Karuko woke up in her parents'
house. She sighed, recollecting once
again, the happy times she had with her parents. They had
died just a few
months previously. In their will, they left practically
everything they
owned to their only daughter, Karuko, as both her parents, as
well as Karuko
herself, were single children. She got dressed and made
breakfast. Karuko
was lucky that her parents had paid the mortgage off on the
house, or she
would have had to go to work. Luckily, the money that her
parents had left
her was adequate to supply her for about 6-10 months. She
ate breakfast
quietly, thinking about what she would do today. Today was
the day that she
would leave Cerulean and try to build a new life. She
figured that there
were too many bad memories here, so she decided to leave.
She also figured
that the best thing to support her in the meanwhile would be to
become a
traveling pokemon trainer. She, however, did not care to
become a pokemon
master, because she felt that wasn't her life's calling.
"Vulpix!" called a voice from under
the table.
"Hi, Volcano! How are you doing
today?"
"Vulpix, vul!"
"Fine? Well guess what we're doing
today. Today is the day we start
our search for a new life..."
"Vul..." said Volcano reluctantly.
"I know you don't want to leave.
Neither do I. But there are too many
bad things that have happened here in our lives. It's time
to move on."
"Pix..."
Karuko finished breakfast and got ready for
her journey. After about 30
min., Karuko was ready to leave.
"Come Kazan, our new life awaits."
The Vulpix quietly followed her master out the
door and south of town.
As Karuko was leaving Cerulean for possibly the last time, she
said,
"Goodbye my home, but it is time to move on." She
then spotted a sign that
said, "The Pokemon Detective Agency, for all your detective
needs"
"Heh, they look new, but I doubt they
could last more than a few
months," she said, "with the abundance of Rockets in
the area..."
She continued on and left Cerulean for
Saffron.
