Prologue:

Would he EVER go to sleep? It didn't seem very likely with his friend over that night. Of course, his friend Karai wasn't getting any sleep either.

Karai, at the moment, was trying to think of some other odd story to type on the computer. She had planned to sleep that night around four am, when she always did. Although, there was the terror of knowing her brother planned to wake her at seven by screaming, "POKEMON IS ON!". Even though she liked the show, she had most likely seen the episode before, and would reply by saying, "I DON'T CARE! LET ME SLEEP!". As she continued to type her story, she put that out of her mind as much as possible. Rocket has a friend over tonight. I wonder if that means they'll stay up later. Hey! Maybe he'll sleep at four too! Well, four his time. By that time here it'll be six.. Karai thought.

"Hey Rocket, which door do I go through?" his friend asked.
"I don't remember." Rocket said tiredish.
Geeze I'm so tired today... I also have this horrible stomachache. I can barely keep myself awake. He thought to himself.
"What do I do?"
"I don't know."
"What do I do?!"
"I don't know!"
Hey, I never had any help when I played it, why should I help you? I thought.

Karai yawned. Tired? Wait, no, I can't feel tired! With that thought in mind, she went to get two sodas and some candy. This should keep me up at least an hour or two. Then, she started typing on another story. I wonder if candy would help Rocket stay awake. It helps me all the time!

I need some soda... I'm dying of thirst here. Rocket thought.

Karai yawned again. Neither the soda, nor candy seemed to be helping any. Noise. That might help. With that, she turned on a random Japanese song she had saved to the computer.

... It seems to be working. The boy was easy, since he was tired all day. The girl is also getting sleepy. It's only a matter of time... Someone thought.

"KARAI! What are you doing up?!" Rocket asked.

"I don't know." Karai answered. "What time is it?"

"It's 2:10 AM" He said. He looked at his own clock, which said 12:10.

"That morning already?," Karai said, sounding somewhat dazed. "Well then, light shine in!" What in the world am I talking about?!! She opened her eyes a bit wider and looked at her clock. I shouldn't be feeling this dazed or loopy at 2 am. That comes at 5am

"Light? At 2:00? Karai, have you been eating too much candy?" Rocket asked. "Karai, even sleepy, I'm not that clueless." Rocket said.

"Yeah...," Karai said, still dazed. " Erm. If tomorrow is today then what is yesterday is tomorrrow when today was actually yesterday but in a different universe it was today?" Where is this crazy stuff coming from? What is wrong with me? Am I really in that much need of sleep?

"I can't answer that now, I need to escort my friend in the dark." Rocket said.

" Awight," Karai said.

"Are you so tired that you can't even spell right?" Rocket asked.

grrr... Just a second ago... that kid was sleepy, and now, after a small sip of water, and a small Ice Cream Sandwich, he's suddenly all awake... Someone came behind the voice...

" I can't be tired.," Karai said. She opened her eyes and sat up straight in the chair, then she looked at what she had been typing. " Yeah. Maybe I am getting a bit tired. Still, that was um...it had to have been a typing error." She didn't want to admit that she'd actually been that out of it at the moment. The daze is going away somewhat. Still....I can't see why I'd feel this tired so soon!

"Well, you DO get many errors." Rocket said.

"... Hey, what are you doing?" The voice asked.
"Uh... nothing."
"Look Mark, I may not be that smart, but even I can tell when you lie, as long as I've been with you."
"Well..." Mark said.
"Look, if you don't want to tell me, that's alright. But you're not the usual for lying like that."
"Alright... I'm looking for a partner for Wonders." Mark admitted.
"Mark, I can help you if you want."
"Shock, I need to do this on my own, okay? I need to find someone perfect for him... or at least, close to perfect." Mark said.
"What do you mean by that?" Shock asked.
"Someone that knows Wonders better than either you or I." Mark answered.
"But Mark, I've known Wonders all my life, and you know everything of the past!" Shock said.
"And yet, Wonders hates both of us. The Pokemon I'm looking for... he just might fit it." Mark said.
"Wait, but what about Aro?" Shock asked suddenly.
"Don't worry Shock. I know what I'm doing here." Man, I was hoping she wouldn't ask about Aro... Can't I keep any of my work a secret from her?

"CANDY!!!," Karai yelled. " ROCKET!! GET HERSHY CANDY!!!! IT"LL WAKE YA UP GOOOD!! Yay! The daze is gone!!...For now I guess..

"Ahh!" Mark exclaimed aloud.
"Look Mark, I can seriously help!" Shock reoffered.
"No Shock, I can do this myself!" Mark exclaimed.
"Come on... move out of the way..." Shock asked.
"Stop shoving..." Mark requested.

"Oof" Mark said, finally being pushed out of the way.
"Woah... what... what's this?" Shock asked.
"My secret." Mark snarled.
"Ah! Mark, why even bother keeping secrets from me anyways?" Shock asked, shocked. That mysterious thing is the whole reason why no one can tolerate him...
"Well, there's still one more." Shock said.
"Oh don't worry about her. She already has a partner." Mark said.
"Huh? She does?" Shock asked.
"Yeah, now stop distracting me... I need to send these two to sleep." Mark said.

" CANDYY!!!," Karai shouted again. Oh no....the...daze.. "Light!....DAyzzz......night.." Too.....strong..... "lafjkojgoohor005000" That was the first time Karai had ever actually fallen asleep at the keyboard.

"Hey Rocket! Look look! I finally got Bowser!" His friend said.
"Rocket... Rocket? Huh, must fell asleep."

"I said I could do this myself."
"Well, I still say you could use help." Shock commented.
"Shock..."
"What? I can't even help a little bit?" Shock asked.
"I was going to say thanks." Mark said with a smile.
"Oh... Okay. Er... yeah, let's get ready. Even you can't handle this part on your own." Shock said.
"Yeah, I actually agree with you Shock. Come on." Mark said.

"WHAT?!"
"That's right!"
"You're just trying to make me angry."
"No, seriously!"
"... Prove it then."
"Fine. Squirtle, can you please get over here?!"
"Uh yeah Rita." Squirtle said.
"Wh-What?!"
"This is my for sure new partner Wonders! I TOLD you I didn't make him up!" Rita exclaimed.
"Whatever. You probably forced him to join your idiotic rescue team." Wonders said.
"No, I asked him if he wanted to join, and he said sure!" Rita exclaimed.
"Yeah, I'm her new partner Squirtle... hey, who's that over there?" Squirtle asked.
"Hmph, it's Shock. What does she want?" Wonders asked.
"Wonders, that's NOT Shock." Rita corrected.
"What? Then who is it?" Wonders asked.
"It's Aro! I wonder what he's doing here..." Rita said.
"Who's Aro?" Wonders asked.
"Aro, is a Pikachu who prefers fighting without electric moves. I've heard a rumor that's he's pretty strong. But I think it's so cool that he can fight without his electrical powers! I want to be just like him!" Rita exclaimed.
"You don't have electrical powers. You're a Chikorita." Wonders said coolly.
"I MEAN to be able to fight without using grass type moves!" Rita said.
"That's basically a fighting type. Anyways, how will using moves like that help him fight a Pokemon like Gastly?" Wonders continued.
"Well... in that case maybe he would use electric attack. BUT in any other case, he trains to attack without electric powers." Rita said.
"Hmph, that means I could beat him without worrying about his electric attacks." Wonders said.
*hits him*
"Wonders! You're not strong enough to battle him!" Rita exclaimed.
"Ha! You've never even SEEN me in battle before." Wonders said.
"Oh, hi Aro, I'm Squirtle." Squirtle said while Rita and Wonders were arguing.
"Hello Squirtle," Aro said, smiling. "Did that Totodile over there want to battle me? It seems like he wants to."
"Yes Aro, I want to battle you." Wonders said.
"If only he had brains." Rita whispered to Squirtle.
"Alright then," Aro said. "Did you want to fight here, and be humiliated in front of all your friends, or elsewhere in a more private area?" ((I'm starting to sound like her.......))
"Ha, friends? You obviously don't know who I am." Wonders said.
"Rita, I heard earlier that there was a Pokemon that needed some help..." Squirtle whispered to Rita.
"What, and you didn't tell me earlier?" Rita asked.
"Well, I was about to, but then you and Wonders started arguing. Anyways, let's go." Squirtle said.
I hate Shock and everything about her... but I did learn a lot while training... I has never strong enough to beat her or Mark because they were ultra powered. But this? This should be easy. Wonders thought.
"And I'm quite certain you know nothing of me either.," Aro said to Wonders. "Perhaps you've heard of my unique fighting style. Don't get overconfident just because I refuse to attack using electricity. Now, if you truly want to fight, attack me."
Without any stall, Wonders charged at Aro and started with a bite attack.
Seeing the coming attack, Aro jumped back and kicked Wonders in the jaw before he had a chance to bite down on the mouse Pokemon. Then, while the Totodile was stunned, Aro came foreword and punched him hard, causing him to reel backwards.
"Err... lucky shot!" Wonders exclaimed. Why did he get me so quickly? I barely had time to even get close to him before he just kicked me... What am I going to do?! Wonders thought.
"Lucky shot my foot," Aro said. "You'd better learn to move faster. Come on. Try again."
Speed! Fine then, I'll show you speed! Wonders thought to himself. He ran around Aro, and then dug under ground.
Dig. A ground type move. Aro closed his eyes and listened to the ground's vibrations. Wonders was going to come up right under him. He tried to jump out of the way, but it was too late.
"Boy I feel like an idiot. Dig is a ground type move, and you're a Pikachu." Wonders said. I can't win this be keep using Dig though. That's just cheap.
At this, Wonders decided to try to get Aro with a Crunch, and got ready to charge for him.
Seeing what Wonders was preparing to do, he got in position for another counter, much like the tactic he had used the first time.
Wonders was about to bite, and Aro was about to kick, when something stopped both of them in their tracks. It was a yellow blur, but then Wonders focused in and saw red cheeks. It was another Pikachu. Shock pushed Wonders away from Aro, and Wonders gave Shock a glare.
"What are you doing here?" Wonders asked.
"Wonders, we need you for something." Mark said.
"What?! You think you can come here and tell me you need me for something!?" Wonders asked.
"Yes Wonders. We need you to come with us." Mark said.
"What makes you think I'm going to come?" Wonders asked.
"Look Wonders, I may usually be untrustworthy, but I'm serious here, you can either come with us voluntarily, or… we'll force you to come." Mark gave Wonders a serious glare.
These two think they can control me… but I'm double-outranked here. I guess I have no other choice. "Fine Mark, I'll go." Wonders said with a snarl. After taking a few steps, Wonders turned around and said to Aro; "Don't think our battle is over yet. When I'm done with these two, I'll come back for you."
"Then I'll be waiting right here," Aro said. He then said down and closed his eyes, as if he were meditating.

"Hmm... I wonder what he's planning..." A voice asked somewhere.
"I don't know, but it might have something to do with that Charmander and Vulpix." The other voice said.
"Mark mentioned something about someone who knew more about us than we do." the first voice said.
"I think it's the Charmander boss."
"Whatever he's planning, we must stop him." The boss said.
"What are you going to do, kill him?"
"I'm not that ruthless. No, this Pokemon has too much power just by knowledge. I must erase his memory." The Boss said.
"Is that it?"
"No. I have a feeling that this Charmander is supposed to be Wonders's partner, and I cannot let that happen." The boss said.
"What are you going to do?"
"Just watch…" The boss said. He murmured a spell, and then the Charmander started glowing. "With this spell, he will not be able to use any special powers he may possess. If Mark is interested in him, then he might have a spirit power."
"You're going to great lengths to make sure you're not beaten."
"If Mark and Shock get any more powerful, they might actually stop me from taking over the world! We can't let that happen." The boss said.
"What about Vulpix?"
"She will be a threat too. I'm thinking about switching it to a Pachirisu." The boss said.
"Why?"
"Because, from the way I see it, the only other Pokemon that can have a partner besides Wonders… is Aro. And you know the rules, Pokemon of the same type cannot be on the same team." The Charmander stopped glowing… turning into a different Pokemon…
"Why not a Pikachu?"
"There are too many Pikachu around here… Oh!" The Boss said.
"What's wrong boss?"
"Too… much… I can't access all my powers… I can only transform one of them into a different Pokemon. Oh well." The Boss said, still watching the Charmander from a psychic screen.

What will happen to the Charmander? What could Wonders possibly have against Mark and Shock? Speaking of them, what do they have to do with Karai and Rocket? And who is this Pokemon who wants to transform the Charmander into another Pokémon? These questions, and more, will be answered later!

I hope this is an interesting story... and maybe... maybe... I might have a review? It might be nice, since I'm new to Fanfic and all of that. (But just so you know, I wrote this story with someone else from Fanfic; Pokepal Karai Natsume)
