Hey Guys! Sorry about taking so long, Kuro has been really busy with his life, as well as myself.

My scream echoed throughout the forest. As if by coincidence, the wind blows. Causing the surrounding trees to rustle. It'd look pretty epic if this was a hollywood movie. I backed away from the river in pure shock, "I... really am a Charmander!" I stated. Feeling over my snout in disbelief. The Totodile facepalmed, "That's what I just said..." he whined. You could tell just from his body language, he was annoyed. He must have taken me for an idiot right then, because he grabbed onto my tail, which I didn't notice I had, and started dragging me out of the forest. "C'mon i'm getting you out of here, before you torch the place up."

I was going to protest, but I was mentally paralyzed by all these different thoughts and emotions running through my head. "Wh-where am I?" was the first question that came out of my mouth. The Totodile then smiled, his demeanor changed completely. It would have been more surprising had I not been so caught up with my thoughts. "Well, we're outside the Tiny Woods! Better be careful! The Mystery Dungeon was close-by." he warned. Mystery Dungeon? As if I cared what that was! Pushing the thought of it aside with a shake of my head, "Who...are you…?"

The Totodile pointed to himself with pride in his voice. "Me? I'm Ricky!" He then pointed at me, "Now tell me this. Who're you? And man, why do you sound so surprised about being a Charmander?" he asked. Cocking his head to the side a little. Looking confused.

I sighed and lowered my head, "Because, i'm not a Charmander, err...well before I wasn't! I was a human before!" I was quickly cut off by Ricky's laughter. The Totodile fell to the ground, rolled around, and flail his arms around. He was acting like such a kid! I huffed, and to my surprise a little puff of smoke came out, "It's the truth!" I snapped at him.

"Man, you're a riot!" he said, still laughing. He eventually stopped as he saw the look in my eyes, and my arms folded.

"I'm not joking." I said still looking at him with the same glance

Ricky blinked in surprise, "You...you're serious, aren't you?" I nodded in response. "Dude...you must have bumped your head pretty hard." He figured. Still not getting it. I facepalmed in annoyance, and sighed. It then occurred to me I forgot to introduce myself…

"My name is Alderin."

Ricky scratched his head confused, "Alderin...strange name, dude…" I growled at him. Giving a stomp, "Ricky isn't much better!" I snapped back at him. It was then Ricky glared and bawled his fists up, "You wanna go man?!" I got in a fighting stance and growled even more, "Yeah! I wanna go! let's do this! Bring it on!"

As soon as our fight started it quickly stopped, as a yellow blur suddenly shot in between us, the gust that followed caused us to fall on our backs. I widened my eyes looking around "What the heck was that?" Ricky looked as the blur disappeared in the forest. "Dunno…"

"S-Stop! Someone stop him!" we heard someone yell out. Ricky and I turned to the source of the plea, a Butterfree had flapped to the ground. Wounded "Th-That Beedrill took my son!" She cried out, as she struggled to move. I looked at Ricky. Ricky had a determined look on his face, and then ran into the forest! I looked at the Butterfree, "Don't worry! We'll rescue him!" And with that, I ran after Ricky.

"G-Good...luck…" she muttered out.

Ricky was standing outside of a large opening in the forest. It probably went deeper in, but he hesitated. "What's the matter?" Ricky shook his head, "Don't you know where that leads into?" he asked, looking at me somewhat skeptical. I shook my head, "No...where?" Ricky huffed before answering, "That Beedrill went in the Mystery Dungeon here… lately a whole lot of Pokemon have been acting violent, and irrational. Man we're no rescue team…"

I snapped at him, "We may not be one of those Rescue Teams that you're talking about, but i'm not going to just stand here!" And with that, I ran in. Ricky's jaw dropped, and he facepalmed before running in after me.

As I ran deep into the forest I was suddenly attacked by a Caterpie. I was tackled and sent spiraling into the ground and hit a tree. I growled staring at it, "Wh-what the heck was that for?!" I snapped at it. It started to make angry noises as it charged at me again! Before it hit me, Ricky came out of nowhere. Firing a Water Gun at it. The Caterpie was hit directly and sent flying. The totodile grabbed my hand, as if it could be called a hand anymore, and started to lead me further into the forest.

"Man, you're an idiot! This is a friggin' mystery dungeon! Pokemon will attack you!" he scolded at me, as I looked behind myself and indeed he was right! Pokemon were right behind us, trailing close behind. A Cascoon then shot a string shot. Ricky then made a sharp turn to the left. It was then I realized that the mystery dungeon aspect of this world, was like a maze.

"Hang on!" he warned me. I looked back at him and he jumped in a hole in the ground. I closed my eyes and could feel the wind rushing on my face. We suddenly slammed onto the ground, my feet shook from the recoil as I fell onto my knees.

There was a sudden buzzing sound all around us as something whirled. A yellow blur quickly caught my eyes. "W-What the heck?" Ricky then shot a Water gun attack at it. The blur quickly dropped something. I reacted quickly as I held out my arms to catch what it was. It was the Caterpie that I saw the Beedrill carrying! I figured that blur must be the Beedrill! Ricky then shoved me down as the Beedrill went for a dive! coming at us with a Fury attack! Ricky took the attack for me growling.

"D-Don't just stand there man!" he snapped at me.

I shook, "B-But I don't know what to do!" I said, looking confused and scared. Ricky continue to hold his arms out while taking the attacks. I could tell he was feeling pretty hurt while taking those Beedrill stings. "T-Try this!" I acted quick. Jumping at the Beedrill, and scratching at it with my claws. I then got this bright idea and inhaled, all of a sudden I felt a heat in my throat and then opened my mouth.

When I did so, I released Embers! I could tell the Beedrill wasn't expecting it, and slid to the ground as it caught fire. I held on tightly to the Caterpie. Ricky grabbed onto me. There was an opening in the bottom floor. I didn't notice at first, but Ricky sure knew. It was the exit. "Let's get outta here man!" he said, dragging me along.

We ran back outside the Mystery Dungeon, and over toward the Butterfree. I handed the Caterpie over toward her, placing him down softly on the ground. Giving a relieved sigh, "H-Here you are." I said, clearly out of breath. I was definitely out of shape. "Thank you very much!" The Caterpie spoke too, "T-Thanks! Y-You two were awesome." I heard Ricky make a snide comment, "Geez this guy sucks."

"Are you two a rescue team?" Caterpie asked, his eyes shined in a rather admirable sight. I tilted my head, "Rescue te-" Ricky jabbed me in my stomach, cutting me off. "Yep! Definitely!" Caterpie swayed a bit in joy, "AWESOME!" It was then Butterfree started thanking and praising us, but my mind wandered elsewhere to try and pay attention.

"What am I doing here?"

"Why am I a Charmander?"

"Will I ever get back home?"

I spaced out for quite a bit, dwelling on things. Ricky snapped his fingers in front of me, "Dude." I snapped out of it, and looked around Caterpie, and his mother were gone, "Eh?" Ricky rolled his eyes, he had some items in his hands, "C'mon." he said as he started walking away. I followed behind him.

"Where are we going?" I asked cocking my head to the side in curiosity. "Ain't it obvious dude? You gotta have somewhere to sleep. It sure as hell ain't gonna be with me." I sighed, figuring Ricky was gonna be a handful, "So, how about it? You and me, forming a Rescue Team? I mean you weren't completely an idiot." I growled, and my tail flared up a little bit, "What do you expect from someone who's never been a Pokemon before?! I'm a human!" I snapped at him.

Ricky looked back at me, his eyes half-lidded as we continued on the pathway, "Uh, yeah… right… sure…" he spoke like he didn't believe me. I groaned, this guy wanted to form a team with me? We soon came up to a little shack, it looked kind of like a rundown, old beaten, hut of sorts. I looked up at it, "You want to stick me in here?"

"Alderin, dude, I already told you, you sure as hell aren't sticking with me."

I facepalmed, "No need to be such a jerk Ricky." Ricky promptly dropped the items, and poked me rather roughly, "No need to be such an ass, Alderin." he shot back at me. I growled, and he growled back, and then I turned and folded my arms. "What are we calling ourselves anyway, if you want to be this 'team' or whatever?" he gave a blank look.

We spent the next ten minutes, bouncing names one after another. Until finally Ricky shouted, "UNCHARTOTODILED!" I blinked as it echoed. "Un...char...what?" I asked tilting my head. He nodded, "Unchartotodiled! It's cool cause it has both 'char' from Charmander and well, Totodile from...well ...Totodile…" he said, trying to explain himself.

There was an awkward silence.

"Unchartotodiled it is, then." I said, giving a thumbs up, "Alright see ya tomorrow." Ricky said, and with that, he started walking back on the path without a care or another word in the world. I blinked, promptly confused.

"Well, screw you too then." I said, to myself, shutting the door. I looked around, the place looked actually quite well kept up! I stretched out, and walked over toward a pile of hay in the room, and fell asleep.

I'm gonna have a lot of fun with these two in the future! Haha! See you guys again soon!
