“Ahsoka dear! It's time to get up, darling!” Called the familiar voice of her uncle.
The girl groaned as she pulled herself out of her bed, yelping as she tripped over one of Shoto's toys. She let out a sigh as she went to her vanity, pulling off the silk hair cap she wore, her long braids tumbling out around her face before she pulled them up into buns, the act of pulling the white and blue braids up into her buns fully waking her up. She pulled on a deep maroon top with detached sleeves and a pair of black leggings under a mid thigh length maroon skirt before she ran downstairs to where her two uncles were bickering.
"Noi!" Called Shoto excitedly, the blind Noibat having heard her come down before launching himself at her, making her laugh.
"Yes, hello! Have you been good for Uncle Obi and Skyguy?" She looked up as the Polteageist that stubbornly refused to leave or be caught in her uncle's house brought her a cup of coffee.
"Shoto was delightful, unlike Anakin. You ready for your big day?" Asked Obi-Wan as he turned to look at his beloved niece. He was glad he would be the one to send her off on her journey, even though he wished her mother was here to see it. He would be taking PLENTY of photos for Shaak though, so he wasn't worried she'd miss anything.
"SO EXCITED! I can't wait to get to your lab and see all the Pokémon you've been breeding and get to pick one so I can beat Skyguy!" The teen plopped into a seat at the table, Shoto chirping happily as he climbed to prop himself on her shoulders with his head on hers.
"I won't be going easy on ya, Snips. I worked HARD to get to be the champion of Jedha and I won't give up easy," bragged Anakin before his phone went off. He checked the device and chuckled at the image his fiance had sent him from the labs, dozens of pokeballs ready to be given to their new trainers as they went out on their adventures.
"That would be MY cue to head out. I have to be at the lab to hand out the Pokémon, so I will see you later my dear," laughed Obi-Wan before his Espeon Prophecy stretched out of her bed to join him by hopping onto his shoulders, her shiny green coat contrasting with ginger waves. "Yes thank you Prophecy, I appreciate all 60 pounds of you on my shoulders."
The Espeon trilled and rubbed her cheek against her trainer’s and tapped her tail impatiently.
“Yes yes, I understand your Majesty,” laughed Obi-Wan before he walked out of the house to waves from all remaining inhabitants.
“Well then Snips, once you finish eating, you can head out to the lab. I need to head back to Corus, check on stuff being done at the arena,” said the sandy haired blond, “You remember the rules? Stay out of the tall grass until you’ve gotten your starter and your dex, ok?”
“I KNOW! I’m not a baby!” Whined Ahsoka, her Noibat whistling in agreement.
“You don’t get a say in this, Shoto. We all love you, but you are as dangerous as a declawed Meowth,” snorted the champion as he stood, grabbing his coffee cup to put in the sink.
Ahsoka rushed through her breakfast, going to put her plates in the sink before running to the door to pull on her boots and grab her bag. She was going to be the best! Her hand twisted the knob and out she went, Ahsoka Tano: Aspiring Pokémon Champion.
Her walk to the labs was quiet, but when she entered the building she smiled at Padme and Obi-Wan, both of their Pokémon lounging about. She would never get over the fact her nerdy uncle had a Silvally.
"Come on over dear. We'll see what we have left for late arrivals." Her uncle's conspiratorial wink let her know he'd saved her a couple options. The station he led her to had 3 pokeballs on.
"At this station, we have an Eevee, a Honedge and a Jedhan Wingull. Have an idea which one you want?” Obi-Wan gestured to the three spheres propped on the table.
Ahsoka bit her lip gently, before she picked up the ball with the Eevee, releasing it as it shook out it's silver coat.
"Well it seems our family has good luck with Eevees," chuckled Obi-Wan as Prophecy yipped her approval. "Yes dear, I know you are a proud mama. Well, what will you name him?"
Ahsoka knelt before the vulpine pokemon, chewing her lip before she said, "You're Fulcrum, aren't you bud?"
The excited cry of "VEE!" seemed to be all the assurance the pair needed before Ahsoka picked up her starter for Shoto to sniff at.
"We'll get you registered, Padme will explain battling and then you can set off. You'll do our whole family so proud." Obi-Wan pulled her into a crushing embrace before he took pictures of the new pair and went to file paperwork.
"I've got your combracer over here, so come on over and we'll get you ready to fully set out." Padme's gentle voice called, her workstation filled with red and blue rotom bracers.
The teen couldn't wait to get started for real now.
