Pokemon Journey

The Grand Canyon. A really beautiful place. And a perfect place to catch a new Pokemon!

It was one month after the release of the newest Pokemon Game called "Pokemon Go!". I was one of the first to got the new game and decided to travel around the world to find the different Pokemon and train them to become the strongest team!

... even I think that sounds a bit too nerdy.

Whatever. Today I was in America and visiting the grand canyon. I always wanted to go to America anyways and when I can get a few new Pokemon from this visit it's just better.

I held my Phone up and searched with the camera the surrounding area for any hiding Pokemon.

I heard something approaching me from behind, and as I looked, I saw through my Phone camera a Ninetales walking to the edge of the cliff and sitting down with a somehow concentrated look. I never saw any other Pokemon doing something like that. They normally just jump up and you can decide to fight or run away.

I lowered my Phone and looked back up.

...The Ninetales was still sitting there...

I blinked... then blinked again... then I looked to my right, left, up, behind me, back in front of me and then pinched my arm. It hurt.

"Ok." I thought to myself, "I can feel the pain. That would mean I'm not dreaming and there is really a Ninetales sitting at the edge of the cliff. A real one. Not from the game."

I looked once more around, then I took a small step towards the Ninetales.

It sat maybe 10 meter away from me and didn't seem to notice me. I took another step and another step until I was maybe 5 meter away. As I was about to take another step, I saw his ear flicker in my direction and I heard a voice in my head.

"That's close enough, Human."

I wanted to look around to see where this voice was coming from but remembered that some Ninetales could use telepathy.

I concentrated my thoughts and begun to speak in my head:

"Hello. Who are you?"

The Ninetales moved his head in my direction and looked at me with what I assume to be surprise. It maybe doesn't expected me to just talk in my head or this kind of response.

"Interesting... any other Human I have tried to talk to like that thought he was going crazy and run away... who are you?" came the same voice from before.

I smiled, being a little proud that my theory was right and answered:

"I'm pretty sure I asked first. But I will still answer your question. My name is Nils Kiener."

"Hmm... you speak different from the other Humans I have seen so far. Are you not native to this land as well?"

"Well, I come from a land called Germany. My English is not really the best, but It's enough to ask for the toilet."

I saw a small smile on the Ninetales face, which soon vanished.

"I think it's only fair when I introduce myself to you. My name is Luna and I'm known as a Ninetales. But I think you already know this part, am I right?"

"Except for the name, yes. I know what you are. Ninetales, a Fire Pokemon. The final evolved form of Vulpix. It is said you curse everyone who touches your tail... but I'm not sure if that last part is true since there are normally no real Pokemon in this world."

I explained via Telepathy. Luna smiled a and gave me a small nod.

"That is correct so far. And yes, everyone who touches my tail is getting cursed. But I have no real control over it. It's more like an instinct you can't stop."

I sat done on the ground where I stood and let out a sigh.

"You know, that's maybe the craziest situation I have ever been in, but I don't seem to freak out. That's a little weird. I always told myself I wouldn't freak out in a situation like that, but I never thought I would be this calm."

"Do you prefer to freak out and scream like a maniac?"

"No no. What I mean is, I sit here and have a conversation with a fucking REAL Pokemon. That's the dream of every Pokemon nerd in the world. And I sit here like I have a chat with a friend."

"I think you are just more able to collect your thoughts and think about situation reasonable then others. I can sense your excitement about meeting and talking with me, but you make sure you keep it under control and don't let it overwhelm you. That's why you didn't just run up to me. Instead you did make sure I would notice you first."

"Let's change the topic. If it's not too much to ask, what are you doing here? I mean in this world."

She looked back over the Canyon with a small frown on her face.

"Well, it's actually an accident that I'm here. You see, Dialga and Palkia are always fighting against each other. Normally they would fight in another dimension to not damage our world. But sometimes they fall in our world and don't stop fighting. Their battlefield was near my dent and as their attacks collided, it opened a portal to this world and I was just sucked in and landed here. Now I wait for an friend to bring me back."

"Hmm..." I thought to myself. "There are not many Pokemon who could do something like that. Only another Legendary would have this much power. When you can believe the FanFictions and Mystery Dungeon games, there are actually a lot of Legendarys who could do this... The Lake Trio, Mew, Arceus, Celebi, Jirachi..."

"How long have you been here?" I asked.

"It's now 2 weeks. You are the first one who actually talked to me since I came here."

"I don't want to crush your hopes or anything, but are your sure your friend will come? Or will even appear around this area?"

"I have actually already talked to her and she said she will come today and bring me back."

"Good to hear. Would you mind if I stay? I would like to see this friend of yours, if that's ok. And it wouldn't be so lonely to wait alone."

She looked a bit surprised at me and asks: "Are you sure? It could be a few hours before she comes. I wouldn't like to keep you from going somewhere else."

"That's ok. It's like a little Adventure for me to meet real Pokemon. And I think it's safer when I stay with you in case someone sees you and is not so 'collected' as I am."

She smiled, walked over to me and lightly licked my cheek. I looked a bit perplexed at this gesture and she chuckled a bit.

"Don't worry. That's just a way to say thank you for keeping me company."

I smiled and pet her on the head.

"Thank you too."

She seemed to like it and I continued for a while. We just sat there and watched over the Grand Canyon.

The sun was already setting as suddenly an earthquake shook the ground. Luna and I jumped to our feet/paws and took a few steps back from the edge. As we thought it was over, the ground broke between Luna and me and her side fell down. She cried out as she lost halt she fell with the ground.

I jumped forward and tried to grab her.

I got hold of one of her tails.

I stopped her fall and she just dangled there for a moment before she opened her eyes. She looked down with relief which switched to horror as she saw I was holding her by her tail.

"What are you doing!? Let go you idiot!" she screamed in my head. I winced but didn't let go.

"I will not let you die!" I screamed back with my real voice.

"But when you grab my tail...!"

"Yes, yes. I will get cursed. Could we talk about this after you are saved?" I interrupted her.

There was suddenly a pink ball floating towards us.

I looked up and saw the pink ball vanish. And instead there was a... pink cat? Oh wait. That's Mew!

Mew and I looked each other in the eyes. I looked with shock and she with curiosity.

"Um... hello?" I greeted her intelligently.

The Pink Fluffy Cat giggled and flew around me and seemed to examine me. She flew back in front of me, this time upside down.

"I think you will be a cute Pokemon." she said telepathically.

I blinked. I don't really understood what she said. But we had more important matters at hand. Literally.

"... Thanks? But I think we have in the moment more important problems. And it hangs on a 'tail' so to speak." I said, not bothering to answer in my head.

I looked back down and saw Luna looking with a scowl at Mew.

"Funny. But I would really like to go back home now."

_"Alright. Don't get a knot in your tail. Hihihi."_Giggled Mew.

Suddenly, there was another earthquake and now the part where I was lying on broke away. Luna and I fall both to the ground and screamed.

I saw Mews hands glow, then a blending light and everything went dark.
