 My name is Ethan, and I'm somewhat of a thrill seeker, or that's what I like to think. People around school call me 'Safe Kid' (Star V.S. the Forces of Evil pun XD). With my dirty blond short hair that can never be tamed, even with gel, hazel eyes, tan skin with lightning bolt birth marks on my cheeks, and that smile that marks me as a trouble maker, it's obvious that I don't make friends with teachers. But anyways, I'm here to tell you my story when my life took a turn to another dimension. It was a normal day, and I had just turned 10 a few days ago, I invited my friend over for my birthday party. So I sat and waited on my couch watching my favorite show, Ben 10,  when I hear the doorbell ring, I zoom to the door, expecting my friend, but when I opened the door, I almost fainted when I saw a portal. It was a vibrant pinkish purple color, and took up most of the doorway. I was intrigued, I was debating weather to go through or not. Curiosity and adventure won over, and I gingerly touch the portal, and got sucked in.

It was a weird feeling, it felt like I was swimming through Jell-O and flying at the same time, I don't know how long I was in there, but it was a while. When I finally exited the portal, I was brought to the front porch of a windmill looking building, but had a room and a lab that I could see through a few windows. I didn't know where or when I was, so I turned back to the portal to find that it disappeared. With it gone I can see that it was overlooking a quiet and peaceful town. Not knowing what to do next, I walked through the front door of the windmill/lab/house.

I walk in to hear an old man talking, "Welcome to the world of Pokemon." Pokemon? "My name is Oak, and People usually call me the Pokemon Professor.", I tiptoed in to see that the man that stated he was Oak, had gray hair, and looked to be in his fifties. "Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?" I ask, interrupting his speech to three kids, the boy in the middle had a red cap, a red jacket, jeans, and brown hair, the girl on the left had a blue hat on brown hair, a white shirt, and a red skirt, then the taller boy on the right had orange hair, a green jacket, and jeans, and they all looked to be about my age.

"Hello, who might you be?" The old man asked,"My name is Ethan."

I was getting stared at, it was a little edgy. I looked at the kids, who went from staring to glaring.

"Well Ethan, you are in Pallet town of the Kanto region, and I assume you're here to get a Pokemon"

"Where is Kanto, and what's a Pokemon?The boy in the green spoke up, "How have you lived here all your life and never heard of a Pokemon?!"

"That's just it, I haven't lived here all my life, I opened my door to see a portal, and it brought me here." He looked at me like I was crazy. The boy in red just stared at me with curiosity, and the girl was looking impatient, "When will we get our Pokemon Professor?" she whined.

"Patience child," was all he had to say, while the boy in green walked up to me, "Hey there, my names Blue, and my friends over there, are Leaf and Red, I think you can tell who is who," he said with a chuckle, and he was right.

"Okay kids, guess there are 4 brand new trainers then, we will discuss the matter about Ethan's home shortly, so, who would like to pick first."

"I'm not greedy like Leaf and Red, they can choose first." Red just stepped aside, allowing leaf to go first, "Thanks, I've already decided, Bulbasaur! I choose you!" Then Red stepped up and spoke for once, "Charmander, you're my choice!" And Blue looked at the last one, "Because Red chose fire, I'll choose water! Squirtle!" And I finally got a good look at them, Bulbasaur was like a frog with a bulb on his back, Charmander was a orange lizard with fire on its tail, and Squirtle was a blue turtle that stood on his hind legs. "Now Ethan," the Professor started, "You're up."

I was shocked, I wasn't prepared, and I don't know if I'm capable, but I asked, "But they took the only three" And he looked at me with pleasure, "Many years ago, I had a strange dream that told me one day, a boy named Ethan would show up out of nowhere, and that he had a long journey ahead of him, and it told me to allow him to get a special starter pokemon, one that belonged to the champion before he dissapeared." What he said was a little confusing, but I felt a little overwhelmed. But I just nodded, "Now Ethan, I would like you to wait here while I go get it." I walked up to a wall and leaned against it.

 I see Oak walk to me with a ball in his hands. "In this pokeball holds the pokemon of a former champion, and his last wish was that he would get a new partner, and friend. In this Pokeball, is a Pikachu." He said that with a sound of hurt evident in his voice, and I reach to grab the Pokeball.



DUN DUN DUN Cliffhanger XD. What's up everyone, I am alive... Hi. I'm writing this because I have a writers block in my Amourshipping story, so enjoy this while I work on that. BTW the 'Safe Kid' reference will help in the future. And some questions to think about, who was the former Champion? Why was Prof. Oak so upset? And who's Pikachu is that?


By for now :P
