Chapter 1
It was a perfectly normal day in the life of Lance Dragyn, the sixteen-year old Champion of the Elite Four and Indigo league.
It was, until he found the Persian being attacked by a gang of kids. Dragonite made swift work of them, Twister never killed anyone, and he took the cat home and bandaged it up.
Frowning at the bandage on its forehead, he removed it.
What?
What breed of Persian had black crescent moons on their foreheads?
“Hello.”
“Hi…” Lance said. Talking pokemon weren’t that unusual though. A lot of rich people bred their pokemon solely for that trait.
Pidgey and spearow were rumored to be good conversationalists if trained as well.
“Thank you for saving my life.”
“It was nothing. Those little brats deserved it.” Lance said. “Do you have an owner? I’ll take you home.”
“That is unnecessary. Here. A gift for you.”
Persian undid the gold collar he had been wearing.
Lance took it; blinking as it changed to a gold necklace on a fine chain. The charm was a small, triangle-shaped pink crystal.
“Well, thank you…”
Lance slipped it over his neck, underneath his black catsuit. “Do you need a meal before you leave?”
“Can I stay here with you?”
“… I suppose.” Lance said. “Just stay here.”
Persian nodded and curled up for a nap. “By the way, my name is Solar.”
“Solar… pleased to meet you then. I’ll see you later.”
Off Lance went to a day of long meetings…
That night…
< Moon to Sun, Moon to Sun, do you copy? >
< Sun here. I hear you loud and clear. >
< Have you found the first? >
< Yes. I have found the first. >
< That is well, for the time the dark kingdom attacks draws near. >
< I will train her. >
< Very well. Moon out. >
Solar looked at Lance, sleeping peacefully. He sighed. * What a pickle… oh well, no time to lose… *
The next day…
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Lance stared at the monster in shock. * What the-? That’s definitely not a pokemon…. *
It continued to breathe fire, terrorizing the residents of the park.
With a sigh, Lance released his Dragonairs and sent them out to attack. Great was his surprise when hardly any damage was done.
“Lance.”
The Persian looked at him seriously. “Are you going to save them?”
“I’m trying my best…” The Dragon Master said grimly, as Gyarados took out a large chunk of the monster’s arm with his sharp teeth.
“Lance, I want you to close your eyes…”
Lance looked at Persian skeptically.
“It will help!”
“You’d better be correct…”
The pink crystal flashed. A second later, Lance opened his eyes and stared in shock. “What the-?”
What in the world… white met his vision, a white leotard, the pink crystal winking between – ack! Were those breasts? He was a male, wasn’t he? From the back a long tail of pink ribbon trailed down from a bow right above his butt. He also had white gloves that went up to his elbows trimmed at the edges with pink, and pink boots that went up to his knees. A white mask covered his face.
“Hentai~! What is this? I look like I’m posing for playboy!”
“Oh, I was right! You have become the Moon Warrior!”
“… This is what the ‘moon warrior’ wears?”
Persian nodded.
“So what do I do now?” Lance asked as she twitched.
“Attack the monster.”
“Oh, I have attacks? Excellent! What are they?”
“Hmm… you start with Moonglow and Crescent Kick. But Moonglow is used for healing yourself.”
“Crescent Kick!”
Lance was suddenly catapulted through the air towards the monster as the very sharp heel on those pink boots embedded itself in the monster’s face.
The monster gurgled, melting into a puddle of black goo.
“Wow, that was easy…” Lance remarked. “Now how do I change back?”
“Touch the crystal.”
Lance colored slightly as she accidentally poked herself in the female attributes, but the crystal glowed pink and when it cleared, he was back to normal.
“So now I have to fight those things?”
Persian nodded.
“May I ask, why did you choose me?”
“I…well, it’s hard to explain.”
“Oh? Was it random selection?”
“You have power.”
“Of course I have power! I’m the Pokemon League Champion and a Dragon Master!”
“That’s why I picked you.”
“But… but… that’s a girl’s job. Why didn’t you pick Lorelei?”
“She’s not strong enough.”
Lance sighed. “Is this a lifelong position?”
“Um… I think so.”
“No one can tell it’s me, right?”
“Don’t’ worry about that. Glamour gets cast over you every time you henshin, I mean, transform. Besides, you’re a girl.”
“That’s true. Were all the moon warriors girls?”
“Yes, as a Moon Warrior.”
“Oh well… I’ll live I suppose. Are there any other warriors out there?”
“I don’t know right now, but I suppose so.”
“Guess I’ll just deal with it.” Lance said. “Hope no more monsters show up…”
“You’re being very calm.”
“Fighting it does no good, ne? Well, I’m back to the Plateau now.”
And off they walked into the sunset.
