sleeping, like dying, delivers you from one world to the next - to rest in crypts and wake in gardens.
| Gray had already made her decision. Even if her license was rejected, even if she didn't make it, she would do it anyway. Surely it wasn't that hard to catch your first Pokemon - kids did it all the time. Of course, a random bug in the grass wouldn't be the same as one of the infamous Kalos starters. But the seventeen year old wasn't the type to give up. That's why she made the trip from Anistar to Vaniville - first step had to start somewhere. It was definitely a sleepy town; not what Gray was used to, coming from Anistar, but change was always refreshing. The breeze was relaxing, and Gray found herself lounging on a bench near a small park, arms slouched over the back wooden slats. With a bit of a groan, she leaned her head back, eyes falling shut. Despite her extremely relaxed outer appearance, her stomach was in knots. She was desperately nervous for a phone call or to see someone, anyone, in a white coat out and about with a chest full of pokeballs and one labelled "GRAY" or... something. Anything. She blinked her eyes open at the chirping of a nearby Fletchling; a small flock of the little red birds skittered past, moving from tree to tree. Finally, with a determined breath, she linked her arms through her backpack and brought herself back to standing. May as well wander in the free time.

You've got Mail!  ▼ » The icon appeared on Gray's phone as soon as she got up from the park bench, accompanied by a cute ringtone.
A text appeared:
"Good morning, Miss Finnegan! We simply wanted to inform you that a lab assistant is on his way with the Pokemon assigned to you. Please meet him in Aquacorde City- you should be joined by two more young Trainers who are also set to receive their Pokemon today. Good luck on your travels, and swing by us in Lumiose City if you get a chance!" - Staff @ Lumiose Labs
That was... on the nose. A Fletchling perched beside her on the park bench, seemingly interested by the cell phone's brightly-colored display.
"Pipi?"
It seemed that Gray now had a directive. |

| When the phone buzzed, Gray jumped; it caught her off guard to the point where the phone slipped out of her fingers. In an attempt to catch it, the girl ended up pushing it further, and it clattered across the cobblestone street with the ringtone still going. Gray's expression fell suddenly, heart into stomach, shoulders drooped. "ohhhhh dear god no," Gray worried in a high-pitched voice, stepping carefully towards the phone (as if that would help) and picking it up delicately. Slowly, she turned it sideways to see the state of the screen. Immediately she sighed in relief - the screen was okay. But now she was nervous again for the actual contents of whatever text she'd received. Hurriedly, she scrolled through it, eyes squinting to read the tiny font, and then re-reading it again to make sure she wasn't getting excited over nothing. Yes! She looked up eagerly, eyes bright, scanning the area for a lab aide. Her smile slowly disappeared as no one nearby matched the description, so she went back to the text, muttering words under her breath as she re-read it, slower this time. Ohhhh. Aquacorde. She glanced up to look out at the town gate. You could basically see Aquacorde already; it was right across the path. Glancing sideways at the Fletchling that had chirped a moment later, interest piqued in the phone Gray had in her hands, the girl smiled. "I'm coming for you next," she said with a wink, before turning on her heel and heading determinedly out of town. Not only did she want one of every Pokemon for her pokedex, but flying types were supposedly useful team mates!
