Aloha everyone, Greninjaten99 back with another chapter... in all honesty I am sorry for making you wait for so long, I have been lazy, getting ready for a job... maybe, and my birthday is coming up in less than a month... which means I will be 20 years old. Anyways I hope you guys like this chapter, talk to you guys at the end of the chapter.

Jake's POV

Darkness and cold. That is all I could see and feel around me. I couldn't remember anything. All I do know is that I am all alone. I have been calling for anyone to come and get me out of this void. But no one heard me or just ignored me. I began to give up all hope, until I saw a bright shining light in the distance, even from here I could feel its warmth. I tried swimming in the void to the light and it seemed to work. It felt like forever trying to get to the light, and when I was finally close to it, I went to touch the light. I was mere inches from it when the light flung itself high above me. I tried to go after it, but I slowly felt gravity taking over. I looked below me and saw that there was a field of grass and flowers 50 feet below me.

I began to panic, fearing that I was going to die. When I saw that I was getting too close to the ground I closed my eyes, hoping that it was just a bad dream. I waited for the inevitable pain that I was going to feel when I hit the ground. And waited. I realized that something wasn't right. I opened my eyes and saw that I was floating an inch from the ground. I was about to question what was going on when gravity came back, "ow." I said. It didn't hurt or anything, well maybe it did hurt getting a face full of dirt.

I lifted my head up and looked around. I was in a city. Wait, wasn't I just in a field? I got up and walked around, realizing that I wasn't just in any city. I was in Seattle. How did I get back here? Hold up, I thought I had no memories, oh well, must have been during the fall. I walked around some more until I heard a voice in the distance. I couldn't make out what it was saying calling out, "Hey, who are you? Where are you?"

After I called out, the voice called back, much closer than expected that I can hear what it was saying and it sounded like it was in conversation range, "Greetings, human chosen from the dimension keeper to travel to other dimensions, how may I be of assistance?"

Chosen? I brought myself to the Pokémon dimension, so why would this voice say otherwise? Instead of thinking about it, I decided to just straight up ask the voice, "What do you mean by chosen?"

The voice started to echo from behind me. "Every one thousand years of a certain dimension, the Dimension Keeper will choose someone worthy from a random dimension," I turned around to see that it was a Pokémon appearing from my very shadow, a Marshadow. The Marshadow continued to speak saying, "that person will be able to go to one or more dimensions by the power of the Dimension keeper, all at the same time, if they wish to go to more dimensions."

Ok, so that sounded pretty cool, but at the same time quite crazy. Why am I even starting to over think this, I need to calm down, get the details of where I am. I faced the Marshadow fully and asked, "Marshadow, where are we?"

Marshadow chuckled and calmly answered, "We are in your head Jake. The reason why I am in your head is to slow the process of you dying while the Dimension Keeper stabilizes your body to the point that you can leave the hospital that you are in."

When I heard those words, I began to have a panic attack. I'm dying?! I can't be! I just started my Pokémon journey! While I was panicking, I curled myself into a ball trying to calm down while barely hearing the Marshadow say under his breath, "Chuta, I shouldn't have said that, the light Is coming in faster." Light? What light? I looked to the Marshadow and saw him looking up. I followed his gaze and saw that the sun looking light it was going to crash down into Seattle.

No one's POV

'What is taking them so long? If they don't hurry up then my chosen one is going to die, and that is unacceptable.' Joey thought, pacing back and forth, hoping they will come quickly The Dunsparce on Joey's shoulder was beginning to worry about Joey, he doesn't often do this, he only does this when something really wrong has happened. Joey was about to go on his 30th lap when the calm beeping of the heart monitor became erratic.

Joey ran to the bed and mentally cursed, 'Marshadow, what did you do?' Joey ran to Jake's side and placed two fingers to the side of Jake's head. The spot that Joey touch began to glow and gave Joey the information he needed. Apparently, Marshadow gave Jake a panic attack. In an attempt to stop it, Joey spoke directly to Marshadow saying, 'Marshadow, you have got to find a way to make him calm down.'

Joey barely heard Marshadow say, 'I will do my best, but I don't know If I can calm him down enough.'

Joey was thinking fast when an idea popped into his head, 'Get him excited.'

Joey could feel Marshadow's confusion, 'Wouldn't that kill him fast- ', at that point Marshadow understood, 'It will be done.'

Joey smirked, 'Good, now hurry, I will get his friends to hurry up.' Joey let his fingers drop from Jakes head. 'Now to speed things up.' While thinking this, he pointed to two spots and the places he pointed appeared two portals, one facing downward the other in arms reach of Joey. From the first portal, Rebecca, Diancie and Tim fell out of the portal.

Diancie looked just in time to see Joey put his arm through the other portal and when he pulled back, Joey was holding a metallic circular container. Diancie asked, 'What is that?'

Rebecca and Tim turned to look and Rebecca said, 'That is the nanobots that we were supposed to find! Why couldn't you do that sooner?'

Diancie turned to Rebecca, asking, 'How do you know it's the nanobots?'

'The tag says nanobots on the side.' Rebecca answered.

Joey turned to Rebecca and said, "I wanted to see if you guys can find it, but then I remembered that it was in a laser shield room, so I had to bring you back. Now let's apply these nanobots to Jakes wounds before something else happens."

Jake's POV

I am dying! What do I do? I don't want to die. I was about to panic even more when I heard Marshadow's voice through my thoughts. "Hey Jake, in your time of dying, would you like to have a Pokémon battle for your last few moments?"

I lifted my head and looked at him like he was insane, "I am dying and you want to battle?"

Marshadow smirked and said, "why not?"

I smirked back, "The Pokémon Wynaut?" Marshadow laughed, why did he change his behavior, aw well, if I am dying, might as well make the most of it. "I accept your challenge, but what Pokémon do I use?"

Marshadow pointed at me and said, "Let's say you are a Pokémon, ready to battle?" Marshadow got into a battle stance and powered up some ghostly energy on his fist which I believed was a shadow punch. Before I could even react, Marshadow charged with lightning quick movement towards me. I panicked and lifted up my arms to block the attack, hoping I would survive this. When the attack made contact, I got knocked back a few meters into a wall. Concrete was falling all around me; I could feel the ghostly energy seeping into me and chilling me to the core while the pain from the powerful punch came rushing in.

"ow that hurt." I groaned. I slowly lifted myself up and by the time I looked up Marshadow was charging at me with both fists pulsing with ghostly energy. Why would he attack me thinking I could fight back, unless he thinks I can fight back? Thinking quickly, I grabbed a piece of concrete and right when he was about to punch my face, I felt time slow down and without questioning it, smacked the piece of concrete across Marshadow's face. Apparently, it had a bit more power to it and launched Marshadow across the street.

I could see Marshadow struggling to get back up from the ground. When he did get back up, he gave a smile at me and whispered, "It's working, good."

"what's working?" I asked.

"you will find out soon enough." Marshadow called back as he ran at me with his fists on fire. Fire punch is going to hurt like H-E- double hockey sticks if they make contact. Not being able to out run him, I raised my fists, ready to fight. When the Marshadow reached me, I was slightly ready. I attempted to barrel roll out of the way but was unsuccessful, as Marshadow punched me right in the gut. The attack wasn't as painful as I thought it would be, instead of burning me, the fire felt like liquid and seeped into my body towards my core, warming my body a little.

"My turn." I said as I raised my fist, feeling ghostly energy from earlier forming from my heart and moving towards my fist. I looked back at my hand and saw that my fist had dark like energy around it. Not even questioning it, I swung my fist towards Marshadow's face, instead of phasing through like the ghost type Pokémon that he is, it made contact, knocking him back into the same spot from last time, making an even bigger crater than last time.

I could see Marshadow shakily getting up, probably running out of strength. "My job is almost done chosen one.", as he was saying this, Marshadow lowered his fist, showing that the battle was over, "I must now tell you about the rules of the power you just witness yourself using, that was adapting through combat. To be able to do what the subject you are up against can do, but better. No, you do not change into the subject you are up against. There are limits to this power and it takes time to fully adapt, for example: If you were fighting a dragon type for a certain amount of time, depends on how intense the battle is, you would have all the abilities that belong to that Pokémon to be able to combat against it, but if you do this and after that battle you go against a fairy type, you would be weakened against it and take more damage like any other dragon type, so be careful what you adapt to. In order to undo the adaptation, you must rest through the night in order be able to adapt to a different subject."

I was so confused; I have a super power? When did I get it? How did I get it? There was so many questions going through my head that I almost had a breakdown. That was until I saw Marshadow walking up to me and motioning for me to crouch down. I did as I was told and Marshadow lightly grabbed me by the shoulder saying, "You are going to be just fine Jake, just do what comes naturally to you and you will be alright. Understand?" I slowly nodded. "Good. Now, I believe it is time to go to the waking world once again." Marshadow says as he and his voice slowly faded into the darkness. Before Marshadow fully disappeared he quickly says, "Oh, just in case, you should try to make that gauntlet of yours more into a weapon to protect yourself if you are in a battle and things are not going well, also just in case you want to go to another dimension. Farewell, chosen one."

Did you like it? I am not used to writing down combat, like at all. If you guys are wondering, no, I WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON THIS STORY. I HAVE WORK TO HARD ON IT. JUST TO LET IT DIE. ok guys I have a question for you, what three unique pokemon should Jake get during his travels, also what "dimensions" would you want to see him in? Hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter and have a great day. If any of you guys are going to school... I hope you find something fun there, I sure did. have a great day.
