[INCOMING CALL FROM PROFESSOR KUKUI]
[ANSWER] [DECLINE]
^
[CONNECTION ESTABLISHED!]
"Hang on now, just give me a sec..." Professor Kukui mumbled while fiddling with his Webcam.
"Hey there! Good Afternoon! So The day has finally come that you're vacationing in Alola!" Kukui exclaimed, after waving.
"Yep! I'm so excited! It's the first one I've had in years!" The girl at the computer spoke.
"Being Champion sure doesn't give you much time off, huh? You're sure to enjoy Alola, it's chock full of nothin' but rare Pokémon!" Professor Kukui chuckled while a Pokémon climbed onto his desk.
"Aww!! Your Pokémon is so cute!"
"Rockruff! Can you wait until I'm done talkin' to play?! Ahem—sorry about that, Rockruff is real amped up today. All right! I gotta ask you some questions about yourself, so I can introduce you to everybody! Can you send me a photo for your new trainer passport?" He said, as Rockruff leaped off of the desk.
"Of course! Uhm, I'm trying to keep a low profile, so my picture will look different as to how I'll look when I arrive."

"No problem! I'll be sure to let the guys at the Tourist Bureau know. Do you want to go by a different name or somethin' like that?"
"Yep! I kinda have to whenever I go to a new region. Shoot, give me a minute to come up with something."
The girl thought for a few minutes. All of her past names were tied to her actual name. She wanted to go for the opposite of her name, but Dusk was kind of lame. However, maybe a moon themed name would work.
"Selene. Introduce me as Selene."
"10-4 good buddy! I'll let everyone here know you're on your way! Selene! Yeah, that's a name that hits you like a Thunderbolt outta the sky! Woo! Can't wait to see you in person then, cousin!"
He waved goodbye, while his Rockruff gave a goodbye bark.
[CALL ENDED]
"DAWN! MAKE SURE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU WANT TO TAKE!" her mother shouted from another room.
"OKAY, I WILL!" Dawn shouted back.
Dawn proceeded to go and do just that, leaving an Alolan magazine open on her desk.

A blonde girl, all dressed in white, ran through a sterile, white building, carrying a duffel bag. She ran all the way to an elevator, rode it up, briefly catching her breath.
Stepping out, she thought she was in the clear, and began to walk.
Behind her, were two guards also dressed in white, who began to give chase.
The girl tore through the building as fast as she could, turning corners to hopefully slow them down.
Unfortunately, a third guard blocked off the path in front of her. The girl looked behind her and saw that the other guards were still right behind her.
Much to the girl's horror, the guards began to close in. With a panicked expression, she tugged on the duffel bag's straps.
Suddenly, a blue flash of light emerged from the duffel bag, enveloping the girl in its light.
And all too quickly, she disappeared.
