Pikachu: Pika pika!

Me: Pikachu, the readers don't understand you. They want you to speak English.

Pikachu: -glares- Fine. Leah does not own Pokemon, even though she really wants to and would jump off a cliff to have the chance to.

Me: -cough- A small cliff.

Anyways, that's my disclaimer. I'm not on the computer as much as I like, but I do what I can. This particular fanfiction was written practically an eternity ago. Make that 'started'. I never finished it, so maybe I'll get around to it. Please don't flame me if any anime characters are OOC. Chapters already written are extremely short, so by the time I'm done with the story, I'll likely have over a hundred chapters. If I feel like I need to tell you readers anything else, I'll do so later. Enjoy, and please review!


Prologue

An 8-year-old sat on a bench. Anyone could see that she was waiting for something. The doors to the building behind her flew open. A man's voice boomed, "Kiwanasi."

Trembling, the girl stood up and walked through the giant, oaken doors. Inside, there was a chair in front of thirteen people. She sat down in the chair, awaiting the word of the council.

A balding man stood up, holding a few sheets of paper. "Name: Kiwanasi. Crime: Being able to change into Pokemon. Verdict of council: Banished." The man sat down after reading.

She knew it. Just for being different, she, Kiwanasi, was being banished from her village.

"You must choose a new name," an elderly woman remarked, cold indifference lurking in her voice.Kiwanasi bit her lip to keep from crying out. She wasn't expecting this!"What do you want it to be? You can choose or the council can choose," the lady continued.

Kiwanasi thought quickly, but her mind was a blank. "I...I'd like the council to choose," she stuttered.

The woman considered this and said, "You shall be Mishatu." Council members began muttering to themselves. 'Mishatu' meant outcast.

Kiwanasi nodded, the only thing she could do whether she liked the name or not. A man gestured for her to stand up and follow. She did so and was led out of the village.

Mishatu, as she was now called, transformed into a bird Pokemon and flew.


I told you that it was going to be short. I'll try and remember to post a new chapter every week, so if I don't, hunt down my e-mail and send a couple messages each to me and get me to write more. Um... Review if you would please. Oh, and just so you know, I have issues with characters not having special abilities. I might get around to a fic without a charrie having special powers, but that'll take awhile. Thanks!
