Chapter 4

A forest of danger

Having arrived at Viridian City the first stop on the list was the Pokemon center and after getting his Pokemon healed Eren and Pikachu decided to take a walk around town as they were walking they ended up at a strange building so going inside they were greeted by receptionist behind the desk "hello there I'm sorry to tell you but the gym leader is out of town in Unova I think" she said with a smile.

"This is a Pokemon gym?" Eren asked now he had heard of gyms but had never seen one before after he finished she nodded "so do you know when he will be back?" he asked.

"He should be back in a few weeks so you'd be better just to keep travelling for a while but if you want to do some training you should go west of the city" she said while showing where it was on a map of the town and with that he left to go see the rest of the town and do some training.

Sometime later in the Unova Region a meeting was taking place in Castelia City between two men one looked to be in his 30s while the other was in his late 60s. "So how are things going in Kanto Giovanni?" the elderly man asked while taking a drink.

"Oh far better than I could have hoped through I did get sent word of a slight hiccup on route 1 by some kid with a Pikachu but I doubt he will be a problem Frank" Giovanni answered while taking a drink from his cup

Beside Frank a Raichu made a rather dangerous growl Frank was about to say something when the door bursts open and little girl with a Pikachu come running in.

"grandpa Pichu evolved into Pikachu" said the small girl as she held a Pikachu in her hands.

"That's great Emily" said Frank as he was taking a look at the Pikachu Emily had went to stand in front of Giovanni.

"Hi Mr Giovanni" she said while looking up at him

"hi Emily it's been a while since I last saw you" while he speaking the Pikachu runs up and jumps onto her shoulder "your almost 9 now right" he asked giving Pikachu a pat on the head.

"No I'm ten in two weeks" Emily said while smiling "but I have to go now, come on Pika" and with that they ran out the room to who knows where.

After she was gone Giovanni began to speak again "it's been almost 5 years now hasn't it" and as he looked over he show the sad expression on the their faces and decide to change the subject.

A few days later in Viridian Forest "this place is a lot bigger than I thought " Eren said while taking a stop at a large tree "but Pikachu have you noticed how quiet it is" as Pikachu looked around he noticed just how big the trees were and how dark is was as the trees almost entirely covered the sky with little light beams shimmering through the small gaps which along with the lack of sound made the place seem very haunting.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH" or maybe not Pikachu thought as him and Eren turned to the source of the scream and heard the voice again "BLUE, GREEN HELP ME" after hearing this they both realised who it was.

"Yellow" Eren said as he began to run towards the screaming with Pikachu close behind him and when they got there Yellow was backed up against a tree with some powerful and anger looking Pokemon walking towards her and Eren without thinking ran between her and the Pokemon "Yellow run just run" Eren yelled as he and Pikachu looked ready to fight Yellow tried to argue but Eren didn't budge so Yellow ran as fast as she could after she was gone Eren was about to run as well when he shaw some of them were going after a Bulbasaurs who was protecting a Caterpie now he could make the smart decision and run away or he could do the right thing and try to help but he knew that he would have to make that decision now.

Yellow was running she didn't how far of how long she had been running for but she knew she would have to stop soon but before she could make a decision she ran into something at first she was terrified that it was another angry Pokemon but once she got a look at the thing in front of her she saw it was someone she knew "Yellow what happened to you why are you running" green asked with a worried look on her face.

Yellow who was out of breath could only get out a few words "Eren ... saved ... me" Green gave yellow a confused look.

Blue had also been standing there asked "what do you mean Eren saved you, saved you from what" but before Yellow could answer they heard a roar for the distance and as they looked up and saw a person running towards them with something green in their arms and a yellow blur running alongside them but as they got closer they saw that it was Eren but there hearts sank when they saw what was behind him "EVERYONE RUN" Blue yelled as the Pokemon threw a log that barely missed Eren after which he throw pokeball in the air letting a Pidgey and telling it to find help.

After running for a while the Pokemon showed no signs of being tired the same could not be said for them "maybe we should climb a tree" Yellow said fear clearly evident in her voice.

"We'll never get up one in time" Green said starting to fall behind.

"No Yellows right, you guys try to climb a tree I'll try to keep it occupied" Eren said handing Blue the Bulbasaur and Caterpie.

"Eren you can't there's no knowing what it will do to you" Yellow said trying to grab his hand but it was too late he had already ran straight towards the Pokemon.

While Eren was keeping the Pokemon occupied the others climbed the tree but before Pikachu had a chance to climb up Eren trips over a tree branch falling to the ground but as the Pokemon moves towards Eren, Pikachu uses quick attack on it knocking it off it's balances and as he ran towards Eren they saw a figure running towards them from the distance "Golem use rollout" after hearing this a Golem starts to roll towards the Pokemon sending it flying back through some trees "com on we have to hurry it won't be down for long" the figure said as he helped the others down from the tree, after they were all down the figure led them out of the forest.

Once they were out they got their first good look at their rescuer, ha was tall man about fifteen years old with dark brown hair "you kid's alright" he asked as they all nodded "well it's nice to meet you I'm Brock the Pewter City gym leader" after saying this he began to walk away but before he left he gave them some advice 'I wouldn't go back in there if I were you,things like that have been happen a lot lately but the authorities don't want to do anything about it" and with that he walked off to Pewter City.

They all stood there in silence for what seemed like hours but the silence was broken by the sound of a bag being opened and as they turn around they see the Bulbasaur rummaging through Erens bag but before they can do anything the Blubasuar takes out two pokeballs give one to Caterpie before before presenting the ball agent it own head with Caterpie following suit " well I guess I got a Bulbasaur and Caterpie" Eren says with a slight bit of confusing while the others look on with disbelief.

Meanwhile two people can be seen sitting at a table having a discourse "so do we have our candidate" the tall one askes while taking a drink from his cup.

"Yes he fits our needs and I have the prototype of the serum ready to use thanks to our associate in the Aether Foundation " said the smaller one as he takes something from his pocket and shows it to the other man.

"Good but we should wait before we use it after all we only get one shout at this and he is the only wild card, is it the one with the Pikachu" he asks as the other nodes "good this is going better than I could had hoped" he say while placing a file on the table.

(I'm thinking of changing the name to something like project evolution the kanto journeys or something so some suggesting's would be helpful)
