O'del thrashed in his bed screaming and yelling out in fear. Eventually, his eyes opened wide and he quickly sat up. Panting heavily as he stared at the wall in front of him. After awhile he shook his head and threw the covers off of him, and moved to the edge of the bed. He brought both of his hands to his face and sighed heavily. Slowly he got to his feet and walked towards a nearby window. Pulling back the curtains; he unhinged the latch and opened the window. Allowing him to feel the cool early morning air. He rested his arms on the windowsill; only to bury his face into them. He started to sob quietly.
"Why?" he asked himself as he choked back a sob. The dream had been bothering him for the last two nights. His eyes started to have bags forming underneath him and they appeared to be bloodshot. "Why can't it just leave me alone?!" he asked with a loud shout before turning away from the window; he then walked over to a nearby desk.
At the desk he opened one of the draws and pulled out a small journal. He set it on the desk. Pulled back the chair that was underneath it and sat down. He opened his journal to a blank page and began to write.
"This is the second time I've had that dream! I'm back at my home, with my mom and dad, and my brother. I'm in the backyard playing with Sonic boom and the..."
Releasing a yell of anger he threw the journal towards the door of the room. It slammed hard against the wooden door; only to quickly fall to the floor. He began to cry again, his tears falling from his eyes like waterfalls. He started to remember everything from that horrible night. He could hear is family screaming from inside their home. His brother shouting for him to run. His mother screaming just before another explosion came from their home. How he was blown back across the cold hard ground; just before the rain started to fall to the earth below. He then saw them, the ones responsible for all of it, the ones who did all of this. He could see their wicked smiles; hear their sick laughs and feel his anger rising.
"But, all I did was run." he said to himself in anger.
He heard the sound of his pokeballs opening and he heard two sets of feet walking towards him. Sighing he turned around and faced his pokemon. They had looks of worry on their faces. He rose from the chair and walked towards the two. Only to be gently hugged by both of them. He returned their hug with one of his own. For a few minutes the three stayed like that until finally breaking the hug.
"Sorry, guys," he apologized as he walked over to journal he had thrown. Picking it up off the floor; he walked over to his backpack and placed it inside of it, "Well, lets go get some breakfast." he finished.
A few minutes later O'del was inside the towns local pokemart. He was looking at the shops selection of medicines. He wondered which ones he should get, how many he should get, and how much all of it was going to cost when he finally made his purchase. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a strange holographic card. He then gently tapped the front of it; a few seconds later another image appeared on screen. He growled in anger before leaving the store.
"I should have known!" he shouted in anger as he walked down the street. A few people looked at him; confused about what he was yelling at. He kicked some dirt into the air before leaning up against one of the many buildings, "Should have known I got scammed at that motel." He finished before looking up towards the sky.
When he had arrived in the village last night one of the villagers had walked up to him. The villager had given him a coupon for two free nights at the local motel; it sounded almost too good to be true. Unfortunately it was. Because, when he had checked his pokecard; all of his money was gone. He soon looked away from the sky and back down to the ground.
"What am I gonna do?" He asked.
His question was answered by a piece of paper suddenly hitting him in the face. He peeled off the paper and looked at it. The paper read "Battle-tournament today! Grand-prize 100,000+ ?. runner-up prize 50,000.". He got his answer but it was not an answer he was expecting. Reaching towards his belt he unhooked his pokeballs from his belt. Bringing them up in front of him; he stared down at them. He knew Sonic boom may get him through most of the tournament. But what about charmander? He knew that it was young and inexperienced. But, if he battled with it he knew it would get stronger. Looking at the paper again; he reread it and saw there was no pokemon limit. With a nod he read the paper again and saw where to sign up for the tournament and left immediately.
The tournament was being held in the center of town. Many people had gathered there; some of them were spectators. While others were the pokemon trainers. There were around twenty-five trainers plus O'del. Which meant he would have to battle each trainer in order to win the grand prize. He was lucky to had made it to the sign in just in time. He was very lucky when one of the tournament referees had given him five potions and ten revives. Unfortunately, he was the first one up to battle.
His legs shook nervously as he stared at his opponent. Who stood with a confident smile stretched across her face. He held the pokeball with his charmander in it; worried if it was going to be okay or not. Taking in a deep breath he waited for the referee to start the battle.
"This pokemon battle shall be a two pokemon match!" The ref shouted in a loud voice while everyone in the surrounding crowd started to cheer, "Switch-outs are not allowed! Both trainers may only used one revive to revive a fainted pokemon and both trainers may only use two potions!" He continued the female trainer nodded her head and prepared for the battle. While O'del had a look of horror etched onto his face, "May the first battle," The ref then brought his hands up in front of him; only to quickly extend them out to both his sides, "BEGIN!" He yelled.
The female trainer brought her arm behind her head, "Go," She then launched her pokeball into the air in front of her, "adamanteon!" She finished.
From the pokeball came the one of the twelve evolutions of eevee. The steel type adamanteon; it was a little shorter than umbreon. Instead of a furry body it had what looked like an armored suit. Its head was covered by a helmet; which had a solid black face-shield. Its tail was shaped like as blade. The pokemon immediately got into a battle ready stance. Barking out its name before letting out a threatening growl.
Taking a deep breath O'del brought his arm back, "G-Go!" He shouted before throwing the pokeball out in front of him, "Burner!" He finished just as his charmander emerged from the ball and took a battle stance of its own.
Both pokemon stared at each other for a few minutes; both of them growling loudly at the other. They both had looks of determination. Waiting patiently for their trainers to give them a command.
"adamanteon," The female trainer began, "Use tank charge!" She shouted.
"ada!" adamanteon growled before it charged forward. Its body glowed a bright silver as it ran towards the charmander.
"Burner, Dodge!" O'del shouted.
"char!" Burner yelled before quickly moving to the left. Dodging the attack and giving it a opening for an attack of its own.
"Use, ember!" O'del shouted.
"Charmander!" Burner roared before opening its maw and launching an ember attack.
The adamanteon howled in pain as it took a direct attack; a small amount of black smoke erupting from the point of impact. Once the smoke had cleared; adamanteon was still standing on all fours, but their were sign of damage. It was growling loudly and it was barely able to keep standing.
"Yes," O'del though in his mind after seeing how it looked, "Just one more attack and I've got one more pokemon to beat."
"adamanteon! Reborn legend!" The female trainer yelled.
"adamanteon!" It acknowledged before closing its eyes. Its body then started to glow brightly and a few seconds later it stopped. It then opened the eyes and snarled loudly.
"adamanteon! Roar of time!" The trainer ordered.
"manteon!" It roared before launching a powerful dragon type attack.
O'del was in a state of complete shock; he froze and became silent as the attack closed in on charmander. charmander yelled in fear as the attack landed a direct hit. charmander was then launched backwards and thrown hard against the ground. It skid across the ground and came to a stop at its trainers feet. O'del slowly crouched down and picked charmander up; he could hear it release a weak moan of pain as it tried to open its eyes.
"charmander," O'del began as a few tears feel from his eyes. Slowly he brought up its pokeball and aimed it at it, "return." the red beam shot out of the ball and at the charmander. which seconds later was taken back into the pokeball. He then reached into his pocket and pulled out his seconds pokeball. He stared at it for a few seconds; before pressing the button on the front of it. Bringing his hand back like before, "Sonic boom! I choose you!" He shouted before launching the pokeball out in front of him.
O'del was lucky to get through the first few matches. By the time he had reached the final ten; he had used almost half of his revives and he was down to his last two potions. Then after his eight opponent. He was down to his last revive and he was out of potions. His last opponent was a male teenager; who had a blastoise and a mankey. He managed to beat the mankey with burner. But the blastoise managed to hold its own against Sonic boom.
"Sonic boom! Boomburst!" O'del shouted.
"noivern!" Sonic boom replied before launching said attack form it two massive ears. The attack had hit blastoise straight in the chest. Making it skid backwards across the ground. The blastoise gave off a grunt; before it stood up on its own two legs. Only to fall forwards completely unconscious.
"blastoise is unable to battle! Victory goes to O'del thorn and noivern!" The referee announced causing everyone in the surrounding crowd to cheer loudly.
O'del felt as if everything was underwater; he could barely hear the cheering of the crowd around him. The only thing he could hear was the sound of his breathing and the sound of his noiverns voice. Slowly he looked up and saw his noivern staring right back at him. It had a proud smile on its face and it had its wings opened slightly. Slowly, O'del walked forward and hugged his pokemon. It returned his hug with a hug of its own.
A little while later O'del was presented with his prize money and his mystery surprise. Then just as the sun was setting he was already walking out of village and onto another route. Route 3, heading right for Hunt city. As he walked down the road; he reached into his hoodies pocket and pulled out a strange looking medallion. It was round with a prism in the middle of it. He knew what it was and was not happy about it. It was a light path medallion. Unlike most regions who had gyms and normal pokemon leagues. Sabied had the battle of the lights. An all region battle tournament; where the winner was deemed the champion of lights. In this region many of its villages and cities had a different colored light as its chosen color. For the one he was currently in, it was blue the color of everlasting wisdom and peace.
"I just had to win it all," He groaned in annoyance before placing the medallion back into his hoodie. Kicking one of the many rocks on the road as he walked, "Now I'm entered in the tournament," He continued to gripe before he looked up to the sky; which was painted by a very beautiful sunset, "I could use a little help here brother! I didn't want to be a pokemon trainer and you know that!" He yelled hoping to get some sort of reply, "But...as you would say," He began in a defeated voice, "It's the will of the lights." He sighed.
