The chain was a large cluster of islands that were recently discovered. The strange thing about them was each island was vastly diffrent from each other. While one was a large desert another right next to it was a frozen tundra. Nobody could explain it. The islands were home to tribes of wild pokemon that attacked on site. But for the brave these islands were a treasure trove for adventure.
There sat a lone Delphox reading a book while on a ship. He lowered it to look of to the side seeing the main island of The Chain, a large jungle with a huge tree in the middle, his destination, his new home.
It had been about two years since The Chain was discovered and many guilds and rescue teams had built bases there, even normal Pokemon built there homes there to get away and start anew. But this Delphox wasn't here by choice.
His name was Agni and he was ex-bandit he wanted out so he faked his death and came here knowing that his past wouldn't follow.
The ship had docked at the edge of town and there was he got off and looked at what was once a exploration team's HQ. He didn't care what happened to them this was all his now. He used all his money for supplies and this place so he'd be alone. Then a door fell off it's hinge.
"Well guess I better fix this place up." Agni said to himself before going to the main building which probably belonged to the last owners leader. He took a look inside finding a bathroom, bedroom, living room, and a office.
"This place isn't too bad." He began to put all his stuff down cleaning the bedroom and bathroom first. The only real problem was all the paper in the office that belonged to the guild. It would serve as good tinder for a fire. Then he spotted blank applications. The ex-bandit looked at them for a while before putting them in the desk and sitting in the chair that was at it. Then he sighed before getting up and continued to clean for the rest of the day.
A few days later*
Agni had finally finished clearing all the trash and broken building parts. Then he had rebuilt almost every building. He didn't know why it wasn't like anyone would come out here anyways, even though a town was a safe walk away.
But he was out of food and needed to get some. During his cleaning he found a good amount of money so he could get more food. So he went into town with a pouch full of money. The walk wasn't long only ten minutes. But when he got into town he realised how much bigger the town was. Hell there were even two guilds here. First a branch of a major treasure hunting guild: The Golden Troup. then the second a much smaller new guild: The Rising Flame which was strangely ran by a Charmander.
He hoped that nobody would recogniz him as he quickly went by. Agni found a small shop being ran by a riolu. She had apples, spices, and meats. She looked up at him with a smile.
"Hello sir how can I help you?" She said with a smile her voice young and sweet. Agni looked shocked to see what seemed to be a young girl by herself.
"Oh um hello there are you in charge of this cart?" He asked a little confused. She nodded. "Yup I run this place all by myself!" She exclaimed proudly.
"Well I'll take some salt, meat, and three apples." He gave her the money for the food before going back home. Once home he salted some of the meat to make it last longer before he started to cook. While looking back into the nearby jungle as the sun set.
"Well i guess this is my life from now on." He said out loud before checking on the cooking meat.
The night was warm as Agni slept the only light coming from the fire outside he had used to cook and the moon above. Then there was a noise a loud one at that. Someone must of gone into one of the other houses from the way it had sounded. He got up and was ready for a fight.
He got to the hut and quietly opened the door and snuck inside. That's when he picked up a strange scent of fruit and meat. He followed the scent to a bedroom then he steeled himself below barging into the room and with a loud feminine yell there was the Riolu in bed covering her self from her 'attacker'. As he pounced on her.
"What the hell are you doing?!?" She yelled at Agni.
"What am I doing? What are you doing in my home!?!" He yelled back.
"Your home? I've been coming here every night for the last three months." She explained calming down as the male got off of her then she sat up.
"Well i just bought this place a few weeks ago. Technically I own this full base." Agni told the as he sat on the bed with her.
"Well if I'm gonna live here? Can i join your guild?" She asked with a hint of joy in her voice.
"Join my guild?!" He said almost screaming once more.
( A.N. )Well this is my first story as you can see it's a mystery dungeon story but trust me it'll be much different then anything in the games. For example people might die weapons will be used and all sorts of other things as well! So constructive criticisms and flames of how shitty my writing is will both be accepted lol well see ya next chapter.
