Chapter 1: Pika... Who?

Pikachu's Pov.

Dream

It's hard to explain, the situation I was in. I felt like I was falling, but not. If that makes sense. Floating maybe?

I don't know how, but I was moving. Moving through a dark and cold void. And when I say cold I mean COLD! Ice cold. So cold I could feel my tail freezing.

But this wasn't the only feeling I noticed. I also felt like I was missing something. But not just missing something, but losing something! I started thinking. What could I be missing as well as to what could've been causing this feeling. My surroundings started to warm up, as if the sun had just come from behind a cloud. But the temperature was the only thing to change, not the lighting or the feeling of motion.

Thinking I was the cause of the temperature change, I continued my search for answers. As my thoughts got deeper the temperature got warmer and warmer. I think I was probably on the right track, so I continued searching. I figured the change of the temperature was a sign that I was getting closer to my answers.

But then the warm feeling changed to a burning sensation. At first the feeling was strange and uncomfortable. I stopped my search for answers, thinking the feeling would subside. But it only grew stronger. My eyes widen in fear as the burning became painful. I winced at the feeling of my fur and then my skin burning.

I curled my body into a ball hoping to some how protect myself from this unknown source of heat. But it didn't do a thing. I started cry out in pain. "GAAAAA!" I screamed. I sucked in some air hoping to fight through the pain. But the pain only grew stronger. My cried of pain then changed to pleading cries.

"Help! Someone, anyone! Help me please!" I cried as a new sensation came to me. I smelt something burning. It must of been my fur along with my skin. I just screamed and screamed. Hoping for something, Anything to happen to put a stop to this pain!

"Help!" I screamed as loud as I could. But I was starting to lose this uphill battle. My whole body was now burning. The was no way I would survive this. And if I did then... this was sure to leave more than some scars. The pain became so great that I couldn't even yell anymore.

Then as if the environment was torturing me, the burning feeling was replaced with both the feel and sound of the rushing wind. It was such sweet relief. I felt scaly hands. This time I was definitely moving, and at breakneck speed. Then as I flew through the air, I started to see my surroundings. As if I had my eyes closed the whole time. " Awkward.." I thought.

I watched as I got closer to the ground of, what I'm sure of to be, the forest. I crashed to the ground with a surprisingly low amount of force. I slid on the to the ground and stopped a few feet away from where I had landed. I sighed at the relief I was feeling. But not just from being saved from being burnt to death... but because of something else. Though I didn't know what else I could've been grateful for.

"Hey *cough* you o- *cough* *cough* okay?" I heard it. The sound of someone calling out to me. I look toward the voice. It was blue. That was about all I could tell. " Please..." I called. But I didn't know what I was begging for. " Please...Help me..." I thought about what I had just said. Help? Help what? Who ever I was hearing must of been the one to save me. What else could I need help with. I don't know but my instincts told me that there was something I needed to do. Something I couldn't afford to forget. Is that what I was feeling. The loss of my memories.

I would of thought about this more, but I was starting to lose consciousness. As I was about to fall into the bliss of sleep, my eyes getting heavier. I heard the voice one last time. "Don't worry... we got you." My eyes had finally shut closed. I felt my savior pat my back softly. The idiot probably not thinking of my injuries.

And just before I let sleep take me. I thought one last thing. "We?"

End Of Dream

I woke to smell of fresh air and the noises of the outside area. I slowly opened my right eye. Finding it painful to even do so. Slowly shifting my head, I looked out the horrible makeshift window. It really wasn't a window, but a hole blown into the wall of the building, with pointed and rugged edges.

I looked at the blue sky, feeling like it was the first time seeing it. Looking away, I looked at the rest of the room, with a pained expression most likely. It was a pretty empty and small room. The walls were plain brown color, other than the open threshold leading to a hallway with colorful walls of shapes and colors. The floor was older looking than the rest of the place. The wood of the floor looked to be rotting.

Other than a small table with some medical things on it, like elastic bandages and bloody gauzes. And the straw nest I was in, there was nothing in the room. Well except me of course... duh. I rolled my one open eye and cringed. "Every little movement causes some pain." I realized. What was keeping me from moving probably wasn't my fear of the pain, but from the fact that my muscles were stiff and weak.

"What ever must of been bad for me to of been out long enough lose almost total function of my body." I slowly and well painfully pushed myself up so I was sitting up. I looked down at my self. I soon realized that I was also being restricted by the bandages covering my body. "This explains why I can't use my left eye. Its most likely cover up with by the gauzes or bandages."

I sighed and closed my one open eye. I then gasped at a realization. I had no clue where I was. "What the? How can I not know where I'm at?" My right eye was open with shock evident. I thought some more and came to another realization. I had no clue who I was. I force the cloth covering me off and onto the rotting floor. Swing my stiff and short legs over the edge. I didn't even know what I was! "Oh no this isn't good!"

Totodile's Pov

"Hey, I'm going to check on Pikachu." I said smiling. Combusken just sighed and bowed her head shaking it. "You just checked on him minutes ago. I doubt anything has changed. After all the damage he has taken, it's a miracle he's even alive." Picking her head back up she looked at me seriously. "We don't even know if this Pokémon can be trusted."

I looked at her with as much force as she had. "I trusted you." She gasped shocked. She turned her head away and looked to the side in shame. After some time she turned her back to me with her head down. " I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..." I walked up behind her and patted her back. "Don't worry about it!" I said smiling.

She looked back at me from over her shoulder and smiled back. With that I turned around and left the living quarters of our base and headed to our now medical ward. I made my way toward the main hall of the tree base and ran my right paw across the colorful wall. I sighed and looked back at Combusken. "Don't worry. I trust him."

Combusken looked at me. "I hope you're right." She said before heading toward her travel pack that had been left on the floor.

I walked into the main hallway looking straight ahead. " I hope you wake up soon. Pikachu." I sighed and started to click my tongue.

Pikachu's Pov

I got up staggered toward the threshold. But midway I found myself naturally falling on to my front paws. " I can walk using all four of my limbs?" I thought as if asking my self. It felt more natural to walk using all of my limbs then just two any way. I struggled with each step but was able to continue moving.

Within a minute or so I was able to make it to the end of the hall. There was now two directions. One leading deeper into the building and the other outside. " Well isn't it obvious which way I'm taking." I started heading out.

*Click*

I gasped and turned my head as fast as my body would let me toward the sound.

Something or someone was heading in my direction. Picking up my pace I headed out of the building not knowing if these people were good or not. The noise just got louder and louder. I finally made it out, but was shocked to find out that it was nothing but a closed off area. No bigger than a quarter of an acre. It was just an area closed off by a circular fence.

*Click*

I took a gulp of air. "OH NO!" I felt like sweating bullets. I then realized I could hide behind some of the bushes resting around the small pond. The pond took up most of the back area and was surrounded by bushes and trees. The ground was a few feet away from the pond was grass but from there on to the building was gravel. I hid far back behind two trees.

*Click*

The sound slowly faded away. As soon as it was out of earshot I came into a clearing where I could see the threshold to the building in my sight. I smiled and started making my way around the pond. But this I caught a glimpse of my reflection. I gasped at what I saw. Making sure I was still out of sight of the threshold of the building I looked back at the pond. The only thing that wasn't covered on my face was my right eye and my mouth and part of my right cheek. I noticed that my fur was... well its color was a bit of a dull yellow and short. "Fur? So I'm an animal?" And there was a bit of red on my, from what I could see of it, cheek. But I took it as blood, but didn't bother to wipe it. The gauze and bandages wrapped around my head and jaw, then went across my face over my nose and then covered up my left eye.

The rest I couldn't tell. Most of my body from head to toe was cover in red, that I assume is my blood, cover gauzes. My left arm and leg have elastic bandages covering them up.

"My arm and leg must've been swollen." I realize. Other this this I can't tell anything more. No more details about myself.

Totodile's Pov.

I couldn't believe what I saw when I walk into the medical ward. I smiled at first but then gasped and started to sweat. Pikachu wasn't in his bed and was no where to be found.

"Oh no. What if Combusken was right, and this Pokémon can't be trusted. No! He can.

But then what if some random Pokémon came and abducted Pikachu!" I thought debating things and thinking of scenarios.

But then it hit me.

"OH NO WE GOT TO FIND HIM!" I cried aloud. Turning, around I ran back to get Combusken.

"COMBUSKEN!" I yelled.

Combusken's Pov.

I sighed and stopped my unpacking.

"How could I have spoken like that in front of Totodile?" I asked my self. I sighed letting the weight of the bag pull my claws along with it down to the floor. I lowered my head in shame.

"How could I?" I just pulled my head back up. " I'll apologize when he walks back in." I said now with a resolve.

"COMBUSKEN!" My gaze snapped in the direction of Totodile's call. I jumped up and ran into the hall heading for Totodile.

Pikachu's Pov.

"COMBUSKEN!" I looked up from my reflection and peeked from the tree toward the building threshold where I heard the voice coming from. During this time I notice that the building was actually a tree. I gasped and gave the tree a strange look.

"How the!" But these thought were put to rest when the voice cried again.

"COMBUSKEN HE'S MISSING! HE'S NOT IN THE NEST!" I gasped and hid further back in the bushes and trees.

"This person must of realize that I was missing." I thought. "Now I know there's more than one." I peeked through the bush and looked at the doorway wait for someone or something to come running in.

"COMBUSKEN!" This time it was so close. I heard running along with the shouts and cries. But they soon faded in the distance. I sighed in relief but knew this wasn't the time to relax or to feel safe.

"Until I figure out who I am or what I am, or even what happened to me. I can't trust any one." I moved from my hiding place and around the pond and into the open area.

I stopped and looked back at my reflection. I saw the emotion in my eye. Fear.

Combusken's Pov.

It wasn't too long till a caught up with Totodile. "What's wrong Totodile!" I asked with concern.

He barely stopped, just a foot from me. "HE'S NOT THERE!" He cried. I looked at him strangely. He took this as a hint that I wasn't quite getting it.

"PIKACHU!" He yelled. My eyes widened as I realized what he was saying.

Feeling stupid, I asked. "What! You mean he's not in his nest! Did you see him sneak by you!?" I asked.

"No I didn't see him when walking to the room! Combusken! I think he could've been Poke-Napped!" Totodile cried. Cartoonish tears running down his face.

"HEY!" I yelled smacking him for acting dumb.

"You don't even know him so don't be crying. Any way I doubt it. You had only checked on him two to three minutes before. So I'm guessing that he woke and is now hiding." I said with reasoning.

Totodile held his head with a childish face. "You didn't have to hit me." He said with a pout.

"You didn't have to overreact." I said heading toward the training ground.

"Where you going?" Totodile asked.

"To the training ground." I said turning to look at him. "This is not the time to train!" He yelled.

I sighed and started to grow angry. "You idiot! It was only two to three minutes! We didn't see him walking past! He's way too weak to manage to sneak by us or even climb out the hole in the room he was in! Besides the hole may be large but its far to risky to climb through it if he was going to climb through it! That leaves the training ground! Now shut up and follow me! Got it?" I ordered.

Totodile straightened up and nodded vigorously. I turned back around and started heading toward the training ground. As soon as I walked in I smirked and looked a the yellow mouse Pokémon standing there looking into the pond. I turned to Totodile and gave him a, " I told you' look.

I looked back toward Pikachu and tried getting his attention. "Ahem..." But this did nothing. I tried again a bit louder this time. "AHEM..." Still nothing. I looked toward Totodile. He just shrugged. I looked back and this time called out to him. "Pikachu? Are you okay?"

He seized up and froze. After a few seconds and turned with a questioning look on his face. I looked at him with confusion.

"Pika... who?" He asked and I froze in place knowing why he asked such a question.
