Chapter Two-The Journey Begins
--Pokemon World, New Bark Town, Firestone Home--
"Hey Kari, Tk it's time to wake up! You don't want to be late on the first day of your journey do you?" Patrica Firestone called up the stairs. It was the day that both Kari and Tk were setting out on their pokemon adventure, and their adoptive parents (after they had both been found in the forest with no past or memories), had taken the day off, Patrica from being the mayor of New Bark Town, and Robert who was a pokemon breeder, to say good-bye to their beloved children (adopted or not).
"One more minute!" Tk called down. However Kari got up and started to get dressed. Kari finished, and as an after-thought she attached a small tear-dropped shape device to her belt.
"Common Tk, we don't want to be late or all the pokemon will be gone." Kari pleaded. There was something familiar about that, but she couldn't put her finger on it. But then again her adoptive brother went through this routine every morning, so that could be it.
"Oh all right, I'm getting up, I'm getting up." Tk sat up and began to get ready for their journey. And also attaching a similar tear-dropped shape device to his belt.
"Lets see, camera check, food, check, sleeping bag and tent, check, poke-balls, check, fly-swatter, check." Kari went through a checklist of the items that they needed.
"Common kids, we should go now." Robert called up the stairs.
"Coming!" Both Kari and Tk rushed through the rest of their preparations and rushed down the steps.
--5 Minutes Later, Professor Elm's Lab--
"So are you ready Kari. Everything seems in order." Professor Elm looked up from Kari's brand-new pokemon training license, "Here's your pokedex, and these are the pokemon you can choose from." Professor Elm gestured towards a table which had three pokemon on it. "You can have either Chikorita, Totodile or Cindaquil."
"I think I'll start with Chikorita. Thank you Professor Elm."
"And now you Tk, everything's in order for you, here's your pokedex, and you can chose from Totodile or Cindaquil."
"I'll take Totodile professor. Thank you very much!"
"Well its time for you to leave, I wish you both luck on your pokemon journey."
"Good-bye Professor, good-bye Patrica, Robert!" And Tk and Kari left, heading towards Cherrygrove City.
--One Week ago, Hoenn Region, Team Aqua Headquarters--
"You want us to go to the Johto Region!" Jack and Hill looked at their boss Archie like he was crazy.
"Yes, I want you to go to Johto and prepare an advanced base, I want to expand our operations into both the Johto and Kanto regions, but first Johto. I also want you to be on the look out for a couple of legendary pokemon that are said to be in that region, namely Suicune and Latias."
"Yes, Sir"
--One Week ago, Hoenn Region, Team Magma Headquarters--
"You want us to go to the Johto Region!" Hogan and Christine looked at their boss Maxie like he was crazy.
"Yes, I want you to go to Johto and prepare an advanced base, I want to expand our operations into both the Johto and Kanto regions, but first Johto. I want to cut Aqua off from those regions, and to remove Team Rocket as a power, I also want you to be on the look out for a couple of legendary pokemon that are said to be in that region, namely Entei and Ho-oh. With them we could accomplish our goals quite handily."
--Now, New Bark Town--
"Common, Christine, keep up, I heard rumors that Ho-oh is supposedly somewhere near Ecruteak City."
" I'm coming, I'm coming, Hogan."
--Across the docks--
"Common Jack, Archie mentioned rumors that Suicune was somewhere near Ecruteak City."
"Don't worry, I'm coming Hill."
--2 Hours Later, Route , Between New Bark Town and Cherrygrove City--
Two small animals came up to Kari and Tk. "Nyaromon! Tokomon! What took you so long? I was worried you weren't coming." Kari called out when she saw them.
"Leave you, never." Nyaromon replied adamantly, "If we want to find out about ourselves it will be with you two."
"Yes, well it's not like we've learned much since the first time you came to us at night. I remember you gave us quite a shock."
--Flashback, 1 and an Half years ago (Six Months After Arriving), New Bark Town--
"Kari, Tk, you should be in bed!" Patrica called up the stairs in their house.
"Give me a minute!" Called Kari in the bathroom. Kari finished up, and went into Tk's room for a minute, so that they could have a quick talk.
"So how was your first day of school?" Tk asked Kari.
"It was fine, the girls are school don't seem to know what to make of me, but it was really weird during one of my classes?"
"Which one?"
"History, it just…"
"Felt wrong, I know, when I was in history myself, I heard everything the teacher said, but all of it just was… I don't know… Wrong, like I was expecting something else."
"Maybe it has something to do with our pasts, but what-" There was a loud banging noise at Tk's window. Tk rushed over and opened it, and two things rushed in, one looked like a white blob with pink cheeks and fangs, while the other looked like a green cat head with a green and purple tail.
"What are you, pokemon?" Kari asked, she knew she should be freighted, but strangely she felt that she knew the two, monsters, in front of her, and she also knew they weren't pokemon.
"No, but what's a pokemon?" The cat-head replied.
"Then what are you?"
"I don't know, I have no memories."
"No memories?" Tk asked, "Kari, do you think they might have something to do with our pasts? I feel that I know them, especially the little white one."
"Yes, I feel the same thing. I feel like I've know them a long time."
"Yes, neither of us have any memories, all we remember is waking up in a forest, with you two nearby, when some other humans came and carried you away. I don't know why, but I felt an overpowering urge to protect you. Are you Tk?" The white one answered.
"Yes, but why do you want to protect us? And who are you?"
"I am Tokomon, but I don't know why I have to protect you, Tk. I just have to."
"And what about you, are you here to protect me?" Kari asked the cat-head.
The cat-head nodded (I don't know how you do that when you are only head, but she did it), "My name is Nyaromon."
--Present--
"Yes, it's been nice having someone to talk to all this time." Kari told Nyaromon, "I don't know what I would do if it weren't for being able to talk to you and Tk. But would you like to meet our pokemon? I think it might be best to introduce you."
"I don't like the idea of being known to anyone but you, Kari, but if you must." Nyaromon replied.
"I think it might be best, we don't want to surprise them if they see you, and they might get protective." Kari pulled out a red and white sphere, "Go! Chikorita!" And a red beam emerged from the poke-ball and turned into a small green monster with a single large green leaf on its head. "Chickorita, I'd like you to meet my friend Nyaromon, who has been my friend for a few years. She's going to be traveling with us on our journey, so I thought you might like to meet her."
"Chikor!" Chikorita extended a vine in way of greeting.
"Pleased to meet you too." Nyaromon replied.
"Tk, maybe you should do the same thing?" Kari asked Tk.
"Maybe later, right now-." Tk started.
--One Minute Ago, Route , Left Side (off the path)--
So Hill, do you have a plan as to how to get a foothold in this region?" Jack asked Hill.
"You bet I do, Jack." Hill replied, "First we steal as many pokemon from this region as possible, and then use them to wipe out the local organizations and take their bases."
"Works for me." Jack stopped, listening, "I hear voices, it sounds like a few trainers. Let's start with them."
"Fine by me. Let's jump them."
--One Minute Ago, Route , Right Side (Off the Path) --
"So Hogan, do you have a plan yet?" Christine asked.
"Yes. We must first take as many pokemon as we can, stealing preferred, and then we capture the legendary pokemon and harness their power to wipe out any competing organizations and take over their bases." Hogan replied, obviously looking forward to it.
"That works for me, wait." Christine listened carefully, "It sounds like some trainers, shall we relive them of their pokemon?"
"Lets." And they got ready to jump the unsuspecting trainers.
(Author's Note: I fully intend to keep having Magma and Aqua mirror each other, and it is deliberately done that way. It won't happen all the time, but it will happen every now and then, but all the time in this particular chapter)
--Present, Route , Where Kari and Tk Are--
There were four people in from of Kari and Tk, the two on the left wore what looked like blue uniforms, with a large A printed on them, and the two on the right wore red uniforms with the letter M on them.
The ones on the left started chanting at the same time as the ones on the right, and it quickly became apparent they were chanting mottos. (AN: In the interest of legibility, the mottos are separate.)
The two on the left chanted this:
"Prepare for trouble, you're caught in our trap!"
"And make it double, you ain't seen nothing yet!"
"To extend the lands to prevent devastation!"
"To expand and conquer our nation!"
"To denounce the evils of Aqua and water!"
"To extend our reach across all the lands!"
"Hogan!"
"Christine!"
"Team Magma rocks the land at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"
"You've gotten that right!"
The two on the right chanted this:
"Prepare for trouble, you're caught in our trap!"
"And make it double, you ain't seen nothing yet!"
"To extend the seas to expand our right!"
"To the seas we control as is our right!"
"To denounce the evils of Magma and land!"
"To extend our reach across all the Seas!"
"Jack!"
"Hill!"
"Team Aqua shells the seas at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"
"You've gotten that right!"
Kari and Tk sweatdroped.
"Team Magma/Team Aqua, you're not supposed to be here!" Both teams cried at the same time.
"Hogan, you handle the Aqua losers, I'll take these trainer's pokemon." Christine ordered.
"Hey, we were going to steal those pokemon." Hill cried.
"Well you're going to have to fight for them!" Hogan yelled, "Go! Torkal and Machop!
"You're not playing fair! Go! Luvdisc and Mightyena!" Jack cried, "Hill I'll distract these Magma losers, you take the pokemon."
Hogan and Jack proceeded to fight it out with their pokemon while Hill and Christine menacingly approached Kari and Tk. "Go! Slugma and Geodude/ Magicarp and Wailmer!" The two threw four poke-balls into the air and the four called pokemon came out.
"Uh-oh, this is trouble. Kari we'd better fight them." Tk called, "Go! Totodile!"
"Agreed, we can't let them steal our pokemon, Chickorita are you ready?" Kari called.
And they proceeded to fight.
"Slugma, use ember on Chickorita/Wailmer, use body slam on Totodile!"
Both Kari and Tk called, "Totodile/Chickorita dodge!" Totodile was able to get out of the way of Wailmer, but Chickorita was too slow and got an ember attack straight in the face, causing it to be knocked out.
"Chickorita no!" Kari yelled. "Return!" And her pokemon was back in its poke-ball. "Tk, their too powerful!"
"No they aren't, Totodile, use bite on Wailmer!"
"Wailmer, use body slam!" This time Totodile wasn't fast enough to get out of the way, and got it full force, and was knocked out.
"Totodile!" Tk called. Both he and Kari were out of pokemon, there was nothing to stop either Team Magma, or Team Aqua from stealing their pokemon. Both Hill and Christine advanced rapidly, clearly moving to try and take the pokemon by force from both Kari and Tk.
But, all of a sudden Kari and Tk's tear-shape devices on their belts started glowing. And so did Tokomon and Nyaromon, who were held in Tk and Kari's hands, being dismissed by both Magma and Aqua as harmless dolls.
Tokomon DIGIVOLE TO- Patamon!
Tokomon was suddenly what looked almost like a large orange and white, something, with huge bat ears.
Nyaromon DIGIVOLVE TO- Salamon!
Nyaromon was what looked like a white puppy with a golden collar.
"Nyaromon! Are you ok?" Kari asked, letting go with surprise as her friend suddenly glowed and transformed.
"It's like they evolved! Is that you Tokomon?" Tk asked too.
"I'm Salamon now! Somehow I think you helped me do this, Kari."
"Two more pokemon won't make much of a difference to me!" Hill cried approaching.
"You want to bet!" Salamon walked up, "PUPPY HOWL!" She emitted a terrifying, high-pitched noise, which forced both Hill and Christine to back up into the battle between Jack and Hogan, which had stopped when both of them had been forced to cover their ears.
"Let's show you!" Patamon sucked in air, and let it out in one big bubble, "BUBBLE BOOM!" The air shot at the collected Teams Magma and Aqua, and sent them all shooting sky-ward, calling down. "Looks like Team Aqua's all wet/Looks like Team Magma's exploding!"
"Great job Salamon, Patamon!" Kari called down to her friends, "That was amazing!"
"Well, we told you we would protect you." Salamon replied, coming up to Kari and sitting down.
--Meanwhile, In the Real World--
"Huh!" Izzy woke up all of a sudden as his computer alerted him to something.
"A power surge! It matches Gatomon and Patamon's signatures!" Izzy called out looking at the screen. "I'd better let Matt and Tai know."
--Two Hours Later, The Pokemon World--
"Hey Kari look! It's Cherrygrove City!" Tk Called
"Yea! Were there!"
Author's Note: I'm looking for better Team Magma/Aqua mottos, if you have suggestions, please e-mail me. The next chapter will be up soon.
