Edit: 10th October 2012 - Wow, okay, I truly am sorry for never uploading more chapters. I doubt anyone reads this, but so you all know, I plan to re-write every chapter of every story. Adding more detail, revising, editing, more content, overall, making it a much better story. I really hope you would be willing to read the new versions which I hope to begin writing soon. Thank you so much

I don't own Pokemon

I came up with this idea a while ago, but I never got to chance to start working on it. Thank you for reading! Please let me know what you think, if there are any errors or if any clarifications are needed. Thank you!

"Mahogany Town, we're almost there Meganium!" Lyra happily told her Pokemon.

Lyra was traveling to obtain all the gym badges and become the champion. When she left New Bark Town with her starter, Chickorita, she was only running errands for Professor Elm, but he suggested she battle and train to reach the top.

With just two badges until the Pokemon League, Lyra and her friends were ecstatic!

However, when they arrived at the Mahogany Town Gym, they discovered the gym leader was not there.

"I guess we'll head up to the Lake Of Rage and train, that way we can get this badge without a doubt!" Lyra was pumped and ready to train hard with her Pokemon.

It was down poring when Lyra arrived at the Lake Of Rage.

"ROAR!"

The ground below Lyra and Meganium shock powerfully.

"AHH!" Lyra was thrown backwards by the quake.

"Don't worry, I've got you," a voice belonging to the person who caught her spoke.

Lyra turned her head and found herself starring into a pair of beautiful pale blue eyes. The owner of those eyes was a tall boy around nineteen years old. His hair was spiked and a reddish-pink hue.

Lyra hugged him tightly as the ground, once again, began to violently tremble. She buried her head into the boy's chest, for the ground showed no signs of stopping.

"It's alright, the ground's calm. I don't believe it's going to continue shaking." He was stroking Lyra's light brown hair to reassure her.

"T-thank you," Lyra began to pull away. "M-my names is Lyra."

"Lance. Are you alright?" Lyra nodded. "Good. Oh, here, you're soaking wet, use this to keep warm." Lance took off his cape and wrapped it around Lyra.

"Thank you." She turned to look for Meganium and found him happily playing in the rain. "Hehe, you look like you're having fun, Meganium.

Lance smiled at Lyra as she laughed at her Pokemon play.

"Lyra, you see that Pokemon over in the middle of the lake," Lance pointed for Lyra. "That's a Red Gyarados. That Gyarados is causing this terrible storm. I need you to go and calm it down. Please, I know you can do it, come back when you're done. I'll need your help with another favor."
