Okay, I've made another Chapter. I feel like writing anyway. I suppose Role-Playing has helped get rid Writer's Block. So, expect more. And stay tuned. I've sort of gotten better with my writing, and I waffle on about things. A lot. I had started the previous Chapter when this Story was still called 'Melanie: Suicune Tamer' so it needed redoing. But this Chapter will be pretty good to write. I mean, I am thinking up something already. I'll do it soon.
Anyway, here's Chapter 2.
Chapter 2- Allies and FriendsAvalon spun around and toddled over. Sitting down on her haunches, she rubbed her head with a paw.
::That was a bad idea…:: Avalon complained.
"You asked for it." Georgia smirked.
She grinned at the look of indignation in Avalon's eyes.
"Come off it. Can you heal the Pokemon?" Georgia walked over to Sparks and stroked him gently.
::I can. Just step aside.:: Avalon commanded.
Obediently, Georgia left Sparks. Pure blue light left the Suicune's diamond like a shooting star. It leapt through the cold morning air and twisted itself around Sparks, wrapping itself into a smooth healing cocoon. Gradually, the sore scars and hard gashes left the Pokemon's body. The light danced off Sparks and vanished, leaving the scent of fresh water.
"Rai?" Sparks croaked. It sat up and looked around.
::I can heal them all. But it will take time. Go to the cave and help yourself to the junk I have collected from foolish trainers. Take Sparks with you. I will come with the Pokemon later.:: She nodded towards a small hidden cleft in the steep cliff.
Nodding to Avalon, Georgia and Sparks dawdled along the faint track to the cliff face. It loomed above them, casting a black shadow over them. The shade was a relief to Georgia, because she was pale-skinned, she was not resistant to the Sun's stinging rays.
How does she get up there? Wondered Georgia, bewildered.
Sparks placed its furry front paws on the cliff's craggy surface. He seemed to be feeling around for a foothold, as he leapt up the cliff as easily as a Rapidash runs along a prairie. Using his hind legs as momentum, Sparks reached the cleft, and looked back down at Georgia, and burst out into sniggers.
"It isn't funny! I don't have such strong legs as you!" Georgia yelled.
She cautiously placed her palms on the cliff and felt around. There! Underneath her hands, she felt a sure and sturdy handhold. Wedging her left foot in the crack, she hesitantly felt around again. After an hour, in which Sparks fell asleep, Avalon healed the Pokemon, and Georgia struggled to gain altitude, Georgia finally reached the secluded den of the Legendary.
"Wake up Sparks." Georgia roughly shook the Raichu awake.
Sparks looked at Georgia in a reproachful way before getting to its large paws. Georgia slipped into the cave. The change in temperature was astounding. Georgia shivered. It had grown icy cold, the warm, fresh morning air becoming crisp and sharp, bitter even. The cave's craggy walls, identical to the cliff face, were strewn with small clusters of reflective crystals, each shooting back one of the small rays of sunlight that had fallen through the cave onto the first of the crystals. In a corner, a nest made from fur, leaves and feathers sat. Next to the nest was a stone shelf, holding a fair few Ultra Balls, a belt, and a jacket imprinted with a Pokeball. It also held a sharp tooth, hung from a leather thong. It was caked with dried…stuff. Georgia felt it was blood.
Shivering, she turned away. Opposite was a clear pool, flowing from a trickle in the wall. Down the bottom, Georgia could see lumps of clear sapphire. Over near the entrance were two large packs. They seemed to be brimming with items. Georgia supposed Avalon had taken them from two of the Pokemon Trainers she had battled. She left Sparks to drink out of the water, and crouched down over the packs. Just inside was a Trainer ID. It was slightly blurred, but she could make out spiky hair, and huge brown eyes. The text was illegible. Shuddering, she turned the ID card over. It wasn't so blurred, and she could make out 'Pokemon League Champion'. This person had been a League Champion! Georgia had overheard the crowd at the Circus speak about the League. Shrugging, she chucked the card out of the cave. Turning her attention away from the strange card, she looked inside the many fold of the backpack. In one of the pockets was a stack of magazines called 'The Trainer's Resource'. There were healing items, drugs, Pokeballs, the lot. Even a collapsible Bicycle!
The other bag was disappointing. The Pockets were almost empty, except for the Trainer ID, which was for a girl. She replaced the ID into the other backpack. She didn't have any ID for the moment, so this would have to do. She took out the various items, including a strange feather the colour silver. She pocketed the feather in the bag, and scavenged the last of the items. Picking up the pack, she carried it over to the shelf, and emptied the Ultra Balls, clipped on the belt, and slipped the jacket over her raggedy clothes.
I'll have to get some more. Georgia thought. She hitched the backpack up onto her shoulders, and picked up the tooth.
I'll wash this. Then I'll head back to Avalon. She treaded over to the pool, and dipped the tooth gingerly into the crystal clear water. It was as if it had been waiting for that moment. The blood fell away, and promptly vanished. The fang sparkled, and Georgia held it up, raising her eyebrows, impressed. She then slung the leather around her neck, and tucked the tooth under her clothes.
Calling to Sparks, Georgia left the cave. The burning circle was high in the sky, and Georgia's skin ached for shade.
Sparks looked around. Georgia was just wondering how to get down when Sparks leapt down the side of the cliff. In seconds, he had reached the bottom. Groaning loudly, Georgia picked her way down the cliff, wondering why Sparks hadn't taken this path earlier. She was just wishing that she had some of the leather pouches that others of her kind wore when she reached the end. The smooth grass was a relief from the sharp, stinging stones.
Georgia wondered mutely how she was going to make it, traveling around Johto with Pokemon. She was so deep in thought; she almost walked on top of Avalon.
::Hey! Watch it!:: Came Avalon's cry of indignation.
"Sorry Av." Georgia said mutely.
::You got the supplies from the cave? Catch the Circus Pokemon.:: Avalon nodded towards the huddle of scared Pokemon.
The crowd was of seven, very frightened, now healed Pokemon. A Lapras, a Ponyta, a Torchic, a Houndour, a Jolteon, an Umbreon, and a Mightyena. Approaching each one slowly, she captured them in the Ultra Balls, and tucked the spheres into the Pokeball Pouches, and on the belt. She hung the Crystal Pokeball off the belt also.
::A Human Boy comes. I must hide.:: Avalon returned her form to a white beam, and it whizzed back inside her Pokeball.
Quickly, Georgia returned Sparks to another Ultra Ball, and tried to scramble up a tree.
Too Late.
"Hello? I thought I heard voices…Oh." A boy came into view, looked around, and finally settled his eyes on Georgia.
"Um…Hi." He looked shyly at her from underneath his cap.
"Hello." Georgia looked sharply at him.
"M-My name is Jarred. What's your name?" Jarred asked.
"Georgia." Georgia said hesitantly.
"Hey!" Jarred exclaimed, spotting the Pokeballs on Georgia's waist. "You're a Trainer! 3 on 3 battle?"
"I really can't…"
"Come on! Don't be a wuss!" Jarred teased.
He had hit a nerve.
"Fine! Go ShadowSnap!" Georgia let out her Mightyena. She had thought up the nickname as a 'spur of the moment'.
"Go Scyther! Show that Mightyena!" Jarred threw a Park Ball onto the makeshift field. A Pokemon appeared, that looked a little like a Praying Mantis, that only had scythes instead of its stick like front feet.
"Scyyy!" Scyther screeched.
ShadowSnap snarled, exposing a large set of fangs. His eyes were bitter and cold towards Jarred, though you could still see that Georgia was his pride. He stood stock still, awaiting instructions from his mistress.
"Scyther! Use False Swipe!" Jarred commanded.
Scythe's scythes gleamed as he leapt forwards, ready to slash.
"ShadowSnap! Shadow Ball!" Georgia commanded.
ShadowSnap gathered a ball of pure darkness in his jaws. Just as Scyther was nearby, it released the energy, and Scyther went for a trip. He crashed into a rock, and got shakily to his feet.
"Slash attack now!" Yelled Jarred.
Scyther whizzed forwards again, it's scythes ready to slash and hack.
"ShadowSnap! Faint Attack!" Georgia shouted.
ShadowSnap promptly disappeared. Scyther stopped its head on attack to stare around bluntly. Suddenly, ShadowSnap materialized behind Scyther and raised his front paw, ready to strike.
"Scyther! Watch out…!" Jarred cried, trying to warn his Pokemon. But his cry came a second too late.
SLASSSH!
ShadowSnap's claws slashed at Scyther's back, leaving bloody trails where the claws had been. Groaning, the defeated Scyther collapsed under the Mightyena's paws.
"Scyther!" Jarred moaned, and Scyther dissolved into red light, which zoomed back inside the Park Ball.
"Go Blaziken!"
A large Pokemon appeared. It stood on two sturdy legs, which were colored like flames. Its arms were long and ended with three fingers, like a chicken foot. Flames burst out of slits just above the hand like claws. Its eyes were surly and determined, and it had cream feathers that split from its shoulders.
"Blaze!!" It roared, punching a fist into its other palm.
"ShadowSnap! Return. Go IceEye!" Georgia again nicknamed the Lapras fast. She switched ShadowSnap out.
"Blaziken! Sky Uppercut!" Jarred yelled angrily, furious that Scyther had fainted.
Blaziken shot forwards, and tried to give Lapras a punch to send her to the heavens. Luckily, Georgia cried her attack first.
"Lapras! Use Surf!" She commanded.
Lapras let loose a high wail, and a gigantic wall of water conjured itself underneath Blaziken. The water roared, and Blaziken was swept underneath. Crying joyously, IceEye plunged under. They heard a growl, a wail, and suddenly Blaziken shot up from the deep of the raging wave. The Lapras surfaced soon after, wailing indignantly. Georgia could see that Blaziken had given IceEye a punch, for there was a large welt on IceEye's side.
"Blaziken!" Jarred yelled.
The water evaporated, and Blaziken landed with a thud on the hard ground. It tried to lift itself up, though it had been waterlogged from the wave. It collapsed, fainted.
"THAT'S IT!" Jarred roared.
He needs to cool down. Thought Georgia calmly, surveying Jarred's obvious rage.
"Return Blaziken! Go Tropius!" Jarred screeched.
A large dinosaur appeared in front of Jarred, and roared its challenge at IceEye. IceEye looked calmly into its rage filled eyes, and Tropius's anger at the Lapras grew. Without command, it leapt into the air. Two large leaves started flapping in a rhythm.
"I-I-It's flying??" Georgia's eyes were as round as saucers.
"Yes. Did I forget to mention that Tropius is part Flying Type? It can finish Lapras off easily! Tropius, ATTACK!" Jarred smirked.
Tropius stopped beating its leaves. Then it was plummeting straight for the ground, and straight for IceEye!
"IceEye! Use Ice Beam!"
IceEye looked upwards and released a powerful beam of azure light. The light frothed upwards quickly, and consumed Tropius. There was a roar of pain. And Tropius was plummeting to the ground for a different reason.
"Tropius! Return!" Jarred cried. The red beam just consumed Tropius in time, because if he had waited a moment longer, Georgia's Pokemon would have been a pancake.
"Well done. Not many people beat me." Jarred smiled and offered Georgia his hand.
Well, that is obvious. Georgia thought as she shook hands with Jarred briskly. Jarred had nearly become a berserker.
"I need to get to a Pokemon Centre. Say, would you like to travel with me? I haven't traveled with someone since I first started my Journey at Littleroot Town. This is my second Pokemon Journey, and I'm trying my luck in capturing Pokemon in Johto." He looked at Georgia's patched clothes. "Are you trying to save money? Otherwise we had better get you some new clothes." He chuckled at Georgia's indignant expression.
"Okay." She said hesitantly. She returned IceEye and followed Jarred through the dense forests.
Around two hours later, Georgia had been taken to the nearest Trainer Shack to buy some proper clothes. She now wore loose tracksuit pants that were blue, the jacket, and a short-sleeved black T-Shirt. On her feet she wore a pair of black Sneakers. She felt stuffy and hot under the layers of cloth, but shrugged it off.
::Is everything all right Georgia?:: Came the smooth voice of Avalon.
Avalon! Georgia thought happily.
::Yes?:: Came Avalon's reply.
You mean, you can hear my thoughts?! Georgia tried out the new form of speaking.
::Of course I can dimwit. With your loud thoughts, who couldn't? I'm surprised that other Human hasn't noticed anything strange about you. Anyway, you should stay with him until the time is right.::
What is that time? Georgia almost yelled in her head.
But Avalon had withdrawn her contact. All Georgia felt now was her own thoughts.
Oh well. She'll give eventually. Georgia thought briskly.
"Hey Georgia! Come on! Don't stand around all day!" Came Jarred's yell from outside.
"Coming!"
Well, that's it for Chapter Three. I'll do Review Replies now, for Chapter One, and the Prolouge. I'm going to put their review in Quotation Marks, just to show you what the heck I'm talking about.
Mercenary Pen-'Hey, you seem to be a real fanatic about Suicune, don't you. This isn't a complaint as such, but perhaps you could work on a little more description to set the scene for your story.
Mercenary Pen (a.k.a. I'm not perfect) signing off.'
Yay! A first Reviewer! Yup! If you ever come across a person more Suicune-Fanatic than me I'll be amazed! Yes, I do need a lot more description on the place, but it was a spur of the moment idea and I just wanted to get it down on paper. So I really should have gone over it…oh well.
Surfingpikachu05-'That

Yes, I agree. I've changed the title, so that the similarities are now different. Thanks for the Review!

A miracle isn't it! winks You do?! Thankies and the same to you!
Twisted Alyx-'This is really interesting so far. It seems rather unlikely that Georgia could still be considered pretty after all the unfortunate things you said she goes through.
It's nice to see a different approach to Suicune. I myself always profile it and all the other legendaries as virtually uncatch-able and constantly graceful... blah blah blah. I liked your descriptive. I hope you keep this up, because it's very good.
-TA'
Georgia has Inner Beauty, which is why I said she was still considered beautiful. She still has pretty eyes, behind the hurt. She just needs healing. I decided to make Suicune's profile as a legendary thought of as a different direction. I mean, if all the fics were about 'Suicune could never be caught' it would be boring. I will continue. Thanks!
Twisted Alyx-'It almost seemed too easy. (Please note that I'm not saying its bad) I can't really see why Suicune, excuse me, AVALON (kewl name for a Sui, btw) would want to be captured after going through all the trouble of escaping in the first place. Also, Suicune strikes me as an aloof Pokemon since it's so rare and so many people want to catch it. Why would she want to travel out in the open?
-TA'
If you thought that all the time you couldn't be caught, you wouldn't bother to hide yourself! Avalon didn't think, and that's when they snagged her. She was caught by a Hunter, and sold to the Circus at a high price. Thanks for the Review!
I'm going to write the next Chapter fairly quickly. So keep your eyes peeled! Here's a preview.
Chapter 3: The many faces of JarredGeorgia hurried through the streets, the street mongrels hot on her trail.
"STOP! That belongs to us!" They yelled…
Until then, Review if you may! I love to hear what the Reader's think!
-Hazy Aurora!
