Prologue
I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth and I got everything I wanted. My best friend Dawn says I'm extremely modest even though I have all the money I need at my fingertips. My presence was graced only with a few bodyguards to protect me and still I find myself in the face of danger. I went to karate lessons ever since I was four and I'm proudly holding my title as a third degree black belt. Dad said it was to defend myself, I laughed in his face when he said that but still went to the damn classes.
But now, in my house with a knife pressed against my throat, I think it's safe to say he was right.

A nineteen year old boy jogged down the streets of Petalburg City. He just got off duty from work and he was enjoying every second of it. Beside him ran two Pokemon, a Lucario and a Pikachu. He was getting many stares from people particularly the female gender. Even at a young age, he truly looked like a male model. His raven black hair was combed in a spiky fashion with strands of hair covering his auburn eye. He had a strong jaw and defined cheekbones. But that wasn't where most of the attention was. He wore a tight fitting shirt that showed off his eight packs. His biceps contracting with each movement. He flashed a grin at a group of girls openly flirting with him and winked at who seemed to be the leader of the troop. They immediately giggled and waved back. He took his earbuds out and jogged past a large house. Petalburg Gym the sign read. The boy marveled at the large building before turning around to continue his run. A few steps later he felt a wave of something fall over him. More specifically, an aura of danger. The young adult stopped mid-step before sighing and turning back around to the large building.
"Why must trouble always find me?" he spoke his deep voice in a whine.

Max Maple was a smart kid, he often teased his sister and used to run his mouth. But at a time like this, he knew to shut up. Especially when he spotted a man enter through their porch door behind May and the crazy kidnapper. His eyes widened but immediately returned them to their original size so the masked man will not have suspicion against Max. The man put a finger to his lips and whispered something to a poke ball. A quiet entrance later, Max saw a cool looking Pokemon. It had a massive poof of hair behind it and razor sharp claws. It's main coloration was black and red a complete contrast to it's sharp white teeth. The mysterious trainer seemingly disappeared, but that's when he saw the Pokemon's eyes glow. The kidnapper had an immediate reaction. He dropped the knife and was looking around madly. Caroline and Normal looked baffled and that's when Max pointed out the Pokemon. May immediately ran over to her parent's side crying loudly, burrowing her face into Norman's chest. The glow from the eyes of the Pokemon finally ceased and the masked intruder growled in frustration. He picked up his knife once again and charged at the petrified family before a foot stuck out and tripped him. Max and his family turned to see the young man who was looking bored at the intruder.
"Really? That's all you've got?" The deep and alluring voice challenged. The man growled and swung at the ebony haired man. The trainer swiftly ducked and dodged all of the knife swings with grace and even back flipping to dodge another. May looked on, a blush adorning her face as the man fought but steeled her eyes, both of them were strangers, and she would fight the man once he's done. Let himself weaken and take both of them out in a smooth move and turn them in to the police. The auburn eyed trainer sent a swift roundhouse kick when an opening presented itself and sent the man doubling over. He quickly hit the back of his neck and smacked his head onto the wall, knocking him out.
"Now that's taken care of, what the heck was he doin-" The young male spoke turning around to face the family when he was kicked in the gut by the attacked girl. A small oomph escaped his full lips as he staggered back not expecting it.
"Damn, you sure can kick." He grunted dodging a punch. He grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her back and pinned her to ground. Max snickered at his sister's flustered face while she glared at him to do something. Max chuckled before stopping, the color draining from his face as he put his hands up. The raven haired trainer turned around and let a groan out. There the thief was standing with a gun outstretched pointing at the trainer. He smirked and the gun fired with bang. Before the bullet could even reach teen a metallic tail appeared in the path of the bullet and ricocheted off it and lodged itself in the wall. A lucario lowered his tail and growled. A Pikachu appeared landing on top of the intruder's head and shocked him to oblivion. Lucario and the mysterious Pokemon walked up to their master while Pikachu jumped onto his shoulder. The stranger picked the pokemon up off his shoulder and nuzzled his cheek with Pikachu's.
Caroline and Norman smiled at the bond the young teen had with his Pokemon. Max looked up at the towering stranger with stars in his eyes.
He flipped open a cellphone and punched in a number. "Hey Paul, yeah I need a favor…..No I did not get into trouble…..Okay fine maybe I did but I need you and the team to get down here, I just took down a robber at the Petalburg Gym….I know it's supposed to be our break but you know trouble follows me everywhere….all right….thanks man." He pulled out a chair from the dining table and a rubix cube from his pocket and got to work at solving it. A couple minutes later, the thief had started to wake up but the teenage dude said Pikachu's name without even looking up and the little mouse shocked him once more sending him into the realm of dreams.
A while later, a few guys walked in with an Officer Jenny. They were all attractive but the raven haired teen with the Pikachu was admittedly cuter. There were three of them. A purple haired guy who looked like he didn't want to be here, a blondie who had a passive look on his face and lastly an auburn haired boy who screamed arrogant prick. The Officer Jenny looked at the teen and sighed.
"Why is it always you Ash?"
The teen scoffed and responded, "It's not like I want this to happen on my break, but trouble seems to follow me everywhere Jen. What am I supposed to do? Walk away?"
"I feel bad for your mother, poor thing." She smirked and ruffled his styled and slightly sweaty hair, "I want you on the train heading to Kanto when your break is over, and don't get into any more trouble. Understand?"
"She's right Ashy-boy, we can't keep cleaning up your messes." The auburn haired boy snickered.
"Shut it Gary." Ash scowled.
"He's got a point you know…" The purple haired boy grunted while the blond one nodded along to both of the boys' arguments.
"Screw all of you guys." Ash bit out, "It's not my fault that I get all the problems. All I was doing was going on my run and my aura sensed this guy's repulsive aura and I couldn't let them get screwed over. So yeah…"
"Anyways, good to see you again Ash, Paul, Gary and Trip and once more, thank you for your remarkable services in the force these past few months." Officer Jenny saluted them and turned to the Maple family. The group of four left and there was silence as the teal haired officer handcuffed the intruder and set him aside with a Growlithe keeping charge.
May spoke up wanting to know her mysterious savior, "Who were they?"
Jenny looked proud at the mention of them. "They, my dear May Maple, are the best squad of the G-Men organization led by Lance, Champion of kanto. They even work with the champions to neutralize threats such as Team Rocket. They are also Lance's right hand men in a situation and a few of his best friends. I had the pleasure of working with them the past few months on a Team Rocket here in Petalburg. You know of the attacks on the Gym and the Pokémon Centers correct?"
Norman and Caroline sighed in relief knowing that the kid was not just somebody trying to play hero. "Well make sure to tell them thank you because we never got the chance. We probably will never see them again."
May nodded thinking the same thing, but how wrong was she.
