Chapter 1: Metting A New Friend

I awoke as the sun shone through the window. I stretched and yawned as I stood up and then shook my fur. I looked to the bed of my partner. He was not there. I walked out the open door and turned the corner. I walked down the staircase. I looked around at the bottom of the staircase. I still could not find him. I sat and scratched my side with a rear paw. I looked around before standing up again. I then hopped down the last step and walked into the livingroom. Still no sight of him.

I then jumped to the couch and looked out the window. His bike was gone. He must have went to the store and forgot about me. I sighed and jumped down from the couch. I then jumped on the the chair and found the weird black rectangle that controlled the screen with moving pictures on it. I pressed a button and the T.V. turned on. There was a large stadium. There were hundreds of people watching two trainers and their pokemon battle. One was a blue and yellow canine, if I remember from what my trainer told me, it was a Manectric. The other was a huge metallic snake made of rocks or something.

I watched as the Manectric dodged a swing from the tail of the beast and ran up the tail and launched a burst of electricity. The large snake was shocked and fell to the ground. A large cloud of dust rose when the iron snake hit the earth. The Manectric landed safely away from the other pokemon and a human on the side of the battle field raised a green piece of cloth.

"Steelix is unable to battle! The winner is Allen with his Manectric!" The human said.

I turned the T.V. off and walked to the kitchen wich was through a doorway in the livingroom. I looked around and found my bowl of food was full. I then realized that my pertner had filled my food bowl before he left. There had to be a reason. I ate a little of the food and then walked out the back door which had a little flap of rubber that allowed me to go through. I crawled on to the other side and looked around. I found that no one was here so I walked over to the large shady tree we had in the backyard and curled up under it. It was my favorite spot. Not only was it my favorite spot, but it was where I had first met my trainer, John.

I layed down and looked to the sky. It was beautiful. I caught my self smiling for no reason as I thought of my partner and then stood up before walking to the small swimming pool we had. I jumped in and then swam to the surface and giggled. I then climbed onto the small raft big enough for two humans and layed on it. I was alone in solitude.

"Hello young Electrike." I heard a feminine voice say.

The voice broke me from my thoughts and I looked around until I spotted the speaker. It was a strange white fox like pokemon. Several tails elegantly waved in a small breeze, they were all hers. I stayed in my current position and didn't say anything. She walked closer and put her front paws on the edge of the pool and looked over the edge of the pool and at me. The floating raft slowly moved in the direction of her and I stood up and slowly stepped back as the water craft carried me closer to her. She giggled. She then looked in my eyes and I stopped moving back. I was at the edge. I watched as she slowly stepped on and I slowly tried to take another step back but there was no room. The back of my body fell in the water. Both of my front paws were hanging on the edge. I my paws slipped from the side and I landed in the water with a splash. I felt something grab me by the back of my neck and lift me out of the water and onto the raft. I slowly lost conciousness as my lungs were filled with water.
