Abandoned Innocence: Prolouge
#2 of Abandoned Innocence
My first story and It's a dark pokemon fanfiction (well, the prolouge isnt that dark).
*Author's Note* This is the first time at making a novel long pokemon story (I usually make short pokemon stories). I apologize about some things like there are some dumb pokemon logic things in the prolouge and I probably over explained not as important things in this. I am open for criticism; feel free to comment how I can fix some things and some advice for later chapters. Also, I hope you enjoy. :3
Prolouge
"Mom! Dad! Wake up! Wake up!" the little girl exclaimed. She was excited because today was the day she could choose her first pokemon. She rushed her parents because the girl was afraid to show up late. Kimmy Cobb was the ten year old girl's name. She had long, dirty blonde hair and innocent green eyes. She is a pokemon fanatic. She collected many pokemon cards, almost all of them (from the Kanto region) and she graduated from the Pokemon Academy with a high grade point average. Her family is the type that is 'heading towards the poverty line.' This was due to the crummy jobs her parents had. She and her family lives in a very small and an abandoned looking house. There is one big room and a bathroom downstairs and one big room upstairs. Inside the house, everything is slightly modern. There is a small TV, a few appliances for the kitchen, and a few lamps, for electrical things.
Socially, Kimmy is somewhat of a loner. She had a few friends, but they were only school friends. She had a lot of bullies she had to deal with, whom constantly harassing her. Her parents are her best friends. They do everything together like watch movies, go on walks, gaze at the stars, cook, etc. She was ready to go to Professor Oak's lab to get her first pokemon. Since her parent's car battery died, she had to ride her bike.
Kimmy lived in Pallet Town, a very small town in the Kanto region. It's the type of town where the population is real low, but everyone was every optimistic and knew everyone in the town like a suburban neighborhood in the 1950s. The town has about 30 houses and a pokemon lab. People would have to go to Viridian City to go to a Pokemon Center, a market, or to the Pokemon Academy. Kimmy finally got to Professor Oak's lab. She expected it to be extremely crowded, however it looked abandoned. She crept inside to see if anyone was there but no kids were anywhere in sight, just a few professors working in the lab. She saw Professor Oak and approached him.
"Uh.... um... Excuse me? Professor Oak? I am here to get my pokemon." She quickly got the professor's attention. He looked confused. After a moment of silence, Kimmy felt like she did something wrong. Before she was about to apologize, Oak smiled and replied "Oh! You are one of those kids. You must be late because everyone stopped by an hour ago. Unfortunately, we don't have any more starter pokemon for you. I'm terribly sorry. Next year, stop by because we'll have more pokemon by then for next year's kids."
"Wait... I'm too late?" Kimmy questioned the professor.
"Yes, you were supposed to arrive at 11:00 this morning," the professor replied. Kimmy thought it was at noon.
"Oh... ok," Kimmy said quietly. She left the lab and began to ride home. She became increasingly impatient waiting for next year during her ride back home. As she rode through Pallet Town, she became envious as she saw all the other kids who got pokemon and were saying goodbye to their families as they were off on their adventure and exploration of the region of Kanto. She realised that she is fortunate that she at least has another year with her parents. Her parents were her best friends and knew that she would become home sick early on in the journey.
Instead of going home, she decided to go to the lake at the edge of Pallet Town. This was where she went when she didn't have a good day. She spent about an hour there, thinking about her as a trainer, collecting badges from gym leaders and joining pokemon contests.
"Hey Kimmy!" A school friend of hers interrupts her daydream. His name was Hunter. Kimmy actually finds him to be a good friend and probably her only good friend from school.
"Oh... Hi!"
"Did you get your pokemon yet? I got mine!" He threw his pokeball in the air and a Charmander came out. While the Charmander walks around, chanting his name over and over, Kimmy started to get slightly angry.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. I just didn't get one. I was too late."
"Oh. I'm sorry.."
"It's ok."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"Well... ok. I was about to leave but I thought I should talk to you before I go. Well, I'll see you whenever we meet up again." Her friend left as Kimmy stood there feeling kind of sad.
"See you next year..." Kimmy responded quietly. She was about to head home until something caught her eye. She turned around and saw a ball of blue fur far down the left side of the lake. Curious, she checked to see what it was. As she got closer, she realized it was a pokemon. It was a Lucario. Kimmy didn't know much about other regions outside of Kanto, so she was unfamiliar with this pokemon. After quickly observing the Lucario, she found something peculiar about this pokemon. The pokemon looked young. She didn't know who the pokemon was but just by how the pokemon looked; she thought the Lucario should have looked older than what this one looked like. The pokemon was smaller and shorter and its eyes were bigger. Kimmy then, immediately noticed the bruises on the Lucario's body. Immediately, the pokemon gained consciousness.
"Please... help," the Lucario mumbled. Kimmy was shocked. Pokemon would usually just chant their name; however the Lucario was saying actual words. He sounded like a young boy.
Stuttering, Kimmy responded, "F-Follow me, uh.. I'll take you to the Pokemon Center." Kimmy helped the Lucario up and helped him walk as they both head off to Viridian City's Pokemon Center.
She was my bestfriend..... She was also like family to me... Why did everything go wrong and turn to chaos?
