His Own World

Ch. 1

In the Sinnoh region of the Pokemon world, there is a garden of flowers in its northeastern corner. This Flower Paradise, filled with Gracidea flowers, is overflowing with beauty and enjoyed so much by the few who behold it. The pink Gracidea flowers cover the landscape of the small green island, blowing in the gentle breeze beneath the cool, clear sky. If you follow a narrow dirt path to the center of the island, you will find a giant glacier, the place where a great battle ended. It is here where our story begins.

Inside the giant glacier, an airship was trapped. If you looked very closely inside the ship, you could see a man with his head in his hands, bent over in his chair like an old man, even though he still had his whole life ahead of him. If you tuned out everything else and focused on the man with silver hair, you could hear him faintly crying…

This man is Zero. He has orange eyes and silver hair that flips out at the end. He wears a yellow suit modeled after the Pokemon, Giratina, whom he was wanted to capture. On his chest is a vertical red rectangle with a large black zero with a line through it.

"I was so close! Those brats didn't understand my intentions," he sobbed, "I just wanted to keep the Reverse World immaculate. Giratina would have helped me attain that goal, couldn't they see? I just wanted to live alone in that perfect world." Zero looked up. His eyes were rimmed with red, and more tears streamed down his already tear-stained face.

"Curse that girl! Thanks to her, I'm talking to myself in a frozen ship…" he rubbed his arms and stood up.

He took no more than three steps before collapsing…

When Zero woke up, his senses were attacked. He smelled fresh flowers mixed with the smell of rusting metal. He felt a warm breeze intermingling with the icy air. He heard pounding and the crackling of electricity; but the greatest of all these was what he saw… Light. There was a door-sized hole in the ice where the windshield used to be. His Magnezone and a few of his remaining Magneton and Magnemite were pounding the ice and zapping it with electricity in hopes to break and melt it. Zero was once again crying.

He stumbled to his feet and went towards the opening. His Magnezone flew in and swept him up and out of the ship. Zero then saw how high he was, immediately closed his eyes, and held on for dear life. A few seconds later, Magnezone touched the ground. Zero, with his eyes still closed gingerly put out a hand to make sure that the ground was there. He opened one eye, then the other, and smiled. He began to kiss the ground and laugh. He was free! Zero regained his sanity and realized he had to get away as soon as possible. Not just because the police would be after him but also because he had to start over. He stood up from the earth and called a Magneton and Magnemite over to him.

"Please go and get the world map from the ship." The Pokemon did what he asked and they were back about a minute later with a large map of every charted area in the Pokemon world. Putting his hand over Sinnoh, he closed his eyes and twirled his finger around the map. He put his finger down, opened his eyes, and was pleased with the result.

A region on the other side of the map compared to Sinnoh, near the Kanto region. His new home was…

"Johto… Perfect!"
