A Pokemon Fairy Tale
(Okay, l know how bad my English is so you don't have to tell me
about it. This fanfic is sort of like a fairy tale, and l hope you like
it!)
Ch.1
A long time ago, in the kingdom of Cerulean, the
Waterflower family decided to move into another kingdom further
south, Kingdom of Pallet. Little Misty, who was only 8 years old
by that time, was so excited about it. Pallet kingdom was a
beautiful place, with its small town close to the ocean. Misty
adored the ocean, and loved water Pokemon. Her whole family,
including her parents, her 3 older sisters Violet, Lily and Daisy all
trained water Pokemon. Later when Misty is 12, she can receive
her first Pokemon.
"Let's go daddy!" Misty said happily as her father giggled.
Her mother who is a true beauty and a brunette laughed. They are
sure happy. Although Misty and her sisters always get into
arguments and fights, they are still a happy family.
And so the Waterflowers moved to the Kingdom of Pallet
through the Viridian District. They didn't want to even get close to
the Viridian area but they must. If they go the long way around it
would take 3 weeks longer.
When the family arrived at the Viridian District, Misty's
mother said.
"Lily, Violet, Daisy and Misty, you all must be quiet and
don't cry if you're afraid,"
Viridian District was used to be another beautiful nation, but
when a raid of a large gang of thieves and assassins the nation is
destroyed, and the gang of criminals lived in that area and formed
an organization called "Team Rocket."
Misty was scared at the awful scene. A ruin of houses
everywhere. There were some people who didn't look nice
everywhere, and the plants around this area all died and became
yellow. The floor wasn't like the ones before, covered with stone
but only a faint dirt road. The sky was covered with black mist and
smoke of all those thieves' hideouts.
Misty grabbed her mother's dress tight, afraid of those
people. Her father seemed to be bold but she could feel that her
father was scared too. Not scare for life, but feared the safety of his
family. Misty's 3 older sisters held hands tight with each other.
Even if they were older, they were also scared. If anyone sees this
scene of Viridian, they will think that hell will be something
similar. This place isn't fit for any living things to live.
"Hey you guys!" said a man with a knife in his hand. "Hand
over all of your money!"
"Sir, we aren't that rich so," protested Misty's father but then
the robber held his knife to his throat. Misty's father got out some
money from his pocket.
"Is that all you have?" asked the robber again.
"Yes, that's all we have," lied Misty's mother. Misty hugged
her mom, scared. Then her mother whispered to her 4 daughters.
"Run if l tell you guys to," she whispered quietly.
"Mother…" said Violet as she held Misty's hand.
"Well that lady there," the robber pointed to Misty's mother.
"She's beautiful! I'll take her along and you can keep the cash!"
The robber forced to take Misty's mother but then Misty protested.
"Don't take my mom! Please?" she begged as her aqua eyes
sparkled innocently, a heart of pureness, a heart filled with joy.
Inside this little girl was filled with hope, and she prayed that the
robber would let her mother go.
"Well… alright! But l'll keep the cash!" The robber snatched
the money and left. He threw her mother to the ground and quickly
escaped.
"Thanks Misty," said her mother as the family moved out of
the Viridian District and into the Pallet Kingdom.
10 years later, Misty was walking along the street, thinking
of ways to earn some quick money. 4 years ago her mother died
from an unknown disease, and drove her father to gambling. Her
father was losing money ever since, and now she must think of
some ways to earn money fast. Her sisters all found some jobs, but
still hadn't learn enough money. 10 years ago, Pallet was like a
wonderland. Famous for its beautiful buildings along the coastline,
this nation was said to be one of the richest country in the world.
Misty was walking bare footed in a beach. Her Pokemon
Starmie was swimming along the coast. Misty kicked the sand,
couldn't think of a solution to her problem. She is still sad about
her mother's departure, but her dad crossed the line. Before he was
a responsible, good father, handsome looking too! But now he was
just a loser, always lying on the bed, and gambled whenever he had
the money to. She and her siblings did all the work in the family.
Now they must earn some quick money to pay for their father.
"Oh Starmie, what can l do?"
Her Starmie swam closer to the shore, and stood by her side.
Misty sobbed as she rested her head on Starmie. Her waist length
red hair made her also a beauty, but she worked day and night,
trying to earn the money for her dad, and longer took cared of her
appearance, and so her hair was a little messy.
She loved the ocean. The ocean is someone you can tell all of
your secrets to. The ocean listens to you, at least that's what she
believed. The ocean in Misty's mind is a person, not a thing, a
person who is passionate, peaceful and a true friend. Because of
this admiration of the sea, Misty also loved water Pokemon.
She returned home along the main street. But then everyone
else was only standing at the sides of the road.
"What's happening?" she asked.
"It's the prince! The prince is here!"
She looked as the ruler of the Pallet nation passed through.
He was riding on a Rapidash, with a Pikachu at his shoulder. There
were heavy guards around him, and there was a stern looking man
in front of the prince. The stern looking man was the captain of the
guards, Brock. Brock was a famous warrior all around the world.
His rock Pokemon's hardcore defense and awesome offensive
strength could knock out any Pokemon.
Then there was Prince Ketchum. A charming and handsome
prince riding on his Rapidash, dreams for all women to be married
to such a man like Prince Ketchum. His black hair wasn't short,
but a good length. His Pikachu was so adorable, strong too. The
prince's Pikachu was the prince's favorite Pokemon and also his
bodyguard. Pikachu was like no other Pokemon. He was a
Pokemon that had characteristics of a human. Some special
Pokemon owned by a special master.
The crowd started to push, trying to get a better look at the
prince.
"Hey watch it!" said Misty but then the crowd pushed her
and she lost her balance. She fell on to the road in front of the
prince's path.
"Hey you! How dare you block our path! Move it! Move it!"
said Cap. Brock coldly as Misty quickly tried to get up and stunned
by Brock's warning. The guards behind then shouted at Misty. The
crowd at the side watched.
"Brock!" yelled the prince and the guards and Brock be quiet.
Then he got down from his Rapidash and walked towards Misty.
"Are you alright?" asked Prince Ketchum. Misty's heart
pounded. She did hear of nice things about the prince, such as
giving out food to the poor, visiting families and such. She just
thought that those were just things the royalty said so that the
citizens would like them. Guess Prince Ketchum was a nice guy
for real.
"Hello? Miss?" the prince asked again.
"Oh, l'm fine, Prince Ketchum," replied Misty politely. She
got up and walked back into the crowd. Then the royalty continued
their way to the palace.
Misty walked back into the poorer area of the city. This area
the city wasn't even close to as nice as those on the main street.
Instead of having white painted (paint is something valuable
during that time) houses and windows (glass also is expensive),
houses in here were made of poor quality bricks, no glass or any
paint on the wall. She entered her house from the broken door and
her dad was lying on the bed, staring at the roof again.
"Dad, you must get over this, mom will be sad to see you like
this,"
"She'll never see me again…"
"She is watching over us in heaven, l'm sure!"
"No. She is dead Misty. Someday you will understand, the
pain of losing your true love is terrible…"
"Yes, but as people say, time is the best medicine for
everything,"
"Not for me…"
"Queen Ketchum once lost her husband, but she is doing fine
now,"
"Whatever…"
Misty sighed and lit the room up more using another candle.
The condition of the house wasn't very good. There were only
enough room for placing 2 bunk beds, a table and several chairs
and there was another door, leading to the washroom. The room
was only lit up by one candle every night to save money, but Misty
sometimes lit up 2.
Then someone entered the house.
"Hi Misty," said Violet and Daisy as they entered the house.
Misty lightly smiled and she grabbed the broom to sweep the floor.
Violet just went to her bed immediately to rest, and Daisy sat on
one of the wooden chairs around the table.
"Tired from working?" asked Misty. Daisy nodded and
Violet already fell to sleep.
"Who's cooking tonight?" asked Misty as Daisy drank some
water.
"Lily. She's in the market right now,"
"I'll do it. You are all tired from working, l bet. Let me do
the cooking. I'm the only one of us who doesn't have a job yet,"
said Misty as she continued to sweep the floor.
"No, little sis, we can handle it,"
"Don't treat me like l'm a 4 year old!"
An uncomfortable silence broke in. Daisy said nothing. All
she wanted was for Misty not to worry about it, so she never asked
Misty to worry about it.
The next morning, after all of Misty's sisters were off to
work again, Misty went to the beach again. She sat in her usual
spot, watching her Pokemon swimming around. A group of women
then walked by. They talked so loud, that Misty just couldn't help
to overhear their conversations.
"You know what, the palace is hiring servants again!"
"What! You should've told me sooner. They say that even
servants in the palace is treated not that bad, at least a bed to sleep
and the palace takes care of your food too!"
"You can get paid well also!"
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's register at the palace!"
The 3 women ran off.
Misty thought to herself. It sounded like a gold mine! Then
she quickly returned her Pokemon into the Pokeballs and ran off to
the palace.
When she arrived at the palace, she was surprised to see so
many other people lining up to be servants and housekeepers. The
palace was huge, and it's by the ocean. The white building
sparkled against the bright sun. There was a iron gate, and all
women who were willing to be servants and housekeepers of the
palace were to wait patiently in front of the gate. Misty quickly
lined up.
"Next person!" A red haired woman called. She was the head
of the servants and housekeeping department. It's not really a
department, but that's what all common folks called. The woman's
hair was weird. It was a hairstyle that Misty had never seen before.
Then she stepped up and sat on the chair.
The woman sat at the other end of the small table, and
introduced herself. Her name was Jessie, and she taught all the
servants and housekeepers.
"What's your name young lady?" Jessie asked.
"Misty Waterflower,"
"Age?"
"18,"
"Wow, that's young. Why do you want this job? Especially
when you're so young, most youngster go to have some fun when
they're your age,"
"Some family problems…"
"I'm sorry,"
"That's okay,"
This Jessie seemed quite nice to Misty, unlike what the other
people commented. Others said that Jessie was a mean old, nasty
woman. She seemed nice, gentle and caring.
"Okay, Ms. Waterflower, can you start your work
tomorrow?"
"Yes! Sure!"
"Okay, go back home and tell your family that. By 7 next
morning l'll be waiting for you,"
Misty joyfully left the palace and back home. She finally got
a job and within a short time she and her sisters could pay for her
father and they will be happy again. Tomorrow would be a new
day!
"What! You've got a job in the palace?" asked Lily
excitingly as Misty's sister surrounded her, asking her stuff and all
seemed to be excited. Misty was also excited, that her sisters were
no longer treating her like a baby. Misty's family then enjoyed a
happy dinner (excluding their father).
The next day, Misty was already and she walked to the
palace for her first day of work.

Her mother who is a true beauty and a brunette laughed. They are

And so the Waterflowers moved to the Kingdom of Pallet
through the Viridian District. They didn't want to even get close to
the Viridian area but they must. If they go the long way around it
would take 3 weeks longer.
When the family arrived at the Viridian District, Misty's

"Hey you guys!" said a man with a knife in his hand. "Hand

"Sir, we aren't that rich so," protested Misty's father but then
the robber held his knife to his throat. Misty's father got out some

"Is that all you have?" asked the robber again.
"Yes, that's all we have," lied Misty's mother. Misty hugged

The robber forced to take Misty's mother but then Misty protested.
"Don't take my mom! Please?" she begged as her aqua eyes
sparkled innocently, a heart of pureness, a heart filled with joy.
Inside this little girl was filled with hope, and she prayed that the
robber would let her mother go.
"Well… alright! But l'll keep the cash!" The robber snatched
the money and left. He threw her mother to the ground and quickly
escaped.
"Thanks Misty," said her mother as the family moved out of
the Viridian District and into the Pallet Kingdom.
10 years later, Misty was walking along the street, thinking
of ways to earn some quick money. 4 years ago her mother died

Now they must earn some quick money to pay for their father.
"Oh Starmie, what can l do?"
Her Starmie swam closer to the shore, and stood by her side.
Misty sobbed as she rested her head on Starmie. Her waist length
red hair made her also a beauty, but she worked day and night,
trying to earn the money for her dad, and longer took cared of her

She loved the ocean. The ocean is someone you can tell all of

She returned home along the main street. But then everyone

"What's happening?" she asked.
"It's the prince! The prince is here!"
She looked as the ruler of the Pallet nation passed through.
He was riding on a Rapidash, with a Pikachu at his shoulder. There
were heavy guards around him, and there was a stern looking man

The crowd started to push, trying to get a better look at the

prince's path.
"Hey you! How dare you block our path! Move it! Move it!"
said Cap. Brock coldly as Misty quickly tried to get up and stunned
by Brock's warning. The guards behind then shouted at Misty. The
crowd at the side watched.
"Brock!" yelled the prince and the guards and Brock be quiet.
Then he got down from his Rapidash and walked towards Misty.
"Are you alright?" asked Prince Ketchum. Misty's heart
pounded. She did hear of nice things about the prince, such as
giving out food to the poor, visiting families and such. She just
thought that those were just things the royalty said so that the
citizens would like them. Guess Prince Ketchum was a nice guy

"Hello? Miss?" the prince asked again.
"Oh, l'm fine, Prince Ketchum," replied Misty politely. She
got up and walked back into the crowd. Then the royalty continued
their way to the palace.
Misty walked back into the poorer area of the city. This area
the city wasn't even close to as nice as those on the main street.

"Queen Ketchum once lost her husband, but she is doing fine

Misty sighed and lit the room up more using another candle.

enough room for placing 2 bunk beds, a table and several chairs

Then someone entered the house.
"Hi Misty," said Violet and Daisy as they entered the house.
Misty lightly smiled and she grabbed the broom to sweep the floor.
Violet just went to her bed immediately to rest, and Daisy sat on
one of the wooden chairs around the table.
"Tired from working?" asked Misty. Daisy nodded and
Violet already fell to sleep.
"Who's cooking tonight?" asked Misty as Daisy drank some
water.
"Lily. She's in the market right now,"
"I'll do it. You are all tired from working, l bet. Let me do
the cooking. I'm the only one of us who doesn't have a job yet,"
said Misty as she continued to sweep the floor.
"No, little sis, we can handle it,"
"Don't treat me like l'm a 4 year old!"
An uncomfortable silence broke in. Daisy said nothing. All
she wanted was for Misty not to worry about it, so she never asked
Misty to worry about it.
The next morning, after all of Misty's sisters were off to
work again, Misty went to the beach again. She sat in her usual

The woman sat at the other end of the small table, and
introduced herself. Her name was Jessie, and she taught all the
servants and housekeepers.
"What's your name young lady?" Jessie asked.
"Misty Waterflower,"
"Age?"
"18,"
"Wow, that's young. Why do you want this job? Especially
when you're so young, most youngster go to have some fun when
they're your age,"
"Some family problems…"
"I'm sorry,"
"That's okay,"
This Jessie seemed quite nice to Misty, unlike what the other
people commented. Others said that Jessie was a mean old, nasty
woman. She seemed nice, gentle and caring.
"Okay, Ms. Waterflower, can you start your work
tomorrow?"
"Yes! Sure!"
"Okay, go back home and tell your family that. By 7 next
morning l'll be waiting for you,"
Misty joyfully left the palace and back home. She finally got
a job and within a short time she and her sisters could pay for her
father and they will be happy again. Tomorrow would be a new

"What! You've got a job in the palace?" asked Lily
