Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon.
It was a tranquil night in Johto. The sky was clear and the weather was a comfortable sixty degrees. Most humans had decided to turn in for the night, turning out their lights and crawling in to bed. Several Pokemon chose to call it a day too. However, all was not silent. The rising of the moon gave signal for the Pokemon of the night to appear. However, most of these Pokemon did not live close to large cities, and took to the forest at night. Llex forest, a forest just south of Azalea Town was one of the bustling nocturnal areas.
Deep within llex forest, nocturnal Pokemon of all types began to awaken. A HootHoot hooted from a nearby tree, watching as a pair of Psyduck waddled by. A Zubat flew uneasily through the trees; carefully aiming it's supersonic at nearby objects. Being without eyes, it was the only way it was able to find its way. The Zubat squealed aloud as a large, hanging object came into it's path. It quickly dodged as the dangling lump watched it disappear into the night. The lump was another Pokemon, an Aridos at that. Aridos were large, menacing spider Pokemon that lived up in trees. This one did not seem interested in the small bat Pokemon, as he scuttled back up into his silver hanging nest.
The Aridos slowly groomed his fangs with his long forelegs, removing any residue from his previous meal. The giant spider had traveled a long way from the other side of the forest. Although didn't seem very hard, it was difficult to do when you aren't built for moving more then a few yards at a time. The Aridos looked out at the open space before him. It was cleaner and airy than his previous home, which meant more room for any passing Pidgey or Butterfree to fly and fall into his web trap.
"A satisfactory result." He said aloud to himself. He shifted as he continued to groom himself causing the silver web to shimmer in the moonlight.
The Aridos finished his grooming session and settled into to his web to rest. Though he was nocturnal, he spent most of his energy moving and building a new web. He was officially spent. At least he had currently eaten a large Butterfree, meaning he would not need to eat for a while. A good meal made a huge difference for him, without its nutrients, he'd would've never been able to do such a fine job on constructing his web. The Aridos slowly began to doze off in his new home, ignoring the soft sounds of the night. A low droning was heard off in the distance, likely a Beedril running late. It drew closer to the web, and eventually sticking in the web. The creature let out a high pitched squeal and began to struggle against the webs sticky hold, waking the slumbering spider Pokemon in the process. He glanced over drowsily at the creature, but was shocked to see that it was not what he expected.
"The hell?" He spoke aloud as he looked upon its small green body. It had small, transparent wings and large bluish eyes; its appearance was similar to what humans called a "fairy". It cried out in anguish as it struggled to break free of the web again, ignoring the Aridos' piercing glare.
"Hey!" The poison type spoke aloud, but it did not calm the tiny green fairy down. She continue to cry and fight the web with little results. The Aridos rolled his purple eyes in annoyance as he watched the Pokemon struggle. Though he knew she would eventually get tired and give in, he was to exhausted to put up with her fighting. Besides, he'd eaten quite recently, and wasn't hungry at all. The best thing to do would be to cut her loose, so he did.
Aridos scuttled over to the tiny fairy causing her blue eyes to grow wide with fear. Her fighting stop and she put up a paw to her face as if to shield herself from the attack.
"Please, have mercy!" She screamed, tears streaming down her feminine face. The Aridos sigh softly and cut the web with the blades on his back. The Pokemon tumbled down from the trees, blinking up as she recovered from the fall. Confusion washed over her face as looked up at the hanging silver web, and the Aridos that had set her free.
"Wh-why?" She stuttered causing the spider Pokemon to wave a foreleg, dismissing the subject.
"Get lost, and don't you dare wake me up again." He said and simply turn back to he resting spot. The Pokemon managed to get to her feet, and fly up into the sky. She bowed slightly and muttered a timid,
"Th-thank you.. fore your kindness." And flitted away into the night. The Aridos, however, was already asleep, and did not hear her.
Kay, chapter one completed! I hope to get up chapter two soon, please R&R.
