The Shaymin Chronicles
Chapter One: Lost DreamsThe child rushed to his mom screaming “Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! ”
The mother jumped. “What is it dear?”
“I saw something!” he said excitedly.
“Well, what did it look like?” the mother asked half sarcastically thinking it was child nonsense.
“It looked…it looked…like…a…uh…” the child stuttered, it couldn’t get it out.
“Come on honey what did it look like?” the boys mother was becoming impatient.
Eyes glowing with pure innocence of a child, “Like a Shaymin!”
“Oh, nonsense Shaymin would never come here to Hearthrome.”
“But moommyy!!!” the glowing was gone.
“It’s true! It’s true! I saw it too!” the child’s best friend insisted it was true.
“Enough. It was probably a Nidoran or something.” The mother disliked the idea of her child gaining big hopes with pokemon. She wanted him to be a wealthy business owner
“But it had a flower an-” tears started trickling down the boy’s cheek.
“It tried to talk to us!” the boy’s friend would not give up.
“I said enough!”
“Humph.” The boy pouted in disappointment.
“Say bye to Max were going home” The mother got up to leave.
“……..Bye Max…..” the boy said bye to Max, his lifelong friend.
“See ya later Doka” Max waved to Doka as he walked away….
“That was many Years ago.” Doka murmured looking blankly at the ceiling.
“But Doka me and you both saw that Shaymin. I don’t know about you but I won’t stop looking for that Shaymin. I believe its still out there.” Max cried out.
“It’s not! Shaymin isn’t real! My mom was right. It was just a Nidoran.” Doka was getting angry.
“You and I both know that’s a Lie!” Max never gave up something he believed in. He wasn’t about to stop now.
“Max, do you honestly believe we saw a Shaymin?!” Doka started pacing in anger. Max knew he only paced when he was frustrated and nervous.
“Yes, and if you can’t see that, then I am leaving….” Max turned around and headed for the door.
“………Max, wait……..” Doka Stopped and walked towards Max.
“What?!” Hand on the doorknob, Max wasn’t gonna take any crap.
“I…can see that…but we’re adults now…. I have a steady job and I don’t wanna lose that for some dream that might not even be real…” Doka’s voice cracked. He looked at his feet.
“Please Doka….. I have only asked you for one thing in the past and that was for us to be best friends….” He let go of the doorknob.
“And I did that….we are best friends” Doka’s voice was fading.
“Well, if you wanna keep it that way please just trust me. Shaymin is out there. I know it, and I wanna find it. I felt a close connection with it. But when your mom called us it left. I have wanted to find it ever since….” Max turned away and flashed back to playing with Shaymin.
“……..I got to think about this….” Doka swung the door open.
“Where are you going?” Max asked as Doka walked out.
“To the chapel……..” And Doka was gone.
Chapter Two: The Decision“Doka?” Max whispered searching for Doka in the chapel.
“…Max…” Doka answered not moving.
“Doka, will you come with me to search for Shaymin?” Max walked toward Doka.
“….I don’t know….This is a hard choice to make….” Doka kept his eyes closed.
“….Doka, please!” Max’s voice grew to his outside voice, others looked at him unappreciatively.
“…I don’t know Max….I just need some time alone…Can you just give me that?” Doka opened his eyes and looked at Max inquiringly.
“Of course…” Max murmured and went home.
Later
Doka pulls out his pokéGEAR and calls Max.
“…Hello?” Max answered.
Doka bluntly stated “Yes.”
“What?” Max was confused.
“I said yes.”
“!”Max was speechless.
“I am gonna join you but I gotta train my pokemon.” Max’s voice wandered.
“Meet me in front of the Pokemon Fan Club.” Max grabbed 3 pokeballs and ran out the door.
“Okay.” He was about to hang up his phone.
“And bring your Pokemon.” Max added quickly.
“Bye.” Doka was not far from the Pokemon Fan Club so he walked a little slower than usual.
“Max!” Doka saw Max turn the corner and called him over.
“Oh, Doka you’re here.”
“May I ask why?” Max never told Doka why he was coming.
“Walk with me…” Max started heading for the rest stop before route 214.
“Sooo…” Doka was trying to put things together.
“Me and you…” Max said puzzling Doka.
“What about us?” Doka was searching for an answer.
“…We are….” Doka wanted some answers but was still very confused.
“We are what?!” Doka finally said unable to stay quiet any longer.
“Gonna battle…” Max finally answered Doka’s question.
“What?”
“Both of us, our Pokemon need the training.” Max wanted to battle, and when he wanted something he always got it.
“Right now?” Doka was surprised about this request
“It’s now or never.”
“Right. Let’s Battle. Go! Staraptor!”
“Go! Houndoom!”
“Staraptor, Brave Bird!”
“Houndoom, Feint Attack!”
Starrr!!!!!!!
Hounndddd!!!!
“!”
“!”
Both gasped in the other pokemon’s determination.
“Houndoom, Crunch.”
“Staraptor, Fly then go into Aerial Ace!”
“Houndoom, Quick! Destiny bond!”
Hound.
Starrrrrraaptor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Staraptor, Return. You were excellent. Get some rest.”
“Houndoom, Return. Great job!”
“Go Pupitar!”
“Doka, here’s my secret weapon!”
Pupi, Pupii!
“Porygon-Z! Go!”
Porr. Pory!
“Porygon-Z Tri Attack!!”
“Pupitar, Dig! Fast!”
“Porygon-Z Signal Beam!”
Pupiii!
“Pupitar! Why didn’t you dig?”
Pupi….
“Porygon-Z use Giga Impact!!!”
Por….Por……Porygon!!!!!!!!
Pupi!
“Pupi! Return. Huh?”
“I think Pupitar is gonna evolve…”
“Max, You think so?” Doka never thought the day would actually come.
“Of course, you treat that thing like a baby. I am surprised it hasn’t evolved already.”
Pupi!Pupi!Pppuuuuuppppppiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!Tyranitar!
“Awesome! Tyranitar, Return.”
Ty-Tyran-Ranitar!
“Huh?”
TYRANITAR!
“! Hyper Beam?!”
Porrrrry!
“Porygon-Z Return.”
“Yea!”
“Doka, You win.” Max was sweating and looked weak.
“?”
“My Pokemon, they aren’t strong enough.”
“Are you sure?” Doka didn’t know what was going on.
“Positive. Let’s go get ready for our ‘adventure’.” They went home to pack. They were to meet in front of the pokemon center at dawn.
Chapter Three: Packing“Whew.”
Doka looked nervously at his front door. He was nervous about what his wife might say. She never really approved of pokemon. She had been very irrational with talk of pokemon in the house. He thought nothing of it and walked through the door.
“Honey! I’m home…Honey are you here?” He looked around. Not in the kitchen, not in the bedroom, not in the bathroom, not in the den. Where could she be? Then he felt a sudden chill. She was in the dining room.
“Hello honey what are you doing here in the dark?”
“….Do you…have…any idea…..what time it is?!”
“Umm, its 9:15 why?” he was scared.
“We…we’re…….supposed to have…dinner at 7 O’CLOCK!”
“Sorry I was out with Max. Speaking of Max, me and him want to go on a umm road trip.”
“A….road….trip? ...It better not be for some STUPID LITTLE POKEMON!!” She threw the table towards him and plates fell. She got up and stared behind Doka for a second, winked and slapped him across the face. He put his hand around his cheek. Then he remembered the wink. While his wife was throwing things around he looked back. Then everything froze. She stopped and realizing he had turned around and saw her secret she clawed at his back. Even though the damage was done she wouldn’t stop. He flipped over to look at her. A single tear dripped down his hand-printed cheek and he slapped her. The door slammed. She had been cheating on him. She fell on the floor crying and Doka picked her up and threw her on the porch. She was kicking and screaming. She clawed at the door for about 5 minutes. She stopped and pulled the ring off her finger. Their marriage was over. A car pulled up in the driveway and picked up Doka’s Ex-Wife.
Doka drank a can of beer, took a quick shower then called Max.
“Max, Max are you there?”
“Yea I am here you sound upset, what’s wrong?”
“…………………………….”
“Doka! Doka! What happened?!”
“…………………………….”
“Doka! Answer me please!”
“………..she………..cheated on me…………..”
“I am coming over.”
Doka left the phone to his ear for quite a while. Then he collapsed. He couldn’t believe his wife cheated on him. Max opened the door and patted his back. This was awful.
“Max………”
“Doka are you all right?”
“No Max….My wife was cheating on me. She will probably file for divorce and abuse. I slapped her and threw her out. I would have done more but I couldn’t move. I was so scared.”
“Doka you don’t have to go with me to find Shaymin.”
“No I want to. When I come back my house will probably be gone and most of my stuff ruined. I don’t wanna come back to that. I want to live with Shaymin. It will probably be my only joy.”
“All right then….let’s get you ready.”
They started packing Doka’s stuff. Throughout the whole time they did not say a word. Nothing needed to be said.
Chapter Four: An Unmatched BondAfter a couple of days of figuring things out Max decided he and his wife would move to where Shaymin lived. Doka would follow along. Max’s wife was going to be getting everything ready and packed up at both Max’s and Doka’s house. They were gonna go find Shaymin. Max and Doka packed for a long journey because they knew it wasn’t gonna be easy.
“Okay Doka we are almost ready to leave. You think we are forgetting anything?”
“Hmm………...
Froslass………” Doka had been very quiet the last few days and was hardly even noticeable. But when he said Froslass his heart felt like a bullet punctured his heart.
“I’ll take you to Solaceon town. We can stop by at the moo-moo milk diner.”
“…….”
“Right.” Max knew what Doka was going through but he was getting kind of tired of it. He wanted his old friend back. Doka was always happy. But nothing would bring even the slightest smile to his face. He hoped being reunited with his best friend would bring his spirits back. They finally arrived in Solaceon town and there was a slight drizzle. As soon as they arrived within eye’s view of the day care the old woman in charge came running towards Doka and Max.
“Oh, good! I was just about to call you. I am so sorry sir but your Froslass is very ill. Even Nurse Joy is stumped. We were hoping you would know.”
“Um, excuse me miss when did this happen?” Max had a hunch.
“Oh, about four night ago.”
“Thank you. We’ll take froslass. Here is 1000 PokeDollars.” Max was right. Froslass’s illness started on the same day Doka found out about his wife. This obviously meant their bond was beyond compare. Doka needed to forget this. No. It is too much to ask him so soon.
“froslass………………..”
Fros……….lassss.
“no…….NO! FROSLASS!!”
“Doka! There is only one way to fix this! You have to forget about her. She played you but you are hurting Froslass! She will die if you don’t let it go!”
It was raining now. Hard.
“FROSLASS! WAKE UP PLEASE! YOU CAN’T LEAVE ME!! PLEASE FROSLASS!!!! please…….”
Let Her Go...“OKAY! I WILL LET HER GO! PLEASE LIVE!!!!!”
It is done. I must rest. Take me to the pokemon center…“MAX! TAKE US TO THE POKEMON CENTER! FAST!”
Doka jumped into the back of the pickup cradling froslass like nothing else in the world mattered….
“Here you are, Froslass should make a safe recovery. You are welcome to spend the night.”
“Thank you. We really appreciate it.”
“…….thanks….”
“Doka I’ll be back, I gotta pick up something.”
“….”
Doka walked blankly over to Froslass’s room. He went inside. Nurse Joy walked past and saw him.
“umm excuse me sir, but you can’t stay here, visiting hours are over.”
“Please let me stay here, this froslass is the only thing that keeps me from taking my life every day. I just found out my wife cheated on me, my froslass almost died because of me and now I have to watch it struggle with nightmares……. Please…”
“Sorry sir, you are welcome to stay here.”
Doka soon fell asleep watching Froslass toss and turn…
Don’t worry master. I am fine. Your friend is here.Max looked through the window and saw Doka. He was embracing froslass and just as Max was going to walk away he saw something he hadn’t seen for a long time. Doka was smiling. He left the moo-moo milk on the counter and went to his room.
Master I am glad we are friends.
