Broken Wings

Chapter One: A Bird without Wings is like
A Human without a Heart

The sun was shining brightly, the gentle breeze blowing in the harmonious Fortree City as children were playing games and adults, young and old were getting ready for their normal routine of the day. The city seemed peaceful and cheerful, but for the Flying-type gym leader, Winona was the exact opposite than anyone else's day. She wasn't her cheerful self today as if someone knocked her out the sky.

She walked close to a riverbank that was outside of Fortree City, she continued to sulk until she took a stop to look at her reflection in the crystal blue water and sat down on the soft green grass. She continued to stare at her reflection lost in thought with no life in her sorrowful eyes. Her eyes began to swell up as a single tear drop fell on the surface of the water causing ripples to form. Her mind reminded back to what happened earlier that day. It was a tragic moment she had experienced in her young adult life.

Start of Flashback:

Wallace and Winona were at her house, sitting next to each other on the couch in the living room. They were giggling, teasing each other while having a conversation like any regular couple. However, Wallace had a gloomy expression on his face as if he was dueling with unpleasant thoughts. Winona noticed his tense stance, wondering what is troubling her turquoise-headed and eyed boyfriend. She asked for his moral in a concerned voice.

"Wallace dear is there something wrong?" Wallace looked straight into her lavender eyes.

"Winona… This isn't working out," Wallace sighed.

"What do you mean?" Winona asked in confusion. She felt her heart clenched as if a giant hand squeezed in its firm grasp, never letting go.

"What I mean is…" all of a sudden her clenching was getting even tighter and tighter, close to cracking until…

"It's over."

After he breathed out those shocking words, she felt her heart-break into small pieces and her entire world plunged into the depths of darkness.

"Why?" she sadly whispered it, but was loud enough for Wallace to hear.

"Well, we are simply too incompatible." when she heard that her bitter tears slowly started to flow down her cheeks.

"I can't ask you to forgive me, but I'm sorry." said Wallace as he got up and left leaving Winona alone crying.

Her knees gave out once he left her house, out of her life. Her body trembled violently in her crumpled state.

End of Flashback:

Winona started to cry furiously as more tears rapidly flowed down her cheeks and into water causing even more ripples. Also her body began to shake as she thought about what happened. "How are we incompatible?" she questioned herself then a trainer from her gym found her and said "Winona, you have a challenger waiting for you at the gym." She heard as she wiped her tears quickly and replied without turning around with no emotion in her voice, but sadness "I'll be right there you go on ahead." The gym trainer was suspicious about what was wrong with her, but didn't ask he went on to the gym. She wasn't in the mood for battles today of all days, but left for the gym to get it over.

Before Winona entered she felt like she being drawn by the presence beyond those doors waiting for her arrival. Each foot step she took she felt her heart pulse going faster as she began to open the doors. As fate would have it, but she doesn't know at the moment, a boy around the age of sixteen wearing a white hat turned around and greeted her with his ecstatic smile.

"Hello you must be Winona the Fortree City gym leader right?"

"Yes." Winona said in a neutral tone

"My name is Brendan and I challenge you to a battle." he said with determination in voice.

"Very well, come this way." said Winona with a little sadness in her voice

Brendan noticed her tone and knew there was something amiss, but ignored it for now as he followed her to the arena. Winona didn't care if she lost to him or not since she so down-spirited. They arrived at the arena; Brendan scanned the area in amazement.

"If you want a battle, then lets battle." Winona said in a depressed tone again.


This is my first-ever fan fiction so I don't expect all you who read it to like it. Also I don't like when I made Wallace dump Winona like that, but I hope you enjoy it.
