A/N: Okay, I have a few things to say before you read the fic:

I know the title is Love Conquers All, yet I haven't put the rating as Romance because it's not about boyfriend/girlfriend love, it's about other types, if all goes planned :P

This is only a kind of starter chapter, so if no one reviews I won't carry on, if someone does, I shall. And it might not make sense at first, but I promise everything shall be explained if I carry this on.

Here's the full summary:

Kaleka Willis never really liked adventures; that's why when everyone was called forward to get their first Pokemon at ten, she stayed at home with her mother, doing housework. But four years later she loses contact with her brother, a Pokemon Gym Leader, and begins to worry. With only a tiny Vulpix for company, she sets off into the unknown, searching.

I don't own any of the Pokemon mentioned, but the characters, town names and places are mine afaik.

Prologue

The sound was deafening. Everyone in the stands were clapping their hands, stamping their feet, screaming, shouting; making every bit of noise they could. They were all here to see one person.

Daragh Willis. The dark haired, dark eyed Pokemon Master. Really he was just the Gym Leader in Black Fire city, born and raised in good ol' Daisy Grove.

But to everyone else; he was a hero.

Kaleka Willis wrapped her hands around her ears to block the mind numbing cheering and beamed her beautiful smile down towards her brother.

She wasn't as breathtaking as her brother, with her bright pink hair, dark blue protuberant eyes and pale skin she was barely pretty, but her smile made her all the more attractive.

'And our hero, Daragh Willis, begins the battle with his very own Arcanine burning his opponent's Dodrio with Ember!' The commentator yelled, eyes roaming the stadium.

Dodrio was strong. It withheld the searing pain and hit back with Tri Attack.

A triangle formed up above, lightning struck, fire roared and water gushed as Dodrio pushed the three sided wall of power towards Arcanine.

Arcanine dodged, barely missing the assault and used a strong Take Down attack. Dodrio was knocked off its feet and a huge cheer rose up in the stands as the commentator joined in, yelling out praise.


'Well done, Daragh!' Kaleka squealed as she ran up to him.

'Why thank you, Birthday Girl.' Daragh grinned, enveloping her in a hug.

They broke apart and Kaleka smiled.

'Still smiling beautifully, I see,' he said.

'Ha, yeah,' she replied. 'I haven't seen you in aaages! How are you? Apart from being everyone's hero, of course.'

Daragh threw back his head and laughed loudly.

'I see turning fourteen has given you a sense of humour, Kal.' He said, his voice filled with mirth.

'I see you haven't got me a present,' she joked, smiling.

'Aha!' replied Daragh, grinning. 'Now that is where you're wrong.'

Kaleka's eyes lit up instantly. Her mother's gifts had been satisfactory, but they were just the usual; pants, socks, aprons, cleaning equipment, etc. Kaleka had a feeling her brother's would be better.

'Here,' said Daragh, handing over a purple, fist sized box wrapped in black velvet ribbon.

'Oooh!' squealed Kaleka loudly, taking the box and carefully unlacing the ribbon.

She lifted the lid and inside was a red and white ball.

'A – A –' Kaleka took it out, stared at it, then back at her brother. 'For me?'

'Yeah, dude.' Daragh said. 'But listen closely. The Pokemon inside is very special. She's clever, so she can help you at home. But if you ever fancied having an adventure, like coming to see me,' he smiled, 'she'll protect you all the way. And she's also very good with direction.'

Kaleka's wide eyes had grown even larger.

'Oh, Dar! Thanks so much! This is the best present ever!'

Daragh kissed his sister, embracing her tightly and whispered,

'No problem, sweetie.'
