Chapter 5
I woke up in a daze. I could smell the greenery of a forest. I opened my eyes and saw that I was in the middle of a grassy area in a forest. It felt warm, surprisingly warm, as if it were the summer time. I knew I wasn't in Canada anymore. I could feel a calm breeze move over my back. I glanced down to find a cliff that lead to the ocean. It looked beautiful.
While I was admiring the view, still lying down, I felt something poking my back. Was it Terra? I looked at where I last saw Terra only to find that she was unconscious, just as I was. What was poking me in the back? I roled over and found a little pikachu. I was shocked. They exist, just when I was starting to get over the surprise of meeting Terra and they exist too.
The pikachu stumbled back as I came to my feet. I was fascinated by it, it looked so small and cute.
'Oh god, it's gonna hurt me, run, run now', the voice came from the pikachu. It talked too.
'What, no, I'm not gonna do anything to you'. In an instant the pikachu came to a halt, and turned to look back at me, in shock.
'Wait, you can talk'?
'Trust me, I'm just as surprised as you are, do you have a name, my name's Nick'? I said as I inched towards it.
'Ya, my name is Dallin. How in the world are you talking to me'. Great, we were trading questions all over again.
'I have no idea, but I'm starting to enjoy this. Um, do you know where we are right now.' I slowly took a few more steps towards Dallin. After a few more steps I was standing right in front of it. I knealed down and reached towards it's forehead. At that point I wondered to myself the pikachu actually had powers.
Out of nowhere a little jolt hit me and gave me a quick shock. I fell down to the ground, twitching ever so slightly. 'No-one questions my electricity'. Yup, it definitly had powers.
As much as I enjoyed talking to pokemon, it started to bother me that I had no privacy in my mind anymore.
'Right, ok, sorry, I'm still working on controlling what get's thought and what get's said'
'That's ok'.
I smiled at it and sat up. I reached towards its forehead again and gave it a pat on the head. It even felt cute. I spent another 5 mins petting and conversing with it. Then a voice came from behid me
'Ugh, Nick, is that you'. I looked back to find Terra was waking up. As I looked back, so did Dallin. He let out a little cry.
'AAAH, itsgonnaeatme gottagetoutofhere' He was speaking so fast, I couldn't make out what he was saying. Dallin jumped away and ran off into the woods.
Terra was still in a daze and couldn't tell that Dallin was there.
'Aw, Terra you made Dallin run away' I thought.
'What, who's Dallin'
'Oh, nevermind. Terra, do you know where we are'?
'DO I. This is the last place I remember being'
'Great! Do you know the way to civilization'
'Sorry, I never wanted to come close to human civilzation'.
I looked around. The ocean view was still as beautiful as ever. I looked around to find a path.
'Well, that pathway is our best bet. Let's start walking' Terra came to her feet, and we stared walking.
I could feel the calm breeze flowing through me. It felt so different there as when I left my home it was Autumn. It was warm, pleasently warm. The scent of forest was in the air, and I felt great.
'So, Terra, this is where you live'?
'Ya, it's great, isn't it'?
'Great? It's wonderful here, I wouldn't mind living here myself'.
We walked about a kilometer in the forest. I could see the mountains off in the distance, and the ocean, still behind us.
'Terra, I hope this actually goes somewhere'. Just when I said that I heard some familiar noises off in the distance. I ran down the path which veered left infront of us. Terra ran beside me with ease. I finally came to the end of the path and ran up a hill and saw exactly what I was looking for.
'Wow, have you ever seen anything like this Terra'.
'Not once in my life'. Terra was just as surprised as me. Just in front of us was a small city, just like the one I lived in. We got an excellant view of the city. I could see miles of houses, and several large buildings in the midst of the city.
I looked at Terra 'Well, I guess this is where our journey begins, let's make the most of it'
