Ash, Misty, and Brock's lives were taken at the young ages around 35. Team Rocket wanted to take over the world for themselves. It was nothing more than a friendly reunion with the gang, what they did every year. But three members of Team Rocket did a surprise attack on them, taking their lives. But never Jessie, James, and Meowth. Despite their attempts to steal their pokemon, they would never do such a horrid thing to them. The three, now turned good members helped temporarily fight off the members of Team Rocket, but it ended in their failure. Without the three heroic figures and masters around, Team Rocket quickly took hold the regions in their grasps. But there still is hope. When Ash and Misty's lives were taken, they left behind two young children. Time has passed and they have grown up. They must now travel through the regions and help regain power.

Pallet Town was now a small and dull town, but it still held up. Lauren and Michael were fostered home in two different houses, but grew up together as best friends. They were only recently told of their pasts, and were a bit upset about it. But this morning was the day of their journeys to set out to save the world. It was a big responsibility to put on the shoulders of two teenagers. But the Professors had high hopes for the two.

As Michael walked into Professor Oak's Lab, he was greeted by Lauren and Professor Oak as the two made small, and quiet chat. As Lauren heard the door open, she turned her head as she gently stared at Michael. "Hey Laur..." Michael said as he walked over to his friend. Lauren gave him a small nod as the two faced Professor Oak.

"Well, you two know why you are here. We haven't made many people trainers, for what's happening in this word." Professor Oak gave a sigh. "And you were just told of your pasts and your goals you must accomplish. But the professors and I have faith in you two." Professor Oak gave a nod to them.

"Here are your supplies. Your pokedex, poketech, and your pokeballs." Professor Oak said as he handed everything out. Then here are your starter pokemon." Professor Oak said as he let out two pokemon. A Bulbasaur appeared at Michael's side as a Charmander appeared at Lauren's side, each one happy as it was oblivious to the world's happenings.

"And because of the members of Team Rocket, in case of emergency they must stay outside of their pokeballs. Plus it forms a stronger bond." Professor Oak pointed out to the two gloom like teenagers. The whole town- most likely world was like this.

"Good luck you two. I have strong faith in you." Professor Oak told the two teenagers. "Your parents would be proud of you." Professor Oak then finished as he turned around and disappeared into the lab.

Once Professor Oak was out of sight, Lauren wiped a tear from her eye as she gently nudged her friend. "Let's get going..." Lauren faintly said as she turned around and began to walk out of the lab, the three quickly following the girl.

The teenagers and their pokemon had dragged on as they walked through Route 1, not meeting any Team Rocket members yet. Neither of the trainers spoke a word, while their pokemon chatted on the way. But finally, Michael spoke up.

"It's getting dark, we should make camp for the night." Michael said as he looked to his side at his best friend, lifting his gaze from the ground.

Lauren looked up at him as she gave a nod. "We'll find some place to camp out for the night." Lauren said as she slightly sped up her pace and began to walk into the forest.

Lauren was usually quiet, but not this quiet. She must of still been upset about the whole journey and actual parents thing. Michael was too, he thought of talking to her, but then decided against it. He shook his head as Michael followed Lauren, Bulbasaur right on his heels.

In little time, Lauren and Michael had found a camping spot for the night. Lauren had Charmander start a small fire while the two trainers began setting up the sleeping bags.

"Char Charmander...Bulba..." The two pokemon said as they sat on a log in front of the fire, watching Lauren and Michael.

The two trainers took a sleeping bag out of their backpacks as they laid it onto the ground. But by the time that was done, the moon had already quickly risen up into the sky.

When they were done the two trainers sat on the logs in front of the campfire with her pokemon. The two trainer's faces stared into the fire, their faces lit up by the light of the fire. For a while, the two trainers sat in silence as their pokemon were peacefully sleeping on the ground. "Michael, do you think we can do it..." Lauren finally asked as her gaze stayed on the fire. Michael took her hand in response. Lauren laid her head on his shoulder as the two began to fall asleep.
