Pokemon: Attack the Rattata
From Create Your Own Story
You pull out that "Blue Emerald" dagger from your belt, take off your roller blades (which you had been wearing), and charge into battle. You throw yourself in front of the Sentret, the foot long blade in front of you for protection, as the Rattata comes up for another swoop. It turns out of the way just in time. "Leave the Sentret alone!" you command. Than the Rattata dives at you!
You slash at it, but the blade bounces off as if it were...made of metal. You wildly slash at the Rattata as it attacks the Sentret, who is now covered with scratches. You can always release it later, but the only way to save the poor Sentret now is to capture it. For the split second you reach in to your bag, the Pidgey scratches you right in the face. You let out a scream, but manage to fish out one of the silky Pokéballs. You throw it on the Sentret as blood clogs your vision. The last thing you remember is hearing a battle cry of...."RITA!!!" and seeing Glowing Leaves shoot from out of no where!
You wake up. you try to sit up and your head pounds. You reach up to touch under you right eye to find the warm thick feeling of blood. You start to panic. How much did you loose. And...and wear is Chikorita. Then you hear a sound behind you."Chika?"
Chikorita has a mouth full of leaves. You feel your cut again, and realize it is bandaged with leaves. You look around. the is a Pokéball to your right. Aahh! The Sentret. You clip it onto your belt. It is very weak and hurt. And so are you.
"Chikorita!" I don't know what to say. I-" Chikorita walks over proudly to a Rattata. But it isn't a Rattata. it is a robot. There is smoking slashes in the metal, and the paint is chipping.
All of a sudden, someone walks out form behind a tree. "I cannot believe you defeated me!"
"What?" You say drearily.
"Sorry you got hurt, but I don't make my Pokébots to fight humans! Either way I've done all I can. Here's some berries." It's a boy with hair that is silver blondish. He has blue eyes, and a mouth that looks like he thinks something is funny, even though it is obvious he is genuinely sorry.
"Who-who are you?"
"I'm a trainer like you. Difference is, I make my Pokémon. Not catch them. But I have programmed them to be trained, and get experience in battle and Pokémon who defeat them get experience in battle. It's really cool. What's your name?"
"Forest." You decide telling him your first name wont hurt. "Your Chikorita was awesome. It came through at the last second. Blasted a leaf attack at Pidbot! I think it was a really good version of Razor Leaf.
"Razor Leaf? but the Pokédex said it didn't know that yet. And I haven't trained Chikorita since then. You check the Pokédex, but it says that Chikorita still doesn't know Ember attack. Then you notice her ability: Overgrow: Boosts, or can even produce, plants or nature power, in danger. That's what it was!" It's ability caused it to use leaves when in danger!"
Chikorita looks proud. It walks over to you, and you pick it up into your lap and pet it. "Thank you Chikorita." You whisper.
"It was like a Nature Aura!" continues the boy. "That's it!" you decide. "I'll name you Aura, Chikorita!" Chikorita smiles. "Yeah well, I'll be taking this now. I helped Chikorita bandage your cut. But I really must be going." "Wait," you call as he runs off into the trees. "What's your name?" "Lee Nightslasher." He calls off into the distance. You have real bandages in your bag, which you quickly apply. Good thing mom made you bring the first aid kit. You think about relaxing and calling someone. Although your head is pounding from loss of blood, you will have to wait. You must keep going, it isn't far to Cherrygrove. But when you try to stand up, within getting an inch off the ground, your head pounds. Aura has fallen asleep in your lap. You look at your watch. It's nearing nighttime, and you still haven't eaten lunch. You take your backpack, and pull out a power bar. You don't eat the berries, because you don't trust this, "Lee Nightwatcher." He let his metal Rattata hurt you, then ran off! You wonder what you should feed Chikorita? You slice up an Apple with your dagger, and share with her, who likes it.
You are in the middle of the pathway to Cherrygrove, so decide to rest against a tree. Chikorita helps you move your roller blades and backpack. Your trainer bag is separate and contains all of your trainer supplies. Then you fall asleep under the shade of a tree, thinking, "Just a short nap."
You feel power seeping into you from all directions. Like cool wind but it moves slowly and sends WARM feelings up your body, even though it is cold. You hear noises in the distance, but you cannot tell if it is laughing or screaming! Then you yell a battle cry and run towards the noises, only to find that you are near a cliff. You loose you footing, although you try to pull back at the last second. And scream as you wait for the impact of the rocks.
As you fall you feel that power surging through you. Your eyes are closed but it feels like icy flames are lapping at your face. Then when you are about to hit the ground, a tree cushions you. You breath a sigh of relief from within its branches.
