EDIT: This has been edited, adding the same structures like the later chapters. I added a few more words and the current breaks.
"Keep going, Naruto! Let your flames of youth burn strong!"
Despite the questionable phrase, the fists and open palms kept striking the logs with incredible vigour, agility and strength. Blonde hair kept swerving and blue eyes completely focused with drive as the strikes began to chip the log. In one final push, he cocked his fist back and, with immense power, swung his fist towards the log…
"RAAAAAAAAAH!"
SMASH!
… and broke the log in two. The splinters flew everywhere and the part that broke off flew in the air and landed in a 'thump'. It was almost as if time slowed down as the top half of the log flew to the side. Panting could be heard as the young blonde fighter struggled to stand. Sweat poured down his face, adorned with three whisker marks on his cheeks. Bandages on his hands were damaged, drenched with sweat and blood freely dripping. His karate robe was ruined beyond belief. After a few silent moments, his legs gave way and his eyes closed, but he felt himself caught. All he heard was soft, yet uplifting praise from his mentor and proud auras from his friends.
"You really have done it, Naruto, my student. I'm proud."
.o0o.
'It only felt like yesterday… like we were family. A real family… no neglecting… '
Black loose clothing flowed freely in the wind. A black-cloaked boy stood out at the top of a hill, the wind freely flowing in his face. His hands were outfitted with black fighting gloves and forearm warmers. Both of them were not moving, not twitching in the slightest movement, like they were waiting with anticipation. His feet were adorned in black combat books and leg warmers, planted firmly into the ground. His hair, dyed black, and his eyes, with red contacts, looked downwards into the rocky town up ahead. A sign nearby had the words that stated the city's name: "Pewter City".
"Chimchar, it's time! Are you ready!?" The boy called out from behind. He felt a small, but tough, hand touch my shoulder, then the full weight of the Chimp Pokemon. Black irises, a tuft of red fur and a round face, with a red flaming headband looked forward at the town with slight amazement. It has been a while since they reached civilization, and for good reason, too.
.o0o.
"Hah! Look at him! This little loser!"
"He can't even breathe fire! What kind of fire type is he if he can't use fire?!"
"It was fate that made him like this. A failure!"
A group of kids and Pokemon closed in on the Chimchar, the Chimp Pokemon. His black eyes had tears that ran down his cheeks. His big ears were dirty and a bit of blood came from its mouth. Its body were covered in bruises and stains of dirt. But the biggest eyebrow-raiser is the fact that there was no fire behind the Chimchar. Just a red mark and a small stub of a tail.
The Chimp Pokemon couldn't remember its past, but he knew that it was born with that defect. Ostracized from its family, hated by peers and Pokemon alike, he felt like a loner and wanted to discover why he was born like this... like a failure. Here he was, being fodder to the large crowd of kids and Pokemon. Being beaten up, insulted for its performance in battles, being drenched by Water Pokemon, and overall it was a virtual pariah to the kids. Perhaps… it should just give in… maybe it was a failur-.
"LEAVE IT ALONE!"
Its eyes shot up and felt a shadow cover him. All it saw was a boy, with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a red shirt and cargo pants, with his arms spread protectively around the Chimchar. Afterwards though, the Chimp blacked out.
.o0o.
Chimchar frowned at the memory of the past, as it brought back nightmares that could scar anybody's mentality. At the same time, the frown raised into a serene smile to its face as it could remember its first and only human friend and trainer. Its hands, wrapped in weighted bandages, gripped and tightened with excitement as it could finally prove its worth and existence. Its feet, also wrapped in weighted bandages tensed.
"Chim…" Chimchar murmured quietly. However, silence was the only response it got.
"Chimchar…" The boy's voice became deathly all of a sudden, which slightly confused and unnerved the Chimp.
"Char?"
"I said…" The boy's voice suddenly belted out, "ARE YOU READY, CHIMCHAR!?" The sudden rise of volume, vigour, character and youthful flames burst out of the boy.
"CHIM CHIMCHAAAR!" The Chimchar raised its voice as it yelled out its agreement, rather than shrieking back at the sudden change. It has waited for this, and so did its black-cloaked trainer.
"Great! Onwards to the Pewter City Gym, or my name isn't Naruto!" The blond, now known as Naruto, walked on towards civilization, with Chimchar, his best friend, on his shoulder.
Hello everyone! Irate here with another story. Could be a possible one-shot, but who knows? It IS "Just a thought".
Whoever was waiting for the next chapter of "A Road to One's Ideals", I'm sorry. It has been a long and arduous time, like work, uni, tutors, classes, and creating my own Let's Play! Keep an eye out for that! I'm not starting with a Pokemon game though, so don't get your hopes up.
I don't think anybody in this Pokemon x Naruto crossover story list ever done a story where the Pokemon sorta have the movesets and possibly the behaviour of the characters from Naruto. Also, you never see a fire Pokemon who cannot breathe fire in the anime innately (Don the Charizard does not count). Don't worry. Little Chimchar here (I won't name Pokemon) will have other means of attacking.
You can already tell that the Chimchar has the attitude and style of Rock Lee. I always saw a Rock Lee/Maito Gai persona in Infernape, especially in the anime. Plus Gai makes an appearance! Aren't you happy?
Anyway, we shall see if this will continue on! Happy Holidays!
