A large storm unleashed its fury on a small forest region below. From the storm clouds lightning struck the earth below; scorching some of it as its electric fury made contact. The booming sound of thunder shortly followed. The rain that feel from the clouds drenched everything. The wind howled loudly as it blew across the land. A massive fire ball suddenly came from the forest bellow; it erupted in a massive explosion. A scream followed shortly after the explosion.

Inside the darkened forest the small figure of a child ran. The child was running fast and panting loudly; another fireball suddenly shot forward. Almost striking the figure as it screamed again; its hands shot to the back of its head as it tried to keep its head down. The fire ball was followed by clear beam of ice and bolt of lightning. Thankfully each of the attacks struck the surrounding trees; narrowly missing the figure.

"Can any of you idiots hit that kid," A teenaged voice shouted; just as another fireball shot past the child, "He's getting away!"

"Leave me alone!" The voice of the child shouted back; by the way the voice sounded it was a boy. As he ran he jumped of many fallen longs and ducked behind many trees. Trying his best not to get hit by the many different attacks.

A bright light suddenly came from the sky above; the boy took a quick glance behind. His eyes went wide in horror; as multiple fireballs suddenly fell towards him. Time slowed for him as he continued to run. His breathing slowed and his heart beat grew louder. He could feel the heat of the fireballs on his back; as they got closer and closer to him. Then, without warning the boy had run off the edge of a large cliff. Thankfully just as he fell the fireballs had made contact with the ground behind him. The explosion was large; thankfully before the flames could reach him, he had landed in the river below.

A group of five people stood on the cliff above; they scanned the water below. Trying to find any signs of the child. One of them released an irritated growl as they stomped their foot. A sixth person quickly joined the group. The person was a teenaged male; probably around sixteen to seventeen years old. He wore a black hoodie over a ocean blue shirt. He wore navy blue cargo pants and on his head he wore a pale white cap.

"Did, y'all get the brat!?" He asked in a voice filled with anger.

"No, Jack," One of the other answered; by the tone of the voice it was a female teenager, "We lost him." She finished.

Jack gave off an angered growl as his hands balled into fists, "Well don't stand there!" He shouted in anger as he walked back into the woods, "Come on! We gotta find him!" He finished.

The five that stood near the cliff slowly got up and walked away. Each of them giving off the own irritated growls and groans. Some of them had taken something out of their pocket; which shot a red beam of light towards something. Before it shut off a little while later.

Beneath the violent surface of the water; the child was thrown hard against the rocks on the bottom of the river. He struggled to keep his mouth closed; just like he was struggling to right himself, so that he could swim up to the surface and take in some much needed air. Eventually he was able to get his bearing; allowing him to swim up and breach the surface. He gasped for air as he tried his best to keep his head above the surface. But, try as he might the current eventually dragged him underneath the waters surface again. He was violently slammed against a large boulder; which not him completely out. He body limply floated underneath the water. Both a very good and a very bad thing. Very bad for obvious reasons. Very good; because the poor child was heading right for a very large waterfall.

Once his body crested the top of the waterfall; he fell like a rock. His limbs flailing wildly in the air as he fell towards the water below. In a violent splash the river had pulled him under once again. It carried him farther and farther away from the group that had attacked him. Eventually the rivers current calmed and he floated up to the surface. The way his body floated in the water was almost unreal; it was as if the water had suddenly become sentient. For, he was carefully set on the edge of the river.

The boy was left alone for a little while; then from the tall grass nearby some rustling could be heard. It grew louder and louder; something large was heading right for his unconscious form. Eventually, a large shadow cast itself over him. Before, some creature picked his limp form off the cold, soggy ground. Carrying him off into the dark woods.

"Ugh," The boy groaned as his eyes slowly opened; he released a series of groans and aching moans as he sat up. He looked around and only saw darkness; another groan of pain escaped from his maw as he felt pain come from his right side. His left hand quickly shot to his side and gently gripped it. Slowly he started to get to his feet; only to immediately have his legs give out from underneath him, thankfully he manged to brace himself up against something. He then caught sight of a light off in the distance; he figure he was in some kind of tunnel. Slowly he began to walk towards the light; the sound of gravel crunch underneath his shoes confirmed that he was in a tunnel. Eventually, he reached the mouth of the cave and stood in the warm sunlight. His close were so ragged and torn from the previous night; one could say he was wearing nothing but rags, "Where am I?" He asked as his eyes began to slowly adjust to the harsh sunlight.

Once his eyes had adjusted to the light; he saw that he was in the middle of a very beautiful forest. The suns light made all of the trees leafs shine a little bit brighter. He was in awe at the amazing sight; he saw flowers in full broom on the tips of the tree branches. He could feel a warm breeze move across his body. But, the most amazing part about what he saw was the many different Pokemon. He was in complete awe at the number of many wild Pokemon he saw.

"Charizard." He heard a loud voice say.

His eyes went wide in horror as he slowly turned around; standing just inches behind him was a powerful Charizard. He fell to the ground screaming in horror as he backed away from the Pokemon. He saw it slowly walking towards him, "Char. Charizard, zard." He heard it say.

"G-Get away from me," The boy said in a voice full of nothing but fear, "Leave me alone." He continued to beg.

The plea fell on deaf ears for the Charizard continued to walk closer and closer to him. Eventually, the child had backed himself up against a tall tree. He panted in complete terror as the Charizard stood in front of him; possibly ready to finish him with a powerful fire attack. He held up his hands in front of him; the defense was pathetic and weak. He waited for the attack; he waited for his horrible end, but it never came.

"Charmander?" He heard a gentle voice say.

He felt his hands being slowly pushed back down; he shook in complete terror as he saw the familiar shade of red of the Charizard. He knew this was it for him; the final chapter in his really short book was being written. He shut his eyes tight and waited once again for the attack. Once again the attack never came. Slowly, he opened his eyes and saw the concerned face of a Charmander.

"Charmander?" The Charmander spoke in a voice filled with concern.

"Um...hey," The child spoke in an unease voice, "Um...I'm O'del." He finished as he extended his hand towards the Charmander.

The Charmander sniffed his hand, "Charmander," It said happily as it rubbed its head against the palm of his hand. On the inside O'del had pulled his hand back; while at the same time he was a little excited to be touching a Charmander. After all it was one of his regions three starter Pokemon.

"Sonic Boom!" O'del suddenly shouted as he shot up from the base of the tree; it made the two Pokemon in front of him quickly back away. He then started to run back towards the cave; once inside he started to scan the inside of the cave, "Where is it?! Where is my backpack?!" He shouted until his eyes came to rest on the object he was looking for. He quickly picked it up opened it and turned it upside down. Some water-logged books and some soaked papers feel out of the bag and onto the cave floor. He quickly started shifting through mess he had made; searching for something that seemed pretty important. Eventually he did find what it was looking for; it was a pokeball. The pokeball was a common pokeball; it just had a star painted on top of it. He hugged the pokeball close to his chest and started to cry happily, "Sonic boom." He cried as he pressed the button on the ball; making it become larger. He then three it a few feet in front of him.

The pokeball clicked opened and a bright light ejected from it; the light began to form into a very large being. Once the light faded all that was left was a very large Pokemon. It looked like a dragon that was part bat. It shook its head from side to side and opened its eyes; it looked around until it's eyes came to rest on O'del.

"Sonic boom." O'del said with much happiness in his voice.

"Noivern," The Pokemon spoke in a voice also filled with happiness, "Noi! Noivern!" It shouted.

O'del immediately ran forward and hugged the Noivern; it returned his hug with a hug of its own. He cried heavily into the Pokemons chest. He could hear the Noivern speaking words of comfort in its own language. Eventually, O'del had managed to calm himself down; he wiped his face of the tears that stained his face, backed away from the Pokemon.

"Thanks, Sonic boom," He thanked before he turned around and began to clean up his mess.

Just as soon as O'del had knelt to pick up the water-logged items he had dumped onto the cave floor. A very large wave of pain had coursed through his body; releasing a yell of pain he braced himself against the cave wall. Immediately, the Noivern had got to his side.

"Vern! Noi, Noivern!?" It asked in a concern tone.

O'del gently pushed the Pokemon away, "I'm fine Sonic," He lied as he tried to get to his feet. But, another wave of pain shot through him; making him cry out in pain once more.

By then the Charizard and the Charmander had joined them in the cave. Both of them were concerned for him; after all earlier that day Charizard had found him washed up by the river. The Charmander got next to O'del; begging him in the Pokemon language to not move. But, the child would not listen.

"Let me up," He said in a voice laced with pain; he tried to get up again, but he was gently pushed back down by the Noivern, "No." He whimpered.

"Noivern," The Noivern spoke in a gentle voice; it then locked eyes with O'del who started back into its eyes, "Noivern." It said just before O'del had fallen asleep.

For three whole days O'del and Sonic boom had stayed with the Charizard and the Charmander. As time went one; He eventually managed to regain his strength. He thanked both Charizard and Charmander for their kindness before leaving with Noivern. But, they did not leave alone. For, the Charmander had followed them.

Eventually the three managed to reach a small town; which had a Pokemon Center and a Pokemart. At the center O'del had his Noivern healed along with the Charmander that had accompanied them. O'del though it was nothing but complete luck when he saw that the Pokemart sold cloths. Which he thankfully had enough money for; after purchasing a solid black shirt, hoodie, pants, and brand new backpack. He collected his Pokemon from Nurse joy and walked out of the center.

Charmander walked beside O'del like he was his master; following him down any road or path he would take. Eventually the two had found their way into a small park in the middle of the town. After letting Noivern out of its pokeball; O'del had sat down on one of the many benches. Allowing him to pull a map he had purchased out of his backpack.

"Charmander?" The Charmander asked itself as it gazed up at O'del; who had his full attention directed on the map. The Charmander climbed onto the bench with O'del; who didn't seem to notice at first.

"So, We're in Lioa town," He said as his eye's scanned across the map; he then released an angry sigh as he folded up the map, "We're halfway across the Sabied region!" He shouted.

"Charmander!" Charmander yelled in surprise.

O'del jumped at the sound of Charmander's voice; he ended up falling off the bench and onto the ground below. Charmander had quickly jumped off the bend and got to O'dels side. Completely worried about O'del.

"I'm okay. I'm okay," O'del had quickly confirmed just before Sonic boom had joined them; sitting up straight he spoke, "Shouldn't you be getting back home, Charmander?" He asked.

"Char?" The Charmander asked in a voice full of confusion.

"Don't get the wrong idea," He quickly said in a hesitant voice; wondering if he had unintentionally offended the Charmander, "Both me and Sonic boom enjoyed having you with us. But, shouldn't you be getting back to Charizard?" He continued to ask.

The Charmander immediately shook its head, "Charmander, char. Charmander." It said as it walked closer to O'del.

"Huh?" O'del asked as Charmander suddenly hugged him snuggling up against his stomach, "Huh, hey. Hey, wait a minute!" He said in a voice filled with confusion.

"Mander?" Charmander asked.

"Charmander," O'del spoke, "I'm flattered that you wanna be my Pokemon; but I'm not even old enough to be a trainer," He explained which caused Charmander to grow more confused, "Sonic boom is my brothers Pokemon." He finished as he got to his feet; he reached for the map he had dropped nearby. He went to put the map back into his backpack; but as he was putting it away something had fallen out of his back pack. It was something wrapped in small gift wrapping; which was tied shut with a small string. One the item had hit the ground the wrapping had opened. Out from it fell five Pokeballs.

"What, the!?" O'del asked completely taken by surprise, "How did those get into my back pack?" He finished as he looked inside.

Inside the backpack was a small plastic card; he quickly pulled it out and read it, "As thank you to all of Sabied; for making us its number one must have item. We are gifting everyone in the region-who purchases our products- with five free pokeballs." He immediately broke out in a cold sweat; which got worse when he heard the familiar ping of a captured Pokemon.

When he turned around he saw one of the Pokeballs enlarged. Now he was sweating buckets; slowly he walked up to the Pokeball, picked it up and opened it. Sure enough the white light appeared from it. A few seconds later the light formed into the body of the Charmander; once the light was gone, Charmander was standing just a few feet in front of him with a huge grin on its face.

O'del turned his head up to the sky, "Come on!" He yelled; his voice echoed through the park. It caused a few heads to turn towards him. While Charmander began to laugh loudly in happiness. O'del released an irritated growl; before he looked down at the Charmander. He was about to say something but the Charmander had kept him quiet. For, it had walked up to him and hugged him. All O'del could do was just release an irritated sigh and return the hug. The Charmander happily nuzzled him.

"Okay," O'del said as he stood up; holding the Pokemon in his arms, "Guess the decision is final," He continued as he lifted up the Pokeball Charmander had come from; a red light shot from the center of the ball and hit the Pokemon. A few seconds later Charmander was sucked back into the Pokeball. He then took out the other Pokeball and whistled loudly. Sonic boom then swooped down from the air and landed in front of him. Just like Charmander, Sonic boom was called back into the Pokeball. He then placed both Pokeballs into his hoodies pocket. After releasing another heavy sigh; he began to walk out of the park and towards the exit of town. Once he was on the route out of town; he looked up to sky, as a single tear slid down from his eye, "I'm sorry." He apologized as he continued to walk down the route.

He eventually passed a sign; which pointed down the road. He took a quick glance up at the sign before he continued his walk. The sign read that a two was just up the road; the town was called "Damison village."
