Better Late Than Never

Summary:

It's the day Johto children look forward to the most, the beginning their Pokemon journey! Leilani and Koa, recently from Alola, are not nearly as enthused.

Notes:

Wrote this for the 30+ monthly drabble prompt: "We're gonna be late!" I left off the exclamation point, but close enough, right? 🤣

These guys are from a WIP I'm slowly working on, where some Alolan 10 year olds are "forced" to go on a traditional Pokemon journey. They are not into it and have many misadventures. Lol

Work Text:

Leilani woke to a faceful of brown fur. Blowing it irritably out of her face, she yawned until her jaw popped. "Ow."

"We're gonna be late," her brother commented from the bottom bunk. Koa didn't sound as tired as she felt.

Shifting the still sleeping Eevee away from her face, Leilani peered at their alarm clock. "Maybe. Professor Oak lives literally two minutes away."

"We've got three minutes, and we're not even out of bed yet."

She shrugged. "Guess we're gonna be late, then."

The Eevee rolled over and began snoring.

"I think he's got the right idea," Koa chuckled.
