A/N: I'll discuss the changes to the characters at the end of the chapter, either way enjoy...
Chapter 1: Ice is Nice
The sun hit Mina Koki's eyes. That was when her Smoochum was shaking her. She opened her eye and realized what the day was.
"It's my birthday!" she cheered.
Mina was a girl with long blonde hair, she put a pink hair band in her hair, put on a blue shirt and a pink skirt.
She looked around…
"Oh right, I haven't gotten that backpack yet." Said Mina.
She ran downstairs to talk to her parents.
"Here's your bag." Said her mother.
Mina looked at the bag, which was a Spheal shaped backpack.
"This isn't the bag I wanted." Said Mina, "I wanted the one that was bigger on the inside!"
"I'm sorry I don't want to get you that bag." Said her mother, Rose.
"Why?" asked Mina.
"Because I know you'll just fill it with anime stuff." Said her mother.
Mina moaned, "Fine…"
Her father, Paul and his apprentice Beth came down stairs.
"Hey Mina, do you want to help feed the Pokémon one last time?" asked Beth.
"Sure!" said Mina.
Mina helped feed the rock types that Beth was raising.
Beth was 15 with long pink hair tied into a braid and sky blue eyes.
"I can't believe you're leaving." Said Beth.
"I know." Said Mina, "I've been waiting for this day for long…"
"What time are you leaving?" asked Beth.
"Don't know … it depends on when Maggie's getting here." Said Mina.
"That's good." Said Beth, "I wish I could travel with my best friends too."
Maggie was Mina's best friend. However she lives in Johto. Thankfully they made promise, when Mina turned 10 they would start their journey together.
"It might happen some day." Said Mina.
Beth smiled, "Maybe…" she answered.
After they were done feeding Mina looked around the town.
IT was a small town, Paul owned most of the land as he was a well known breeder. After a while she decided to head home to see if Maggie had arrived yet.
"No she hasn't." answered Rose.
"Oh…" mumbled Mina.
She decided to sit on the deck and wait, Smoochum showed up and began pouting.
"Oh sorry Smoochum, forgot about you." Said Mina.
Smoochum sat down.
"So waiting for my cousin?" asked a voice.
Mina looked up and jumped up, "YOU!" she yelled.
This was Peter, Mina's rival. They two hated each other.
"So looks like we're finally going to leave." Said Peter, who was boy with dark blue hair and hair slight shaved.
"You're 11. Said Mina, "Why are you leaving today or did you not to leave until I did…"
"You should talk." Mocked Peter.
"I just turned 10 today." Muttered Mina.
"Don't mind him." Said another voice.
Mina turned to see it was a boy a little older than Peter, he was tall and had dirty blonde hair. Mina began to blush.
"You know how Peter gets." Said the boy.
"Yeah…" said Mina still blushing.
This was Matt, he was 12 and Mina had a major crush on him. HE was also Peter's best friend.
They also made a promise to travel together.
"Well things don't change." Said a voice.
They turned to see a girl with short green hair on her shoulder was a Ralts.
"Maggie!" said Mina happily.
This was Maggie. Peter glared at her, it wasn't the fact he didn't like it, well that was a factor but they were also cousins.
"Look like that means we can leave now…" said Peter.
"Actually…" said Beth showing up, "You'll have to wait for a while."
"What? Why?" asked Mina.
"Don't worry, it will be worth it." Said Beth.
The four ended up playing Old Maid while Ralts and Smoochum played.
Maggie won every time.
"You're cheating!" yelled Peter.
"How would I cheat? I'm not able to look at your cards." Said Maggie.
"I know your cheating somehow!" yelled Peter.
That was when Beth showed up.
"It time." Said Beth, "But everyone wants to say good bye."
They went into the living room to find there was a party.
Along with all of their parents, there was also Mina's aunt Sonya and Peter's uncle Rob… who were married.
IT was a small town…
Mina aunt hugged her.
"Oh Mina! I'm going miss you do much! DON'T JOIN TEAM AQUA!" she cried.
Sonya's daughter Anne ran away years ago and joined Team Aqua.
"You won't either…" said Rob, "Right?"
"No… I won't." said Peter with a sweat drop.
"Come on this is a time to celebrate." Said Rose with a birthday cake.
Everyone in the room cheered.
The party got going the four leaving for their journeys said what they were planning to do.
"I'm going for the Pokémon edge." Boasted Peter.
"So am I." said Matt.
"I'm just interested in traveling around." Said Maggie.
"Me?" asked Mina, "I'm going to go around challenging trainers going to the Pokémon league."
They all stared at Mina.
"That's… an odd plan…" mumbled Sonia.
"Oh come! Do you know how hard it to get into the final tournament of the Pokémon League?" asked Mina, "I'm sure Peter won't be able to make it."
"What was that?" asked Peter.
"Come on, it's no time to fight." Said Peter father Steven.
"Today's a happy day." Said Sonia.
The kids nodded and smiled, today was the day they were all waiting for.
And so it was time for the four to leave on their Journey. They went to a fork in the road.
"We're going to heading to the closest gym while catching as many Pokémon as we can." Bragged Peter.
"Good luck with that." Said Maggie.
"Good luck with your journey." Said Mina to Matt.
"Thank you, and good luck to you too." Said Matt.
"Aren't you going to wish me luck?" asked Peter.
"Whatever…" responded Mina.
Peter gritted his teeth.
"Come on let's go." Said Maggie.
And so the two parted ways.
As Mina and Maggie were on their journey Mina decided to finally check her backpack.
"Why are you checking your backpack now?" asked Maggie.
"I need to see what my mom packed." Said Mina.
As she did, she found a book.
"That's strange." Said Mina, "I never owned this book."
Maggie laughed, "I snuck that in." she said.
"Really?" asked Mina, "Legend of the Pokémon Angels! Awesome! I've been wanting this!"
She began to read it.
"Mina, you might want to read that now." Said Maggie.
"Why?" asked Mina.
That was when she crashed into a tree.
"That's why…" said Maggie.
Smoochum and Ralts who were both the type of Pokémon who hung out of their Pokeball sighed.
Maggie had to put a band-aid on Mina's forehead
"You have to pay more attention where you're going." Said Maggie.
"I'll try." Said Mina.
As it turns out on that trail there was another group of trainers.
One was boy who looked 10, with black hair with a red baseball cap on his head. On his shoulder was a Pikachu. The second was a boy in his mid-teen, with dark brown hair and squinty eyes, the next was a girl with brown hair in a strange hair style, it was short in the back but long in the front and the last was a kid who wasn't old enough to be a Pokémon Trainer but traveled with them anyways.
The boy looked at the two.
"Hey…" he asked, "Is everything all right?"
"I'm fine, just crashed into a tree while reading a book." Said Mina.
"That's a little dumb." Said the girl.
"Them's fighting words." Muttered Mina as Smoochum jumped to her shoulder.
"What?" asked the girl.
"Mina… maybe you should see if she's going for the Pokémon League first." Said Maggie.
"Fine…" said Mina, "You going for the Pokémon League."
"No… I'm a coordinator." Said the girl putting up her hands.
"Oh… I was hopping to have my first real Pokémon battle today." Sighed Mina.
"What do you mean?" asked the little boy.
"I have my duty to battle every trainer I meet who wants to get badges and go for the Pokémon League." Said Mina.
"Really?" asked the boy, "That interesting."
"I try to be unique." Said Mina.
"I'm Ash Ketchum." Said the boy, "And I'm heading to the Pokémon League!"
"Min Koki." Said Mina, "And I take you want to battle?"
"You bet!" said Ash.
They were introduced to the other three, Brock (the teen), May (the girl) and Max (the younger boy).
"All right Ash! I should let you know that I raised Smoochum from an egg and she has moves that will shock you!" said Mina.
"Pikachu's no slouch either." Bragged Ash.
Maggie was feeling very uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?" asked May.
"Nothing! Nothing at all!" said Maggie suddenly getting defensive.
"That's strange." Thought May.
"All right!" said Brock acting as referee, "And begin!"
However before the battle could begin a net covered both Pikachu and Smoochum.
"What?" asked Mina?
"Prepare for Trouble!"
"And Make it Double!"
"To protect the world from devastation!"
"To unite the people within our nation!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To Extend the Reach to the Star Above!"
"Jessie!"
"James!"
"Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"
"Meowth! That's right!"
"Wobbuffet"
"What…" said Mina staring at the site before her. A man and a woman in a Meowth shaped hot air balloon with a Meowth and a Wobbuffet. He had reacted the net which held both Smoochum and Pikachu which hung from the bottom from their balloon.
""Team Rocket! I didn't thin they were in here in Hoenn!" said Maggie.
"Oh wow… someone knows about Team Rocket!" said the man who introduced himself as James.
"That's quite impressive here." Said the woman named Jessie.
"Acutely…" said Maggie, "I'm from Johto…"
"Oh… never mind…" said Jessie.
"Well we'll be seeing you." Said the Meowth who pressed a button.
The basket of the balloon gained to rocket jets and it began to fly away.
"Smoochum!" cried Mina.
All of them began to chaise after the balloon as fast as they could go. However during the chaise, Mina tripped on a fallen branch. But no one noticed.
Maggie stopped, "Wait!" she called out.
"What?" asked Ash.
"Two things!" said Maggie, "Mina's gone!"
"What?" asked May.
"You're right." Said Max.
"The other thing… do you have any flying types?" asked Maggie, "Because that would have worked better than run after them…"
Ash and May both sweat dropped.
"Great you forgot…" said Max.
Maggie sighed.
"I'm sorry Mina… but it was the only way…" thought Maggie.
Mina laid on the ground.
"No Smoochum…" she whispered.
That was when she began to glow sky blue, and memories that weren't her own filled her head.
The glow grew and went upwards into the sky.
With the group Ash let out his Taillow while May let out her Beauitfly.
However before they could do anything to stop the balloon, they saw the light.
"What is that." Said Max.
"I don't know…" said Ash.
The light began to shrink, they watched at the light turn into a young woman flying the air, with long sky blue hair wearing ice blue robes that a small amount of white fir trimming it. The strangest thing was the wings on her back.
"A woman?" asked May.
They watched as the strange woman flew over to the balloon.
She flew down to the net and used Ice Beam on it. Followed by Ice Punch smashing the net and catching the two Pokémon. She flew up the basket.
"You know not nice to steel other Pokémon? Right?" asked the mysterious woman.
"What are you?" asked James freaking out.
"Wrong Answer." Said the woman, "Icicle Spear!"
The lifecycles popped the balloon and it went flying.
"Team Rocket's blasting off again!"
Ice Angel laughed then descended to the forest.
On the ground below with the group.
"It couldn't be…" whispered Maggie.
"Huh?" asked Ash.
"That was a Pokémon Angel." Said Maggie.
"A Pokémon Angel?" asked Ash.
"Living embodiments that Pokémon and humans can live in peace. They disappeared many centuries ago, they were said to reborn as normal humans until they could reawaken." Explained Maggie, "That was Ice Angel, the one who protects all ice types."
"Oh wow…" said May.
"Do you think she'll give Pikachu back?" asked Ash.
"I'm sure of it." Said Maggie.
They headed to where Ice had landed, and they found Mina holding Pikachu and Smoochum.
"How did you get over here?" asked Ash.
"I found a short cut." Explained Mina, "Ice Angel gave me back Smoochum and Pikachu."
"I see." Said Ash, "How about that battle?"
"Not now… maybe another time." Said Mina, "All that running tired me out."
"Oh…" said Ash.
"It was nice meeting you all." Said Mina.
Mina began to walk away.
"Don't mind her, she's just going through some stuff." Said Maggie, "See you around."
Maggie ran over to catch up to Mina.
"That was weird." Said Max.
Ash couldn't help getting a strange feeling from those two… but he didn't know why.
As Maggie ran to catch up Ralts looked up at her.
"Sorry Ralts…" said Maggie, "But I had to…"
Mina on the other hand replayed what had happened in head.
(Flashback)
Mina stood up with the glow, that was when her hair grew longer and turned sky blue, she got taller, and her clothes turned into robes. That was when wings erupted from her back that was when the glow turned into the pillar of light.
She was Ice Angel and everything made since to her now…
Later after rescuing Pikachu and Smoochum and landing she turned back to being Mina.
"I'm Ice Angel…" she whispered.
Pikachu stared at her.
"You think you can keep it a secret?" she asked Pikachu.
Pikachu nodded.
"Good." Said Mina.
(End of Flashback)
Maggie had managed to catch up to Mina.
"You okay?" she asked.
"I'm fine… really." Responded Mina.
"I see…" said Maggie, "Let's set up camp."
That night Mina was the first to get to sleep.
"Today must have been too much for her…" said Maggie, "Should have known…"
Ralts and Smoochum who were still awake looked at her.
"Don't worry she'll be fine…" said Maggie, "And I'm sure she'll be better when she find out the truth about me…"
Both Pokémon nodded.
At the closest HQ of Team Aqua two agents were showing footage of what they found to Shelly.
"A Pokémon Angel?" asked Shelly.
"Yes… it's Ice Angel…" said the game agent who had red hair.
"I see." Said answered Shelly.
"According the legend she will be the first to awaken." Said the female agent.
"So you believe that you can harness their powers to control Pokémon?" asked Shelly.
"I believe we can." Said the male agents, "However if we do it will only be to lure out Water Angel."
"Very well Project Angel will be a back up plan to catch Kyorge." Said Shelly, "Remember, it's not that important to catch them… but it will help us."
"Right." Said both.
And so with Project Angel set up Mina was in danger, while the danger would be short lived it would be the start of the Journey to find the other Pokémon Angels… for the fate of the world…
Next Time: Mina hides the fact that she's Ice Angel to Maggie but Maggie's hiding something herself. This is all revealed until Anne shows up. What is she up to? Find out next time!
A/N: All right! Here's the obvious changes:
Mina: I decided to tone her Otaku levels substantially, she's still one but it will be rarely brought up. And I mean rarely...
Maggie: In Name Only from the original, she shares more in common with her Neo Pokémon Guardians version IE: her having a Ralts and other things which will be revealed in the next chapter.
Anne: Not brainwashed and her parents were never kidnapped.
Beth: She'll awaken much later in the story and much like Maggie has more in common with her Neo Pokémon Guardian version.
Peter and Matt: Not much changed...
The other Angels: Okay, I'm going to introduce them much slowly, I'm going to start out with five to make up a five man band... I won't say who will be in it or what will make them other than the fact Beth won't be in it. Also I will have Sammy and Akane join even though I never got them, however they were also in Neo Pokémon Guardians so it balances out... Flying Angel who will go unnamed will be lost forever... I will not go into details even if you ask...
Ash and the Gang: Won't appear as much and in fact I will out right say this, they will NEVER find out Ash is the Chosen One... well in the story at least... so yeah...
I hope you enjoy the changes and chapter two will be out tomorrow...
