Chapter 20: Reanimation

Point of View anonymous

I slowly felt myself waking up in an unknown location. I felt as if I was asleep forever. I opened my eyes slowly but my vision was to blurry to even make out anything. Once my vision adjusted a little more I noticed humans wearing white lab coats walking around. I was in some kind of laboratory room lying on a bed. There were machines hooked up to me and putting liquids into my body. I tried moving around a little but I quickly realized I was restrained by multiple straps. One of the human scientists then began observing me and took out a clipboard and began writing on it. I had no idea who these people where but they were all about to die for this.

"Ah you are finally awake R twenty-one" I heard someone call out from behind me. I slowly struggled to shift my gaze to my left side and I saw a kadabra standing right next to me.

"I don't know who you are but what the hell is going on here" I demanded a logical answer in a weak voice. The kadabra just continued to observe me carefully as he evaluated me.

"Well we will still need to run some test on you, but my first question is do you remember your name" The kadabra asked me completely ignoring my question. I thought about it for a second and I struggled to remember my name. It was like trying to remember a dream that I had already forgotten.

A few minutes passed before the kadabra decided to interrupt my deep thought "Your name is Stark and you may experience a little amnesia for a few days before you can remember everything clearly" the kadabra said.

"Where am I" I asked again. The kadabra then decided to finally make eye contact with me.

"You are in a hidden location that is safe. Now do you remember what happened before you were here" the kadabra asked me. I thought for a few seconds and then I remembered my last memory.

"I remember I was caught for doing something and the police were after me. I remember running down the streets of Luminose city and all I remember is hearing a gun fire and I was shot and I then tried escaping but I remember bleeding a lot and passing out in middle of the street" I said as I recalled my last memory.

"Good you are remembering your memories faster than expected. Then the project was a success" The kadabra said.

"Project, what are you talking about and shouldn't I have bled out and died back their" I snarled in a weak voice. The kadabra just looked at me unfazed by my anger.

"And you did Stark" The kadabra said bluntly. Now I was confused and I had no idea what was going on or how I was alive.

"You are a reanimation of your former self. Or in other terminology you are an artificial pokemon based off your old self that died" The kadabra said. I took a second to think through what he just told me. I knew there was not even a chance of me living that bullet wound since it hit a vital organ and I remembered bleeding out in middle of the streets.

"Your crazy" I said bluntly not even sure what he was talking about.

"Let me show you something Stark" The kadabra said as he grabbed a mirror off the floor and held it up towards me. In the mirror I saw myself. Everything was normal about me. I was a pure white umbreon with black rings on my body. I didn't even have a scar from my bullet wound. Then I noticed something different about my body, my eyes where a navy blue not their original blood red color.

"What did you do to my eyes" I said in a serious tone.

"Your eyes are the only external thing on your body we've altered. Internally we made everything about you better. You are faster, stronger and your overall health is better" The kadabra said. The kadabra then undid the straps on my body and let me free. I slowly got up with my weak body and I jumped off the bed I was on. I was now contemplating on whether I wanted to kill every last person in this room or not.

"How do I know you are not just deceiving me" I said.

"I can show you all of the documents and videos that were made showing your creation" he said with a serious tone. I can tell from the look of his eyes he wasn't kidding about showing me evidence. I wasn't quite sold yet on me being an artificial being based off my former self but I was going to hear him out before I killed him. Although if he was telling the truth I knew that was going to be very weird.

"Okay so if I am a reanimation then why did you bring me back to life if I died, why would you need someone like me and how the hell would you even bring me back to life" I said demanding a reasonable explanation.

"Well you aren't exactly the old you. We simply extracted some of your DNA from your corpse and we basically created an altered clone of your old self, then I put all of the memories from the old you into your new body using my psychic abilities. I can get more detailed but I'll spare you from a headache. The reason we brought you back to life is because we knew of your abilities to get almost anything done. You have been described by some as the devil even. We brought you back because someone we know needed your skills and we thought you could benefit both of our groups."

"Who" I asked quickly. The kadabra looked at me seriously. "The person who wants your help goes by the name Mandus but his organization is known as the crimson dawn. I believe you've done work for them in the past years ago" The kadabra said.

"Yeah they sound familiar. Just one more question" I said.

"What?"

"Who are you people then" I asked seriously.

He gave out a small chuckle and looked at me "We are team Genesis" the kadabra said in a serious voice.

Point of View Kana

It was now around early evening and the sun would be setting in a few hours. Alex finally gave up on looking for Black and decided that Black just ran away permanently. Alex led us all down route five. Along the route was a big lake that followed the route all the way up to a big mountain far off in the distance. Alex continued leading us down the route in a mopey attitude. Everyone felt pretty bad for him since he was taking this the hardest, besides Flare of course.

After about an hour of walking we finally made it to the mountain. We followed the path up to it and we all quickly noticed that the path went straight through a cave that went through the mountain. The path also split off and went around the left side of the mountain. Alex sat there for a second and began considering which was the right path to take. He then noticed the warning sign right next to the caves entrance and observed it for a second.

"Well guys I guess we are walking around since there is a caution sign here and I don't want the cave collapsing on us or something like that" Alex said in a dull voice. Everybody just nodded and followed his lead. The path we took just followed the side of the mountain. There was a giant drop to the left of the path so there was hardly any room outside of the path.

"This could be awhile" I heard Flare say from behind me.

"Yeah no kidding" I replied. Me and Flare have both cooled off from our argument with Gray earlier but Flare was still depressed about the whole Black situation. As we all continued down the path around the mountain the path went higher and higher up the mountain until we were up really high. From here we could see the town called Camphrier off in the far distance, the view was gorgeous. The sky on top of all that was nice and clear and no sign of bad weather as far as the eye could see.

"Hey Flare how long will this take us to get to the next town" I asked curious when we will be back in civilization.

Flare thought for a few seconds "Since we are going around the mountain we may have to stop up here tonight or we will get their very late at night, but I'm just guessing" He said.

"We won't be there until tomorrow" Gray added to our conversation.

"How would you know" I asked.

"Because I've been through here before long before I met Alex. If we went through that main cave it would have taken us a few minutes but this path will take us the complete opposite direction of where we are going for a while. Then it will redirect us to where we are heading" Gray said followed by a yawn.

"Oh what were you doing out here back then" I asked curiously.

"I was with a friend of mine exploring this area" Gray said.

"That must have been fun back in the day" Flare added to our conversation.

"Back in the day it was fun wondering around exploring places" Gray said as he reflected back on his memories. We all continued walking for a few more hours along the mountain until we found a big clearing on the mountain. There was enough room for us to set up a small camp for the night here and the mountain would shield us from some of the wind.

"Let's set up camp here" Alex said in an exhausted voice. We all nodded to him in agreement and everybody including Alex sat down to rest for a bit. Climbing up on a mountain was pretty exhausted even if we were on a trail that was pretty smooth. My whole entire body ached from all of the walking we did, especially since I was not use to exorcise at all. Not saying I was overweight I was just not that active since I was always locked in a house all day.

Flare and Gray on the other hand looked a little tired but nowhere near compared to me and Alex. "How are you feeling" Flare asked me.

"Wonderful" I said jokingly in a sarcastic voice.

"You will get use to moving around more like this in a few weeks. Until then you may be soar here and their" Flare said. I simply just nodded at Flare to show him I was listening to him. I was too tired to really talk at the moment. Alex then got up and began setting up a camp fire with some wood he was smart enough to bring along. Although I highly doubted the wood would last more than a few hours. I just prayed that it wasn't too cold up on these mountains at night.

Point of View Black

Hesh and I have been looking around this Mew forsaken mountain for Mew knows how long. The sun was now going down and my body felt like it was broken. Not only did I get the crap beat out of me today, now I was hiking up a mountain and searching for missing pokemon. All I could think about now was sleep.

"Hesh… how long until we go back" I asked in a tired voice. Hesh looked at me with a disappointed look.

"You giving up already" he asked me.

"Not that I'm giving up, I'm just exhausted and I'm soar. Plus I did get assaulted today" I said trying to sound reasonable.

"Yeah I guess you have a point. Why don't we head back and see if we can find something tomorrow morning" Hesh said.

"Yeah that sounds good to me" I said trying to not sound too excited about finally getting to take a break from our search. Hesh quickly made his way down the mountain and back towards the town while I slowly took baby steps while making my way down the mountain. After about two hours of slowly climbing down I finally made it to town and my whole body was screaming from the pain of climbing all day. Hesh and I made our way back to the area where his stash of food was behind the pokecenter.

"This is where you sleep" I asked. I kind of expected him to sleep somewhere else. Not on the cold ground outside.

"Yeah pretty much" he said.

"Okay" I said kind of shocked that he would sleep behind a building every night. I just fell over and began relaxing after such a hard day. Hesh just grabbed some food out of his stash and began snacking on it. I on the other hand was too tired to even think of food. I was actually nervous about sleeping here though since I was right next to a cliff and I was worried about rolling off the cliff in my sleep.

"How long do you plan on sticking around here" I heard Hesh say while he stuffed his face with food. I processed that thought for a second, I never even really thought about how long I was going to stick around here.

"No clue" I said in a tired voice.

"Well you can stay as long as you want" Hesh said kindly. I don't know if I could tolerate this area for long though and there was no way in hell I was going to climb that mountain on a regular basis. I slowly felt everything go quiet and I drifted off into a deep sleep.

Point of View Stark

The Kadabra lead me down a hall as I followed him. My body felt much more recovered now that some time had passed. He led me into a room at the end of the hallway. I was now in a room with a bunch of equipment such as guns, tactical equipment and other military grade equipment. In the room there was a black scyther leaning against the wall with his bladed arms crossed. He looked at me for a second and then looked away.

The kadabra then looked at me and then pointed at the scyther "This is Kane. He is with the crimson dawn. You and him are going to be hunting someone down here very soon" The kadabra said in a serious voice.

"And if I refuse to help" I asked in a stubborn voice.

"Do as you please Stark, but if you go against us we will just kill you" He said while looking me dead in the eyes. If I truly wanted to I could rip out his throat and that scyther's before they could even think of blinking. But instead I was going to play along with them since they did give me life. Not that I felt any loyalty towards them I just figured I'd do them one favor. I wasn't sure though whether I believed the whole reanimation story yet. I would have to think it through a little and see the evidence the kadabra spoke of.

"I'll help you for now" I said as I walked towards the scythe. "When are we leaving" I asked him anxious just to get this job out of the way. He just looked at me for a second and looked away.

"He isn't the talking type" The kadabra said from behind me. I just walked away from the scythe and headed back towards the kadabra.

"Who are we hunting down."

The kadabra looked me in the eyes with a serious gaze "You are hunting down an umbreon who goes by the name of Black currently."

Chapter End

Author Note: Well I hope you all like Stark so far. So far he is against Black which will make for an interesting view of story. His view will be a lot more different from the enemies point of view than the Charmander's point of view because he is actually on their side and not being manipulated in the way the charmander is. Also I know I haven't mentioned the Charmander in awhile, I will be working on getting him mixed into all of this soon but it is a little tough working with all of these characters lol. One thing I was going to do that I didn't do in this chapter was get into detail about how a clone is made. Because basically all Stark is, is a modified clone of someone who died and then the memories from the original body was implanted into the new Stark. I do hope everyone understoof it from what I said and if you guys think I should get mor detailed about how the clone was made please tell me and I will, I just didn't want to confuse anyone lol. Anyways feel free to tell me what you think of Stark and how you think he will change this story up. Also now we have a name for the group that has been chasing Black, The Crimson Dawn. I also introduced another group called team genesis in this chapter. They will both be playing a key role in this story. Anyways thanks for reading and I would like to thank everyone who review's I appreciate it and it does help motivate me to keep writing on a regular basis so thanks again.
