Welcome to my first fan fiction story. It is based around Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team and my actual adventure within it - (with some slight input from my own imagination).

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon or the plot of the games. I only take credit for the characters I have created, and the plot twists of my own devising.

I hope you enjoy!

Where am I?

Am I Dreaming This?

I feel a pleasant breeze.

…I hear a voice from somewhere…

I wonder who it is?

My own thoughts whirling round my head, I heard a small cry.

'Please, wake up! Come on, wake up!'

I peeled my eyes apart and squinted, as the light from the morning sun pierced my pupils.

After a second of adjustment, I was able to look around at my new surroundings.

I was in a lush green wood, with healthy, fruit laden trees reaching up and brushing the cloud filled sky. I lay in a clearing of some trees on a small bed of grass, my head resting against a gnarled tree stump. I looked down in shock at my stubby hands, or rather, paws. They were brown and rough, with a small claw on what looked to be my thumb. I had a small body, brown in colouration like my hands. On my back was a stout tail that was only a few inches long. I felt something warm on my head. No, my face! My head was stuck in some sort of bucket! I wriggled and squirmed, hoping to be released from this dark… wait, I could see. On closer inspection, the bucket turned out to be a skull, similar in size to that of a small animal. It had eye holes (of course), nose holes and a pair of short horn-like bumps on top. I could just about reach them. As I touched them I felt a powerful surge of emotion rush through me, and an image of a creature not too dissimilar from myself lay on the floor with its back to me. It too wore a skull and was whining uncontrollably, as if in pain. I reached for it, to see if it was ok. I was about to touch it when…

'Hey there!' came a voice. I jumped, completely focused on exploring my new body. It was the voice from before. I had completely forgotten.

I staggered up to come face to face with what seemed to be a small mouse. It had yellow fur with brown stripes going horizontally down its back. It had a peculiar tail, in the shape of a lightning bolt and limbs shorter than my own. On its face was a pair of round red cheeks that seemed to glow and pulsate. It had a small nose and a set of long ears, each tipped with black fur. Its black eyes seemed to shine with determination.

'Hey? Meowth got your tongue?' it asked. I tried to reply, but all I could muster was –

'Mifffolruf'

The creature burst into fits of laughter.

'What was that?' it stammered through fits of laughter.

'Hey!' I cried, snapping myself out of my confusion.

'I'm sorry!' it squealed, rolling onto its back and clutching its stomach, 'it's just the noise you made!'

'Well I'll have you know I have just woken up from a sleep I don't remember falling into. I have no recollection at all where I came from' I stated, folding my tiny arms across my chest. 'And anyway, I don't even know who or what you are. To be perfectly honest, I have no idea who or what I am.'

The creature wiped tears from its eyes and rolled back up to stand on its legs.

'To start with, you're a Cubone. As for your name, well I can't help you there.' The creature handed me a long white object. 'This is your bone, I believe you dropped it'

I took the bone from the outstretched paw. Another surge of emotion flew through me, this one not as strong. This time the feeling of rage and loss filled me. Hauling myself back to reality, I realised I still had no idea who this creature was.

''I still have no idea who you are!' I said, taking a shine to this new character

'Well I am a Pikachu' said the mouse, proudly

'name?' I asked

'Bolt.'
