LEGEND OF THE MER-MEW
By PinkScyther

DISCLAIMER: I own absolutely nothing in this fic except for me. At least, I sure hope I own myself...

This is a non-insane fic, in case you couldn't tell from the title. Pikachu13, Blue9Tiger and me are the main characters, 'coz I was too lazy to make some up... Nah, j/k I wanted to make a sane fic with them in it. Now why don't you just read it and save me the trouble of summarising...
Okay okay, it's about a race of Pokémon called the Mer-Mew, which are on the verge of extinction, unless three people can save them from the monster known as The Eater... Satisfied? Oh yeah, and one more thing: To save any confusion, I'm referring to Blue9Tiger as an 'it' because 'it' asked me to. 'Kay? Now, lets get on with our lives, and more importantly, reading my fic!


In the middle of the night, in the middle of a forest, in the middle of nowhere, Blue9Tiger walked aimlessly, hopelessly lost. Somewhere far off, a Noctowl hooted. The forest was alive with the soft sounds of nocturnal Pokémon feeding.
"Aah!" the Rocket cried, as it tripped over a rock. It sat up slowly, brushing dirt from it's uniform. Blue turned around and poked the rock with it's foot. To it's surprise the rock was soft and squashy.
"Jiggly!" it said. The rock then got to it's feet. As well as feet it had arms, pointed ears, a small mouth and huge green eyes.
"A Jigglypuff!" said Blue angrily. Annoyed, it kicked the Jigglypuff.
"Jigglyyyyyy!" she cried, and crashed into a tree.
From high in the branches came a cracking sound, and then a huge dead branch suddenly fell out of the tree.
"AAAAAH!" cried Blue9Tiger, diving out of the way. The branch barely missed it, instead landing on the stunned Jigglypuff. Blue got up out of the dirt for the second time, and looked at the Jigglypuff. She had been crushed. It turned to leave, when suddenly, "Jigglypuff!". Blue spun around to see the ghost of the Jigglypuff floating a few feet from it's face.
"You have killed a Jigglypuff. You have brought the Great Curse upon yourself!" she said, in English. "You will not escape the wrath of the Pokémon!"
Blue9Tiger turned and started running, away from the impossible scene. But the Jigglypuff's ghost caught hold of it, and suddenly, the forest disappeared and was replaced with the open sea. There was absolutely no land in sight, and the ghost suddenly let go of Blue. It fell, and landed in the water. Immediately, it struggled to swim to the surface. Blue9Tiger reached the surface, and suddenly caught sight of a reflection in the water, one that made it scream in terror.
The reflection was of a monster, like a giant Gyarados, with the head of a Scyther, the flippers of a Lapras, and on the two front flippers the scythes of a Scyther, and the wings of a Charizard.
Blue screamed again, when it realised the truth: the monster was it!
"Every full moon for all eternity, you will take on this form. You are now The Eater." said the Jigglypuff's ghost.
Blue's screams became roars, and it realised that it had no control over this body! Suddenly, Blue9Tiger dived under the water, swimming deeper and deeper. It swam into a deep crack in the ocean floor, and burst into a beautiful underwater world, filled with brightly coloured plants and corals.
It suddenly caught sight of some Pokémon it had never seen before.
They looked like bright pink Mew, but they had magenta coloured tails like Mermaids. Blue watched fascinated, as they played together. The scene was so perfect, it could have watched them forever.
"They are the legendary Mer-Mew. For centuries they have lived here together, away from all other life. They have no natural predators, and no human has ever seen one before." said the ghostly Jigglypuff from the surface.
With a shock, Blue realised that the body it was in was moving... It was going after the Mer-Mew!
It tried to stop itself, but it was no use. The Eater rushed towards the Mer-Mew, who swam off in terror. The Scyther-mouth opened, and tried to swallow a Mer-Mew.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" it screamed in it's mind. Luckily The Eater was too slow, and barely missed.
"Every full moon, you will change into this monster. You are destined to hunt the Mer-Mew to extinction..." said the ghost, before disappearing.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Blue tried to yell, but all that came out was the hideous roar.
***
A short distance away, a small, pink-white Pokémon had witnessed the entire scene. It flew off, desperately hoping that it could find the help needed to save it's cousins...


TO BE CONTINUED...

Bit short? Well it's only the start. I'm sure that absolutely NOBODY will figure out which Pokémon is the Mer-Mew's cousin... it's Ho-oh! It's Moltres! It's just SO hard! Well anyway, if you really are brain-dead enough to think it's Ho-oh or Moltres, I guess you'll have to wait for the next one to find out what it really is. Anyway, please review, and PLEASE leave your name... I accept anonymous reviews, but it's nice to know who likes it and who doesn't.
