Chapter 1

The sun rose over the trees as it bathed the small town in an orange glow, slowly the people began to awaken and go about their day. However this was no ordinary town, in this town lived humans and Pokemon side by side, each helping one and other out. Each day there was something new happening and each day was different even if the people and Pokemon were still the same, no one knew how Pokemon were created and no one knew just how they came to be all anyone knew was they were here to stay.

In the Kanto region next to a small town called Pallet town was another town, surrounded by trees. However it was because of this that people tended to forget that there was another two next to Pallet town, even the people of Pallet town sometimes forgot that there was another town next to theirs. The small town of Katli was normally peaceful and everyone knew each other, people had grown up with one and other.

Grandfathers, grandmothers, fathers, mothers and even friends. They had all grown up with one and other, and even though they fought like anyone would do as a whole the town was still there for one and other, and even though the town was small it didn't stop the children from going on Pokemon journeys, it didn't stop them from dreaming about becoming a Pokemon champion or a Pokemon master, it didn't stop their families from worrying and it didn't stop people from wanting to take over the world.

As a flock of Pidgeys flew over the houses people began to leave their homes and go about their daily business, however there was already someone up and he had been up long before any of the other townspeople, his hands were covered in dirt and next to him was a basket filled with berries.

"That's the last of them."

Henry Black was an albino, while it had been a shock to many of the townspeople they had grown used to his appearance and accepted him for who he was, long white hair was tied back in a ponytail as he used the back of his hand to wipe his forehead.

"Henry come on! We are going to be late!"

Micaela was Henry's older sister, she had purple eyes and jet black hair and if Henry hadn't been born an albino he would have looked liked his older sister, however it looked as if fate had not liked him. Not that either of them minded it made it easier to tell them apart, Micaela came out of the house and was holding two eggs. The brother and sister duo had found the eggs when they had been wandering through the forest looking for berries to make into pokeblocks and poke jam, while they were well loved by any and all Pokemon it was hard to make the jam as the berries had to be fresh otherwise they would lose whatever healing properties they had. While turning the berries into jam was a time consuming task it was a fun one, after all there was always some left over and they would all enjoy some. Although their grandfather's Ninetails seemed to enjoy it far more than they did, although it wasn't that surprising as wild Pokemon lived off berries.

"Coming!"

Henry quickly stood up and turned to greet his sister.

"Mica, looking as lovely as ever."

Micaela rolled her eyes at her brother and began walking back into the house, the eggs safely still tucked in her arms.

"We told Professor Oak we would be there soon."

The reason they were going to visit Professor Oak was because they were going to get their starter Pokemon and go out on their own Pokemon journey, and even though they were 16 and far older than some of the others that went out on the journey at 10. They had still decided that they were going to do it, after all they knew that they only lived once and they were going to enjoy every moment of their life, no matter how long or short it was. Micaela passed Henry his egg and he smiled when he felt it move slightly, while they had no idea what Pokemon was inside of the eggs they were looking forwards to seeing them hatch.

The two of them began walking to Pallet town and both of them enjoyed the walk, while they had done research about what started Pokemon they would receive they didn't know for certain which one they would pick, they didn't know what Pokemon was in the eggs and while they were excited to find out they didn't want to have a Pokemon that would bully the baby one. Not only would it not be fair it could also cause problems later on down the line, their grandfather had raised them since their parents had went missing some 6 years ago, it was part of the reason as to why they had waited so long before going out on the Pokemon journey but they weren't going to put it off any longer.

"Fire, grass and water. Which one will you pick?"

Purple eyes looked at Henry as he moved the egg around in his arms, Henry hummed as he thought over which one he would pick and if he was honest with himself he had no real idea which one he would pick.

"Not sure, I'm playing wait and see."

Micaela nodded her head as she wrapped the blanket around the egg slightly tighter, she didn't want the egg getting cold and anything happening to the baby Pokemon inside, she wasn't sure what she would do if anything happened to it. Not after she had cared for the egg for so long, she knew that it was her maternal instincts but their own mother had left them, and then the Pokemon's mother had left them, so in a way she would be the little one's mother.

"Same."

The two of them began humming as they walked through the trees, their eggs safely in their arms. While the two of them may look normal there was nothing normal about them, for years they had been physics. Everyone in their family for as long as anyone was able to remember had been one, their great grandfather was one and it had just continued on from there. The grandfather had taught them how to control their abilities making sure that they didn't invade people's thoughts, it had been a bit of a problem when they had been younger as neither of them had been able to stop themselves from hearing everyone's thoughts.

With a lot of time and patience they had learned how to control it, and while they had not been able to master their abilities they could now understand Pokemon, which had been a relief to them. With them now understanding what Pokemon were saying they knew how to look after them, after all how could they know that a Pokemon was poisoned if they couldn't understand what they were saying?

It had helped out a lot and they had managed to save all sorts of Pokemon, and each time they did manage to save one they felt better about themselves, it wasn't about using their powers or about the fact that they could use such powers, it was because they were helping both people and Pokemon. Although they had to keep their abilities hidden most of the time it didn't stop them from helping people out.

"I wonder what type of Pokemon they will be, we know that they are grass, water and fire. But what will they be? Will they be a Bulbasaur or something else? Each region has different starter Pokemon but they are still the three basic ones."

If there was one thing Micaela loved about her brother it was if something needed to be explained, the explanation was short sweet and to the point. However sometimes he would often go on a little too much and leave people confused, Micaela would just roll her eyes when he began confusing people. It was how he kept people at arms length, well people not from the town as everyone in the town seemed to love the two of them. Not that Micaela could blame them, they were quite awesome.

"I hope there is a Charmander."

Henry rolled his eyes, but he knew that his sister loved fire Pokemon with a passion and she had learned most things about them, and even though they were just starting out on their journey they had been preparing for years, and even though they had to put it off several times this time they were going to do it. Henry rolled his eyes, but he knew that his sister loved fire Pokemon with a passion and she had learned most things about them, and even though they were just starting out on their journey they had been preparing for years, and even though they had to put it off several times this time they were going to do it.

The two of them continued to walk through the grass, while it wasn't homes for the Pokemon they still had to be careful as the sounds of the grass moving could cause the nearby Pokemon to come and see what was going on, something that they didn't want to happen as they had no real way of defending themselves or capturing a Pokemon, the last thing either of them wanted was anything to happen to the eggs that they were carrying.

"Pallet town should be coming up."

The two of them continued to walk at a slow speed being careful so they didn't damage the eggs in any way, they had no idea how durable their eggs were and they didn't want to take the risk that they could end up damaging them should they run. Even though the walk between the two towns was a short one, that didn't mean there wasn't any Pokemon. Since the two towns were surrounded by trees and grass, there was no shortage of Pokemon and many people who would walk between the two towns would often find themselves being attacked by a wild Pokemon. Micaela raised her free hand as she pointed in front of them.

"There is pallet town!"

Henry nodded his head and the two of them began to pick up their pace slightly, while they had increased their speed they were still mindful of where they were walking as they knew that the path was used by Pokemon and people but it was Pokemon that used the dirt path more on a daily basis and they didn't want to run into one just yet, after all they had no real way of defending themselves or any way to catch the Pokemon either and while they could out run a Pokemon they had no real way of knowing if the could or not. As soon as they entered the town the two of them let out a almost silent sigh of relief, they had made it to the town without any problems so far.

"There is Professor Oak's lab."

A few feet in front of them was a building that was surrounded by a fence, it was clear that it was to keep Pokemon in and people out, while it wasn't uncommon for people to steal Pokemon people knew better than to try and steal from a Pokemon professor as they didn't know just how strong the Pokemon living in the lab were. That didn't mean that people didn't try, they did and more often than not the failed to capture any Pokemon, instead they ended up black and blue from the attacks that they had received from the Pokemon. The two of them walked up to the building and looked at it, Henry gently moved the Pokemon egg in his arms before he took a deep breath.

"Ready?"

Micaela nodded her head, her eyes were like steel as she pushed open the door and looked around. Tables were filled with paperwork, Pokedexs were scattered around their different designs telling the two of them that they weren't from the Kanto region, the two of them continued to look around their eyes wide as they took in the mess that was the professors Pokemon lab.

"Hello? Professor Oak?"

The two of them jumped slightly when they heard a thud followed by some muttering, the brother and sister shared a look.

"Ah! You two must be Henry and Micaela, your grandfather told me you were coming over."

The two of them shared a smile at the mention of their grandfather, while the man had many good stories about his days as a Pokemon trainer he was also strict when it came to their abilities, as not many people were physic and he didn't want them to abuse their power.

"Here we have three pokeballs, in each one of them is a Pokemon. Grass."

Oak opened the pokeball and a green Pokemon with a giant bulb on it's back, came out of the pokeball. Sleepy red eyes looked around the room as he tried to figure out just why he had been called out of the pokeball.

"Bublaaaa." "What?"

Henry and Micaela knelt down to get a better look at the Pokemon, red eyes locked onto the two of them and they felt themselves being pinned into place. They both had the feeling that the Pokemon in front of them didn't like them at all, the two of them wrapped their arms around their eggs tighter as they glared at the arrogant grass Pokemon.

"Perhaps Bulbasaur isn't for either of you."

Oak took the next pokeball and opened it, a bright white light left the two of them slightly dazed and blind for a few seconds. Brown eyes were wide with excitement as the small orange Pokemon began looking around the room, the small flame on it's tail getting bigger every time it saw something new.

"This is Charmander, as you can see he is a fire type Pokemon."

She lifted it so they could lock eyes. She tilted her head to one side. The Charmander copied her. She tilted to the other. Again, the baby Pokémon imitated her. "Chaaar~" "Mama!"

"Oh, aren't an adorable little thing?" She cooed and embraced it, rubbing her cheek against orange ones. The Charmander released a deep growl from the back of it's throat as it wiggled down and Charmander tackled into Micaela and nearly knocked the two of them to the floor. A deep growl left the Charmander as it continued to get comfortable in Micaela's embrace.

"Well it looks like Charmander chose you and not the other way around!"

Oak and Henry laughed as they watched Micaela try to push the Charmander off her while she stood up, but all that kept happening was it kept clinging to her legs every time she moved, it was clear that Charmander didn't want to be parted from Micaela. Oak held the last ball and Henry knew that this Pokemon was the one for him, while he knew that it would be a water type he was eager to see just what type it was. A bright white light entered the small room as the Pokemon came about the ball by itself.

"Squ, Squirtle!" "Ma? Mama!"

Henry felt his heart go out to the small blue Pokemon, they could all see that it wanted to curl back up into it's shell and not come back out again, Micaela held Charmander in one arm while her other one held the egg out of Charmander's reach as it was clear that the baby Pokemon wanted to play with the egg.

Brown eyes looked around the room warily, it was clear to everyone that the small Pokemon was shy and didn't like being around so many people. Charmander began wiggling and Micaela put Charmander down on to the floor, after a few seconds Charmander walked over to Squirtle and held it's claw out.

"Charrrr." "Hello."

The Squirtle jumped and then looked for somewhere to hide, Micaela his her smile behind the egg as she watched the Squirtle hide behind her brother who was kneeling on the floor with his egg. The Squirtle stayed hidden behind Henry as he looked at the very curious Charmander.

"Charrr, Char, Char, Charmander?" "Not going to hurt you, just want to play! Will you play with me?"

Squirtle poked it's head from around Henry's side as it looked at the Charmander that was staring at it intently, it was clear that the Charmander wanted an answer. Oak cleared his throat and broke the staring contest between the two of them, Henry stood up and made sure that he was still within a few feet of Squirtle as the Pokemon seemed to be clinging to him.

"Now then, here are you six pokeballs and your Pokedex. Why don't you scan the two of them?"

Micaela opened up her Pokedex and looked at Charmander, a mechanical female voice came from the speaker.

"Charmander, the lizard Pokemon"

Michaela looked at the Pokemon as she frowned, she already knew that much. She looked back at Charmander again and the voice continued.

"Obviously prefers hot places. When it rains, steam is said to spout from the tip of its tail, The flame on its tail shows the strength of its life force. If it is weak, the flame also burns weakly. Also the flame that burns at the tip of its tail is an indication of its emotions. The flame wavers when Charmander is enjoying itself. If the Pokémon becomes enraged, the flame burns fiercely."

That was a lot more helpful than just it's name, but why was there such a big pause in-between it's name and the information? Oak gave a smile before he asked.

"What gender is Charmander?"

Michaela looked back at the Pokedex as it answered.

"Male."

Well that helped a lot more as well, as she could no longer all Charmander it. Although she wondered if all starter Pokemon were male, or maybe it had something to do with the eggs? Maybe if they were below a certain temperature then they were male and above it they were female? Or maybe the females were rare than the males, it was something that Micaela wanted to look at, how did different genders react to things and were females rare than males?

Henry looked at his Pokedex before he looked at Squirtle, he waited for the Pokedex lid to move, a mechanical male voice came out of the Pokedex as it began analysing Squirtle.

"Squirtle, the tiny turtle Pokemon."

Henry raised his eyebrows as he looked at Squirtle, well that was kind of obvious as there was a shell on it's back, before he could make some kind of snaky remark the Pokedex continued.

"After birth, its back swells and hardens into a shell. Powerful sprays foam from its mouth. Also the shell is soft when it is born. It soon becomes so resilient, prodding fingers will bounce off it. Squirtle's shell is not merely used for protection. The shell's rounded shape and the grooves on its surface help minimize resistance in water, enabling this Pokémon to swim at high speeds."

Henry nodded his head as he thought over the information he had just got, while it wasn't a lot it gave him some idea of what to do and what not to do. He looked at his Pokedex before asking.

"What gender is Squirtle?"

The Pokedex bleeped for a few moments before the voice came back.

"Female."

Henry gaped for a few moments as he tried to wrap his head around the fact that it was a female, although it might explain the overly shy nature of the Pokemon, not that he was going to say anything with Micaela in the area he rather liked living. Oak smiled at the two before he gave them some pokeballs.

"These six pokeballs should help you, although you will be able to buy different ones and in some regions you can even make pokeballs."

Micaela took her six pokeballs before giving the other six to Henry who took them with a small frown, and Micaela knew why. Who would want to be cooped up in a small space? They wouldn't do it to a human so why was it fair to do it to a Pokemon? But then again pokeballs were mainly used for transportation, however that didn't mean that they had to like the whole idea of pokeballs even though they had grown up learning about them.

"Professor can you take a look at our eggs please?"

Micaela passed Oak her egg first and the professor began looking over the eggs and scanning it.

"Well it certainly seems to be in very good shape! At this rate it should hatch sometime soon."

Micaela gave a happy smile as Oak handed her egg back to her, Charmander quickly began pulling at her trouser leg as he demanded to come up.

"Char!" "Up!"

Micaela rolled her eyes and she looked at her brother, a small smile played on her lips as her eyes twinkled with mischief.

"Reminds me of you."

Henry huffed as Oak looked over his egg, however the professor frowned as he continued to scan the egg.

"Is everything alright?"

Oak looked at the teen that was stood before him, his was biting his bottom lip so hard that he was drawing blood, Squirtle was clinging to his leg as he looked straight at the Pokemon professor.

"With how long the egg was left unattended I am surprised that it didn't die, as it stands the Pokemon that will hatch from it will be weak and most likely prone to illness."

He wished that he had good news for the teen, it was clear that he loved the egg and it was clear that he had been looking after the egg to the best of his abilities but sadly this was part of life and with how long the little one had been left alone Oak was very shocked that it hadn't died sooner.

"Is there anything that can be done?"

Oak shook his head and gave the teen a small smile, his eyes were filled with sadness and understanding. It was always hard for a trainer to lose a Pokemon be they egg or not.

"I am afraid not lad, all I can say is you keep doing what you have been and hope for the best."

Henry nodded his head and gently took the egg with slightly shaking hands, however before either Micaela or Oak could say anything he had ran out of the Pokemon lab. Micaela watched him leave with sad eyes, she knew how hard it was for him and she knew that she would do the same thing if she had just been told that, still there was some hope and she hoped that he would be able to find it.

"Don't worry professor, if his Pokemon are anything like him they will be strong."

Oak looked at Micaela and tried to smile, but found it hard to do so. After all he had just nearly crushed Henry's dreams and it wasn't his dreams of becoming a Pokemon master or anything like that, it was his dream of hatching his first ever egg successfully. Something that looked near impossible.

"I hope so, Micaela. I really do hope so."

~~~ Henry ~~~~

He hadn't though about anything when he had ran, all he could hear in his mind was those words going around and around in his head.

I am surprised that it didn't die.

He came next to a river and stopped, his hands were shaking as he looked at the egg that was still next to him. He couldn't blame the little one, it was innocent in all of this he could however blame the people that had chased it's mother and father away from the nest, they had no right!

"It's okay, I have got you little one."

He gently rubbed the egg and felt something tug at his shirt sleeve, he looked at curious brown eyes and felt some of his worry melt away.

"Worried about me as well?"

The Squirtle nodded her head, there was a seriousness about her as she looked at the egg.

"Squi, squir. Squirtle!" "Don't worry everything will be alright, you will see!"

Henry chuckled and picked her up before placing her on his lap and gently stroking her head, his eyes looked out at the river. He smiled as he saw all of the Pokemon swimming and having fun, while he was sad that his little one might not be able to do that he would be happy if the egg hatched, if his little one could do that then there was hope.

"Help me!"

Henry jerked and looked over to the river his eyes widened as he saw a Feebas in the water, he could see that it was injured and that was the reason as to why it wasn't swimming.

"Why is a Feebas here? They live in the Hoenn region."

"Help me, please!"

Before they had anytime to think Squirtle jumped into the river and began swimming towards the injured Feebas, Henry watched as his Squirtle continued swimming towards the Feebas. Although you could find some Kanto Pokemon in Hoenn it wasn't like you could easily catch a Feebas, and most people didn't bother to catch one because of how the looked. But what most people tended to forget was Feebas evolved like many other Pokemon, Henry bit his lip as he waited for the two of them at the edge of the river.

"Don't you do that again!"

The small Squirtle looked unashamed as she looked at the Feebas, then back to Henry.

"Squir?" "Why?"

Henry sighed and quickly grabbed hold of Squirtle before pulling her into a hug, his hands quickly began running all over her, Squirtle huffed but let him check her over. Red eyes moved to the injured Feebas as he began rooting around in his bag for anything that he could use, he pulled out a small glass jar and opened it. He watched as both Feebas and Squirtle perked up at the smell, his lips quirked into a smile as he dipped his finger into the blue goop.

"Here try and eat this."

The Feebas struggled to move and Henry frowned even more, just what had happened to it? It was very clear that whatever had happened had badly injured it and the fact that it was a Hoenn Pokemon in the middle of a Kanto river didn't bode good news at all. Henry picked up the injured Feebas and began feeding it the blue goop making sure that the Feebas was eating all of it.

"Feeling better?"

Before Feebas could even say anything Henry had to snatch the glass jar away from the Squirtle that had began to eat the blue goop inside, Henry gave a put on sigh as he looked at his guilty Pokemon.

"I take it you like the Oran berry jam then?"

Squirtle nodded her head and a big smile was on her face as she looked at her trainer, Henry laughed as he began cleaning her up.

"Some how I get the feeling that you are my sister in Pokemon form."

The Squirtle just smiled at him and he shook his head, he looked at the Feebas and wondered why it was so far away from the Hoenn region, it just didn't make any sense!

"You're a long way from home little one."

The Feebas looked at him with sad eyes.

"Fee, Feeba, Feebas." "My trainer didn't want me any more because I haven't evolved yet."

Henry shook his head in disgust as he picked up the Feebas, he watched as Squirtle picked up the egg and held it firmly in her paws.

"Lets go back to professor Oak he might know what to do."

With both the Feebas and egg secure the four of them began making their way back to Pallet town, the four of them made quick work of the short journey. When they got to the town Henry smiled as he saw Micaela waiting for them.

"Henry…What is going on?"

Henry moved the Feebas slightly before looking at his sister, his eyes were hard and he shook his head.

"Someone thought it would be a good idea to catch a Feebas then release it when it didn't evolve not caring about the state of their Pokemon before releasing it."

Micaela scowled and she looked over the Feebas, she could easily see what her brother meant. Who ever had had it before Henry had found him or her, Feebas was clearly in bad shape.

"I take it you are going to see professor Oak then?"

Henry nodded his head and Micaela smiled before she began walking with her brother, she looked at the egg that Squirtle was holding and wondered just how the small female was able to get the egg off her brother, if he was protective before she dreaded to think what he would be like now. Micaela held her egg tightly in her arms as she walked next to her brother.

"Have you given some thought into what type of battle you will do?"

Henry nodded his head as they approached the Pokemon lab, he glanced down at Squirtle who was calmly carrying the egg.

"Yeah, I think I might enter into doubles. That is if you want to."

Micaela smiled and nodded her head.

"I was going to suggest that as well, I mean neither of us really know how to battle by ourselves and we have always had someone else there with us. Normally it's you for me and me for you."

Henry gave a grin as he looked at his sister, he knew what she meant. They had done nearly everything together and he had hoped that they would do battling together as well and he had been glad when she had agreed to it, although doubles would be harder than singles they both knew that it would be worth it. Hopefully. The two of them pushed open the door and jumped slightly when they heard a throat being cleared, the two of them whirled around and looked at the professor who was standing behind them.

"I take it everything is alright now?"

The two of them nodded and Henry slightly moved the Feebas in his arms.

"Oh? A Feebas in this region?"

Henry stiffly nodded his head.

"Me and Lucy found this Feebas floating down the river. From what we were able to gather it's trainer didn't want it any more as it showed signs of battle before we were able to patch it up."

Oak's eyes became slightly darker as he took the Feebas off Henry, the Feebas moved slightly but they all heard the pained whine that came from it. This time it wasn't just Henry whose eyes darkened, the newly named Lucy gave a growl which sounded far deeper than what it should have been considering she was a female. Charmander's flame on the end of it's tail began to flicker at a dangerous rate, Micaela scowled and clenched her fists.

"Lets see if we can get you fixed up."

With that Oak turned around and began grabbing potions as he went about healing the injured Feebas, however it quickly became apparent that there was far more injuries than what they had first thought. Charmander had wandered over to where Squirtle was still stood with the egg, she growled lightly at him and he held his paws up in defence.

"Charrrr, Charm, Charmander!" "Hey, easy just seeing if you needed any help!"

Squirtle stopped growling and gave the male Charmander a wary look, it was very clear that she didn't trust the other Pokemon with the care of the egg. Micaela started laughing as she looked at what the two of them were doing, it looked like her brother picked a mother hen for a Pokemon, although she had the feeling that the Squirtle was like her.

"So why the name Lucy?"

Henry looked up from his bag, when had he grabbed that? Although they were both prepared for nearly every situation Micaela couldn't remember seeing him grab his bag, not then again they were both excited to get their first Pokemon not counting their eggs.

"it just feels right you know?"

Micaela rolled her eyes before looking back at her Charmander that seemed to be trying to take the egg off Lucy, either that or he was flirting with her. While she may not know much about breeding she knew that both fire and water types didn't really get along well, or maybe it was the way that their trainers raised them? Either way Micaela knew that she would have to keep an eye on her Charmander.

"Scorch get over here and leave Lucy alone!"

The newly name Scorch gave her a wounded look as he slowly made his way over to Micaela, he looked every inch of a defeated love sick male, the brother and sister duo struggled not to laugh. Oak watched the four of them interact, he knew that they were physic after all he was friends with their grandfather and had been friends with Richard for almost 40 years. Even though it had took him ten years for Richard to tell him that he was a physic he wouldn't have it any other way, even though sometimes the man could be a hard arse but then again their family had been kicked out of many towns for being physic and it was a very closely guarded secret. It was no shock that they wouldn't tell him about their powers, but then again they had no idea that he already knew about their powers.

While they may look slightly different he could tell that they were similar to their grandfather, respecting all life even those that shouldn't be respected. Oak knew that there were people who would abuse and use Pokemon, he knew that not everyone treated Pokemon right but looking at Micaela and Henry he knew that no matter what would happen they would still treat their Pokemon with love and respect, something that warmed his heart.

"It looks like Feebas is all healed up."

Their shoulders slumped with relief as he gave them the good news, well it wasn't so much as good new but rather information. He knew that they were worried they didn't have to say anything but it was clear as day to him, after all they used the same masks that their grandfather used so it was no shock that he could read them so easily. Even though Richard had spent far longer perfecting his mask, Samuel Oak was still able to see the real man behind the mask, was still able to see the worry and anger that he kept hidden from everyone else.

"That's good news professor."

Oak gave the two of them a smile and chuckled as he watched both Charmander and Squirtle move to the newly healed Feebas who was warily looking at them. It was clear that while the Feebas knew Squirtle and trusted her somewhat it was still wary of Charmander despite the fact that the small Pokemon just wanted to play with it, he watched as Lucy growled at Charmander every time he got a little too close to the egg and it wasn't as if he could blame her.

He was very surprised that the egg had been able to survive for this long, he had no idea just why the nest had been abandoned and he knew he wouldn't like the answer, but like with all bad things in the world there was some good and he was looking at two of the most purest people that he had ever seen. He knew that the two of them would go far and he knew that no matter what was thrown their way they would overcome it, Oak continued to watch them and he knew that everything would be alright.

"What will happen to Feebas now?"

Oak looked at the Feebas who was trying to get away from Scorch as he tried to pick up the Feebas and give it a piggy back around the room, Squirtle was glowering at the small fire Pokemon as he nearly walked into her egg a few times, although it wasn't really her egg but rather Henry's that didn't mean that she wasn't going to look after it as if it was her own.

"Well it depends if anyone will take him or her, if not then we may release him or her back into the wild."

Micaela frowned and looked at her brother who was happily playing with Lucy, Micaela knew that the Feebas would most likely go back into the wild and end up getting caught again and while it might end up with a better trainer than the last one there was no telling how many times it would go through the whole getting caught then released again routine. It would be cruel to do that to a Pokemon and not only that it would end up hating humans and should the Feebas evolve he or she might go out of his or her way to attack humans. Micaela could see the problem and she knew that they could prevent the problem before it got that far, she turned to Oak and grinned.

"Hey professor what do you think of this?"

Oak walked closer to her and Micaela began whispering her plan into his ear, by the time she was finished the two of them were smiling happily.

"That might just work."

Soon it was time for the two of them to head back to their home, and while they were sad to go they had made some new friends as well. Henry pulled out a glass jar and handed it to Oak.

"Oran berry jam, it should help for any fights that the Pokemon get into, just don't give them too much."

Oak laughed and waved as he watched them disappear from his line of sight, he looked at the glass jar and smiled.

"Those two will go far, of that I am sure."

Oak turned around and went back into his Pokemon lab, only to be swarmed by Pokemon that were all after the Oran berry jam.

~~~~Micaela and Henry ~~~~

The two of them were making their way back to their home, and while it was sunny and a warm day their eggs were still wrapped up in blankets, even though the blankets didn't make that much of a difference it still kept them from getting too cold. Scorch and Lucy were walking beside their trainers the two baby Pokemon were looking at everything with awe, it was clear that hey hadn't spent much time outside.

But that wasn't so shocking because the two of them were still baby Pokemon then their immune system wouldn't have been fully developed, which meant that they would of stayed inside until they were able to go outside, and it looked like they were enjoying every moment of it. Micaela smiled as she watched Scorch look at a tree with awe and wonder. While it made her sad that he had spent so much time inside she was happy that he was able to see everything with her.

"Scorch looks happy."

Micaela nodded her head, and gave a small laugh when she watched Scorch prod a bush that was next to the tree.

"He is, but it's sad that he has spent so much time inside."

Scorch prodded Lucy on the head and then ran away, leaving a fuming Lucy behind him. Lucy gave a small war cry before she chased after him. The two trainers watched as their Pokemon chased each other around, Scorch was teasing Lucy and Lucy kept rising to the bait. Micaela shook her head and she continued walking, she turned around and looked at her brother who was laughing at the two Pokemon.

"Coming?"

With that Micaela turned around and continued walking to Katli town, she heard the sound of footsteps and resisted the urge to smile. While she did smile, she knew that they wouldn't take to kindly to her smiling at the fact that she was going to leave them. Not that she really would, she knew there would be a time when they wouldn't be together anymore and she knew that each person led a different life and no two people were the same just like Pokemon. You could be the same species but never the same, still she was going to enjoy this for as long as she was able to do so.

Lucy rolled her brown eyes at her trainer, honestly couldn't he see that his sister was joking? She wasn't really going to leave him behind although she did have to admit that the look on Scorch's face was very funny and she wished that she could see it again, she looked at the egg that her trainer was carrying and could feel the life inside the gg, she knew that it was still alive. In what state she couldn't say but Lucy knew that the Pokemon inside of the egg was still alive and if she had her way it would continue to stay that way.

Scorch ran beside his trainer, he had such a lovely trainer and wondered why couldn't more trainers be like Micaela? She was kind, sweet, funny and loving. He wouldn't have picked her if she wasn't a good trainer, she reminded him of his own mother. Or what he could vaguely remember, what most humans didn't know was there was a bond between mother and egg, it was how the females of their race were able to tell whose egg belonged to who. While it wasn't uncommon for them to adopt eggs that had been left there wasn't the same bond that a nest mother and her egg had, Scorch knew that when Micaela had her own eggs she would be a wonderful nest mother. But for now? Well he was going to be the best big brother that anyone had ever seen, that and annoy Lucy, she was so easy to rile up.

They arrived at the town in a very short amount of time, considering it took them nearly an hour to get to Pallet town and considering the towns were next to each other?

Well it was safe to say that they had taken the long way to Pallet town, not that any of them had really minded. However they were eager to begin their journey, to go out into the world and see what it had to offer them. Micaela and Henry perked up when they saw their grandfather stood in the garden a soft smile on his normally stern face.

"I see the two of you got your Pokemon then."

Micaela nodded her head and placed her hand on Scorch's head.

"Yep, this is Scorch."

Luna, their grandfather's Ninetails came out of the house and looked at the two new Pokemon, she gave each of them a sniff before she sneezed and shook her head. Luna walked back to Richard and sat down next to his legs while staring at the new Pokemon, Henry chuckled and looked at Lucy.

"This little lady is Lucy."

Luna turned her nose up at Lucy and Lucy began glowering at the fire Pokemon, it would have been scary if it had been on any other Pokemon, but as it was it looked like a soaking wet Eevee trying to dry off, either that or Lucy had been electrocuted by a Pikachu. Richard chuckled at Luna's antics before he looked at his grandchildren, to him it seemed like only yesterday that he was teaching them how to walk and talk after their parents had left them.

Oh he had told them that they went missing on a cruise but that wasn't the truth, no the truth was that their father had left their mother and she had turned to drink because she couldn't cope with the two of them. One week later she had dumped them on his doorstep and he hadn't heard from her again, even though she had been his daughter he despised her actions. The twins had never been to blame, they couldn't even remember their father, so why had she blamed them?

But that hadn't changed the fact that he had been left to raise two, two year olds. Of course the townspeople had tried to help him and they had managed but Henry had been such a quiet child and it was clear that he didn't like people, Richard was never really sure but he had the feeling that something had been done to him. Nearly every toddler he had met, had been loud noisy and full of life, Micaela had tried to drag her brother into games. But more often than not she played with the other children by herself, but Richard knew that if saw either his daughter or son in law again he would show just why he was a master at physic powers. But the thing he remembered the most was the joy that he felt, when they told him that they loved him, would he read them a bedtime story. Would he teach them about Pokemon and the different types, it may have taken him years to draw Henry out of his shell and it may have taken him even longer to get Micaela to stop breaking people's noses every time they said one bad word about her brother. But it had been worth it.

Every smile, every tear, every story that he had ever told them he would treasure. He knew that he couldn't stop them from going on this journey, he knew that no matter what he did they would still love him and at the end of the day they would come back to him because he was their family, so yes while he was sad to see them leave he knew that they would be back. Richard jumped as two sets of arms wrapped around him, he looked into red and violet eyes as they looked at him knowingly.

"You know we will be back, your our family and nothing will change that."

Henry nodded his head and looked at the man that had raised him, that had kissed each and every one of their cuts, bruises and patched them up when a kiss wouldn't fix it.

"Besides we won't be leaving until tomorrow, it's too late to set off now."

Richard gave a hearty laugh as he looked at the two of them, the world had better watch out because they would take it by storm, and he was going to watch and laugh as they did so.

"Why don't we get your stuff packed now and we can all have one last family meal together?"

The two of them nodded their heads while Luna glared at the younger Pokemon, she understood that they were her pups Pokemon, she wasn't blind but they would learn their place. After all Richard was the alpha and it was her duty as the alpha female to make sure that there would be no harm coming to her cubs, with a final growl Luna turned around and walked into the hose, she gave a brief huff of happiness as she heard the three of them laughing.

Scorch and Lucy looked at how happy they were and they knew that then and there they would do anything to see their trainers this happy all the time, after all they were their trainers.
