ENJOY THE CHAPTER!
As Dan was approaching his house after leaving at the middle of the night to follow his new friend, he checked the time on his pokedex and it said that it was 7:20am.
His eyes widened as he saw the time, it would be around 10 minutes before his parents woke up and notice that he was gone. He looked down on himself and he saw that he was even still wearing his nightclothes, but now they were ripped, muddy and wet because of his earlier adventure.
He took out Luke's pokeball, pointed it at him and said "Return" The red Riolu then took a quick step to the right and dodged the red laser, Dan pointed it again once more and said "Return" another red light shot out from the pokeball but once again the agile little fighting type dodged the beam once more.
Dan sighed, scratched his hair and said "Guess you don't want to go back in there too, don't you Luke?" The red Pokemon nodded. Dan looked at Luke and then at Jordan who was sitting on his shoulder and said "Were going to have to be very quiet you understand?" Both Pokemon nodded. "Alright then, let's roll."
The newbie trainer then quickly approached the front door, pulled out his keys from his pocket and slowly opened the door, careful not to make a sound. The trio then slowly shut and locked the door, quiet not to attract any attention.
They then slowly crept up the flight of stairs, wincing as each step he took resulted in a creek. When they finally reached the top of the stairs and were creeping towards Dan's room, Luke accidentally hit a stand where a vase was placed. The stand wobbled as the Riolu tried to steady it.
Dan and Jordan turned around to see that the little jackal was struggling with the vase, Dan and Jordan's eyes widened with horror; he quickly crept back there to steady the vase. When he finally did it he looked at Luke who was staring at him intently with a blank expression as always, Dan would ask him about that later and why did he run off, but for now he just put a finger to his lips and gestured at him to be quiet, the little Riolu nodded at the pair.
When Dan turned around, he was startled when a familiar voice said "Hi Dan!" He choked and then silently crashed to the ground anime style. He blinked and saw that it was Cleo, her hair was all messy from sleep, and she was wearing her white pajamas and was holding her Jigglypuff doll with one hand as she was rubbing her eyes. Dan then quietly said "Hi Cleo, what are you doing this early?"
Cleo then started blabbering "Oh nothing, I just heard something downstairs and I checked it out. What are you doing? Why are you all dirty? What is that?" She said pointing at Luke who was standing behind Dan. You see, Cleo might be a bit shy at times but when she starts talking, she's a motor mouth.
Dan and Jordan sweat dropped while Luke tilted his head as he was looking at Cleo go on and on and on about anything she could think off. Dan put his hand to Cleo's mouth to stop her from talking and said "Cleo, you will slowly go back to your room and come out later okay? My journey starts today and I have to get ready alright. Now I'm going to remove my hand from your mouth and I will not hear another word okay?" Cleo nodded.
Dan slowly removed his hand from her mouth and she obediently walked back to her room, Dan sighed with relief and crept to his door with Luke and Jordan, but suddenly Cleo slammed her door hard and caused a lot of noise. Dan then ran to his room where he put his pokeballs on his bed, checked the clock which read 7:29am, he sighed and thought "Thank Arceus Mom and Dad are heavy sleepers and I got one minute to spare." He then turned to both of his Pokemon and said "Stay here, I'll just get a shower."
Dan grabbed his towel and extra clothes then ran to the bathroom where he took a shower and cleaned himself up from last night. Dan put on his clothes which were a black shirt, a red vest with a pokeball design on it, black jeans, his belt of pokeballs and a pair of blue sneakers. Dan tried to comb his hair (Again…) but failed to do so.
When he was finished, he felt great because he wasn't wearing clothes that have been ripped and splattered on. He got a towel for Jordan and Luke to clean off the mud from their fur, but when he got back, Jordan was looking at a pokeball that was on the bed, it was the same in that was in the box that appeared on his bed. He gave the towel to Jordan so he could clean up, he then picked up the pokeball and said "You really are a piece of work you know that?"
He looked to Jordan who popped his head out of the towel and smiled at him, he then looked at his clock which read 7:39am. Dan quickly leapt to it and pulled the plug before it could alarm at 7:40am. Dan once again looked at Jordan and said "Let's get ready buddy." The little mouse Pokemon did a fist pump and leaped on his shoulders as Dan picked up his bag filled with supplies and opened the door to see that his parents were starting to leave their room and Cleo was nowhere to be seen.
Dan and Jordan smiled at each other that nobody had noticed that they were gone for the night, he climbed down the stairs and greeted his dad who had Pikachu on his shoulders and said "Hey dad! Morning!"
Ash yawned and ruffled Dan's hair and said "Hey Danny, we will have breakfast soon, just relax and watch TV then we will have your send-off." Dan smiled and nodded at his dad, just as his dad passed him he said "Oh yeah, wake up your uncle Morrison too."
Dan groaned because he had to wake up his uncle, sure he was a fun guy but the man slept heavier than his dad and his Snorlax combined; now he guessed his dad was messing with him. Dan walked over to the guestroom with Jordan and knocked on the door then opened it. He laughed silently because his uncle was sleeping in a weird position. The top half of his body was off the bed and he was drooling.
Dan was grossed out and amazed at the same time, he then looked to the side where his uncle's pokeballs were, he usually used his Pokemon to wake him up, but Dan had to be careful because the last time he was careless, he ended up releasing Metagross inside the small guestroom and the time before that he accidentally smashed half the house because he accidentally released his uncle's Steelix in the house.
He picked up a pokeball he recognized and let loose the Pokemon inside, in a flash of light a small yellow Pokemon with a gigantic maw on the back of its head was standing on the floor. The small Pokemon cheerfully said "Mawile! (Hi Dan!)" Dan greeted back and Jordan waved at the Pokemon as well.
Dan smiled and said "Hey Mawile, could you do that thing again? Uncle Morrison is sleeping like a rock as usual." The Mawile nodded and held up three fingers, gesturing for one, two or three. Dan then said "Surprise me."
Dan took a few steps back as Mawile put her giant maw at her trainer's backside, the mouth then crackled with electricity and then it chomped down on the sleeping trainer's behind. Morrison's eyes shot open and he yelled "YAAAAOOOOWWWW!"
Dan and Jordan snickered as Morrison shook and lit up with electricity from Mawile's Thunder Fang. He then fell to the ground, swiped Mawile's pokeball from Dan and said "Thanks Mawile, return." He then opened one eye and glanced at Dan and said "Thanks for the wakeup call Danny, I'll be right up as soon as I feel my legs."
Dan laughed nervously and left the room with his uncle paralyzed on the floor. He then went to the living room, hopped on the couch and turned on the TV so he could pass time as his mother and grandma was cooking breakfast.
He turned the channel to the news channel and the reporter was starting his report that interested Dan.
"There have been sightings of strange men in uniforms that have a large green letter G on it and a small M beside it. These people have been reported to have stolen Pokemon from trainers and have similar intentions from organizations like Team Rocket, Team Galactic and Team Plasma. Trainers are advised to be careful and watchful of their surroundings."
"Here we have a victim of the group" The TV showed a young trainer with blue hair around the age of 13 who looked like he was close to tears and he said "These guys stole my precious Pokemon, like my Charmeleon and Kadabra. If anyone knows anything about this group please say what you can."
The camera then turned back to the reporter and he said "Please be careful and have a good day."
Dan sat back on the couch and said "Dang Jordan, did you hear that? There are people going around and stealing Pokemon." The Pichu was busy opening a bottle of ketchup he found on the stand near the couch and said "Pichu Pi Pi Chu Chu Pi Chu Pi Chu Pi Cha Pi Chu Pi (Your right, I guess we should watch out then, now help me with this.)" The rodent said holding up the bottle to Dan.
The purple haired boy laughed and opened the bottle then gave it to the little yellow mouse that eagerly swiped it from his hands and started to slurp the condiment. Just then a voice said "Dan, breakfast time!"
Dan quickly got up and ran to the dining room where he saw that everyone was already sitting down and ready to eat, he ran to his chair and started to eat bacon with eggs while Jordan hopped down and ran to his parents then started to eat Pokemon food. Everyone was eating quickly until a bright flash appeared from Dan's belt and it materialized into Luke the Riolu who was standing on the floor with yet another blank expression on his face.
Ash choked on his food and said "Hey, that's a Riolu, and an oddly colored one too. Where did you get it Dan?" Dan looked at Luke and gave him a bowl of Pokemon food; he sat on the ground and started to eat the food with his eyes closed. Dan looked at his father and said "Dad, last night when I came down for a glass of water, I hear noises upstairs, when I got to my room, the window that I closed was open and there was a box on my bed that had a note. It says that the note was from Skylar, he told me to take care of him because he would be a great friend."
Ash looked at his wife and Iris looked intently at Dan's eyes "So is that all that happened?" she asked in a mocking tone, as if she knew what happened last night.
Dan gulped and said "Yeah mom, that's all that happened." But then Cleo piped up and said "How come when I saw you this morning you were all muddy and your clothes were ripped?" Dan's eyes widened and Jordan face palmed.
Iris beamed at her son and said "What did Cleo say Dan? Is that true? Come on Dan, only little kids lie." Dan looked at his mother's glare and then at Jordan, who gestured at him to say no, but Pikachu and ChuChu were glaring at him and he sat down, realizing that he was busted.
Dan sighed and laughed nervously then said "Yeah, but I can explain." He said holding up his hands. He then started "When I opened Luke's pokeball" he said pointing at the eating Riolu "He leapt out the window so I had to go and follow him, me and Jordan went at the forest in the middle of the night to look for him, after a while we followed him to a ditch. It started to rain when we saw him and he fell of the cliff of I jumped after him and we fell to the bottom of the ditch"
Iris' eyes widened and she said in a concerned tone "So you left in the middle of the night and fell off a cliff?" Dan nodded then Ash said "Come on Iris, calm down, at least he is fine, right Dan?"
Dan nodded and said "Yeah mom I'm fine, just a few scratches but I'm fine." Morrison then said "So what happened after that?"
Dan then said "We came face to face with the same Nidoking when I was 6 and Jordan tried to battle him alone because Luke was unconscious but then when Jordan was down and I tried to protect him and as the Nidoking was about to smash us, we were saved by Luke and his red Aura Sphere. We eventually defeated him and made him run off."
Ash looked at his son and said "You beat a wild Nidoking with a Pichu and a Riolu? Also that Riolu knew Aura Sphere? They could only learn that when they turn into a Lucario"
Dan shrugged and then said "Then after that we climbed up the ditch and when we got to the top, you won't believe this, but we saw Ho-Oh."
Morrison looked dumbfounded and said "You saw Ho-Oh? Amazing Dan, all my life I haven't seen it yet." Ash nodded and said "Dan, seeing Ho-Oh on your first day is good, you know they say it means that you will have good luck on your journey."
Dan said "That's cool dad! Now I can't wait to start my journey!" he picked up his bag and readied himself up after that heavy breakfast. Ash then stood up and gave him a wad of cash and said "Here, this is for your journey, spend it well and do not waste it alright?" Dan nodded excitedly.
Dan then got up and left his house with his family, uncle and Pokemon, they went to the gate of Pallet town where he would depart for his journey, there he saw his Uncle Tracey and Uncle Gary waiting for him to send off as well.
When they got there he was ready to leave, Ash then said "Good luck Danny, I wish you the best and have fun meeting new people and seeing new sights." He hugged his dad and he saw Jordan hug the two Pikachus.
Iris then stepped forward and said "Danny, good luck alright? Watch out and don't act like a little kid like your father did."
Dan heard his dad say "Hey I was not!" Iris giggled and continued "Just remember win or lose, we were always proud of you." She hugged her son and then Morrison came forward.
Morrison put his hand on Dan's shoulder, gave a hearty laugh and said "Do well on your journey Danny, win the Pokemon League then we'll see if you can take on your uncle in a real battle."
Dan laughed and replied "Sure uncle. Jordan, Luke lets go." He called for the two Pokemon who were with the Pikachus.
Dan was walking away with Jordan and Luke and he yelled "Bye guys! Bye Mom! Bye Dad! Bye Cleo! I'll call when I get to Viridian city!"
Dan then turned to his Pokemon when his family was out of sight and said "Well I guess this is the start of our journey, let's make the best of it and do our best!" Jordan grinned and did a fist pump while Luke silently walked beside him and nodded with once again a blank expression.
Dan looked up to the sky with his partners and thought about what great adventures they would encounter on his journey.
