Note: Before the chapter begins, I want to say a couple of things. First off, my upload rate will probably be once a week or two weeks. Secondly, I want to ask what you want to see me do in the future after I finish this story, which I am guessing to be around 16-20 chapters. Finally, there will be points of view in this story and each chapter will tell you which character's point of view it is from, I got the idea somewhat from the Heroes of Olympus series, if you want an idea of what it is like.
Disclaimer: I only own the OC's of the story, Nintendo owns Pokemon and the Sinnoh Region.
Now onto the story… Point of View, Nimbus
Nimbus knew he was quite strong in the Pokemon Universe. He could beat Heatran in a battle 6 or 7 times out of 10 and was able to hold his own against a lot of the legendaries. There was something else he was certain of. There was a Pokemon that was so powerful, that she could probably defeat him and 5 or 6 other legendaries with her eyes CLOSED! That Pokemon was Arceus, the Goddess and Creator of this world.
Nimbus had to seek Arceus' help to be able to beat the weird humans with the bowl cuts. He also knew that Arceus would probably ask him for something in return, most likely some form of entertainment. Nimbus sighed, he had visited the Goddess before, and it was not fun.
Nimbus was at Stark Mountain, and he knew the first step was to go back to the mainland of Sinnoh. Arceus was at Spear Pillar, at the end of Mount Coronet.
Nimbus looked back to see the looming mountain that was Stark Mountain. He had not been so far away from it for a while, and he still remembered the day that he first came here…
It was a stormy night, and Nimbus was sitting in a cave. He was worried and very sad, just sitting in the cave pondering his thoughts. Nimbus got up and went to the back of the cave. There was a Milotic, more beautiful to him than anything else. She was sick and on the verge of death.
Nimbus was devastated, and what frustrated him the most was he could not help her or do anything about it.
She had said, "Nimbus, don't worry, it should pass by, everyone has been sick before." She managed a weak smile, before breaking into a bout of coughing.
Nimbus clenched his fists and said to the sky, "Why, Arceus!" He then ran to the basin of water and wet the towel on Milotic's forehead. She had a strong fever and had a bad cough. She had been sick for almost 2 weeks and showing no sign of recovery.
At this point, the two of them had been dating for almost six months, and Milotic had wanted them to take a vacation to the Resort Area together. In the Resort Area she had gotten sick, and they were asked to leave for fear of spreading the disease. They were at a cave close by to the Resort Area.
Nimbus was getting tired, and decided that it would be healthy if they both tried to get some sleep. So they slept, but only a few hours later, Milotic awoke him. She looked sort of scared, as if something was wrong. Nimbus saw it in her eyes. "What's wrong?" he asked.
Milotic turned her head, not meeting his eyes and in a low voice said, "I am going to die tonight, I doubt I will see the sunrise. I wish to spend my last few hours with you."
Nimbus shook his head in denial and he said, "No, no there must be something I can do to help you. You can't die Milotic," he lowered his voice and turned her head towards him, "I love you." Tears streaked down his face, and they kissed. They hugged each other and stayed like that for 20 minutes before Milotic finally had the nerve to say something. "Nimbus, I don't want you to grief over me, move on with your life and find someone new, you are a great person. When you die later, come find me in the afterworld and we can hang out as old friends."
They both managed a smile, albeit a grim one. They hugged once again and could not let go. Milotic finally said, "I love you Nimbus, good bye." With a sad smile on her face, her head lolled and then all was silent. "Good bye Milotic," was all Nimbus could manage before bursting into tears as he hugged her dead body.
Nimbus had made a resolution then and there to have control over his emotions, so a thing like this would never happen. He was affected so deeply by her death it seemed like his world would end, he almost lost the will to live. After a couple of days of grieving he buried her body, and went to Stark Mountain to seek refuge.
Nimbus decided that he wanted to go back to where it all began, no matter how much it hurt him. He went back to the place where he buried Milotic.
Nimbus even dug up her body and sat there with her. "You are still as beautiful as they day that you died," he said and then reburied her. At Stark Mountain he became stronger and protected the weak so that nothing like this would ever happen to anyone else, nobody should have to suffer the way that he did.
After that experience, Nimbus just trudged along, having to make it to Fight Area to be able to take a ship to Snowpoint City. Nimbus kept walking until he heard screams, which at first did not sound like anything, but as he got closer they realized that the person was screaming "Help" so he ran towards the sound. There was a Weedle who had seemingly broken a leg, while a rock above was falling slowly, which was about to crush him.
Nimbus quickly ran over to the Weedle just as the rock fell and Nimbus broke the rock with his fist breaking it cleanly in two. Then he asked, "Are you OK? You should probably go home and get that leg fixed up before you continue to do anything else."
"Thank you so much, sir. I cannot repay you with anything that I own except for my gratitude," Weedle replied.
Nimbus continued along and started to develop a schedule. He would wake up in the morning at 5 AM and then watch the sunrise. Then he would depart camp at around 7 AM and stop for a light lunch at around noon. He would continue onwards and stop for the day at around 5 PM, eating dinner and making camp. He would then meditate and do some training before going to sleep.
After about 4 days at this place, Nimbus finally arrived at the Fight Area. He went to the Pokemon area, and asked the Roselia there for a ticket to Snowpoint City. She said, "Yes we have 4 tickets for Snowpoint City that leave today. Here you go."
Nimbus got onto the ship later that day and sat there as the ship pulled away from the port and the island just became a small black line in the horizon.
What do you think of the story so far? I know it is a little short compared to some other stories, but here is the story of Nimbus. Dead girlfriend, how will this affect his journey?
