Curse of a Murkrow
Chapter 1
Summary: 10 year old Mizu Kunisaki doesn't believe in the legend about being cursed looking at a grey Murkrow at night but what if she did see one? Now she and her Pokemon, who are cursed, must find a way to break the curse, fight of a new team and meet rivals and friends. (Thanks to Fuwa2 Kyara for the Murkrow idea!)
Time to begin the story!
Mizu's P.O.V
"Mizu Kunisaki, would you please pay attention to class!"
10 year old Mizu Kunisaki jumped out of her seat and replied:
"I'm sorry Mrs. Lee, it won't happen ever again!"
I looked around my class and saw them mostly laughing at me.
Mrs. Lee sighed. "What am I going to do with you? You said that for the past 2 weeks but you never do it."
"I'm really sorry Mrs. Lee; it's just that I'm really exhausted from helping my parents breed Eevee's." I said while pretending to yawn.
My parents own a breeding house for Eevee and their evolution stages. We breed other pokemons but Eevees are the most common.
"Just as I thought, ok fine, but please pay attention to class." my teacher said to me while walking away.
As the day goes by, all I can think of is my starter Pokemon. Yes, that's right; I'm starting my pokemon journey tomorrow. In Evo Town, we get to choose our starter pokemon from Professor Maple. One time, when I was watching t.v, I saw her explain to the new trainers about the starter pokemons for both girls and boys. In Evo Town, we separate the pokemon into a girl side and a boy side. She picks the starter pokemon that the girls like and the starter pokemon that the boys like. I remember her saying that one of the starter pokemons for the girl side is an Eevee. The Eevee is from our breeding house. Another starter pokemon I heard her say is a Vulpix. I imagine about the red fur of the Vulpix. The beautiful six tails it has. I was thinking of getting the Vulpix. And if I'm correct, the last one should be a Skitty. The little pink pokemon is said to easily make people happy with its cheerful cry and smile. The boys get to choose an Eevee, a Squirtle and a Trapinch. As I continue to daydream, I couldn't hear Mrs. Lee calling me until….
"Mizu Kunisaki, pay attention to class!" she yelled while slamming the ruler on my table.
"Yes ma'am!" I cried as I jumped off my seat again.
Somewhere on a unknown island
"Sir, we have located the breeding facility as you commanded."
"Excellent work, prepare the minions. We will strike tonight."
"Yes Sir!"
Back to Evo Town
"Man, this is great! I'm finally let out of the school!" I yelled as I stretched my arms.
"Yeah, you should be happy. You leave tomorrow for your pokemon journey. Lucky kid." said my friend Alice.
"Hey, I'm no kid, you're a kid. Anyway, you can't call me a kid because you're two years younger then me." I yelled as I started to chase her down the streets.
"Catch me if you can. I have to go to the breeding center anyways." Alice replied and headed towards the breeding center.
"What! Says who!" I yelled back and started to catch up.
"Says your mom, she wanted more help around the center when you go to your pokemon journey so she asked me to help out." she replied.
"No fair!" I cried and ran to my house.
Once we got there, my mom did her daily job, cooking a snack for me when I come home from school, then going to treat the Eevees and its evolution forms, then make dinner and then the night watch every two hours. She has to do this with my dad so they take turns.
"Hi honey, how was school?" my mother asked me.
"Just fun, actually, bored out of my wits." I replied and ran to the center with Alice.
Once we got there, the Eevee's came and jumped on us. They licked our face and wanted us to feed them.
"Ok, ok...hey that tickles! Ok, if you get off, I can feed you."
They listened to my orders and got off and ran to the feeding grounds with the other. They patiently waited for me and when I got there, I took out there dishes and fed them one by one. The Eevees happily ate while I watched them.
"Hey squirt, you ready for your first pokemon?"
I turned around to see my dad. He smirked at me and laughed. I never really liked it when he calls me squirt in front of my friends but he does it for fun.
"Not funny dad but what did you mean by my first pokemon?" I asked him.
"Oh, didn't your mother tell you? Prof. Maple came to our house and told us that she wants you to reserve your first pokemon." my dad replied.
Evo Town are different from the other towns in the Kanto and Johto region. In the Arcturus Region, the one I'm living on right now has a special rule about starter pokemon. You have to reserve a starter pokemon the day before your journey so no one would take your reserved pokemon. Since there are only three starter pokemon, we have to quickly go and tell Prof. Maple before your journey or you have to wait for 2 weeks before the next set of starter pokemon comes.
"Oh yea, I forgot. I have to go now!" I cried and I quickly ran out the door.
Prof. Maple's house is just down my street and when I got there, I rung the door bell, waiting for her to open the door. When she did, she smiled at me and said:
"Welcome, I take that you are here to choose your first pokemon."
"Yes Prof. Maple." I replied.
"Then come this way." She said and brought me to this room.
In the middle of the room, there was three pokeballs.
"Choose your pokemon then tomorrow, you can come to pick it up." she replied and released the three pokemon. Like what I saw on t.v, there was an Eevee, a Skitty and a Vulpix.
"It took me a long time to decide but I decided to get an Eevee." I said.
I gently lifted the Eevee and petted it. It knows me from the center so I'm familiar to them.
"Good choice. I'll reserve this Eevee for you and tomorrow you can come to pick it up." she said and returned the starter pokemons back in the pokeballs.
I said thanks and left the lab to see it was night. While I was walking home, I heard a large commotion down at the breeding center. I quickly ran to the center and saw men with black clothing with some pretty strong pokemon.
"What's with all this commotion?" I thought as I got closer to the group.
What shocked me was that the men were tying up my parents and the people who work in the center. I got mad and wanted to do something until a pokeball rolled to my feet.
"Just my luck!" I thought and jumped out of the bushes.
"Let my parents go!" I yelled and threw my pokeball. "Go Espeon!"
The evolution of Eevee came out of the pokeball in a flash and stared right at the goons who tied up my parents. It looked like a purple cat with a red ruby on its head. Its ears were long for hearing far away places and it's the fourth of the five different evolutions of Eevee. I knew this is a good pokemon because it can predict the foe's next move.
"Heh, looks likes we left a little runt behind. Come here so you can join your parents." one of the black cape man said.
"I don't think so! Espeon, Hypnosis!" I commanded.
Espeon's eyes started to glow purple and instantly, the goons fell asleep. We ran towards my parents but were stopped by the goon's pokemon.
"Woah, we have to get past! Espeon, Psybeam then Hypnosis!" I commanded once again.
A purple beam shot out of Espeon's eyes and hit the pokemons. When they were weakened, Espeon used hypnosis and got them to fall asleep.
"Alright, good job Espeon, return." I said and Espeon disappeared in the pokeball in a red light.
I ran to my parents and untied them. I took the rope and tied up the goons and returned their sleeping pokemon to their pokeballs. Then I released the captured pokemon from the center and took them back to the center. While I was doing, I heard a "Murk" sound and looked up to the tree and saw a Murkrow, but this Murkrow is different from the other Murkrow I seen. Instead of it being dark blue, it's grey.
"What an unusual Murkrow….oh well, better continue on my job." I thought.
Suddenly I remembered something my teacher told the class. She told us that looking at an unusual Murkrow at night can call upon a curse at you. Rumors have it that the Murkrow is grey instead of dark blue, but I never really believed in these things. So I just ignored it and carried on with my job. Suddenly, I felt a sudden dizziness but quickly shook it off and continued. After getting all the pokemon back in the center, my mom suggested that I take a bath. I agreed and went back in the house. When I got my clothes, I went in the bathroom. I opened the water and let the water flow around my body. I felt the heat and warmth of the water beginning to calm me but when I wanted to lift my leg, I couldn't. I felt that my legs were tied together then when I lift both my leg up, something surprised me and I yelled:
"WHAT THE HELL!"
I'll try to update this as soon as possible but it's really hard to since I have so much studying to do! So wait and I'll try to update soon! Review!
