Move the hell out of the way. He dashed to the side, tripping on a shoelace in the process falling face-first into some bushes as the door was slammed open from someone. [color=fdc68a]"Ouch..."[/color]He groaned getting himself free from the bush rubbing his face before patting himself down to make sure nothing else was hurting along with making sure he had everything he came with. As much as he wanted to yell at the trainer that came out like the building was on fire. He decided against it. He wasn't here to start making enemies. No, He was here for the pokemon he actually considered a friend. He dusted himself off while fixing his hair to try looking somewhat presentable before seeing Professor Kalmia at the entrance seeing everything [color=fdc68a]"uh right...Mom sent me saying someone was here for me."[/color] he spoke moving after her into the lab He was amazed to see how the lab looked and it was so lively with other trainers, research books of who knows and tons of pokemon. he was trying to wrap his head around it all before hearing Professor Kalmia introduce him to everyone else [color=fdc68a]"Uh hi, I'm Ryu VanIsis, Nice to meet you."[/color]He said to them giving an uncertain wave. he watched and took in the information best he knew how. just staying quiet and soak in the information his ears and eyes saw and heard. he accepted the items the professor gave him as well looking at them while his ears listened [color=fdc68a]"NO I am sure I got all of that."[/color]He spoke putting the items away before seeing her handing him a rolled ball. He was hoping that the thing inside was who he hoped it was. [color=fdc68a] "Alright, I hope I know how to do this."[/color] He said crouching down on the balls of his feet before he opened the Pokeball to see the creature forming in front of him. A smile grew on his face to see the familiar figure of Fennekin in front of him. The Fox like pokemon UNcurled itself from its rest position stretching before sitting up scratching its ear with a hind leg "[color=fdc68a]Fennekin...I am happy to see you again."[/color]He spoke as it took a few blinks from the fox before it immediately got up jumping at him nuzzling and licking his face in delight. Ryu fell back on to his but letting out a laugh [color=fdc68a]"I know I know...I missed you too."[/color]He said happily.
