Asa did all he could to comfort the poor Pidove. In the end, they both agreed to take the baby Pokémon to the Center. They were professionals, and they would know what to do.

When they got there, they got a nurses attention, who assessed the condition of the Pidove, and got their names and what track they were in. Nurse Rosemary took the Pidove to the back, then came out a few minutes later with another nurse named Joanna who offered to show Tim the Egg Ward. Tim’s eyes lit up. This wasn’t what he was expecting when he came here, but he was excited to see some eggs, and maybe some cute baby Pokémon while he was there. After they reassured them that Pidove would be ok, Tim took up the offer. 

Tim followed Joanna down the hallway to the Egg Ward. The room was different from the rest of the sterile center. The walls were colorful, and images of cute Pokémon were depicted on the walls. It was designed to be appealing to baby Pokémon. 

The most important feature was all the eggs that were being cared for. Each one had a reason for why they had to be there. Tim felt bad them as Joanna pointed them out. He hoped these eggs would hatch into healthy baby Pokémon one day.

Then they came up to a large gold and red egg. Joanna explained that egg had been in the ward for a while, and it would not hatch. No one knew why the baby didn’t want to come up. Joanna explained that Pokémon can actually hear what’s going on inside the egg. He had read about that theory before, and decided to test if that was true. He quietly approached the egg, and spoke to it softly. [color=deepskyblue]”Hey little guy… You don’t know me but um… I understand why you wouldn’t want to come out. The world can be a scary place sometimes… If I had a safe place to hide, I wouldn’t want to come out either. But… you should still come out… The world isn’t scary all the time… There are some good people in the world, and one day you can find somebody who will love and care for you like you deserve… There’s no rush though… You can take your time… But there will be people here who care when you’re ready…”[/color]

Tim sighed and walked away from the egg. He doubted it would actually do anything. If the baby Pokémon didn’t want to come out, what good would a complete strangers words do? It was worth a shot though.
