This fanfic is rated M for strong language and violence.
I do not own Pokemon just the story and characters.
I love comments on how I could improve this story or just let me know what you think thank you and hope you enjoy this fanfic remember its my first ever fanfic so it may not be what your expecting sorry if its not, well hope you enjoy. And also I may not have the best grammar sorry ='/ when someone who is not storm is speaking I put their words in italics and quotations hope that makes it a little easier and once again sorry for my bad grammer. And when storm is thinking to himself his words are italics and are in parenthesis, ok now on to the story finally.
Chapter one: Good morning
"Storm get up your going to be late"! Ugh just a few more minutes mom! No! Get up now or ill have swift get you up! Swift is my mothers espeon, I don't think she would resort to force to get me up, would she? Next thing I know I'm floating up from my bed and unless I had just awoken some power I didn't know know I posses it was defiantly swift using psychic on me. "Swift put me down"! Sorry storm your mother wants you up, said swift. Next thing I know I'm floating towards the washroom, swift flicks on the shower using his psychic, I yell "NO SWIFT IM STILL CLOTHED!!" Swift just chuckles "sorry storm" and then he drops me in the water which is absolutely freezing! Swift now leaves the washroom still laughing his ass off and then my mother appears in the door with a big smile on her face. My mother is rather short about five foot even, deep jet black hair, piercing blue eyes, has both ears gauged to size 8s but they still look like normal earrings, and last she has a smile like no other.
"What's wrong storm you seem a little frustrated" my mom says while trying to restrain laughter. What's wrong?! You sent swift after me and he threw me in the shower still clothed and on top of that into freezing water!! And you simply ask what the hell's wrong?! Mymother just smiles and laughs then says "storm dear today you begin your Pokemon journey and you don't want to be late now do you?" I look at the clock, 6:40 A.M!! MOM! I don't have to be at the professor's lab until 8! "Yes dear I know but I wanted to spend time with you before you left and gave you a present or two" (she winked). Ugh OK mom at least leave so I can really take a shower this is still awkward even though I'm still dressed so please leave. She nods and turns to walk away but laughs over her shoulder and says "you know I've already seen what you have I did give you baths when you were younger which wasn't too long ago ha-ha." Oh shut it mom! We both laugh. I throw my soaking clothes in the hamper and flip the water to hot so I'm not freezing my nuts off anymore and get in. wow I can't believe today's the day I start my journey. I remember just a month ago watching the Pokemon league channel watching ash Ketchum win the league and now I start my own journey, at that thought my gut clenched a little with fear and excitement. What if I'm a failure? Or I get kidnapped by team rocket or those galactic nuts. My mother was an extremely gifted trainer and won 8 badges but had to retire the journey life to take care of my grandmother who passed away.
I take a deep breath and just let the hot water melt away the fear and pessimism. I jump out of the shower and slip on the puddle of water on the ground and have to grab on to the towel rack to save myself but that snapped to, FUCK I yelled. Great if this keeps up I'm going to have a rough day. I get dressed and look at myself in the mirror, my dark green eyes, also jet black hair pretty short always messy, goggles around my neck, bandanna on my wrist, normal black shirt and just normal jeans nothing impressive I laugh and say to myself never was never will be. It's about 7:05 now, I head downstairs into the kitchen mom has bacon and eggs ready for me (good mother) and also a few gifts I suppose for me, I sit down and begin scarfing my breakfast. Swift hops up into the chair adjacent from me and asks "well kid are you ready?" define ready I laugh back. "Don't worry kiddo you'll do fine you are your mothers kid and I'm sure your dad would have been a great trainer to if anyone knew him." (My dad…peaced out when I was 4 and no one's heard from him or have seen him, so I figured he's either dead or doing a damn good job of hiding himself from the world. I hear mom's footsteps coming down the stairs; she appears in the entrance way of the kitchen.
"Have a nice shower storm?" she says still trying to hold back laughter from swift's antics this morning. Oh yeah mom best shower ever ha-ha. "Wow storm I'm surprised the gifts are still wrapped ha-ha go ahead open your first one the big one." My eyes sparkle at the go ahead to open my gifts, I feel like its Christmas for the first time again. I tear through the wrapping and my eyes bestow upon my new belt to clip my pokeballs on, and some potions and antidotes. "Hope you like them" my mom says. I look at her and jump from my chair and give her a huge hug and say yes mom I love it thank you. You still got some more left storm go ahead. I turn to face the remaining gifts, two that are in perfect cube shape compared to the previous gift that was pretty badly wrapped and disproportionate. I hesitate and grab the first one still wondering to myself what could be inside, I slowly open it and it looks like a jewelry box. I open the container and inside is one of my mom's old gym badges, it's in the shape of a water droplet and engraved on it are the words "flow like water". I don't know how to respond to this gift, it's amazing I whisper, my mom simply nods and smiles.
I reach for the last gift, it's also in a cube shape, bigger though, and I carefully handle it and slowly open it, afraid to damage any contents inside. It's another box, I open it and I think my jaw must have dropped to the floor because my mom laughed and asked if I'm alright. It's the backpack I wanted off the Pokemon league website, the perfect backpack for all trainers! I jump into my mom's arm and give her a huge bear hug! Thank you thank you thank you I yell. She gently pushes me away and says "your welcome dear now here's a few tips for you before you go off. One don't challenge every single trainer you see at least until you get some more Pokemon on your belt, two don't let your Pokemon get low health and stay that way it's bad for the Pokemon and bad for you to, it makes you look like a noob if you can't take care of your own Pokemon. And three be safe and have fun, oh and here is a thousand poke dollars." Wow thanks mom, I take a quick glance at the clock and I still got 10 minutes before I have to be at the professors but its takes about 5 minutes and I like to be early, alright mom I think I better be going I say. My mom smiles and I can see the threat of tears in her eyes so I make the goodbye quick, a good meaningful goodbye hug and kiss and I'm off through the door.
