Chapter 3- Siri?(Edited)

Chapter 3

Alice was unsure how long it had been since she was forcibly pulled into what she now knew to be the Abyss. Time seemed to stand still here. As she withered in the darkness feeling her life leave her to attain anew, she thought about all of what she knew about the Pokémon World. She had played the video games as a kid, generation six being the last she played from her memory. If she started in one of the first six regions, she figured she would be okay. As Alice pondered over every scenario she could think of in past self-inserts she had read before, she noticed a small dot of white light before her.

Slowly but surely, it seemed her now, intangible body was slowly moving toward it. It appeared to become even brighter the closer she came unto it. Before Alice realized, she was but a foot away, or that was what it felt like. Can't really measure distance in a world of nothingness. As her spectral form finally made contact with the ball of light, her vision went dark, and she blacked out.

Awakening sometime later, Alice realized she was somewhere new. It was warm, not that uncomfortable warm, but more along the lines of mind-numbing. It honestly felt really relaxing. Losing herself to the feeling, as more unsurmountable time seemed to pass before her, Alice became aware of herself again. She quickly realized it was still dark. Attempting to open her eyes and failing miserably, Alice decided to move her now stiff limbs. Pushing her fist, since, for some odd reason, she didn't have the dexterity to open her palm, Alice felt a wall that seemed to encompass her. It was very smooth and soft.

Enjoying the feeling it gave her, she continued to push along it until she felt a vibration around her. Alice froze. 'Odd.' she thought. 'That almost felt like the rumble of someone laughing.' Testing her theory, she repeated the process. After a while of continuous probing the wall with her fist, she felt the vibration again. This time the laugh was more distinctive. Alice could hear it in its entirety. It sounded feminine. She paused. Realization hitting her like a freight train. Moving her fist again without touching the wall this time, she pushed it toward where her stomach should be. Feeling as if her arm was moving through the water, her hand made contact with what Alice now hysterically realized was her umbilical cord.

If it were possible, Alice would be screaming right now. 'This can't be happening!' she thought. With her mind once again in great turmoil, Alice once again blacked out. After an inconceivable amount of time, Alice awoke to a vibration that she now recognized as the voice of her new mother. Of course, this only riled up her emotional state again, realizing that she would have a family for the first time. Because of her previous experience as a first-year medical student, Alice realized that it would not be long until her birth. Having the ability to move her head, limbs, and appendages, hear the sound outside of the womb, open her eyes, as well the sensation of touch, she concluded that her mother was well within her third trimester.

'If I weren't so weirded out by this process, this would be pretty awesome.' She pondered. After her assessment and conclusion, Alice continued to listen in on the Vibrations to make out the conversation her mother was clearly having with someone.

"Awe, sweetheart, I thought you said my little angel was moving again." Stated the deep voice of an obvious man. From the conversation and tone he emitted, Alice concluded that this must be her father's voice. "Calm down Calum, I'm sure with the amount of movement I've received previously, our rambunctious little Alice will move anytime now." Hearing the Melodic voice of her new Mother, Alice could only grin exuberantly in joy. Her grin grew even wider when she realized she would have the same name from her, what she considered wholeheartedly now, her past life.

Continuing with her spy mission, Alice felt a large handprint appear upon the amniotic sac. Confirming it to be the palm of her curious father, Alice stretched out her hand and pushed against the shadow of his palm. In what could only be described as unrelenting joy, Calum screamed out. "She pushed Amelia, she pushed!" he exclaimed. "My little angel recognizes her daddy!" Amelia could only smirk as she shook her head at her child-like husband. Watching as he leaned into her, atop the bed, they lay upon as he spoke to her belly as if their little girl inside could understand him filled her heart with Joy.

Hearing her father swell with happiness, Alice was on cloud nine. From this interaction alone, she knew that she would have a very dotting father and a loving mother. Continuing to listen in, Alice began to hear more voices. "Mom, Dad, we're back!" shouted the young and scratchy voice of a young teenage boy. Amelia looked up to the bedroom door as it opened and revealed two young men. Amelia's cheeks flushed with color as she greeted her beautiful boys, both the spitting image of their father with ash-blond hair and hazel green eyes. "Corey," she said, looking at her eldest, the confident teenager of fifteen. "Please take your little brother Calvin to the barn with you to feed the Pokémon." "Also, be careful when you get to the Ninetales in the last pin that I'm caring for at the moment, she's getting close to laying her Pokémon egg soon, and she will be very defensive."

Amelia then Looked down to her bedside to get the attention of her partner Pokémon. "Espeon, sweetie, could you go with Calvin for his safety since he doesn't have his partner Pokémon yet?" The well-groomed Espeon arose from her bedding and stood next to Calvin as she sent a responding call to her trainer. "Espe!" Amelia smiled and turned her attention to her husband. "You should probably get to the Gym, sweetheart. From what the manager told me this morning, with the Pokémon league getting ready to start soon, you're going to have your work cut out for you."

Calum smiled at his worrying wife. "Your right. It's tough work being the Viridian Gym Leader." "Uhhhh," he sighed. "I'd much rather lay in bed talking to the two most important women in my life. But alas, Responsibility can be such a pain…" Calvin smiled up at his father's antics. "Come Umbreon, we have work to do." Said Calum as he exited the room, his partner in crime Umbreon following behind.

Listening to the happenings that entailed around her, Alice grew more and more excited with the realizations hitting her back to back. She, a previous orphan, would not only have loving parents but two elder brothers as well. And they were the perfect ages for dotting. Then there was the fact that her mother was either a Pokémon doctor or breeder. Hah! Maybe even both. Then there was her father. 'A Freakin Gym Leader!' she thought. But the most exciting news of all was her location. Viridian City! She now knew she was in Kanto.

Alice was ecstatic. She'd never been so happy in her life. 'Hah! And I haven't even been born yet!' she thought. 'Could this get any better?'

And as a response to her internal question, Alice heard the fourth voice. This one stiffer and more

robotic but clearly British and female. Even weirder, it sounded as if it came from within her mind.

*Hello, master! I am Cortana. Please prepare for birth. You have forty-eight hours and twelve minutes until Amelia Blake goes into Labor. *

'...…'

'WHAT THE HELL!!' thought Alice. 'I have a system?"

'And Why do you sound like a busted British Siri?!'
