Authors Note:
Hello Im Dappledvine! Call me Vine though. This is my Novel version of SoulSilver version. Yes I do call Lyra/Katone Soul. Most of the time I hate there English name and manga names, but I like Soul. So what else should I say?
Lumine: Um….You own nothing!
Me: Well yes…
Lumine: Yay! I'm smarter than you.
Me: Shut up you hate every one and every thing, emo.
Lumine: I'm not EMO! *Hides in dark corner*
Me: Emo to me…Well any way you can read.
Sarah/Tristan/Fiona: *Laughing*
Me: Shut up Tristan and Sarah you don't even appear till later. Now read and review before these three do some thing!
I raised my head off my pillow, and then put it back down. I felt a weight and soft fur lying by me and on my neck. "Trace, can you get off of me?" I mumbled at the Espeon. He raised his head and stepped over so his ruby eyes looked at me. He shook him self and leap from my bed to the hardwood floor and prance off, almost knocking the pitch black luxury ball I kept by my nightstand.
Trace trotted out of my room. I sighed, not at all tempted to follow the psychic Pokemon, but knowing I had to. I picked up the black pokeball. It was held by a metal clasp to a silver chain, and made a necklace. I put it on and unhooked the pokeball, I called out the Pokemon in side.
The Umbreon met my gaze, her ears back. I knelt by her. "Lumine." I whispered, her ears twitched at her name. "Come on girl, can you stop being so…grumpy and start acting nice." She shook her fur, like she was saying no. She sat on her hind legs and then stood on them trying to paw the black pokeball.
"No. Not till you eat something." I told her. The moonlight Pokemon made a cuffing noise and walked the way Trace had earlier. I shook my head at them then got changed. I put on my pink long sleeve shirt, and blue jean like overalls. My white socks reached above my knees and my pink shoes matched my white and pink puffy hat. I tied my hair in to pigtails. As I grabbed my tan shoulder bag, there was a crash down stairs.
I ran out of my room and to the stairs. As I was on the last one I saw Lumine on the dining table and Trace on the floor picking himself up and growling up at Lumine. Lumine opened her mouth and a sphere of dark aura appeared and grew. "Lumine!" I yelled at her. The dark attack faded as she glared at me.
I walked into the kitchen where my mom was. "Hi Mom." I greeted. She was making breakfast, as I reached for two bowls one was a light purple, the other black. I poured Pokemon food in each bowl.
"Hi sweetie." My mom said pulling me in to a hug. I let her hug me then I placed the bowls on the floor. Trace happily started eating from his purple bowl. Lumine still sat on the table casting Trace a glare.
I sat in the chair by where Lumine was, she leap down when I was seated as over to her bowl and ate. I picked at the plate of food in front of me. Only eating some of the eggs and toast.
"Ethan was here earlier." My mom said after I had put my plate in the dishwasher.
I looked at her in surprise, she was sitting on the couch and Trace was curled up on her lap. Lumine was still picking at her meal.
"He was?" I looked up at the clock on the wall, it read noon exactly. "Oh Arceus, I'm late." I took the black pokeball from the chain and returned Lumine to it. I clipped the ball back and ran out the door waving to my mom. I was supposed to meet Professor Birch at ten.
I ran out side and nearly tripped over Marill. "Oh Marill." I said picking it up. I made chirping sounds as Ethan ran up, huffing. I laughed at him. He stood up and took the Marill from my arms.
"Thanks Soul!" He said. Then scolded the Marill for running off. The water Pokemon took no regard to what he said but tried to steal his hat. I nodded and turned to walk off as the now re-escaped Marill, now with Ethan's hat, ran off again.
I walked to the lab that wasn't to far from my house. I walked up to the door and a flash of red caught my eye. I looked at the side of the lab. There was a boy; he was clad in a black jacket and blue pants. The jacket had streaks of red on it. He had messy red hair and looked only a year older than me. He was looking in a window of the lab.
I tilted my head and walked over to him. "Hey you! What are you doing by Professor Birch's lab?" The boy jolted and then glared at me with metal eyes. He walked up to me, he was at least a head taller. He grabbed my shoulders and pushed me back.
I managed not to fall; and I gave him a shocked look. "It's none of your business." He growled at me. I flinched at the tone of his voice. He muttered something about being weak, and then went back to what he was doing.
I shrugged it off, and headed back in side the lab. Professor Elm was leaning over the computer, and there was several lab hands running around. On the back wall near where Professor Elm was, was large machine. It had three pokeballs on it.
I closed the door softly, not the startle any one. But a lab hand saw me and called out to the Professor. Elm jumped and turned around quickly before seeing me. "Oh! Soul it's you! Come here, come here." He motioned to the table by him.
I walked over to him, there was a loud beep from his computer and he read the email that popped up. He frowned then looked from the machine holding the pokeballs to me. "Soul, do you mine running an errand for me?" I shook my head.
The professor smiled slightly and then walked over to the large machine. "Here are three Pokemon. I am letting you have on so you'll be safe on the run to Mr. Pokemon's house."
I looked at all of the pokeballs, each was marked with a sticker on it's pillow of what type it was. I reached out and held the pokeball that was marked fire. I released the Pokemon and it looked at me, even if I couldn't see it's eyes.
The professor nodded and looked down at it. "So you chose the Cyndaquil. She is very special as she is a female." I nodded to him and bent down to rub her head. She in turn nuzzled me back.
"How bout I call you Fiona." I murmured to her. She clapped her little paw-hands. I laughed and picked her up. She let out a happy cry and then jumped down and sat by my legs.
"I also want you to keep her out of her ball. I want to see if it effects the relation ship with humans and Pokemon." I nodded at Elm's words. After he told me to be on my way to find Mr. Pokemon, I left.
Fiona trotted along beside me, there was no fire on her back and I took that of a sign she was relaxed. Before I left to tell my mom where I'd be I looked and saw the boy was still there, and I shrugged. "Why did I care, any way? He was rude, or grumpy." I shook my head.
I walked over to my house and let my self in. My mom was watching the news, on the couch. Trace had moved from her lap and was eating Lumine's food. Fiona ran in the house and tackled (not the attack) my mom.
I ran over and picked her up. Fiona struggled slightly in my arms but gave up the fight. My mom laughed "So Professor Elm gave you a pokemon." I nodded setting the now calm Fiona down who just laid by Mom.
"Ya, She's a cyndaquil. I named her Fiona." I said petting said Pokemon as Trace sniffed her and laid my mom. "Jealous boy." I told him rubbing his head. "Oh! Professor Elm also wanted me to run an errand. He wanted me to go pick up something from Mr. Pokemon.
My mom nodded. Then stood up as if remembering something. "That's grate hun. And your pokegear is back from the repair shop." She took the pink and white device from a simple brown box and handed it to me. I placed it in the pocket, on my bag.
After a few minuets I left only to be stopped by Professor Elm. I smiled at him, he was huffing from chasing me down. "Soul, you have a pokegear right." I nodded and pulled it out handing it to him. He put his number in. "In case I need to get in touch with you.
He left and went back to the lab, and I turned and headed down the forest trail to Cherrygrove City. I didn't have much trouble with wild Pokemon, but if there was one Fiona happily battled and won easily.
When I entered Cherrygrove I healed Fiona. As I waited for her I sat on a couch and took Lumine's pokeball of my necklace and rolled it around. The chansey handed me Fiona's pokeball. I thanked her and left walking up the route to Mr. Pokemon's house.
The trip was not that long and I reached the house before noon. I knocked on the door and a middle aged man let me in. "You must be Soul." He said. I gave him a smile.
"Yes sir. Professor Elm sent me to get some thing from you." I told him. He just walked over to a table where an old man was and picked up a white Pokemon egg with blue and red triangles.
The old man looked at the Pokemon beside me and Fiona tilted her head. "So are you a trainer?" He asked. Mr. Pokemon came back and handed he the Pokemon egg to me.
"Um…Ya… I guess so." I told him, he then when in to explain who he was and that he was the famous Professor Oak from Kanto. He handed me a small pink device, to was larger than my Pokegear, but not by much.
"This is a Pokedex, it records information about Pokemon. Since I'm new to Johto would you mind helping to record the data of some of the native Pokemon?" He told me.
"I'd love to." I said flipping the device open and looking at it. I then entered Professor's own number in my Pokegear so I could update him on my progress. I put the Pokedex and the Pokegear in my bag. As soon as the Pokegear was in my bag, it rang. I took it back out and opened it Professor Elm was written on the screen.
"Hello" I said in to the machine.
"Soul! I need you back at the lab! There has be a catastrophe!" The phone clicked off and I stared at it dumbly. Appently Mr. Pokemon and Oak had heard Professor Elm and told me, to go on my way.
I left Mr. Pokemon's house and ran back along the short grass as t not get attacked by an upset Pokemon. I dashed through Cherrygrove and as I was on the route back to the lab I crashed in to something.
I looked up to see the red-haired boy from before, he was breathing hard as if he had been running. "You again!" He growled at me. Fiona tilted her head and looked up at him. He took a pokeball from his belt and held it. He called out the small blue Pokemon, known as Totodile.
"So you want to battle." I said brightly. Fiona jumped happily when she saw Totodile and ran up to him. The two Pokemon jumped and let out happy chirps. I laughed at the two. The boy just looked disgusted.
"You stupid little ass of a Pokemon. I did not call you out to dance around and act like a sissy." The boy yelled at his Pokemon, who flinched then, gave Fiona a sad look. "Now use scratch." The totodile obliged and lunged at Fiona with his sharp claws.
I told Fiona to dodge just in time the to attack with a tackle. The battle when on like that for some time till the boy's Pokemon fainted. Fiona held her head proudly and then trotted back to my side. I gave her a big hug.
The boy then stormed off. I leaned down and kissed the top of Fiona's head. "He's quite a sour loser, Fio. And that was cruel how he cursed at his partner." I sat Fiona down and was about to walk off when something caught my eye. I bent down and picked it up.
It was small trainer card with a picture of the red haired boy. He name was on the top of it. 'Silver' it read. I felt the card snatched from me. I looked up at the boy, Silver. He glowered at me. "I'll take that." He snarled before storming off.
I gave him a half smile, "Bye Silver. Hope I see you again." I called happily, before heading back to the lab. When I got there, their where several policemen in the lab. Professor Elm and Ethan where talking to one. He was describing that a person had stolen one of his Pokemon. Fiona brightened at the sight of her former master and ran over to him. The officer who was talking to Elm stopped when he saw the starter running to Elm then turned to me.
He walked up to me and grabbed my wrist hard. He jerked me up so I was on my toes. "It was very dumb of you to come back here, girl." I blinked in surprise, and behind him I saw Ethan's shocked face as he ran up grabbed the police officers arm.
"Soul's innocent! She didn't steal that cyndaquil. Professor Elm gave it to her." Ethan yelled at the officer. The officer look at Elm, who nodded still shocked. Fiona had gotten out of his grip and was now biting my sock gently trying to make the officer let me go. The officer let go of my wrist and I dropped back down on to the full of my feet.
"Sorry, miss" The officer said. I rubbed my wrist. "You had one of the starters so I assumed you where the crook." I looked at the table and saw that there was only one pokeball left.
"I met some one with a starter, he had a totodile." I told the officer. "He was on the way toward Violet City. I got his name if that's any help. Silver, like the metal, was his name." The officer nodded and called the rest of the squad on his walky-talky, than he and the other officers left.
Ethan gave me a concerned look, "You okay Soul?" I nodded and gave him a half hug. Then picked Fiona up she sniffed me as if to see if I was okay, before chirping happily. Marill unhappy as to being forgotten ran to Ethan and asked to be held, Ethan obliged. Marill once again took Ethan's hat, jumped down and ran off. "Got to go." He said before giving chase.
"Soul may I see Fiona for a moment." Elm asked. I nodded and handed the fire starter to him. She looked at him then to me with a sad look. "She really seems close to you. You know about the Gym challenge, I'm sure." I nodded to the professor. "You should take it on, I can tell you and your Pokemon will have strong bonds. Here." He handed me four pokeballs. I took the empty capsules in my bag. "Luck be with you!" He said as I left.
I looked down the road to where Cherrygrove then on to Violet City was. I knew that this was my journey and I was about to embark on it. "Let's go Fiona." I told the fire type she looked at me and we left on my-our journey.
