Harry Potter and the Kanto Adventure
Chapter 1
I promised another Pokémon adventure and here it is. Sorry it's a day late. I had planned to only post three chapters, but Chapter 3 ends rather abruptly as you'll see and I felt bad about ending there. So I wrote Chapter 4 as well.
We all know how poor Ash woke up late on the day of his Pokémon choosing. Gary gets Squirtle and the other two starter Pokémon were taken as well. In this story, it isn't Ash or Gary, but I hope you'll enjoy it just the same. In this one, the other two trainers who take the other two starter Pokémon will be the more concentrated on characters. Both should be well recognized I hope. They will be friend/rivals and maybe more later?
Harry Potter and Pokémon do not belong to me. The first segment is mostly from The Half-Blood Prince. Please read, review, and enjoy!
Ron eagerly gulped down the antidote noisily.
Harry and Slughorn watched him. For a moment, Ron beamed at them. Then, very slowly, his grin sagged and vanished, to be replaced by expression of utmost horror.
"Back to normal then?" asked Harry, grinning. Slughorn chuckled as Harry turned to his professor and added, "Thanks a lot, Professor."
"Don't mention it m'boy, don't mention it!" said Slughorn as Ron collapsed into a nearby armchair looking devastated.
"Pick-me-up, that's what he needs," Slughorn continued, now bustling over to a table loaded with drinks. "I've got butterbeer, wine, one last bottle of this oak-matured mead… hmm… meant to give that to Dumbledore for Christmas…. Ah well…" he shrugged. "He can't miss what he never had! Why don't we open it now and celebrate Mr. Weasley's birthday? Nothing like a fine spirit to chase away the pangs of disappointed love…"
He chortled again and Harry joined him. This was the first time Harry had found himself alone with Slughorn since his disastrous first attempt to extract the true memory form him. Perhaps if they got through enough of the oak-matured mead…
"There we are now, lads. A very happy birthday, Ralph…" said Slughorn only to subtley corrected by Harry, "Ron…"
Slughorn didn't miss a beat as he say, "Right, Ron. Of course it's Ron."
Ron smiled slightly that the professor was saying Happy Birthday to him, so he missed it when Harry took a large sip of the mead and swallowed it.
Ron was about to drink as well, when he noticed Harry's eyes pop open. Slughorn didn't seem to notice until Harry dropped the glass, which shattered, as he grabbed at his throat.
Harry half-rose from his chair and then crumpled, his extremities jerking uncontrollably. Foam was dribbling from his mouth, and his eyes continued to budge from their sockets.
Ron freaked out and grabbed the Professor's arm and shouted, "Professor! Do something!"
Slughorn was paralyzed with shock and didn't respond. Harry twitched and choked: his skin turning blue.
"But… what… how…" spluttered Professor Slughorn.
Harry knew that he was dying. He couldn't breathe and his throat was continuing to swell inward onto itself cutting off his air supply.
He vaguely heard Ron yelling that he was going to run for Madam Pomfrey before Harry's eyes closed and all he could see was black. Then, there was nothing.
Super-short start to my next Harry Potter/Pokémon crossover.
In case you didn't understand, yes Harry did just die from the poisoned mead from the 6th book. I don't think Ron would have remembered the Bezoar and Slughorn was freaking out too much. I assume seeing the Golden Boy dying would freak him out even more.
Now off to part 2. Please review! Thanks!
