Hello, readers and writers of this community! Here I shall post my WIP fanfiction, Tower of the Stars!
Anyway, I'll posting this fanfic on another website as well, sonif you see it on Fanfiction.net, please dont assume that its someone else, k? Great, now then, lets get to the story!
Chapter one: Blue paws?
Memories flashed before me.
Would I dare believe these nightmares that took the form of reality? What was this city, that was shattered and burned into a pile of ashes? Where was I, hell, or was that once my home? Memories that once seemed to make sense all became lies when I stared upon the wasteland. My wasteland. Tears dripped from my eyes, and when they finally blinded me, the memory faded. My mind became blind to everything, and a face appeared, not one I had seen before, it was a face that wasn't human, it was mostly black and blue, with two floppy ear-like things hanging below its actual ears, and the face seemed to be that of some strange dog-like creature. I looked at its eyes, and its aquamarine eyes stared back. The strange creature stared back, but it seemed almost familiar...
Then I was dragged into nothingness.
...Where am I?
I could feel the bark of a tree on my head, and grass under my back. I attempted to open my eyes, but my muscles would not respond. I couldn't see anything thanks to my irresponsive muscles, but at least I wasn't unconfortable here...
A pissed off voice suddenly yelled at me, "Hey! You! What the hell you think you be doin in my territory, boy? Get out, or I'll have ta slash your neck, boy!"
Well, there goes the calm, here comes the storm. Shit, and my muscles are still not responding! I began to panic, but my muscles still wouldn't work. What was going on here? My conciousness returned, but I still couldn't move!
"Thats it, boy, you dont wanna go? Well then you die in your sleep, ya shit!" The voice continued. Shit, someone please help me here!
A few moments passed, but they felt like hours, and I panicked more than I think was safe for my health.
Then I heard another voice, but I couldn't quite understand what it said, but then I could hear a loud sound similar to an explosion, and it became quiet.
A voice, higher pitched than the other, and much calmer began to speak to me, "You have been paralyzed, but give me a moment, I have some cheri berries."
...Did that other guy paralyze me somehow? Why the hell would he do that? He wanted me out of his territory... Wait, what are cheri berries? Is he just mispronouncing "Cherries"?
My thoughts were interrupted as I felt a paw open my mouth and pour in a strange, spicy liquid. I hadn't swallowed yet, but I could feel my muscles begin to respond. In mere seconds, I was finally able to move, so I swallowed this "antidote", and slowly I got up and opened my eyes. Trees and bushes surrounded me menacingly.
...A forest? How the hell did I get here?
The voice spoke again, "I'm down here, by the way, and that damn Scizor is now toast, so dont worry."
...A Scizor? Wasn't that a pokemon? Pokemon don't even exis-
I looked at where my hand SHOULD be, and was, to say the least, VERY surprised.
"My hand... My hand is a FUCKING BLUE PAW?! WHAT THE HELL?!"
"Uh, are you sane? Riolu's dont have hands, they have paws. And of course your paw is blue, why the heck wouldn't it be?"
I looked for the source of the voice, only to find that it was a small, mostly black creature, with some red fur on its head and some above its eyes. Its paws looked like stubs. This was a zorua, no doubt, but pokemon STILL dont exist, so this has to be some weird dream, right? I continued to be shocked.
"You need help"
"I don't know whether I'm dreaming or not...", I muttered
The zorua responded in an offended tone, "Hey, I, for one, dont particuarly LIKE the idea of being a creature in some insane persons dream."
No wait, that was sarcasm, not anger.
"Uhhh... I swear, I don't even know what the heck is going on here. A moment ago I wasn't a riolu..."
"Alien race conspiracy? I think not. Now come with me if you dont like the idea of death-by-scizor-that-is-very-pissed."
"Um, sure, I guess", I was still clueless as to what was going on, but I figured panicking wouldn't help, so I forced myself to stay as calm as possible.
...I still dont understand, though, pokemon never existed before I showed up in this forest!...Or perhaps I'm just a complete idiot. Either one works.
I started to wonder how I got here, but nothing came to mind...
Wait a second, NOTHING AT ALL CAME TO MIND.
I FORGOT MY MEMORIES.
"Shit, where'd I put them?"
"Put what?"
"Uh, my sanity?"
"Probably elsewhere, but where almost at ther edge of the forest, then we go to town and find you a doctor."
This zorua was SERIOUS?!
"Uh, I was joking about me being insane, and about what I said before, I was joking...", yeah, that sounded believable, maybe. Maybe this zorua is already convinced I'm not sane.
"Dude, one does not simply get saved and pull an elaborate prank on their savior."
Damn, good point, but I should thank him about that.
"Uhm, anyway, thanks for saving me earlier, I owe you."
"No you don't, you actually served as a good distraction while I snuck up on that faggot. I actually was the one that put you there..."
"What the hell! Why did you do that?!"
"..."
Jerk, at least he didn't cause my death. That wasn't fun though.
"Well, I still am going to try to convince you that I was pulling a prank earlier."
"You already failed, dude", The zorua smirked.
I smirked as well, "Well, I still dont need a doctor, so I hope you were joking about that earlier."
"Yup, I was."
...Damn, this zorua is good at pulling pranks, but then again...
Its a zorua.
"Anyway, I should introduce myself, I'm Zack, a nomadic... Prankster..."
He didn't seem to be sure about being a "prankster", but I didn't feel like questioning him. After taking a moment to think, I then remembered my name, but still nothing else.
"I'm Jack Greensky, but I can't seem to remember anything else..."
"Well, I was heading to treasure town, you should come along, then, maybe someone there can help you.", Zack suggested.
"Sure."
And then we exited the forest. I was still confused, but at the very least I had a "Tour guide" in this strange new land. Still hoping this is a weird dream though.
Oh, and the story is SUPPOSED to be humorous, but it shall get darker later on. Very darker. :3
