A Friendship is born.

Hello everyone. Before I would always submit pokemon characters to other authors. It was recently when one author, Puttylol, had suggested I do a story about them. So I planned to make a story that is about them. I hope you guys enjoy. I don't own pokemon, only my OC.

War. Such a small word but can have such disastrous effect on all of us. It takes lives, ravages the land, never showing mercy. In the beginning, there were seventeen different pokemon, each unique in there own way. The seventeen pokemon had travelled far together, worked together, lived together, they were a family. But all great things do not last. Because of a mistake one of the seventeen had made, that family was broken. Trust and love was soon replaced with hate and lies. The seventeen pokemon soon went on their seperate ways. Soon seventeen different clans were made and the land was split into seventeen different parts. The different clans had left each other alone, and for a time peace had began to return. Each pokemon of the different clans began to live in harmony, and the land was once again prosperous. But it was not to last. For as peace grew, so did the desire for power. Soon the seventeen clans went to war. Friend against friend, brother against brother. It was utter chaos, and many did not survive. What was days turned to months, which turned to years. No clan could gain the advantage, it was a never ending war. The clans finally had enough, they had decided to have a final battle, one that would change the world as we know it. But then the most unusual of all things happened. The seventeen original pokemon had banded together to stop this senseless fighting, which had cost them their lives. Their sacrifice had finally open the eyes of the seventeen different clans. They truly understood the wrong that they did. Soon peace had return. A leader for each clan was chosen so that they may work together, just as the original seventeen had done. To this day the original seventeen pokemon are considered heroes and the land has been at peace since then. But will it last forever? Or is it the calm before the storm. For there are those who are always watching, waiting to light the spark and start war once again, and they will do anything to achieve it. This is where the tale of our young hero to be begins. Many trials awaits this one, and each one will push him to his limits. He will need trust, faith, and courage if he is to survive this coming storm.

We see a market place, full of many different water type pokemon going around and purchasing what they need. All was going well until,

"STOP THEIF", an angry looking Samurott shouts. He was currently chasing a charmeleon who was carrying two apples and a small water pouch.

"I'm really sorry, I promise I'll pay you when I can!" said the Charmeleon, truly thinking; "Why are they freaking out, it's only two apples and a water pouch" On closer looks, this charmeleon was also wearing a flame pendant and had a huge x-shape scar on his chest.

On the other side of the market, a Marill is walking along, oblivious to what's happening around her.

"How about taking down that outlaw... No. Or how about the rumored gang of pokemon.

She fails to notice the charmeleon that is runing from a group of pokemon heading towards her.

"I got it, I'll go and challenge a legendary to a battle, now I just need to find one-"

"LOOK OUT"

The charmeleon collides with the marill, and the other pokemon finally catch up to him

The samurott from earlier exclaims "So the thief had a partner, well you two are under arrest!"

The Marill starts freaking out and shouts, "What the, I didn't do anything!"

"Save it, your lies won't get you out of this."

The samurott was about to attack when suddenly, "FLAMETHOWER", a wall of flames is made between the two pokemon. The charmeleon then grabs the marill's tail and starts running.

"Hey, What are you doing?"

"Sorry, but no time to explain"

Eventually the duo make it into the forest. Marill suddenly uses aqua tail on the charmeleons head, "Ow, what was that for?!"

"That was for dragging me by the tail and getting me in trouble. Now would you mind telling me why a charmeleon like yourself is doing in the land of the water clan? You don't look like a trader. Are you a spy, planning on bringing the destruction of our clan?! Maybe a outlaw? Tell me now!"

"Well I'm just traveling around, looking for something." The charmeleon said sheepishly

"We'll for a traveler, you don't have a lot of supplies."

"I was planning to until that little mishap happened?"

"Care to explain?"

"You see, I was looking through there products when I noticed two young squirtles looking kinda hungry. So I grab four apples, and gave them two. I was about to pay, but I guess that samurott got the wrong idea. I tried explaining it to him but he wouldn't listen. He accused me of stealing and was gonna have me arrested, so I just ran. That's when I bumped into you and now we're here."

"A very likely story, but I'm still keeping my eye on you."

"Fine by me, by the way, I'm Al."

"Al? That's a weird name. Is it short for Alexander, or how about Allen, or-"

"It's short for Allistar. So what's yours?" He states.

"The name's April, and one day everyone will remember my name!"

"That's a interesting goal. Hey by any chance do you know what this is?"

Al holds up his flame pendant and shows it to April. She looks at it for awhile but she shrugs, saying, "Sorry, I have no idea."

Al looks a little disappointed but soon replaces it with a smile. "Oh well. I better be going."

He starts to leave but April then rushes next to him

"Hold on, I'm coming with you!"

Al is surprise by this, "Why do you want to come?"

"I can't exactly go back there, not with everyone thinking I'm a thief. Plus, for all I know, you can be a assassin. Someone has to keep an eye on you."

Al started laughing,"Fine by me, I always enjoy a good company."The duo begin to travel, and an unlikely friendship was born.

And done, hope you guys like it. I redid this chapter and want to say thanks to ThePokemonNerdOriginal and Puttylol for helping me fix my mistakes. By the way, April is not my character, she belongs to Puttylol.
