A ten step stair leads to it from a hill which stands in the frontier of Kanto, Yohto and hoenn. But to decide to go to this stone is always arbitration of a strong willed pokemon. A guardian of the stone watches the hill every day in the year. And if a pokemon decides go up the hill, he will inform the government of the 3 pokemon nations. Of course everyone wants to help this pokemon and several poeple will go to the hill and beg the pokemon to go down the hill. But some pokemon don´t decide otherwise.

These pokemon climp the ten steps of the stair, and every step they will see their entire life in replay. The stone tries to warn this pokemon, but it also calls for it. This Fanfiction tells about one of these pokemon...

Intro

Why am i here? Slowly the gaits of the pokemon went forward through the dismal landscape. It started to get cold, and dark clouds gathered at the sky. A soft wind breeze blew though the fur of the pokemon and it looked up the the grey sky. It was a Raichu. The lovely colour of his fur was dull and there could be seen some wounds which had just healed. It set one gait in front of the other. It was a male Raichu, and he could see the hill where he was leaded by his destiny. What had happened to him? Slowly he came near the guardians house, and he could already see the ten steps of sorrow. Soon he would be there, no longer time to wait anymore. Why am i here?

Jaden-Sensei was inside his house with his wife Tess and enjoyed the tea which she had prepared. "Ah, thats good!" Tess said. We can drink it now, it´s ready..." "I know, i know, i am drinking it already!" Jaden was nice man who loved tea and pokemon. Sometimes he loved tea more than pokemon, but he wasn´t sure. He was about his 65 years old and had lots of experience. He was about 1,67 cm tall and was wearing brown jeans and a blue t-shirt when he wasn´t guarding the rock. His white long hair which he had trussed into a long braid carried much wisdom in it, and his beard which was also white wasn´t very long but it looked cosy. Tessa also loves pokemon and his husband. She was proud of her man which guarded such a importand place like the rock of sorrow. For sure it wasn´t the nicest place and she didn´t want ever see a pokemon die, but now she had the change to give pokemon a second chance. 3 Pokemon she had saved already from the death, but if a pokemon didn´t chance it course, she had a task too: Everytime a pokemon wants to die and don´t want to chance, she plays the song of life fot these poor souls, too lead their way and give them the last hope.

But now she was lucky because a long time no pokemon did come to die here. The last came for about 4 years ago. She was 63 years old and a nice woman who was dressed with a colourfull skirt and a scarf. She had also white hear, and for sure she was looking good with that. "Honey, isn´t that beatiful that no pokemon wanted to die for several years?" she asked. "Yes, that is right. Everytime a pokemon comes here, it is like i can feel the pain the pokemon has suffered. A horrible and hopeless feeling. But i have to do soon my record. Lets eat the cake you baked.!" "Yes, my dear!"

Thunders were to hear and the rain slowly started to fall from the clouds. The ears of the Raichu looked down. Depressed and kind of crying he slowly went on to get to the hill. His fur got wet and ropy. The tail grinds on the ground all the time. No living, no happiness. Now he stood in front of the hill where the way leaded up. The guardian´s house stood on the way up. The big black wet eyes of the raichu were looking for hope. But nothing... Why am i here? Where do i go? On his neck the Raichu had an id-tag. "Dyna" was printed in. Dyna walked the way up, slowly and just good enough to life for the stairs. After a while he could hear the laughing of two people. Two old people. They seemed to be happy. He could understand what they were talking and joking about, but for sure, Dyna did want to have a trainer like this. But now it was too late. Slowly he turned his head and went up to the black steps.

"Honey!" Tess said suddenly. "Yes Maám?" Jaden joked. "Stop joking stupid! I think... i can feel... there is a pokemon outside..." Jaden suddenly lost all his gladness he had, and slowly a bad feeling in his stomache was there. In shock he opened slowly the window to look outside. There was nothing. For some moments he and his wife didn´t breath. They looked carefully outside, but nothing was to see about a pokemon. He turned to his wife and looked straight in her eyes. "Don´t you believe me and my feeling?" Tess asked. "I know something for sure..." the old man said low. "... i am feeling now the same. And my feeling never betrayed me." He turned back and his eyes opened wide. "Jaden? What happened?" Then Tess could see the same as Jaden.

A Raichu stood outside the rain, already by the steps of sorrow. How was that possible? Didn´t Tess and Jason notice this pokemon? It couldn´t be. It was suddenly there, like a ghost. It looked up to the rock. It was raining the hole time and it was a fascinating looking to see this pokemon there, but also horrible. Jadon couldn´t move. He had to open his eyes even more. The Raichu slowly turned his head in the direction of the pair in the house. It looked direct in Jadons eyes, and Jadon looked back. He could see directly into these horrible black painfull eyes. Jaden lost every colour in his face. What had this pokemon seen? What pain had it suffered? "Oh my god..." he said whispering. "Tess, drive to the village and tell the major it´s a suicidal... " "Oh no... this can´t be..." Tess said and run down the hill to their car. Jaden walked slowly outside the house to the Raichu. Jaden could feel that the death had a hand on the pokemons shoulder and he believed to see the ghostly flashing in the shadow of the pokmon. What should he do?
