Pokémon: Origin of Lukas

Chapter 1: Brothers

[Writer's POV]

''GET DOWN!'' Shouted a fifteen year old Lukas, who was running away from something.

Up ahead were two other people who were talking before they heard the voice. The two males turned their attention to Lukas. ''Huh?'' Said one of them.

Lukas was then within their eyesight after running down the hill. ''GET DOWN, GUYS!'' He shouted again, this time with a rumble occurring a second after. Then, right behind him were not just one, nor two, but a whole herd of Stantlers running after him while being led by a male Wyrdeer.

The two males' eyes became wide with shock as the oncoming herd approached them. ''Yikes!'' Said the older of the two and quickly dropped down behind the tree trunk they were sitting on. Lukas came jumping down between them and was able to take cover behind the trunk as well.

And the moment he did, the entire herd came leaping over the trunk and the trio, shaking the ground as each Pokemon landed and ran ahead. Lukas was grinning the whole time, laughing at the adrenaline of what was happening. The other two were shocked, but slowly began to smile over the fact that it was quite awesome to witness and be part of.

The herd kept leaping over them, until they all had passed, bar one Stantler who was following the rest of the herd while falling behind by four seconds.

The three brothers watched as the herd kept running, before Lukas took a deep breath from all that excitement. ''Tony? Racku?'' He spoke. ''Never try to milk a Stantler.''

Racku then tackled Lukas. ''Are you kidding?'' He said, ''What if i wanted to experience this fun again??'' He then put his younger brother in a headlock before giving him a noggie. Tony, however, put the two in headlocks by himself, seeing as he was the oldest of the three.

''Knock it off, you two.'' He told them. Once Lukas and Racku had stopped, he released them. ''Listen. This is a big day for Lukas, and i don't want you two to be all decorated in bushes and bruises when it starts.'' He explained.

''That's right! The Coming Of Age Ceremony!'' Said Racku, making some gestures with his hands. He then looked at Lukas while clasping his hands. ''But no matter what Arceus says, you'll always be our little brother.'' He teased.

Lukas knew that his brother was making a friendly tease, but it still felt that he was being mocked. ''Oh yeah?'' He asked. ''Well, just wait 'til i get my Poke-Totem!'' Racku didn't seem to be listening, as he kept teasing. ''Little bro--'' But he was interrupted when Lukas clamped his mouth, leading to the two getting into a very small scuffle before Tony slammed their heads together to get them to stop.

''Come on, you guys!'' He told his brothers as they were rubbing their own heads. ''The sooner we get those fruits and Slowpoke tails, the sooner we can get back to the village for the ceremony.'' He explained. ''So let's all try to work together for a few hours!'' Tony then looked at Racku. ''Okay, Racku?'', ''Sure thing.'' Racku replied. Tony then faced Lukas. ''Okay, Lu--?''

Lukas wasn't there, which made Tony look around for him. ''Well?'' Lukas' voice sounded from the water nearby, making his brothers look that way. ''What are we waiting for??'' Lukas shouted while sitting in a kayak. ''Come on! Let's go catch some tails!''

Tony and Racku took their kayaks and headed down to the water before they got on board their respective kayaks.

Once they were ready, the three brothers set sail to gather fruits and Slowpoke tails.

As they began rowing their kayaks, they took in the beautiful landscape surrounding them. This was nothing new, but they still enjoyed it nonetheless. The brothers had made it a promise to themselves to see the rest of the world in the future.

Of course, it would be some time before that would happen. But they could offer to wait, as their lives were quite excellent and peaceful.
