Chapter 1
It was a quiet peaceful morning in the Kingdom of Pallet. It was also a very important morning. A new prince had been born to the son of King Samuel Oak. His majesty was lost in thought as his trusted advisor and closest friend, Tracy, prepared him for the coronation ceremony.
"You look troubled Your Majesty." The young boy noticed. He was right to. Oak had been in a state of grief ever since his son was killed at the hands of enemy forces several months ago. To make matters worse, he had received news that his daughter-in-law had passed away. Oak smiled and thanked Tracy for his assistance. He then greeted his friend Ivy who presented him his grandson.
"I must ask Samuel," the elder women asked. "What's his name?"
Oak thought long and hard, finally answering "Gary, after his father." The staff then bowed as the king made his way to a door bearing the royal symbol, a poke ball with two Seviper wrapped around it. As he made his way through the door, reaching a huge crowed who bowed to the new prince, he failed to notice the shadowy figure of Giovanni in the shadows of the throne room.
"Mark my words Samuel, you AND your precious grandsons days are numbered" With that, he disappeared into the shadows.
As the presentation was nearing its end, the old king noticed something. Giovanni was not on the balcony as he should have been.
"Off all the days he could forget…" the king muttered as he took out a Poke Ball. He clicked the button and out in a streak of white light came his Pidgeot. The magnificent bird was Oak's trusted partner and wore armor of a royal soldier. The bird spread out his glorious wings as the crowed slowly left. Oak reached out and stroke the Pokémon's feathers.
"Hello old friend." The king said, smiling as he stroke Pidgeot. "I need you to see if you can find Giovanni." He then turned to Ivy and said, "Watch Gary for me." After he mounted the Pokémon, Pidgeot took to the skies. It wasn't long until Pidgeot spotted something. Oak nodded at his loyal bird and dove to the ground. Upon reaching the building, he recalled Pidgeot. Inside sure enough, was Giovanni, stroking his Persian. Persian raised his head and meowed, telling Giovanni someone was there.
"Come in your highness," Giovanni said mockingly. Both he and Oak knew Persian only meowed like that when the king was nearby. Giovanni then brought out Persian's golden Poke Ball.
"Persian, return!" he said sternly as a red beam from the ball enveloped the cat. Oak then confronted the man. "Giovanni, why weren't you at your spot for Gary's presentation?"
Giovanni laughed smugly. "So, named the brat after his father eh?"
"I'd watch your mouth Giovanni," Oak warned. "He's my grandson and your future king!"
"Well then I guess I should go practice my etiquette!" Giovanni stated, walking out of the building. Oak sighed and sent out Pidgeot.
What am I going to do with him? The king thought to himself as he ventured forth to the castle.
