Hiyas all! This be my first pkmn fic, but not me first fic… my first fic bombed… anywho, I am glad to introduce a story that I have had in my head for God knows how long… (5 years?)… it just took me forever to actually put it down onto paper. It gets sorta complicated, so if neone has ne questions (love Internet speaking) please place them in the reviews and I will answer when the next chappie comes out in the author's notes. Got Vampires: the Masquerade Bloodlines yesterday… (short is VTM:B) having fun so far… alright, so, here begins the story, and I hope that you all enjoy it!
Legends are created to spur people's imaginations and give them something to believe in.
Illauna, Legend Hunter
The Legend of the Human Pokemon goes back almost to the beginning of time, if not at the very beginning. There is supposedly a pokemon wandering the earth as a human, but does not know what he or she really is. Only twice in the time frame of the earth has a strangely beautiful pokemon ever shown up. Many people disregard this particular legend because it seems so far-fetched. However, our story does not begin with the Human Pokemon itself, it begins the day a young girl begins her journey as a trainer…
Santia's alarm clock rang at 10:00 in the morning. Santia grumbled, rolled over in her bed, and knocked the clock on the floor in an attempt to stop the ringing. She rolled back over in frustration, then struggled to get out of bed. I shouldn't have stayed up so late she thought. She rolled out of bed onto the floor, her brown hair looking like something a horror movie star would wear. After turning off her alarm clock, she scratched her head sleepily and staggered over to the bathroom. The sudden cold blast of the shower water woke her up abruptly, and her hand shot for the handle. Her hand came in contact with the handle, but her index finger was jammed. Cursing quietly to herself, she warmed the water up and washed her hair. After drying her hair and fixing it into her usual style (straight down), she wandered downstairs for breakfast where her dad was waiting. "Today's a big day for you, Santia. Your beginning your journey as a trainer today. You already know that comes with big responsibilities. All your mom and I can say is, good luck." Smiling, her dad stepped aside and let Santia pass to the breakfast table, where a big stack of pancakes waited for her. Santia was born with a huge appetite, but she never seemed to gain any extra weight. So, in about 5 minutes, the stack was gone and Santia was out the door on her way to Professor Birch's lab. It was a perfect day to start her day as a trainer; the sky was blue and cloudless, the taillow were chirping, all seemed to be perfect. SEEMED to be. The ground trembling disturbed the peace. Suddenly a large tauros burst out from the brush and charged towards Santia, knocking her down gently.
Santia had raised that tauros since he was a calf, so she was quite used to all of his tricks. "Alright, you caught me off-guard. Get off of me, you stink. I'll give you a bath later today." Santia shoved the happy tauros off of her and continued to Birch's lab, with the tauros following happily behind. Santia came across the lab and a cool breeze welcomed her as she opened the door. "Ah! I've been expecting you, Santia, for some time now!" Professor Birch exclaimed. "I'm afraid that your tauros will have to stay outside…" Santia turned around to discover that the tauros had followed her inside. "Go wait outside, you know you're not supposed to be inside buildings," she hissed at the tauros. Sulking, the tauros reluctantly went back outside. "Now then, you are here today to begin your journey as a pokemon trainer. To begin, you need your first pokemon." He gestured towards three poke-balls on the table next to him. "Take your pick from mudkip, a water/ground type, Treecko, a grass-type, or Torchic, a fire-type. You may have whichever one you choose, but remember: each one has their own weaknesses, so choose carefully." It took a while for Santia to think of the challenges ahead and which pokemon she would start out with to tackle those challenges. "I'll take the torchic." She finally said. Birch smiled and handed her the poke-ball with the torchic inside. "A good choice. Most trainers want power early on, but with enough love and care, your torchic will become quite a formidable opponent in battle." Santia accepted the poke-ball with a smile. "I'll call you Blaze," she whispered to the ball. "Oh, and before you go, take this Pokedex and these poke-balls. The balls you can use to capture pokemon in and the pokedex identifies unknown pokemon for you." Santia took the pokedex and the balls from Birsh and headed out the door. "Good luck out there, Santia." Birch called after her. Santia smiled to herself. She had only just begun and already she had two pokemon. "I don't need luck," she whispered to herself. "I have my friends."
Yay…short but interesting, no? anywho, I hope that you enjoyed it!
SEEYAS!
