The Matt's past
20 years before the actual 'poke problems' story
Our young destined to be great trainer just turned six and already had 5 Pokemon (Combusken, Heracross, Diglett, Onix, Piplup) he's trained tirelessly since he got his 1st pokemon a month ago (Torchic) he decided to take today off because it was his own birthday.
He walked home with his pokemon well rested and by his side (but in there poke balls) He walked inside and was greeted by the wondrous smell of…FRENCH TOAST, Matt lunged towards the kitchen, where he saw his mother, she wasn't very tall but she had a nice feeling (you know that feeling that when your near someone and you feel safe) but he barely nodded to her as he jumped onto the table and grabbed his food and started consuming it. About 20 minutes of consuming food later, "Hey mom do we have any more-." he was interrupted with a giant palm on his blonde haired head that almost crushed his skull. He looked behind him at a very tall and strong man standing behind his chair.
"Dad!" he screamed with a smile.
"That's 'the' dad" his father said and his son gave him a (--) look and his wife hit him in the head (which since she was short and he was huge, she had to jump) he winced and turned and glared at her. She gave him a nastier glare and he backed off.
"So why were you home so late…I waited all night, mister mini-you was out all night too, so how did you think I felt about that." Lisa (Matt's mom's real name)
"Um…bad" the Dave said sarcastically (Matt's dad's name, prefers 'the' in front of his name because he is the strongest trainer in the world) She snapped him a angered expression, but he smiled it off.
"Were you out all night training with your Pokemon?" The Dave asked his son while patting him 'a good job, that's my boy' pat, which angered Lisa.
"Don't encourage him to do this, now back to why you were out" she said getting impatient.
"Well there's this new group, they're called team rocket" he sat down preparing for a long story "everyone's joining them because they took out Patrick (5th strongest) and stole all his Pokemon because Patrick wouldn't let him join the top 5(its top 5 back then). Yea I had to give Patrick a vacation until we return his Pokemon to him. He was upset but I had to do it. this group has to be dealt with, but with just me, Mark, Wormy, Danny (the other members of the top 5, in order from there numbers) I don't think we're enough for these damned team rocket shit bags!" his anger rose, he was not very happy with the current situation, "that's why we want to change the top 5 to the top 15" he paused and looked at his son, "so train hard my son, I want you to join" Matt's baby blue eyes brightened and his smile widened.
"And that is why I give you this as a birthday present" he said handing him a small Pokeball.
He took and impatiently yelled "What Pokemon is it?"
"Test I out."
Matt was about to throw it inside the kitchen, when his father yelled "NOT HERE, IN THE BACK YARD" they went out to the back yard and he activated the Pokeball and threw it in the grass it opened and white glowing light started to flood out and into a shape of Pokemon. It formed into a green Rayquaza that flew up high. Matt's eyes were wide times 3.
"But that's…your…Rayquaza" he said pointing at the enormous dragon.
"Not anymore, it's yours now" he said and smiled as he saw his cry in joy.
"Nice big dragon…thing…pokemon…it's…big" a little girl came by and said. She stood gaping at it.
"WHO ARE YOU?!!" Matt screamed at the little girl in front of him.
"Hi! I'm Marina, I'm here for Pokemon, adventuring, training, etc" she said with a smile on her face.
"Oh so your little Marina, yes your mentor will be this little boy here" Matt's mother said pointing to him, which made his eyes widen.
"What!? Why me!?" I need to continue training so I can get into the new elite!" he yelled, his mother gave him a stern look that usually worked but he stood his ground against this.
"So, when do we start training?" Marina butted in.
"Didn't you hear me!? I'm not going to train you!"
"Well, that's not what your parents say."
"Hey Matt, come here for a second" his father called him.
He walked over there waiting for what his father had to say. "Look I need you to do this, do you know why? Because her father, my good friend died recently" Matt's eyes widened "Yes he died because he couldn't stand up to the rockets. But he gave his daughter his 6 strong Pokemon for training, but she doesn't know how to control them, now ask yourself, if I died and you didn't know how to get stronger, wouldn't you be desperate for strength?" Matt decided that it might be ok to consider training "And one last thing, all her father wanted was for her to help the elites and become one of them, in his place."
"So, are you guys gonna talk about my fathers death much longer" Marina said, Matt and the Dave fell backwards, and Lisa chuckled.
"Fine, I'll train her but that doesn't mean that I'll stop doing what I'm destined to do." He said flicking his blonde hair up with his head.
"Wouldn't dream of it" Marina said.
"I don't need your opinion on anything!" He said angered.
"Whatever."
"Grrrrr!" he glared at her.
"You know, I think this is the beginning of one of the best relationships ever" Lisa said happily.
But little did any of them know that the highest tragedy was about to happen that night, and change Matt forever…
'Ring, ring' the Dave answered it "Yes, uh-huh, WHAT, fine I'll be right there!" He ran to the door.
"What's wrong?" Lisa screamed.
"I'll explain later" he said and ran out the door.
Little did The Dave notice that he had left his Pokemon in his other jacket and that Matt was out for another all night train
He ran into the woods and entered a clearing where he saw his brother dead on the floor (Mark) "You bastard!!" he said and lunged at the leader of the rockets, Paul (his other brother, youngest of the family) "I'll kill you now!!!" he screamed but was stopped by an enormous Dragonite in front of him.
"On the contrary, brother, the top 5 ends here! HYPER BEAM" the Dragonite sent an outstanding hyper beam at the Dave.
He dodged in a flash step which the Dragonite did not notice and got countered by a punch to the stomach, which in turn hit its internal organs and killed it.
His eyes narrowed and pupils turned into skinny narrow ovals, and he glared at Paul, "I'm done, you're going to die now" he lunged in a flash step towards Paul but what he didn't notice was Paul had a trip up his sleeve (literally) he reached into his sleeve and pulled out a sword and thrusted it at The Dave, impaling him in the heart.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!" Matt had come out of the bushes where he had been watching the whole battle. Tears were flooding from his face. Paul smiled and kicked Matt in the face knocking back a few feet.
He walked away and away and away until he was gone and Matt continued to cry until his father touched him. His eyes focused and he looked at his father, rain poured onto his mustached, face and hat, and the pony tail in the back of his hair.
"Son, its ok, all…I…want from…you…is to…surpass me…and…kill Paul…and the rockets…make what I wanted…a…re…ali…ty." his last words and he died.
Matt's eyes narrowed and his pupils turned into the narrow sharp ovals like his fathers did. "I will…father."
That day Matt left his mother and took Marina with him to train, and the worst of all, his eyes changed, and he dyed his blonde hair brown.
Breaking Benjamin's: Breath
4 years later, Matt had killed Paul and most of the rockets and Giovanni became the new leader and because Giovanni is a gym leader Matt could not kill him
'Father'
He had become ten, and he had created the top 15 just as his father wished for him to do, he backed off and allowed the titles of the top 15 to be decided after 5 years of training later
'Have I done well?'
At the age of 15 he had become the strongest trainer in the world and he had took the title of 'The' Matt
'Please, that's all I want'
And as Marina was offered second seat to the top 15, she refused, she needed to make sure no one slipped in and finished the top 15 like last time, only with the top 5
'To make you proud of me'
His eyes will never change back to the way they were but his eyes can at least rejuvenate into a darker shade of blue, his hair remains the dark shade of brown the same as his fathers.
'Son'
Everyone that knew The Matt when he was Matt have died (well except marina) they all died in trusting the Matt's actions, always loving him
'How can you even think that I'
And even now, The Matt continues to control the rockets actions with his force, and on the day of his father's death, he kills the rockets chances to ever rebuild themselves.
'That I've ever not been proud of you'
The matt smiles and continues his happy life with his new friends, never forgetting his vows or of his father.
Ororo.42/2hott4u: Ok that was only the first chapter! The chapters after this is how we met the other top 15 and some more stuff about Kin and the Rockets hatred of the top 15 (except for Marina cause she works for them but not by stealing) oOo and everyone who's in the story "Poke Problems" (if you're reading this) tell me some of the background stuff you want for your characters. Okay! Hope you enjoyed it!
