w.i.p how does it seem so far
A normal story… I guess. A girl is starting her Pokemon journey however it’s not normal, the world is wrong, and her dad Is gone, and she wants to find him, if not that just to know what happened. See not knowing things always bugged her, deeply, she never liked not knowing and never understood why she couldn’t get an answer, it wouldn’t hurt anything…right? “I wanna know,” Nora thought, “I really want to know.” Her father’s been gone for a while, maybe 3 months, “what happened, why can’t I know” Nora asked her mother. “You can’t handle it you’re a child,” her mother responded. “You always use that response and you can’t use it forever, I’ll find the answer it’s only a matter of time,” she talked into the phone at the Poke-center “you can’t stop me.” Right as soon as her mother opened her mouth to scold her she hung up. “It’s tiring ever just talking to her, I can’t anymore, with her… for a time.” “We’ve had this conversation so many times before, I just don’t know why I simply can’t know what happened” she said quietly in the poke-center “it never occurred to me that I can’t know VERY important things because I’m not as old as her.” “Nora Hart your Pokemon are fully healthy.” “Oh yes,” Nora said “thank you very much.” “Come back again!” The whole “come back” thing Nurse Joy’s always did really bothered her, like you want my Pokemon to get injured or something!? Anyways now that Zo (Zorua) is alright now we’re out. Anyways she is hungry, she hasn’t ate since yesterday, and its 1:00 pm. There’s a diner in town seems nice, anyways she isn’t complaining. She opens the doors and immediately accidentally hits someone with it, “OW” the person said. “SORRY SORRY MY BAD SORRY.” The person sighed deeply, as Nora slowly backed away. And that’s when she realized the place is PACKED. She looks back to start to get out of the building but there are already AT LEAST 5 people who replaced her spot as soon as she moved. She sighed and sat down and notices something. “Why are people sitting next to each other not talking?” She thought and the answer immediately came to her mind “people have to sit to strangers to be able to sit!” She found the one seat in the entire building that isn’t completely filled but the problem is… it’s completely empty, meaning that it’s open to anybody wanting to sit down. After hesitating for about a quarter of a second she realizes “it’s either I claim the seat right now or I don’t sit down,” so she sat down. As the waiter is coming over to her (took about an hour) a person hurries over to that seat across from her and… it’s the person she hit in the head. He suddenly sits down barely before the waiter got there to take their order. “Sorry” he said “gotta get my food eventually” they say after telling the waiter their drinks of choice. “Sorry for hitting your head as soon as I got in the building,” she said wincing. “Oh that was you, it’s alright happens all the time.” “Anyways what’s your name stranger?” The stranger said, “Nora, yours?” “Jay,” stranger aka Jay said. It got really awkward after that, they knew a grand total of 2 conversation starters, here’s the other one. “So you like Pokemon” Nora said, while tapping her lap in that weird, awkward way you do whenever you don’t know what to say. “…yeah?” Jay said. “What do you have “just a lil Pansear, you?” My little guy Zo or just Zorua.” The tension is finally broken when the waiter brings the drinks “here y’all go, enjoy” she said. And oh no ohhh nooo there’s one straw between the two drinks (Nora got a Dr. Pepper and Jay got a Diet Coke.) Nora let Jay have and is waiting for the waiter, so she wondered “if your waiting for the waiter are you now the waiter.” Anyways the waiter comes back distraught and says “…sorry I forgot the straw.” “Nah you’re fine” said Nora. “Straw acquired” Nora announced. The waiter gets back to them and takes their order for food. Apparently this place has a little gimmick. They give you a big styrofoam box full of different toppings that you can put on your burger! Anyways it got the job done, tasty. Nora finally got to leave, she said goodbye to Jay and walked out the building. She walks outside and on a random route, she’s not sure where, and she doesn’t really care. Zo is trailing behind her and suddenly isn’t. What is Zo looking at? She walks over to where Zo is standing and… it’s looking at nothing, she double checks and looks through the trees a little but nothing’s there, nothing living anyway. She looks back at Zo… still looking. That’s when she finally picked up Zo but even when she’s moving away Zo’s still looking at the same spot, eyes completely dead, staring. When Nora turns a corner Zo… jumps out of her arms and goes back to looking at it. Nora finally decides to put Zo in the ball and starts walking away. That seemed to put an end to it, and when she finally took Zo out at the poke center to rest, Zo was fine. “Does he even have a recollection of it?” She thought. She went to sleep for the night and had a dream, and… “what is that.” A dark shadow loomed over her. As she looked up she saw it a large creature. It seemed to have a red scarf on it with a white head and a dark body. It glared at her from the moment she looked up, it wasn’t THAT big.
