ListenToLife Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I finished the first Chapter of the Fic I was writing about Michael. I'll be posting the rest on my Creative Writing thread when I write them. [spoiler=Episode X: Lapras of the Silver Wing] [spoiler=Chapter 1] The sun rose slowly over the horizon, illuminating the sea with its light-giving rays. The ocean's surface dazzled as the light reflected off it, creating the illusion of a million flames dancing upon the waves. A picture moment, if ever there was one. Sadly, the city of Olivine was quiet at this time, and only a few tired pokémon wandered the beaches. There were some small time sailor's at the harbour, preparing their ships for the next voyage, but the only person there to appreciate the sight was a women with light brown hair, her usual tied up style abandoned in favour of letting her hair go loose down her back. She smiled at the ocean, taking in its fragrant, salty air with a deep inhale, as she turned to walk to the light-house. Olivine's Gym Leader, Jasmine, often had to wake up at this early hour. Her daily routine encompassed this meager errand, but she had been doing it for too long to care. And she loved her dear Ampharos with all her heart. She climbed the stairs in the light house with ease, the elevator having broken not long ago. Still, she accepted the challenge readily the first time and was ready this time. She was at the top in no time, and as she placed her foot on the solid floor the light shining from the light house faded and footsteps could be heard around the corner. She didn't have time to move from her spot before her best friend appeared from around the corner, colliding with her and nearly sending them both tumbling down the staircase. "Careful next time." Jasmine said, smiling as Amphy nodded and helped her up. The Yellow pokémon usually looked tired, for she had to keep to an unusual nocturnal routine that few Ampharos enjoyed. But this time, she was a little bit worse for ware. You see, the afternoon before, they had been challenged to a battle. And while normally, Amphy was still sleeping for her Job in the Lighthouse, and would miss battles; the days had been getting longer, and Amphy was getting more free time. As such, she joined in with the battle, which had initially seemed like a simple battle, for the boy's appearance was fragile and lacked motivation. It had certainly been a surprised when he beat her, especially considering how efficiently and easily he had done it.... [spoiler=The Battle. Not really necessary, but there] "It's brave of you to challenge me. May I ask your name, young man?" The Leader asked politely, taking her place at one end of the flat rocky arena. The battle grounds were clearly marked out yellow lines darting around the room. However, by no means were the pokémon limited to there. "My name is of no importance, is it? We're just here to battle." The boy said with a smile, innocence plastered across his face. He too stepped into his position, his cheerful coolness sending a chill up Jasmine's spine; though she merely blamed her mind for playing tricks on her. As he stepped into place, the disk of land upon which each of them stood started to rise from the ground, as did a ring of fences around said disk. At around 8 foot high, the platforms stopped moving, allowing the competitors an aerial view of the arena. "Let us begin." Jasmine said; her voice focused and serious. "I guess I shall choose Magneton for my first pokémon." She gazed carefully at the Boy as she threw her pokéball, though the boy seemed to follow the ball rather than meet her eye. He smiled as Magneton emerged from the pokéball, and Jasmine once again shivered. "I shall meet that with my Arcanine.” The boy said, chucking as he opened the pokéball. “She is a powerful creature, I advise you to not underestimate her." Out from the red flash emerged a beautiful and graceful lion-like creature, one whose mane seemed to ripple like fire. She stood at least a foot above any average Arcanine, and seemed to be in prime condition. Despite this, her eyes appeared as similarly calm as her master's, though she appeared as if she viewed the battle as more of a tedious meeting rather than a serious affair. "Shall we begin?" The boy said, politely, just as all hell broke loose. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Arcanine moved like a flash, the extreme-speed making the pokémon blur as she ran, dashing gracefully towards the Magneton. She needed no guidance from her master; this was easy prey. She was behind the mechanical within seconds and, before any time was given to react, unleashed a full Fire Blast direct to the Steel beast's rear. "The hell?!" Jasmine cried, leaning over the barrier, her jaw hanging low as Arcanine managed to OHKO her first pokémon. Speechless, she returned the fainted pokémon, and looked towards the referee, who was lifting his flag nervously towards the Boy. [i]This is serious. He's got power.[/i] Jasmine noted, a bead of sweat rolling down her forehead. 3 on 3, this match was, and she was already down one. [i]Not good.[/i] She moved away from the edge of the balcony and began to pace slightly, attempting to create a strategy. Unable to think of a way to counter the attack, she merely grabbed a pokéball from her belt. [i]His [/i][i]defence[/i][i] is high. He'll be able to withstand some attacks.[/i] She mused, nodding to herself as she threw the pokéball high into the air. Out from the red flash in this round emerged a much larger pokémon, one that's head lifted to the ceiling of the arena. The ground beneath him trembled as he moved, sliding his tail back and forth along the floor. "Rusty, use Flash Cannon!" Jasmine commanded. The Iron Snake Pokémon reacted fast, instantly flattening itself against the floor, almost camouflaging itself with the surroundings. Arcanine was unaware of where the head happened to be, and before she could react, she was blasted in the side by a large silver beam, one that seemed to catapult her backwards a ways. She landed well though, and seemed uninjured as she looked to her master for guidance. He merely nodded at her, and she turned to face the surrounding rocks, placing her nose to the ground. She sniffed a couple of times, before Oder Sleuth kicked in and she detected Steelix's whereabouts. She reacted well to this, and changed from stood still to full pelt Flame Blitz within moments, colliding with Rusty in an impressive collision which managed to send Steelix catapulting a few metres, though it left Arcanine with a small bruise on her forehead. "Flamethrower as well." The boy commanded; the innocent, calm smile still on his face. Arcanine merely nodded to him, and proceeded to widen her mouth, from which a stream of flames emerged, colliding with Steelix to knock him unconscious. The Gym leader looked on in horror and shock as Steelix, the pokémon she was most confident could win, was defeated with ease, in the form of two powerful fire-type attacks. She took a few moments to recover from this shock, balancing herself on the rails along the side of the podium as she thought about what had happened, and what she could do from here. [i]I guess I’ll have to resort to Amphy. [/i]The last pokéball in her belt seemed fragile and useless now, and Jasmine was unsure if Amphy was up to the pressure of a Pokémon battle. Shrugging her shoulders, Jasmine picked up the pokéball, and threw it down to the stadium below, returning Steelix to his own pokéball with her free hand. “I guess my Ampharos will be my last pokémon. But I’ll tell you now, this wont be an easy....” Jasmine started, her strong personality restoring itself as she warned the boy about the power of Ampharos, though she wasn’t that internally confident. The lack of confidence was well earnt, for before Jasmine could even finish her sentence, Arcanine had pounce on top of Ampharos, delivering a sharp Bite to the Yellow pokémon’s shoulder. Ampharos was still concious, however, Jasmine did not dare see her prized pokémon get injured, and returned her before she could become any more damaged. The Gym Leader sighed and placed the pokéball back on her belt as the podium’s lowered, tossing a small badge over her shoulders, which the boy caught with ease. “Thank you.” The Boy called, a friendly smile still upon his face. “It was a good battle.” He chuckled as he turned to walk away, Arcanine plodding along at his side, her snout held high in pride. [/spoiler] Jasmine sighed as she remembered the battle, and lifted up the same pokéball she had used to return Amphy the previous night. “I guess you deserve a rest.” Jasmine whispered, a weak smile dancing upon her lips as she raised the pokéball to the Ampharos’ chest. She gave one worried look at the Bite mark imprinted on Amphy’s shoulder before the red light enveloped her, then turned to the window of the lighthouse. The view from up here was even more spectacular than that at the beach, and allowed her to peer over all of her city. Which is exactly what she was doing when she spotted the Boy from the previous day, walking towards the Harbour. He greeted one of the Sailors working on a boat to the Whirlpool Islands before boarding the ship itself. “He certainly is brave." She muttered, writing him off as a dead man for merely approaching the Islands. [/spoiler][/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 It seems incomplete, and what's the relation to Lapras anyway...? Also, if this boy is Michael, he's really powerful o_o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ListenToLife Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 It's the first Chapter of the Story in which he gets Lapras. Lapras is at the Islands. To be honest, it's a prologue type chapter, and the next one will be from the perspective of Michael/the Boy. And yes, it's Michael. With his original Arcanine. Arcanine's strong, and had an Advantage type-wise in that battle. I probably wont be making him always win like that. And he's supposed to be a lot cockier at the moment than he is in the RP. At some point he'll calm down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well. Alright. Anyway, I don't want this to die, but since Aesirson isn't online anymore, it's too difficult, huh? Whoever thought that by keeping the teachers all to himself, he pretty much destroyed any hope of us continuing it by ourselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ListenToLife Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 We kinda need him for this to continue, do we. ¬_¬ Dammit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
