Chapter 1
Part 1
A Human?
A ferocious storm came across the sea. Lightning boomed and waves crashed against a small boat. The human and her Pokemon were on the verge of falling off. She shouted to her Pokemon to hold on, but a powerful wave struck the boat. The girl let go of the boat's mast, and her Pokemon tried to grab her hand, only missing by not even an inch. She tried to stay conscious as she watched her Pokemon search the waters around the boat for her, and she soon blacked out…
Riolu approached Wigglytuff's Guild, trembling with fear. I HAVE to try. I've always wanted to join and have my own team! Gotta try my best…, Riolu thought, Not like anyone else is here to support me… He stepped onto the grate in front of the entrance to the Guild, and a voice shouted from the bottom.
Diglett looked up from the tunnel beneath the grate and shouted, "Pokemon detected! Pokemon detected!…It's a Riolu! It's a Riolu!"
From hearing his name, Riolu jumped and ran down the hill away from the Guild. He ran through the crossroad and straight for the beach.
Riolu looked out at the sea, waiting.
"I can't wait to see the Krabby! At least it'll clear up my sadness…" Riolu said to himself, remembering what had happened a few moments ago at the Guild. Bubbles began to come into the air, and when Riolu peered at the edge of the cliffs, he could see the small Krabby blowing bubbles. Riolu watched as the bubbles began to glisten as they reached the sunset.
"Wow! The shining bubbles really add to this beautiful view!", he said. Maybe someday, I'll be brave enough to enter the Guild without chickening out, and this would happen when that day came!, Riolu thought. Then, he saw something move from the corner of his eye. As he approached the figure, he realized it was a Cyndaquil, lying unconscious, and ran to its side.
She slowly looked up, and saw a Riolu looking at her, his eyes widening.
The Cyndaquil quickly sat up, and Riolu said to her, "Hello there!"He wondered why he was a little nervous after seeing her finally wake up.
Cyndaquil shouted, "Y-You're a Riolu and you c-can talk!"
Riolu almost jumped back from her sudden outburst, but then he thought, N-No. I have to be cooler than I was trying to be at the Guild!
So, he tried to calmly ask her, "Yeah. Of course, Pokemon CAN talk. Didn't you know that? You're a Cyndaquil. "
After he said that, Cyndaquil started looking at herself and realized she was a Pokemon. "Ahhh! I'm a Pokemon!"
"Of course you are! How could you not know?"
"But I was HUMAN!"
Riolu was a bit startled by what she said. She was a human? Is she sick or something? Maybe she has amnesia…Riolu thought to himself.
While he thought, Cyndaquil looked at the bubbles that floated around them and said, "H-hey. These are some pretty bubbles…"
Riolu came back to his senses and, trying to change the subject, replied, "Yeah. The Krabby up there on those cliffs blow them every afternoon, and I always come around here to watch the bubbles float around."
After a long watch at the bubbles, Riolu asked, "So you said you were human, huh?"
Cyndaquil turned to him and told him, "Yes. I was out on this boat with my Pokemon, and…" She told him the events that transpired before she landed on the beach. "I fell off of the boat, and blacked out. Then, I ended up here and met you."
"Wow, I'm not sure if I can believe you even after hearing your story… Maybe you have amnesia, and you thought you were a human, a-and you were with another Pokemon-" Riolu stopped, knowing he was about to ramble if he started talking without knowing what else to say.
"But it's true! I was a human!" Cyndaquil said.
"Probably a mystery I have to solve too…" Riolu told her.
"A…mystery?" She questioned. He took out a stone with a strange insignia on it.
"I call it my 'Relic Fragment'. I just found it lying around and thought about what it is for awhile. That's why I want to form a Pokemon Explorer Team! So I can solve this mystery!" He shouted, feeling determined. "Maybe if you join my team, we can even find out how you turned into a Pokemon and why!"
Cyndaquil thought about it for a moment. Well, I don't know what else to do …and I don't even know what I CAN do at all now that I'm a Pokemon, so I guess I have to say… "Yes." She finally said.
Riolu pumped his fist into the air and hugged her tightly, and kept saying, "Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!"
He then realized Cyndaquil was almost his height if she was standing, but smaller if she was on all fours. Not your average-sized Cyndaquil… Riolu thought. He let go of her and said, "C'mon! I'll show you the Guild! Then, something pushed the two Pokemon backwards, and two Pokemon appeared before them.
"Gee, you'd think stealing from two weak Pokemon would be too easy, he-he-heh!" Zubat laughed.
"Whoa-ho-ho! That seems like a good treasure for the boss, eh?" Koffing said.
"We'll just be taking this!" Zubat took the Relic Fragment and put it in a treasure bag.
Riolu jumped up and cried, "H-hey! Give it back! That's my personal treasure!"
"Like you would even have the guts to fight us, he-he!" Zubat said, flying into the cave near them.
"If you want it so badly, come and get it! Whoa-ho-ho!" Koffing said, and he followed Zubat into the cave.
Riolu was beginning to tear up, and he turned to Cyndaquil and asked, "C-Cyndaquil, you have to h-help me!"
"A-Alright, but you're gonna have to help ME later!" She couldn't bear to see Riolu in tears, so she grabbed his hand and pulled him after her into the cave. Riolu was surprised by this, and after his tears dried up, his cheeks had a small tinge of pink on them.
Cyndaquil and Riolu walked into the first room after entering the cave.
Cyndaquil let go of Riolu's hand and asked, "W-What's this place?"
Riolu, trying to hide the small blush that was still on his face, replied, "It's Beach Cave, a mystery dungeon. Mystery dungeons are places where Pokemon can explore. Each dungeon has a floor that changes every time you leave, so it's always a random floor you're on. Right now, we should be able to get through, but we can only carry one item…"
"D-Don't worry, we'll make it. And we'll get your Relic Fragment back for s-sure!" Cyndaquil said.
Soon enough, they were on the last floor, and they both leveled up before. In the last room, the duo found Zubat and Koffing.
"He-he-heh! Hard to believe the chicken made it down here!" Zubat said.
"Whoa-ho-ho! It was probably that Cyndaquil who helped! That little chicken couldn't hurt a fly!" Koffing taunted.
Riolu, now angered, shouted, "I could hurt you guys easily! Now give me back my Relic Fragment!" The four Pokemon battled, and Koffing and Zubat were beaten. The Relic Fragment fell out of the bag as Zubat tumbled down, and Cyndaquil caught it before it hit the ground.
"C-can't believe we got beat by two wimps…" Zubat mumbled.
"Let's go to the boss! He'll know what to do!" Koffing said. After that, they both "ran" back to the entrance of the cave. Riolu helped Cyndaquil out of the cave and he started asking her about their team.
"So, Cyndaquil. What do ya want to name our exploration team?" She thought about it and suggested "Team FlameFist! Cuz I'm a Fire-type a-and you're a Fighting-type!" "Good idea! C'mon, I'll show you to the Guild!" Riolu took Cyndaquil back to the entrance of Wigglytuff's Guild.
"S-So, how do we get in?" Cyndaquil asked, glancing at the barred entrance to the Guild.
"You have to step on that grate and wait for the Pokemon to identify you. Then, they'll let you in!" Riolu explained. She watched him, and Riolu knew she was waiting for him to walk onto the grate. Cyndaquil started looking at the view around the hill. Riolu was still nervous from the last time he tried to go in. Oh man, I don't know if I can do this!, Riolu thought, N-No! I can't back down now! Not with Cyndaquil here! He glanced quickly at Cyndaquil, who was facing the opposite direction, and he started to have the pink tinge return to his cheeks. Riolu shook his head, trying to shake away his blush and stepped onto the grate.
"Pokemon detected! Pokemon detected!…It's Riolu! It's Riolu!" Diglett shouted from underneath.
"Let 'em in!" a Loudred shouted. The bars blocking the entrance started to lift up, and Riolu went inside.
He shouted to Cyndaquil, "C'mon, Cynda!" Cynda? That's a strange nickname for me…Cyndaquil thought. She stepped onto the grate.
"Pokemon detected! Pokemon detected!…It's…It's a Cyndaquil I think!" Diglett said, sounding confused.
In the tunnel beneath the grate, Loudred was shouting at Diglett, "What do you mean 'I think'? You should KNOW!"
He looked up the grate and yelled, "LET 'EM IN!" The duo entered the Guild for the first time.
"W-Wow! I can't believe that the G-Guild is actually UNDERGROUND!" Cyndaquil said. Riolu was smiling, trying to keep his excitement from bursting like Cynda. When she was looking around, he was smiling quietly to himself, amused by her happiness.
When they were on the ground floor, Chatot came by and chirped, "Ah! You two must be the two new recruits that came by today!"
Riolu said, "Yeah! We wanted to make an exploration team! Are we allowed to?"
"Of course! By all means! Let me just take you to the Guildmaster. If he approves, I will give you your first mission tomorrow!" Chatot squawked happily, and he showed them into a small room on the ground floor, where a Wigglytuff was standing in the back of the room.
"Oh! Hellooooo! Welcome to the Guild! I am the Guildmaster, Wigglytuff!" Wigglytuff said and smiled gleefully.
"So, I am guessing you wanna make your own team, huh? Well, I am happy to approve, friends! Let's all be friendly friends, friends!" Chatot smiled, but when he turned to Cyndaquil and Riolu, he had a serious face and said, "Now, be careful you two. The Pokemon are becoming more aggressive in the dungeons, and are causing more trouble! Now then..." Chatot placed a box in front of the duo's feet, and Riolu slowly opened it. Inside was a map of the world (not many places were marked on it), two Explorer ribbons, an Explorer badge, and a treasure bag. In the bag was a Joy Ribbon and a Silver Bow.
"Those two items are special! Use them and they'll boost your stats! Have an absolutely, incredible, super-duper fun time!" Wigglytuff shouted, having a huge smile on his face.
"Come with me. I shall show you both to your room." Chatot told them, and the two Pokemon followed him into a hallway, which led to three different rooms. They walked to the room across from the entrance to the hall and saw two straw beds with a circular twig-like window.
"This is where you will live from now on until you graduate from the Guild. Loudred will come back every morning to wake you both up. Oh my word, it's already nighttime! Time to sleep for your mission tomorrow! Goodnight!" Chatot chirped and left the room, lighting the lanterns lying on the ground.
"OK, Cynda. Guess he's right. Let's get some sleep." Riolu laid on the bed close to the wall and Cyndaquil laid on the bed near the entrance.
"S-So I guess we have to do some tiring work tomorrow, huh?" She said.
"Ha, yeah. I wonder how long it'll be until we finally graduate! We're gonna become stronger and might even evolve!" Riolu said to her. "Man, I can't wait to start our new adventures, Cynda!"
"H-hey! If you're gonna call me C-Cynda, then I'll just call you...um...Rio!"
Riolu turned his head away from her, slightly embarrassed, and told her "Well...erm, Ok then! If that's what you wanna call me!"
" G'Night Rio!"
" G'Night Cynda!"
Somewhere far, far away...
He walked up to the turning floating gear and quickly swiped it. All around him, the rain stopped in mid air, and the leaves of the trees stopped rustling.
"Hm. Hard to believe one gear could stop time in a whole area. Oh well. It is for the good of everyone."
The mysterious Pokemon started walking back out of the forest. In the team's room, Cyndaquil murmured, "...The gear...it's gone..."
Wow. This is longer than I expected! Yay! I wanted to split this up into two parts since this is the first chapter, but it's long enough already! The chapter told you the name of my team, and I think it suits the two (Cyndaquil and Riolu) types perfectly! I am not sure if its going that well, but with school and band and all, I am busy! Chapter 2 is up next!
