Best friends

You're in the dark. You're afraid. And you're ALL ALONE. But then you're best friend comes, and they guide you to the light.

Disclaimer: I don't own pokemon. I do own the plot of this story, and the story itself. I do not own Professor Elm, Lyra, Silver, Crystal or Gold, they-along with pokemon-belong to Game Freak, Nintendo, and any other companies involved in making/being a part of a contract with Nintendo and Game Freak.

A/N: Hello! I'm An Unknown girl from Johto! This is my first ever story, written for my little brother. I was on crack (sugar) when I wrote this first chapter (plus my little brother was rushing me), so, it isn't that good. But, read it anyway!

Chapter 1

This is what happened to me. I just turned 10, a legal trainer. But I wasn't ready; if I were I would have a pokemon. My name is Crystal, but for some weird reason, people call me "Lyra". I had only one friend at the time. His name was Gold. We both lived in New Bark town, a small little town in Johto.

Gold is nice, and wants to become the Johto Pokemon League Champion. But one person stands in his way, not the Elite Four, not Lance, but Silver. Silver creeps me out to no end. He thinks the tododile he stole is weak. If I had a pokemon, i'd show him! He finds dirt about everyone (Including me and Gold) and uses it against us. The little jerk!

And then it happened. Professor Elm called me. He wants me to go on an adventure with pokemon! Gold is coming too! Three words: BEST. DAY. EVER!

"Hey, Professor Elm!" I shouted. Gold was already there as usual. Apparently, Gold chose a cyndaquil, and was getting his pokedex. The only pokemon left was a chikorita. But that was the one I wanted anyway! I nicknamed it Leafy.

Gold and I were minding our own business when Silver snuck up behind me and pulled me into a bush. He covered my mouth when Gold noticed I was missing. Gold started calling out my name when Silver told me to tell him important information about Gold every Thursday night. I refused. And Silver punched me while I staggered backwards towards Gold. Gold saw my sore face and asked what happened; all I did was point at the bush. But Silver was gone.

After that, Gold rushed me to Violet City so I could go to a hospital. In the waiting room, I got the courage to ask him; "Gold do you like me?". He said, "Of course I like you! You're my best friend!" " I meant do you love me?" "…" "…" " Come on in!" said the random nurse who is at every pokecenter and heals your pokemon. Soon, I came out of the hospital with a pack of ice on my cheek.

Gold and I didn't talk to each other for a long time. Finally, he broke the silence. "So… are you hungry?" he asked. But I didn't have time to answer with my mouth, because my stomach answered. *Grrr…* Both of us cracked up. Then we went to "The Bird Bath Inn" and ate in their restaurant. We stayed in one of the hotel rooms that night; "Sweet dreams." I said, and fell fast asleep.
