The Black Moon Chapter 2
I trotted to the outskirts of town; it was the dead of the night, so no one would notice me at the time. When I got to the outskirts of town I searched through the bushes around me until I got to my secret pile. When I finally found it I dug into it and dragged out the bag that was hidden there. I put this bag here filled with all the necessary needs to travel in case something required me to travel, and with my situation, it was pretty required, but from here on out, I'm going to be an Explorer!
I slung my bag onto my waist and turned back, my old hometown…I was gonna miss some factors of it, my Mom's garden, my favorite black tree in the nearby woods, the learning in school, and Evo, one of my first friends. My thoughts wandered very far into her, it was as if I could see her pink outline from here.
Wait.
I REALLY do see a pink outline from here.
And it's walking over to where I am.
….Wait, so that WASN'T a figment of my imagination!?
I hid into a nearby bush, and watched Evo, what was she doing in the outskirts?
"Errrm, this is the outskirts huh? Past that Swamp, I'll be able to go into the open." I heard Evo say to herself.
She turned around, "I'm sure gonna miss my hometown, the school, some of my buddies, that special little forest, and my friend Shiro too," Evo said.
"Wait, WHAT?!" I yelled as I jumped out of the bushes.
"Eek!" Evo exclaimed, startled.
"Uuuh," I stuttered, man I should've never jumped out like that.
"Oh! Shiro! What are you doing here?!" Evo exclaimed.
"I could ask the same to you," I replied.
"Huh? I'm uh…. Simply enjoying the outside here!" Evo said.
"Here? In the outskirts?" I asked her.
"Well, what are YOU doing here!?" Evo asked me.
"Me eh…uh, simply…enjoying the outside?" I said to her sheepishly.
Evo sighed, "Okay, how about this, on the count of 3 we'll both say what we're actually doing here," She said.
Huh? Should I really do this?
"1…"
Wait! Wait! I haven't even agreed!
"2…"
I'm not gonna say a thing NOT SAY A THING!
"3!"
"I'm going to leave to village to become an Explorer!" We both said in unison.
Eh?
"YOU'RE-!"
"Aaaaah, So that's why you're leaving," Evo said to me.
"…..Yeah," I replied. "Why are you leaving?"
"Hm! I'm tired of everybody there treating me like some kind of queen or something! It's annoying! So I'm leaving to show the world how strong this Pokemon can be!" Evo said with her head held high.
"Oh…." She has self-confidence, heh, lucky girl.
"So…mind if we travel together?" Evo asked me.
"What?" I asked her startled by the question.
"Traveling together would be more beneficial than traveling alone right? Besides, it'd be nice to have someone to talk and be around with on a trip, and we could form our own Exploration Team!" Evo exclaimed.
"…" I thought about it, that would be nice…, but no telling how things will go, after all, she never proved that she can fend for herself.
"….A test first," I told her.
"Hm?"
"I want to see if you can fight for yourself here," I said to her.
She looked over to me, and then smiled, "Alright! I accept!" she exclaimed and got into a battle pose.
I got into my battle pose as well and analyzed her.
We seemed to do nothing but stare at each other for a while, I looked into her eyes, it showed no hesitation but a simple long sparkly glowing look. Before I knew she moved, somewhere, then Slammed me down. I tried to push her off, but man it was tough! She had a strong hold on me!
I finally managed to get her off by sending a Shadow Ball to her, which she quickly dodged but jumped off of me.
"Tch, she's pretty good," I mumbled to myself, she seriously was good, lowering my guard with Leer and attacking me while it was down, and her eyes seemed to have a bigger affect on the skill too.
"Too right I am!" I heard her say, and then I felt something hit me out of nowhere. Evo seems to attack surprisingly and relentlessly.
I got up to charge at her, she shot a Psybeam at me but I dodged it by using a quick Dig. I burrowed under and waited for the right chance to attack. I waited, and waited, and waited in one spot to feel that one vibration that tells Evo's above me.
Then, at that one split second, I felt it, the vibration of someone above me, I jumped out as quick as possible and charged into the body above me, and slammed it on the ground,
Only to find out it was a small bush.
Then, I felt a psychic wave hit me from behind and fling me away, I hit the ground hard. I looked up to see Evo with a triumphant look.
"This isn't over!" I said as I dug back down.
I waited silently, and then I heard another vibration, I dug up as fast as possible and smash hard into whatever was there,
Which was another Log? What is she? A Pokemon Ninja?
I turned around to see her stifling a giggle.
"Grrrr," I growled and shot a Shadow Ball at her, not, I shot it at the ground to create a bunch of smoke, and then I tackled into her with all my might. I knew I came in contact with Evo when I heard her "Hhh!?" and then I shot one single Shadow Ball with all my might at her. She flew a little farther away from me from the impact.
When the smoke cleared I looked around for Evo, only to see her lying down on the ground. I ran over to her.
"Evo! Evo! Are you okay?! I might've token it a bit too far! I'm sorry if I did!" I yelled out to her as I ran. I looked over to her body. Okay, there are her legs, the torso, and the face…had a gleeful look with a tongue-sticking-out-fooling-smile. Then I realized what she was doing. She jumped up and slammed an Iron Tail down on me, and then I felt that familiar death-hold on me.
"Geez Shiro, way to treat a girl while you're battling her," She said to me as she let me go.
I grunted in response.
"So, I won the battle here, so, does that mean we can travel, and form an Exploration Team together?" Evo asked me.
I pondered a little while.
"Hey! I won the battle, so you have to keep your end of the deal!" Evo said.
I know, I know, no need to get your fur in a huddle.
"So…?"
"….Fine, but we have to register for an Official Exploration Team first," I told her.
"Yay! We're gonna have bunches of fun adventures together Shiro!" Evo exclaimed.
"You're sure of leaving? You'll be sacrificing a lot." I said to her.
Evo snorted, "Sacrificing? More like getting rid of weaknesses, besides I get to travel with someone who doesn't treat me like some pestered princess!" She said as she nudged me.
I sweatdropped when she said that, and wondered how the future would give in our journey.
Ryota: And that's chapter 2! So now Shiro and Evo are traveling together, ain't that great?! We've got more characters coming in soon! Stay tuned for the next chapter of The Black Moon and don't forget to Review, Fave, or Follow!
By the way, this story's gonna take a more logical turn on Pokemon Attacks, so most of all Pokemon Characters will have the basic-move set depending on how they move and look (Ex. Shiro is an Umbreon, so he'll have moves like Tackle, Scratch, Tail Whip etc. that are pretty usable without even knowing it)
