Chapter One
Once upon a time, in the middle of existence, floated a large white and gold egg. The egg floated and floated until one day, it hatched. The creature that came from the egg was Arceus, the creator of all things. Arceus floated in existence until it got bored and created the universe we all know today. Arceus gazed at the stars and cute planets it made. Arceus went around making things that entertained it until it got bored again. Arceus decided that he should make creatures just like him. Arceus first created Giratina, god of the Distortion world. Giratina was Arceus complete opposite of each other, but they saw each other has brothers. Arceus created Palkia, god of space, to help expand space until it was infinite. Arceus then created Dialga, god of time, to keep track of the time all four of them spent together. Everything was fine, until Giratina got jealous of Palkia and Dialga and tried to destroy them. Arceus witnessed this and was forced to banish his first friend, his first brother, to the place where he ruled, to the Distortion World. Palkia, Dialga, and Arceus remain together to this day, but Giratina lurks in the darkness that is his domain.
I'm fifteen, I'm starting my Pokémon journey today, and my name is Pearl.
I look up at the mirror as I brush my teeth. I'm met with beautiful pink eyes, long wavy black hair, and tanned skin. The noise of my mom preparing breakfast snapped me out of my gaze.
"I can't wait to see Diamond and Platinum!" I rinse out my mouth one last time, "We're all going to start our adventure together!"
I shuffled through my closet to find the perfect outfit for the first day of our grand adventure; black pants, black shirt, red scarf, a white beanie, and black boots with red soles. I grabbed my black bag and looked through it, checking to make sure I have everything that I need for the long time ahead.
"PEARL!" my mom screeched from the bottom of the stairs.
"I'm coming Mom!" I yelled in response. I flung my bag over my right shoulder and head out of my room. I slid down the banister and landed on my feet, an easy task since I've been doing it for five years now. I rushed into the kitchen to see my mother's round face. Her ocean blue eyes and short black hair always fit her perfectly. The delicious aroma of bacon and berries filled the air and a small ding sounded behind me. I turned to face the familiar small toaster and two slices of fresh toast has popped out of it.
"Good morning, sleepy head," my mother greeted me warmly while taking another sip of her daily coffee.
"Are you worried?" I asked bluntly.
"They moved up the legal age up for a reason, so...kinda," she took another casual sip of her coffee.
"Good," I mumbled as I grabbed a piece of toast and spread Cheri berry jam on it.
"I'm off!" I say around the slice of toast.
"WAIT!" my mom screeched for the second time this morning.
"Hmm?" I stopped with my hand on the door knob.
"You forgot your journal, sweetie," My mother reminded me.
I groaned as I grabbed the small black journal covered in roses from the table. I ran out of the house before my mom could stop me again.
I ran to the town center. The smell of the surrounding flowers wafted through the air. The cooing of Starly and the buzzing of Combee made a natural symphony. At the fountain I spotted two boys sitting down playing with the water.
"Yo Diamond! Yo Platinum!" I shout at the two brothers. Their heads turn, one with clear blue eyes and the other with steely gray.
"Pearl, you're late," Diamond said around a yawn.
"What the flying Murkrow happened?" Platinum asked a little annoyed.
"My mom," I rolled my eyes.
Diamond and Platinum have been my friends since I could remember. Diamond and Platinum are fraternal twin brothers, but you wouldn't believe it if they didn't have a different hair and eye colors. They both looked like their father, tall, chiseled features, and broad shoulders. Where Diamond had clear blue eyes and brown hair, Platinum had dark gray eyes and almost white blonde hair. If they weren't like my brothers I would so be all over both of them like every other girl that happens to cross their paths. I have no girl friends here because they all hate me for being friends with these gods. I tilted my head towards the city limits. "Let's go,"
They both stood and followed me out of town and toward the Verity Lakefront.
"So, Pearl...," Diamond started asking on our walk there.
"We gotta question," Platinum finished for his brother.
I stopped walking, turned around, and raised my eyebrow. "What's going on?"
"Remember when we were ten?" Diamond asked with his signature grin.
I nod in response.
"Remember that question we asked you that one day?" Platinum chimed in.
My pink eyes went wide as Hoothoot's when I realized what they were implying at. Before I could turn and run they both grabbed each of my wrists.
"NO! I WON'T! I CAN'T" I plead.
"Pearl~, just answer the question," Platinum purred, like a Glameow, in his deep voice.
I look at them with pleading eyes.
"Pearl, you're not a Bonsly. No Fake Tears," Diamond rolled his eyes.
I gave him a harsh glare. He smiled at the glare, welcoming it.
"So Pearl." Platinum half yelled, snapping my attention from glaring daggers at Diamond's face to his smirk.
"So," Diamond moved over so that he stood by Platinum.
"Who do you chose?" they asked in unison.
My knees buckled and before they could catch me, I fell on my butt. It's been the same for five years now. They always ask the dumb question. As if I could ever chose. I would never break one's heart for the other. I push myself off of the ground, dusting myself off. They both look at me expectantly. I cough to clear my throat.
"I-I pick...,"
Just as I'm about to answer a flash of bright yellow appeared in the nearby bushes.
"Pikachu?" I muttered without thinking.
"Come on!" Diamond yelled in frustration.
"And here I thought you were serious." Platinum shook his head in disappointment.
"No," I plead pointing behind them, "Didn't you see that bright yellow?"
"No," They said looking a little ticked off.
Not a second later a bush shook somewhere in the distance. The three of us turn to see a boy about our age step out of the bushes.
"Whoa. She was right?" Diamond asked in disbelief.
"Who are you?" Platinum asked not missing a beat.
"I'm Barry, and who might you be?" the boy answered.
Arceus, he's a total ten. Messy gold hair, orange green eyes, and even with a shirt on you can make out those tone muscles. Now, I'm surrounded by total hotties, ahh could life ever get any better?
"Well, hi stalker in-" Platinum covered Diamond's mouth before he could finish.
"What he's trying to say is, I'm Platinum," he pointed to himself, "And he's Diamond," he pointed his glare to his brother.
"I'm Pearl," I introduced myself while reaching out my hand to shake his. Barry seemed to have other ideas as he grabbed my hand and placed a light kiss on the back on m knuckles. I could feel myself turn red as a Magby. In the corner of my eye I could see Diamond and Platinum clench their fists in sync. I blinked and Platinum had his arm draped around my shoulder and Diamond stood before me and his brother. Barry raised his eyebrow at the sight of this.
"So, you have two boyfriends?" he asked.
My face that was red as a Magby was now as white as an Absol's fur. I heard a small chuckle from beside me and in front of me. Arceus, give me the strength.
"How did you know?" Diamond smiled showing his white teeth. Platinum tightened his grip around my shoulders. Not him too.
"Platinum and I have always shared things..." Diamond started.
"And now we share her," Platinum finished for his sibling flashing his makes-all-the-girls-melt smile. I couldn't help but face palm and giggled. I shrugged off Platinum's arm and lightly smacked the back of Diamond's head.
"Ow," he rubbed the back of his head.
"Stop joking like that. Barry will get the wrong idea." I glared back at both of the brothers.
"I think I did already," Barry muttered.
"Don't worry Barry," I smiled a little too sweetly, "These Magikarps are not my boyfriends."
"Not yet," Diamond muttered angrily to himself, but it was loud enough for me to hear it.
"I heard that," I muttered back. Barry chuckled at that and it was music to my ears. Platinum looked down at his watch and frowned.
"We're late," and those two words got everyone's attention and we dashed for the lake
~10 minutes later~
The quiet tranquil lake is now filled with the sound of teenagers panting. When everyone caught their breath we headed to the shore to meet an angry and red faced Professor Rowan.
"It's Diamond's fault," Platinum and I blame in unison. Diamond's pale skin turned red.
"What?! No, it's Blondie's fault!" he pointed at Barry.
Barry glared at Diamond "My name is Barry, you idiot."
Diamond glared back at Barry and the air was instantly filled with tension. Corphish. Rowan, who had calmed down, laughed. The deep, rumbling sound echoed and we all turned our heads to him.
"If you kids are going to fight, use Pokémon to do so," he stepped aside, revealing two brown suitcases. My stomach was instantly filled with Butterfree. My future partner was in one of those suitcases. I couldn't wait. Rowan snapped his fingers and both of the suitcases popped open. In each case there were three red and white balls and three rectangular devices, each a different color; one red, the other blue, and the final one green.
"Each Pokedex," Rowan named the rectangular devices, "is filled with that Pokémon's data,"
My eyes widen. I needed to calm down. I looked around and noticed everyone is looking at me.
"Ladies first," Platinum elbowed me making me walk forward the first suitcase. I toke all three Pokeballs in my hand and tossed them in the air making the creatures pop out the spheres. The Pokémon all looked at me and smiled. One was green and brown and turtle-like Pokémon with a two small leaves on top of its head. Its mouth is beak-like and its eyes are large and black. The second is a bipedal penguin Pokémon. Its body is blue and white with two small white dots in the base of its body and a bib-like thing around its neck. It has a small yellow beak and puffed out his chest proudly, its large eyes sparkling. The third is a red and orange chimp with a small fire coming out of its butt. It smiled at him and took my hand. I couldn't help but smile at the Chimchar at my feet. I bent down to pick up the small thing and stared into its eyes and I know. I'm looking at my first partner.
