miley810 - rofl, that's something I would do! Anyways, it looks much better now. :) This girl is TALL! Interesting to see if she'll make friends on the ranch. Accepted. Also, the length of your RP Sample was perfect. Feel free to mkae posts that long if you can. I enjoy having lots of detail!

EDIT: Also, I'm planning on putting up the first mission tomorrow afternoon, so hang tight! And if you haven't finished your SU. you'll still have a bit of time afterwards.

Yeah just relized how tall she was.Edited to make her a bit shorter XD

Name: Jewel (Angel) Starr
Gender: female
Age: 17
Appearance: Jewel is what many deem perfect. She's 5'9", with a body that makes European supermodels green with envy. Her eyes are an icy blue, that harden to a piercing sapphire when she's pissed off. Her hair is long, going all the way down to her hips. Her hair is an electric or neon blue color. Her skin is what many call albino white, meaning pure white skin that rivals the color of snow. Her legs are very long, making her a wonderful athlete. Her boobs are...well....pretty big. She's actually quite proud of them. She usually wears various shades of blue tee-shirts and jeans. In the winter she wears a long blue and white trench coat and white fuzzy boots. She always wears sunglasses because her eyes are sensitive to sunlight.

Personality: Jewel is a loner, not very good with people. She gets into fights often because people won't leave her alone after she's asked them. Once you get to know her, Jewel is one of the most kind, gentle, loyal, protective people you could ever meet.


History: Jewel was born into a rich family. She craved her parent's attention, but never got it unless she did something bad. She attended Richmount because her parents didn't want to teach her themselves. She wasn't happy about going to Richmount and caused quite a stir. When she was 15, she'd already been in more school fights than most children get into in the 12 years they attend school. Jewel is a very smart girl. She could easily ace every test and homework they gave her. However, school bored her. So she never applied herself. She flunked out her senior year, and her parents disowned her. She was left with about $500,000 and the clothes on her back. They moved to an unknown region, where they ended up in a terrible accident. Jewel wasn't all that upset about her parent's deaths, considering that she was taken care of by the servants more than her own family. So Jewel ended up going to the place where all the kids went when they flunked out or got thrown out. The Pokemon Ranch.

Main Goal: Trainer, Breeder and possibly Coordinator.

Egg Number: 16

RP Sample: Taken from my RP Almia's Shadows Return.

Kunk! Valentine became a little shaken from the sound of his white backpack hitting the ground so loudly after being in near silence the past couple of days traveling.
He began to think about his trip here. First, he took the seemingly endless plane ride where he was able to take two full-length naps and it still took another hour or so to reach the airport. That was alright, he supposed, but the sound-canceling headphones he wore made everything too mute. It was like the plane was going to crash down and kill everyone and he would be reading a magazine, completely unaware of the earth-shaking screams of one melodramatic teenage girl on the plane. However, being a bit paranoid about being oblivious in you're hour of death was a lot better to him than hearing the hyped-up, shrill vocals of that same melodramatic teenage girl talking about the new designer dark-type-themed shoes she got in Johto he heard every time he had to turn the headphones off and go to the bathroom.

"And you can't tell her to shut up either," he thought, "those shoes are Karen of The Elite Four's designer brand. Very big deal, as we all must know by now. She's just doing us the service of extolling their overpriced virtues from experience. We should praise her for her vast knowledge of six-inch heels and- Wow I'm a smart ass,"

He paused to look at around at his new surroundings. The field was moist, as it was soaking his roughed-up sneakers. He started to wonder where this "Dennis or Derek guy" who ran the camp was supposed to be. There was no sign of anything happening soon, so he went back to his thoughts.

After the plane ride ended, he had to take a boat to this large city. It was filled with more people than the plane, but notheless boring. Nobody wanted to talk, for some reason; especially the people from Richmount who were going to the same place he was. He started wondering what things they did to get here. "Maybe murder," he contemplated. "Or perhaps burning down a teacher's office?" Although he knew these were farfetched, he liked thinking about it. It made things more interesting that way. But then he started to remember some of the things that happened at Richmount, such as the fights and the rumors about whoever flunked, and felt a bit discouraged towards his fantasies.

"Hey there," he said to one of the people standing next to him. "What're you in for?" Although he was joking, the person didn't respond. He left them alone after that. A bit unfriendly of them, he thought, but he understood- he didn't really feel all that friendly either after being sent to the ranch, then enduring the plane, the boat, and then most of all the car-

Oh, the car. That was particularly enthralling. Valentine has sat up next the driver, and since he was tired of the lack of noise during the last couple of days, he tried to strike up a conversation with him. Talk about crashing into an opposite-going train and falling off the bridge. Valentine recalled the entire scene in his head:

"So, where are you fro-" Valentine started.

"Waterway." The driver spat out like the words were creating a bad taste in his mouth.

"Y- you got any Pokémon?" Valentine hesitatively asked.

"I got one Zubat and two Graveler, what of it?" The driver asked angrily with the slightest hint of defensiveness.

"Well I like Pokémon, and I was wondering if you had any favorites…." Valentine didn't feel like continuing with this man, and now was starting to miss that designer-shoe wearing girl on the plane. At least she wasn't freaking miserable about everything.

"Favorites?! You trying to stalk me, boy?" the man interrogated.

"No!" Valentine said. "I was just-"

"Look, boy, mind your own damn business. I ain't here for your entertainment, sicko."

Valentine really started to get baffled at this man's logic about how asking him what his preferred Pokémon were made Valentine a sick-minded stalker, so he dropped the conversation here. And for the next hour or so, he and the man sat in the most awkward silence you could imagine. He couldn't get out of the car faster when they stopped.

So after a bit of a walk then, him and fifteen or so people were standing in the middle of a field, surrounded by two buildings and facing a third one; Just waiting for this leader guy to show up. He finally does and apologizes about his lateness, and also introduces himself as "Ranch Leader Derek" and that's "Sir" to the group.

"Oh yeah, like that not egotistical or anything. Nice establishing your authority." Valentine says to himself, already not liking how the guy asserts himself.

Derek points out the boys' and girls' cabins, and tells about the middle one, with a library and sitting room, among other things; and also something about the second floor, which Valentine thought Derek explained like he was foreshadowing something for later, like they were all in a novel. Valentine wasn't particularly paying attention or interested to listening to this guy. Derek then brought them into the third building, which was huge and a bit cozy. Valentine liked it. There were a large number of eggs in the room, of almost every color it seemed.

Derek asked the group to pick which egg they would like as their first Pokémon and assignment. Valentine decided to snatch up the indigo one, since it's his favorite color. He places the egg in his backpack which he had been carrying in his hand since the field, zips it up, and then picks up and wears it.

Valentine walked to the boys' cabin afterward. He looked at all the other members of the ranch, each one glazed with their own unique mixtures of emotion.
Once in the cabin, he held the door for the rest of the guys to enter, as he does all the time. He got a couple thank you's, so he started to feel a little confident in the other people who were here. After the last guy passed through, he lobbed his backpack next to the bed he liked the most for… just being the first he saw that was open, really. He sat down and took out the egg from his backpack that he received. He stared and examined at it for a bit, and he couldn't help but feel just the slightest bit of excitement as he thought he felt the a tiny shake from it, which he was sure he just imagined, but wanted to believe was real anyway.

Valentine blinked and realized how fast it felt from when Derek appeared to now. Everything was going quick now that traveling was over. He decided to go for a bit to clear his head and take more note of the scenery that surrounded him. He walked out of the cabin with his shimmering indigo egg still in hand.

----

I hope this is how this is supposed to go and that the conversation between Valentine and the Driver was an okay since he's technically an NPC.

But anywhos, I might type up the walking portion after this for the first mission later.

I also felt like I was lacking with the Derek part- but then again, it reflects how Valentine wasn't really paying attention and how fast it was paced.

We're here! Xoxaa wasn't really excited about it at all though. Actually, she was quite nervous, almost to the point where she would start to sweat. As they left their vehicle upon arriving on the ranch, they soon met the ranch leader who pointed out the basics of their stay here. Xoxaa was frozen in place, trying desperately not to draw attention to herself. She felt nervous enough, being around other failures who might've had a more violent reason to be here. She didn't feel safe at all, but hopefully that would change.

They were then lead into the central building where they would receive Pokemon eggs. Fortunately Xoxaa was towards the front so she would have first pick. However her luck wouldn't pan out as well as she had expected. As she looked over the eggs on the table, she spotted the one she wanted.

"There, the indigo one! I'll take that one," she thought to herself, only for it to be snatched by some strange boy a second later.

"Dammit! Just my luck!"

Disheartened that he took her first choice, she spotted another, a blue egg.

"This one looks pretty close to that other one. I'll take it before someone else does," she decides, picking up the egg and holding it up to the light.

She smiled slightly, examining the egg's bright shine to it, her first positive expression since she arrived at the ranch. Xoxaa lowered the egg and folded her arms around it, keeping it close to her chest. However that proved to be a challenge, considering that her bust size made it hard to keep the egg extra close.

The convicts, or so she liked to call herself and the other students staying here, left the central building after retreiving their eggs. With time now to settle in, Xoxaa went straight for where the girls would be staying. She went straight for her area and dropped her bag at the foot of her bed. She leaped onto her bed, the egg still clenched tightly in her arms and she stared at the ceiling. This new future was an uncertain one and she's in the company of strangers, some of who could be very dangerous. But hopefully this egg could hatch into one of the Pokemon that she loves so that at least she'll have one friend on the ranch that she's certain will become a nightmare.

Valentine started to head towards where Derek said the gardens were located. Valentine was having quite a tough time holding onto the indigo marvel of an egg in his arms. The thing sure was awkwardly round- and a bit hefty, too.

"Could be a Munchlax," Valentine thought, "Definitely has the weight to support the claim. Nah, that's not fair. Maybe an Oddish. Although, those things aren't particularly heavy, are they?" Valentine paused. "Maybe the egg shell is heavy or something. Or, I could just be a weakling. It could be as light as a Hoppip for all I know right now. Oo! Hoppip! That'd be neat."

Valentine couldn't help himself in just trying to guess just what this mysterious oval-shaped two-ton developing embryo cover contained. But a thing Valentine really liked was that what the egg contained absolutely complete potential to be anything. Maybe even a Lugia, who's to say until it hatches?

Reaching the gardens, Valentine started to wonder where Derek exactly got these wonderfully colored eggs. "Is he stealing them? Or, perhaps, does he have an underground breeding center? What?! Do the other ranchers know about this?! Are they all in on it? Is my amazing Technicolor dreamegg really just the product of illegal Pokémon distribution? I-"

Suddenly, Valentine tripped on a rock and fell face first into the beautiful flower bush below him. Valentine scurried to re-find his egg, which landed in a bit off mud on the ground near the bush. He picked it up, and looked it over. A bit messy, but otherwise fine and landed softly.

Valentine decided to head back now to the cabins, the fresh air wasn't helping empty his head. But, it did give him a brand new way to look at Derek. Who knows if that very same illegal Pokémon breeding is up that forbidden set of stairs in the main building?

"Hm. This calls for discovery for a later date," he said to himself; not really taking it seriously, but having fun notheless.

Jewel set her things down on the dusty ground. She surveyed her new surroundings. *Ugh. Wayyyy too much dirt for my taste*, she thought to herself. She walked to the middle building, and saw a table with Pokemon eggs. She walked over to the table, looking at the eggs that remained. She saw an egg with an icy-blue shell. She looked at each egg, but every time her eyes wandered back to the icy-blue egg. She picked up the egg gingerly, holding it close to her chest. The egg seemed to shine a bit before returning to it's icy-blue color. Jewel went to the cabins and found herself an empty bunk on bottom. She put her things down, but kept the egg with her.

*It feels really cold. Maybe it's a Glaceon. That'd be cool.*, she thought to herself. She saw some other kids with eggs, but didn't feel like trying to say hello. She found an empty space on the floor in a corner and sat down. She stroked the egg gently, wondering when it would hatch and what it would hatch into. She began humming a soft tune, singing to the egg. She was hoping to coax the egg to hatch faster, even though she knew it probably wouldn't work. She began thinking about names. *If it's a girl, I'll name her Shirona. If it's a boy, I'll name it Raja*, she decided after 15 minutes.

If someone drops out, can I get dibs on reserving their spot? This RP looks awesome!

Chapter 1:

After hours of flight, the airplane had finally landed at their destination. Alice was half asleep, and let out a yawn of relief to know they had finally landed. Worn down from the ride, she had trouble standing up at first, but rose to her feet eventually. The bag she carried was heavy with clothing and other small valuables she had brought. The girl picked it up with ease, walking out of the plane and looking around at her temporary home. In front of her was about 3 cabins; apparently, the woman's cabin was the one at the right.

She walked up to it. It looked old, but as she peered inside the cabin looked relatively new. Or at last clean. Alice walked inside, her feet creaking under the floorboards. The thought of living here for the summer made her groan, and she was positive there would be lots of work to do once was finished getting comfortable. If only she had tried somewhat harder to do her homework in school. Reviewing over her memories, she had been a lazy ass when it came to working. This work was going to make her suffer.

Exploring the cabin, she realized it was actually quite huge, despite its appearance on the outside. It was bigger than the room she use to live in, at least. Finding a bed, she threw her backpack on the bed and took off her leather coat. She stretched out her arms. though the good times wouldn't last long here, she'd have to enjoy her first day somehow or another. In fact, she was even going to get her first pokemon today. As she was told earlier,"recieve a pokemon egg from the middle building".

She approached the cabin door, opening it and slamming it behind her as she walked outside into the fresh air. Alice didn't know too much about pokemon, but had learned several things from school that may have assisted her once she received her own pokemon egg. The girl had no idea what kind off a species she would get once the egg hatched. Alice assumed that the appearance of the egg would resemble the actual pokemon inside, but looks weren't always what they seemed.

Heading for the cabin right next to her own, she passed by several other kids from school. She had never socialized with anyone, except for a selected few who had, sadly, already graduated. Alice made a mental note to learn the names of each of them by the time summer was over. Opening the middle cabin door, she peered inside with great interest of what was inside. It was much larger than her original cabin, and had a more comfortable atmosphere. In the middle of the building she saw a table, fortunately lined with several pokemon eggs that hadn't yet been snatched by the other students. Alice looked for something to resemble herself, and found nothing.

The only thing that managed to stick out to her was a black egg clearly noticeable between all of the other colored eggs. It stood out, though it seemed separate from the group. Alice was certain it hid a very unique pokemon inside.

"That's the one," she mumbled to herself, picking it up and holding it in her arms as if it was a newborn baby.

(OOC: I apologize greatly for the amount of time it has taken me to get this up!!!)

Chapter 1

Cheyenne tapped her foot on the ground impatiently, listening to the so called 'Ranch Leader' explaining the rules of the ranch. She rolled her eyes as he droned on, his words not even making it into her head. Her eyes examined the rest of the kids around, but she knew better than to judge by her first instinct. She needed to know exactly who she was dealing with, and to correctly know that, she would need to interact with them. Exactly how, she wasn't necessarily sure.

She crossed her arms, tapping her finger on her arm, matching the tapping of her foot. She closed her eyes for a minute, completely droning out any sounds the 'Ranch Leader' may have been making. She was aware of the fact that it may be in her best interest to at least hear out the rules, but she couldn't force herself to focus. Her mind just canceled the thought. Most likely, she would be able to reassemble whatever was being said in her mind later, and if not, she could always ask one of the others.

"-A very own Pokemon egg of your own!" she opened her eyes, snapping back to the scene in front of her. Whatever the beginning of that sentence had been, she didn't know it. She looked around, and upon seeing the others heading for a building, in between two others, she decided to follow. What harm could come from that? If she got in trouble, so would these others.

Once she was inside the building, she noticed a table that held Pokemon eggs on it. She observed as others picked theirs up, but she herself just stood there for a moment, looking at the table curiously. It would seem that they were suppose to take one of the eggs from the table, but her question was, which one? Had he told them each which one to take ahead of time? Were there certain ones they weren't allowed to touch?

She stood in front of the table, still unmoving for a moment or so, until one of the eggs caught her eye. It was a shiny red color, and it just seemed to stand out amongst the others. Maybe it was just her, and her love for the color red, but she knew this egg was the one she wanted. She reached a hand out, but then pulled it back, still running thoughts over in her head as to whether she was doing something particularly wrong or not. Though, once the majority of the others had already left, she just sighed, and reached for the egg again.

She held it in her arms, looking at it curiously. The color may or may not reflect the being that was inside of it. It the color did, then it could possibly be a fire type. Or a ground type. As red could easily represent either of them. Then again, perhaps the color had no relation to the type at all. Perhaps it reflected the attitude, personality, or nature of the Pokemon inside. In that case, she assumed that this Pokemon could possibly be aggressive, as that is her first thought when the color red enters her mind.

Once leaving the middle building, she glanced around, holding the egg tightly. There were two other buildings, she wasn't exactly sure which building was made for what. She caught one of two of the girls heading towards the one to her left, which would have been her right had she been facing the direction she'd arrived in. She quickly made her way to the building she had seen the girls head towards, hoping it may be the sleeping quarters.

Once inside, she quickly found a bed, a sat the egg down carefully on a pillow. She herself kept to her feet, her arms crossed over her chest, eying the egg. She glanced down at the camera around her neck, and fiddled it between her hands. She bit down on her lip, contemplating on whether now was a good time to use some of the pictures. She had never photographed an egg before. Not like she ever really got to see one back home.

She clenched the camera in her hands, then, tilting her head slightly, she came to a decision. She pulled the camera up, focusing her lens on the red egg that lay resting on her pillow. She focused her sight on it for a few minutes, angling herself differently, until she found a position she was comfortable from. She put her finger on the button, prepared to take her first official picture of ranch life. Of her new life. Taking in a deep breath, she pushed her finger down, then she saw the flash. And it was done.

She now had officially begun her new adventure. A new place to be explored. A new world to be observed. And it was just the beginning.
