The Meeting
I started to wake up a bit but I couldn't feel any thing, I couldn't see that well either since it was night and every thing was pitch black. I waited awhile and after what seemed like a few minutes, I got up by using both my right and left legs as support and got the rest of me to stand, and soon after walk. The first thing I did was walk deeper into the forest, no use going back to lab where every thing I knew and loved was destroyed...and killed. Then the image of shot through my mind, and the innocent souls that were lost during the fire; I couldn't bare it like I couldn't bare facing the fact that I was a coward for running away from Cloner X2 when I could of faced him, but no I had to run. I stopped, and turned to the skies...it began to rain and hard, so I took a look around and found a gnarled old oak tree and took shelter underneath it. It was cold, damp, and gloomy, I felt pretty lonely without the other clones to be here...right beside me. Oh how I miss them so. I began to remember the wonderful memories that I had with the other clones, and how kind they were to me an- just then my ears started to pick up something...something big. I started to crawl out from underneath the tree when a black orb struck me in the head, it felt like a thousand needles injecting themselves into my face at once...I couldn't bare it. I quickly got up and tried to run but was suddenly grabbed my neck and held to the ground, by a... Zoroark? Then a group of pokemon began to form a circle around me, they were all growling, hissing, snarling, and the rest were making all kinds of weird noises. They all seem to be angry...angry at me! But why?
I struggled under the hold of the zoroark but it had a firm grip. " Please let me go!" I cried
It just kept on holding me down on the ground and it wouldn't let me go, then just when the other pokemon were going to jump and attack I was thrown twenty feet off the ground, and it was coming at me with a fury swipe.
" rrrrraaarrr!" it growled
I heard the cracking of bones when I made contact to the soft yet hard ground, with me two feet away and close to the edge of the fast river currents, and it two feet away from me and ready for another attack I knew I was a goner. Then it jumped and landed in front of me and came at me with another fury swipe and then finished it off with a shadow ball right under me. I tried to balance myself by standing on both my hind legs but then a Pikachu came at me with a bolt tackle which sended me falling down into the fast moving currents.
" Noooo...!" I tried to scream
At times I was above water then below and kept on bumping into rocks. After awhile my head felt fuzzie and my sight soon became blurry, I could barely keep my eyes open for even a second. My breaths became short and my lungs began to fill with water...and my heart slowed each passing moment...is this...the end...for...me...?
A gigantic pokemon, terrakion was his name? came towards the stream and took a sip but soon stopped; after seeing a tiny form covered in bruises and scratches sleeping, or what appeared to look like it laying on the grass filled area looking at peace, but he looked closely and saw that it was barely moving...and breathing! He began to walk towards the body and moved it in a different position, trying to help it breath a bit better. He tried to wake it up by shaking it back and forth with his horns but still nothing, then he tried gently put a bit of pressure on its chest and released and did the same thing again and again. Then suddenly it fluttered open its eyes and soon coughed out a huge amount of water, but soon after passed out. He gently placed it on his back and took it to a drier area. He saw a patch of leaves and places it there and waited for it to awake from its sleep.
I could see nothing nor here anything but I knew one thing, I'm still alive and cold. But how could I still be alive? Didn't I die back at the river...or did I make it? It doesn't matter any more I just have to focus on my journey...what ever it may be. After a few minutes I tried to open my eyes but couldn't, so I forced them open and to my dismay they did not open. So I tried to get up with my eyes closed, and I instantly fell on my knees. Just when I was about to try and stand up again I felt something strange underneath me...leaves I think they were called? But how? Well it didn't matter now I had to keep on moving before I get attacked again. Just when I was half way up my knees buckled, and fell but didn't since something strange caught me before I hit the ground again. It was smooth, cold, and thick...like a horn.
" Need any help?" a rough yet soothing voice asked me
" W-who's there?" I asked a bit panicked
" Just me" it answered
" Me who?"
" Well Terrakion" he said " And you are?" he asked
" C-cloner X" I told him
" Cloner?" he said confused
Though I couldn't see him I could sense his presence and be able to locate where he stood.
" I came from a lab" I admitted
" A lab huh? Well I haven't seen a lab around here" he said
" That's because it was hidden but now its destroyed" I said " And now I'm on a journey...even though I don't know what it is I feel deep down in my heart that it is to protect...to protect those weaker then I" I explained
I sensed him move a bit closer to me and stopped.
" Then would you like to become a sword of justice?" he asked
" If it has to do with my journey then yes"
" Great! But you need to open your eyes first" he chuckled
I tried one more time and to my surprise they opened, and I finally saw who that voice belonged to. Within a moment I fell on my back surprised at how gigantic he was, but realized that he was no threat at all.
" Thought I would be smaller?" he laughed
I just nodded.
Then to my surprise he lifted me on to his back and he walked farther into the forest.
" Mind if I call you Crition instead?" he asked
" Why?" I asked him
He thought for a moment " Don't know but just thought it would be better then calling you Cloner X" he said
Then I thought for a moment " Alright" I agreeded
He smiled at me and I smiled back him, and then continued on into the forest with me resting on his back thinking about all that has happened to me, and how lucky I was to still be alive.
