A red haired boy ran, with two people following behind him. The boy wore a white mask, hiding their face from others. He kept running, from Cherrygrove Town to Route 29. After realizing where he was, the boy let out a Persian. He turned around, to see if he was still being followed.
"Those grunts are still chasing me." He commented, seeing a blur of two figures. He pointed towards a tree, his Persian attacked it and made it fall to the ground.
"Go." He commanded it, with coldness in his voice. The Persian obeyed, and ran away from their trainer.
"Now then, New Bark Town." The masked boy sighed, letting out a misty cloud. He began to run in the direction of New Bark Town.
Josuke woke up to be greeted by absolute darkness. 'Where am I?!' He thought to himself, confused about this. However his eyes adjusted to the darkness, eventually revealing to Josuke that he was in a lab. He grabbed onto the nearest thing to him, a table chair. He managed to pull himself up, getting up on his feet.
"H-How did I get here?" Josuke asked himself, trying to remember what happened. He could remember everything that happened in Morioh. 'Is this a Stand attack?!' Josuke panicked, looking around the room now. He tried summoning Crazy Diamond, but it didn't appear.
"Come out wherever you are, punk!" Josuke shouted out, he was greeted by empty air. The teenager was almost at his limit, he kicked the table he used to get up. He heard three items fall to the ground, by curiosity he went over to see what had fallen. When he did, he found three red and white colored balls lying on the ground.
"They were on the table, they fell down while I was getting upset….." Josuke said to himself, picking one of them up. As soon he did, he heard a creak. He looked at the lab's door, to see someone standing there.
"Leave." The person suggested, entering the lab. Josuke backed up, still holding the item in his hands. He noticed a few things about this person. First of all, they wore a mask and had red hair. They also wore black gloves and mainly black clothes.
"Get away!" Josuke yelled at him, holding out the item in front of him. When he did, the intruder stopped.
"Send it out, I dare you to." The intruder said, reaching into his pocket to have a similar ball. Josuke threw the ball at the intruder, instead of hitting them, a red beam was sent out. A small dark blue cat was sent out.
"What the…." Josuke said out loud, confused about this.
"Sneasel, good choice." The intruder said, returning his Pokeball into his pocket. Josuke looked back on them, he walked over to them, they didn't do anything. Once Josuke was close enough, he asked them a question.
"Who are you?" Josuke asked, trying not to sound harsh.
"Silver, now get your Sneasel and let's go. Perisan won't be able to hold them off for long. I'll need to get one as well..." Silver said, taking off the mask.
"W-What? What's a Sneasel and what are you talking about?!" Josuke asked, ignoring the Sneasel clinging onto his leg. Silver sighed, before answering Josuke.
"You're not from here, are you? I'll explain but we have to hurry, those two are probably coming so-" Silver was cut off, he was tackled onto the floor. Josuke backed away and looked to see who attacked the boy.
Two adults with black uniforms with a red colored 'R' grabbed the boy from off the ground. A purple bug with red eyes, stood next to one of the adults. The two of them finally acknowledged Josuke.
"Thanks for bringing the boy to us. How much money do you want, 1 million or 2 million?" One of them asked. Silver struggled around, trying to escape their grasp. Josuke was silent, still thinking of what he should do at the moment. He had just meet this kid a few minutes ago, but he was in danger.
"I'm not letting you Team Rockets get me!" Silver shouted, attempting to kick one of the grunts.
"We're sorry about this, kid. Don't worry, he won't continue to cause a issue anymore." The other grunt spoke to Josuke, covering Silver's mouth with their hand. Josuke sighed, ready for a battle.
"Let him go." Josuke said, clearly upset now. The two grunts looked at him, with widened eyes.
"What did you say?" One of the grunts asked, their Pokemon hissing at Josuke.
"Let Silver go now, or else I'll make you do it." Josuke repeated himself, his Sneasel let go of his leg now.
"Big shot we got here? He seems to be quite stubborn, if he loses we force him in Team Rocket." The grunt smirked.
Josuke looked down at his Sneasel, he nodded at it and it returned it back. 'I may not know what it is, but it seems friendly.' Josuke noted to himself, as the Sneasel hissed at the two Rocket grunts. The Venonat ran over to Sneasel, ready to attack it. Once it was close enough, Sneasel dodged its attack and scratched it back.
"Do it again?" Josuke said, with a bit of confusion. His Sneasel obeyed and attacked the Venonat once more. "That kid's gonna win at this point. Bring your Pokemon next, Bob. I'll get Silver to the boss." The grunt said, nodding over to his partner.
"Got it, R-" Bob was kicked swiftly in the ribs by Silver. He was let go, and he kicked the other grunt. The two grunts went down, being in pain. Silver looked over to Josuke, his Sneasel had already taken down the Venonat.
"Come on!" Silver shouted, leaving the lab. Josuke followed, not before picking up the Sneasel and running. Once he was outside, Silver grabbed his arm and ran. While doing so, Josuke noticed the whole town was covered in snow, even the buildings and trees were covered top to bottom with snow.
"Where are we?" Josuke asked Silver, the two now in Route 29. Silver looked back on him, while still running.
"Welcome to Johto, post Ice Age. Hope you enjoy your stay."
I was bored okay, now that being said I'll explain why Josuke has a Sneasel. This is a Apocalypse Locke, meaning that Josuke can't catch certain Pokemon. The apocalypse chosen was a ice age. Josuke can catch only Rock, Ice, Dark, Steel, and Ghost types in this story. Of course, they will be more soon.
