Stormy Skies: A Pokemon Mystery Dungeon story.
Chapter One
"Ohhhhh. My head," I groaned softly as I slowly came back into consciousness. A loud, rushing sound crashed against my ears. I opened my eyes- to find myself staring into the bright green gaze of another.
"Agh!" I shouted, scrabbling backwards in the sand. The stranger- who turned out to be a green, leafy lizard that I recognized as a Treecko- jumped back as well, startled.
He stared at me with what looked like concern, a slightly troubled frown on his long muzzle. But it was when he opened his mouth that I became truly frightened.
"You alright? I saw you passed out on the beach," he said, voice husky and curious.
I couldn't help it- I let out another yelp, to which he jumped at once more."What is it?" he asked, spinning around in search of whatever had scared me. My eyes were all for him though.
"You- you talked," I finally stammered, knowing my eyes were probably huge. He turned to look at me in confusion.
"Yeah, what of it?"
"But you're a Treecko! A Pokemon!"
His confusion seemed to grow, as well as a certain amount of wariness.
"Yes.. And you're a Pikachu. Again, what of it?" he asked flatly- clearly I had managed to offend him.
I spluttered. "Pikachu? I'm a human, you blind fool!" I exclaimed. But I couldn't help but shift my weight, lifting my hands to peer at them.
Yellow fur covered my hands- or, should I say, paws. Short, Four sharp claws tipped off each finger. Startled, I flexed them, feeling my heartbeat take off like a rocket.
"Is this is a dream?" That was the only explanation I could come up with as I inspected my newfound body.
I felt something twitch on my head and, peering into a tide pool nearby- for I had washed up on a beach- found myself looking at a small yellow rodent with red cheeks and large ears. And, twisting around, was the worst of all- a huge, lightning-shaped tail with a notch in the end.
Hearing a muffled guffaw nearby, I spun around, paws clenched into fists. The Treecko was still here, and was starting at me in a mixture of amusement and caution.
"I think I'd know a human if I saw one. You're definitely a Pikachu," he claimed, snickering slightly
That was, until my cheeks started sparking. I guess they did that when I got pissed off.
He raised his hands in a sign of innocence, backing off. Seems he was smarter than he looked. "Sorry, sorry," he apologized quickly. He glared at him, snorting.
"When I wake up, I'm going to strangle you."
Now THAT got him running.
