Thunderstorm.

It was a rainy night, much like the one right now. May Maple hurriedly walked up the hill she lived on the other side of. But knowing her luck (A/N: It was thundering while I wrote this) it started thundering. She started walking past the La Rousse Mansion and stopped. The gates were closed and locked, yet there was a light on in the first storey.

May's curiosity was unleashed as she felt the close "BOOM!" of the thunder. The rain started pounding down onto her waterproof coat as she shrugged and thought 'Oh well. I definitely won't make it home in time for safety.'

May climbed over the wrought iron gate and ran to the large, looming figure of the mansion. Another thunderbolt came crashing down close by. May jumped like a startled rabbit and ran through the open door. (A/N: She had opened the door.)

The girl followed her instincts and made her way toward the light source that she had seen from outside. But as she found herself in an enormous library she felt a sneaking fear entering her heart.

A fire was lit in the fireplace on the far wall of the library. May made her way toward it and stretched out her hands toward it.

The girl felt a prickling down her spine and she felt like she was being watched. May swiftly turned around in time to see a shadow flit across a bookcase.

She jumped as the fire crackled. May abandoned all hopes of keeping warm as she silently searched through the bookcases.

A book caught her eye. "How to raise contest pokemon." May pulled the book out and gasped as she saw what was behind it. A beautiful emerald eye gleamed from behind the bookcase. It suddenly looked her straight in the eyes and she gasped again.

She pressed herself to the bookcase behind her. A book teetered on the edge of its shelf, right above May's head. May was about to send out her Blaziken when the book fell and knocked her out.

(A/N: That's the first chappie! I'm not sure if that's a cliffie. But it doesn't matter. R&R! Next chapter will be here soon. I promise!)
