I, Queen of Shadow, made the characters (except Jasmine) but all Pokemon, places and copyrights are Nintendo’s. Rising Despair Part 3: D.E.S.P.A.I.R. captain and pokemorphs (Five years before Ash Ketchum was born) If ya read the story's first few chapters then skip the next paragraph otherwise read on (Quick recap of the last chapter) *Hirongino worries for Jasmine (the next gym leader of Olivine City) and is travelling with Gurune Ivy, they are dragging along the wild girl Zanna. She protected what Gurune belives to be Silver Darkness which his Aunty Felina knows more about. Somewhere in the Hoenn region Tom, Lee and Gabz are attacked and now are waiting in the Pokemon Centre about Commander Vincent of Team D.E.S.P.A.I.R. WARNING LOTS OF WORDS PLEASE READ IT ALL! *************** Jean-Luc's POV (POV is Point of View) (No this not star trek but this does have a little mouse that will play a big role in the next 15yrs) In the cage I was trapped. No friends. A dead family. Just my best Pokepals. Azurana the Azurill my best friend and my starter. She and I caught Pikaham the Pikachu. I would of caught an Oddish but Team D.E.S.P.A.I.R. captured me and now my blonde hair, blue eyes and the rest of me are going to go under mutation. Lucky me. I wish I could talk to Azurana and Pikaham. I heard some people can talk to their Pokemon. I could tell them secrets that I hold dear. Then they took us. I was strapped to a wooden board and my DNA was extracted. Pikaham was on a simlar board in the same situation he was nervous and didn't let the men near him. I could see in the next room Azurana put in a test tube. Then the boss stopped extracting and muttered something. He put Pikaham and I in a chamber and hit a green button. Then I felt a grinding sound as Pikaham and I lunged to each other. We never collided but when the experiment was over there was no Pikaham. I stood up and the scientists cheered nervously. I was chained. Then I saw a mutating Azurana. She got taller. She got a human shape. She grew long black hair. The scientist wrapped her in a towel and she saw me. Or what was left. I was shorter and stockier and I had a Pikachu tail. I was yellow and basically imagine a pikachu's tail, skin and ears on a human. That's me. "T-Minus 366days until permanent Pikachu" said a scientist. 366 days and next year was a leap year so at 13:00 21/07/1994 I would be a permanent Pikachu and that would put a damper on my prom. Suddenly I heard Pikaham then his instincts kicked in and I realised Pikaham's passio for Azurana. So we/me rushed in and went to rescue Azurana. *************** Azurana's POV I sat as a human as a woman held me. I had hands and I didn't expect those until I evolved and I never knew I could have fingers. I sat lonely as I whimpered for Pikaham and Master Jean-Luc. Then Master JL (nickname and I'm lazy to type Jean-Luc) came in a Pikachu skin and grabbed me. I thought it was a costume but when he discharged the men and women I knew something major happened. "We pika go to chu get out cha." He said I didn't complain so he picked me up and as we ran past the mirror I was a blue skin five year old human. We ran away him looking grimmer and more upset. I asked him questions but he remained silent. After what seemed hours we hit the Rock Cave. Then he told me the story of how he would be a permanent Pikachu in 365days (its midnight) he didn't know my fate. I told him we'll make it through. But I didn't know what to believe. *************** We treked the landscape. Over the few days we had to ourselves I noticed that JL became more Pikachu. List: Day 1- eyes from deep blue to Pikachu brown Day 2- nose became Pikachu nose (really weird earlier) Day 3- started using eectric cheek sacks Day 4- started to walk on all fours It was really weird and by the time we reached a town (Hey I can't read!)Day 5 made him well shrink May of been in a weird place but I was ok cause one I had Gurune with me and two I could still use my moves. *************** Usual third person who can read thoughts (AKA me Pikana) "How's Gabs?" asked Spitz "Better but the doctor said she needs rest cause she has been traumatised." said Tom "We got her a gift. A bug type!" said Blasto "Aren't girls afraid of bugs?" asked Burnzar "NO!!!" screamed Penny "Ok" said Bob mischieviously "Go pokeball." In front of Lee a Scyther appeared "Like you got to be kidding me. I'm a Pokemon of a Pokemon?" she said looking at Bob "Smoooooooth." said Lee "No our mistress is sick and we need you to help." "I am not a greeting card." she said "What your name and price?" said Sable "The name is Cyleen and my price is no lameness, lots of contests (I hate battling) and food" "Cool. You'll get that anyway. Lets go" *************** "Ummm...Hirongino?" "Yes Zanna?" "What happens if the Vermillion Boat sinks?" "Well we will just swim... why?" "Hello Hirongino? You awake? Forest girl never see the sea? In short she CAN'T SWIM!" yelled Gurune shaking him wildly (Think of Homer and Bart being strangled.) "STOP IT! Well I'll just have to catch a water pokemon." "You can't just catch a pokemon. It takes time and patience and..." "Done, Guys meet Lynda my Lapras." yelled Zanna "She's quick." mumbled Jibulba "She could catch a magikarp, She could catch a remomeraid but NOOOOOO.... She had to catch a Lapras in a populated city." Gurune moaned Meanwhil Chet was giving Andrew an english "Ok F***! Now you try." "Finster!" "No F***" "F***" "CHET STOP TEACHING ANDREW BAD WORDS!!!" yelled Lady Scream as she Solar Beamed Chet "Mehehehe." as Chet promptly faints "Can we go now. I wanna share a boat room with Gemma." Said Darkmoon Gemma slaps him "Let's just get on the F***in boat" Said Andrew Andrew was returned and Chet was severely bashed by Jibulba and the other pokemon *************** "Oh whyyyyyyyy did I let gooooooo." Sung Tom as he shattered Lee's glass. "Note to self never let Tom sing." mumbled Lee as he returned his pokemon and Tom's as they begged to get away. Jubilife City was a sparkling place and well it was kind of boring the only threat were pokemorphs but they were scared of Tom's singing. And Gabs didn't blame them. "I hate Monday's." moaned Bob "Why?" Penny retorted "cause the adult content of this fic made you drunk." "No 'hiccup' I'm not." "And I got you out of two bar fights." "Lets go gamble!" "You are so hopeless. I so wish Gabs didn't go to sleep" "Do you want her ear drums shattered from thart?" Penny points at Tom while Lee is making a profit out of selling earmuffs and corks. "Good point I..." Penny goes into a casino that would be shuting down in a few days The man says they can't play and they ae taken next door, a Pokemon Casino. "Here's your change doll enjoy your day." Said a slezy Weaville "Thanks 'hiccup' i will" SINCE GAMBLING IS NOT APPROPRIATE AND ALOT OF WORDS SHOULDN'T BE SAID I'LL JUST SAY PENNY WON 369 TOKENS HOW I DON'T KNOW (Ok naybe Bob was tweaking the slots.) "Here is a Pokemon who can't play their debts. Chose two lah." said the Weaville not caring' Penny took two ralts (male and female) and Bob looked disgusted and secretly used psychic to free the pokemon as they were leaving. "NOOOOOOO dont kill me." yelled the Weaville' *************** Lady Scream looked out to the sea. It was midnight and for once no one was awake. She sighed. 120yrs ago she died of a broken heart. Her nick name was Lady Scream but it was once Cecelia. Her lover eloped and she did suicide. She was now doomed to walk as the lowest form of ghost pokemon. A gastly not a misdrevious. "Mind if i join you?" Her new best friend Macho appeared. He never made any attempt to flirt with her yet she wanted him. She dare not risk it (Bloody hell what english was that???) in case of another few hundred years of condeming "We will be arriving soon you know." he said with his lush voice I looked at him then glanced through the horizon. We stood there for hours till the sun rose. *************** Ok A bit mushy there but hey thats love.
