001 [Video!]

[The video feed switches on to provide a blurred close up on someone's face. The user moves back slowly, allowing the image to come into focus as it shows a blond teenager sat on the ground, eying the device suspiciously.]

Hey- This thing even on? [A tap on the screen, the teen sighs, exasperated, before looking over to the Poliwag sat beside him.]

You know how to make this work?

[Silence.]

....Didn't think so. Maybe we just...

[Grumbling again as he shuffles in his spot, Naruto holds out the Pokegear a little further as he puts on one of his biggest, brightest smiles.]

Uzumaki Naruto, reporting for duty! Hehe. So, I really need to get home, everyone is counting on me, but the weird lady who thinks she's my Mom said I can't, so since I'm here I'm going to get all the badges and have everyone acknowledge me as the greatest Pokemon trainer there is, you'd better believe it!

[He hops up to his feet, facing the Poliwag once again.] C'mon Gama-chan! Training starts now!

[His speech is interrupted by the loud growling of an empty stomach.] Er... after we eat, that is. Does this place have ramen?

There's a lot of different ways, you'll have to see what works best for you and your team.

Me, I like to spar with them when I have the chance, but mostly I try to set them up against each other and direct them from there. But Rockets have no problem teaching their Pokémon it's alright to hurt people. I don't see why I should do any different.

I'm pretty sure it does! [ Considering they start out with bento, after all. ]

If you look around hard enough, you can find just about anything. As long as it's human cuisine, anyway.

[cakelover]

[ He does that to everyone canonically, Naruto. SORRY... ]

Obito Uchiha, ne. He's one of my friends~! Do you know him?

Ah, I'm Mitsukuni Haninozuka, but you can call me Honey!

[the_whitequeen]

I would think so ... I think someone like who had just arrived might think it is ...

I've been here two years. Or almost anyway.

[video]

[darkenedgales]

You bet we will. Better put your money where your mouth is and start training now if you really wanna try to catch up!

[Not gonna lie, he kind of likes the guy already. What's life without some competition to spice things up?]

Naruto, was it? Guess I'll be keeping an eye out for you!

[Video/filter]

[itsjustdust]

....Okay good to know. I must have seemed pretty unfunny.

[Private Video]

[believeit]

[Naruto shakes his head. He can't remember what was said between the two of them.]

He used his eye thingy on you. The Mange..something.

Hey, Sasuke. Why do you think he did it?

[Video/filter]

[believeit]

Not like you'd know. Since you don't know anything that's happened apparently.

If those Rocket guys attack, we need to be able to fight them.

[Why wouldn't you train them to fight your enemies too.]

[Private Video]

[beforethedarkness]

[He's shaking a bit as he shakes his head.]

To test his new power... That's what he said.

[A beat and he checks his gear for something, his frown worsening when he's done.]

Change of plans. Go to Celadon City when you get to Goldenrod. Stay with Riku and Sora to train and for your own safety.

[Private Video]

[believeit]

You're not in Celadon.

[i.e. he's not going.]

[believeit]

The Kyuubi was sealed in me, and he definitely wasn't a girl!

[action]

[believeit]

[Hey, Naruto would agree.]

So, you don't know anyone here at all then?

[believeit]

What do you mean human cuisine? Do they have special places for Pokemon foods or something?

video;

[timelymaid]

They actually do, but I mean you can't find any troll cuisine here; at least, not the kind that doesn't cross over with human cuisine? Which is okay, because most people wouldn't look for it!

[believeit]

[That's a pretty long name, he'll stick with Honey. At least he has a chance at remembering that.]

Honey it is then!

Oh, yeah! I mean I just met him, but we're from the same village.

I died at thirteen, course not. It's been like, 13, wait, no. That's Sasuke. You're how old? Add your age to 13 and you get how old I should be.

[action]

[notchinese]

[Her mood has kinda brought down with that question.]

No one. Everyone I know are back home and I'm worried sick for them.

[Private Video]

[beforethedarkness]

That's the point.

I'm being targeted by Team Rocket. And Bowser - the guy I warned you about - is going to try and use you to get to me, and he'll try to kill you if he thinks it'll draw me out.

[Dead serious.]

I can't let him do that to either of you. Either Goldenrod or take the ferry to Pallet Town and go from there, but either way you can't come to where I am right now.

[believeit]

Two years...

[He doesn't want to be here for two years...]

[video]

[foxfiring]

I've never been sealed anywhere. And I'm fairly confident we're from different worlds.

Re: video

[islandshore]

Yes, aliens. Crazy as it sounds, it's the truth. Different worlds tend to have their own surprises, I guess.

[nasa_dreams]

[Naruto? That sounds like- and that headband....]

Hey, do you know a guy named Sasuke?

[video]

[buckyouup]

If you think you can keep up, I'd love to.

[Private Video]

[believeit]

I don't care what that Bowser guy says, I wanna see you. I have too, after the last time..

[Naruto frowns, it's obvious they are going to disagree on this but he won't back down.]
