1st Struggle [video/text/audio] -- New Bark Town

[SNOW. NOTHING BUT SNOW. At least, that's all that can be seen. By this point, it can be assumed that someone has either a) left their gear on a moment too long or b) has had their gear hijacked by their brand new critter. Sadly, this is option d) . . . ]

LET ME BACK IN! IT'S FREEZING OUT HERE! [There's a distinctive whine in that person's voice. Obviously, he isn't used to leaving home without a jacket. Nor is he used to waking up with a woman in his face who is claiming to be his mom, but everyone's had that experience already...]

D-Dammit... who throws out people into the snow? Who was she anyway?

[Still, can't see a darn thing. The kid, definitely a boy, is still grumbling and he's still pretty darn cold. And -- he's picked up the gear. Hm. The kid looks pretty normal: black hair, blue eyes, Japanese? Maybe. The look on his face clearly says: IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE SNOWING IN THE SUMMER OR THE SPRING. IT'S TOO COLD FOR THIS. There was clearly too much cold around for him to notice anything missing about him. Clearly. Surely he had to be wondering where his friends were... but. Still. Cold weather. Sort of mind numbing thing here. Besides, his brother must be around. It was impossible for him not to be around somewhere.]

[Welp, new kid has nothing to do but pick up all the stuff that fell out of his trainer pack when it was thrown out with him. The entire contents of the pack can be seen scattered around him. It takes him but a moment to get most of it, especially that red and white ball. ...And that little grey puppy that's been growling at him since he picked up the ball. Kid has noticed said puppy. Puppy looks like it's debating something... Rin slings the pack across his shoulders-- ]

[--Wait. Something was missing. Something that he should always have on his shoulder.... Rin reaches for something behind him, but his hand just feels empty air. He turns around and looks to the ground and around again...… he starts digging through the snow too, just in case it was buried but… no… there was no sign of what was missing. Not even a single impression on the snow other than his footprints and that of the puppy. He ignores the dog and heads back to Mom's House.]


Oi!! Lady!! I left something in there! [knockknockkn..ock…? That’s weird. Rin pulls his hand back and looks at the door once more. Normally, a door like this would have budged, at least a little. He tried the door knob instead but that was useless too. And just as odd… He could feel that he was using all of his strength, but it wasn’t doing anything. First no sword, now he wasn’t as strong… He rubbed his bare arms, trying to get some warmth in this freezing weather.] Come on! I really need it!!

[He didn't want to think of what would happen if he didn't have it. Actually, come to think of it, nothing had happened so far. ...For that matter... -- what was up with that puppy?]

...I can feel you staring at me. I don't have time to play now, I need to get back my sword. [But the puppy kept staring. It didn't look too nice either. A little mad, maybe. Okay, definitely.]

. . . Are you supposed to be a dog? [It's an innocent question... But Rin has three seconds to regret his words. Two seconds to see the little puppy bound towards him. One second, a single second, to save himself. And he's just a second too late.]

[POOCHYENA GOES RIGHT FOR RIN'S ARM AND SHE'S NOT LETTING GO. The gear manages to land in the snow video side up as he tries (unsuccessfully) to (safely) pry Poochyena off of him.]


GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! Down boy! Down! Get off! Lemme go already!!

[And that's when he notices how much it freakin' hurts. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO HIM...]

[ Kobato immediately winces when she sees the Poochyena bite the boy's arm. She didn't know Pokemon could be like that too...! ]

A-are you alright, mister?!

M-maybe if you shake your arm as hard and as fast as you can, she'll fall off! [ And hey, she even does a little demonstration of her wildly shaking her arm up, down, left, right almost as if she were the one being bitten. ]

You are, the first few minutes with your starter and it already attacks you.

If you want to make it let go you might want to stop flailing like an idiot, it is just going to make it's teeth sink in deeper.

[ ASGHKLD OH MY GOD IT DIDN'T WORK. Kobato begins to look a bit more panicked for the boy. ]

I'm sorry, mister!! [ QUICK BOW before she begins racking her brain for Plan B while her own Pokemon come near her to see what she's fussing about.

Oh wait, an idea! ]


Ah, I know! Maybe you should play dead! In television there was a boy who was being attacked by a bear and he played dead and the bear left him alone! [ And she's completely forgotten about the part of how the boy never rose again even when the bear was gone. ]

Oh that wasn't a plan, I was just giving simple advice.

If you actually want it to let go, you'll need to calm it down or give it some food.

Even better just saw it someone else, then it will bite them.

[Rejoice Rin he's actually trying to be helpful, in his own bratty way.]

[ She can't help it though! ;A; ]

But my idea made it hurt more for you, didn't it? [ Sadfacing. She just wants to help this new boy, s'all! ] And um, I don't really remember! But it was about a boy and a bear. [ Capt. Obvious strikes again. ]

You know... maybe she is! [ At that moment her Growlithe licks her hand to be petted. Suddenly she thinks of something! Though she's still a little unsure. ] Perhaps you should just... pet her and treat her nicely and ask her to let go of you kindly? I've never seen a Pokemon really want to hurt and stay mad long enough at it's trainer ever since I've been here, so perhaps you should try it.

[Did he really just...okay then. Some Pokémon do more than throw pebbles at their trainers, it seems.]

Calm down. Give her something she'll enjoy more than your arm and she'll let go.

You could just return it to his Pokeball, you know.

Yeah, that one. It'll stop biting you, at least. [...well no, not really a chew toy...]

...Or maybe find some raw steak.

Just give her some of the food in your pack. Pokemon can eat all human food unlike regular animals.Also that particular pokemon is known for biting any thing that moves. Since she's young that will be her reponse to new things until she gets use to her surrounds, new people and you.. [ He's very helpful]

Really? [ She's a little hesitant to believe him, but when she sees that smile she feels a bit reassured. Even when it hardly looked like Poochy was the one getting hurt. ] If... if you say so!

[ At his question, Kobato immediately nods. ] Yes, and Pokemon are creatures that are supposed to be your friends in this world that'll protect you and keep you company. So I doubt it really wants to hurt you for long!

[ Seeing him softly pet the Poochyena, a smile quickly forms on her face, but it brightens even more and a huge wave of relief washes over her when she sees the Pokemon finally let go of the boy's arm. ] Uwaaa, it worked! Thank goodness!! Please don't get your arm bitten again, mister!

...I don't remember getting a sword. I don't think it comes with the welcome package.
