CHAPTER 1- The Journey Begins

The desert deep into the Orre region was quiet and peaceful, as always, with what looked like large, birds (Skarmory) flying around outside of a large, abandoned storage building that was hidden by some cliffs. Also known as Team Snagems' current hideout. Inside, Grunts were talking and walking around, when there was a huge explosion in the small, connected building. The wall blew up and everyone was either covering their heads or looking around.

The leader, Gonzap, glared and yelled at some Grunts to go and see what that explosion was. Meanwhile, over at the connected building, an accessory that ran down an arm that ended in a black glove, the Snag Machine, was attached to a stand.

Haruhi stood in the wall of the explosion, her silver glasses on. She went over and grabbed it, smiling wide. Gonzap and his Grunts ran with all of the speed they could muster to the room that held the Machine. A small, sleek black, catlike creature with red, catlike eyes that had yellow bands along it's pointed ears and foxlike tail and yellow rings on his forehead and legs bit on Haruhi's long, blue skirt and pulled,warning her. She looked down and nodded as the yellow bands and rings on his body began to glow. She pulled her biker glasses down and stood in the exploded wall they had created. As the door opened and grunts ran in, Umbreon cried out his name and a bright flash lit up the room, blinding them.

Haruhi and Umbreon ran through the desert, side by side, snag machine under arm, to Haruhi's hover bike, where another catlike creature with four slim legs, tiny paws, a slender tail that was forked at the end, lavender fur, large ears with with dark purple-blue insides that had long tufts of fur below them, a red gem on his forehead, and a pair of pupiless eyes with white irises and purple scleras* was patiently waiting in the side car.

The front door to the hideout slid open and Gonzap ran out after her, Grunts still in tow. Gonzap grabbed the part of her dress that flew behind her and pulled her back. The lavender Pokemon, Espeon, jumped out and, as his fur swayed and shimmered from the wind and the sun and his eyes glowed a deep lavender, Gonzap was thrown by some invisible force into his grunts. Haruhi jumped onto the driver's seat, threw the machine in the side car where Umbreon and Espeon had now seated themselves. She started it and, after a large jerk backwards, they sped away into the desert, disappearing.

Team Snagem stopped chasing her, breathing heavily, when Haruhi pulled out a remote with a single red button on it. She pressed it and the middle of the hideout blew up. She continued to drive away, pulled her glasses up, and gave a satisfied smile while Gonzap fumed at the entrance.

They continued to go until Haruhi saw a broken down train with a ramp entrance. Around it, train wheels were stuck deep into the sand and there was a place to refill gas. She knew that this was the Outskirt Stand. She sighed before jumping off of her bike and grabbing a bag that was in the floor under her Pokemon. They were about to come with her when she motioned them to stay.

"I'll be back in a minute," she assured them. "Guard the Snag Machine." They looked at each other for a moment before nodding, know what a dangerous task this could become.

Haruhi smiled at them and headed towards the ramp entrance when she saw a green hover car in front of it. In the back were 2 brown sacks that were squirming around.

She went to get a closer look when 2 young men exited the stand. The first one had golden hair that was spiked up with traces of red at the tips. He wore a teal muscle shirt with matching sunglasses, grey fingerless gloves, baggy skyblue pants, and clunky brown boots. The other had blonde hair that stuck out of a dark blue hat that had been stretched to where it looked like it held 2, cropped side ponytails. He had on an orange vest that was over a dark blue sweater with light blue stripes on the sleeves. He also wore long kakis and boots similar to his partner.

They stopped in front of their hover car to chat, not noticing Haruhi. The one with the red streaks spoke first.

"Fwaah! We sure pigged out, eh? I love chowing down after a job! It adds to the flavor, I swear."

His partner nodded enthusiastically. "Heheheh, yeah. And we bagged ourselves a great big catch, too. Boss'll be sure to fix us up good with big rewards, too. It doesn't get any better than this!"

They got into there hover car and drove off. Haruhi stared after them, but didn't follow, deciding that it didn't concern her.

Inside the outskirt stand, it was like a mini restaurant. When you first walked in, there was a bar surrounded by stools. Farther in, were small booths and there was a bathroom in the back. Beside the booths, there was a television connected to the wall and a jukebox.

She sighed before heading to the bathroom. It was small and a little busted up, such as the mirror was cracked, the toilet was dirty, and the sink's pipes were broken. She laid down her bag and changed. She now wore a long, blue overcoat with a black collar. Her shirt and pants were black, matching her combat boots. She looked at herself, trying to decide if they would still recognize her. After deciding yes, she pulled out some scissors and snipped them slightly. She gave herself one final look, before she grazed it along her hair. It was now above her shoulders. It looked like a boy hairstyle, she thought briefly, not really caring as long as Team Snagem didn't recognize her. Haruhi then set her large bike glasses on her head and looked at herself again. She smiled before walking back out to the bar.

Haruhi walked out of the stand, bag in hand, and called her Pokemon.

"Espeon, Umbreon! C'mon!" They smiled and jumped out of the sidecar, racing to their trainer. Umbreon held up the Snag Machine. Haruhi grinned; she always new that Umbreon was the more mature one.

She connected it to her left arm and pulled her black gloves on. It had a black shoulder pad that was outlined in dark red. The red outline circled around her arm before it covered her left hand, that looked like it was a black glove.

If her Pokemon were surprised by her new look, they didn't say anything. The Pokemon sat down at an empty booth in the front while Haruhi got them some Pokemon food, while getting herself a hotdog and some french-fries.

"Oh?" The man at the counter looked her over. He had dark red hair and a green hat that made it stick out in the back. He had a large white shirt and green zigzagged pants. "I haven't seen your face around these parts. A traveler, huh?" She nodded. "Not that it matters any. I don't know where you might've come from, but relax, stick around a while."

She sat down and her Pokemon immediately dug in. She slowly ate her fries, occasionally giving them one.

She had to take everything in. That morning she had been the best Snagger in Team Snagem. She had had a home, a family. She had just recently started to question their motives and she came disgusted with them. One week later, this morning, she had blown up the hideout and escaped.

She couldn't even imagine how angry her adoptive father, Gonzap, was at the moment. He had saved her life 10 years ago, when she was 5 years old, and he had raised after she had found that she had amnesia. She didn't question him, though.

Umbreon poked her hand with his head. She looked and saw him gesture to the television. It was the News.

"Authorities have made a stunning announcement on the mysterious building that exploded in Eclo Canyon," The News-lady reported. "It was Team Snagem's hideout. The hideout was discovered only as a result of the explosion," Haruhi smiled at her Pokemon," By the time police arrived, the ruined building had already been abandoned." Haruhi frowned. "The cause of the explosion is under investigation. It should become apparent eventually."

Haruhi sighed and leaned back in the green, leather seats. Around her. The few people who were there were discussing the News.

"You know, I don't quite understand what happened, but having your hideout blow up on you… Crime doesn't pay, I guess. I love a crime free life so nothing's gonna blow up on me." The man laughed at his joke, though the woman he was telling this to didn't.

"There's no forgiving that Team Snagem. They don't deserve it, not when they steal Pokemon from trainers! After all, they are a gang of Pokemon abductors who have already been marked for arrest. Why, I'd give a 'hip, hip, hooray' if they were wiped out with their wrecked hideout."

Haruhi sighed before she stood up to take her leave. She figure that if anyone found out who she truly is-or was- they would never accept her. Espeon jumped on her right arm and Umbreon walked by her feet. As they headed down the ramp, a voice yelled behind her.

"Yo! Wait! Wait up!" A young man ran out in front of her to stop her. He had dark, pink hair and sideburns. He wore cowboy pants, boots, and a vest. "Hey, my name's Willie.

"Haruhi," she nodded to him and greeting.

"Well, you see, I was just wondering if you wanted to go on a date... with me?"

Her eyes widened in surprise. "No thanks. I'm not much of a dater-"

"Okay, how about we battle for it. If i win, you go on a date with me."

"Uh, i don't know-"

"Scared you'll lose?"

"Of course not. I have full faith in my Pokemon." He was surprised she had said this calmly and had not risen to the bait. "I just don't want to have a battle to determine if I'll go out with you when I've already said no.

"C'mon! Any way I look at it, it's obvious that you're no ordinary Joe. So, what do you say? Let's you and me have a quick battle!"

Haruhi looked at her Pokemon and saw that they seem determined to win, so she nodded.

"Yeahah! That's the spirit!" He cheered. "All right. Over here, this way." He led her of the ramp, down in front of the stand. "All right! Let's go!"

He threw his pokeball and a small, brown and white racoon jumped out. It had bristly fur that alternated in layers of cream and brown that were in a zigzag lining, due to the ragged lining. It's brush tail was very spiky and bristly and it's head was brown with spiky ears and a jagged muzzle. It also had a sort of black "mask" pattern over it's brown eyes and black nose. It had three claws on it's cream colored forefeet and brown hind feet, with pink padding on the bottom. It opened it's mouth to growl "Zigzagoon!" at her and she spotted 2 fangs on it's lower jaw.

Haruhi gave a small smile before gesturing to Espeon with her head. He jumped out, sitting down. They had both hoped that they would have an exciting battle.

"Confusion," she commanded, bored. Espeon's eyes glowed purple and Zigzagoon was suddenly blasted back by some unknown force. It hit the stand and fell down to the ground, unconscious.

Willie returned Zigzagoon and sent out another one. Haruhi sighed. "Umbreon." He nodded and Espeon sauntered back to Haruhi.

"Bite." Umbreon heeded and this one was out with one hit, too.

Willie returned his other Zigzagoon. "Tch… Wiped out. And so easily, too." He sighed and walked over to shake her hand. "But, yeah, you're tough. Real tough. You did a real number on us. Hey, I know. Why not test your skills in Phenac City? It's out west of here. You'll find trainers who are way better than me there. You should go out there and get some battling in."

She nodded and headed to her hover bike. She put her glasses over her eyes and headed out, her Pokemon in the sidecar like before.

Tough trainers, huh? She thought. Might be fun. I need some fun right about now. After all, I'm gonna have to deal with Team Snagem again eventually.

AN- Yes, this is basically the game with more depth and the host club. I was debating on whether to make the twins Trudly and Foley but I decided to make them best friends instead, like in the anime. Sorry about any OOCs, I know there are a lot of them, especially Haruhi. Also, the other chapters will be longer.
