You'll be safe with me, FOREVER!"
Asomito awoke with a jolt. The nightmares, they kept on coming back. "Why?", he would ask himself repeatedly, while lying in his sleeping bag. He stood up shakily, staring into the night sky. He had that same dream, every night, the same thing. Calming himself down, he paced back and forth, in the alleyway where he and his friends lived. Where stars would have been, now loomed industrial smoke and smog.
"What a beautiful night, isn't it?" Someone said softly. Asomito whipped around, clutching a pokéball in his hand.
There stood a hooded figure, their features obscured by shadows. "Oh, you can attack me, but I know you aren't that kind of person". Asomito clenched his fists, taken back. "Hello there! Welcome to the world of Po-" Asomito yelled, chucking the stone at the hooded person. The hooded figure stopped, with a stone in his hand. "Oh, I know about your dreams. Don't be afraid, we are going to have SO MUCH fun. So be a good boy, and go to sleep." The last thing Asomito heard, was a maniacal laughter filling the air.
