He softly hummed to himself, calming the anxious pokemon in his arms, though unknowingly. He shifted her over just a bit as to free a hand to grab some things. He shoved 5 pokeballs, a blue holocaster, and a red pokedex into his bag before turning to leave. He stopped just outside of the dome and set the pokemon down in a grassy patch nearby. [color=salmon]"Now... what to name you..."[/color] He spoke, mostly to himself as he looked her up and down. With innocent eyes, she also looked him up and down. [color=crimson]"...pix?"[/color] She softly barked. [color=salmon]"Hm?"[/color] He asked, blinking. [color=crimson]"Vulpix!"[/color] She barked, again, louder. [color=salmon]"Well, jeez. That doesn't help me figure out how to name you..."[/color] He returned, raising a brow at her. She glared at him before quickly turning her nose up at him with a huff. [color=salmon]"Alright. How about this. I'll list off a few names and you tell me which ones you like."[/color] [color=salmon]"Lucy?"[/color] Nothing... [color=salmon]"Roxy?"[/color] Still nothing. [color=salmon]"Elizabeth?"[/color] Just the sounds of people, bikes, and cars going by. [color=salmon]"Jesus, none of them?"[/color] He cried, exasperated. [color=salmon]"What about... Akira? That's my grandmother's name..."[/color] He continued, rubbing the bridge of his nose. [color=crimson]"P-Pix..."[/color] She barked, barely audible. Kai stopped rubbing the bridge of his nose and got down on his hands and knees to look at her. [color=salmon]"Akira?!"[/color] He shouted and the pokemon looked down at him with a confused look on her face. Another soft bark and then she turned her head again. However, she once again backed up to touch her back against him, this time his face. With a loud sigh, he fell back, sitting in the patch of grass with her. [color=salmon]"You're a tough case, you know that? Right? Akira?"[/color] He asked her, shaking his head. [color=crimson]"Vulpiiix...."[/color] She whined, still not turning to look at him. [color=salmon]"Alright. Well... I need to get you into a pokeball, okay? I won't keep you in it, but I just need to make it yours, okay?"[/color] He told her, getting out his bag and pulling out the first pokeball he found there. Trying to remember how other people had worked their's, he fumbled with it before accidentally hitting the button that made it bigger. He jumped in surprise and dropped it, hitting poor Akira on the head. Soon, she was enveloped in a bright red light. Kai's eyes went big. [i][color=salmon]Definitely didn't mean to do that...[/color][/i] After one click, it opened again and Akira appeared, glaring at him. In one swift movement, she was on top of him biting his nose. [color=salmon]"Hey, hey. I'm sorry, okay! I'm not good as this. OWWWW. JESUS. STOP AKIRA."[/color] He yelled, pulling her off of his face and into his arms. He pulled her into a hug and began to hum softly, hoping it would calm her back down. [i][color=salmon]I suppose that will have to wait for a bit.[/color][/i] He sighed and leaned up against the tree, still humming to his small pokemon. Soon, they were both asleep, Kai leaned against the tree with his mouth wide open and Akira turned belly side up in his arms, her mouth also wide open.
