Birdsong
Prologue: The Gift
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon or the songs in this fic except, for the first song sung.
Note: Have you ever listened to bird sing and wondered what they sung about. I hav so I decided to write a fic about a bird who becomes a human.
Bird's POV:
I love to sing and listen to the beauty of the world around me. My friends and I travel all over the world, sometimes letting the wind guide us. I have watched humans my whole life, wondering what's it like to run and play. I mean being a bird is great, I can fly whereever my heart takes me but I want to know if there's more out there than flying to new locations. Then being chased by cats, wanting to eat me for lunch. More than the pain, when I lose another friend to a hunter. I want to be free to make my own decisons, to not have to follow my flock wherever they go but Iam a raven. I blend in with the night, and I see no others of my kind. But I love to sing and when I sing I get to express my emotions within my songs.
One day I was given a gift, A gift that would change my life forever. It happened on a regular clear morning atleast, that's what I thought. I took my regular flight into the Redwood forest into the clearing where I can relax and sing my heart out. I sigh and begin one of my songs, my eyes focusing on the clear lake in front of me.
Iam a raven
how cursed to be
A bird like no other.
My feathers are black,
My eyes are golden.
My heart is split
My mind is racing.
Each day, I pray
to start the day anew.
to find what I been waiting for.
Beneath the stars and moon.
I stopped singing as I heard the familiar rustling of a bush behind. If I was a human, I'll be smiling sadly right now. "Hi Pikachu." I called out as a blackish yellow ears poked out of the bush. Pikachu ran toward me, it's black eyes filled with happiness. I known Pikachu since as far back as I remember. Pikachu followed me, no matter where I traveled, he's my bestfriend. Almost like a brother to me. "Pika pi *Hi Rave*" Pikachu replied.
I turned towards my friend, stretching out my wings in the process. I wish I were human than I could hug my friend and I'll know we'll always stay together. As a raven, I will forever stay lonely for who knows where I may get shot or captured. Who knows when Pikachu will finally get a loving trainer and leave me back to my solitude. It brought tears in my eyes to think of it. I will have to leave Pikachu forever. My golden-brown eyes looked in Pikachu's ebony ones and I murmered "Goodbye." As I flew away, never turning back. The wing rustled my feathers and my tears blurred my vision. A song came to mind, I heard it once long ago.
The time has come,
It's for the best, I know it.
Who could have guessed, that you and I.
Somehow, somewhere.
We'll have to say goodbye.
Somehow, today.
We'll have to say goodbye.
I remembered the tears clouding my vision and I flew straight into a tree and my world faded away. I was awakened moments later by soft kind voice saying "Oh sweet Raven, I grant your wish for you song has touched my cold heart. You shall become a human my dear Raven and your name shall be Ash. Beware my dear Raven, for the human world may be cruelier than the innocent way you look at things. And you shall forever be different little one for you shalll still process your wings and be able to fly when things get tough. Hold onto your soul little one and survive this world, save it from the evil with the innocence and kindness in your gaze. And I give you another gift, you'll be able to understand all languages." After the voice stopped speaking, my eyes opened and pain erupted throughout my body. I cried out and the world faded away once again.
Hours later................................
My golden-brown eyes opened and I realized something was different. My body felt cold and I couldn't feel my wings anymore. I tried to stand up and I realized I was bigger and taller than usual. My feet were different, they were tanned now and shaped funny. What's happening to me? I thought just as the lake near me caught my eye. I smiled as saw it, now I can finally see what happened to my body. I walked slowly over to the lake and peered. I gasped, my reflection wasn't my own. In it's place sat a young human boy with chocolate brown eyes and messy black hair who was naked looking trapped and frightened. I blinked and realized that boy was me. I'm human now. That weird voice granted my wish and I was finally human. I grinned but my grin soon faded as I realized I was extremely cold.
I looked down at myself and realized I still had no clothes on my body like a regular human would have. I sighed, where can I go to find clothes? I know nothing of human things except what I gazed upon, mostly kids laughing and playing. I was a human now and I had to live with them too. The only problem now, is how do I find them? Suddenly a ball of yellow fur jumped into my arms and I automatically hugged the little creature that I reconized to be Pikachu. My friend, I won't have to leave you but for some reason the comfort of my friend's body in my arms didn't smooth my fear. Where was i suppose to go from here? Pikachu seemed to sense my fear and we begun to sing. *Pikachu words will now be human words except it will have these * marks surrounding his speeches.*
Ash/Raven: Why I'm I always feeling down? Why I'm I always so afraid? Why? Why, have I given up hope?
Pikachu: *What is it your afraid of? I know it's okay, I'm afraid too in the same way.
Ash: I give up hope, i just can't cope. Can't give my all much longer.
Pikachu: Your not alone. You must hang on. You must try to be stronger.
You can overcome life's ups and downs, you turn your life around. That's the meaning of true courage so please remember. Don't you ever give up trying, be couragious. Keep on strieving. Dreams can come true, you can find your hope tomorrow. So let's hold hands with one another. We both take one step further. Dreams can come true. We find our hope together
Ash: Yeah we can do! *Not singing anymore*
So I found some cloths abandoned in the forest, one was a red cap, another was a black shirt, and the last was blue jeans plus some worn-out sneakers. I put on the clothes, I was glad to be warm again, picked up Pikachu in my arms and left. I knew there was whole world of adventure out there and we were going to find it. Moments walking, brought us to a sign which I read aloud: Welcome to Pallet Town. I knew this where our adventure will start and I just hope I was ready.
A journey lay before me, that no normal person could accomplish

Well, how did everyone like it. Yeah I know it's weird but for some reason it came to me and I wrote it Down so no flames. Just review please.
