A golden glow appears in the distance, gradually drifting toward her. She'd be forgiven for mistaking it for a star at first, except for how it seems to have more shape to it than a sphere as she gets a better look at it.

She looks. This is either very good news or very bad news and she's not sure which.

The glow draws nearer. It seems to be some kind of creature. 

Its voice booms gently across the void.

"Be at peace, human child. It is well that thou art here. What is thy name?"

"Umumumum um, Audrey!"

It nods, and the light dims, revealing an equine-shaped creature with a longer, almost centaurian section rising up from the front, a helmet-like head, and two golden, ring-like extrusions on its sides.

"I am that which humans call Arceus. I would see thee brought to a safer place, in hopes thou might one day learn thy power that brought thee here, and grow closer to humans and Pokémon alike."

It leans in closer to her.

"Thou wilt find friends easily. I will repair thy communications device."

Sparks of gold appear and swirl around her, before dipping into her purse and floating out her clamshell phone. The sparks swirl around the clamshell for a few moments, as a glow envelops the device, before receding to reveal a gold filigree in a delicate pattern of hearts around the pink exterior of the device, with a subtle ring-shaped design in the center of the top reminiscent of Arceus's rings. Then it floats back into her purse.

"Venture forth and grow, Audrey. Thy Pokémon Adventure awaits."

Whoa, really powerful alien! 

Audrey opens her mouth to speak -

The glow envelops Arceus again, and then Audrey, before suddenly Audrey is shooting away from the Mythical Pokémon, falling through the void toward what first looks like a distant star, then rapidly reveals itself to be a planet orbiting that star.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!!!

She plummets through the atmosphere, wind whipping her hair but somehow not burning her from friction, plunging down down down towards distant green and the glass flashes of a nearby city - 

And slams into the ground in a landing that somehow leaves her staggered and winded but not, actually, dead? Like, at all? She's doing okay? 

She picks herself up off her hands and knees and looks around her, trying to ascertain just where the heck she's landed.

Audrey finds herself in a meadow full of wildflowers, near a tree-lined path that winds through the land. In the distance to the east she can see the edges of a city skyline, while over the trees to the west and north she can see distant mountains.

Unfamiliar creatures lurk in the grass and tree branches.

And just a few meters away are different unfamiliar creature, and a purple-haired girl just a couple years older than her.

The nearby creature is small, with a white body, round head, almost-leafy green bowl-cut hair, and thin plate-like red spikes to the front and back of her head.

"Raaaalts??" she says aloud.

{Sable, love, how did that girl fall from the sky and live? Is she okay?}, she asks Sable telepathically.

Meanwhile, the purple-haired girl is shocked and worried about Audrey. {No idea.}

"Whoa! Hell of a fall! Are you okay?"

She bustles over to start checking Audrey over, looking for anything obviously broken.

She's wearing purple hiking boots, durable-looking black leggings, a pale pink skort, fingerless black gloves with purple trim, and a black t-shirt with a purple design of a pokéball with wavy concentric circles radiating out from it.

Audrey dusts herself off and takes a moment to still her breathing. She's wearing a flared miniskirt in red and black, a tank top, and black arm warmers with a pair of stompy boots. She's also wearing an obvious collar. 

"Yeah, I'm fine, nothing seems to be broken or anything." She rubs the back of her head. "Uh, does a white furred alien with gold rings on it that calls itself Arceus mean anything to you?"  

Sable blinks, taken aback.

"That is what the few people who've seen it say Arceus looks like. It's the Mythical Pokémon said to have created the universe. Although... calling Arceus an alien is really not what I'd expect?"

"Sorry, I, uh, don't think I'm from around here. I woke up drifting in space and my memory is kind of foggy. Arceus, whatever kind of creature it is, sent me here using some kind of obvious magic. I realize this is probably a ridiculous claim for you but I've got nothing better than the honestly pretty ridiculous truth."

"Ra-ralts," she replies in a disagreeing tone.

{Not that ridiculous, no,} Maya comments privately to Sable.

"Exactly, Maya," she comments to the little white-and-green creature beside her, before looking back at Audrey. "You fell at least a few hundred meters out of the sky, with no obvious source for you to fall from, and face-planted without getting hurt. On top of that, you don't seem to know what pokémon are. At this point, my top guesses are either shenanigans by a Legendary, or a teleportation accident coupled with serious memory loss to make you forget what pokémon are, and what you just described is literally a shenanigan by a Legendary."

"I... see?" She shrugs. "Um, hi, I'm Audrey!" 

She offers her hand to shake. "Heck of a way to meet someone new! I didn't expect humans, that's for sure."

"I'm Sable!" She shakes Audrey's hand eagerly.

"Ralts!" Maya adds cheerfully.

"And that's Maya. She's a Ralts, a species of pokémon. Should I assume you know absolutely nothing about pokémon and explain everything from scratch?"

"Yeah, pretty much!"

Sable stretches, bouncing a bit on her heels. "Oh wow. I've never gotten to do the speech before. It's usually the local Professor doing it, and then usually in a video you watch before you get your trainer license."

Then she grins at Audrey.

"Welcome to our world. This world is full of creatures we call Pokémon," she says, gesturing grandly at Maya.

Maya strikes a pose. "Ralts~," she says. Then, a bit of a purple glow around her horn, she floats a rock, orbits it once around Audrey's head, and then drops it to the ground.
