Connor opened his eyes and saw nothing
No trees, no buildings, no ground, no sky
Just a black void
Connor tried to looked around and realized he couldn't
His head must be stuck somewhere
Connor called out, trying to call for help but strangely he couldn't feel his mouth
No sound was coming out either
Strange, he must be parallized or something
As he waited nothing happened and as time went on Connor began to wonder if time was actually passing at all
It sure felt like time was passing but he had no way to prove it
Time is procieved by the mental state of the mind
If someone is happy time appears to go faster where's if someone was bored then time would appear to go slower
For Connor it was impossible to tell how fast time was going
He didn't feel any strong emotions at the moment and for some reason he couldn't remember getting out of bed this morning
'maybe I was kidnapped' Connor thought to himself
That would explain why his body was knumb and he couldn't feel it
And maybe the darkness was just a bag over his head
That was it
But who would kidnap him? He never bothered anybody and his family definitely wasn't rich enough to pay a ransom
Connor consider the situation and as he did something happen
A light appeared
Maybe it was a rip in the bag, except it's a little too bright
Staring deeper into the light Connor saw something emerge
A white deer with a golden ring around it stood Infront of the light and as Connor watched it it turned its attention towards him
Connor knew who the thing Infront of him was
'Arceus'
'yes it is me' Arceus said mentally to Connor 'and before you ask, yes Pokémon are real'
'you can hear my thoughts?' Connor asked the entity Infront of him
'i can, and I am here because you were not suppose to die so early' Arceus said
'I DIED?!' Connor yelled in shock
Was that why he couldn't feel his body, was he murmured, he never said goodbye to his family
'be calm' Arceus said in a comforting tone 'it is quite rare that this should happen so i shall give you another life, do not worry for you place has already been chosen so this chance is just for you to enjoy'
connor was confused 'so I can be myself again?'
'i am afraid not' Arceus said 'you cannot return to your world, instead I will allow you to enter into the world of Pokémon, I will allow you to choose how you wish to be'
'so I could be a Pokémon?' Connor asked
'of course, except unfortunately I cannot allow you to become a legendary Pokémon as that would upset the natural order of things' Arceus said getting a bit closer to Connor
'tell me what you wish to be' Arceus said
Connor thought for a moment until his mind settled
'i wish to be a Mimikyu' Connor said
'very well' Arceus said
'hang on' Connor said
'what?' Arceus asked
'i would like to ask a favour' Connor said quietly
'go on' Arceus replied
'well I was wondering if I could chose some of my moves and abilities' Connor said
Arceus considerd this for a few seconds 'very well, what do you ask for?'
'well first of all I would appreciate if I had the ability to teleport' Connor said
'Mimikyu cannot teleport but very well, what else?' Arceus said
'well there are a few moves I would like to know, phantom force, intimidate, dark pulse and dream eater' Connor said, setting something up in his head
'very well, I shall allow you to have 1 more request' Arceus said
Connor thought for a few seconds before It finally came to him 'I would like it if you would make me stronger than a normal mimikyu, but not a totem Pokémon' Connor said
'that is a tricky one' Arceus said thoughtfully 'but I will try'
Arceus closed his eyes and a light appeared around where Connor assumed his face was
Arceus caused Connor to float closed to him and Arceus said 'i hope you don't come to regret your decision later, good luck' before Connor found that he was no longer in a black void
Instead it was just black, but as his eyes adjusted to the low light level he realised he was in a rag of some kind
Shuffling around a bit Connor managed to find two eye holes and looked around
He was low to the ground
He could see under bushes and as he adjusted the rag ontop of him he recalled his talk with Arceus
Somehow he had completely forgotten it for a few seconds but now he remembered and this was his new chance at life
