Introductions
The sun was beginning to set, casting shadows over the plains and hills. Strange bird sounds echoed across the horizon, their calls reaching miles away from their locations.
Your legs were growing tired, and the small weight behind your rear was starting to bug you, to the point which you took hold of your tail and held it as you walked. The only sound that you could hear was the voice of the creature walking beside you.
“Welcome to the world of Pokémon,” he started slowly, overlooking the horizon with his eyes squinted, his fur rippling as mild currents of wind rushed by them.
“If you remember, you were in a room filled with costumes, correct?” he asked, and you blinked before nodding in agreement. “Well, then you must’ve put on the Meowth costume.”
“Here are the rules. Since you put on the Meowth Costume, you’ll be stuck here for two weeks until the fortnight has passed. Since I’ll be with you throughout the whole time, well, most of the time, it’s up to you if you want to escape this realm. Unless, you could always quit and live here for the rest of your life,” Absol said with a smirk, and you immediately shook your head in refusal. Of course you didn’t want to stay here! You wanted to go back home! You couldn’t imagine what life would be like in this place.
“Alright then. The sun is setting, so we’ll be heading to my place…You have a huge journey in front you…And in order to overcome it, you need to master being a Meowth.”
You blinked in confusion, your ears twitching.
“That’s what you are. A Meowth. But if you already knew that, then, what I meant was that in order to survive, you need to sharpen your combat skills.”
Absol halted, reaching out a paw and stopping you in your tracks. The Pokémon lifted his head a bit, his eyes narrowing as he sniffed the air, his tail held low.
“I sense something…something big. And it’s coming our way,” he stated firmly, stepping forward in front of you. “I’ll take care of this. You, on the other hand, hide over there, behind that rock and bush,” he informed, gesturing with his horn to the side. In that same direction, did indeed lay a rock alongside a bush. Nodding your head, you ran toward it, hiding your small frame behind the rough texture. For some strange reason, your tail kept on twitching, the feeling of fear spreading upon your body. This was a weird feeling, something you’ve never felt before...
You jumped in surprise as the ground began to shake, as if thunder was trapped inside the undergrounds, blasting and hitting against the ground as hard as it could.
Absol lowered himself into a pouncing position, his eyes scanning the field in front of him. He backed up away from the steep hill, fearing that he may get crushed if the unknown source was running and not paying attention to where it was stepping.
Suddenly, a huge, grey object appeared from the distance, jumping up and landing onto the ground heavily.
Rhydon.
The Pokémon clearly didn’t look like it was in a good mood. Its eyes were narrowed, its teeth bared as it glared down at Absol.
