Chapter 1

"The Inspiration"

It was a calm day in Pallet Town; the quiet townspeople did their everyday routine for the town was slow and separated from the other big and bustling cities, except Viridian City. Things hadn't been the same since Red had left Pallet Town and became Champion. He had started to come back less and less until he stopped coming altogether. Heck, things hadn't been the same since Steven had become Champion and his Charizards tragic accident.

Now they're only two teenagers in Pallet town, both 14 years old. The first one was a boy named Michael who was a very energetic teen who had spikey black hair and brown eyes underneath a pair of glasses. He was a good height, around 5, 5 and always had something to say.

The other teen was a girl named Vera, who despite her appearance was always happy. She usually wore punk rock gothic-Lolita clothes. She had chocolate brown hair, and a nice personality. If you were in a bad mood, she'd have something to say to cheer you up.

They both had an equal love for Pokémon, even though neither of them had one.

Looking at these two, you think they would be complete opposites, but they were best friends. They spent most of every day hanging out with each other. They'd sit at the ocean opening south of Pallet Town, and would pull pranks too.

"Hey look! Someone's walking into the tall grass without a Pokémon!" They would both yell, causing Old to coming running from his lab screaming, "Hey wait! It's dangerous to- where'd they go?"

"Ahaha!" blurted out the two teens, blowing the two teens cover.

"You darn kids! Don't do that!" Professor Oak yelled at them.

"Yeah I'm sure that Rattata in the grass would've killed somebody!" Michael joked.

"Just get away from here." Said Professor Oak. "Ugh…I need a fresh water after all that running." He muttered as he walked off.

"That was great!" said Vera still laughing.

"You know who taught me that joke?" asked Michael with a small smile. "Red. Before he left to the Indigo Plateau."

Vera kind punched his shoulder softly and said "You still miss him huh?"

"Yeah he was like a big brother to me. Even Steven was…" he said with a slightly less happy tone from earlier.

"It was tragic what happened to Steven, but let's not reminisce on the past! Let's go do something!" said Vera trying to cheer up Michael.

"Ok!" said Michael. They made their way over to Daisy Oak's house. Every day she made delicious tea and gave some to Vera and Michael.

"Hey guys!" exclaimed Daisy as she gave them their mugs of tea. "Here you guys go."

"Thanks Daisy." Said both the teens in unison. They drank their tea and went off to do other stuff.

They made their way to where the sea met the south end of Pallet Town. They sat near the edge while Michael tried to fish out a Magikarp. He finally managed to and pulled it out. He put it in front of his face waving it around and said "Hey I'm Magikarp! The weakest Pokémon in existence! I used splash and it had no effect!"

"Ahaha!" laughed Vera "Oh my gosh… my sides!" she said as she grabbed her sides.

The Magikarp started to look mad as it jumped from Michael's hand back into the water. After it was in the water it started to glow and got bigger.

Suddenly bubbles started to rise from the water and a huge looming serpent like monster rose from the water.

Michael pointed and muttered out. "It's a G- Gyarados!"

Vera screamed in terror as Michael pulled her away as the water and ground around them was starting to shake.

"It's using Dragon Rage!" they both screamed as they ran away.

(Later)

Both teens were at Vera's house who was the closest, and because Michael's parents weren't home.

Vera's parents were scolding her for what happened. "We've told you a million times not to be by the water! Same goes for the tall grass too. Professor Oak came by and told us what you did!"

Vera was sitting in front of her parents and was stuck getting scolded.

"And you young man!" said Vera's father pointing at Michael, "Your parents will be hearing about this when they come back from Viridian City!"

"Ugh…" Groaned both teens.

Michael had gone home and unlocked his house with a spare key. He went up to his room and layed on his bed. He looked at an old picture in his room which was a group picture of himself, Vera, Red and Steven. He grabbed the picture and started talking to himself.

"Damnit Red! Why don't you come back home anymore!? You could've gotten us out of that mess. Your Pikachu could knocked out that Gyarados in no time." Said Michael in frustration.

He didn't even say anything about Steven. He hadn't seen him in so long it didn't matter anymore. Whatever happened to him, no one knew. Him and Vera tried sneaking into his abandoned house but got caught by some adults. They both had gotten grounded for a week.

Michael just turned off his lights and went to bed, as an excuse to not having to listen to his parents for an hour about the accidents today. As he went to bed he thought of something. A way him and Vera could spend every day like they always do without having to worry about their parents nagging on them about safety and the dangers of Pokémon. If fact they would be around Pokémon all the time. And they could even find out what happened to Red.

(The Next Day)

"Pokémon Trainers?" said Vera with a confused look. "What in the world made you think of that?"

"Vera it's very simple!" exclaimed Michael "If we become Pokémon trainers, we can escape our parents discipline, be around Pokémon, and have all the fun we have here but in other exciting cities. I know you've always wanted to go to Celadon City!"

"Well yeah…" she admitted with a guilty smile for she loved to buy stuff. "But how would we convince out parents? What if something happen? An Arcanine could maul us! An Arbok could poison us!"

"Don't worry! By the time we see those kinds of Pokémon we'll have our own to defend ourselves with!" Said Michael with much enthusiasm. We could even find out where Red is!"

Vera's eyes sparked and said "You really think we could find him?"

"I know so" replied Michael.

Michael held out his hand and said "Come on Vera! Shake hands with me and swear we'll both become Pokémon trainers!"

Vera made a confident smirk and said "Fine. But you know if we were to battle I'd win." As she shook Michael's hand.

"Nuh-uh! I'd beat you!" he said messing up her hair.

"Hey quit it!"

"Nope!"

The two teens continued to mess around till the day ended.

They had made a pact for the next day.

Tomorrow they would both ask their parents if they could start a Pokémon journey together.
