Origin Story: Part 1 - Haunted by the Truth

Prologue: The Child

Ever since you were born you felt... different, strange, out of the ordinary.

People around you thought you were someone else, wanted you to act like other people. People they had lost and once loved, or hated and despised. But honestly, you were confused on who you really are.

You're one thing, but have to act another way. You are someone else, but need to be different than that.

What does that even mean??

You closed your eyes and sighed to yourself, slowly crawling out of your small bed to stare outside your window. For as long as you can remember, you longed to live in the woods. To sleep underneath the stars with pokemon, and watch the stars twinkling up high.

But... that's not how a human is supposed to live, apparently. Not a child, at least.

But during your short span of life, you've come across all sorts of strange and interesting people. People who act differently, talk differently from one another, and saw the world differently from each other.

Which made you realize that you didn't have to be the same as everyone else. Everyone is unique in their own way, and it's up to you to figure out who you are.

So in your small little bubble, looking out into the world, you stared up at the moonlight and sighed sadly. You felt as if your real self is within arm's reach, but who is that person?

Who is Viola?

Your own questions and worries keep you up at night, and not even the boogeyman can be the true reason for your fears. Do you have fears? You probably do, you certainly do...

You worry for your daddy, who you don't see all of the time. You worry about your mum, who worries for daddy all the time, whenever he's away.

And you worry about yourself. You worry about your friends and family, and yourself.

There's a lot out there in the world, and you wonder what is good and what is bad. What is healing, and what is destructive. You... want to uncover all of those secrets, even if it's scary. And is that a dream a child should have? Well... you do, for some reason that's your secret dream you want to fulfill.

To travel the world and discover its secrets. To be someone like a pokemon trainer, or even a ranger. To just... explore. Explore without any limits or bounds. No judgmental eyes upon you, as you let your curiosity truly take hold.

And if you die then you die, but you'd die doing something that makes you happy. Discovery, adventure. That's what you want, deep down...

But you're unable to go do that cause, well, you're just a kid, and kids cannot go out on adventures like that. Not without worrying their parents and other loved ones, and you love them all too much to go off on your own and leave everyone behind.

A/N: HELLO GUYS!! While I may have had this account for a long time, I haven't thought about posting any stories I've come up with here or care too much about sharing my work. But I decided to broaden my scope or range. I usually post my fanfiction on fanfiction.net, but this story hasn't gotten any comments on that site. So, I decided to start posting my story here, as well. I'll probably post the chapters up on my fanfiction.net account, but I'll publish them here, as well. I picked wattpad because, recently, I've been reading a lot of stories from this site. There's a lot of creative people here on this site, so I'd like to share my work here. Plus, I haven't had the chance to place pictures in my stories, and this site can let me do that. Sounds like fun!

I've had this Pokemon OC story in my head for a long time now. Since it hasn't really changed from what I imagined it to be, I decided to start writing a fanfic for it. Whenever I'd try to start in, say, the middle of my story, I never could figure out how to explain certain things. So, I'm writing the story at the very beginning. I have a better description on my fanfiction.net, but to summarize, the story combines the games, the anime, and the Pokemon Adventures story. It twists all the media, probably. I'm just writing as I go, honestly. This is the 1st parter in a... 2 to 3 parter story. It's probably going to end up being only 2 parts, and after I'm done with this 'origin' story, I want to start writing a fun story with other young Team Rocket recruits and probably twist my Viola OC into the story... somehow. Maybe I'll start it after I've finished writing up the 2nd part; I don't know. Just planning ahead.

There's mentions of murder and violence, and a twist on the good/bad guy mentality of the pokemon world. This world I hope to portray will exhibit a lot of gray undertones, and if you're queasy to child abuse and death then stray away from this story. This is a story I began because of a 100 challenge, and if I decide to make multiple parts I'll probably reference another # from the challenge.

THAT'S ABOUT IT!!! I hope you guys enjoy the story, and please COMMENT your thoughts so I can improve. I know already that this first part to the story is rather cut and dry, with not too much action, but I'm not the best writer when it comes to action. I do try. Just don't expect a lot of pokemon battles, but maybe later in the story. OKAY!!! That's all I have for a description for this story. I've tried to not add a lot of 'A/N' comments to my stories, lately, so hopefully this'll be the longest comments I'll have for the story. I hope you guys ENJOY the story and if you have any QUESTIONS I'd be sure to answer them.
