*Nervous chuckles*
Well…this is awkward.
So I have been…horrid at actually writing stuff, but I have just punched myself and said "just do it already Shadow" and I am now doing so.
So welcome to my story of the newest Pokémon game, Pokémon Moon!
I'm doing Moon because I have that version, for some explanation. This is gonna start off bumpy, getting better over time. But enough talking. Let's Begin!
Disclaimer: Pokémon moon and its characters are owned by Nintendo. The only thing here that isn't is my writing and my OPC (original player character)'s personality.
These disclaimers are gonna get old, fast…

She had to keep running. If she stopped, then all of that sneaking around and being cautious would be for nothing. She couldn't afford to get caught. For both her and Nebby's sake.
She reached the elevator, and it climbed up. "Which way to…drat! There they are."
Turning in the opposite direction, she ran from them, hoping to Arceus that she wouldn't get caught.
"Which way to…left!"
She was almost…no! There was someone there!
Trapped, she backed up, caught between 2 forces. It couldn't end like this! Just thinking about the things that would happen to her and Nebby…what her mother would do…no!
As they closed in, she wished for something…anything to save her!
A glow came from her bag, startling her and them. What was...?
As the girl who had stolen it disappeared, one of them screamed "NO! Damn that girl!"

Three months later…
"Ah! The first evening under Alola's calm moon! I feel like I could stay here all night." A woman with tanned skin said to the heavens "But that's enough of that! Time to unpack these boxes!" Turning to a small catlike creature with a gold piece on its forehead she asked," Meowth? Go get Storm for me, would you?"
The small creature known as Meowth cried an affirmative and went to grab 'Storm'.
Running into a small bedroom, it glanced around, looking for its owner's son. It found him sleeping, and with a cry of "Meowwwwr!" the boy woke up.
Rubbing sleep from his bright hazel eyes, he looked at his alarm clock…. And realized the offending noise was from the family pet, Meowth.
'What is it, Meowth? Mom want me to get up?" At the boy's question, Meowth nodded.
"Kay". Shaking his mop of black hair, he changed out of his Sleepwear into a blue and white striped shirt, a pair of black jeans, and a gray hoodie. Finishing his look, he put on the one piece of jewelry he wore- a small blue hexagonal crystal on a silver chain.

So, that quad X mark signifies any author notes I'll do. Storm is a reflection of myself in a few ways, and what he is wearing is what I usually wear. And for anyone who is curious- no that pendant does not have any story importance, it's just there. Also, I will explain some stuff at the end of this concerning characters- like ages, because there is NO way that the protagonist has been 10 since Gen 4. So I will be taking some creative liberties with that.

Walking out of his room, Storm was greeted by his mother.
"You were out like a light, weren't you? You ought to be full of energy now!"
"So, Storm…are you pumped to meet some alolan Pokémon?" Blinking at his mother's energy, Storm replied" Yeah, just wonder when-"The sound of the doorbell cut off Storm. "Perfect timing! That's got to be Professor Kukui!" His mother nodded at Storm, "Get the door please".
Nodding at his mother, Storm walked over to the door, only for the visitor to enter.
"Hey there Storm! Names Kukui. Good to meet you, cousin!" Kukui was not what you would call 'normal'. Dressed in a pair of green khaki short, a white cap, green trimmed glasses, and a lab coat that showed his chest, Kukui looked more like a surfer than a professor. "You gotta be tired after that long trip all the way to Alola! You feeling any jet lag? We sure are a long way from Kanto out here in Alola. It's still nighttime out here, yeah!"
"Hello, there Kukui!" his mother walked over.
"Hey there! I just let myself in. Surprised you remembered me" Kukui and his mom were obviously getting off to a good start. Strom drifted off, wondering how long it would take for-
"Hey now, Storm" Storm blinked as the professor startled him out of his thoughts. "Let's get a move on to the next town over, cousin! Time for you to meet the Island Kahuna and get yourself a Pokémon, yeah!"
"Kahuna?" Storm questioned what a 'Kahuna was. He'd never heard of such a term.
Kukui nodded "Sure, sure. The kahunas are crazy strong Pokémon trainers in Alola, cousin! They're unbeatable for folks like me and you!" Kukui continued "And the kahuna who olives in Iki town is always happy to give any kid who wants to have an adventure their first Pokémon, yeah.'
His mother cocked her head to one side "They'll simply give my boy a Pokémon? Them those kahunas are really worth meeting!" looking at him, his mother smiled "go and get your bag, Storm! It should be in one of those boxes!"
Storm nodded.
"Huh, bet you have a stylin hat that matches mine, yeah?" Kukui grinned.
"Used to, but I don't wear it that much anymore." Storm said, walking to get his bag.
OoOoOo (AU: this signifies time Passing.)
Storm walked out of his house, after saying goodbye to his mother, and looked around for Kukui, as he had no idea where Iki town was.
Looking to his right, he saw Professor Kukui waving, and walked over.
"Now this is more like it, yeah! Welcome to paradise, cousin. This is the Alola region!" Kukui nodded once, and continued, "Folks here in Alola get along by living together with Pokémon and working together, too. After all…you can go anywhere as long as you got Pokémon helping you out here." Kukui smiled as he said this.
"Off to Iki town then, huh?" Storm asked.
"Yep, this way!" Kukui said, pointing towards the hill to the right off them.
Storm nodded once, and began walking upwards, thinking to himself and glancing around.
"Lot of people here, with so many different Pokémon I've never seen. Wonder what choices ill have for a starter…" Storm thought.
OoOoOo
Storm was currently searching Iki town looking for the kahuna after Kukui had noted that there was no one at the meeting place.
"'He looks just like a kahuna!' Yeah, like that'll help me. Thanks, Professor Kukui!" Storm sullenly thought.
He reached an odd, wood altar that, per Kukui, was used as a place of hope to call to the Island's guardian, Tapu Koko. He glanced around once, and noticed a spot of white out of the corner of his eye. He turned towards it, and saw a girl dressed completely in white…. talking to her bag.
"Really? You want to go up to the ruins? I don't know what you hope to find there..." the girl walked off toward the ruins that Kukui had told him were where Tapu Koko lived.
Curious, he followed the girl.
OoOoOo
Storm was tailing the girl, growing more curious by the second as her bag shook, and she spoke it again "You can't come out! We'll get in trouble if anyone sees you."
"Another good idea would do not speak to your bag. It's pretty obvious that there some sort of little Pokémon in there, miss" Storm thought, watching as the girl walked off.
Storm rushed after her.
Upon reached the next area, he saw an odd scene
The girl was running towards a rickety old bridge, with some Spearows after her (AU: Spearows. Hate the things.) Suddenly, a small little Pokémon reminiscent of a cloud popped out of her bag, not noticing her Spearows. The little one ended up cowering in fear as the Spearows circled it.
Glancing behind her, the girl turned and spotted Storm.
"Ah…" The girl seemed lost for words. Storm now saw that the girl had on a fancy looking dress, tall boots, and a sun hat. Her hair was braided into heart shapes, and she had bright green eyes. She also had a duffel bag, which happened to be the only thing about her that wasn't completely white.
Storm also noticed her eyes. He'd always been good at reading people's eyes. Those green eyes were filled with sadness, despair, and a great fear of something underneath it all. Currently, those eyes were full of confusion.
Storm's first thought was "Wow, she's gorgeous, and a natural beauty at that." Which was quickly followed with a "Gah! Straying off the matter at hand here!" Storm shook his head and asked "Need some help?"
"H-help..." The girl stuttered. "Save Nebby!" She looked back at the small Pokémon, currently surrounded by Spearow. "I want to help...But...but I'm too afraid to go out there…My legs feel like they might give out..."
Storm nodded once, and ran out to save the little Pokémon. He quickly learned that the bridge was as unstable as it appeared, and one of the planks gave out. Undeterred, he ran out and covered the little Pokémon with his arms. One of the Spearows dived at them…and the 'Nebby' started glowing, a large explosion disintegrated that part of bridge they were on. Both fell towards the water, as Storm thought "wow, dead before I even got my Pokémon."
Suddenly, a Pokémon with electricity around it appeared, driving off the Spearows and carried both Storm and Nebby back to where the girl was standing. Both Teens (and Nebby) stared at the Pokémon, before it took off, leaving something shiny on the ground.
"Pew!" the little Pokémon cried, floating back over to the girl.
"Oh...oh, thank goodness!" the girl said, scooping the little one into her arms. "You tried using your power again…didn't you? Oh, Nebby… You know what happened last time you used it. You couldn't move for ages after that. I don't want to see you like that again" Scolding the little Pokémon, she spoke again, softer, 'No...I shouldn't say that. I know you were trying to save me that time…and I couldn't even help you in return…"
The little Pokémon jumped out of her arms, picking up the shiny thing and giving it to Storm.
"Ah!' The girl spoke up. "Please forgive me… I am so grateful for helping us out of that dangerous spot.'
"No worries" Storm reassured. "So who are you exactly, miss?"
Nodding, the girl answered." I'm Lillie." She looked at Storm, "Please...um..."
"Storm"
'Please, Storm, don't tell anyone about this-about seeing Nebby…"
"Ok." He looked down for a second. "Do you need an escort back? I mean, I don't have any Pokémon yet, but…" He trailed off.
"Yes, thank you that would be wonderful." Lillie smiled.
…So I deleted my old save file of moon because I couldn't remember the story exactly, and I wanted you guys to get the full experience. So, enjoy it!
Heh, I don't really mind if you don't. Could always use CONSTRUCTIVE criticism.
So the words are as follows
This: normal explanation or talking
This: internal talking
This: me, the author, speaking to you, the readers!
So, now for the more formal stuff. I already have Storm's team planned, and I already have a lot of other tidbits done. There're 3 things that will happen at each chapter's end. The first is what the age of any new character introduced is. The second is the Pokémon's bio, as in their moves, level, etc. The last thing is the approximate time of day at her chapter's end and how much time has passed since the start- as in when Storm woke up. It'll show how many days have passed, which will also help me not lose track so I can properly explain some things later. I may add more later, but that's all for now. This is Shadowsoul135, signing out!
