AJ stared out into the water. It was so blue in this city. No matter how much he travelled he was always suprised at the uniqueness of each city he came across on his journey. He looked behind him at the Violet City gym where he had recently beaten Faulkner to earn his first Johto badge. He pulled out a metal case from his bag and opened it. Inside sat 16 gym badges, eight from Kalos where he was from and eight from Kanto which was the last region he visited. He smiled as he placed his 17th badge in its place, before shutting the case and retreating it to his bag. 

"Come on Justin, its the first gym. It can't be taking you this long surely." he mumbled to himself.

As he did he was the figure of Justin make his way over.

"So you finally did it huh? Took you long enough to beat a few pidgey's" he chuckled.
