It has been two days since the announcement had been made. Today is the big day. July 5th. With some more persuasion from Mr. Tyson and a few of the regulars of the store Clyde decided it would give it a try. Becoming a Pokemon is something he had on his mind for a long while now. But never took the extra step needed to reach that goal. Clyde had put a lot of thought into of the possibilities given that he will not find here in Vaniville Town. For insist more hands on experiences. Seeing actual monuments instead of in books. To be able to taste new types of food. Just thinking about the food part made his mouth water.
Since yesterday when he finalized his decision Clyde read through Kalos Region Tour Guide book. As well as a few books on historical sites, Pokemon caring and among other books he had borrowed from Mr. Tyson other business. The book store. He had a lot of free time on his hands. Mr. Tyson told him not to worry about working. If also told Clyde if things don't work out his job will still be available for when he comes back. If he doesn't come back after a week then his position will be given to someone else. Clyde felt partly saddened by the fact but he knew the old man didn't mean any harm in it.
When Clyde got bored of reading he went through a few of things and sorted them out across his bed. His bag open ready for items to be placed inside. Clyde didn't own much. Just a few outfits, hygiene stuff, a few note books, pens and a few random items. Realizing to how little he had Clyde decided to pack everything into his bag. If he has too he will go an buy a few things or in turn get rid of the items he didn't need. Clyde glanced over at the clock. It nearly noon. He better get going. The walk to the south entrance of Santalune Forest is roughly an hour walk from here.
Clyde checked his wallet glancing at the little cash he had on hand. Enough for a meal or two. His bank card was also neatly seating in it's spot in the wallet. He slipped his wallet into the front pocket of the bag. Taking one last look around Clyde attached the bag around his waist. Grabbed the borrowed books before locking the door behind him. The landlord is giving Clyde a year. A year for him to call this place home whenever he chooses to visit Vaniville Town. When the year is up then the place will be rented out for a new tenant. If Clyde chooses not to return. Thankfully Clyde has people looking out for him. Since anything can happen in the near future.
Clyde made his way quietly to the coffee shop. No one was around since it was Thursday. Mr. Tyson comes in later in the day. Thursdays mornings is when Mr. Tyson runs around doing earns for the store. Clyde placed the books back on the selves before slipping out the back door. Clyde found the path that looped around Aquacorde Town. Aquacorde Town is located in between Vaniville and the Santalune Forest. Knowing that this event may attract a lot of people Clyde didn't want to walk through a overly crowded town. Clyde walked a bit on the isolated trail. Vaniville Town fading rather quickly behind him. Soon he was on top of a hillside Clyde glanced back for a brief moment before continuing onto the other side.
Nearly two hours later...
Clyde approached the outskirts of Aquacorde Town. From what he could see in between the buildings people and Pokemon alike crowded the streets just like how he predicted. Clyde walked along the edge of town, completely avoiding going in. Santalune Forest was already in view, but the only way to reach it from here is to cross a bridge. That was when he had no other choice but to enter town. Clyde ducked into an alleyway, stepping over fallen over garbage cans and trash that littered the ground. Clyde peered at the light on the other end of the alley. Within a matter of seconds he stepped through the opening. As he did so someone nearly ran into him as she ran pass him. Luckily Clyde was able to take a step back before impacted. The streets were certainly crammed full. There were a few tents set up as farmers, peddlers, and other business attempted to make some cash.
Clyde nosed twitched at the small of roasting food. His stomach rumbled with hunger. Realizing he hadn't eaten anything today. He looked around but all the food stands were too busy for him to want to approach. He clicked his tongue in annoyance. Thinking maybe he should have stayed in Vaniville Town.
