True Potential

Chapter 7~ New Journey?

The girl woke from her slumber, she rubbed the tiredness from her silver orbs. The couldn't get up from her three pokemon surrounding her. The teen managed to wake Shadow, the new member of her team, Shadow jumped up and floated from the bed. She rolled off the bed, landing on her face. She groan as she got up from the cold wooden flooring. She went to the bathroom to get ready, she let Moon and Flare get more rest. She patted out of the bathroom with a new set of similar clothing that she previously wore, a towel slung over her shoulder catching the water from her damp hair. She grabbed the hairbrush she had in her bag, the silver eyed girl brushed her damp hair. When her hair was fully brushed she set her brush back in her bag. She grabbed her black beanie from the dresser and put it on, adjusting it just how it's meant to be worn.

Blake looked back at her sleeping Pokemon, Flare fully recovered from his sleepiness, but for Moon she continued rubbing her leg on Flares coat. Flare jumped off the bed leaving Moon to get up and growl at Flare, but he ignored the growl. The raven haired teen smiled and returned both Moon and Flare, leaving Shadow out of his ball. It wasn't necessary for him to be in his pokeball if this is the hometown of ghost. She put the pokeballs containing her team on her belt, she grabbed her bag and left the room. She walked to The Center Lady and returned the key to the room, then she set out to Pokemon Tower.

~Blake's POV~

When I entered Pokemon Tower two males ran up to me, one was a red head and the other had raven black hair. "Excuse us miss but can we speak with you for a moment?" The red head asked, "please?" The jet black haired added in. I looked at them both them at Shadow, then back at them. "Uhh...sure..." I replied, the red head nodded and the jet black haired smiled. They both lead me to the top floor of Pokemon Tower, I was supposed to meet the Marowak spirit here anyway. I turned to the two males who were both mumbling to each other. I just watched them until they both noticed and stopped. The red head nudged the jet black haired one, he sighed and walked up to me. "Will you go with me on my pokemon journey?" He asked, I looked at him surprised and confused. He just looked back at me waiting for my answer, then I felt another presence with us.

Must be the Marowak... I looked away from his gaze and looked at the spirit floating towards me.

Have you decided?

Marowak, How are you speaking to me??

I can hear your thoughts, remember?

Oh yeah, I forgot, and yes, I have decided

What's your decision young one?

I'll not stay, I was invited to go on a pokemon journey...and I can't refuse an adventure

I see, well I guess I'll go with you..

How?

I'll follow you around while you and your comrades seek adventure, but only you can see me.

But why would you come with me?

To protect you and teach you, I fear you loose control of your aura and destroy anything in sight. I don't want that to happen again.

Again?

Yes, before you were human, you destroyed a half of the Kanto region hundreds of years ago. Many people know who you are and keep away from you, they fear you, they fear that you'll unleash the beast inside.

...

So that's why I need to join you

...I understand...thank you

No, thank you for caring about humanity

I looked back at the male, I nodded. The jet black haired male smiled and hugged me, "thank you!!" He said, "you're welcome?" I replied back. He let go of me, "the names Gold, what's yours?" He exclaimed. "B-Blake, nice to meet you Gold" I smiled. He smiled back, "looks like my job here is done, goodbye Gold and Blake" the red head waving at us as he fled out the tower. "He's Silver" Gold exclaimed "he promised me that he'll help me try to get you to join me in my pokemon journey, after that we'll be back to becoming rivals". "Oh, cool" I replied back. He nodded, "I guess we should be going" he asked, I nodded and we both walked out of Pokemon Tower. I remembered about Marowak, I begin to panic.

Don't worry child, I'm still here

oh...okay, where are you?

I'm behind you

I turned around to see the Marowak spirit following behind me, I sighed in relief. "What's wrong Blake?' Gold asked, I quickly looked back at him, "oh, nothing" I reply back, he looked at me questionably then looked back to where he was going. "Where are we going exactly?" I asked the golden eyed male. "New Bark Town" he replied, New Bark Town..."Isn't that in the Johto region?" I asked. He nodded in response" its my hometown actually, I just moved in a while ago and already leaving my home to start my own pokemon adventure." "Oh..." I mumbled

Should I tell him?

No, well, not yet exactly. He'll think you're insane and leave you alone, you don't want that, I'm sure of it.

I don't want to lose anyone in my life again...

That's the spirit
