A long time for this... Augen had been waiting a long time for the day he would finally get his first pokemon... And indeed, a long ride it was, as he pedalled on his bike through a long trail, passing through forests and even another town... Indeed, when he entered New Bark Town, he was quite tired, and the summer's heat was not helping at all. "Hah... Finally... I made it... Alive..." Thump!
By the time Augen had woken up, it was raining... And so he slowly pulled himself up from the wet ground... Good thing he fell on concrete. "Can't... Give up now... Must... Get what I came for..."

"I have finally finally arrived to my new destination. This is the town of New Bark, where I will start conducting my new research on Team Rocket..." Raul mumbled to its recorder. "I might find evidence of what is going on in the Johto Region..."
He cleaned the sweat out of his forehead and took off the gabardine. He had been behind that bush for a while, now.
"Just make it snappy..."

Augen stumbled around a bit, looking around obliviously... His senses and mind were jaded by the heat, as well as the long trek here... And so, he wandered around town, covering much of the area more than once before eventually seeing the professors laboratory. "'Bout... Time I got here," he panted before a bolt of lightning and he burst through the door to the professors lab.

"Trainer seen entering the Laboratory of Professor Elm... must investigate this. PErhaps this one trainer will be able to help me in the investigation."
Swiftly, Raul sneaked to the back of the building, quickly climbing up a pile of boxes.
"From here, I shall be able to hear everything."

Then came the voices from inside the lab... Very distinguishable, if not by tone then simply by context. What's more, it sounded like there were only two people in there.
Panting, one of the voices spoke out. "Heh... PROFESSOR! At long last I have arrived! I am here to claim my FIRST POKEMON!" There was a pause before a rather curious reply came along. "... First pokemon? But... Aren't you a little old for that? Most kids come here when they're a few years younger." "My mom wouldn't let me bike here on my own until I turned 17... But regardless, my day has finally arrived!" "Well, I wish I could help with that, but... We're closed." "... What?! Do you know... What kinds of hells I've rode through... ALL ON MY OWN... just to get he--" "Alright! Alright! Please, just take one and let me finish packing this stuff up!" "Thanks professor! I knew I could count on you!"
Then there was silence for a few moments before the boy walked out the door and back into the rain, carrying something small and green under one of his arms. "Well, that worked out well! Right, uh..." "Chico..." "... Shinme! Fits your personality perfectly."

"The professor is packing some things..." Raul said to the recorder. "And there is a new trainer in town... It makes me wonder how this will turn out..."
Quickly, Raul climbed down and hid behind a signpost, observing the trainer's moves. The rain covered his tracks.
"A Chikorita..." He mumbled.

Augen had no clue that he was being watched... Shinme, on the other hand. "Brrreeee... Chico! Chico!" "I know, I know. I'd miss the professor too if I were in your shoes." "Nnnnn... Chicooooo!"
And so, Augen and his new companion walked torwards the spot where his bike was... Wait, WAS?! "Huh?... Where the hell did MY BIKE GO?!!" He began looking around, checking behind bushes and other such places. "C'mon... Ya gotta be 'round here somewhere! Oh jeez, mom's gonna kill me... Well, there's only one thing left to do... Someone 'round here must've stolen it... So I'll search this town to the bone until I find it, and then I can steal it back!" "Chicooo..."

Raul facepalmed. The boy had just lost his bike? ...
"My doubts have been raised whether this boy is worthy of participating in such a dangerous mission..." Raul commented to the recorder. "I must try to help the trainer so I can find out. Time is of essence."
Raul got up and hid the recorder, approaching Augen.
"Hello, is anything troubling you?"

Augen spun torwards the officer, looking alert and then seeing that, whoever this person was, they did not seem to be malicious. "Oh, uh... Well, sir... Have you seen anyone around here with a small bike, around yea high, crudely painted black with a sort of rust-colored snowflake pattern? I left it here just a moment ago, but I didn't think I would need to worry about it in a small town in the rain... Boku wa baka desu'ne, eh," He asked, laughing a little at his own foolishness.

Raul eyebrow twitched at the last few words.
"Sorry, but haven't. I might help you find it, though." Raul took a Pokéball from his waist and threw it. "Mightyena, find the bike's tracks and see if you can find out what's going on."
The Mightyena instantly started searching, allowing Raul to turn o the boy.
"So, what's your name, kid?"

"Augen... Uh, Augenstein Rovde," the boy replied, timidly. "I biked here from Violet City to get Shinme here..." "Chico." "... I had no clue that anything like this would happen... But it did nonetheless." The boy sighed, puting his pokeball back into his pocket. "... Thank you so much for sending your pokemon to help me. I doubt that I could find it on my own."

"Augen it is, then." Raul said, just as Mightyena started growling. "Oh, did you find the missing object, Mightyena?"
The Pokémon nodded and entered an alley.
"It would be best to follow him." Raul added, following Mightyena.

Augen looked over curiously and said, "Hmm? He found something already?" Then he turned and silently followed the two of them, wondering if the mightyena had found anything that would prove helpful.

“Seems like it, my friend.” Raul answered, raising his hand towards a box in the alley, hidden by the trees. “Mightyena, use Body Slam to break the box!”
“Might!” The Mightyena replied, slamming the box to pierce it apart.
“Maybe, that’s your bike?” Raul added, pointing at a bicycle that was inside it.
(OOC: Sorry if I’m going overboard with how things are happening, but I didn’t have a clue on what to do. <.< Also, I’m going to be out till tonight, so don’t count with another reply until that time.)

"... Is it?" Augen took a few steps forward, adjusting his glasses and examining the bike for a moment. "... Same model... But the paintjob is different and it lacks the various dents and scratches I left mine with... Still, I might as we--" "Chico!" THWACK!
"... Might as well walk the whole way home... I'm sure I'll be alright with Shinme here to protect me," he concluded, a red leaf-shaped mark covering half of his face. Then with a sigh he said, "Besides... Whoever took it probably already left town or has it in a garage... I guess I'll have to get another eventually."
