@killet: Thanks for the tip, but why would you even bother to read my SU?

@Fuyu: I did what was requested of me, about a paragraph for each one. I'm not changing it so you can decline me, i don't care.
 
Okay, so here's my SU. I posted before in this thread, and when I tried to edit my post, instead of clicking "Go Advanced", I accidently clicked "Delete".
.-.



Name: Alicia Kandreiph.

Age: 16.

Gender: Female.

Appearance: Alicia stands at a mere 5'3, something she absolutely despises about herself. Due to her mixed heritage (black and white), her skin takes on a dark olive color. Her hair is extremely wavy, almost curly. It's light brown in color, and there are natural dirty blond highlights through it due to her constant exposure to the sun. Her eyes are extremely light brown, sometimes mistaken for a darker shade of yellow. She weighs about 110lbs. She's filled out on bottom, but no so much on top. Though, she's still oddly proportionate. She prefers slightly baggy, cotton shirts over tight ones. She normally wears skinny jeans tucked into neutral colored boots, and a neutral colored belt with her Poke-balls on it. When it get's colder, she wears a light brown crumpled leather jacket. She is never seen without her golden heart necklace, the heart is a locket that none are allowed to open. It rests right beside her actual heart in the middle of her chest.

History: From birth to the age of ten, Alicia was a bouncy, bubbly, and happy child. She ran through the house like a wild animal, always smiling and having fun. She never talked back, though, and she never complained. She never cried, or and it was a rare occasion for her to do anything negative a normal child would do. She was always a loving child, and had loving parents to match.

One afternoon, her parents decided they wanted to go out for dinner. This wasn't unusual, about every few weeks or so they'd go out on a Friday night together. Of course, Alicia never minded. She was dropped off at her grandmothers like every other Friday night outing her parents went out on. But, Alicia did mind when her parents never came back to pick her up. Instead, her grandmother received a phone call from the police, stating that her parents had died in a car crash on their way back from dinner.

When her parent's died, custody was transferred to the closest relative she had besides her parents, and that was her grandmother. At first, Alicia didn't want anything to do with her grandmother. She didn't want anything to do with anybody. She hated the fact that her parents were gone, and that it'd be a while before she'd see them again. Because of this, she didn't yet see the point in getting close to anyone else if they'd just later be taken from her. No, she wasn't exactly depressed, but she was never the same optimistic person again.

After about a year, though, she stopped distancing herself from other people. She started to gain her old spark back, but, as stated before, she was never quite the same ask she used to be.

Personality: As stated in her history, Alicia is a somewhat bubbly, optimistic person. She is full of laughter and happiness when she's with people she's familiar with, but when she's around strangers, she becomes extremely bashful. She does have a temper, though, and when pushed to the limit, it's unleashed.

Color(s) of Soul: Blue, Yellow, Black.

Legendary(ies): Manaphy.

Pokemon: Evee (planning on evolving it into a Jolteon)

Pokemon Nickname: Jolt.
Gender: Male.
Personality: Jolt is a very calm Pokemon. He doesn't like being in a Pokeball, though, and if you attempt to put him in one, he will be forced to betray his calm nature. He's a very kind and loving Pokemon--to Alicia.
Moves: Tail Whip, Headbutt, Tackle, and Synchronize.


Legendary: Manaphy.
Nickname: Macy.
Gender: Female.
Personality: Macy is much like her partner used to be, bubbly, bouncy, happy and wild. She is an extremely excitable Pokemon. Though, when she is around other trainers and Pokemon (save from Jolt), she is somewhat shy. She, like Jolt, absolutely despises being put inside a Pokeball, but if it's necessary, she won't through a fit.

Gahh, my bad. I'll change it. (:
 
I'll edit the first post with who's in shortly. However, I do believe it's time to get started.

Chapter 1: Spiritual Beckoning

(First Post)
You stand outside, in the finally calm night. All day you have been hit by the strangest of weather. (Take of that what you will). As you try to relax, the sky bursts with light. Something rockets toward you and hits between your feet. A strange creature gets up and stares at you. It holds a piece of paper and remains next to what could be an egg… The paper is a letter, a desperate cry for help. What's your next move?
 
Name: Jason Rave
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Red hair, somewhat long, with two ram-like curs around his ears. His eyes are a pure white color, a gift given to him from his father. He has light brown skin, and a perfectly clear complexion. He has a long neck, for which he gets teased, and is medium sized. He has long arms and legs, and they are somewhat muscly, but not to the point where it looks like working out is all he does. He wears a blazer, always unbuttoned, over an orange shirt. He has on dark black athletic shorts and green tennis shoes. Yes. Green tennis shoes that make him unique and were given to him by his grandfather.

History: The fear has never stopped coming back to his mind. It is imprinted in his brain so that every good thought is destroyed by the same egregious one. His parents abandoning him; leaving him in a pile of dirt in some alley way. There he was found by two kind senior citizens, who in turn, raised him as their own. He grew to love them, and called them his grandpa and grandma, as he had never had his own.Unlike his actual parents, who taught him the art of pick-pocketing, making other people pity him, and thievery, these taught him compassion, kindness, and grace. After learning his parents' involvement in a gang, he sought out to search for them. Unsatisfied with his results, he turned back to crime. What made him snap out of these acts, was when the same gang his mother and father worked for killed his new parents. He saw that people could never change, and has wanted to avenge them ever since.

Personality: Cold, brutal, and fragile. These three words, though contradictions to each other, show his most inner feelings and his outer portrayal of himself. After being abandoned so many times, he tries to act as brutal and cruel as he can to the world so that it has no chance of returning the favor. But on the inside, he is just a young man trying to find his way through life. He is weak without someone to hold and care for, but when anyone gives him attention, he plans to hurt them so they don't do the deed first. This is why he lives a solitary life, moving from city to city in search of any way out of this lifestyle.

Color(s) of Soul: Blue and Light Pink.

Legendary(ies): Suicune

Weapons: None.

Pokemon: Sewaddle.
Pokemon Nickname: Buggy
Gender: Female
Personality: Buggy will never leave her master's side, even if he has hurt her badly, which he doesn't. She is a loving Pokemon, and tries to find the best in people. She strives to find ways into Jason's heart, and sometimes gets him to talk. On the contrary, she can be very slick and agile in situations. Jason has taught her how to escape horrid situations, such as kidnappings, with sheer force and wit. She will do what she has to survive, but never put her master in danger.

Moves: Camouflage, String Shot, Tackle, Cut? (Can I have that move? It's a common TM.)

Legendary: Suicune
Nickname: Freeze
Gender: Male
Personality: Freeze is the in the middle of Buggy and Jason. He is solitary but is not cold. He is compassionate, but does not care for the weak. He has judged these two to be stronger than the average Pokemon and human so he stays with them. He prefers to work in a group of two, not alone, but not compromised by so many people. He can be stubborn and buts heads with many of the people he meets on this journey. He fares well against many of his opponents by playing mind games or by pitting them against each other.

RP Sample: Jason could do nothing but watch Freeze heave endlessly. He had almost lost them, and he couldn't lose his best friends. Buggy wasn't faring much better against these harsh elements. He took off his jacket and covered Buggy with it. She instantly felt better. She let out a quick cough and then curled up against his arm. Jason planted himself next to the tired Suicune.

"F-freeze. Please don't leave us here. Please. You've- you've helped me so much..." his voice trailed off. Freeze made no sign of getting better. Made his paws were growing warm. With body heat, maybe Jason could save his friend. Freeze's shivers were growing less frequent, but his forehead was still ice cold, and there was no heart beat.

"Please don't go," Jason whispered as a tear trickled off his face and froze on Freeze.

The bird will be the word...?

-----

I was sitting on the railing of my porch, taking in the feel of the now perfect weather. It was not too hot, it was not too cold, it was perfect. There was also a gentle breeze, and the fact that it was night time and most people weren't out ruining it like usual, it was a hundred times better.

Earlier we had had the strangest weather. It had been snowing. Snowing, in the middle of summer. At first I had ran outside and laughed because it was snowing, and then I realized that there was not supposed to be snow in the middle of summer. Well, at least it had been a pleasent, albeit strange, surprise.

I closed my eyes and relaxed. I stayed like this for a fwe minutes, until I thought I saw a change in the lighting. I opened my eyes to see what looked like a meteor falling through the mesosphere. I quickly realized though that it was a lot closer than the mesosphere, and it was heading straight towards me. I didn't even have time to jump off my railing before dirt from my lawn was showering me. I muffled a squeel at the impact, and forced myself to look.

What I saw was the strangest thing ever, and possibly what would change my life forever. A giant bird. A giant blue bird. Sitting in my lawn. A giant blue bird. A giant freaking blue bird! What was it?!

After a moment I realized it was lowering its head, and it held a piece of paper in its mouth. I hesitantly took the piece of paper, and began to read it:

"I write these letters... in hopes that anyone can answer my plea. My world... it is dying. The sky has forgotten sunrise. The inhabitants are falling, falling to this strange song and slipping into the most bloodstained of madness. My world is tearing itself apart. If this goes on... both our worlds will die. I can not stop her any longer. By the time you read this I am certain she will have captured or killed me. The creature who carried this to you is a Pokemon. In that egg with it is also a Pokemon. Please, with these two, please fight to protect our worlds. Please... end my sister's life before the Gods raise her up to immortality.

Child of Wishes, Aiko"

"Okaaaaaaaaaaaaay then." I said as I finished reading the letter. If it were not for the giant bird and weird egg in front of me, I would think this was a prank. Wait? Weird egg? I looked up and sure enough, I saw some weird looking giant egg sitting next to the giant bird. I must have been in Mario World. I mean, giant weird looking creatures? What else? Well, apparently they were Pokemon, so I guess that was what else.

"Uuuuuhhh... Why don't we go... inside?" I said hesitantly. My parents weren't home at the moment, so they wouldn't be a problem. Plus, at this point I had no idea what else to do. Perhaps I could wait for some sort of news, or maybe just a clue. The first sentence in the letter did say "I write these letters" which was plural, so more people had to have just gotten something like this. Maybe I would hear something about them.

Roserade, my friend, you are accepted.

At last the sky was clear. The child sat out on his rickety balcony, staring blankly up at the sky that twinkled sadly in his eyes. Behind him, the house was already dark, his parents both having gone to bed. Len raised a hand to the air, as if trying to take the moon. It was an exhausting day for him, the power outage being only one issue the quiet boy faced during his day at school. He raised a hand to the unseen stars, as if trying to catch one in his fingers. The world is changing, he thought with a sense of apprehension. I don't think it's for the better.

The world abruptly exploded into light. He leapt away reflexively as something flew toward him. As the light dimmed, Len slowly climbed to his feet again, brushing grass from his clothes. Luckily neither of his parents were awake. A small pink feline-like creature was hovering where he had just been standing. Floating next to it was an egg and a letter. The letter floated, uncurling itself in front of him as the red and auburn egg fell into his arms. He unconsciously cradled it, sensing a feeling of safety. Looking up with some reluctance, he allowed his eyes to scan the letter.

I write these letters... in hopes that anyone can answer my plea. My world... it is dying. The sky has forgotten sunrise. The inhabitants are falling, falling to this strange song and slipping into the most bloodstained of madness. My world is tearing itself apart. If this goes on... both our worlds will die. I cannot stop her any longer. By the time you read this I am certain she will have captured or killed me. The creature who carried this to you is a Pokemon. In that egg with it is also a Pokemon. Please, with these two, please fight to protect our worlds. Please... end my sister's life before the Gods raise her up to immortality.

Child of Wishes, Aiko


"Po-Ke-Mon?" The boy sounded out the unfamiliar word and looked at the pink creature, holding up the egg. "You? And this?" The creature nodded, choosing now to fly around the boy as he reread the letter again. Len blinked for a moment. "Someone needs to die," he stated softly. "Before everything gets worse. That girl said that." He was speaking in full, a rare thing. But the creature could tell, he was trying to calm down. The child was trembling, hazel eyes filling with a familiar fear. "What... can I do? They will; the worlds will die. What can I do?" The pink feline placed itself on his head, trying to calm him.

"Bad things are coming," the child whispered, overtaken by the urge to go inside. "I'm scared." The Pokemon followed him, unconsciously shutting the door behind it.

The note had fallen from the skies. Jason looked down at the creature that stood by his legs. He simply stood looking out into the night sky. How should he react? Should he be happy that he was invited to go on this adventure, or simply ignore this plead for help and keep the dog looking thing. He stared down at his new "partner". Jason's life hadn't been so great, so he turned to look at him.

"I apologize in advance if your life here is distasteful. My life is not of the up most quality. A little less than that." Jason chuckled to himself at the sarcasm. The animal simply looked out into the great beyond that was the desert canvas. In the midst of a city transition; this couldn't have come at a worse time. Actually, it came at the best time. City transition was Jason't favorite part of his life; it brought new beginnings but also abrupt endings. Sometimes, that was a good thing.

Jason took this time to scrutinize the creature. It was incredibly beautiful. It's pale blue skin brought color to the gray canopy of the tree he camped in. It had white swirls on its body, with white "streamers" hanging on its sides. It had a blue crystal shaped hoop on the top of his head, probably attached with some sort of adhesive. This would just be another mouth to feed, but a beautifully carved one. Actually.... Jason would enjoy the company of another spirit. The he peered around the firm legs of the creature and saw a light green color. He reached out his hand to touch it, which was quickly stopped by the animal- er- Pokemon, as it was called in the letter. The letter!? He had barely reread it, he had gone into shock after seeing this appear.

The strangest things had happened when it appeared. Crystals were falling from the upset sky, it's clouds a pure blue. He looked the letter over again. He remembered the burst of light that was barely visible in the already illuminated summer sky. But you could see the faint light in the middle of the sky, as if the Northern Lights had somehow moved their way here. The crystal pieces falling from the sky, even if caught, would melt in your hand like snow. Then the beast came. It introduced itself with a bow and it opened its mouth as if to talk, but quickly shut it. The Pokemon looked Jason over, finding any flaw he could. There were so many Jason wondered how he could have stopped so quickly. Then it gave him the letter. Jason didn't know what to think of this letter. How strange it was, that this had been given to him by some sort of clown animal. But, it felt so real. As if, this letter, would actually guide him to some kind of mystical land. Only for him to have to kill someone. Death, something he was so close to. Jason crinkled the paper up in his hand and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath, "Is this real?" he looked over at the beast.

"Yes. I come from a world inhabited by Pokemon. I am Suicune, king of the legendary beasts. What is your name?"

"I- you can talk?" the Suicune looked annoyed, "I'm Jason. What does this paper mean?"

"It means what it says. You must find a way into this world, and find the writer of this letter." he sighed, "This is also for you." Suicune picked up the egg-like object and placed it in Jason's hands. It trembled and Jason heard a slight heart beat. He held it tight to his face; it was so warm and inviting.

"Freeze. You look like a Freeze. So that's what I'll call you." Jason forced a smile, and the Suicune, Freeze, forced one back.
 
Standing before the kitchen window, Archie looked out while eating a granola bar. Parents were out at a concert out of town, which meant he had the house to himself. Not that there was much to do. The house was too small to throw a party, and the wind was so strong it would be hell to go anywhere. It had even knocked over one of the garden ornaments outside. As he watched out the window, though, the wind seemed to calm a bit. The swaying trees were no longer bending over, straining against the wind. He saw something on the lawn and squinted a bit, seeing that he had left his baseball bat lying on the lawn in plain view. "That's just asking for someone to steal it."

Opening the door, the young man stepped out into the night. The heavy wind had now calmed to a light breeze, and it felt kind of nice. Stepping out into the backyard, Archie picked up the bat and turned to return to the house, but stopped when he saw something dart behind a trash can. Holding his bat threateningly, he called out to it, "Hey, who's there?"

There was no answer but a meow, as a little black cat stepped out from behind the trash can. It was nothing but Archie's cat, Felix. He knew he was forgetting something outside... besides his bat. Returning the cat to the house, he sat on the step in front of the door, admiring the night sky. The city lights prevented seeing any real stars, unfortunately, but there was one bright one in the sky. And what ever it was was getting brighter. Standing up on the step, he moved to reenter the house, but was forced to hold a hand over his eyes from the bright light, as something crashed down in his yard. Opening them, he beheld... a little green fairy and an egg. What the hell?

The fairy quickly flew up to Archie, much to his surprise, and he ducked into the house. Before he could close the door though, the fairy got in and landed on the kitchen counter. It was holding up a piece of paper, waving it in the air. Slowly walking towards it, still carrying his baseball bat in one hand, he plucked the paper out of its hand with the other and unrolled it.

"I write these letters... in hopes that anyone can answer my plea. My world... it is dying. The sky has forgotten sunrise. The inhabitants are falling, falling to this strange song and slipping into the most bloodstained of madness. My world is tearing itself apart. If this goes on... both our worlds will die. I can not stop her any longer. By the time you read this I am certain she will have captured or killed me. The creature who carried this to you is a Pokemon. In that egg with it is also a Pokemon. Please, with these two, please fight to protect our worlds. Please... end my sister's life before the Gods raise her up to immortality.

Child of Wishes, Aiko
"

"Holy... what is this, Final Fantasy?" Archie asked to himself, shocked when he received a reply.

"Nope, this is actually happening~" chirped the fairy, hopping off the counter and flying towards Archie. In honesty, Archie wasn't sure whether it had spoken to him, or thought to him. Ducking away from it, Archie reflexively held up the baseball bat to defend himself, only to find it yanked out of his hands by some unseen force, "No need for that, I'm not here to hurt you. Now, we should go get that egg before it gets cold..."

The fairy opened the door without even touching it, going out to retrieve the egg. Archie quickly locked the door behind it, reaching for the phone. Wait, who was he gonna call? Fairybusters? Instead, he grabbed the bug spray out of the cabinet, looking out the window. There was a click as, once again, the fairy opened the locked door without any contact and entered with the egg, his baseball bat floating in the air beside it. Archie held up the bug spray, "Look, fairy thing, I don't want anything to do with your little adventure. Back off, or I will spray you. No clue what this does to fairies but, it can't be healthy."

"I am not a fairy," and then Archie's only weapon was yanked out of his hands again, landing in the trash can. The fairy set the egg on the floor, and floated over, slapping him in the face, "I'm a Pokemon. A Celebi. Didn't you read the note?"

"I said, I don't want any part of your magical Never Neverland adventure, okay?" Archie held up his hands in a defeated fashion, "But it seems I'm not being given a choice, am I?"

"Now you get it~!" the Celebi said in a singsong voice as it handed the bat back, before placing the little golden-brown egg in Archie's arms. He could already tell he had a long, fantastic day ahead of him. This suspicion became true as the clock in the living room chimed twelve.
 
It was night. I was asleep. Or, at least, I should be asleep. Instead, I was outside by the garden, drinking a cup of herbal tea. The horrible heat had died down. Not sure why, it just kind of did. The temperate night along with the tea, calmed me down so I could get to sleep. The sky was clear. Not quite filled with stars, but clear. The moon was shining its light. This couldn't get any better...

Until the sky flashed an intense light onto the world. My eyes shut involuntarily and I covered my head too, spilling most of the tea onto myself. What in the world was that? The sky doesn't do that. I opened my eyes a bit to see if the light was still there. It was gone. I pinched myself to see if I was dreaming. I wasn't. I still can't believe that happened. Things like that don't happen.

That's when something landed on my head. It felt like a piece of paper. I picked it up off my head. It was a piece of paper. Where did it come from? Strange things keep happening, one after another... It had some thing written on it.

I write these letters... in hopes that anyone can answer my plea. My world... it is dying. The sky has forgotten sunrise. The inhabitants are falling, falling to this strange song and slipping into the most bloodstained of madness. My world is tearing itself apart. If this goes on... both our worlds will die. I can not stop her any longer. By the time you read this I am certain she will have captured or killed me. The creature who carried this to you is a Pokémon. In that egg with it is also a Pokémon. Please, with these two, please fight to protect our worlds. Please... end my sister's life before the Gods raise her up to immortality.

I couldn't help but laugh at it. This is probably just a hoax. What the heck is a Pokémon? I must admit, it's a very elaborate hoax. Someone probably has a spotlight and a helicopter. I spilled my tea over nothing. Now I'm gonna have to change my clothes and take a shower and-

CRASH.

Something struck the ground no less than two feet in front of me. I was reluctant to look at what it was. I turned my head to the crash site. What I saw terrified me to the point where I couldn't even scream. It was a giant bird. It wasn't even a normal bird. It was bright yellow with black underneath its wings and its feathers were all pointed toward the ends. Animals like this don't exist. Nothing like this exists. This can't be a hoax. Does that mean the note was real too? Although I was terrified, the giant bird in front of me seemed relatively uninterested. Okay, this is good. Gotta keep a cool head. In case it tries to attack... I looked around to see a heavy-duty rake resting on a wall. It's heavy and almost taller than me, but I'll have that rake to defend myself. I swallowed saliva and the noise of it caused the bird to turn around. It's expression read anger and its cold, small eyes sent chills down my spine.

It began walking toward me, and... is it sparking? All of my hair began to stand on end. Jellyfish have bio-electricity, but I've never heard of a bird that can do it. It was still moving closer. I began taking slow trudges backwards, getting ready to use the rake. It was only a few metres away and it took me a few seconds, but they were the longest few seconds of my life. Finally, I had a hand on it, the bird spread its wings, I grabbed the rake with both hands and swung the blunt side at its exposed stomach as hard as I could.

A swing of steel to the body would shatter any animals ribcage. I grinned, thinking I get to live another day, but the bird didn't fall. I looked up, worried, to see its expression hadn't changed. In fact, it looked angrier. I heard a spark and immediately pulled the rake off of the bird. I rested the heavy gardening tool on the ground. I was breathing heavily and sweating. The bird looked at me with what seemed to be contempt. No one looks at me with contempt.

I gripped the wooden handle with all of my might, let out a battle cry, turned the rake onto its sharper edges and swung at the bird with more force than before. The bird flapped its wings and hopped back about two metres before I made contact. I didn't let up. I threw the rake like a javelin at the bird. It hit it right in the stomach and, before it hit the ground, I picked it up. I swung it horizontally toward the bird. It dodged by flying up into the air.

In just a few seconds, it was beyond my reach. I was waiting for it to do something... It spread its wings and starting firing lightning bolts into the air, almost as if it were showing off its powers. After this display, it came back down. I had already dropped the rake. It looked at me as if it were saying it could kill me any time it wanted. I managed to contain most of my fear. It looked me straight in the eye. I no longer saw contempt.

The giant bird lifted its wing up toward me. I'm not entirely sure, but I think it wants to shake hands. I reached out my hand and grabbed its feathers. I could feel tiny bits of electricity on my hand. However, our eyes never wavered from each others'. I now saw respect in its eyes. Like our handshake created a bond. I can't really explain it though. I just knew. The lightning bird flew away, but, I had a feeling I'd see it again...

That reminds me, another thing was at the crash site. From here, it looked like a giant egg? I picked it up. It looked like an egg. It was yellow and green at the top. It felt warm. I wonder if all of this has to do with the note. What did it say? I dropped it once I saw that lightning bird and it's too dark to find. Something about another world being destroyed? The apocalypse? I have to kill someone who's about to ascend to godhood? Ultimately, I decided to keep the egg. If the world was going to end, maybe this thing will save us all from certain damnation.

It was a wonderfully beautiful, starry night. Alicia sighed peacefully, sitting on the lounge chair on her balcony off of the back of the house. Her grandmother was out for the night, playing poker. So that meant she was home alone. She loved being home alone. It gave her time to think.

It gave her time to think of her parents, and wish they were here with her. It gave her time to mourn without having to hear her grandmother tell her that there was nothing anyone could do, it was their time to go. It gave her time alone.

Just as she began gazing up into the night sky, planning on counting the stars, there was a huge flash of white light in the spot she was looking up at. Alicia's eyebrows furrowed in curiosity, and in response to the light she looked down and covered her eyes. She'd never seen anything like this before, and she'd never heard of anything like this before. Was a hole opening in the atmosphere or something? Just my luck. She pushed the thought out of her head. When she looked up again, she found the light had disappeared just as quickly as it had come. She stood up, staring at the spot in she sky in awe.

Due to her "awe", she didn't notice the small, blue creature holding an envelope and an egg at her feet until it pulled at her pants leg. When she did see it, she let out a little yelp.

"What the heck?! What's going o--" the creature floated up and put a hand over her mouth and handed her the envelope. "Read it," She sounded like she was a five year old girl. Alicia, still somewhat frightened, complied. She opened the letter.

I write these letters... in hopes that anyone can answer my plea. My world... it is dying. The sky has forgotten sunrise. The inhabitants are falling, falling to this strange song and slipping into the most bloodstained of madness. My world is tearing itself apart. If this goes on... both our worlds will die. I can not stop her any longer. By the time you read this I am certain she will have captured or killed me. The creature who carried this to you is a Pokemon. In that egg with it is also a Pokemon. Please, with these two, please fight to protect our worlds. Please... end my sister's life before the Gods raise her up to immortality.

Child of Wishes, Aiko


"So... you're a Pokemon?" Alicia asked, sitting back down on the chair. The small creature floated and sat down beside her. "Mhm!" it replied cheerfully, handing the egg to her. "And whatever's in that egg is, too." The egg shook slightly from the unfamiliarity of the person holding it.

"Do... do you have a name?" Alicia asked, looking down at the blue creature. "Yes. My name is Manaphy. When we get back to the Pokemon world, I will no longer be able to communicate with you like this. I will speak my own language, and you're going to have to learn how to understand it."

"Woah, woah, woah." Alicia said, putting the egg and the letter down, standing up. "I am not going to this "Pokemon World". I don't even understand what I'm supposed to do! How am I supposed to help?" She wasn't sure if she was talking to Manaphy or if she was talking to herself. Whatever it was, she sat back down and sighed. "You are going back, because I'm taking you back." the Manaphy smiled a friendly smile, and took Alicia's hand. Alicia looked back at the Manaphy. "Can I call you Macy? You look like a Macy, and from the legends I've heard about you Pokemon... there are more than one."

"Call me whatever you'd like." Macy smiled.
