The Disaster

by 175382649

Life is hell now, since the outbreak on Cinnabar. Just trying to stay alive is hard enough, let alone rescuing and maintaining my party. This is my story, from the beginning of it all up to now. Let it be heard. There are survivors.

1. Chapter 1

AN: This is my first fic ever, so it has a good chance of sucking. Please, R&R and tell me how to improve. Trust me, this was just introductory. The next chapters I have planned will be better.

My name is Jason Little. I'm a survivor of the outbreak on Cinnabar, and the resulting spread. I'm still not sure how it happened, but it did, and the world has gone to hell because of it. This is my personal recount that will start approximately two weeks preceding the events, and the events directly after, leading up to the present. This is by no means an easy story to tell, as it's still happening. Let me start from the beginning. I feel that this will be an easier place to start.

"Sir, can I get you anything else?" Asked an attendant.

"No, but thank you. What time should we be arriving?"

"We should be making port in Slateport in about three hours time, sir."

"Thank you ma'am. That's all."

I took a sip of my lemonade through the straw. Today is finally my 16th birthday. 16th birthdays in my family mean getting out of school and leaving the house for your own journey. My brother left three years ago, and he is currently challenging the gyms of Kanto. Being from Johto, this wasn't a long trip to get there, even if we lived in Violet City. Just a short trip to Goldenrod, and then the Magnet train ride over to Saffron.

MY trip however, took a little bit longer. After saying my goodbyes this morning, I set out early to catch the boat from Olivine to Slateport, about a seven hour cruise. With only my backpack, some money, and Vern by my side, it was going to be a long trip. Vern is my Charmander, I've had him since I caught him in 9th year, at age 15. He's a loyal Pokemon and a good friend, very smart too. Anyways, we started the cruise at 11 AM, meaning we would be arriving at about 6 PM. I was planning on doing the gym challenge, starting with Mauville and going from there. It seemed fun enough, and with Vern at my side I was confident we could make it. I could tell already, this was going to be a great journey, one I could tell about for years.
