok strolled along the streets of turnstone looking for something to do. Zubat flew above him just a few feet and for once it wasn't causing trouble. He he opened his mout wide letting out a yawn. He then sighed, "Zubat, do you have any ideas on what we ca- scratch that. You're idea of fun involves causing trouble." It Screech in delight thinking of the fun and trouble it could cause."
Just then galnok caught sight of a familiar pokemon that he hadnt seen in close to three years, an Aron. Seeing it made him reminisce about the Hoenn region where he grew up. Not being able to help himself he rushed over to have a conversation with the person that was with the aron, thining that she was it's trainer. "Is this aron yours?" he asked with a slight smile on his face.

Rory heard the clattering of footsteps, and she slowly turned her head upwards. The brown-haired boy towered over her, smiling down at her. The quiet little serene smile on her face fell to more of a flat line, her expression turning calculative.
"Mm, yes," she mumbled. "He's mine." Goodness, she sounded quite social today. She stood up straight, and realized that this boy had a few inches on her. She stuck her hands in her pockets and tossed her brown hair out of her face, before she noticed the Zubat fluttering around this other Trainer. "My guess is, that Zubat is yours as well..."
The Aron turned, looking at the new trainer with a curious tilt of his head, before his round blue eyes fixated on the Zubat as well. This was new, and quite interesting to the tiny little Steel-type, and he watched on in complete fascination.

(ooc: sorry for posting out of order. I was hoping to finish writing before Rory posted again.)
Omnes and Ransom were returning from the sandstone cave, pretty satisfied with their new companion. Making his way home, the two noticed a girl walking out of Professor Willows lab. Will you look at that. Omnes thought to himself. There are a lot of trainers coming out recently. This town may end up becoming a major city in the world! Just as he was making a turn on the street, Omnes caught a glimpse of the new trainers pokemon. “Is that what I think it is?” He muttered to himself. Piplup looked at his trainer and gave an intrigued stare. “Piplup?” Omnes gasped with excited, “Oh my goodness, it is! It really is!” He picked up his piplup from his shoulders, carried him in his arms, and hurried to the brunette trainer. Around the same time a trainer with a zubat walked up and started a conversation with her. Running up to them he gasped out and apology. “Oops, sorry if I interrupted, but is that your aron?!” Ransem was a bit shaken from the sudden run in his trainers arms.

Galnok quickly saw the expresion change on the trainer's face. "Umm yep this is mine. She is a bit of a pain so I apologize ahead of time if she causes any trouble," He thoughtfully gave a half smile to his zubat before looking back at the girl. Even if zubat was always going to love to cause trouble, he would still stick by with it.
The bat pokemon was taking in the femal trainer the the Aron with quite screeches. It was fascinated with the sound that was bouncing off it's metal skin. It flew in close to the small pokemon to further investigate.
Looking back at the girl he felt as though he might have been alittle to rash in coming over and that the girl might not feel comfortable with strangers doing so. "I am sorry if I intruded on anything. It's just that I have not seen an Aron in some years." Just as he said that a familar trainer approached. It was the one that his zubat had divebombed just the other day.
(( and I totaly missed your post Omnes, and I've modified mine))

((Oh noes, that's completely fine. I would completely switch the order of my post but guh... I'll respond to you here as an "addition" to my last post~ <3))
The girl snapped around to blink at the other boy, this one having glasses and a Piplup in his arms, who didn't seem to be happy being there at the moment. She was a bit startled by suddenly getting jumped by two boys in the middle of the street, over her Pokemon... she gave a brief glance down at him before back to the one the glasses.
"Yes, he's my Aron," she repeated. Rory gave out a small little laugh through closed lips. "Seems you're popular, little guy..."
The Aron looked up at the last statement, giving her a confused blink.
(( Uh... give me a moment, por favor. I'm suddenly seeing another post slipped in there... YAY POSTING ORDER! *scrambles around to right herself out*))
"It's fine," she muttered, shrugging at the brown-haired farmer boy. "Funny thing, I've never seen one before myself..."
The Aron's eyes seemed to widen under it's armor as the Zubat fluttered down around it. The little Pokemon wiggled and called out, waddling on it's little stubby legs while it got a closer look at the Zubat.
((OMG LAST EDIT EVER YAY OMG *flips table* /end ooc chatter))

(ooc: Thanks guys!)
The trainer was taken aback as another trainer popped up beside her. “Yes, he’s my Aron,” she replied.
“Wow, I didn’t expect to see one here. I loved playing with them back in Hoenn!” exclaimed Omnes as he squatted down for a closer look. Ransem got his bearings from the sudden run and angrily peck Omnes on the hand. “Ow! Sorry Ransem. I got a little excited there.” The piplup just sternly looked at his trainer, putting his flippers on its hip. Looking back up to the trainers, he began to introduce himself. “Sorry for the sudden intrusion. My name is Omnes D. Stahl. Nice to meet you both.” He then remembered the trainer with the Zubat. “Ah! You! Nice to see you again.”
Ransem hopped out of his trainers arms and walk towards the Aron who was gazing at hovering Zubat.

"They're from Honenn region?" She raised an eyebrow at this. She had heard of it, but never been there... maybe someday, she mused to herself. Rory watched the boy squat down to look at her Pokemon, albeit with a wary eye. His Piplup seemed irritable, she noted, as she watched it attack the trainer's hand.
"Rory. Rorry Ross," she said, introducing herself with only a few short statements. She looked between both the boys. "And you both know each other? Friends?" Inside her head she wondered if the trainers were as interesting as their Pokemon companions. It wasn't fair to judge now, of course.
The poor Aron felt suddenly surrounded, backing up and plopping down on his rump, looking at everyone staring down at him. He wasn't sure how to react with all this sudden attention... "Aron?" He called, swinging his head upwards to look at Rory, before back to Omnes, who was stooped over him. He wiggled as he sat there.

"It is. They're found in great numbers in a cave on an island where Dewford town is, I'm Galnok by the way." Galnok smiled cheerfully for a second before looking at the other trainer and then looked back at the girl, "No, we're just aquaintance." He then looked down at the Aron, " Is it your first pokemon?"
Zubat was also startled by the piplup's arrival and gave off a screech. It lost itself in thought trying to come up with a new way to entertain itself. It was so deep in thought it forgot the world around it.

Ransem noticed Aron’s discomfort and tried to become friends with it by making conversation. The girl introduced herself as Rory Ross; the boy with the Zubat said his name was Galnok.
“Yeah, we are just acquaintances. I more or less just got to know his Zubat more than him,” chuckled Omnes nervously. “Its good to meet both of you. You’re the first ones I officially introduced myself to here in Turnstone.” The Zubat made a sudden shriek when it noticed Ransem nearby. “Oh, almost forgot. That piplup there is Ransem, my starter.” Upon hearing its name, the piplup faced the two other trainers, put a flipper on its side and the other to salute them both. “Piplup!”

"Ah..." The girl blinked. It lived in caves... that was interesting. She wondered how Professor Willow had gotten the egg then? "I'll admit, I'm a bit new to Turnstone as well... And technically he's the first that I can call my own. I have yet to decide on a name for him."
She watched the Aron gently prod at the Piplip, smiling with his eyes. He called softly, shyly, but looked up when Ransem's attention shifted towards all the trainers, and gave a very human-like salute.
Ransem's action made the girl actually giggle, quite uncharacteristic of her. "Good to meet you, Ransem. You've got quite a personality, I can tell..." While the Zubat seems to be a bit of a space-case, she noted silently, giving the Zubat a slanted smile. "Galnok and Omnes... both interesting names. It's good to meet you. I guess everyone's strangers here..."

Galnok's mind was still thinking about all he knew about Arons, "Amazing pokemon Aron. They're resilient to most types of attacks, even powerful dragon type moves." He finaly noticed what he was doing, "Ah sorry... again." He chuckled to himself lightly with small closed smile. "It's nice to meet you both aswell." Galnok looked down at the pokemon and was glad to see Zubat wasn't up to no good... yet, there was always a yet with her.
Zubat was still off roaming it's mind for ideas , but was having no luck at all. It finaly settled fr enjoying the noises that bounced of the Aron's metal armor. "Scree~" It gave off happy screechs every now and then. Galnok smiled to see that Zubat was happy. "Well it seems they all get along well."

“Well look at that, they are getting along haha,” chuckled Omnes, standing up again, letting Ransem gain some new friends. He turned to respond Rory’s comment. “Yup, this region is completely new. I hope they can establish gyms and the League sometime soon. That way trainers can register in.”
That way, I can continue my dream, test my skills and knowledge to become the best in Kyozon. No, the best in the world! Omnes felt a slight grin grow across his face. Then another thought crossed his mind. “Hey, I hope you don’t mind me asking, but why did you guys become trainers?” He wanted to know what the others thought about becoming a trainer.

The girl studied Galnok for a moment, taking in what he started to ramble on about with a look of amusement on her face. She could see the boy's enthusiasm. "For being so small, I'm surprised... but I guess we'll have to see on that." It really seemed like both boys knew quite a bit about her Pokemon's type. She would steal glances every now and again to the Aron, who seemed more than content to prod at the Piplup with his head.
"I became a trainer..." she trailed off, trying to think of how to put it into the proper words. Images of her brother came to mind. "I want to be able to go back home and show my Grandfather and Grey that I can be successful out here."
Aron's eyes began to become crossed, turning his head and making little cries out as the echoing bounced off his shell. He wiggled, and fell over to the side, looking up at the Zubat with a half-lidded glare.

Galnok looked at Rory as she answered Omnes's question. her pause made hi m think that there was more to it than that, but he certainly wasn't going to push the matter. He had only just met her. He then turned to look at the Omnes, "Well me, I was sorta urged to at first by my father. The thought had never crossed my mind until he brought it up actualy. I was always helping with repairs around the city I lived in. What about you Omnes?"
Zubat cocked it's head in confusion at Aron, not knowing what it had done. It land by the two pokemon, holding itself up with it's wings. It soon realized that it had let out small supersonics at the Aron in it's own delight. Zubat gave out soft short scree's in laughfter at the other pokemons misfortune.
