A/N- This is my first fic. Enjoy!
I do not own Pokemon or Walking Dead.
A 14 year old, raven-haired boy was running through the rain towards what was a research facility that sat on top of a hill on Pallet Street. He was wearing a red and white baseball cap with a green slash on it, blue jeans, a black t-shirt, and a blue vest above that. There were walking corpses that followed. Their flesh slipped off as they limped towards the boy, wanting to sink their sharp yellow teeth into his neck. Their eyes longing for some organs to feast on. The boy kept running as fast as he could until he got to the research lab.
"Where did these things come from? How are they even moving? I can see their organs falling out!" The raven haired boy thought to himself. "Hey! Mom!"
The boy ran and ran until he caught up to his mom, standing outside of the research facility sitting on the hill. One of the corpses ran up to them. They both screamed in terror. But all of a sudden, the corpse's head was cut in two, with a shovel going down the middle. The man holding it wore a lab coat, and he seemed to be about 60 years old. He then spoke to both of them.
"Delia! Ash! Are you two ok?!"
"We're fine. Thank you Samuel." Said the boy's, Ash, mother, Delia.
"Come inside. It's safe in here." The old man replied.
The mother and son walked into the laboratory, to see a boy with messy brown hair sitting in one of the revolving seats. He looked to be about the same age as Ash.
"Gary! What are you doing here?" Ash exclaimed.
"Nice to see you Ashy-boy. I'm just helping my grandpa around the lab with his experiments on those…things. We call them 'walkers'."
"Gary," began the old professor, Samuel, "I'm afraid they've won this world."
Gary just stood there, stunned.
"So this is how the world ends, huh?" He asked.
Samuel wiped away a tear that rolled down his eye. "I'm afraid so…"
"What's going on?" Asked Ash.
Gary sighed. "Grandpa, I think you should tell them."
"OK," Samuel began, "As you can see, the dead have started to come back to life. Scientists across the country have gathered up information on what we've decided to call 'walkers'. They come back to life due to a parasitic disease. The parasites feed upon the body, infecting it. After it becomes infected, then the moment it dies, it will turn into a lifeless corpse roaming the Earth to feed on human flesh. If a person is scratched or bit, the disease will spread throughout the body, killing it. We are unsure of why they decide to feed upon the living, but that doesn't matter right now. I've heard that there are other professors who know more about this disease than I do. Many of them living in cities like Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos. They can tell you about the disease."
Ash and Delia stood there in shock.
"And now it appears…" Samuel sighed, "…that they've taken over the world. It won't be long before everyone…" He stopped. Delia pulled Ash into a tight hug and began crying into his black hair. Samuel began to do the same thing with Gary. They stayed like this for a few moments, before they heard the moans of corpses pressing up against the window. They all gasped, and Samuel reached for his shovel. Gary took out a screw driver he had on a desk. Ash and Delia stayed put. The walkers broke through the glass and poured in, Gary and Samuel attempted to kill them, but it was no use. They went straight for Delia. She tried to move away, but it was too late. A walker sunk it's teeth into her arm. Gary ran up to it and stabbed it through the skull.
"We need to leave, Ash!" Gary screamed.
"I can't just leave her here!" Ash screamed back angrily.
"Ash…" Delia began, "I'll just put you all in danger. You have to leave. I'll just die anyways. It's too late. I lo-" Her head fell to the ground. Tears began to plummet down Ash's cheeks onto his mother's lifeless body. Then, there came a groan. The walker that was once a woman named Delia Ketchum now lunged at Ash, but before she could bite down, Ash grabbed it by its neck and held it there. He then gripped his hands as tight as they could go, as he put his fingers through her neck. He then began to punch the walker's head repeatedly, until the corpse was still. He cried through all of it. His tears mixed with the blood on his face, as they streamed down onto his mother.
"Goodbye…" Ash whimpered. He turned his head to realize that Samuel and Gary were still fighting off the walkers that came through. Ash jumped up to help, looking for anything he could use to beat the walkers. He reaches onto a desk to grab a pair of scissors. He sprinted to Gary as a walker fell on top of him. It drooled over Gary, but soon instead of saliva, blood fell on top of Gary, as the walker fell on top of him.
"Thanks, Ash"
Ash remained with an unreadable face. Gary didn't blame him. After what just happened he wouldn't expect anyone to look good. Samuel turned to both of them.
"We need to gather up supplies and hit the road. If I can reach other professors's and see what research they've conducted. Then, we could get one step closer to killing these undead sons of-"
"We get it gramps," muttered Gary, "I'll go pack. C'mon Ashy-boy."
Ash just stared into space, and looked over at what used to be his mother. How could this happen? Why did this happen? What caused this to happen? When would it end? Will it ever end? Is this the end of the human race, or is it the beginning of a new era?
