Hi heidicruiz,
I play PCA, I can try to help you but unfortunately, I do not understand the issue at hand.
Here are the step by step instructions on loading the game file and the lua.
1. Run vba.exe.
2. Press control+o to open the open game file dialogue.
3. Select the "Pokemon - Crystal Version (USA, Europe).gbc" file from the file list [if this is the first time you have launched the .exe file and have not modified the folder, that .gbc file should be your only option].
4. Select and prress enter on that file [from now on, you can quickly launch the game file in VBA by pressing control+f1, assuming this is the only game you play with VBA].
The game will now make strange 8-bit sounds.
Now to get the .lua file up and running.
1. Press alt+t to jump to the tools menu.
2. Press l to jump to the "LUA Scripting" submenu.
3. Click the first option "New Lua Script Window..." or press n.
4. Navigate to the browse button or type the full directory the .lua file is located.
5. Select and press enter on the "pokemon.lua" file in the list if you have clicked the browse button.
6. NVDA focus will return to the main new LUA Script window. Navigate to the run button and press enter.
7. Wait until your screen reader announces "ready" and press escape to close the windows.
The game should now be running with the LUA script.
Hope this helps.

Ah, the VBA controller layout. You'll just have to get used to that.
The controls are as follows:
z=Primary Action [activates menu options] [equivilant to enter].
x=Secondary Action [ exits] [equivilant to escape].
enter=Start [as the name suggests, used to start games. Also used to show the "Pokemon Trainer" menu. [No equivilant].
This is everything you should need to play the game.

You forgot backspace, which is the gameboy select button. This is important because you can register some key items like the bike and fishing rod to this button for quick use.
