This chapter, I'm going to start out from Eiji's perspective. Each chapter will from now on be either from an OC's perspective or from the gang's perspective.
"Okay, Eevee, use Shadow Ball!" Eiji yelled. Eevee quickly charged up the Shadow Ball, then hurled it toward its opponent. "Dodge it, Cubone!" However, the
Cubone, instead of dodging it, ran behind the shelter of a nearby tree, then peeked out, trembling. Eiji sighed. They were currently in the Viridian Forest, heading
toward Viridian City. Eiji had figured that they might as well stop for some training, but so far, no luck. It was unfair, really. One of his brothers was a leading
Pokémon professor, while the other was a famous Pokémon breeder. Why did he have to be a slip-up? He had set out on a Pokémon journey with his starter
Pokémon, Eevee, to become great like his brothers, but all of his victories were flukes. He had caught his Gastly when it had appeared out of nowhere, scaring him.
In his panic, he had flung his Pokéball, catching Gastly. He had earned the Boulder Badge when Brock's Onix had hit the sprinkler system and caused them to go
off. He had caught his Abra when it teleported in front of him, startling him so he lost his balance and fell on top of it, knocking it out. He had won the Cascade
Badge when a crack developed in the pool during the battle, making Misty's Water Pokémon useless. The only time something wasn't a fluke was his Cubone, and it
was shy and easily intimidated. Speaking of Cubone… Eiji walked over to get it out of behind the tree. Upon seeing him, the Cubone fled, startled. "Hey, Cubone,
wait! Come back!" he yelled, chasing it into the forest. He ran through the thick, tall grass, dodging trees and tree branches. Suddenly, his foot caught on
something. "Oof!" he yelped, falling to the ground. He twisted his neck around to see what he had tripped on. It was a pendant shaped like an upside-down
pyramid. There were complicated patterns on it, almost like a labyrinth, with the Eye of Horus on the front. Eiji reckoned it was made of 24 karat gold. It was
attached to a heavy iron chain. He stood up, putting the necklace on. He noticed Cubone watching him curiously. "Cubone, return!" he shouted, pointing the
Pokéball at Cubone. A red beam of light shot out from the button of the Pokéball, pulling the Pokémon in. He attached the Pokéball to his belt. "Ee!" Eevee called.
Eiji jumped. "Oh, it's just you, Eevee," Eiji chuckled, embarrassed. "Okay, let's go back. We've already gone too far off from the forest trail, and it's getting late." He
turned around to go back, but where there was a path before, there was a giant web. He turned around again, only to find another web. Panicked, he glanced
around the clearing. The entire area was covered with webbing, and right above them was an Ariados.
No, Kate, I will NOT include you in the Author Notes. The last thing I need is your singing driving me more insane than I already am. Sorry I didn't update when I said I would. I caught the deadly disease known as Writer's Block. (and hypothermia.) R&R, everyone!
