*walks out*

A: Hello, and welcome to another chapter of Different! This chapter, we meet another character. He is very… different. Wow, I'm going to call every OC that, aren't I? Yeah, I probably am. Anyway, here's the reviews!

A: So, the first review is from the amazing Vaati Star, and he said "Welp, that happened i get the feeling that Minerva's inability to understand the world as of current is going to be an issue for a while, also the poke ball thing with Bewear. Also the childhood thing was a lie was hilarious.

Minerva owned counter: 2

Ding!"

A: Yeah, that's going to be a bit of a problem… also, thanks! I like saying "Your life is a lie" a lot.

A: The second review is from Luktopius, and he said: "QOTC: WHY THAT LAUGH COMES FROM ME! THE GREAT PAPYRUS!" with caps and all.

A: Nyeh heh heh! You're right! So you get an OC!

A: The last review is from Kurama (I hope he doesn't mind me calling him that) and he said: Yeah that laugh is from the game undertale I think the character's name was Papyrus, well it was either him or Sans. Also, this chapter kinda felt like filler, some filler is good because it's a good time for character development. These character's could use some good character development because at the moment they feel pretty bland. Either way, this story still has great potential, it's just a matter of bringing it out keep up the good work. Also, I'll get the character information for you tomorrow, I was up until 10:40 last night because I had the closing shift at Sam's Club, and I need a nap."

A: Yeah, it's from Undertale, also the characters are a bit bland, I might correct that this chapter… maybe… also, get your sleep, dude."

A: So, enjoy the chapter, everyone!

Chapter 4: Hack and Slash

1st person: Azura

Hello everyone! I'm baaaackk! So, that's done. Let's continue.

SO, when we left off, we left off. From the Pokemon Center. But as we travelled, the day got hotter. And hotter. AAAAANNNNDDD hotter.

"Why is it so damn hot?" Ross complained.

"Because global warming" Minerva said bluntly. She took her cloak off and hung it around her neck, like some superhero cape. Underneath she was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and grey sweatpants.

"One, nice way of adding global warming into a conversation. Two, are you not hot? I swear, you are wearing long sleeved shirt and pants." I said.

"I'm fine…"

"Hey guys, look!" Kai exclaimed, pointing into the distance. If I strained my eyes enough, I could see some sort of greenery.

"Please tell me that isn't some sort of mirage" I said.

"Well, if we all see the same thing, we most likely aren't seeing a mirage" Minerva said.

"YEEEEESSSSSS!" Ross yelled "THERE'S A FOREST!"

"For god's sake, Ross, be quiet!" Kai said.

As the boys argued as we walked, I thought about us. Ross was hotheaded, always loud, rarely quiet. Kai was the mediator when we fought. And me? I was triple C (If you don't know what that means, it means Cool, Calm, Collected). Well, most of the time, at least.

Their argument eventually died out, and we continued on walking in silence. Soon, we reached the forest.

"We finally made it!" I said in relief. It was cold in the forest. Thank god.

There were Pokémon EVERYWHERE. I mean EVERYWHERE. Pokémon littered the forest.

"Wow. There are so many Pokémon!" Minerva said.

"I know!" Ross said. "I may try to catch one!"

And as we walked through the forest, none of us realised there were 3 presences above us.

Then we got jumped on by three Pokémon.

The Pokémon were a Shroomish, a Zorua and an Eevee. The Eevee landed on my head, but I wasn't worried about that. I was more worried about getting it off.

"OH MY GOD! GET IT OFF!" Ross yelled. Actually, that's what we all yelled.

We eventually flung them off after a mixture of rolling around and… that's it. The three Pokémon all jumped off at the same time, and took a battle stance. Meanwhile, Minerva just STOOD there, doing nothing.

"Minerva, why you no help us?" Kai asked. Minerva shrugged. So, this is OUR battle. Might as well fight.

We all brought our Pokémon out. They all looked excited for their first battle.

"Yes! First battle!" Oshawott said. I only just realised this, but we can understand our Pokémon. How stupid of me… From Ross and Kai's expressions, they were experiencing the same thing.

"Should we be excited?" Litten asked, pretty triple C.

"Well, I guess so. I think." Treecko said.

"Well, you guys, you probably should be excited" I said. They looked surprised that we could understand them.

"You can understand us?" Oshawott said.

"Uh, yeah"

"Not trying to interrupt your conversation, but we have another problem" Minerva said, pointing to the opposing Pokémon.

Time for battle. Our Pokémon took an offensive stance, and Ross took the first move.

"Litten, use Ember!" Ross said, and Litten spat out a flame at Shroomish. It hit Shroomish straight on, and it went flying back.

Zorua used Tackle, and it flew straight at Treecko. Treecko dodged out of the way, and jumped onto a tree.

"Treecko, use Pound! Pull a John Cena!" Kai yelled. Treecko jumped off the tree, then went into a wrestler pose, the Pound underneath, pointing at Zorua. He slammed into Zorua, and pulled her to the ground.

Meanwhile, I was dealing with Eevee. She used Swift, and Oshawott tried to dodge, but Swift hit him anyway.

"Oshawott, are you okay?" I said worriedly.

"I'm fine!" Oshawott said.

"Good! Use Water Gun!"

Oshawott shot a jet of water at Eevee, and she went down. I looked at my brother's battles. It looked like they were going well.

"Litten, use Scratch!" Ross said, and Litten scratched Shroomish across the face, and he went down. Treecko was throwing around Zorua using Vine Whip.

Soon, the enemies were laying across from us exhausted, when Ross had an idea.

"Why don't we catch them?" Ross asked.

"Well, that wouldn't be a bad idea" Kai said.

"I'm not saying no" I said.

We each grabbed a Pokeball and threw them at the Pokemon we fought. They bounced off each Pokémon, and they were sucked in at the same time. They started wobbling.

1…

2…

3…

Ding!

"Yes! We caught them!" Ross said.

"I have a question" Kai said to Minerva "Why didn't you help us?"

"This was your battle. It would have been wrong of me to interfere" Minerva said wisely.

"You sound like some sort of guru, like "This is your battle" and all that. Why couldn't you have just destroyed everything with Bewear?"

"Because 1, he wouldn't listen to me, and 2, he would probably go on a rampage and destroy everything in the universe"

"Ummmm…"

"Yeah, we should probably let our Pokemon out…" I said. We pressed the buttons on the newly-caught Pokemon… Pokeballs… I think that's how you say it…

We let our newly-caught Pokemon out, and they looked sort of… annoyed…

"Why did we get caught?" Zorua complained.

"Well, I guess we did attack them…" Shroomish said.

"I guess we have to deal with it" Eevee said.

I walked up to Eevee.

"Hi, I'm Azura!" I said.

Eevee looked at me.

"Your name matches with your hair. Amusing." Eevee said.

"Yeah, well that's how my mum came up with my name. I think, at least"

"You can also understand me. Useful"

"Do you always end a sentence with a single word?"

"Most of the time."

Zorua walked up to Kai.

"I'm guessing you can understand me as well?" Zorua said.

"Yep, I can"

"Why can you understand me?"

"Uhhhh… I'll explain later…"

Shroomish looked at Ross.

"Eh, I'd prefer you as a trainer than the other two."

"Um, is that a GOOD thing?" Ross asked.

"I guess so…"

Wow, Ross is quiet. This Shroomish should stay around.

"Guys, we should probably head off right now if we want to reach the next city by night" Minerva interrupted.

"So, do you want to go into the Pokeball, or walk?" I asked all the Pokemon.

They simultaneously sucked themselves into the Pokeball.

"Wooooow" Ross said, but he didn't press the Pokeball's button.

We continued walking through the forest, and soon we got through it, and we continued along the path, until we got to the next city. Pewter City.

"We finally made it!" Ross exclaimed.

"Well, let's find the Pokemon Center" I said. We continued through the city.

But as we walked past a restaurant, we could hear something going on inside. It sounded like some sort of disagreement. Suddenly, the door opened, and someone came flying out.

Coincidentally, Minerva was walking on the left side, so when he got thrown out, he cannoned into Minerva like some…human…cannonball. Well, not so human.

The person who cannoned into Minerva was a humanoid Braviary. He was wearing a blue t-shirt, white pants, he was wearing a red baseball cap with wings poking out of his back.

"Are you okay?" Kai asked worriedly.

"I'll be fine" Minerva said.

"Now, are YOU okay?" I asked the mystery person. They looked surprised for me to be talking to.

"Yeah, I'll be fine" They answered "My name's Ace Braveheart, by the way"

"Ok, nice to meet you! Also, what happened in there?" I said.

"They threw me out because I'm a Pokemorph" Ace answered bitterly.

"Well, that's not right! So, if all the places you go they kick you out, why don't you come along with us?"

"Goddamnit Azura, why do you invite everyone we meet to come with us?" Ross said "They may not even want to come-"

"I'll come" Ace said. "I might as well"

"Well, that's settled! You're coming along!" I said happily.

"So, we might as well get to the Pokemon Center now-"

"Wait" Minerva said. "You still haven't explained how you can understand Pokemon"

"Ummm" Was all we could say, backed into a corner.

"Uh, we'll explain tomorrow" Kai said. Thank god.

We walked to the Pokemon Center, and with a bit of hassle (Nurse Joy didn't really want Ace to stay), we got rooms for all of us. And the next day, we set out to beat the gym. And explain how we could understand Pokemon…

*walks out*

A: That's done, everyone! Also, does that count as a cliffhanger? I don't know. I don't really have much to say, so here's the QOTC!

QOTC: What is the god of all Pokemon?

A: This is kinda obvious, but they keep on going "I swear to god" and stuff, and I couldn't think of any other QOTCs, so I went "Screw it"

A: That's all I have to say, so I guess that's the end of the chapter! Bye!
