Chptr 2 - Round One
"3! 2! 1!... GO!" As soon as the crowds cheers grew the three launched themselves at Nova.
Comet used Ice beam and Star used Swift. Nova flew as fast as he could only to be frozen in a perfect block of ice. He plummeted to the ground as the star rays smashed into him and exploded. He was sent flying into the ground like a rocket that sent dust flying everywhere.
"Oh! We just started and I think the match is over." A reporter yelled watching.
Nova looked straight up from the ground and saw Geomi falling towards him. "Not today!" he said unleashing a moonblast. The ball of light collided with Geomi sending sparks of light across the whole stadium. The crowd roared with applause when they saw it. Comet used ice shard sending thousands of sharp pieces of ice at him. He didn't even have the chance to dodge as his skin was pierced by the glasslike shards.
Nova collapsed to the ground in pain as Star hopped in and used giga impact on him. He flew across the whole stadium. He left a long trail of missing dirt as he smashed into a stadium wall forming cracks in it. The crowd gasped as he hit the ground not even moving. After a sharp five seconds he rose again bruised and cut up. "It looks like our challenger really wants to win this one. With thirty seconds on the clock I don't know how he will survive." The commentator said.
Nova floated back to the middle of the three ready for what would come next. As his enemies got ready he suddenly repaired himself. He looked as good as new when Star, Comet, and Geomi attacked him. "It looks like Nova knew the move wish." The commentator said as they all went after him. Nova dodged at abnormal speeds as they attacked. He then used dazzling gleam on all three of them.
In the confusion Star ended up hitting Geomi and Comet had somehow kept track of Nova. They flew up very high to the point that they were barely visible. "Whoever loses this fight is gonna be in big trouble." Comet said smiling. Comet let loose a blizzard that threw Nova around like an empty bag. He tried as hard as he could to stay up but all of his energy drained and he began to fall. "Ten more seconds!" The commentator yelled as he fell.
Nova looked down as the crowd counted down. The fall was the most dangerous thing Nova had been in and he hated it. He felt as if the people were counting down his death. Nova felt all sound cease as he broke the sound barrier and fell faster. "One!" The crowd yelled and the buzzer went off as Nova used his last resort. He opened his true eye exposing it to all matter around him. A shield formed around him as he smashed into the ground shooting dust and debris into the sky.
After all the dust cleared the workers dug him out of the ground. The dirt they found Nova in was dark and crystallized as if it wasn't dirt in the first place."I think we found a special one." One employee said to the other. "We should report this to the boss." The second employee said.
Later that day
Nova lay in a room in the Pokemon Center. The lights were off and had been left alone to recover from the challenge. Everyone knew that a simple wish wasn't going to help him now. The room was not too different from any other hospital room. The walls were white and there was an empty desk by his bed. On the wall was a high definition tv. nothing was on at the time.
The silence was broken when the door of the room slowly opened. The sound it made wasn't loud but it let in the sound of the hallway. Someone crept in making sure not to make any sound and placed a note on the desk by the bed. "Lucky." Was all the person said when they left. The door slowly closed and Nova was once again left in the darkness.
After a few minutes Nova shuttered awake. He was driven back into reality by a repeating dream he had a lot. He stretched and yawned. The noise he made was so loud that you could hear it in the halls. After he was done he turned the tv on. He always enjoyed watching the human perspective on things. He found it to be very interesting.
A show about the region was on. "-Pokemon learning English is normal in our region. Even though they may not know everything about our language they all know at least the basics." The show host said. "Also this region has changed a lot throughout the last 20 years. Our pokemon centers are bigger in size and we also have big tournaments." said the show host.
Nova noticed the note on his desk as he listened to the show. He picked it up and examined it.
On the front was a casual picture of a house and another of a big building that Nova couldn't identify. He opened it and read the first line. This is top secret. Only Nova can read this. If you are not Nova then immediately put this down or your life will be ended. Nova focused only on the
paper in his hand as he read more.
Nova there is something that you must know. You are not a normal pokemon. You're real name is-. Before Nova finished the door opened. He frantically shoved the note under his pillow as a pokemon battle tournament employee came in. "Hello Nova. My name is John and I have some information for you." He said. He was wearing an all black suit with a red tie. Nova turned off the tv. "What is it?" Nova asked
Joe cleared his throat. "You have been offered something that you might like." Joe said handing Nova a booklet. "We want you to participate in our newest contest." Joe said as Nova read the title of the booklet. "Team Catastrophic battles." Nova read. "The winning team will be released into the wild." Joe said knowing that Nova would love that. "Wait did you just say released?" Nova asked slightly hovering. "Yes. But only if your team wins the whole thing." Joe said
Nova shot out bed and immediately hit the ground because he had no energy to fly. "Well since you want to go so badly I guess I'll see if you could be released from this center a bit earlier." Joe said picking Nova up and putting him back where he was. "See you later Nova." Joe said walking out.
This concludes the first chapter of this story. I'll be using OCs next chapter.
Peace!
