ATTIA
An island. Of all places, the ranger center had to be upon an island. The salty air tickled her nose as she rode the boat alone to her new school. Apparently the teachers were to welcome her with open arms. Well, she hoped so, but...she didn't want them to be overly friendly, I mean, if they wanted to be, that was fine...but...
She took a step off of the boat as it reached the dock and looked up. Yes, up. What she seemed to be staring at was a giant complex Tree-house; but it wasn't made out of wood, but steel. Granite perhaps? Quart? Something upon those lines. It seemed rather built up with technology. Something she liked at the most.
She glanced at her note again --not that she didn't have it memorized but, just in case. 'Meet the Receptionist'. The Receptionist, huh? That shouldn't be to bad, but wait! What if she was mean, what if she didn't like her, holy... she bit her lower lip. What if.....they lost her schedule and forgot about her?!
It took an hour and forty-five minutes to coax herself into the place, and when she finally did, she walked up slowly to the desk, her head bent, shadowing her face.
Hello, Attia Hanks, transfer student, she whispered.

(Pffft, Attia sounds like my inner self xDD) The Receptionist, a dark blue-green haired lady with Red eyes stared up at the girl, and smiled. "Oh, hello! Hanks, is it?" She smiled once more, in a calming way. By the girl's actions, she could tell she was nervous. "We have many new Students, so you may just want to site down for a second and watch the Pokemon."
"Oh, about them, would you please watch your step?" The woman laughed apologetically. "We have so many around here, it's easy to trip or step over one of them. I'm sorry."

Well then. After getting over her scare of the lady with red eyes, she calmed down quite a bit. Waiting --she could do that, yes? Yes, yes she could. It was one of her skills that made her herself, well, unless she got to thinking about upcoming events. Oh no! What if she didn't know anyone her class? What if no one liked her? What if she had to change schools again? She gasped.
--and watch the Pokemon. Oh, about them, would you please watch your step? We have so many around here, it's easy to trip or step over one of them. I'm sorry.
Oh! she squeaked. Pokemon? Pokemon not in their pokeballs?! she fretted, What if one tries to eat me? Wait no, the study said that most Pokemon in the world are friendly, or if not, just misguided --they wouldn't have any misguided Pokemon in the Ranger Center would they? I hope, I mean, if they must, it's their rules right? Well, uh... she raised her knees to the chair as she took a deep breath, waiting.

While the nice woman was searching through the many, many schedules, a small, lone Cottonee floated towards Attia, flapping it's little leafy "Wings" as it landed on her lap.
"Cott! Nee!" It said happily, looking up to the new Student with a grin of sorts. It jumped up and down in her lap for a second, hoping for a chance to play with the girl. "Cottonee!" [/blockquote]

Cott! Nee!
Well that was sudden. Attia flew up in her seat, startled by the sudden appearance of Cottonee, flying towards her. Slowly, she sat down, eyes wide. It wouldn't hurt her would it? Cottonee's were nice right? Well...then again, she did love Grass-type Pokemon and Cottonee was of that group.
H-hi, Cottonee...! Aw, well it is insanely cute, she reached out her hand to pet the small Pokemon, and smiled slightly as it tickled her nose, causing her to sneeze a bit. Wow, aren't you pretty!

"Cottonee! Nee!" The little Pokemon squealed in delight as it was petted. "It jumped up to Attia's hand, begging for her to continue with petting it. It was quite the happy little Pokemon, if not hyper, as it was so happy to find someone to play with.
The Receptionist at the counter giggled slightly, as she had found the girl's schedule. But she waited a moment before she announced it, so maybe the anxious girl could gain a new friend.

Cottonee was just begging for attention, it reminded her of the family lilipup back home, but this one was much more on the active side. It smelled weird though, oh well, guess everything had it's own scent --as long as it didn't bite her, she didn't want that. Arceus forbid she get sick and have to come home...what would her parents do then? She shuddered biting her lip. Well, Cottonee didn't seem rabid, and the Ranger Center certainly wouldn't keep a rabid Pokemon, right? Yes, she was sure they would not...perhaps..
No, she shook the thought away and petted the cottonee some more, it was amazingly cute. She smiled, letting her worries disappear for a bit. If only she had a pokemon now...her mother said they were tools, but lilipup was always that to be counted on, couldn't another pokemon as well?
It had looked like she had at least gained one new friend today, and it left Attia in a good mood. Pokemon; they were so different --yet so alike! She shook her head, this was one of things shewanted to understand, did pokemon have intelligence of a human? She hoped she could meet one like that. Lucario! That was one pokemon she really wanted to meet --was it true that it could talk through minds? And, there were also actual talking pokemon! She hoped that she could meet one of those here at the Ranger Center. If not, she would go on her own adventure, just to seek out those pokemon!
Yes!

The Receptionist giggled as Attia continued to pet Cottonee, who seemed extremely happy by the fact. She then sat up in her chair, aligning the papers in her hand by lightly tapping their bottoms on her desktop.
"Attia, dear, I've found it!" She announced in a sing-song voice, smiling as she closed her eyes. "Boy, it was surrounded by other Schedues! I'm sorry it took so long."

Shesmiled kindly at the Cottonee --wouldn't it be just great if she could stay here with it forever? But it wasn't so, of course, and as soon as the thought flashed through her mind the Receptionist waved her over, holding a small folder in her hand.
Attia, dear, I've found it! she said quite pleasantly. Boy, it was surrounded by other Schedues! I'm sorry it took so long.
She sighed, oh well, at least Cottonee would be around the Ranger Center, and by chance, they might meet again. As perhaps when she was a ranger, she could catch her own --how nice that would be!
Do not despair, Miss, it's okay, I had a very charming time with Cottonee. Thank you very much! slowly, she took the Schedule.

The woman smiled happily and nodded, just slightly. "I believe that your first class is... hm..." She looked over her desk and into the girl's hand, touching the paper a small bit as she peeked onto it, "History of Pokemon. Oh, that's great! Ms. Acher is one of the best teachers I know!" She smiled a little, then sat back down once more.

Thank you very much, she smiled slightly. Truth be told, she was looking forward to her new class --but it slightly irked her that she would have to be by herself. She sighed, and thanked the woman kindly --and then took a breath for her class.

"You're very welcome." The receptionist smiled, then pointed to the Elevator behind her, to her right, "You may use this elevator to get to your Dorms and Classrooms. Though, you being a Student Ranger, you are not allowed to go above the Third Floor without permission." The woman smiled once again, and waved a little, "Have a nice day!"
