The Chaos Chronicles: Uprising
Prelude:
The world began in light,
It will end in darkness.
The world began with water
It will end with fire.
The world was first split into kingdoms
Those kingdoms will crumble.
The crumbling starts.
The world will fall apart.
Unless it can be stopped.
…
Once upon a time…there were three great kingdoms.
Before the kingdoms was the Beginning, and the beginning was chaos. The Pokémon of the humanless world didn't have the sentience to organize themselves, and in this wild, unclaimed land was one law, the law of instinct. Eat or Be Eaten, Survive or Die. The Pokémon of this world were born with only one thought, and they lived with only one thought; survive.
The chaos continued to ravage the world and the Pokémon until a spirit came. This had been the same spirit that had first formed the waters of this brave new world. He was displeased with the Pokémon's wild nature, so he gave them the gift of intelligence. It spread through their eyes in an instant.
They soon formed their own communities and tribes, and worked together to form new things. But the world was still disjointed and irrational, and all the communities were split with no form of organization or control. The laws had expanded, but the overarching law still applied; Eat or Be Eaten, Survive of Die.
The chaos, with time, would be subdued and their land, for a brief time, was at peace.
But that chaos would come again and again and threaten to make the world crumble. The first chaos after the gift of intelligence came in the form of a great war, a war that ravaged the newly peaceful land. A war between all Pokémon; not even a newly hatched Pokémon was free from the terror that ravaged that ancient land.
There were three sides to the terrible and ancient war, the first side was led by the mighty Luxray and his tribes. The second side was led by the burning Pyroar, and the last led by the swift Liepard. They fought to a standstill, the rivers flowing with blood spilled in the old and deadly battle.
Finally, after a decade of strife, they were stopped. It was then that the spirit returned once more with a new gift; the gift of organization. He calmed the storm of battle and helped the three generals find peace.
They came together and split the land into three sections. The snowy and mountainous region to the far north came under the rule of the Pyroar, and was named Yogan. The region to the south west, filled with deserts, plains, and beaches, was taken by the Liepard, and named Kurai. Finally, the forest-filled region of the south east was taken by the Luxray, and named Denkou. There was a new law now, the law had changed from Survive to Live.
The spirit had split up these kingdoms himself, leaving these specific instructions written on scrolls in gold ink. These scrolls were put inside a shrine, which was guarded by six masters.
These six masters were the founders of the six ancient arts of battle.
The first art was called Kiba Moretsuna, the art of battling with fangs. This master's teeth were sharp, deadly, and fast. He could kill opponents without them ever even feeling his attacks. He was called the "Master of Subtlety", for his ability to kill his opponents without them ever even sensing his presence.
The second art was called Tsume Satsugai, the art of exposing the opponent's weak points and using them to kill and seriously main the opponent, with emphasis on claws as the weapons. This master could find every weak point in his opponent's defense and use those weak spots to kill and maim quickly and efficiently. This master was known as the "Master of Murder", for his ability to kill.
The third was known as Chisoku Ikusei, or the art of refining the body into a temple of speed, agility, and flexibility. This master could use his swift, graceful movements to avoid nearly any attack, and he used his opponent's own power against them. This master earned the nickname "Master of Invincibility" for a legend states that he was never hurt in battle.
The fourth art was called Bokushingu, the art of strength and brute force using limbs. This master could take any attack without dying and kill his opponent with pure power. The master was often known as the "Master of Death", for he would rise even after taking blows that would kill any normal Pokémon.
The fifth art was Katana Shura, the art of fighting with weapons. This master could take any object and turn it into a weapon with deadly force, especially blades. These masters were also experts at using their own moves and wielding them like weapons. The first master of this at was called the "Master of Swords" for his ability with blades.
The sixth art was known as Chikara Suuchuu, the art of focusing and channeling energy. This master had the ability to release and store massive amounts of natural energy in such a way that his opponents were sometimes completely dissolved after an attack. He was called the "Master of Focus" because he never lost concentration.
These masters ruled peacefully and had several apprentices, passing on their title of "Master" to their most promising apprentice. The apprentices were not limited to one art, and several became experts in many but masters of none, or experts in some and a master of one, or a jack of all arts and a master of none.
This was when another chaos started. This chaos was the dissent between the masters. Nobody knows exactly why the split happened, but it led it a terrible and bloody six-way war between the experts and masters of a different art. It is said that the master of Chikara Suuchuu wrote down his account on the split, but his record has never been found.
Eventually the masters halted their foolish war and assigned several experts to guard the shrine that they once did. The experts had to have expert status in three or more arts in order to gain the worthy title, and the experts trained more experts and passed down their knowledge. The experts they trained would take over in the guarding of the shrine.
As for the masters, they scattered themselves to the corners of the world and trained other Pokémon in their art, but never again would all six masters be in the same area, in fear of chaos crumbling down once more. The Pokémon they trained came to be known as ninjas, and the ninjas that guarded the shrine were the most feared of all.
After this last big chaos, no more happened. Smaller wars and skirmishes broke out, but the chaos subsided for hundreds of years.
Until now.
The chaos is returning, and the crumbling will begin soon. Unless it can be stopped, the world of the Pokémon will fall to war and destruction.
It will begin with a traitor and murder, and an outcast.

NOTE:
Welcome to the cream of the crop of my new stories. This is my own personal world and is not purposefully taken from anyone, and any similarities to other stories is purely coincidental unless otherwise stated by me. I do not own Pokémon, either.
This story will contain much more gore, language, and sexual themes than my other stories, so it may be rated M eventually. My other stories will also start to be updated less, as this is the story I REALLY want to develop and focus on! I've been wanting to do a story in this style, where Pokémon can be killed in a single hit, for a long time, and finally it's here. I may also write some spin-offs and/or sequels depending on how inspired I get…
That being said…I am going to take a much more reader-inspired take on this fic, and I will need all of your help to decide how this story plays out in the end. So, without further ado, please create your own OC! If you create it now, there is a good chance that your OC will become a reoccurring character, or possibly a main character! I will constantly accept oc's until further notice.
Check my profile for the OC form! You must PM the form if you are a member, and if you are a guest you may review it, but I will tweak your character however I see fit without consulting you. Sorry.
Also, here is a question for you all to ponder and comment upon. I would love to get everyone's opinion on this, and that goes for you Guests lurking here too! Thank you to everyone for reading, and a cookie for everyone who reviews! Love you all!
Which art sounds the most awesome to you and why?
