Chapter 1: "Ele-whosie what now?"
The boy was shoved into a corner as he saw his parents dragged off into a van. What was he to do now? He had nothing left, no one to go to; his parents were his world to him. Normally he was a handsome child, but you couldn't tell with the tears that shed from his emerald eyes or the beautiful blond locks that he tugged at in frustration.
He could hear it, they were just starting up the van. Maybe, just maybe he could reach it in time to catch his parents. As if he had wings on his shoes, he sprinted off after his parents… and suddenly tripped. Barriers, of course, of course the kidnappers had Pokemon. Electabuzz, nonetheless and in that moment when they had him trapped, he saw a huge flash of electricity. The shock paralyzed him for hours, but the kidnappers didn't care; they made off with his parents.
When he finally awoke, the boy thought he was in heaven. An angel with long, shining brow hair, a petite mouth and wide, expressive odd white was because the room had recently been painted. Some fuzzy ferret-like Pokemon scurried up the girl's shoulder as she smiled at the boy. "Are you okay?" she asked as she got up to get an ice pack. blue eyes was the only thing he saw other than an unearthly white flashing all around him.
With a few moments to focus he noticed that the angel was just a normal girl and that the "I-…Who are you?" words were hard to come back to the boy after not being able to open his mouth for so long. He sat up against the head of the bed he had been laying on and looked back over to the girl. He could tell why he thought the girl was an angel… and the Pokemon was a bit cute. What was the name of that Pokemon again? he thought.
The girl giggled in delight and stroked her Pokemon a couple times. While sitting down in a chair next to the boy's bed she said, "You tell me first. Oh, and hold this to your forehead." She passed over the ice pack that she went to pick up.
From the way the girl was looking at him, he could tell that she meant him no harm unlike the men that had kidnapped his parents. He smiled back at her weakly as he took the icepack and pressed it to his head. " I should be fine soon. The Pokemon didn't hurt me too bad; they just paralyzed me. My name is Eric," he said before holding out his hand for the girl to shake. She held back a chuckle as she took Eric's hand and shook it. When she let go of his hand, she said, "And my name is Roxanne, but you can call me Roxie or even Anne if you want." The Pokemon crawled into her lap, and she picked it up to show it to Eric. "Say hello to Eric, Florina," she whispered to the Pokemon. As the Pokemon approached his wrist, Eric noticed something, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Carefully he petted it, just as Roxie had. Then he noticed that this… this Furret, that's what this Pokemon is called, didn't feel as furry as it ought to, and it was a bit colder. "Um, is there something wrong with your Furret, Roxie?" he asked as he picked Florina up.
Roxie looked a bit confused as she said, "Yea, but most people don't usually figure that out until I battle… How did you know that she was a Delta Pokemon?"
"Delta Pokemon? What the heck is a Delta Pokemon?" Eric noticed that the Furret also had small fins under its fur.
"Oh yea, I forgot that I picked you up near Orre. I'm just used to everyone knowing what's going on. A Delta Pokemon is a Pokemon whose elemental aura has been screwed around with, changing its Special type if it has one, or adding a Special type if it doesn't have one. It involves some kind of process with metal for higher stages of evolution though, so they also become steel types."
"Ele-whosie what now?"
Roxie shook her head and just smiled wider. "Elemental aurora, it determines what type of Special type a Pokemon will be if any. It can be modified so the Pokemon will be another type…But only with the machinery we have here in Holon."
Eric still didn't grasp the concept, and it didn't help that he had just been paralyzed for the last few hours. "But… Furret starts out as just a Physical, how did it get an aura?"
"Oh, it took a while, but the scientists can make artificial auras now. There's also an aura remover for Pokemon with 2 Special types so that they can undergo the metal coating process."
"Wait, why do they need the coatings again?"
"I don't really know, it has something to do with powerful Pokemon being more resistant to the change," she said with a shrug. A noise from another room could be heard, it sounded like a door being open. The smile fell from Roxie's face fell and it was replaced with a look of horror. "I'm sorry, my parents don't usually let me have guys… or injured people over," she said as she wheeled Eric's rolling bed into her walk-in closet. She put her pointer finger on her lips and made a sushing noise while closing the door. The look of confusion on Eric's face, however, stayed. How could Roxie have dragged him out of Orre with out her parents noticing. He stroked Florina a bit longer, but an Abra popped into the room. Now the answer was obvious, and he was content. Having nothing else to do, he silently slipped back to sleep.

Side Notes:
-Delta Pokemon can have a Steel coating without haveing their elemental aura changed. (ex: A Steel/Psychic Gardivoir)
-Delta Pokemon can become only Steel type with a Steel coating. (ex: A Steel Pikachu or a Steel Eevee)
