Erm...well...this is my first attempt at a fanfiction folks! I'd thought I'd write about something I'm familiar with...pokemon!

Anyways I hope you enjoy my story so far. I hope to write and upload more chapters when I have time. =)

- Dah Bunnah King

A tall silhouette danced along the face of a giant, towering rock. A fire blazed bright red, obscuring the figure that stood outside the ring of light in shadows. The shadow moved back and forth. The figure was pacing feverishly, as if thinking deeply about something. Another figure rose. This one was odd in shape, almost rock like. Two tube-like arms rose slightly as it floated in mid-air. It let out a metallic cry, a yawn of some sort. The first figure, obviously a human, walked to the bizarrely shaped rock and raised a single hand that met it. The fire wavered and the shadows danced once more. The night scene faded to black, soon replaced by another.

The sun shone brightly. It was nearly impossible to merely open my eyes without being blinded by the bright summer sun. The heat it exerted warmed my usually cold hands and long untidy brown hair. After getting used the light, I examined the area around me. A small, grassy field lay in front of me and a small forest met it farther on. It seemed to be a small backyard. Soon enough I found the house behind me. It was warm yellow in color, familiar and welcoming. Boxes of flowers crowded the steps. They were in all of the colors of the rainbow, blue, yellow, green, orange and arranged carefully. Empty pots took up the space the boxes didn't. A large pile of dirt claimed its spot by the side of the house. For a second, I had forgotten where and what I was until I heard my name being called.

The kind and deep voice vibrated in my ears. I turned to see a face I failed to notice. His gray hair was messily brushed and his t-shirt and jeans were just as unkempt. Yet, despite his sloppy appearance I found him inviting and trustworthy. He laughed as I ran towards him, my surprisingly small legs made it difficult to reach him, but I eventually found myself embraced by his long arms.

"oh, how are we ever going to get you to fulfill your dreams if your so scared of a big Pokémon?"

I tiny tingle of recognization ran through my brain. Steven's gray eyes twinkled as he chuckled, his chest tickling mine as it heaved up and down with his breaths. A small metallic giggle joined his, I quickly recognized the blue creature standing beside Steven. Metagross.

"I…I'm sorry…" My mouth a voice seemed to have a mind of it's own. Although I was still thoroughly puzzled at the situation, some other part of me knew exactly what was going on.

Steven's mouth pulled into an amused-looking smile. "It's quite all right. You'll get it soon. Why don't we take a break?" At these words he released his arms and stood to hold out a hand.

"I…want to try…again…"

Steven tilted his head in surprise. His gray hair cascaded down over his face and eyes. He quickly caught himself and brushed his hair away with a finger. "Are you sure?"

I felt myself nod and reach up to the blue pokemon. The metagross crooned in it's metallic voice as I tenderly touched the steel X between it's eyes. I could just reach the bottom part of the space between it's eyes. I gained my confidence and rubbed the steel. The Metagross smiled.

"See?" I turned to Steven. I was aware of the fierce, confident look that had conquered over my soft, round face. Steven noticed it to.

"You're growing" He said "You'll get along fine with any pokemon."
