Heroes and villains... they're only separated by their convictions and what they believe is right. Both have their morals, and both have a goal that they believe is worth achieving. Two years...
  
Two years I had been trapped like a caged bird just waiting to escape back into the world. It had been nothing but hell for me after the fall of Team Plasma. I had been longing for some form of sign that would tell me that everything would be fine, that I'd have that second chance I desired. That was when fate came knocking on my door in the form of my estranged mother. What she wanted... I didn't care. 
  
She had been gone for ten years of my life. She never even said good-bye. Who the hell does that? Whatever apologies she had, I didn't want them. And whatever she had to say, I didn't want to hear it. At least... I thought I didn't. It's funny how you think you knew everything only for everything you've ever been told to be proven a lie. 
  
Little did I know how deep those lies had gone. I had no idea what I'd be getting into the moment I got onto that plane with my mother. All I knew, was that I was given a second chance at something I'd been dying to do since I was little. I just... didn't expect it to be on an island in the middle of the sea.
  
It's a completely different world over here, and I'm not sure exactly how I'll adapt. But I do know one thing. My life has started anew, and I can finally get that fresh start I'd been longing for. Even though I'm free, I can't help but get a bad feeling about all of this...

The Wish of a Broken Heart by LovelyLotus84
78 parts Ongoing
They say, "Be careful what you wish for." They say, "There's truth to every story." They say, "Karma's a B***h." A heart's wish is a powerful thing. But magic doesn't exist. Or so I thought. Now, a troll has found me. ************* Cara I can't... It hurts... Why? Am I not good enough? Not pretty enough? What did I do to be betrayed like this? I feel numb except for the gaping hole in my chest. The darkness starts creeping in. I wish... Heavens how I wish... Friday June 13th I don't know when, how, or why I ended up where I am, but here I am. As insane as it sounds, I am no longer on earth. I think. Maybe I'm dead. Or maybe I'm in a coma! One where I can feel a hell of a lot of pain and new scents are being created? Maybe, just maybe, I should have listened to Grandmother's crazy stories of magic in our blood and being careful what we wish for. They don't sound so crazy anymore. All I know is I'm on the ground, can't move, staring up at an impossibly blue sky through broken branches of trees I've never seen before. That's saying a lot. Botany is my favorite hobby. I think I have internal bleeding from falling through the three-story tall trees like a pinball. My only regrets are knowing my Mum will be in a panic, won't quit searching, and my sweet American Pit Bull Terrier, Nimuë, fell through with me. ************* Tavirian Our laws are clear. If we find any creature wounded past the point of healing, we kill them. It's a mercy. We've gotten a reputation for being ruthless and cannibalistic because of it. Hundreds of years ago, perhaps, but not anymore. I'm still a monster. I'm on my ancestral pilgrimage to present the spirits with my potential brides. I'm not thrilled with my options. My mate is out there, but the elders are pushing me to take one of our Tribe. When we come across a nearly dead, tiny human and her creature, I can't kill them. Especially now. I can use the pilgrimage to save them for now, but I'll need help.
The Conductor (Jolteon x Vaporeon) by MidnightLotus_
77 parts Ongoing Mature
The son of a world-famous musician roams the land after abandoning his ruined home, aspiring to carry on the dreams of his family. With a bag over his shoulder and guitar in his back, Tempest, a young Jolteon, begins to travel the world, stumbling across pokemon that he'll come to call friends along his journey. One in particular, a shy, quiet Vaporeon, with a similar past, latched onto him, and the two began to grow close, slowly uncovering each other's secrets and breaking each other out of their reclusive shells. Will the brutality of the real world tear them apart, or will their relationship be able to flourish, rising above the harshness of the reality? This is a story written after being inspired by many others. With no intention to copy from other stories, this intricate world has been created for a sweet, adventure-filled, action-packed story, with a touch of romance, exploring the difficulties of life on the run and touching on a multitude of themes. Pokémon walk and move as they normally would, with the exception of some quadrupeds preferring to move as bipedal. The cover art is done by myself! It's not great, but I wanted to at least do something cute and original for my story! Last but not least, interactions are greatly appreciated. I love reading insightful comments and interacting with the people who enjoy my story, or even getting feedback, as I'm very new to this and somewhat self conscious about it, but I aim to grow with time. Votes also help my story be found by others, which is greatly appreciated, especially with the mature tag making it harder to find. Obviously, I do not own pokemon
To Steal the Heart of a Thief {Pokemon Ranger Fanfiction} (Pokemon Watty Awards 2015) by Serena-Daniels
40 parts Complete
As I write this letter to you, all I have to say is... I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I lied to all three of you. Living a life of lies has taught me that it comes with a price, and now I'm paying it. My name IS Rena Deveraux; that wasn't a lie. But I never wanted to be a Ranger... That's not why I was at the Ranger School. I am so, so sorry that I lied to you, but the truth is... I'm a thief. And you...you were my assignment, and I was to think of you as nothing more than that. It wasn't personal, I promise you. It was just business. I thought I could outrun the law my whole life and never get caught. Never did I once think that the law applied to me, or that my actions would catch up to me one day. It never crossed my mind...not even once. I was so confident, which made my downfall inevitable. I left my back turned for one second and I lost it all. No words can describe the feeling I get when I look at your face... That look of pain, and sadness... Your eyes are filled with nothing but hate and disdain when they meet my gaze. Honestly, I'm surprised that you haven't killed me for what I've done to you. I'm afraid this is the end, and I will never see you again. You can hate me for the rest of your life. I understand... What I did to you is unforgivable, and I don't deserve your forgiveness. I don't deserve to see your smile ever again. My biggest regret is that I will never get to properly say good-bye to you. So, I must do it in this letter. Good-bye, my Prince Charming. I will never forget you. Take care of Rhythimi and Isaac for me, and please...apologize to them on my behalf, since I can't do it myself. Oh, and one more thing, Keith. Assuming that you didn't just tear this letter up upon receiving it, I just wanted to say... I've told you a lot of lies since the moment we first met... But my feelings for you were never one of them. {Pokémon Ranger Shadows of Almia fanfiction; cover art was just photoshopped by me}

I crossed my arms. "Lemme guess. You'd do anything to see him happy," I mocked. "She's delusional. I'm helping Arven's partner. Of course, he's happy about seeing Mabosstiff getting better, and I'm happy I'm helping their relationship and helping someone feel better." My Pokémon blinked at each other, clearly knowing something I didn't. "'Doing something crazy'. Do you think fighting titans for an incredibly powerful herb is crazy?" I asked Quaxwell. He nodded immediately, and I scoffed. I sat down at the edge of my bed and chuckled. "Her and her insane scenarios. When Mabosstiff fully heals, would Arven be the type of person to take time out of a wonderful moment to turn to me, reach out his hands to grab both of mine, look me in the eyes...." I felt my cheeks crack a smile as I thought about him again, the few times I've seen him completely break through his threatening persona and brighten the entire room with his sweet and excited energy. "He has such brilliant, stunning, shimmery eyes. I've never seen such a lovely turquoise color in all my life." I held my own hand and grazed my thumb with my other, deep in the fantasy. "He'd give me that adorable little laugh he did earlier today and tell me: 'You're amazing, Lugosi. I mean that. I'm so happy I met you...." I froze in realization. My Pokémon were all wearing a look of disappointment with how long it took me to figure it out. "Great Arceus... I have a crush on Arven." ❥๑━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━๑❥ Pure romance. No lemons, no smut, the only curse word used is "damn" and the a-word once but otherwise, completely kid-friendly. Cover by me :) ❥๑━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━๑❥
Pathos「Pokemon Fanfiction」 by izayoix
37 parts Complete
It's horrible to don a mask. Most wear some kind of mask in their life--and for the most part, they're never of the best quality. All they cause is useless self-destruction and pain, but the good thing about them is that they can hide some ugly part of you that you don't want to show to the world. They're always a step down from what you think they'd be, always a notch lower than expectations, and always a lie to hide from the reality around us. ...of course, there are those that can see through those masks too, and it's supposed that Arceus created these humans to keep the world's sanity. That's all Avis wishes for, because it's nearly impossible to find any semblance of peace in this midst of war and chaos. To him, that's staying alone; staying out of others' business, and for the first seventeen years of his life, he's done that pretty well. § Avis can only hide in the shadow of his twin brother's strength, stranded in a country ravaged by war and destruction--and he tries to live his life in the darkness peacefully. He doesn't need to be noticed by everyone. The illusion of a functional, ideal life, however, is shattered when his family's balance is destroyed, and he thus dons his first mask. § For all his life, Avis had been taught that disaster was bad. For the most part, he's believed that much--he only needs to think of ungraceful piles of debris and blood-caked grounds to be convinced of that. At eighteen, he finds himself starting to doubt it--just a little. He can hate disaster for tearing his life to pieces, but he can't quite hate it for granting him something better than a miracle. § Tonight, these children don their masks.
Vampdragums- Life of a Dragon Empress by RyugaSama
37 parts Complete Mature
Long ago for many years we have existed in our secret place, us Vampdragums, body of a human, wings of a dragon, powers and moves as a vampire, and very attractive. Not accepted by humans, titled Freaks, monsters. But that all changed when I was born, the new Dragon Empress, the only one born with black leathery dragon wings. Growing up, I was taught many things. How to defend, how to attack, and how to control my eternal powers. Everyone always expected me to be like my mother a good powerful leader who had died from giving birth to her 51st child. The clan was dying out and my people were trying to save the population, but not me. I had bigger plans in store for my people. By the age of 15 I left my clan with one of my many sisters, Nema. She is the same age as me, and knows a lot of combat skills, her power is to read people's minds. My journey was very interesting, it took a long time for people around the world to get used to us and accept us once we did good deeds, like winning battles, and keeping peace, making sure everyone's safe. I alone became famous and got a lot of attention from millions. I even made head lines for saving people's lives, at first Nema shielded me from the humans, she still didn't trust them for a while until she met one special guy she fell in love with. She refused to tell me about him, so I didn't bother asking twice. You never ask Nema something twice or she'll be very angry. But she became more trustworthy to humans and made many friends. As for my clan, we were allowed to live with the humans and we were treated with lots of respect. But only my sisters came to live in the open world with me while the rest of them stayed behind. We made many friends, but most back stabbed me later on in time. And we lived well considering that my family was rich. But little did I know that my journey was just beginning.......
