Prologue
Our story begins on a warm sunny day just at the beginning of Fall. The wind was blowing the fresh scent of the natural world through the tops of the trees. The Pokémon were happily going about their lives collecting food and socializing.
*BANG!*
A loud explosive sound was heard echoing through the woods scaring Pokémon and forcing them to hide wherever they could.
A tall man is seen running through the forest toward the air splitting sound. Jumping over roots and bushes trying not to be slowed down is rushing as fast as he can. *BANG!* A second shot was heard as he was almost at the destination.
When the man came to the spot where the sound came from he found his friend standing over a seriously wounded Pokémon. A Pokémon with nine golden tails that are now stained crimson from a wound on her hind leg is lying on the ground clinging to life by a single thread. The man looked at his friend and snatched the gun away.
"What the Fuck! You shot it!"
"I told you I found where it was living, what's wrong, you wanted it dead too?"
"You should have waited Damien! This Pokémon did not kill our Eevee! It was a Houndoom, I found tracks. Not only that, but I found it too. It got caught in someone else's trap."
"Are you sure Norman, it could have been this Ninetales!?"
"I'm positive. If you would have just listened to me before you wanted to kill something this would not have happened. Just. Go home. NOW!"
Norman's friend Damien grabbed his gun back and took off.
Norman then slowly walked over to the Ninetales being careful it does not hurt him. He could see where the bullets hit her and he knew she would not be alive much longer.
"I am so sorry. I did not mean for this to happen."
The Ninetales struggled to open its eyes and tried to open its mouth like it wanted to speak, but nothing came out but blood. Norman got closer and tried to comfort the Ninetales before its sprit drifted away. Its breathing got very slow.
"Please…" Norman heard a voice, not like it was being spoken but as if it were in his head, "don't… leave my baby here."
Norman noticed that the voice was coming from the Ninetales. He heard of them being able to communicate with people but this is the first time he could hear it for himself, when it was dying.
"Please take my baby," she said again, "I don't want her to end up the same way."
Norman saw an egg she was covering up with her tails. She moved her tails and let him pick it up.
"I do not blame you. Your friend on the other hand is another story."
"I am so sorry, this would not have happened if I made him stay with me."
"It is not your fault," the Ninetales said with a cough, "What others do is not your fault. Please, just take care of my baby. Don't…. I don't want her to have to live like I did. Please take care of her for me."
"I will you don't have to worry," Norman said as he stayed close to the Ninetales so she does not die alone, "I will make sure to protect her. I will have a son soon, who she can play with and they can protect each other in the years to come."
"Thank you… I can tell you are a good man, and I can die knowing that my baby will be safe."
Normal made sure to sit with her and comfort her until she passed away. After she did he quickly went to his house and put the egg in a safe place. He went back and buried the Ninetales' body under an old oak tree.
Norman did not speak to Damien for many days. Eventually Damien visited him and apologized for his foolish choices. Norman could tell he regretted killing the Ninetales, but there was nothing he could do to make it go away.
After a few weeks Norman's wife Clair went into labor. At around six o'clock on November 11, 1996 a baby boy was born. They named him Michael. Later that morning when Norman went home to get some things to bring to the hospital he noticed the egg was close to hatching. He brought it with him to the hospital where Nurse Joy made sure it hatched safely. Norman named the baby vulpix Lena.
That day a boy and a Pokémon were born. This is the start of their story. Not only that but an adventure that will take them both many places.
Chapter 1: Genesis
19 Years Later
"Come on Mikey, get up!" a playful voice shouted as he was being pounced on.
"Lena, it's Saturday. Why do we need to get up early?" Mikey said.
"Oh don't tell me you forgot about your own birthday! OUR birthday!" Lena said while coming to rest on his chest while he is buried under his blanket.
"Don't worry, I didn't forget. That is why I have your present right here." Mikey said as he grabbed Lena and tried to tickle her.
Lena backed off just in time, "Ha, nice try. You know I hate being tickled," she said while pouncing on him again.
"So are you happy that you turned nineteen today?" Mikey asked her.
"Yeah I am, because we get to exchange gifts now!" Lena said with excitement.
"You got me a gift? You don't even have money." Mikey told her.
"I don't have money, but our parents do." She told him.
"I guess that works too. So what did you get me?" Mikey asked.
"Nope. You need to get out of bed first." Lena demanded.
"Alright, fine."
Mikey got out of bed and stood up. Mike is about 5 feet 10 inches with medium length hair he kind of keeps brushed to the side a bit, except now his hair looks like a mess.
Lena walked to the closet to get Mikey's gift as he sat on his bed.
"Alright here." She said through her teeth carrying the neatly wrapped box.
"What is it?" Mikey said.
"Just open it and find out." Lena told him.
Mikey pulled the ribbons on top and tried not to mess up the box. Lena hates it when gift wrapping gets messed up, because she puts lots of time into it.
Mike opened the small box and inside was a brand new PokeGear watch. It is grey with blue accents on it. It has GPS, a phone and many other cool things on it.
"So what do you think?" Lena asked.
"It's awesome, thanks Lena. I wish I got you something this cool." Mike told her.
"It's fine, I just wanted you to have something you can use while we go out and study things, or maybe if we even go on an adventure." Lena hinted.
Mike and Lena have wanted to go on an adventure for the longest time. Instead of going on a journey at ten years old Mike stayed home to study and even started doing his own Pokémon research. They have been planning on go on an adventure, but things keep getting in the way.
"Alright I'm going to get your gift now. Close your eyes." Mikey told her.
"Ok, their closed. Why do I need to close my eyes?" She asked.
Mikey crawled under the desk next to his bed and grabbed a wooden box. It is about the size of a cigar box, except it was not for cigars.
"Ok open them."
Lena opened her eyes and saw the wooden box, "You got me cigars?"
"No, this is just a box. It is not even a cigar box either. Go ahead and open it." He told her.
Lena used her nose to open it. When the lid opened she could not believe what was in the box.
"Is this what I think it is?" She asked.
"Yep it sure is. Now, don't think you have to use it now ok. It's completely up to you." Mike told her.
"How did you get a fire stone? These are hard time come across." She asked.
"It's no problem. Especially when you are getting ready to go on an adventure." Mike put extra emphasis on the word adventure.
"REALLY! We're going to go on an adventure!?" She asked.
"Yep, I made sure nothing can stop us. I have been planning this for the past month. Happy birthday!" He said.
Lena was so excited, she was not sure what to say or do. She just jumped on Mikey and tried her best to give him a hug.
"Thank you Mikey! I always wanted to go on an adventure with you, now we can." Lena said.
"Lena, about the fire stone. You don't need to evolve if you don't want to. Although I am sure you are excited about it, you should take some time to decide what you want to do." Mike told her.
"Thank you, I will think about it today and let you know what I decide. For now let's get ready for the day, I want to bring you somewhere." She told him.
"Where are we going?" Mikey asked.
"It's a surprise, just get ready and hurry!" She told him.
Mike did ash she said and quickly got out of his pajamas and put on a pair of jeans and an orange flannel shirt. He put on his new watch Lena got him and then fixed up his hair. Once he was done they both went downstairs.
"Where are mom and dad?" Mikey asked Lena.
"I don't know," she said, "maybe they went to get some things for your birthday."
"Probably stuff for a dinner." Mike said.
"Alright come on lets go." Lena told him.
Mike and opened the door and they both walked out. Lena led Mike down the street towards the park where one of the event buildings was.
"What are we doing here?" Mikey asked her?
"Come on let's go inside." Lena told him.
Mike followed Lena inside and was surprised when he saw his friends and parents there shooting confetti in the air.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" They all said.
"Thanks everyone." Mike told them
"Do you like it?" Lena asked Mike.
"Yes, it amazing. I'm surprised you could pull this off without me knowing since you are always with me." Mike said.
"Yeah it wasn't easy," Lena told him, "but with the help from everyone it worked."
Mike's friend Daniel walked up, "Hey, you ready to party? We got plenty of soda and snacks. Not only that but we have some games too."
"Yeah, and thanks for the party." Mike told him.
"No problem, but without Lena's great ideas it would not have happened." Daniel said.
"How did she tell you what to do if you can't understand her?" Mike asked.
"Simple, she emailed me." Daniel told him.
"Oh well that explains how she was able to do it without leaving my side." Mike said.
Mike's parents walked up and his mom gave him a hug.
"Thanks for the party." Mike said.
"Your welcome sweetie." His mom said.
"When we got the email from Lena we thought it would be a great idea. She really spent a lot of time preparing it." Mike's dad told him.
"Thanks Lena, just don't forget this is yours too. Go ahead and have fun, I will stay close." Mike told her.
"Ok, I think I'm going to get some food first." Lena said before she ran off towards the snacks.
"Go ahead and have fun, we will do the cake and presents in a little while." His dad told him.
Mike walked over to his friends who were playing Call of Duty. They started playing free for all matches until it turned into zombies. Mikey wasn't the best but he still liked playing it. After about thirty minutes Mike's parents announced it was time for cake. Everyone quickly made their way to the table.
Mike's mom announced, "Alright everyone, the two nineteen year olds get the first slices."
Mikey grabbed two plates and got him and Lena a slice of the tres leches cake, it is Spanish for "three milks." A sweet cake that better than any other in Mike and Lena's minds. Once they both got their cake everyone else was served. Everyone ate their cake and waited for the others so they could watch Mike and Lena open their gifts. Mike grabbed the first box, it was for Lena. He neatly opened it for her. Inside was a new purple bow from Daniel.
"Thank you Daniel." Lena said happily while Mike put the bow on her head.
Mike then grabbed another box which was for him from his parents. He opened it up and inside was a new Pokémon trainer's belt, with poke balls on it. There was also a new hat and traveling pack.
"Thanks, how did you know we were going to go on a journey?" Mike asked them.
"It's not hard to see when you are excited about something, plus the new maps and camping gear were a dead giveaway." His dad said.
After all the presents were opened it was time for people to leave. Mikey thanked them all for helping out and coming. Once everyone left him and Lena made their way back home.
When they got home Mike opened the door to the house and they both went upstairs.
"That sure was fun, thanks Lena for setting that up." Mike said.
"Your welcome. I had fun too. Daniels Eevee and I played with the other Pokémon." She said.
Mikey jumped on his bed and laid down. Lena followed and laid down with him.
"So, I made up my mind. I want to evolve." Lena said.
Mike turned to her, "Are you sure, once you do it you can't go back."
"Yeah I'm sure. If I want to keep you safe on our journey I need to be as strong as I can. If I evolved I can do that and I can also win battles for you." Lena told him.
Mike picked up the box with the fire stone in it and set it on the bed next to her.
"Alright, whenever you are ready I am too." He told her.
Lena was a bit nervous, but she knew it was what she wanted and what she needed to do. She opened the box and placed her paw on the warm stone. Suddenly the stone grew bright and Lena started to glow a bright white too. Mikey watched as the vulpix he grew up with evolved right next to him. After the light ended no longer was there a small vulpix, but a three foot six inch Ninetales with beautiful golden fur and nine amazing tails that spread out behind her.
"Lena, you look amazing!" Mikey said.
"Thank you Mikey." She said as she jumped off the bed to look in the mirror.
Lena saw how she looked with her new fur and nine tails. She got so excited she jumped on Mikey who was still sitting on the bed and started licking him to show her gratefulness.
"Thank you Mikey so much, you could not have gotten me anything better!" Lena said as she continued to show her gratitude.
"You're welcome Lena," Mikey said, "but could you please get off. You aren't small anymore."
"Oh sorry," she said as she crawled off of him, "I forgot."
"It's fine Lena. So are you ready to show mom and dad?" Mike asked.
"Yeah let's hurry!" She said as she jumped off the bed.
Lena and Mike hurried downstairs to show their parents. Mike's parents were so happy to see the new Lena. After a nice steak dinner, which was Lena and Mike's favorite food, they went back up to their room to get ready for bed.
"I am so full." Mike said as he closed the door.
He didn't realize that one of Lena's tails was not inside the door and it closed on it.
"AHHH!" Lena screamed.
"I am so sorry Lena, you alright?" He asked.
"Yeah, I think so. These things are longer than I thought." Lena said with watery eyes.
"I'm sorry, here get on the bed and I will take a look at it." Mikey told her.
Lena carefully jumped on the bed and laid down.
"Hmm, it seems fine. It's not bleeding or anything. It will probably be sore for a little bit is all." Mike told her.
"That's good," she said as she laid her head down.
Mike laid down next to her and rubbed her side. Her new fur was much softer than when she was a vulpix.
Lena turned over and asked, "So when are we going to start our journey?"
Mikey said, "Well, why don't we go tomorrow? I have everything we need packed up."
"We can really leave tomorrow? Where will we go first?" She asked.
"Probably to Viridian City, there is a gym there." Mike told her.
"I always wanted to go out of town for more than just a few days. Now we can really explore and see new things." Lena said.
"I can't wait either. I think we should just go to bed now so that way tomorrow will come faster." Mike said.
Lena got up and jumped off the bed, "Alright, when you are ready can brush me first. I don't want my new fur to get messed up." She said with a smile.
Mike got up and put on his pajamas and grabbed her brush. Lena sat on the floor next to the bed and let Mikey brush her. It was definitely more difficult that brushing a vulpix's fur. Mike finished brushing her and put the brush down.
"Alright, let's go to bed now. We have a big day ahead of us and we need all the rest we can get." Mikey told Lena.
Mike laid down in the bed and pull the blanket over him. Lena jumped up and laid next to him. She liked being bigger, the only problem is that the bed seems smaller.
"Goodnight Mikey." Lena told him.
"Goodnight." He replied.
