Chapter 1: The Tidings of a New World

 

    I have awakened this morning to not the normal, steady fan winds that I usually wake up to. Instead, I look up and I feel hot and its pitch black, nothing to be shown. I start feeling cooler as a wind starts to blow, but yet it also speaks. It tells me, "John." I just reply asking, "Is the wind... speaking to me!?" I was in a shock to hear something like this. I thought I might have been losing my mind. The wind is going, speaking to me again saying, "The PokeWorld is in devastation and you are needed to save it. Your human form will be lost in this though, so what do you want to be?" As was not so shocked afterwards because I started thinking *I knew this is a dream.* I replied to the question saying, "I know this might be some crazed up dream, but count me in. I've always wanted to be a Riolu."

 

    Light enveloped me in intense rays that seemed like it would blind a normal human, but as the light disappeared, I was hanging in the air without noticing at first. "Phew," I said, "at least I'm not blinded." I look down though and I see that I am like hundreds of feet in the air. I was wanting to say god damn it, but I fell and screamed instead. I crashed into the ground, for now I was thinking that I was surely dead, but I hear a girl's voice. She sounded like a normal 13 year-old girl would sound like, but a little hint of shyness in there. I opened my eyes and slowly lifted up. Her voice was clearer now then it was before.

 

    "Are you hurt? Are you okay? Please, answer me!"

 

    I got up and answered, "Yeah, I'm alright. Listen here..." I looked at her and to my surprise, she wasn't human. She looked like a Kirlia, but she also kind of had a punk look. Her supposed to look like hair was black and her skin color was a light sky blue. "This can't be happening. You can't talk, you’re just a Pokémon."

 

    She looked at me in confusion saying, "You don't seem normal. Are you sure you didn't hurt your head when you fell? In fact, how did you fall?"

 

    "What do you mean I'm not normal? You're a Pokémon and I'm human and when and how I fell is not something I can answer. One moment I see a bright light and the next thing, poof. Here I see a Kirlia talking to me."

 

    She held her mouth a little and laughed. "You're so funny. How can anyone be a human if you look like a normal Riolu to me?" I take a look at myself. "Whoa. You're right, I do look like a Riolu." She quickly gets up like she remembered something. "Oh no. I'm late for something. Please, come with me." She grabs my, uh paw, I guess, and pulls me towards a cave looking entrance. Before that, there appears to be a broken bridge.

 

    "Oh no, the bridge is out. This isn't really a problem though. After all, I am a Psychic type." She raises both her and me across the bridge and we get across like nothing. I just look in amazement. As we step down on the other side of the bridge, she turns towards me and says, "My name is Karry by the way. What's yours?" I answered, "The name is John." "Nice to meet you John, now let’s hurry. The meeting place is up ahead."

                Along the way, I decided to start up a conversation. "So, what do you usually do?" Karry replied, "Oh, well, I usually just explore a bit and hang out around town. What about you?" I gave a wide-eye stare at here, then spoke up, "Um... well, you will find this weird because you are a Pokémon, but I play video games and hang out on the Internet. I never socialize." Karry just went and replied, confused-like, "Ok... You are one crazy Pokémon." I just face-smacked myself.

 

    We run up ahead towards a really rocky and dusty place. There doesn't seem to be anything except for a tent that looks like a shop, a couple of gates, a place to put up banners, two boards, and some counter in front of a board. There is also a small wooden bridge in front of us that goes above a small stream. A Quagsire comes up from the stream and talks to Karry like it knows her or something. It speaks, "Ah, did you bring the money today?" Karry answers, "Yep," she brings out some coin-like objects, "2,000 Poke, just like we promised." "Hmm, splendid. Now all this land is yours Karry." He takes a look towards me. "Hmm, who is this Riolu? His presence doesn't seem like any other Pokémon. In fact, it seems a bit human if you ask me."

 

    Karry questions Quagsire. "What do you mean? He's a normal Pokémon. Maybe you’re just getting to old." Quagsire responds, "You might be right, but then again, I haven't seen a Riolu in five years. It's quite strange for one to appear again too, but besides that, the land is yours now." She jumps in glee and starts yelling, "YEAH! It's finally mine. I can finally make a paradise! I can invite a bunch of Pokémon over and, well, it's easier said than done. I'm very shy and due to this rumor of the distortion of time, it's causing more and more Pokémon to turn bad." Quagsire responds in a sad agreement, "Yes, this is true. Besides, it seems like hard work for you to do. You think you can, hmm, handle a responsibility like this?" I just stand and wonder to all this, thinking, *It seems like it would be great to work with this Kirlia named Karry for a while. Maybe I will discover what the hell is going on here?*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 2: Exploration Team & Quest

 

    As Quagsire and Karry were trying to determine whether I was human or a crazed Pokémon, which I'm in fact human (that's a no brainer), I saw a male figure flying this way. "Who's that?" I said out-loud. Quagsire turned and saw the figure. "Hmm, Soul is coming to say goodbye to me. I've, hmm, decided not to leave here though." Karry asked, in surprisement, "SOUL!? You mean the leader of G.E.M.!?" Quagsire answered, "Yes. He's been my friend for quite, hmm, some time."

 

    I just watched the figure, who they called Soul, land on the ground. He appears human, but is a Black Latios. "How strange." I thought.

 

    "Hey Quagsire," he says, "I can't believe you’re going to go. It's pretty sad after we've been friends for a few years."

 

    "I actually won't be leaving. I'm tending to stay here and have my shop here." He points to a tent, "I'm going to help these two out."

 

    "Well, that's a relief. By the way, I thought only this Kirlia was buying the land. Where did this Riolu come from?"

 

    Karry responds to Soul, "Um, I actually found this Riolu on the ground. He looked like he was dead, but he's alive, as you can see. It turns out, he's mostly crazy because he claims he's a human. We all know that-" Soul interrupts saying, "Your right. He's human. He appears as a Pokémon, but he actually was called upon by some force to be here in the Pokémon World. Anyways though, it's not much of a deal. It's great having more Pokémon here, as long as they're nice."

 

    I couldn't believe what I have heard. Soul said that I was human, which is true, but I wasn't expecting this. I just went ahead and asked, "Excuse me Soul, but what is G.E.M.?" A Shaymin in Sky Form, who seems to have a scarf and a gracidea flower in it. "Hi! You’re wondering what G.E.M. is? Well, G.E.M. is short for, ' Guilders of Exploration Members.' What we basically do, or should I say Soul and Sue does, is that we recruit members for becoming an exploration team." Karry said, "Can we become one?" Soul replied, "Sure. Just tell me your guys' team name. What would it be?" Karry was trying to think of a name, but she can't seem to come up with one. I'm not sure what a good name would be, but I had to bring up a good name. I'm trying to save this world as a Pokémon and Heroes save the world, so I then blurted out, "The PokeHero Team." Karry gave me a smile, thinking that it was good.

 

    "Good, now just hold out your hands or paws." Karry holds out her hand and I hold out my paw. Soul seems to be gathering a small lightning bolt, and then he shocked us a bit with it. "You are now an official Exploration Team." Karry just jumped in cheer as she was waiting for this, it seems. "I'm so happy." She then hugged me. "I'm glad you came along." I kind of blushed and said, "Your welcome."

 

    As Karry got off, an Oshawott came screaming, "HELP! MY FRIENDS HAVE BEEN GONE FOR AN HOUR AND I HAVEN'T SEEN THEM SINCE!" Soul started taking off, "Well, I'll leave you two to this Quest." The Shaymin said, "Bye!" They took off out of sight afterwards.

 

    I turned towards the Oshawott and asked, "Do you know where your friends are? My friend and I are an Exploration Team, we can help you." The Oshawott replied, "Yes I do. Thank you guys. My name is Orio by the way."

 

    Two medals appeared out of the sky and a piece of paper. The medals said, "The PokeHero Team." The paper was an information log. It told us how to operate and work the team. Karry said, "Throw that away. I already know how to work and the information of an Exploration Team." It seems Karry knows more that she looks. Orio said, "Follow me to the Refreshing Springs."

 

    We have followed him to this fountain-like pool. Orio exclaimed, "They went behind that waterfall!" We look behind the fountain and saw a waterfall. "There is a cave in there. I need you to help me to save Sheila the Snivy and Tiny the Tepig." I responded, "Don't worry. We can do this!"

 

 

    Far along the cave, we see a Snivy and a Tepig. "Come on Tiny. You said you would grab a gem to impress her and you seem to chicken out." Tiny, the Tepig, replies, "Oh. I don't know which one to pick. They all look pretty. Sheila, how about you pick one for me." Sheila, the Snivy, replies, "Alright! Just so we get out of here. Orio is probably worried." She grabs a gem from the wall. "Come on Tiny." They turn and see us with Orio. I step up and ask, "Are you two Sheila and Tiny? We were sent here by Orio to-" Sheila releases Vine Whip on me before I could finish. "FIEND! ORIO, GET OVER HERE!" Orio explains, "No please, don't hurt them. They came with me to find you. I was hoping to be a little more cautious with this Exploration Team. I didn't know if there was dangers or not." Sheila said, with sorrow in her voice, "Oh. I'm sorry. I though you kidnapped him." I'm not very conscious right now, so I can't speak. Karry runs towards me saying, "JOHN! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?!" I seem to lose most consciousness afterwards. "Guys, come help me! He's knocked out. We need to get him back to the hut.

 

    Tiny says, with a bit of shyness in his voice, "I'll carry him. It'll be easier that way." Karry sets me on her back and we all seem to get out. I lost all consciousness afterwards.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 3: The Few Nights…

 

                As I slowly have woken up from being knocked out, I noticed that we were in a hut. It feels and looks like a house, but it’s a hut. I know this because it was something I noticed when we first came here; came to, Paradise.

 

                I looked over and saw Orio, Sheila, and Tiny sound asleep. I can’t blame them though because it was a busy day and they were separated for a while. I looked at what they were sleeping on and it appeared to be cotton. It was weird, but it seemed to be used as a bedding material. “Cotton?” I said a little quietly because I didn’t want to wake them up. “It’s good to see you awake John.” I turned around and saw that Karry was laying on the same kind of bedding; cotton. She had a grin on her face that seemed to be like she had fun, but then her face turned into sorrow soon after. “Listen John,” she started out, “I’m sorry for pretending to not believe you about you being human.” I was baffled. I stated, and questioned, in confusement, “You were, pretending?” She looked down, in shyness, “Yeah, I pretended not to believe you.”

 

                “Why would you do something like that?!” I asked, probably too loud though. She told me to keep my voice down and then answered, “Well, like you, Pokémon didn’t believe me when I said I was a human either. They thought I was crazy and-. “ I interrupted her asking, “Wait. You were a human too?” Karry looked up and replied, “Yeah. It was a while, but a few years ago, I was sent her by a mysterious voice, but it seemed to have disappeared soon after I became a Kirlia.” I was thinking about the voice was the same I heard, but that means I would be stuck here too.

 

                We decided to pull our beds together and sleep with each other, but only because I was cold in this old hut and she wanted to warm me. Plus, she said it was a bit uncomfortable alone. I’m used to having a blanket over me, but I ended up sleeping first anyways, but, I wasn’t feeling so cold afterwards.

 

                The next morning, I was woken up by Sheila’s disturbing yelling. “WAKE UP YOU TWO LOVEBIRDS!!” When I woke up, I started blushing because while looking up, Karry was laying on top of me, and we were hugging. Karry opened her eyes as well, and just like me, she was blushing. She got off of me and then we stood up, facing Sheila. “Well, how did you two have fuunn last night?” She had extended the word, fun, which I replied to her saying, “Oh god! That’s just wrong thinking! Why the hell would you imply that we would have sex!?”

 

                Sheila gave me a weird look saying, “Sex? Why would I say that? You guys are too young. Besides, I thought you were kissing.” I gave out a little 'humane' thought right there. I just replied saying, “Never mind.” It seems like she’s smarter than she looks. I decided to ask their age after that. “How old are you?” Karry shouted out first, saying, “I’m thirteen years old.” Sheila decided to answer for herself, Orio, and Tiny. “Orio is fifteen years old, I’m twelve years old, and Tiny is eleven years old. How about you?” I replied, “Well, I’m fourteen years old.” I was kind of thinking that I was the oldest, but it seems like Orio beats me by a year.

 

                We headed outside and saw that Orio and Tiny were waiting for us. “So, how did everyone sleep last night?” Asked Tiny. Sheila, acting purvey, said, “Well, I have slept good. Those two over there slept…” Karry interrupted saying, “Wonderful. We slept really well.” She was kind of blushing because we did hug in our sleep. I can’t blame her because I was also blushing.

                After a day of hard work, we managed to get in some training, although Tiny was keeping to get knocked out. Luckily, Quagsire decided to give use 5 Revival Seeds for getting new members in. We found out how each other’s levels as well, although, I don’t see why it’s important when it’s real life battling. Karry’s level was 15, Sheila’s was also 15, Orio’s was 13, Tiny’s was 7, and mine was 16, which they thought was impressive. I really didn’t see it being like that, but a little higher because even though I was pretty lazy at home, I tend to train my mind and my body when I’m feeling a bit sluggish.

 

                Later that night, we were counting the Poke, the supposed money name here, and seeing the items we had. We ended up counting 239 Poke, which wasn’t very high, 5 Oran Berries, 2 Pecha Berries, a Revival Seed was left, and we managed to find some item that Sheila was looking for, called the Electro Earmuffs. If you ask me, they looked more like headphones. She said to listen to the music. God damn, it sounded like that crappy Monstercat music, which everyone of us didn't seem to like, but Sheila did like it. She decided to put them on, which I have to admit, it did look comfy, and she was happy to listen to that music, but then she fell asleep soon after. Orio and Tiny told us, “Goodnight.”

 

                So now, I and Karry were the only ones awake, yet again. We decided to go ahead and chat a little, but I was cold still. “Man, it’s still pretty cold in here. Say, isn’t there a town next to here?” Karry responded, “Yeah, but there’s an admission fee for entering per Pokémon. It’s 100 Poke per Pokémon.” I realized that wasn’t a whole lot, but we only had 239.

 

    “John?” She asked.

     

    “Yeah Karry.”

     

    “Have you ever had a certain feeling for me?”

     

    I was a bit baffled when she asked. Was she meaning love? If that’s what she’s meaning, I do have to admit, I do kind of love her. I went ahead and replied, “Well, maybe I do feel a little, love.” I said that a bit embarrassingly. She didn’t blush, but had replied, with her smile looking at me, “Well, I love you with all my heart!” Was this actually real?! She said she loved me, with all her heart. It was weird. I never had a girl love me and now, one actually loves me. “Well, why is that?” I asked. She’s so happy though. I never had seen her so open. She’s always had a small amount of shyness in her voice. She’s saying, so happily, “Well, even though we meet a few days ago, you seem to make me not so shy anymore. Being around you makes me feel, happy, it makes me feel, comfortable. So, in spite of all that, it made me come to love you John.” So, a girl loved me. I can’t say I blame her, it’s been a few days together, but we need to hurry up and get somebody to upgrade our hut.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

Chapter 4: Improved Town

     

     

    The next morning, I was face to face with Karry, and we were kissed, lip to lip. I pushed her off and said, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?” Karry was so happy, she said, “I love you, like what we said last night.” So, what we said last night was real. I thought it was a dream. “Well, Karry. I don’t love you that much that way yet. We need time to mature together. To kiss after a few days of meeting, it doesn’t seem normal to me like that. Sometime in the future, we might, but for now, let’s not get to do that.” She responded with understanding, “Okay.”

     

    It seemed like Sheila, Orio, and Tiny were already awake and outside because we didn’t see them in their beds this morning. We walked outside and they said, “SURPRISE!” We jumped back after being startled. “What the freak is wrong with you!?” I yelled out instantly. They started being scared because I was the highest level and I yelled a bit too loud. I saw that they were carrying a bunch of Poke with them. Probably 5 large bags full. “Whoa! Did you work last night or this morning?” Tiny answered, with sacredness, “Well… we were actually… going through some dungeons last night and this morning… and we got about 5,000 Poke.” Sheila interrupted, “Yeah. You don’t need to yell at us, okay?” I was sad a bit because I yelled at my friends. “I’m sorry guys. You just surprised me is all.” Sheila went ahead and said, “It’s okay. You were just startled. It ain’t that bad.”

     

    We decided to go to down with our 5,000 Poke and to Karry’s surprise, we got in for free. “Well, this is a surprise.” Karry said aloud. We see a black, female, human-like Latias fly down towards us. “Ah! You two must be the new exploration team my ‘brother,’ Soul told me about. It’s great to see you here! We changed to where anyone can get in here for free.” Karry had a face of the surprisement. She also kind of look dimwitted. “Wow. I’m so surprised. You two must have changed a lot about this town then.”

The Latios kindly spoke out again, “It’s alright Karry. My name is Sue, in case you didn’t know. I’m glad a few Pokemon like you guys were able to join in on out expedition services. Please stay as long as you like.” She then flew off to a glass tower-like place.

 

                Karry started dragging the four of us into a café-like place. It had that café sign so that’s what I thought.

 

                I spoke to her, “Easy now Karry. I know you’re eager and all, but-“

 

                She said in reply, interrupting me “I can’t stop or be easy. We need to come here because this place has the BEST eats here!”

 

                I had to trust her because she was my partner and if I had to trust anyone in this world, it’s my team, for now. As we head inside the café, there seemed to be a commotion around some Pokemon here.

 

                “Wow! They’re so awesome!” a Ratata said.

 

                “I wish that Noivern was building a house for me.” a Herdier said.

 

                I took a look at those Pokemon in the middle. The middle one was, in fact, a Noivern. The Pokemon on the sides though seemed to be two Gurdurr. I've never seen these Pokemon up close before, well, I should say that I haven't seen ANY Pokemon up close. I'm just standing there, a bit awed in mind, but a bit cautious in mind as well. I have a feeling these guys aren't all good. Karry is seemingly surprised as well, but she's still awfully quiet. I wonder why. Maybe because she's still shy? Maybe she's not feeling so good? I don't know. "Hey, um, Karry. Are these Pokemon good?" Karry immediately looking at me, like she forgot I was there. She responded, "Well, yeah. The help make buildings and structures for everyone. Heck, they even helped Soul with his work for building this town. They're not evil at all. What makes you think that?" I did have to say that did make me an idiot, but, it really isn't good to say that about myself. Especially after... actually, better keep that in the back of my mind.

                After the crowd had left, the Gurdurr and Noivern came up to us. The Noivern instantly spoke, in a deep yet subtle voice, "Hey there kids. Need any help with some construction?" Karry is like all worked up right now. She doesn't even know what to speak. Sheila started speaking, "Yeah, we do." Orio seemingly felt like Sheila is going to be rude. Sheila continued, "We need help expanding our area some for something we would like to call Paradise. You mind helping?"

                Orio seemingly thought, or what I think he did, "Phew. Thank Arceus she didn't be so rude." Anyways, turning back to Noivern, he seemed to be happy, with a creepy smile. "Um.. is that smile your normal smile?" I asked. Noivern looked at me weirdly and said, "Well, sorta. Not very common, but it's when I feel like working for someone." They seem to leave soon after, well, Noivern is just wondering something to be honest. "Can you guys, point to where you live? We might set up a shop there and clear some land for ya. We really aren't that good together, mainly because the Gurdurr need to evolve so we can all become a good Carpenter crew, but it's been quite some time since we last did a job." Karry just instantly squeled and said, "Yes! I'll show you!" She doesn't seem to be that shy girl I saw before. She seems quite happy. I just smiled, and me, Orio, Sheila, and Tiny followed them back home.
