Chapter 1: Dawn
#1 of Detective Lucario and the Specter of Mt. Pyre
My first story, so please, no flames... anyways this is a prologue to a story I'm going to write whether the public likes it or not! It's a Mystery Romance, involves anthro pokémon, the rest is in the story.
I'm staring at my beloved pokémon's limp body. My body hurts all over. I grow black and cerulean fur, beast-like ears, a tail, and a snout. Suddenly, I feel a burst of energy all around me, pain, sorrow, agony. "Make it stop. MAKE IT STOP," I think to myself, slamming my paws over my ears, pushing my new aura sensors aside as they vibrate like crazy.
I open my eyes, and my body jerks upright. "It was just a bad dream," I say to myself, my paws over my face. I look at the clock, and it reads 7 A.M. Four months, and that memory still plagues my sleep, yet wakes me up on time. I hop out of bed, walk to the kitchen, and pour myself a mugful of Moomoo Milk. "I need a distraction," I think, "something to calm myself down". I lazily drag myself into the living room, and plop myself onto the recliner. I steady my thoughts, the milk really helps for that, and focus on the auras outside of my house. I feel the heartbeats of the pokémon outside, thumping in such a beautiful melody. "Four months," I think again, sipping on my mug.
That was a day that changed the lives of everyone in Hoenn.
About four months ago, a crazy scientist wanted to strengthen the bond between pokémon and trainer, so he built a "Amicus Wave Emitter, or A.W.E. for short", using Mega Stones. The A.W.E. was intended to emit a wave of unknown energies that was supposed to foster friendship between trainers and the pokémon closest to them, kind of like a Soothe Bell. The result was unexpected, to say the least. Upon being affected by the blast, every trainer had the DNA of the pokémon that was literally the closest to him/her, fused to their own, and that pokémon then died.
At the time that the machine was activated, I was hunting down said scientist. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I was a detective, I had a partner,and my Lucario and his Buizel were out, helping us with the case. So, when we were hit, of course I fused with my Lucario, and my partner, named Tobias, fused with his Buizel.
Enough of that. I finish my milk, move to the kitchen, wash my mug, and prepare a meal for when I'm at work. I'm already dressed, so I just grab my bag, which I packed yesterday, and my Pokégear, and walk out. While I'm on my way, I get the phone and call Tobias. "Hey Toby! Good morning! Are you out of bed yet?" I ask. "I'm way ahead of you Fortus..." Oh yeah, where are my manners? Greetings! My name Is Fortus Ferrum. I'm the P.I. of Hoenn.
And I feel that my latest case is gonna be a wild one.
