Chapter 1

The Beginning

Note: Pokemon names are Underlined and Pokemon moves are Bolded. Enjoy!

(In a town of Pokemon known as Treasure Town, a young Pokemon, a Charmander, named Alex, wakes up to find himself late for school.)

Alex: Aw man. I'm gonna be late!

(Alex picks up his treasure bag and bolts out the door. As he's running he stops and sees that a Riolu has crash landed in front of him.)

Alex: Hey, are you alright?

?: Ugh…Yeah, I'm fine. Where is this, anyway?

Alex: This is Treasure Town. This is where most exploration teams begin their journeys. Anyway, I'm Alex, I go to a school that trains Pokemon to become Explorers. Who are you? It's rare to see a Riolu in this neck of the woods.

?: My name's William. I don't know how I got here really. I was flying on a Flygon looking for the bandits that took my sister, Sayla. Then, out of the big blue sky, we were attacked by Zapdos. Flygon and I got separated and…well…here I am.

Alex: Hmm, well I guess now that I'm late for school that it's not a good idea showing up. Hey, how about I come with you, Jake? It would be a lot safer if you had somebody to travel with. Plus I can hold my own. I already know Fire Spin, Slash, Flamethrower, and…ummm….

William: What? Go on.

Alex: I'd rather not say.

(There was silence. Then, Jake begins to speak.)

William: Well, you're right on one thing; it would be easier safer in I had a travelling companion. And since I don't know Double Team, I'm in dire need of a Pokemon who's willing to back me up. OK, you can go with me.

Alex: (excited) Really? You mean it?

William: (annoyed) Yeah. Come on we'll go by Rainbow Tunnel.

Alex: What's a Rainbow Tunnel?

William: There a special tunnel that allows you to go to other dimensions. They look like a rainbow, so they're easy to find. There's one right there. (he points to a rainbow) They say that they can only be seen after a rainstorm. Well here's one and it doesn't seemed to have rained at all. Oh and one more thing, the Rainbow Tunnel knows where you want to go, so it automatically gives you a path to your favored destination.

Alex: Look! It's opening!

(the Rainbow Tunnel opens to reveal a forested area where there seems to be a struggle happening.)

William: Oh! Alex? Do you have a weapon equipped?

Alex: No, should I?

William: Yes. Your Pokemon moves won't do as much as you'd think they would in that dimensions. That's why you'll need this.

(He pulls out a sword that is orange with a fiery yellow blade. Alex takes it and swings it a few times.)

Alex: Is this a…

William: Yeah a Chari-Sword. A sword made exclusively for the Charmander to Charizard Evolution chain. I can use it, so it's yours.

Alex: I can thank you later. But right now we need to save those creatures!

(The two heroes rush through the Rainbow Tunnel with one thing on their minds: to save the creatures on the other side.)
