Everything will surely be alright

Backdated to April 1st!

[ The Feed comes on to Sakura sitting in the sand. Behind her, an Arcanine is running with a terrified-looking Minccino on its back. A frantic Ledian is chasing them from the air. ]

Is it on now, Kero-chan? It is? Okay, uh, hi everyone! [ She beams brightly. ] Um, today's my birthday. I'm turning twelve!

[ She looks past the 'Gear, presumably towards the ocean. ]

I might not be able to spend it with my family, but at least I'll get to spend it with all my friends here. Plus, twelve is older than eleven! I'll be able to do more stuff now. Soon, my brother won't even be able to call me a kid!

[ Her grin is triumphant for only a moment before it's replaced by a startled look when her Arcanine roars. She cranes her neck to look behind her. ]

A-ah! Toto, stop it! You're scaring Yuki!

[ She jumps up and takes off towards them, stumbling and falling once or twice. The 'Gear is dropped to the sand as her Ursaring runs after to help. ]

[ The feed comes on, a tad bit shaky, but Sakura's nowhere to be found. The 'Gear is trained on an egg. Or what is left of an egg. Beside the broken egg is a baby Growlithe, stretching and blinking it's eyes. ]

Where's Sakura-chan at? [ A Ledyba flies overhead, looking quite anxious. She drops a small blanket over the Growlithe, and the baby Pokemon makes a noise of protest. ] She's going to be upset that she missed this.

Um, she might be at work.... [ This voice is from behind the 'Gear. ] But we can take care of this little guy until she gets back...

[ The Ledyba lands right in front of the 'Gear, causing it to shake. ] Quick! Does anybody know what to do for a freshly hatched Pokemon?

[ The voice from behind the 'Gear: ] We're not really sure what to do...

[ OOC: Sakura is indeed at work, and this post was made by her Ledyba and Teddiursa. All replies will be from those two, but mostly the Ledyba. ]

[ Video ]

[ The feed turns on shakily to show Sakura, with her usual smile on her face, sitting in a patch of grass. Anyone familiar with the layout of Violet can tell that she's sitting between the Gym and the PokeMart. She has her backpack pulled into her lap and open. ]

Hi everyone! I made it to Cherrygrove, but there really isn't much there. So Kero-chan and I traveled until we reached Violet. It was a long walk, but the view was really nice, too. [ She looks towards her right for a moment. ] I was thinking about getting a job at the PokeMart. I really want to get the money to buy an egg. Is there anybody else who works at the PokeMart in Violet?

And thank you to everyone who helped me get here! [ Her smile brightens into a grin. ] All of your advice was very useful. Okay, Kero-chan, you can turn it off now.

[ The feed shakes and spins away from Sakura before turning off. ]



[ Action ]

[ Sakura is walking around Violet, exploring her surroundings. She's holding hands with her Teddiursa, who's acting quite shy and trying to hide behind her legs every time somebody comes near. It's not very effective, since he comes up to her waist. She, on the other hand, is greeting everyone she passes with a bright smile and a cheerful hello! ]
