A/N: This is the first fan-fic I have ever written, so please don't be too harsh, but again please review and tell me what you thought! Constructive Criticism is always welcome.
I watched as the man raised a machete, MY machete, its cold steel gleamed in the bright morning sun. He brought the machete down in a strong blow, when it came back up the gleam was gone and instead it was a deep red...I could not stand the sight and I slid into the darkness.
I awoke later that night to the smell of cooking meat in the distance, and on the ground next to me in a swath of blood lay the head of Selena, my Seviper. The man walked through the treeline, into the open field where I lay, and let out a deep-throated laugh. My stomach churned, and in a fit of rage I began to scream and thrash on the ground to no avail. The thrashing had rubbed my wrists raw on the rope with which I was bound, causing them to begin to bleed. All I could think to do was spit at his feet and let out a long stream of obcenities...which only seemed to amuse him.I still don't understand why he had attacked, the man had snuck up on us, when he attacked me, I yelled for my other pokemon to run, Selena stayed to protect me...foolish snake...she was rash and he managed to pin her to the ground, and then ended her life, but she won't be alone for long, I'm sure I'll be joining her soon. The man soon became tired of my howls and slowly approached me with the machete raised above his head, and then as I was preparing to say my final prayers and give up all hope a miracle happened.
Two deafening roars escaped the forest, and by the time he turned to see the source, they were upon him. What happened in seconds seemed to take hours, my Typhlosion, Crim, rushed out of the forest and in a wheel of flame he scorched the mans arm, disarming him. Just as quickly as the fire died, Crim had spun around and tackled the man to the ground on his back, pinned. A large Salamence...Sasha?...lumbered towards the pinned man and let out a low menacing snarl. Sasha bore his teeth into the soft flesh near the shoulder, and tore his arm clean off. The man cryed out in pain, as the bloody pulp of what he once called his shoulder was shredded to pieces. The idiot began insulting the two, saying that he would kill them for what they had done, even as a pool of blood began to well up in the dirt around his shoulder.
I could see the fury in Crims' eyes, and knew that he was tired of this murderers false bravado. Crim let out one final terrifying roar, and I was glad to know that this man would not get away with what he had done to my family. The flames on Crims' back erupted and began to dance vicariously, I had to fight to not go into a trance, as I knew I would want to remember the spectacle unfolding before my eyes. Heat began to emanate from every bit of his form, he leaned back his head, his angled features accentuated in the moonlight. Staring back down at his victim, he let a tendril of smoke escape his nostrils, before unleashing a brilliant red torrent of fire directly in the mans face.
He screamed and writhed, attempting to free himself, but Sasha stomped down on his free arm, crushing it, I could hear the bones snap and crunch under the Salamences' great weight. All the while, the flames blistered the mans face, and began to peel away at the flesh. His muscles burned away and the man let out one last blood currdling scream...before Crim stepped off of him and walked away, leaving behind a smoldering corpse. Suddenly I could smell it, all of it, the smell of burnt flesh washed over me, clogging my nostrils and I turned away to try and avoid the smell. I felt the bonds over my hands severed, and a Poochyena slumped down at my side, poor Bogart, he must be so frightened by what had happened...I pulled him into my arms and leaned back against a tree nearby, while he licked the wounds on my wrists. I fell into a deep sleep, glad that everything was over and we were all ok...and then I remembered what I would have to do first thing in the morning...I would bury Selena, or at least what was left of her...
E/N: I wrote this as a one-shot, but if I get enough positive reviews, I may flesh it out a bit...or even just create a new storyline with these base characters. Please Review so I know what you all thought! And feel free to send me a PM if there's anything you want to mention to me. Thanks! Oh, and I just did a quick edit, to fix some typos ane other errors, if you ever notice anything major like that, just tell me and I can go back and fix it.
