Authors Note: Hey lovely readers. First and foremost I wish to inform you that I appreciate any views this story actually gets since we all know how easy it is to not be drawn in by absolutely horrible summaries like the one I made. Secondly, I want you to know up front this is a crossover story based in the world of skyrim with all the same races, fighting, guilds, rebels and all that fun stuff. However all the animals (dragons included) have been swapped for pokemon. Why? Because it seemed fun to me at the time. This was originally published in the crossover section but after only getting like 18 views in a month I decided to try it here. So basically my final hope is that you will give it a chance. I know not everyone likes pokemon but Tab and Kat do their best to entertain you.

Chapter 1

Looking out the side of the wagon I sighed heavily as carriage bounced along the road. I hated carriages. They bounced like crazy and the damn Ponyta's made noise every five seconds not to mention the fact that I couldn't stretch out my legs without risking falling out of the thing or falling on someone else.

I watched in silence as the countryside rolled by just waiting to reach our destination. We had been in this wagon for two days, not including stops for camping and water for the Ponyta's and it was getting old. We were on the move from Windhelm to Winterhold in yet another desperate chance to take the city for the Stormcloaks. Unfortunately most of us couldn't afford our own transportation so we had to settle for riding in the carriage.

"If you keep staring like that you're going to start shooting hyper beams from your eyes," Katarina told me as she looked at me across the carriage. Kat, as I preferred to call her was my best friend and we had fought together ever since we had joined the Stormcloaks when we were only sixteen. Time hadn't changed us to much, she still called me a hillbilly being that I'm from Riverwood and I still told her she was a stuck up bitch given that she was from Solitude. Really she wasn't to bad most of the time but I couldn't help but dream of murdering her whenever she woke me up in the middle of the night to complain about my snoring. Sin didn't seem to mind. Then again Sin liked to snore too.

Sin is my Pokemon. He's a Houndoom and I've had him since I was eleven and I found him hiding from the cold in the Miltank barn. He was a Houndour back then but I was happy to have myself a companion to call my own. Over time we fought off wild Pokemon that threatened the farm or, when I was older, we began killing people. Tax collectors, Imperials and guards tended to give my family a hard time so Sin and I kept them away.

Looking down at my feet I smiled at the sight of Sin sprawled out on the carriage floor waiting for the ride to end. The poor thing got terrible motion sickness and was always difficult to ride with especially if we were crossing mountain ranges, the bumps were always worse there.

Next to Sin was Kat's Leipard, Leo, a purple and yellow coloured creature with an air of superiority. Not that I would expect less from the Pokemon. It had proved time and time again that it's stealth was undeniable but it's attitude made me want to throw it under the carriage. Still it had been raised in Solitude with Kat since she was ten so I was just impressed it knew how to fight. Then again the nobles of Skyrim were notorious for fighting their Pokemon to see whose was stronger.

I never understood the ideals of 'high society' especially when they decided to go Ursaring baiting. They tied up an Ursaring and poked at it with sharp sticks for fun. FUN! I might be just a farmers daughter but that seemed wrong. The poor things weren't even able to defend themselves and then they would send in Mightyena's to kill it. I can't say that I haven't killed an Ursaring but those that I killed tried to kill me and I couldn't out run them.

"If I could shoot hyper beams from my eyes I would make a lot more money performing than working in this travelling circus of horrors," I finally replied to Kat.

"You're a downer Tabitha. You know that right?" Kat told me as my eyes wandered down to see Leo coughing up a hairball next to Sin's head.

"I might be a downer but at least my Pokemon doesn't upchuck those nasty globs of hair," I replied as the sound started to make me gag.

Kat lifted the cat so it chucked it's hairball out of the carriage. It was an impressive feat given that the Pokemon weighed probably 80 pounds but we were used to that. At any given time we were hauling around 20 pounds of armour, about 30 pounds in weaponry, the survival gear and what ever we could manage to snag off of the corpses of our enemies. it might sound dreary but we made a lot of money her and I just stealing the coins off of the people we killed. Rebels didn't get much for a salary and I really wanted to buy a nice house. Or a good house. Basically anything that didn't smell like Miltank was acceptable.

As Leo was tossing his hair over the side of the carriage the aforementioned carriage came to a sudden and complete halt making Kat and Leo topple on top of me as Kat lost her balance.

Yelling a string of curses at the pair as I shoved them off of me I managed to get to my feet before I heard our Commander bellowing orders at the company. Hopping out of the wagon, quickly followed by Sin who was just grateful to be out of the moving contraption, I made my way to the front of the carriage line where I saw something I had not expected, dragons. Not just A dragon. Oh no. Tons of them. Charizards, Dragonites, and

Hydreigons were flying every direction and the one that worried me the most was that our small force of twenty five had two Charizards, a Dragonite and three Hydreigons headed our way. Our regiment wasn't completely incompetent but our commanding officer pretty well was. He was trying to save the carriages and supplies by sending them away before we had even had a chance to get our stuff.

Cursing the man's stupidity in a time of crisis I ran back to the carriage to grab Kat and my weapons. Well Leo too but only because I didn't want to deal with Kat whining about her Pokemon for the next year and a half. Bloody drama queen, though she would say the same thing about me.

"Kat get your shit in order we have incoming dragons," I shouted over the clamour of soldiers grabbing their stuff while the carriages pulled away. Such a stupid plan, leaving the carriages defenceless. There would be a lot of destroyed supplies littering the road soon.

"You have got to be kidding me Tab," Katarine yelled back at me. "We haven't had dragons here for hundreds of years!"

"Fine," I told her as I pulled on my quiver of ebony arrows. "You can sit here and get roasted by that Charizard. What do I care?" Pointing toward the roaring Charizard that was just coming into view I watched as Kat stared in disbelief before packing faster than anyone I have ever seen.

Strapping my sword to my side for a back up plan I double checked all the straps on my armour before grabbing my bow. The bow wasn't much and definitely was not made for the nice ebony arrows I has stolen off a corpse but it fired the things which was all I needed.

Making sure Kat was ready I whistled for Sin before running once more to where the front of the carriages had been moments before. Notching an arrow I stood ready, waiting for a chance to have the beast in range while Kat stood with her massive bastard sword thrown over her shoulder. It always made me laugh to see the five foot eight Kat with a sword almost her size chilling like it weighed absolutely nothing. I assumed magic was involved but she refused to tell me so I had stopped asking.

As the Charizard flew into my range I aimed for it's heart and loosed the arrow. The whole company waited with it's breath held as the arrow flew straight and true. It went straight to where the monster's heart was before bouncing off the scales. Cursing I notched another arrow as the dragon dove at us. Letting the ebony shaft fly I watched it completely miss the creature. I was shaking. Normally in combat I could keep a cool head but the dragon was diving right at me. It filled my vision and it was on me before I could even notch another arrow. I couldn't help but think that this was a crappy way to die. The first time dragons are seen in hundreds of years and I'm one of the first victims. Well that sucked.

AN: See, it wasn't so bad. And if I get like three reviews that are not complete hate or some follows I will post the next chapter so you don't have to deal with the cliffhanger.
