Hi guys! I have created a new beginning for my story, which I also renamed. The plot is basically the same. It's just the way I present it. I will most likely be updating chapter by chapter because I'm writing the story down and then typing it. It's better that way for me. Enjoy!
Prologue
The blue-haired girl skipped into the dazzling ballroom. Servants were bustling around, trying to complete the decorations just in time for the enormous cake to arrive. A sharp-eyed adviser noticed the little princess peeking from behind the crimson curtains. "Shoo!" he barked and with a shrill scream, the girl stumbled out of the room. She did not let it dampen her mood, being optimistic and bubbly. Walking down the aisle, she paused every few seconds to admire the portraits of her ancestors, not noticing a brown-haired man walking towards her with long strides. She emitted an elated squeal when he lifted her up into the air and turned around like a whirlwind. When he finally released her, she jumped out of his hands and ran around in happy circles, chanting, "I'm ten today, Dad! Ten today, ten today, ten today!"
"Just like her mother," thought the King. "Bubbly, cheerful and optimistic."
All of a sudden, she stopped with a gasp. "Did Riley come?" she inquired, referring to her cousin. King Caleb shook his head remorsefully, "He's too busy, sweetie, but he did send you a gift."
"Really?" she asked.
Before he could reply, the head maid, Lily, appeared. "Princess? It's time for you to get ready!" Nearly bursting with excitement, she waved to her father and followed Lily.
"Oh Johanna, if only you were here," thought King Caleb, an image of his wife appearing in his mind. The little girl looked so much like her mother.
~A Few Hours Later~
"Oh, wow, Dad!" Everyone turned to look at the young bluenette in the middle of the room, clutching her sequined dress tightly. The King was holding out a Pokémon egg with milky rainbow-coloured swirls on it. With trembling hands, she took it gently and pressed it against her chest. And that was not all; Her father handed her a box wrapped with a pink ribbon. Placing the egg between her feet, she opened the box to reveal her first Pokéball. Her eyes lit up in delight. "I can't wait for the others," she said and twirled around on the spot.
But that happy moment was not to last for if it did, there would be no story to tell, no legend to be passes down, no adventure to embark on…
At that exact second, the warning bells resounded through the kingdom . King Caleb turned ashen. He knew what three bells meant-they had returned. He cast a terrified look at his young daughter. His expression swiftly became that of determination. "I won't lose you, too," he vowed. "I'll die trying."
"Run, sweetie! You know where to," he bellowed as he gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. The birthday girl looked stunned. Then picking up the egg, she ran down the hall, frantically trying to find the passageway. A vague memory flashed through her head and she turned left-and banged right into hard armour. "Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in," a cold, mean, voice sneered. Wincing, she looked up, staring right into the eyes of a blue-haired man, who would later be known as the leader of "Team Galactic". With an evil laugh, he bundled her up and threw her over his shoulder. "Retreat!" he shouted into his electronic device. "I've found her!" Tears clouded her vision as she struggled violently. "Dad, dad, DAD!"
Somewhere in the maze of tunnels, past the main entrance, King Caleb felt something in his heart. "No," he whispered hoarsely. "No!"
"Once again, Caleb, you've lost. " Cyrus glanced at the sleeping girl on his airship. She would be very useful in the future.
There! I hope you enjoyed it! I will only continue if I get 5 new reviews.
