Awakening in Glacidea lake
In a faraway place, in an unknown time, where only an infinite emptiness can be seen… An entity awakens…
Without a body, only is essence is perceived in such this place. Small and weak, yet so full of potential and with quite a bright future.
"Where I am? What is this place?" The entity ask with fear in its voice. In that sea of darkness, no answers are hear… only silence.
"Is anybody there?" It ask again, same result…
however… After some seconds of unbearable silence a voice breaks the solitude of the place. Is A strong voice, yet polite and gentle. A voice so deep that it carves deep in the soul.
"At last you have arrived. My time is limited; our meeting should be a brief one."
The inquisitive nature of the small entity asks "Who are you?!"..
The great voice didn't answer. Instead a bright light started to shine and filled all the darkness reveling two giant purple pearls that soon became the shoulders of a giant dragon like creature.
Its main color was a very clear purplish more close to a light peach or pinkish. I had some dark purple marks that seems to be made of some kind of alloy, mixture between a metal and pearl. It had plates on its shoulder area, where two pink glowing pearls lie encrusted. From them an intense power was perceived, almost as if multiple universes converged within the giants pearls.
A powerful tail slowly waved moving to the side and two short wings seemed to be holding the huge creature floating in the space. A long neck extended to end on a feral draconian like head. Its face showed two dark red eyes that were quite terrifying and deep… but somehow… they showed a sad felling…
"You summoned me because you needed answers,.. but questions will have to wait..." It answered making a thoughtful pause steering directly to the little essence almost like searching throw his soul. After a long sight it continued.
"seems luck isn't on our side this time around, although destiny has a greater place for you in this world. Your help is most needed…" After saying that last words that keep echoing on the emptiness of that place, it soon started to fade and the brightness emanated from the dragon too.
"Wait!!! don't go.. please!!" The little essence yelled
"It is time! We will meet again... "
A pause on the creature sentence increased the anticipation on the little essence curiosity.
"old friend… "
It concluded leaving the essence alone in the darkness it was before…
With sadness the essence yelled calling for the creature to return, yet no answer was received only darkness and silence.
"Who was him? Who I am?"
It wondered carving on the little memories he had gathered on the short time it stayed on that… without any result.
Time felt like an eternity and only cold and loneliness was what the essence could feel. However time has no meaning on a place like that and only a few seconds passed since the chat with the purple draconic creature.
Suddenly a whisper cuts the silence…
"Help…."
the small whisper said.
"Help!!"
It repeats, this time more close and clear!
"HEEELP!!!"
It yells this time. and then again, only silence.
The essence was wandering of whom that voice could had been, and why was it calling for help. But its reflections were cut by something… something that changed.
By the first time in that place the small essence… started to fell… its new censes started to burn, its whole essence was changing… a new body was coming from within the now glowing bright essence…
Two legs formed with two big foots in the end. Three round fingers appeared and extended, and on its tip they felt like a suction cup. They also fell like that the three new fingers on its hand… and quite a weird new felling was now on his bottom and a big double tail formed. His body… changed its color still glowing but it could be seen by him even with all the light he could distinguish it… green….
All this new extremities and new formed body overloaded his censes with new weird fallings,and sensations … soon he collapsed and all turned pitch black… he fainted...
The sound of water and the blowing of the wind caressing his skin were new feelings he could sense. He realized he was laying on the grass feeling it under his naked back... NAKED?
It slowly opened its eyes. A blurry silhouette was standing in front of him, however to his new eyes was just a blurry shadow, barely recognizable. As he tried to focus and makes some sense on its head he suddenly felt a faint pain across its head. The little essence, now aware of its new body, slowly sited up and it started rubbing its head still keeping its eyes half closed
"heya there… are you okey kiddo??" The voice sounded nothing like the voice he had already heard from the giant creature or the scream for help,. It has a funny voice, yet sweet and kind, a female voice and for some reason sounded like ending its phrase with weird word or more like a cat like sound... "nyasu".
"yeah... I think... I'm fine." the essence answered realizing of his new voice. Which sounded nothing like he remembered or thought he did. I sounded young and kind of energetic, but a with a little kind of accent, not yet defined. still not an annoying voice ...
Trying now to gain some focus on his sight. It moved its head turning around and now with his eyes more used to the daylight surrounding him realizes of where he was.
A huge lake extends far wide on size. the sun light reflected on the water made it shine but not on a blinding way. The color was far from being a a usual blue color, it was kind of a mixture of purple, blue and white, similar to the water formed by big glaciers when they melt.
In the other coast from where there was a huge mountain formation that surrounded big portions of the lake. On top of it there were bast portions of white which seems to be snow and glaciers formations.. A vast pine forest extends on the lower part of the mountain and huge spots of purple, yellow, green and pink that seems to be beautiful fields of flowers.
"WoW!! this place is gorgeous!!" The only thing that the creature could say after watching such a sight, speechless by the view with his jaw almost in the ground..
"Yeah thats wha' everyone say when they see the Glacidea Lake. Niasu." paused "and seems tha' every grass type Pokémon really loves the sight, and end up with a expression just like yours , niasu" the girl said with a little giggle on its tone, creating a weird felling on the recently awaken guy...
"what do you mean with grass type Pokémon? I'm a human just like yo..." the essence said turning to face the "person" who he was talking too, only to realize that it wasn't a person at all but a Pokémon… a Meowth...
For a Meowth its looks was kind of different. First it was standing on hers two hind legs not like a normal meowth. She has no coin on his head instead a fuzzy tuft of fur hair. Only four of the usual six whiskers where present on her, the ones on his cheek. His eyes were also different from the usual bluish color of most meowth instead they were dark green. She was also wearing a brownish handkerchief on his neck with a symbol that kind of resemble a pokeball with two wings coming out of it. the knot of the handkerchief was kind of bulky and two long pieces of fabric came out it making it look more like a long scarf. It was carrying a very old and rusty green bag.
"HeY you´re a meowth!... a talking Meowth... but how???" the essence asked, a little jolted by the sight.
"well as if you'vent ever seen a talking pokémon in ur life mr treecko... nyasu" The meowth said frowning, and looking a little confused by the creature on the grass in front of her.
"What do you mean by Treecko? I already told you I'm a human..." moving it finger and pointing at the Meowth now seeing its green hand and bulky round finger. It stands up instantly looking at its hands then at his feet and his orange belly also realizing that he has a new moving extremity on his back a long green two leafed-tail
"Well u sure must have hit you head pretty harsh to think tha u'r a human, nyasa after all u were screaming quite a lot nyasara"
the meowth said holding its arms behind its head kind of resting... the treecko looked at her with a weird expresion on his eyes...
"i wasn't screaming for help..." it said
"wai... what? nya? if it wasn't u who wa..." the meowth was saying when was interrupted by a way over pitched scream!
"HEEELP!!" the scream said making the duo look at the direction from where the scream came from, bunch of pine trees, a small pine forest...
"well it seems it wasn't you after all nya" the female meowth said with a forced smile and immediately started running towards the pine forest at a very impressive speed for a pokémon that is most used to be seen running on four legs instead of two...
"Wait!!" said the treecko starting to follow the cat pokemon... "there is no way that i could run at that speed" thinked realizing that he already was almost dashing at a impressive speed feeling the grass under his feets "wait how is it even possible?" then he realized that he was sprinting along side the meowth... "so what do you think if i've give you a hand?" ended up
"uh, ok Nya" ansered the cat blushing a little and speeding up.
Soon the duo gots into the small pine forest and in no time they get to the source of the screams...
It was a small open area within the pine tree forest. Without any cover of trees all the area was very open and visible. The ground was dry and some spots were covered by sand, huge rocks boulders were scattered all over the place. In the center there was a Graveler holding a very scared Pichu by its head in one of its many hands. on its side was a small blue and red colored boombox...
"You'll be my new battery for my music box" the rock creature said to the small pale yellowish pichu, who was sacred shaking and tears drooped from its ayes... "please let me go, i dont like using so much electricity it hurts me"
"Hey You! let the kid GO!" the Treecko yells pointing straight to the Graveler standing in a kind of battle position! -"what i'm doing?"- it thinks -"that monster its going to crush me into pieces"- it starts to shake a little but it regain its confidence once the meowth puts it paw on its shoulder.
"Let the Pichu go..." said the feline pokemon now more serious and without its usual nya at the end of every sentence...
"Soo you came for my music box and my new battery i wont let you have THEM!!" the Graveler yells placing the Pichu near the boombox and fast tying the kid with a pair of white headphones...
"I will Crush you TWO!!" it saids rushing toward the treecko and the meowth using its trademark technique Roll out...
Both of the rescuers jump out of way avoiding the huge boulder pokemon strike, however as soon as it stops it turns to strike again....
"its attacks lose accuracy with each move, be ready to attack on the next strike... nya"
It took one second for the treecko to realize of an important fact... "what? wait i don't know any attack" said the treecko with a worried look on its face...
"just use ur " the girl answered, keeping its focus on the Graveler...
The Graveler attacked once again with its powerful move and the treecko avoided it by jumping to a side still keeping close placing one of its legs to the ground and with a fast twisting motion tries to hit the rock pokemon with its tail but it fails for just some centimeters...
"damn" the treecko said
A fast slash is heard and meowth hits the rock type monster with its claws using fury swipes... soon its grabbed by one of its legs and hit by a strong focus punch by the Graveler who is getting ready to deliver another blow...
"Not you Wont!!" the treecko yells holding its tail high after doing long and high jump and with the help of the gravity while falling it hits Graveler point blank on its head. Small pieces of rock exploded out of the impact and the rock pokemon was lunched various feets away by the impact.
Still conscious the Graveler sprinted back towards the treecko and tries to strike him using his focus punch, only to be avoided by the Treecko who jumps over the Graveler and once again using its tail hits him on its back. The graveler screams in pain but stills was standing strong
The rock typer got ready to deliver another rollout attack... and as soon as it was getting ready a blue shinny bubble ballon was flying towards him.. as soon as it hits a lot of water scattered all over the rock type pokemon soaking him up...
"ught!! AGHG!H" it screams in agony soaked and passing out..
"A water ballon?" the treecko asks...
"yeah kind of useful for rock type, ru nya" the Meowth answered...
"why don't you used that earlier?" the treecko asked a little annoyed
"we needed to weak him a little first, I wasn't really sure it would work that well actually hehehe, nya" said the feline scratching its head... the Treecko sweat dropped looking at the laughing, Meowth.
Soon they turned they attention towards the small Pichu whos exprecion changed drasticaly from the scared face it had while facing the Graveler to an incredible smile almost jaw dropped and huge big eyes. The Treecko kneels down to untie the small yellow electric pokémon. "well are you okay little fella?" the treecko asked
now the pichu looked up to the treecko and answered a little angrily "hey... i´m not Little!!!" it said and instantly standing up continued "and yeap i´m fine, thanks you guys" said the now more relaxed pichu.
the meowth now got herself close to the yellow pokémon, with her arms crossed stared down to see the small pichu directly to the eyes "Wahtsa u doing here Mike nya?" asked the meowth to the pichu who now looked a little ashamed.
"well i... I... actually was trying to help you gathering some Glacidea flowers for your mission" said the pichu looking down to de floor ashamed but then with a more optimistic tone looking up to the meowth's eyes continued "and that way I would win your apruval to join your team"
The meowth closed her eyes and sighted... "I already told you this before, ru nya" now the meowth was standing firm and straight holding his right paw up like about to give speech.
the pichu followed every word the meowth was saying almost as if he already knew the speech " U R still too young to join a rescue and exploration team... our missions are dangerous and need a lot of knowledge to do..." the Meowth and the Pichu said at unison, the first one proud and clear and the second sounding bored.
the pichu now crossed his paws and turned a little looking with a grin on its eyes... " and tell me Luna? did you know where to get the flowers?" to the Meowth
The cat was now surprised "ergh well.... you see..." it said bitting its tongue a little "of course i do know NYA... I'm a team leader after all" the meowth answered...
"where?" the pichu asked now more confident, seeming like trying to prove a point...
The meowth was now a little ashamed scratching the back of her head "well you see"
"you dint got any... did you?" the pichu continued now with his eyes closed and his arms crossed..
"Well nope, nya".... the meowth answered. the pichu sighted this time. He moved toward a small backoack that was laying on the ground near the boombox and out of it took out a peach pinkish flower
"see after all you need me on the team" the pichu said now with a evident happy expression on his face...
the meowth sweat dropped and looked to the ground sighting "will see... but that doesn't change the fact that you were beaten up by a graveler... nya..." the meowth answered notching the pichus head.
Soon the pichu and the meowth looked at the treecko who was standing next to the duo listening to the conversation, looking a little confused.
"Ok we need to get to the town right away" said getting close to the pichu and covering her mouth with his paw trying to avoid the treecko to listen "because this guy here must have hitted its head pretty bad cuz he think he is a human" told quietly...
"hey... i hear you!! quit saying that... i dint hit my head!!!" answered the treecko who now looked a little more annoyed... The pichu now looked at the green grass type with a curious expression...
"Oh nya... i should introduce us..." the meowth said looking at the treecko... "my name is Luna... L the Meowth training member of the Bluesky Rescue and Exploration Guild and on my way to becoming Team Leader soon" said standing kind of proudly waving its paw
"and my little friend here is Mike the Pichu" said stroking the pichu on its head... "Hi" the pichu said waving its left paw at the treecko! and then asked "and you are?"
The treecko looked like it was going to answer straight away however nothing came out... he was looking kind of worried and started to shake a little..."wait... my name... my name is..." paused now holding his head with his hands/paws... "whats my name? i dont remember... I cant remember..."
The Pichu and the meowth looked puzzled at the behavior of the odd treecko "what do you mean you dont remember your name??" The pichu asked the treecko shaked his head answering... "no i dont... i can barely remember anything! only that i used to be a human"
The Meowth looked at him... "so you don't remember nyathing at all? nya that awful ru nya" paused looking a little worried "but you should have a nick name after all unless you want us to call you treecko?"
The Treecko looked a little concerned about the fact of being called just treecko, he dint wanted that, besides considering it as a new start ho could choose a name now...
"a name?" it pondered. suddenly a wind blew caressing the treecko. the felling was confronting and nice... he thought of the wind and soon an image popped on it head, a memory yet a resent one. The speed he had while following meowth... he felt while he was running like if it were part of the wind one with the wind.... and then a word appeared on his mind
"KAZE!...". he soon realized... "thats it... that's a good name... Kaze... no better just call me Kaz ok!" the treecko said now felling a little better of having a name of his own a not needing to be called treecko.
"Hey thats a nice name" Mike said and Luna nodded.
"Well… enough talk already we need to get going back to the town we can continue talking on the way back!" Luna finally said starting to walk away to the pine Forrest exits and was followed by Mike and Kaz.
And soon the group of Pokémon faded into the depth of the pine tree forest going back throw the same path they came in.
