CHAPTER 1: The "fallen "solution
"Grraaaah" yelled a black and blue being as he swung his sword
"Haaaah" yelled a grayish blue and black being as he swung back with his
In a black enclosed room the two fought
The two clashed blades over and over again with the blue and black sword wielder pushing the other one back. Then in a flash the black and blue being knocked the other beings sword away. He knocked him down, sheathed his sword and stomped down on the defeated grayish blue being's chest.
"You crossed the line, I warned you, that if you go after them again… I'd beat you to within an inch of your life" The black and blue one said
"[coughs] well then, what are you waiting for, finish me off" the fallen Grayish blue being said with a grin
"I'm not like the pokemon you control. All I'm going to do is see to it you are rightfully punished by all you have wronged." The blue and black being said then felt as a blade pierced through his leg, and the blue and black then began screamed in agony
"GAAAAAH" The black and Blue Being yelled in pain as he was forced to move away from the grayish blue one
In that moment the grayish blue one rolled over to his sword, and now wielding two he charged at the Blue and black being, with a fury of swings and lunges of the blades. The black and blue ones fur was coated in blood and had a dull dark red tint, with his blood matting it down. He was barely standing.
The dual blade wielder then sheathed one blade and the other one faded away just like it appeared
"You never should have let me live stupid" The grayish blue being said then kicked the bleeding one through a wall and the two were now outside on a strange platform. It's dark with storm clouds roaring, winds howling and thunder echoing across the platform. The bleeding fighter tried to move but was in agony, his wounds crying out for relief
"We've been through this time and time again. [Kicks the being across the platform] In the end it we always come to the same conclusion, you being too weak to finish me. [Kicks the being to the edge of the platform]."
"[Coughs and groans]" the blue and black being was in excruciating agony as his wound burned and grew. Like a blade was still slowly sawing into his flesh.
"[Grabs the black and blue being by the throat] this is the 10th time we've had a showdown like this and sadly for you it's our last. You have been a thorn in my side for as long as I can remember and now… I'm going to enjoy watching you die" the grayish blue and black being said as he strengthen his grip on the beaten fighters' throat
Then out of the blues a bolt of lightning struck the two. The bleeding swordsman fell and the other one looked at his hand which wasn't even scratched. He then looked over the edge and saw him falling.
"Goodbye Sly, My dear frater"
The creature now known as Sly plummeted to earth with only one thought before hitting the ground
([weakly] I'm ... sorry … I… failed) Sly then blacked out and impacted with the ground
The next day
The sun just peaking over the sea as it shined over Chinook with light. The citizens of the town all began to awaken to a peaceful morning, although one citizen was up before them. That was a young girl on a walk through the fields gathering berries for her home.
"These will do nicely "the girl said picking some leppa berries.
The girl was about to go home when something caught her eye
"What's that?" she said
The girl walked up to the object of her curiosity, but once she got to the clearing she looked in utter shock
(What happened here) she thought as she got closer only to gasp. What she saw was a severely injured black and blue being lying motionless in the center of a crater.
(Oh dear is it … dead) she thought as she ran to the crater and slid down the side in till she was right next to the being.
(Who could be cruel enough to kill an innocent Riolu … it is a Riolu … right?) She wondered as the girl further examined him, she noticed that he did look like a Riolu, but was slightly taller with the appearance of it evolution Lucario, with some slight changes because he had crests on his hands, feet, and chest.
"I wonder what it feels like. "Out of curiosity she moved her hand out and touched his chest only to quickly pull it away when she felt a pulse.
(He's alive but what I do, if he doesn't get help soon he could die, oh but nurse Blissy is out of town, oh what do I do?" she panicked but then it hit her.
"Oh yeah I've collected tons of different items over the month and I'm pretty sure some of them are healing herbs." with that thought she used psychic to lift the Rilou gently out of the crater and walked through the field to the forest then kept moving in till she saw her home across a road.
"Hang in there we're almost there you'll be better soon" the girl carried the Rilou to her house which was fairly big. She then gently placed him on her couch, then ran and gathered all the supplies she needed and tended to the injured Stranger.
Ten minutes later
She returned to the Riolu and helped him drink the potion she made by using psychic. She was worried at first when it didn't work right, but was glad to see him slowly recovering, and was safe from any once fatal injury.
The next day
[Yawn] the girl covered her mouth as the sun came up she was up all night worried about the Rilou.
(why am I doing this I don't know him yet I feel like I should help him … and why can't I stop staring at him, if he wakes up and catches me doing this what would he think? he could think I'm an enemy and attack me) These thoughts were running through the girls head in till she saw the crest on his chest turn pink then back to white.
"What was that?" she got up and walked over to the Rilou and when she keeled down to look at the crest in his chest she was startled by
"What are doing?" Said a voice that made her fall backward on the floor. The Rilou began to get up and asked
"Hey are you o …. Argh" before he felt pain rush through his body causing him to lie back down.
"Easy you shouldn't move you were just on the brink of death and your body hasn't fully healed yet" the girl said
"Where am I?" he asked
"At my place I brought you here after I found you in that crater" the girl responded
"Crater, what crater?" the Riolu asked clueless with a hint of pain from speaking.
"Um … do you remember what happen to you?" she asked
"No" he said shaking his head
The girl was worried that his condition may have been worse than she expected
"Well do you remember your name?" she asked
The Riolu thought for a second before with a small smile said …
"Sly, my name is Sly"
The girl smiled and stood up
"Nice to meet you Sly, my names Kyra" said Kyra with a smile.
The Riolu now identified as Sly looked at her and smiled
"Likewise" Sly said
*Plink*
"Oh that's the mail. Hang on I'll be back, I'm going to go check the mailbox" Kyra said before walking away.
Just then Sly's head began to throb
(Ouch, why do I have a bad feeling?) Sly thought as he held his head
Outside Kyra's house
As Kyra was about to get to the mailbox she jumped back out of the way as a shadow ball hit her previous position.
"not too shabby reflexes for a stay at home weakling"? Said.
"Oh no not you again " Kyra said slightly nervous.
"Boys?" a large being Said and his gang started to chant.
"I'm a shadow, Gengar "
"I'm the spirit, Shuppet"
"To the other world, I'm Dusknoir "
"To despair I'm Houndoom"
"And I'm ruler of darkness, Darkrai "
"Together we are the dark five" they said in unison then struck a pose
"… Was that suppose to scare me or disgust me because you succeeded on the latter" Kyra said taking a step back
"Well we weren't looking for your approval" said Gengar.
"Then why show me huh?" Kyra said slowly getting more and more worried; she can't handle fighting 5 interlopers by herself
"Well we thought it would be nice to treat you to one final performance before we do you in" Darkrai said.
Then without warning
"NOW!" Darkrai yelled as they all used gravity on Kyra pushing her to the ground.
"Oh … no" Kyra said weakly wincing under the pressure.
"Now let's end this, this is payback for those two cocky friends of yours, boys "Darkrai said and with that they all started to charge a shadow ball. Kyra closed her eyes and prepared for the worst when suddenly …
"Leave her alone" Kyra opened her eyes to find Sly using his sword as a cane limping to her side
"If you want to get to Kyra, you have to go through me first"
The dark 5 looked on only to lose concentration of their shadow balls and burst out laughing.
"Go through you? Now that's not much of a challenge" Said the overly confident houndoom as he charged up a dark pulse only for it to disperse and in the blink of an eye houndoom fell with multiple cut wounds all over his body and standing next to his body was Sly holding his sword nonchalantly over his shoulder
"[Frighten] h-h-h-he just took down houndoom like he was nothing" Shuppet spoke before he froze to the words coming from behind him
"Maybe he was nothing … like you"
And with a gasp Shuppet too fell with multiple cut wounds, just like houndoom.
"We won't stand for …" Darkrai started before a blade appeared at his throat with an angry Riolu at the other end.
"Okay listen here and listen good, you are going to take your friends ,leave Kyra alone, and never come back here or I'll gut you like a magicarp, got it " Sly said menacingly with a wicked glare
Darkrai nodded then grabbed Shuppet and houndoom and ran away with Gengar and Dusknoir not far behind. With that Sly stood still and sheathed his sword.
As the gravity wore off Kyra stood up and looked at Sly standing there only to feel her face burn up.
(Why am I blushing, and why did he protect me, and how was he able to do that in his current condition?) Kyra was so caught up in her thoughts that when she finally acknowledged his presences she noticed he was only a few centimeters from her. She felt her face heat up even more so.
"Hey Kyra are you okay" Kyra couldn't say a thing so she simply nodded.
"Good heh heh "Sly laughed before he passed out
"SLY!"
Back at Kyra's place
"Sly I want to thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you, I don't think I'd be here right now. I'm glad I met you, and I'm sorry you had to fight in your condition, I owe you one" Kyra said with a faint smile.
"[starts to sit up] Hey, I'm glad to help and besides all I did was protect a friend" Sly said smiling.
"Friend? " Kyra asked
"We are friends right?" Sly asked
"Yes, we are friends" Kyra said smiling
Sly smiled back
After a minute
"Hey Sly"
"Hmm"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Uh Sure"
"Why do you carry a sword on your back, How were you able to move so fast when you took down houndoom and Shuppet, and how did you do it in your condition?" Kyra asked in a single breath
"Uhh "Sly said with a confused and overwhelmed look
"Oh, sorry, you must be tired and here I am pestering you after you saved my life" Kyra said
"Hey don't be sorry … actually I would like to know too. I'd also like to know where I'm from and how did I get here. Also … I'd like to find out who put me in the state you found me in, I want to know who did it and why" sly explained
"Hmmm, hey you want to find your memories right?" Kyra asked eyes wide with excitement
"Yeah"
"Then form an exploration team with me" she said smiling
"A what?" Sly asked tilting his head
"An Exploration team is a band of pokemon that travel around the world exploring dungeon, rescue other pokemon, capture bad guys, and discover ancient artifacts" she said almost awe struck
"Huh, where are you going with this?" he asked more confused than ever
"There are ancient relics that allows people to travel through time, astral-project, change abilities and I heard rumor of one that can steal peoples memories, my idea is that we could probably find one that can probably restore your memories" she said with a excitedly
"REALLY?!" sly exclaimed
"Yes really, Sly [grasps one of his paws in her hands} I wanted to create an exploration team since I was little. I promise you if you make a team with me then we will find a way to regain your memories" Kyra said with a calm yet serious expression
(hmm, if I join her I could get back my memories, I don't have much to begin with and it would be pretty dangerous to wander around with half a mind so I guess I should do the only reasonable thing)
"Well Kyra all I can say is … when do we start"
Kyra's face lit up like a star
"Tomorrow I'll send in an application, [hugs Sly] thank you Sly, you have no Idea how much this means to me, I promise we'll find a way to restore your memories and finally put your mind at ease" Kyra said
"That's great and all, but Kyra?"
"Yes"
"You're suffocating me" Sly strained to say as she was virtually crushing him
"Oh oh oh oh oh, sorry, I got carried away" Kyra exclaimed all flustered while Sly caught his breath
"Hehe no problem" Sly said with a chuckle
"Well I've humiliated myself for one night. Sleep well Sly, see ya in the morning" Kyra said as she moved up stairs
"Night" Sly responded before looking at the ceiling
(Well Sly, you now just have to find your memories and maybe figure out what happened) Sly thought as he closed his eyes
With the night about the two went to sleep after their long day but unknown to them there were people watching close by.
"So looks like Kyra's made a new friend" said cloaked figure one
"He doesn't seem very tough, should we attack "said cloaked figure two
"No, we wait for Kyra, then attack, but until then we mustn't interfere … yet" said cloaked figure one
