Yeah, the summary was cheesey, I know. ^_^;;; Anyway, this is a small
(SMALL?!) project that a friend and I have been working on for
about...four years now. That's a LONG time...anyway, this is the final
version of the fic that has been in the works for years. Please, enjoy.
Revolution
Prologue
Professor Orville slipped through the high double doors of knotty
pine. The circular office he entered was nearly devoid of furniture,
only a handful of whicker chairs and a large desk of the same white pine
graced the room. The crystal chandelier above glittered in the sunlight
that spilled from many windows and skylights. A breeze from an open
window caused the white curtains to billow, and rippled his deep violet
robes of office.
"We need to talk," he directed the statement to the elderly man
sitting at the window seat. Sorcerer Oak, known as Professor Oak to the
rest of the world, was currently having tea with Agatha, the Ghost
Mistress. At his entrance the Ghost Mistress stood, bowed slightly, and
made her exit. Sorcerer Oak stood himself, but refrained from bowing.
"Talk away," he said after a moment.
"It's nearly time, isn't it."
It wasn't a question. Sighing, Sorcerer Oak looked up to the
high vaulted ceiling. Large, six-pointed stars of the clearest crystal
incased in stone allowed sunlight to bathe the tiles of whitest marble
with its soft glow. The effect was stunning, the entire room seemed to
emanate a snowy purity.
After a few moments of contemplation, he looked back to Professor
Orville. "I don't like to think about it, but yes, it's nearly time,"
his brow furrowed. "Of course they might always be late bloomers."
"No, the late Head of Council assured me that the Awakening would
occur at this time," Orville said. "Do you think they should come
here?"
Sorcerer Oak shook his graying head. "No, let them enjoy what is
left of their childhood. However, it might be wise to gather them in one
place, particularly with those who already know."
"I'll make the proper arrangements," Orville seemed to be
satisfied with the suggestion. "Goodbye, Sorcerer Oak."
He turned with a swish of his robes and left the office the same
way he had come.
"Sam?" Agatha re-entered after the Head of Council left. She
placed one hand on his elbow. "Sam, what is it? Are you alright?"
"It's nearly time indeed." the Sorcerer turned to the window.
"Nearly time indeed."
I hope that caught your interest! Next chapter, Ash's conquest of the
Orange and Indigo leagues and his new best friend, can you guess who it
is? ^_^ Possibly some hints AAMR, even though the rest of the fic will
be strictly GAMR. By the way, this is based on the manga by Toshihiro
Ono rather than the anime, though a few of the anime characters may come
into play, there's so few characters in the manga! *sighs*
Alright, please review so I know your opinions!
