Chapter 11: BLUE (1)

Chapter 11: Blue (1)

Blue Leaf was a timid girl during her youth in Pallet Town.

Her parents moved from the Unova region before she was even born.

Thus, Kanto was and would always be her home.

However, the children did not take kindly of her.

The young adolescents bullied her.

There was no inherent reason as to why.

She was different than them.

That was all.

Her name, her appearance, her heritage.

She was bullied for all of that.

Until two boys came into her life:

A raven-haired boy with crimson red eyes.

And an orange-haired boy with emerald-green eyes.

"Hey, you alright?" the latter asked with a smile, extending a hand.

Young Blue observed the owner of that hand and stared.

Stared at his green eyes.

'How pretty,' she thought.

And she gave him her hand.

Whilst the boy unknowingly received her affection.

One bite.

That was all it took.

"Eevee, stop that!" Gary ordered, trying to calm his Pokémon.

"Pikachu, you too! Knock it off!" Ash following suit.

Ever since she tried to intervene in her friends' battle, she developed a phobia of Pokémon.

Scared to even touch them.

Although the white gloves from the two boys helped her, a nagging question always whispered at the back of her mind.

'Whoever heard of a Trainer scared to even touch Pokémon?'

She never wanted to be the greatest Trainer in the world nor a Pokémon Master.

She just wanted to explore the world.

But to do that, she had to be a Pokémon Trainer.

And so, she shoved that thought away completely.

Around 3 weeks had passed since the trio started their journeys.

Blue had met Gary in Cerulean City.

She recounted how much fun Pokémon Battles were.

Thinking back to her Gym Battle against Brock.

All the while petting Eevee on her head.

This did not go unnoticed by Gary.

Eliciting a smile towards her.

A blushing mess the girl became.

Reaching Vermillion City, Blue decided to one-up her friends again by challenging the Gym Leader, Lt. Surge.

She did not have much trouble against the hulking lieutenant.

This was thanks to her team.

Ivysaur.

Clefairy.

Vulpix.

Although lacking in numbers, the 3 Pokémon were well-trained enough to defeat the Gym Leader, earning her the Thunder Badge.
