Title: The Silver Memories.

*********Silvers POV********

A young Growlithe was flung back onto the Grassed Plains.

"Ha! Stupid greystripe. How ya gonna survive if your not normal?

You'll just attract Humans anyway." an older, more muscular, blood

orange, black-eyed Arcanine named Plains Stalker said to me.

"Yeah. Maybe we should just kill her now. She'd let the position of

the pack away anyway, even if she didn't hunt." another voice said.

It was a middle aged Red and Black Arcanine, named Scar, due to the

stripe that resembled a scar on her face. She was also one of the

main bullies in the pack.

"Kill me and you take yourselves with you. You forget what I know." I

growled at Plains Stalker.

"Ooh is that a threat?" the Plains Stalker said with mock

seriousness. " I think I just soiled myself." he said again, to

roars, howls and yips of Lion-dog laughter. "Seriously, though. You

really think your freak of a father can help you now? What do you

know? Nothing. Its what you are, what you know, and what you shall

forever be. A nothing. Or we could make you something... like a

gyarados' dinner." He said menacingly to me.

----A few months later----

"Hey! Nothing! Go play with a hungry Gyarados!" Ever since that day

a few months ago, I became known as 'nothing'. I was a bit of a loner

anyway, but even my aunts ignored me. My mother had been captured a

few days before I was born, and after I escaped from my trainer, who

was only interested in selling me to the highest bidder, I found a

wild pack my mother said she belonged to. She gave me a lock of her

moulting hair, and gave me a vague location on where they should be.

I found the pack… but while I lived with them, I wished I hadn't.

-----A Year Later----

Alone. All alone. The pack had deserted me in the middle of the

night, maybe because there were a few trainers in the area, and I was

like a trainer magnet. A galloping Rapidash that didn't stop in time

to miss me had trampled me; I couldn't have dodged it, because I was

asleep. So I had 2 broken ribs, and a lot of bruises and was

bleeding. (I found out all this later) and was crawling along at a

shuckles pace, not caring who or what I passed to get to a cave I

knew about, to rest and be restored, or to live out my last hours. I

think the trainer that caught me when I was nearly dead called it

Silver Cave. Or something like that.

Anyway, I woke up 2 weeks later, in a white thing that penned me in. it was a bright

white, even brighter than me, where the sky should've been, a dull white all around

me, like a blind canyon, only with no apparent way to get out, this weird invisible

shield that I broke through on my third try, and a light blue colour underneath my

footpads. By then there was this horrible noise filling the air, and this human female,

dressed in something that was Snubbull Pink, and by her side a was Chansey.

"Oh, your awake" the Chansey said to me. I was surprised I could understand, as I'd

never talked to one before, just seen in passing.

"What am I doing here, and what is this place. Its so… weird." I ask the pink egg. My

back leg was starting to hurt, and one of my front paws was seeping red blood from

where the invisible shield had cut me.

"Here. Let me look at that," the chansey said kindly, and I tried not to limp too much

as I went over to her. "You were pretty messed up when your trainer brought you in

here." She used her Heal Bell technique, and my front paw was healed, and my back

leg wasn't hurting as much.

"But… I don't have a trainer anymore. I ran away from him a few days after my

mother gave birth to me. I've been living with my mothers old pack ever since… until

they deserted me. Why am I in here, anyway? I don't remember being hurt… just

going to sleep, and the next thing I know, I'm in here." I ask the chansey, edging

away from the human whenever she tried to come close.

"You were trampled by what looks like a Ponyta or Rapidash, more likely the latter,

your trainer brought you here, and you've been taken care of for the last 2 weeks. We

weren't sure when you'd wake up, but you must be strong – that stuff you broke

through is something nurse Joy here" chansey said, watching me edge away from her

once again "calls the 'unbreakable glass'. Not many things that humans make can

break it, and much less pokemon without using their special techniques." She said,

before looking at me funny. " You know nurse joy wont hurt you. She just wants to

make sure your leg is healing well."

"Really? I don't really like humans much. I was beaten up a lot by my old trainer, and

then was almost sold to this kid. My trainer's poliwrath said that the kid liked to

watch pokemon fight to the death. So, that night I ran away." I said quietly to the

Chansey.

"Not all humans are like that. Just give them another go. Your trainer seems to be

very nice, and his Pikachu really loves him. Most trainers are good, but, as you

experienced, there is always a flipside." The pink fluff ball said to me gently.

"If you say so…" I say dubiously to the chansey, and limp over to nurse joy.

"Good afternoon, growlithe." she said pleasantly. "Can I see your leg? To make sure

it's healing properly." She asks me. I limp a bit closer, so she can check it.

"Hmm… it's healing very well. You should be proud of yourself – not many

pokemon can survive being trampled by a galloping Rapidash." She looked at me

kindly. "Did you want to go and see your trainer?"

At those words, I start backing up, but Nurse Joy calls out to the human who wanted

to own me "She's' awake now, you can come in." I back up a bit more, and stand

beside Chansey, who strokes my fur comfortingly.

"Its' ok." She said, "You have noting to be afraid of. Just wait. Your trainer will be

kind to you. I just know it."

"If you say so…" I say quietly back to Chansey.

A yellow electric mouse walks into the room, and said happily, "Pika pika chu!"

which translates into "Nice to meet you! I hope your feeling better!" I just think to

myself, well, he didn't turn out to bad… what a nice Pikachu. If he's like his… no,

our, trainer is, then I have nothing to be afraid of. I take a little step forward, and

answer slowly

"Growlithe! Growl lithe growl!" which means "Thankyou, and its nice to meet you

too."

The Pikachu has this stupid grin on its face, and a male human walks into the "room",

as Chansey called it.

"So, all better?" the human asks me kindly. "You are one incredible pokemon. In fact,

I know someone who you should get along with quite well." And with that, another

pokemon walks into the room… a noctowl. But this noctowl was weird. He had a

greenish brown body, instead of a red brown body, and light brown wings instead of

dark brown wings. Then it registered in my brain. This noctowl was different just like

I was.

"Hi. Nice to meet you." I say in growlithe to the owl pokemon.

"Heyya. Nice to meet you as well. I see we have a few things in common." He cooed

softly back.

I turned my attention back onto the male trainer, just to see properly what my new

trainer looked like. He had black, messy hair, and was wearing an old, faded cap.

There were paw marks on his cap where the Pikachu most likely hung over his head.

He had brown eyes, and a weird smile on his face. He had a few burn marks on his

hands that looked like they were a charizards flamework, and a green jacket with a

black shirt, blue jeans and red shoes. He also had 28 little shiny things on his jacket.

(A/N: All the badges of Kant, Johto, Orange league and Hoenn) he looked very

trustworthy, and his pokemon were very well trained.

I decided that I would go with him, and walked up to him, limping a little.

"Growlithe! Growlithe growl. Lithe growlithe lithe. " I said to him. All the pokemon

just looked at me, a little shocked. Or I had just said to him, "My name is Greystripe,

but you can call me whatever you want. My father was a Chimecho and so, I can talk

telepathically to you if you want."

(A/N: If I don't write what the pokemon says, the translation will be in brackets after

it.)

"Pika…chu…pika… " (…Wow. That's…a different kind of greeting…)

Noctowl smiled at me, then said quietly, so only the pokemon could hear "so can I."

All us pokemon just looked at him.

"Well, that's good to know. I think I'll call you…. Silver…? Do you like that?" the

trainer asked me. I had the distinct feeling that he had missed the second half of what

I had said to him.

"Growl."(Fine to me) I said to him.

-----3 days later------

"Your pokemon are fit and healthy," Nurse Joy says to Ash, my new trainer. Pikachu

had told me that I was to be sent to a place called Littleroot Town, for his daughter, as

a present, and also so she could start her pokemon journey. I was a bit wary of that,

but, like I told myself, if Ash's daughter is as kind and caring as Ash is, I have

nothing to worry about. I walked into the neighbouring room with Ash and Pikachu,

and we said our goodbyes. Pikachu and I promised we'd meet again, and ash gave me

a piece of Charcoal to wear around my neck. Then he put me into a nice pokeball –

Pikachu called it a 'luxury ball' – it was really comfy inside. And the next thing I

knew, I was being thrown out of the luxury ball in a mass of white light, and behind

me was Hunter.

Ugh. Ten at night. I missed futurama… Waah! Anyway, all those out there who read

it liked it? Plz r&r – no flames plz. This is a loooong one! I'm onto my 4th a4 page –

the other chapters were about 1! Anyway, it explains a bit about Silvers life before

Hunter, and for the record, Hunter is 18, like me, and Silver is about 2. Some nasty

'person' stole my gold, 2 silver and crystal game paks with my GameBoy yesterday,

so I'm going to have to go either to Hoenn or Kanto. Not sure which one, suggestions,

opinions encouraged. Either way, Silver and Hunter will find a friend at the end of the

line. ? That's all from me for now, I'll get Silver and Hunter back to Elms lab

sometime in the next week - keep checking back, but then… Kanto or Hoenn?

Anyway – Cya! ?
