Prologue
Raven peeked cautiously over the tall patch of grass. She was hunting in the forest she called home. Mom told her that the humans called it Kinleaf, but she rarely saw humans this deep in the forest. She was in her secret area, where the trees seem more alive and there are more Pokemon scurrying about.
She waited patiently behind the grass and soon her patience was rewarded. An oblivious Rattatta soon came bounding over in her view. The purple rat sat up on its hindlegs, sniffed the air, and laid back down
to eat the grass.
“Now’s the time,” she said, smirking. At that, the young Houndour pounced. Rattatta shrieked and attempted to flee. Raven was faster and within seconds, had Rattatta by its neck between her teeth. Raven applied pressure to the neck and Rattatta’s body went limp. She dropped the dead rat on the ground and set it ablaze with her flamethrower. When she saw that the body was brown and toasted, she set to work on devouring it.
When she was finished, Raven licked her fangs and then turned to the sky. It was near sun-down. She could tell because the sun was setting over the horizon.
“Whoa, better get back home before mom or dad freaks,” she said, kicking the carcass to the side and running back to the trail she made between home and her hideout. The path was a set of trees which was marked by a pair of burnt marks.
“That’s weird,” she said as she reached the spot. Not a single tree in the area had a mark. Each of them were as clean and bare as the ones beside them. “I could have sworn it was right here.”
Raven paced back and forth in a scurrying attempt to find the starting trees, but still could not find it. After a while, she laid down on the ground. I..I can’t be lost she thought. I clearly marked the trees with my flamethrower She scanned the area while laying down. Her curiousity peeked suddenly when she saw something sticking out from between a set of trees.
Raven trotted over to the set of trees and discovered a small grey rock about two feet tall and three feet wide. Why would there be a rock in the middle of the forest? she wondered. Cautiously, Raven tried to headbutt it. Surprisingly, the rock moved foreward, but then an Earthquake shook the area.
“Whoa,” Raven exclaimed, trying to hold on as the ground rumbled violently. The rock shattered and then four walls shot up and boxed her in. She gulped and frantically looked around for an exit. However, there was no gap in any of the walls so she tried to stay calm. The walls then began to glow bright and a ceiling closed the opening from the top. Raven’s world suddenly went white and she passed out.
Chapter One
“Hey you!” a voice entered Raven’s consciousness and she started to feel a pushing feeling.
“M-mother?” Raven managed to say, before opening her eyes slowly. There was a small Pokemon she never seen before with a stick in their hand. It was small with silver on its fromt and blue down its back. It stood on two legs and had a dome-shaped head.
“Well, for one, I am a boy,” said the Pokemon. “Secondly, who are you? Why did you just appear? Are you magic or something?”
Appeared? Raven wondered. She slowly got to her feet and blinked. She then scanned the area. She was in a patch of grass overlooking {i]A valley?[/i] It seemed like the forest, but newer. She then looked at the Pokemon. “What is your species?”
The Pokemon blinked. “You mean you never heard of a Cranidos?” he asked. “Then again, I never met your kind before either. Hi, I am Kar. What and who are you?”
“Raven, a Houndour,” she said. “I really don’t know how I got here, wherever here is.”
“Hmm, magic must be,” said Kar. “You are in Kinleaf Valley. Enough chitchat, though. You need to come with me. As far as my dad’s concerned, you are an outsider.”
With that, Kar set off down the hill. He stopped midway before shouting back, “Hey, are you coming?” Raven blinked and then followed him down the hill. She thought she heard him say, “Just when you think ya seen it all.” She smirked and followed behind him. She suddenly had a curious streak in her and she wanted to explore.
Within minutes, the two of them reached a village made out of wood. She saw two Pokemon standing at the gate. They both were brown and also stood on two legs. Instead of hands, though, they had two curved blades. They stopped Kar before he entered.
“Who is this creature, Kar?” the Pokemon on the right said.
“Her name is Raven,” said Kar. Raven smiled slightly. “She is a..erm..was it Houndour?”
“Yes, I am a Houndour.” Raven replied, shyly. “I am new here and have never been here before. What Pokemon are you two?”
The Pokemon on the left stared at her. “Hmm, a Houndour. I never heard of such a Pokemon. I suppose you shall keep an eye on her, Kar?”
“Yeah, I am bringer her to father,” Kar replied. “She certainly isn’t going to cause trouble. I will guarantee it.” The two looked at each other before removing their bladed arms. “Very well, Kar.” Said the Pokemon on the right. He nodded solemnly, which Raven assumed meant to go ahead. Kar moved first and entered the village. Raven followed after him and the gates closed behind them.
Raven took a good look around the village. There were lots of weird looking Pokemon. The houses were made of straw and she saw nests built at the top of the houses.
Kar stopped abrubptly at the third house on the left. “This is my dad’s house,” said Kar. “Oh and by the way, those were Kabutops at the gate. You must not be from around here at all. Perhaps I should show you around afterwards.”
Kar then knocked on the wooden door and called, “Father? I found someone to meet.” There was a thud before the door swung open. Raven looked up to see a much larger Pokemon. It was large and was also blue and silver. It had a larger tail and red eyes.
“Hmm, Kar,” said his father. “Come inside, both of you.”
Kar nodded and came inside the hut. Raven stood there cautiously at first, but then followed Kar into the house. It was pretty much barren in the hut, except for the collection of rocks on the shelves and two rock like beds on the opposite side.
“So, what is your name, stranger?” Kar’s father asked. Raven blinked and turned to him.
“Raven, sir,” she said nervously. “I am a Houndour. I don’t really know how I got here.”
“It must be Celebi,” the Pokemon said. Kar looked at his dad with surprise.
“Celebi?” Raven thought she heard that name before, but wasn’t quite sure. Her mother always told her the story of Celebi, but she rarely payed attention.
“Dad, are you saying…” Kar asked in surprise.
“Yes, son, it was Celebi’s doing.” His dad finished off. “You must have been sent through time. You are a lucky one, Raven. Celebi must know something bad is about to happen here and she sent you to help.”
Raven nodded. “That has to explain it somewhat,” said Raven. “However, why would Celebi send me here and I am just a pup.”
“Even babies can move boulders,” his dad said. “I am to assume you don’t know much about this place at all. I am a Rampardos. I evolve from Cranidos here. Oh, and you can call me Jaran”
“I am planning to take Raven out to show her around,” said Kar. Jaran nodded.
“That would be wise,” Jaran replied. “Well, you two can go have fun I guess. Just be careful. Not too many Pokemon take so kindly to ‘outsiders.’” Kar smiled and nodded.
“Thanks, dad,” said Kar. “I assure you, she won’t cause trouble. Come on Raven.” Raven smiled slightly.
“Thank you sir,” said Raven. The two of them then left the hut and Kar started walking through the village.
“Well, first things first, the Pokemon,” said Kar as they walked. “You have already met Kabutops, Cranidos, and Rampardos, but there are other Pokemon here as well.” He stopped and pointed at the rooftops. Earlier, Raven did notice the nests built up there. “Those are Archeops nests. Archeops are birds that evolve from Archen. I would suggest not to mess with them or their eggs.”
