I don't own pokemon ,but I do own this story.
I want to let you know what you read before was the prologue and pokemon WILL be in it. Just wanted to make that clear. And there will be other things in it that are not pokemon ,but hey its my story. And its rated teen for a reason. Now that out of the way. Let begin.
Summer's P.O.V
Voices of people I killed in the past. Their bloody scream and cries fill my head as I trash around in my bed trying to sleep. Every time I close my eyes I see the decaying bodies of my victims. There would be no eyes and blood would fall down staining their blackish reddish skin. Rotting flesh falls down its body and torn clothing. Bony hands and arms giving them an undead appearance. They would stare at me wanting nothing ,but to kill me. I regret what I had done and the past comes back to hunt me each time. I feel something around my neck cutting off my air supple. I open my eyes to see a decaying man with his face half blown off as bits of his brains dripping down and a smirk forms forms on his undamaged face. I try to move ,but I notice the man wasn't alone. Two more grab my legs and the other two grab on to my arms preventing me from moving.
"You can't run away from us. No matter how far you are. You can't escape us. You took our life and now its time to pay back the favor" The unearthly voice bounds around within my skull. There nothing I could do ,but to await my death. I took their life and now they would take mine now. I deserve to to be killed after all I have done...Even I'm not safe from myself. One day she will break out of her cage and take over once more. Once I'm gone than she would be gone as well. As much as I want to deny the fact ,but I know its true. I'm a murder and a person who enjoy the sight of suffering. I hate it and yet she loves it. I'm too weak to go against her. A growl escape my throat and forcefully remove the hands around my neck. I mutters a few words before the spirits disappear. I look at my bed to see Pichu is sound asleep. Good they didn't attack him ,but it doesn't hurt to check. I carefully check if he hurt or not. A sigh of relief escapes my throat as I feel the cage that keeping her locked is getting weaker and weaker as time goes by. It still dark out and I can't sleep. I carefully climb out of my window making sure not to wake up my partner and sit on the roof of the house. My glance reach to the night sky with stars shining bright in the sky. So many things happened in the last three mouths and everyone treats me like a hero, but I'm no hero. One of the reasons why I became a pokemon ranger is to get away from my past and my father. He made me the way I am today a murder...I'm not safe and my father will find me. Looking back at my childhood...Let just say it wasn't the greatest. I never told anyone about it not even my friends. For a while I sit there listening to the Kricketot and the Kricketune as I look at the stars.
"I feel something big is going to happen" I'm sensing my dad is up to something ,but I'm not sure what. Knowing him it might be have to be ruler of the world or killing pokemon and humans alike. He not the most sane person out there. A sound of groaning catches my ears as I look down with the scent of death filled my nose. I gasp to see something I never thought I would see...Instead of my dad its an undead creature or other words a zombie. What made me worry the most is on its shirt has the symbol of a bloody human skull with darkish flames surrounds it. My dad manage to bring the dead back to life...This isn't a zombie shown in movies , more like black magic. Zombies don't eat human flesh like shown in the movies. They are slaves to anyone who anyone who bring them back and unlike the movie. The are fast and deadly too. They will kill anyone within their master's order. One more thing that everyone doesn't know about they are smart. I quickly climb back to my room and grab my black sword with golden markings. Not long before a sound of a bloody scream fills the air. It didn't take me long to realize it belong to Nema. At the corner of my eye I see Pichu waking up.
"What was that?" Pichu ask looking up at me with sleepy eyes.
"Its nothing go back to sleep" I reply biting inside of my cheek trying to sound normal. Satisfied with the answer Pichu falls back to sleep as I dash though the hall and downstairs into Nema's room. To find the same zombie for before cornering Nema and I yell with no fear in my voice " Why don't you pick on someone your own size!"
The creature turns around and grins "Well,well, well isn't this the knight of the dark coming to save a life of a worthless girl."
"Knight of the Dark?" Nema ask shaking with fear " What does it mean by that?"
"Oh she didn't tell you little girl?" The creature's grin turn wider with every word it spoke "Do you really know Summer? She been hiding things for you"
"I-Is that true?" Nema looks at me for answers ,but I remain silent.
I lift up my blade and stab its head off and before it could get back up. I shout as a dark aura surrounds me "To protect pokemon and people alike! I the knight of the dark shall banish you from the face of the earth!" I stab the creature once more before it disappears leaving a bloody mess. I turn to Nema to see her eyes widen in shock and fear.
"I-Is it gone?" Nema ask looking around rapidly as if she saw Giratina himself.
"Yes and hopefully it still gone" I calmly reply as I put the sword down and look at Nema "Did it hurt you?"
Nema shake her head as she try to stop shaking.
"Good" I start cleaning up the bloody mess with the help of Nema. I can't help ,but to wonder is how did Nema's scream wake up the others? I guess they are deep sleepers. Not sure I should be glad of it or not.
"I thought zombies aren't real and what is the knight of the dark? To me the Dark Knight sounds better." Nema ask as we finish off the remaining blood.
"They're real as they can ever be. Have you heard the legend of the-" I stop myself remembering the promise I made.
"The legend of what?" Nema ask looking up at me with her blue eyes.
"Never mind and promise me you wouldn't tell anyone what you saw or heard" I stare at her with emotionless face and the only emotion show is seriousness.
"Summer why are you so secretive" Nema pouts as she cross her arms "You will have to answer my questions if you want me to keep it a secret."
"Fine ,but not all of them. I'm alright breaking the code I go by" I reply as I grab my sword and start heading back to my room "Go to sleep. I will answer most of your questions in the morning"
I remain silent as I carefully walk towards my room not to wake up Ben, Rand, and Leanne. On my way I hear the sound of 'ticking' bounding around the room. Knowing its from the clock I made my way into my room. I quickly hide the blade under my bed. Tried I climb under the covers of my bed letting my muscles to relax. I try to fight against my drowsiness not wanting to repeat the same dream. Hopefully Nema would forget what happened in the morning ,but something tells me its not. Failing to fight it off. Sleep finally overcomes me.
