Alice's Notes.
Okay...uh...first chapter...kinda short now that I look at it but no matter! The show must go on ENJOY!
And OH GOD I make OC's pop out so very quickly!
Also I am using a new format for my stories, tell me if you like this one or if you want a different layout.
The name to this story might change, it's called that so it lines up with the sequel I have in mind...I plan ahead a little bit.
Although the name is a little depressing the story should have lots of Fluff and funny stuff to.

Chapter 1: My Normal Life.

Alice.

~I have a normal life.
My name is Alice, I am a girl, and my name is Alicia Orish Mau.
I go to high school every day, I am a normal girl without any amazing physical interests, and I have no amazing talents or adventures to go one. Normal.
Funny about that most people do have normal lives so I probably shouldn't be surprised that I do also.
Today was especially normal, I went to school today. I got there ten minutes before the bell.
After that I went to my English class, Freddy was hitting on Macie again and I don't think she liked it very much, she kept squirming. Must have been his cheesy jokes.

Lora cut her finger in cooking today, the blood was all over the table, it must have been deep. I wonder if she is alright now.
My PE teacher was looking at me funny again today; he looks funny at all the girls. He is still fairly young...a bit too young to be a paedophile but he still is.
Class 3A smelt off again today, the class before us must be rather stinky.
Camellia and her friends talked to me again today, today they used a metaphor about me, and I don't think they knew it was that though. They were just saying cruel things. They used a book to hit me today, last time it was a ruler. I like the ruler better I think.

I have to remember to finish off my maths work, I can't come home with another B or mother will be angry.
I forgot to turn off my DS today, I hope that it doesn't run out of charge before I save it. My Eevee is close to evolving so I got to save it quickly.
The buss I am on right now is really loud, people are chatting.
I think that Rose is trying to talk to me right now so I should speak to her.~

Shutting the little diary that she had she turned back to look towards her best friend that was entertained by her music on a seat behind her, the bus gave a sharp lurch of undesired motion that made Alice turn back to the front. Her fingers ran over the front of the book she had, it was worn and the pages discoloured and she loved it very much.

She never wrote long about anything, it was always just little notes that she jotted down about the world around her.
When she started that page with 'I have a normal life' she wasn't quite sure why she had started with that, it was almost as if she was complaining to her own diary that she was bored with her current situation. Opening the book back up she looked at some past pages, nothing immediately caught her attention though.

"What are you always scribbling down in there?" Asked a curious voice from over her shoulder, jumping she turned to see Rose smiling devilishly down at her, she had snuck out of her seat to look down at Alice. Closing the book with a quick snap she smiled slightly getting a pout out of Rose.
"You're not going to tell me are you?"

"Not a chance." She replied confidently getting a wail of despair from her blonde haired companion who hugged her over the seat, pressing her down into the cushioned back of the chair and drawing the attention of a grumpy bus driver that had felt with far too many children in his day.

"Why won't you tell me these things! You're so cute come on share, share!" Her train of thought just bounced about so rapidly, Alice was hard pressed to follow her but she knew she wasn't going to show her the diary.

It was almost just to annoy her friend but it was also a case of privacy so she didn't let up even as Rose began to shake her in her seat, the bus driver finally barked at her to sit back down and she was back in her seat before he had even finished shouting the order. She was an energetic little thing and she never hated anyone around them, she loved everyone and that was probably why she liked Alice at all, it was because she could actually do it unlike other people.

Alice was aware that she was an observer, she didn't have a personality that was notable and she wasn't amazing at anything, everything she did she did well but never tried harder to achieve more. Alice was content to travel through life in this state, she didn't need to be outstanding...she just had to be able to get through life.

That wasn't to say she didn't enjoy anything...Alice loved Pokémon after all. It was a childish thing to love at the age of sixteen but she couldn't draw herself away from it. Back at her home she had all the games that had come out and she had completed all of them three times or more.

The only thing she had left to do was completely the newest game she had gotten her hands on, Pokémon Black 2, she was over the moon when she discovered that they were releasing an honest to god sequel for the first time and so when she had gotten her hands on it she had buckled down and played without rest for a full three days, she even called in sick for one day of school to do it.

Thinking about getting back home and continuing to play it was enough to get her to smile, she didn't care about many things but she did adore that game. Things like social lives never called out to her and that was why she fit so well into the group of people that called themselves her friends, they were rejects for lack of a better term.

They were not bad people and Alice fit into the group easily which was good because if it had been difficult she wouldn't have bothered and she would constantly be on her own.

The phone in her pocket buzzed softly and she paused in her thoughts to look at the screen seeing a quick message from Rose.

'Thinking about getting back to your kiddy game?'

Despite herself Alice smiled, Rose was more perceptive than she let on and far less of an air head then everyone assumed. Without texting back she nodded twice and it was only a second later that the phone went off again.

'Thinking about that cutie green haired boy in it?'

She could all but hear the giggle in Rose's text, that green haired cutie as she put it was the antagonist of the pokemon game...or at least he had been...he was right...?

Surprisingly Alice couldn't remember much about his ending in the last game but his name had been Natural Harmonia Gropius...or just N for short and Alice loved him.

Okay 'love' was a strong word for it but she certainly liked his character, she had on the off occasion wondered if being a pokemon trainer was cruel...he had brought that question in her mind more strangely than ever but that was what had made her decide that she didn't think it was. The more he accused trainers of being evil the more she felt obligated to tell him he was wrong...of course she never could because..Well...

"Pokemon isn't real." She whispered out loud clutching her book to her chest for a moment as she remembered that sad fact...she was sure she could blossom in a world like that...a beautiful world where she didn't have to be around others, she could just spend time with herself and the pokemon by her side. It was so perfectly lonely and she envied that type of life.

The phone went off again and this time she didn't look at it, she instead just slipped it into her pocket hearing the angry huff from behind her, Rose wasn't mad though and they both knew it. Sighing softly she rest her chin against her palm while staring blankly out the window of the bus, fascinated by the trees that wished past the glass and past her.

~I wonder just what I should make for dinner...it has to be something simple, it's just me tonight after all.
I'm going to be alone in the house again, I suppose that is good, I can keep the lights off.~

She scribbled down some notes while looking out the window, she knew that she was just putting her thoughts down onto paper...but she liked that, she trusted the paper with her thoughts when no one else needed them. The bus was rolling to a stop to let a few people off at that point and she knew that her stop was at least ten more down the track.

~Back at home I got an Eevee waiting for me, he is the sweetest little thing...I wonder what evolution he will want.
Before I got on the bus to go home someone tried to throw my bag under the bus, lucky they were such an awful shot.

The trees are such a nice green colour aren't they...Just like that person's hair is...hair...?~

Alice jolted out of her trance like state in shock at what she had been writing and thinking she had been spacing out so much she had almost completely over looked it. The bus was still not moving but the last people were getting off of the transport and she had only just noticed the strange green hair that mixed into the grass, a figure lay on the ground a little way up the road...it moved and pulled itself up.

A person...a girl maybe? That hair was so long there was no way it wasn't a girl but Alice found herself captivated by the sight of it, green hair wasn't a common thing after all.

It was something she couldn't place for a moment but just as the bus began to roll away from its stop and the figure began to walk she caught a look at the person's eyes. Those gray hues struck a chord in her body and mind that she had been up until then ignoring...there had been no way and yet...it was impossible not to be.

As the bus moved past the figure everything slowed for just a moment...that single moment was long enough for Alice to see familiar traits that she couldn't ignore. They slid past him and she caught sight of something golden by the persons hip...they had moved past him and time had sped back up but Alice remained frozen at what she had seen and in that moment she had to make her choice quickly...and before she knew it she was on her feet.

"Stop..." Her voice was to nervous, to quiet no one could hear her and the next time she opened her mouth everyone heard her.
"Stop!" She all but screamed, catching everyone on the bus off guard, the bus driver stared at her like she had lost her mind.

"I said stop! I need to get off!" Behind her she heard Rose's voice call her name questioningly but she couldn't stop there, she had to know...she had to find out if her imagination was mocking her or not. For a second she thought the driver was going to ignore her but his expression became sour at the idea of stopping the bus.

"Don't miss your stop next time." The driver said gruffly pushing the button to open the doors and she all but leapt out of that bus that hadn't even slowed to a stop yet, everyone was shocked at her outburst and she could hear Rose's voice following her as she got off the bus and ran the other way.

It can't be...It couldn't be...no, I am just letting my imagination get the best of me. Because isn't this the sort of thing I always dreamed could happen? I am just convincing myself that there is a chance it is really...

Everyone knew the feeling of trying to convince themselves that something was more magical and amazing then it really was and then being let down when it was reality again. This...was just too much for her to ignore though! With that in mind she pushed her body harder to run as she saw the tall figure ahead of her only a little more down the road than he had been before.

The children that had gotten off the bus had left by this point and that just left the area deserted for all but her and the strange mysterious figure that had gotten her to react so harshly.
Alice could hear her heart pounding in her ears but why was she so nervous...surely it was just a mistake...or maybe cosplay...maybe anything...but...she didn't know.

I...got to do this like a bandaid! Quickly..! Sometimes...you just got to try and go with your gut so...I got to do this!

She realised as her legs gave out on her and she could hardly breathe anymore, gathering up all of the breath she could in her strained lungs she gave out an almighty cry, a shout that would finally answer her suspicions.

"N!" She screamed at the top of her voice, her fingers gripping her clothes above her chest tightly out of nervous habit. The person came to a stop and silence settled down around them, as if aware of the sudden atmosphere the wind picked up sharply blowing past her and pushing her dark hair out in front of her face as she stood like a statue.

Slowly the figure turned its shoulders slightly towards her and gray eyes bore into her making her breath catch in her throat.

"Why are you screaming so loudly? If you wanted to speak to me there is no need to shout...do I know you?" His voice asked her quietly in a tone that she couldn't place and all together her heart ceased to beat.

"You're really..." Staring at him everything fit perfectly...this person...this male that had answered her question...this was no doubt N...N, Natural Harmonia

...

N.

-About...30 minutes before that.-

Where am I...?
Everything is just so hazy...but why...?

N opened his eyes slowly and found himself staring up at a blue sky with few clouds in it, a nice day with a gentle breeze sliding over his form.

His body ached slightly and when he tried to sit up pain shot down through his slender body making sure he did not attempt to get up again so quickly. Accepting that he must lay there for a moment or two longer N began to piece together a sort of mental picture of what brought him to be lying out on the grass like this.

However hard he might try though he was unable to remember the events immediately before this, closing his eyes he let his mind wander back slowly. He could see his father smiling at him, a cold smile and not that of a loving father and he could see the devastation on the Unova champion's face as he fell to N's power...the old champion of Unova.

N now held that title...he was to be the hero that brought the pokemon a peaceful life though, not a champion to make them fight more.

His castle had rose up high above the ground and his father offered little but seemingly honest praise to him for his efforts and that made him happy, he all but glowed in just the memory of his stony cruel father giving praise. Then there was her, his eyes opened again as he remembered her.

Touko...or just White as a nickname.
Her face appeared in his mind, her expression during every battle they went into, determined and sure of what she believed in...An unsolvable formula however...she had fallen to him also. That determined face broken down to one of despair as her pokemon fell one after the other and finally her last pokemon already beaten and...Urg...!?

N's hand slammed against his forehead as a sharp pain assaulted him, causing a burst of white hot pain to block out his vision...that was where his memory ended...right there. He had beaten Touko but...what came after that...?

He became frustrated quickly as his mind refused to let him in on this apparent secret...this was unusual...he couldn't remember anything at all after that.

"N...I believe in my pokemon!" Her voice rang through the white space where his memory should have been.

"Gah!" His chest cletched in the most painful of ways, curling onto his side his fingers gripped at the fabric of his shirt as sounds of pain slipped past clenched teeth.

"Why...?" He whispered softly to himself through the painful haze. "Why does it hurt...where is my memory...Touko...why aren't you here with me?" He questioned the very life he held right then.

"Didn't I tell you... that if I beat you in that battle...I'd never let you slip away from me!?"

"You mean that after this battle...one way or another...you and I will...?" Her voice sounded in his head again, a memory from before they began to fight.

"Yes Touko...after this you and I can discover lots of things together." Opening his eyes slowly as he remembered his own reply to that question he wondered what he had even meant by those words.

N had wanted White to stay by his side always so that he could try and solve that formula of hers...to solve the formula of having a friend...but...she was not with him now and he did not even know where here was...could it be...did she run away from him? No...she wouldn't do that right...White wanted to stay with him also! There was no way...that she would...

Slowly he uncurled his body and lay flat on the ground while staring up at the sky with a dull expression...
"Where is this place...and how did I come to be here...? So many questions...huh?"

He could hear something coming towards him and when he turned his head to the side he saw a car like thing speeding down the road, it took him just a moment to find the right name for it, a bus...where lots of people would get a ride on one car...he'd never been on one but maybe that meant the somewhere close was a town. If he got to a town he would no doubt be able to contact his father and the rest of team plasma..

They must be worried about their king and he had to return to the pokemon that needed him. Slowly he pulled himself up, now able to finally sit as that bus came to a slow halt letting off what seemed to be a lot of young people and they were all wearing matching clothes...a club of some type maybe?

Those children were all very young to be in a club though, N didn't dwell on that for long and gradually he pulled himself up off of the ground planning to walk the other way the bus had come. N felt eyes on him and for a moment though he had imagined it but he did cast a glance up to the bus, unable to see in the windows that held such a heavy tint...but he was sure that someone in there had their eyes on him. The bus slowly began to roll away and the children that had gotten off of it all run different ways.

"Curious...if they're a club wouldn't they stay together..." N murmured to himself, talking purely to pass the time but...something was beginning to bug him. Not his lost memory or the fact he didn't know where he was...but something else that he couldn't place just yet. Down the road the bus gave a sudden screech that he all but ignored as he travelled down the grassy path quietly. Pounding footsteps were coming up behind him, probably just another child ready to run past him but...

"N!" A female's voice screamed his name and he stopped, freezing for a second sure it was Touko's voice...had she found him all on her own! N's excitement began to bubble up in a childish glee, Touko had come and found him just like all those friends in books did to their best friend!

However his excitement died pretty quickly when he glanced over his shoulder in an attempted to be cool in front of her...and...It wasn't her. A girl with similar hair that was just a little bit too long and dark to be Touko stood there staring at him with wide blue eyes, for a second he wasn't sure he wanted to reply to her at all he was so let down...it would be rude for him not to though...and a hero mustn't be rude.

"Why are you screaming so loudly? If you wanted to speak to me there is no need to shout...do I know you?" He asked the girl, she looked like she was looking right at a ghost and he wondered if maybe he had said something wrong already. She opened her mouth and he noticed that her lips were trembling just slightly, why was she so scared...he didn't think he was intimidating.

"You're really..." Her voice broke away before she could finish her thought but looking at her he felt a little bad for the poor thing so timid so he turned around to finally face her and speak.

"Yes, my name is N. Who are you though?" His words must have been wrong because the girl just stared at him...what a strange girl.

Me: "Finally! I've wanted to put this out for ages! ^^ First chapter! What do you think and tell me if you want a change in the layout of the text! Uh..." *Looks at the empty space where Flaky and Flippy normally added to this part of the post...* T-T "It's not the same without them..."

Alice: "What about us? We're here to you know..."

Touko: "I am in this right? Why is there an OC there when it's about me and N?"

Me: *Gathers them up in a group hug while answering no questions.* "New friends!" TvT "Review and what-not! On one last note, does anyone have another idea for the girl's name? I feel odd using my own name...it's like giving myself a kick." *Shakes head at her own greed.* "I'd love some other name ideas thanks."
