The baby gurgled happily and opened her tiny blue eyes to see the world. Both humans, the mother and the father, smiled happily at their sweet child. The mother was a petite woman at around five-and-a-half feet. She had long brown hair that fell past her scapula and on to her back. She smiled slightly, raising a dimple to her left cheek. Her soft hazel eyes bore into the infant's sapphire ones, and she smiled brightly.
The father had tousled copper hair, which the child inherited. His sapphire eyes were twinkling in joy and he grinned proudly at the baby. He was about six feet tall and had a broad frame. His face was rather angular, but his rough features looked pleasant to his wife. He smiled happily at the infant and picked the baby up.
A sound of motorcycles suddenly alerted them, and they looked out of the window. Three hooded figures, with a towering Charizard, approached them. The father placed the baby in the mother's arms and ran towards the front of the house.
"Give us the money you owe, or we cannot guarantee your family's safety," the first hooded man said, as his Charizard let loose a small array of flames. The man gulped and motioned for his wife to go out the back. The wife took her infant with her and carried the baby out, running as she did so. As she ran, she heard her husband's pained screams as the fire engulfed him.
What the woman never noticed was that she was being followed. The triad of shady men followed her on the motorcycles, as she ran into the woods. As she ventured through the woods, she realized she had nowhere to run. Kissing the baby's forehead, she placed the infant behind one of the trees, praying to Arceus that someone would find the child. As she prepared to run, the child let loose a wail, alerting the triad of their location.
A lone Pokemon was venturing through the same forest, grumbling about the legendary Pokemon warring again. The Pokemon was a mix of a Qilin and a centaur. Its body color was white with a gray, vertically-striated underside, the pattern of which had similar recurrences on the underside of the mane, tail, and face, and the four pointed feet were tipped with gold hooves. Its mane was quite long, jutting away from its head, and its face was gray, with green eyes and red pupils, and a green circular pattern below its eyes. It also had a streak of gold coloration on its head, and ears that point upward. Its neck was fairly long, with two pairs of extrusions to the sides, and a flap-like feature on the neck's underside that was colored white like much of the body. It also had a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body by its round abdomen, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on its current type. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it. The pattern of striated gray of its underbelly resumes past its waist, the underside of its limbs also being gray in coloration, and with extrusions at the tops of the legs. Its tail was fairly like its mane in shape and coloration. It grumbled some more, before a loud wail interrupted it from its thoughts.
"What in Lugia's name?" it said, as it heard the sound of wailing. It ventured to the source and noticed three shadowy members beating up a poor woman. The last member got up and held the crying infant in his arm.
"What do I do with the kid?" he asked.
"Please… Spare my child," rasped out the woman, earning another kick.
"Kill it or do something to shut it up," the other two members of the triad said.
"YOU WILL DO NO SUCH THING!" The Pokemon called out, enraged at the harming of an innocent being, even if the being was human. It opened its mouth and the shadow triad gaped, as the last thing they saw was a beam of light that incinerated them on the spot. Nothing was left of them.
The woman sighed in relief as she closed her eyes, and pleaded, "Please… Take my child… Her name is Ariane…" And with that, she took her last breath.
The Pokemon looked at the dead woman and bowed its head, then looked at the crying child. The child opened her eyes and looked wondrously at the Pokemon standing before her. She stopped crying and reached a hand up in the air. The Pokemon bowed its head and touch the tiny hand, and then said, "Child, I will take you in as my own. You will be Ariane, daughter of Arceus." And with that, a glowing light engulfed them both, and in a few minutes, both of them appeared in the Hall of Origin, where Arceus settled the infant and fed her berry juice.
