Hey guys! I really loved the reaction I got for chapter one! I know this is quite soon to be posting another chapter, but after reading the reviews I decided just to go with it, seeing I have some time on my hands. Please enjoy!
Sean Richards stared intently on the table before him. On it was a row of six eggs, pokemon eggs to be exact. But this was different from every single human and pokemon encounter in history. This time, they were to make friends, partners…even family. Sean knew exactly why he was here. The USA army enlisted him just two years ago to train him for the greatest assignment anyone could receive. They chose him because he was imaginative, fast, and smart. He could easily grasp the idea of a pokemon partner being your greatest ally, your very heart and soul. Looking down the row, he saw his sister Sarah, chosen because of her objectiveness. She could take the direst of situations, break it down step-by-step, and then give the most reasonable solution in mere seconds.
"S-Sq," the small, light cry emanated from the egg in front of him. Just as he was trained, Sean removed the infant pokemon from its egg, just as a pokemon mother would. Surprised, Sean saw that his new partner and best friend was a Squirtle! Squirtles were his favorite pokemon, and he dreamed of having one all of training. He glanced once again down the row and saw all of the pokemon being held high. Sarah herself had a Ralts; a boy named Eyan had a Numel; Erik had a Bagon; Todd with a Nidoran (male); and then, surprisingly, Mellissa held both a Plusle and a Minun. Twins.
"Good job, trainees," Lieutenant Gearhart spoke over the microphone. The United States Military wanted no chance of the pokemon coming to trust someone other than their trainer, so all non-unit members were ordered out of the room into a viewing gallery. "You know what to do now."
Sean began to perform the post hatching procedures on his Squirtle: immunizing it for the many human illnesses, writing down observations on its height and weight, logging in its heart beat, etc. Once again, no chances on their health were being taken.
Fast Forward Three Weeks
"Squirtle, use tackle!" Squirtle obeyed, slamming into Sarah's Ralts at a high speed.
"Ralts, dodge and use confu," Sarah was cut off as her Ralts was slammed into the floor by a two and a half foot turtle. "Aw man! I had the next seven moves planned out already!" Sarah picked up her Ralts and carted it off to the specialized medical cart. The pokemon were all hatched and ready to commence training. They had a strict regimen consisting of workouts, mock-battles, plenty of rest, full-hearty meals, and even learning time. However tight the pokemons' schedules were, they were still treated with utmost care and friendliness. There were even signs of great development so early in the program! The estimated power level of Erik's Bagon was at least six! Everyone had great development, except for Todd's Nidoran. It seemed to have a large rash on its back. To everyone's relief, however, the medical team declared it to be its horns beginning to develop.
Fast Forward One Week
"This is your entrance point," Lieutenant Gearhart pointed to a small doorway in a dilapidated building projected on a board. "We expect his op. to be a simple one, me with minimal resistance. The target is an Oddish den. These Oddish have shown mercy and even possibly compassion to humans in the past, so we expect you to be met with semi-open arms. All we want you to do is bring them this package as a peace offering. It's filled with food, water, toys, and things of the sort. If we can possibly get them to associate humans with kindness, we will have gained an ally. Any questions?"
"Yes, sir," Eyan stood, followed by his Numel. "Are all of us going, or what?" He knew his Numel and Sarah's Ralts were the only ones strong against the Oddishs' grass-poison typing.
"Good question. No. You, Sarah, and Mellissa will be sent on this mission. Report at oh-six hundred hours to be air-dropped."
Sorry about this chapter being so short! But you can tell next chapter will be a real doozy! So please R&R, and stay tuned for the next chapter… Oh-Six-Hundred!
