Hello everyone! This is my first story on Fanfiction. Lately I been having a lot of time on my hands after school so I decided to write a story about Mei's journey(I don't like her English name.)
Well this will be a mix of adventure,romance, and humor. With a lot of crackish elements mixed in. There's a butt load of journey fics out there, so I need mine to stick out in some way, right? xD
This follows the plot of White 2, so please read at you're own risk!
"It's time for…BALDY THE POKEMON MAGICIAN with special guest appearance CHRISTOPH!"
Mei let out a squeal and hugged her chibi doll of Christoph while she stared intently at the television screen. A skinny bald guy walked onto a stage that was adorned with blinking lights. His face was painted white and his makeup seemed to be put on by blind preschoolers, making him look like a grotesque clown. The man spouted some gibberish and a boy with spiky light green hair and green eyes appeared in a cloud of sparkles.
A door slammed nearby. "Mei! I just talked to Professor Jupiter and she wants to give you a Pokedex!"
"KYAAAAA!" Mei screamed and scooted closer to the television. "IT'S CHRISTOPH!" The brunette loved everything about the celebrity. His little mole on his chin, to his light green hair. He was funny, nice, smart,a good singer, and good looking!
"Mei?"
The girl glanced upwards blankly at her brown-eyed mother. Her mom sighed and grabbed the remote from the couch and pressed the off button.
Mei jolted upwards and stared in horror as the love of her life disappeared into blackness. "H-hey!" she shouted, diving to snatch the remote from her mom.
Her mom moved out of the way, letting her daughter fall onto the ground. "You'll be thanking me later if you hear what I have to say."
Mei glared at her, obviously not pleased about having Christoph gone. "What is it mom?"
Her mother laughed and said, "Ok brace yourself, do… you want a pokemon?"
Well that was a no-brainier. " No, I'm fine with watching Christoph."
Her mom's mouth fell wide open." I thought you always wanted a pokemon!"
Mei took this moment of shock to her advantage. She grabbing the T.V remote from her mother's hand and turned Baldy back on. The smiling 'magician' was summoning Patrats that were running around in circles around a slightly nervous looking Christoph.
"That was before I met Christoph," Mei replied dreamily.
Mei's mom sighed and latched onto the cord of the T.V and pulled on it, making the screen go black.
"No!"
Her mom placed her hands on her hips and glared at her daughter. "I'm tired of you - a fourteen year old - being a lazy bum and having no life! Go get a pokemon and start your pokemon journey along with Hugh! I already told him about you getting your Pokemon today from Professor Juniper! "
"B-but mom... I don't want to!"
"Well I want you to, so get up!" Her mom grabbed Mei's arm and stared pulling on it, dragging the girl to the door. The nap of the carpet rubbed harshly against her thin black tights, making her legs feel like they were on fire. "Ow,mom let me get up!" she yelled, grimacing from the pain.
Her mom let go of her and smiled while she watched her daughter get up and rub the back of her legs."Are you going to get your pokemon now?"
The burning sensation had finally disappeared, so Mei stopped rubbing. "What about school? If I go on a pokemon journey I can't go to school!" Mei knew for sure that that would make her mom change her mind.
Her mother's eyebrows furrowed together. "What school? Sweetie, you don't go to school."
That's right…I don't go to school…Mei thought to herself, I haven't been outside for an awhile, but wasn't there new school nearby? The girl's face brightened up. "I could go to that new trainer school!"
"Nope!" Her mom waggled a finger. "That's a Pokemon Trainer school. You're going to need to get a pokemon to go in there."
"I-I…u-um..." Mei knew her mom had gotten her there. "I don't want to get a pokemon though…"
"Mhmm! If you get a Pokemon, Hugh wouldn't brag to you about his pokemon."
Hugh was Mei's childhood friend. He had hatched a Tepig from an egg a couple weeks ago, and stopped by Mei's house every so often to brag about it. Mei had gotten use to it and didn't really care about it anymore.
"I really don't mind his bragging," said Mei.
Her mom's eyes twinkled with mischievous."You really don't mind him?"
"Well yeah, he's my friend!"
"Well...I do think that boy has a thing for you."
"Huh?" Mei cocked her head to one side." A thing for me? My birthday is pretty far from today."
Her mother sighed. Sometimes, her daughter's denseness was too much. Suddenly an idea struck her, making her face light up like a bulb." You know...if you go on a pokemon journey you might meet that Christoph guy you like so much."
Mei widened her eyes. She might meet Christoph… They would fall in love and have two children. A girl named Angelia and a boy named Chris. A high-pitched giggle formed inside of her and escaped her throat.
Her mom smiled." Find a girl with a big green hat! She's suppose to give you a Pokemon and Pokedex !" She rushed into another room and came back with a white handbag and white visor."Here's your stuff! Stay safe! " With that said, Mei's mom pushed her daughter out the door, and closed it behind her.
"Thanks mom," the brunette murmured and stumbled outside into Aspertia City, still dreaming about her future with the idol. She was snapped wide awake by a cool breeze and the warm rays of the sun on her face. She put her visor on her head and fixed her two pigtails. She needed to become a Pokemon Champion so Christoph would notice her!
It's been a long time world..." Mei thought and ventured off to the more crowed parts of the city.
The brunette turned her attention to the sound of foot steps behind her. It was Hugh and that little demon. Hugh had navy blue hair, that spiked upwards like a pineapple. He always wore a red and white jacket, that zipped all the way up to his chin. Mei didn't know how he wore it; she felt like that jacket would choke her if she tried to move her neck.
Mei tried to smile brightly while ignoring the glares of the little demon." Hi Hugh!" Trickles of sweat formed behind her bangs. She glanced at the little demon- brown hair tied into a ponytail with a big ribbon, a green dress, and big brown eyes- it was a good innocent looking disguise, but it could never fool her.
Hugh smiled at her."Hey Hermit! Your mom told me to outside and watch you get your pokemon! I'm glad you're finally outside for once. Not that I missed you or anything."
"And I tagged along with big bwother." a high-pitched, annoying sound came from the little demon's mouth. Mei shot the little demon a scowl, who in exchange gave her a smirk.
Hugh smiled, oblivious to the looks they were giving each other, and flung out his arm, whacking the little demon in the eye. It howled in pain and clutched its face.
Serves that thing right! Mei thought to herself, extremely pleased with seeing her tormentor in pain.
Immediately, Hugh bent down so he was eye level with the little demon. He pulled the little demon into a hug, whispering into its ear,"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean too!"
The little demon stopped crying and looked up at Mei. It smirked at her and returned back to sniffling in Hugh's shoulder.
Mei scowled. Ever since she moved her and met Hugh, the little demon became jealous of how Hugh had another girl in his life. The little demon would cry for attention whenever she was around, blame things on her, trip her with her small legs, put strange substances in her shoes…And when Mei would tell on the little demon, it would act as an innocent young girl. And after its Purrlion got stolen, it became worse. The little demon was one of the reasons Mei hardly ever went outside.
Wait…if I go on a pokemon journey…then I won't ever have to see this demon again! A wide smile grew on Mei's face and she felt blissful laughter bubble up inside of her.
The little demon glared at her and her face contorted in disgust. Its face loosened up back into its innocent form as it let go of Hugh. It tugged on Hugh's jacket and looked up at the red-eyed boy. "Big bwother? What's wrong with it?"
"It?" Hugh and Mei asked simultaneously.
The little demon pointed straight at the brunette." It."
Mei's eye twitched in annoyance. Little demon…I can't wait until I leave this place."Well Hugh! Let's go and get my first pokemon!" She rushed by the little demon and grabbed Hugh's hand."NOW," she hissed through gritted teeth.
Her friend shot her an odd look before shrugging his shoulders.
"WAIT! BIG BWOTHER!"
"Yes?"
The little demon pointed at Mei."I wanna talk to her." It proceeded to skip up to them and pull apart their hands. The little demon went a step further and dug its claws into Mei's hands. " Bend down, big swister."
Mei was sure the little demon was going to spit acid in her ear or even rip it off. For the sake of keeping her body parts, she shook her head. "Big sister has a bad back, so why don't you talk to me from there?"
The little demon gave her an evil eye before pouting like a regular kid."Big bwother…she won't let me whisper into her ear…"
Hugh scratched his head."Uh, Mei-"
"Bad back!"
"Big bwother, you can go on ahead. I need to talk to swister in private."
Oh no.
"Um…okay."Hugh turned around and began walking away from them, stopping a couple of feet away.
Mei took a deep breath. It wasn't like the little demon could kill her. Hugh was nearby and the neighborhood people were walking around. If the little demon did anything to her, she could just scream and people would rush towards her to help.
"My big brother may like you, but I sure don't. In fact I hate you. So stay away from him. And I hope you die during your journey." The little demon then proceeded to say some words that Mei's mom would probably clean Mei's mouth out with soap if she ever said them.
How the girl wished she had the power to make the little demon explode from the inside.
One could only dream.
"I bet your father died to get away from you," the little demon said, smirking up at her.
Mei huffed to restrain herself from straight out slapping the little demon. She didn't want the little demon to pretend that she had just slapped it for no reason. And she especially did NOT want the little demon to get the reaction that it wanted. That had happened way too many times, with Mei getting scolded by the adults.
If it wanted to get nasty, then she would get nasty as well. She lowered her self down to the little demon's height. No one was close enough to hear their conversation, so she might as well say it. Mei opened her mouth to whisper about how the little's demon Purrloin willingly let itself get taken away so it could escape from it.
A hand tapped Mei shoulder. "Hey!"
The brunette dramatically whirled around in a vain effort to smack the little demon in the face with her hair. Her pigtails sailed through the air and missed the little demon.
"Hurry up! We need to get your pokemon! There's something I need to do after we start our journey!" Hugh urged impatiently.
"O-Oh yeah! Let's go! A person named Bianca is going to give me my pokemon."
Hugh nodded and turned to the little demon with smile. "Go on back home. Tell mom and dad that I'm heading off!"
The little demon nodded and put the sweetest smile it could make on its face."Okay big bwother." It turned to brunette with a malicious smile. "Bye-bye Mei…"
Mei shuddered as she watched the little demon walk into her house. She started laughing in happiness and clapped her hands. I never have to see it ever again!
"Hermit, what are you doing?"
"I-I'm just so HAPPY! Let's go!"
Mei watched Hugh peer through the windows of a tall brown building. "Nope." Hugh got up and brushed the dirt off his navy blue pants." That's the last building in Aspertia. I wonder where this Bianca girl is."
"It's been three hours! Where is she? I bet she would be a pro at hide and go seek!" Mei yelled in exasperation. She really wanted to get out of Aspertia before the little demon could talk to her eyes casually trailed over an arch shaped building. Sunlight glinted off the green roof off it just like a beacon light pointing at ships in the sea. This building was the chosen one! Mei just knew it in her guts.
"Oh! Let's go over there!" she exclaimed and ran towards Aspertia Gate with Hugh hurrying behind her.
"Mei!" Hugh called out as the girl stepped inside the building.
"Yeah?"
"This building leads to Route 19. There's another place in Aspertia where Bianca could be, and if she isn't , I'll check the route for you." Hugh stared at the blue-eyed girl as he registered what he said. He felt his face get hot. "'I-I mean, it's not like I want to do it for you!" he quickly added.
Mei beamed at him. "Thanks! Where's the place?"
"Uh...follow me." The boy replied and stuffed his gloved hands into his pocket.
Soon they were at a white staircase. Mei's eyes squinted through the blinding sunlight trying to look at what was on the top. Though she hated to admit, Mei had never been at this part of town, even thought she lived in Aspertia for all of her life. What she hated more was that Hugh's nickname for her - Hermit - was actually true.
So many stairs… Mei glanced up. She still had a couple more steps to go to the top. She was seriously out of shape.
Hugh was already at the top and looked down at Mei."Hurry up Hermit! You gotta see this view… and I found the big green hat!"
Mei nodded and gathered all her remaining energy. She rushed up the stairs until her foot stumbled on the last one.
"AHHH!" The azure sky blurred as she fell to greet the ground with her face. THIS IS HOW I DIE! she thought as she braced herself for impact.
Hugh managed to grab her arm before she fell.
Mei got up slowly; one hand on Hugh's sleeve and the other one on her racing heart. "T-T-Thanks…" she murmured shakily.
"Tch. I didn't do it for you. Anyways, look."
Mei looked up to see a blonde girl slouched against the metal railings of the balcony. She wore a fluffy orange jacket, vibrant red rimmed glasses and most importantly...
A big green hat perched upon her head.
"Ah you found Bianca!" Mei whispered excitedly. She couldn't help but wonder what Bianca was thinking when she put on that hat. It looked quite... goofy.
"What? No, look above Bianca."
Mei did exactly what Hugh told her and looked up. What she saw took her breath away.
The azure blue sky was dotted with small wispy clouds. In the far distance were tall vast mountains as far as the eye could see. Closer to the three was a forest with tall trees with green leaves swaying around in the gentle wind. In the middle of the forest was a blue lake with calm water surrounded by bright flowers.
"Hermit, go wake up Bianca and get your pokemon!" He took a Pokeball out of the white bag around his waist. He spun it around on his pointer finger and smirked." Then I'll battle you."
Mei nodded and spun around, running towards the blonde. Her foot tripped on the concrete, making her awkwardly stumble around. Somehow, her foot managed to kick the sleeping girl in the arm.
Bianca yelped and woke up with a jolt, making her red framed glasses fall off. She picked them up and adjusted them back onto the bridge of her nose.
Mei gasped and bowed her head. "I'm so sorry!"
Bianca laughed half-heartily and patted her jacket. "It's okay! I'm wearing a thick jacket so it didn't hurt that much. Are you Mei?"
Mei brought her head back up and nodded vigorously.
Bianca smiled at the girl and got up from the ground."Sorry I fell asleep, I was waiting for a while and I guess I dozed off!" She bent down and picked up a metallic cylinder object. "In here is where you're going to get your first pokemon!" she explained and opened the object.
Mei gawked in amazement at the three round shiny red and white Pokeballs. Inside the transparent red material of the Pokeball, she could see a green snake-like pokemon with red eyes staring back at her.
"What's this one?" she asked.
Bianca glanced down to where Mei was pointing."That's Snivy! She's a female and a grass-type."
The Pokeball next to the Snivy held a red and black pig-like pokemon, the same kind of pokemon as the one Hugh had. Mei didn't want the same pokemon as Hugh, so Tepig was definitely not the one she wanted.
Mei peered into the next one and made a strange high-pitched noise of confusion. The Pokeball was empty! Or maybe it was a new type of pokemon that was invisible?
Bianca seemed to sense Mei's confusion." Oshawott is on hold for someone else, so it isn't available."
"Then… I'll choose Snivy!" Mei said. The older girl nodded and handed her the Pokeball. Mei held it in her hands and stared at it in awe.
Bianca laughed and dug around in her bag. She pulled out a rectangular pink machine and handed it to Mei." That's a Pokedex. It tells you the names of pokemon you encounter!" She watched the brunette stuff the device into her handbag." Why don't you try summoning Snivy?"
"I watched Christoph do this," Mei said. She hurled the Pokeball high up in the air and yelled, "COME OUT SNIVY!" The Pokeball spun around before a blinding red light beamed out from it. Snivy materialized from the light and gracefully landed on the ground.
"Sniiii!" she said ,observing her new trainer. The human had a very goofy smile and strange hair. Snivy snorted in disdain and crossed her arms.
Mei squealed and scooped up Snivy in her arms and thanked Bianca. She turned around to the blue-haired boy who was staring blankly at the ground.
"Hugh! Look at this! My first pokemon!" Mei shouted and held out Snivy just like the scene in the where the Aipom held up the Shinx in the Luxray King.
Hugh looked up and stretched his arms. "Great! How long were you going to keep me waiting? Anyways let's battle!"
Before Mei could speak, Snivy wiggled her way out of her arms and ran towards Hugh. Snivy wrapped her arms around Hugh's legs and snuggled her head against it. "Mei, tell your Snivy to get off me!" Hugh shouted trying to pry the Snivy off his leg. The grass snake looked up with pout, hugging the boy's legs even tighter.
Mei walked over and bent down. "Snivy!"
Snivy ignored her.
Mei wrapped her arms around the grass snake."Time to come back!"
Snivy hissed at the girl and proceeded to smack the girl in the face with her tail. Mei's red cheeks stung with pain and she was momentarily frozen from shock while rubbing her face. She laughed nervously, glancing at Bianca and back at Snivy. The grass type gave her a quick smirk before continuing on with her crooning.
"Bianca! I think my pokemon is malfunctioning!" Mei yelled.
The blonde girl quickly appeared by their side. Her glasses glazed over as she studied Snivy. "Come down here boy."
The blue-haired boy slowly made his way down, careful not to sit on Snivy in the process. As soon as he bent down, Snivy let go of his legs and leapt onto his lap. She gazed at him before placing a peck on his lips.
There was a moment of stillness before Hugh quickly grabbed the Snivy and pushed it away from him. Dropping Snivy on the ground, he coughed and forcefully wiped his mouth, a fruitless attempt of trying to get rid of what just happened. That was his first kiss. His first kiss was stolen by a Pokemon. He breathed out through his nose and slowly looked up at Mei.
The girl stared at them like they had grown a thousand heads and were shooting rainbows from their eyes. "GAH! MY POKEMON IS MALFUNCTIONING! "
Bianca got up and shook her head. "Snivy is in love with Hugh. This is remarkable! I can't wait to tell professor Juniper about this!"
"What?! A Pokemon is in love with me? That's not remarkable!" Hugh protested, scooting away from the Snivy who was trying to kiss him again.
Mei zoned out as the two began talking and Hugh was handed his own Pokedex. Her Snivy was in love with Hugh?
Hugh is a tsundere(a parody of a type B. Look it up on Tv Tropes if you don't know what that means xD) in this if you couldn't tell. Also with the smacking, in the game I noticed he kind of punched his little sister in the beginning.
As you can probably tell, this will have SequelShipping and LiveCasterShipping(later on ) and some Hugh X Snivy! trololol.
pls review :D
