PMD One Wish Chapter 1: Awakening
Cass
"Who's that?"
"Looks like a Shinx."
"Is he okay?"
I heard voices as I ever so slowly returned to consciousness. One female, one male. They sounded like they were around my age.
"Oh my Arceus, I think he's unconscious!" spouted the female voice.
"Hm. I guess so." replied the male voice.
"Huh? He doesn't have have a scarf, so he can't be on a rescue team. We need another member. remember?"
"Hm. What makes anda think he'll gabung us? No one in the village will gabung us because we are too weak. Besides, not as many people are joining the rescue teams these days."
"There's still a chance."
I gathered up all the strength I currently had to slightly open my eyes. What I saw was a yellow fox-like creature known as a Fennekin, as well as the bipedal blue canine, a Riolu. That wasn't the strange part, though. I've seen both of the species in my lifetime before. The odd part wasn't even the fact that they were both wearing green scarves. The weird part was that they were at my height, the Riolu slightly taller. I don't recall being that short.
It wasn't just what I saw that seemed off, either. I felt like I was laying in an awkward position. I was laying on my stomach, my feet stretched out. My arms were stretched out as well...
And then I saw my... hands?
"W-what!?" I tried to stand up, but ended up tumbling over. I fell onto some unknown body part and growled in pain.
...Growled?
"Uh... Hello." The female voice spoke.
"Uh-Who is that!? Where is that voice coming from!?"
"Um... Me, silly." There was no doubt. Those words came from the Fennekin.
"Y-you can talk!? No! Wait! I can understand you!?"
"Heh. anda think he hit his head on something?" reacted the Riolu.
"I don't know, Vince... Um, hey! Are anda okay!?"
I had discovered the sumber of the sound. I stared at my tail as I laid on the earthy surface. After moments of staring at it, I looked at my hands. Except they weren't hands, they were blue furry paws. I inspected myself for a bit and eventually found out that I was a... A...
"Uh... Shinx?" The Fennekin asked cautiously.
Shinx. That's what I was. But how? The last thing I remember was going to sleep on my warm bed. I wanted to wake up from this nightmare, it felt all too real.
Suddenly I felt a last to the face and was knocked backwards.
"Get a hold of yourself!" yelled the Riolu.
"Vince, anda didn't have to-"
"Shut up, Skyler. I just needed to knock some sense into him."
That hurt, but it disproved my theory of this being a dream.
"That's just great, I'm a Shinx now..."
"What? Yep. Definitely hit his hea-." berkata Vince, the Riolu.
"Don't mind him, he's a little harsh at times. This is Vince, I'm Skyler, and anda are?" interrupted the Fennekin.
"Um... I'm Cass, but what happened to me? Why am I a Shinx now?"
"What do anda mean?" replied Skyler.
"I'm a human, atau so I thou-"
I was cut off oleh gasps from both of them.
After a while of awkward silence, Skyler spoke up. "...How? Humans can't enter to the Hikage region. It protects us Pokemon inhabiting the region from them."
Vince was selanjutnya to speak. "Oh man, if the village found out... Wait, how can anda be a human if you're a Shinx?"
Oh, no... If I'm in this region helpless, with no way halaman awal atau to way turn human again... I don't even want to think about it.
"I think he means to say he used to be human..." berkata Skyler. "But that's so weird."
"C-can anda help me? I mean, I know nothing about this region, and... I don't want to rot in the wild." I said.
"Of course we ca-" replied Skyler.
"On one condition." Vince butted in.
"Huh?"
"You gabung our rescue team, and we'll keep your secret and help anda understand how things work around here."
"Vince, anda don't have to-"
"Deal. But... What's a rescue team?"
As we walked towards what they called the "Temporal Village," The two bulu balls told me pretty much everything. Apparently, a "rescue team" is a group of three Pokemon that, well, rescue. They also uncover treasure and mysteries. Rescue teams are named after colors, and have scarves of berkata color. The team I stumbled upon happens to be Team Green. Each recsue team member is called an "explorer."
I stopped walking.
"What is it?" berkata Skyler, sounding concerned.
"Are anda a new team starting out?"
"No, why?"
"Why are anda missing a member?"
Both of them instantly looked at the ground.
"Uh... Did I say something wrong?"
"N-no! It's just that..."
She sighed. "You deserve to know. Our old teammate... His name was Desmond. We failed to save him. Poor Raltz... Now most of the village sees us as weak... We couldn't even save a friend..."
"I-I'm sorry..."
"Don't be. It's not your fault. I don't blame anda for what happened to him, neither am I made at anda for asking."
We eventually reached the gates of Temporal Village, which were closed. It was beautifully decorated with multi-colored lights and flowers. It was made of wonderfully crafted wood. In the middle was a desain of some kind of ancient clock. oleh it stood two Bisharp guards, each brandishing a spear. The gates seemed overly guarded.
"Hold it!" barked the guard to the left. "Who is that Shinx there!? BETTER not be a soldier atau a spy from the SPACIAL VILLAGE!"
"Spacial Village?" I whispered to Skyler.
"Yes, they're a neighboring village who we are currently enemies with."
"Oh..."
The guard cleared his throat as loudly as an Exploud who stepped on a nail.
"WELL?"
"Calm down, George." berkata the Bisharp on the right end.
"Shut up, Bob!"
I mentally chuckled at their names being pretty generic and incredibly un-intimidating.
I was surprised to hear that Vince was the one to speak up. "Hm. No. He's an outsider who belongs to no villages. He doesn't even come from the Hikage region and wishes to gabung ours."
George snarled. "A wild Pokemon!? What worth does he have and how do anda know we can trust him!?"
A calm female-sounding voice came from the other side of the gate. "Because I say so. Now please, allow me through." The guards stepped out of the way and saluted as a Meganium walked through the gates.
"Sorry, excuse them. Mostly George. I am Meganium, the mayor, so-to-speak of Temporal Village."
Huh. Her name was simply "Meganium."
"But, Mega-Er, Lady Meganium! How do anda know that he is trustworthy!?" complained George.
"I was just getting to that. Now, Shinx, I believe that anda are trustworthy. However, much conflict has arisen lately, so, sadly, we can't simply let anda pass through. I hope anda understand. anda must prove your trustworthiness."
I gulped. Prove my worthiness? Oh Arceus, I hope it's not like slaying a Dragonite atau something. I at least hope it's not even close to that kind of difficulty.
"You shall track down and capture a fugitive."
I had to Jynx myself, didn't I?
"She is a Combusken known as Marla Fumes. She is a rogue Pokemon known for the loss of an explorer." She turned around to face Skyler and Vince. Skyler was shivering like mad, Vince was practically giving Meganium a death stare.
"Marla escaped prison recently, and I am presenting to anda the task of re-capturing her, and if anda can, discover her motives. The two remaining members of Team Green will be allowed to assist anda on your mission. In fact, I am giving anda two the task as well. Do not return to the village until the objective is fulfilled. I am counting on anda three. And hey, who knows, maybe anda all will return halaman awal as a team." Meganium winked. How did she know about that?
Meganium turned around and began to make her way back into the village.
"Wait!" yelled Vince. "Why do anda expect us to help him!?"
How dare anda speak that way to Me-I mean Lady Meganium!?" shouted George.
"I will help," berkata Skyler.
Meganium chuckled. "Because if anda do not, anda will not return. Also, do I have to remind anda who anda are searching for? Oh, and one lebih thing. If Shinx betrays you, it is your responsibility, seeing as anda were the one who requested for him to reside in the village. I will see anda when your mission is completed!"
Jeez, Meganium is a grouch.
"Well, what are anda waiting for?" questioned Bob.
And so we headed off into no particular direction, beginning our quest. This whole thing is giving me a headache. I WILL turn human again as soon as I possibly can. But for now, I'm hungry, and I need something to eat..
