Hey guys It's Ice. Well here's the story that I was talking about in Mist in the Clearing. This is a story detailing the adventure of my White 2 play through, though it doesn't follow the exact story line as I changed or added somethings to make it interesting for you to read. Heh ok this is kinda embarrassing but here goes I have this dream that I would be able to meet Epifex, Nuzlock, and Ky-nim. Well at the very least it would be cool if they saw this story but uh yea this is chapter 1 (man I need to get better at this introduction thing...)
"Matt I'm back!" I hear as the door opens. I turn away from my computer screen and the video of the semi-finals at the Pokémon World Tournament in Driftveil. I head to the living room just in time to run into mom's Herdier who's also on her way to greet mom. I let her pass and continue at a walk rather than a run even though I'm excited since today's my sixteenth birthday.
"Happy birthday Matt! Sorry I'm late getting home Joy needed some extra help." She said as she set her bag on the table and bent down to per Herdier. Mom works at the pokémon center as nurse Joy's assistant, she used to travel as a pokémon trainer and helped at pokémon centers across the Unova region but then she met my dad and had me.
"It's fine, I'm used to it." I reply as I turn back toward my room. I was a bit disappointed because I was hoping that I could start my journey as a pokémon trainer early. I had been thinking about it a lot but I tried to focus on other things to distract myself such as watching videos of tournament battles hoping to learn from them so that I could become a good trainer though I didn't know what kind of Trainer I wanted to be.
"Oh! I almost forgot, Professor Juniper called." Said mom as she started walking to the back door and out into the back yard where some of the other pokémon lived.
I spun on my heels and quickly followed her eager to hear more. "What did she say?" I blurted out when I caught up to her. she was picking up a bucket of feed and started walking over to the Zebstrika that she raised. Her Petilil Hopped off of Zebstrika's head and onto mom's shoulder.
"Oh! Right well she wanted to know if you would help her with her research. So I told her I would ask you." She said hurriedly and dejectedly.
"Mom? Are you ok?" I asked in a worried tone. The sudden sadness in her expression concerned me, I had never seen that before.
"Huh oh yea… look the truth is… is that I don't want want you to become a trainer. When i was your age I was a trainer, but sixteen years ago team Plasma became big. They took your father and my pokémon. After that I gave up on being a trainer." At this point she started walking back into the house, she hadn't dismissed me so I looked at Herdier and followed her inside.
When I got inside Petilil was staring down the hall, I walked up to her and bent down. She turned to me and I held out my hand she climbed up and onto my shoulder. With Petilil and Herdier by my side I turned and looked down the hall; Mom's door stood ajar, I started down the hall and into her room I had never been in there before as she told me and my sister not to go in there.
I walked in and was taken aback by the sheer number of medals and trophies from the pokémon world tournament, in a case above the bed were eight shining badges, above it there was a frame with a ribbon attached that looked as if a picture had once sat there. Mom's back was toward me, she was facing the badges. "Mom?"
She sighed and turned toward me "We had just beat the Pokémon league, we were champions. That's when a man named N announced that he was the king of Team Plasma and they attacked the Unova region with all the pokémon that they stole. I never saw my pokémon again. A few weeks later I found out I was pregnant with you. so I came here to Aspertia city to raise you and now sixteen years later we find ourselves faced with a decision…" she turned toward the window and proceeded to stare out it.
I mumbled "I want to be a trainer." I then paused and raised my head high and spoke clearly "I want to be a trainer… no I want to be more that just a trainer, I promise that I will avenge your pokémon and I will hunt down all the Team Plasma bastards responsible."
"Matt I…" at that moment mom's Emolga flew in through the window. Mom turned towards the flying rodent as it landed on her bed. "Is she here?" She asked Emolga.
"Mol Emolga" she replied in a sassy tone as she curled up and promptly fell asleep.
"Wait is who here?" I asked confused as to whom my mother was referring I was still a bit dazed from the interruption from the conversation.
"Professor Juniper's assistant Bianca, she's here to give you and the other new trainers your starter pokemon. " At this she sighed obviously deep in the recollection of her memories of her travels as she often did. She then spoke in a broken tone "Well matt your path lies before you however its what you make of your travels that count" Mom turned to me and looked as if she was going to say more but I noticed tears starting to form in her eyes so I interrupted her.
"I'd better get going then." I turned and left the room I went straight down the hall and into my own room to grab my travel bag and other things for the road. I left as soon as I finished strapping my X-transceiver. I rushed out the door and into the street and I just ran...
