Chapter 2
Aaron: It happened three days ago. It started out as a normal day. As you know, the Grass Clan lived in the Great Oak Forest beneath the Flying Clan.
Amidst the majestic Great Oaks is the Grass Clan’s home. They live in huts that are made out of Oak branches that are bound together with vines from a Venusaur. Aaron has brown hair, and a fair complexion. He is wearing a leaf-green colored t-shirt and brown pants. Like Thanasis, Aaron has the ability to talk to the Pokémon he takes care of, in other words, Grass Types. Aaron is sitting with and talking to a Venusaur, however, it’s not just any Venusaur. It’s a Venusaur that Aaron bonded with when he rescued it as a Bulbasaur when it was attacked by an angry Kadabra.
Aaron: Good morning Venusaur.
Venusaur: Good morning Aaron. This early morning sunshine sure feels good.
Aaron: Yeah. The Bellsprout are really enjoying this sun.
As Aaron and Venusaur are enjoying the sunny morning, a sudden Heat Wave hits.
Aaron: Venusaur, could you open your leaves wider and shade me from the sun?
Venusaur: No problem Aaron.
Venusaur’s leaves extend and cover Aaron but it isn’t long before they start to wilt in the intense heat.
Venusaur: This Heat is unatural. It shouldn’t be able to make my leaves wither.
Aaron: I think you’re right.
High in the sky are two men riding Charizards.
Scout: The Burial Grounds are right below us sir. There have also been reports that Thanasis makes his home here.
Leader: Good, good. This Heat Wave caused by these two Charizards should make the Grass Clan sluggish and it shall allow us to raid the tomb and kidnap Thanasis. Let’s begin. Charizard, use Flamethrower!
Back on the ground Aaron looks up just in time to see a Flamethrower hit his Clan’s huts and the surrounding forest.
Aaron: NOOOOOO!!!
Aaron runs toward the huts but it is too late, his entire Clan is dead. The two men land.
Leader (frowns): You’re not Thanasis. Who are you?
Aaron: I’m the leader of the Grass Clan that you just destroyed.
Leader: Oh. What a pity. I shall now take you hostage. (ties Aaron up) (to Scout) Kill that Venusaur as well Scout.
Scout: Yes sir. Charizard, use Blast Burn on Venusaur.
Aaron: NOOOOO! VENUSAUR RUN!!!!!!!!
Venusaur tries to escape but Charizard’s Blast Burn hits it directly and Venusaur is severely burned. It falls.
Aaron: (quietly)
NO!
Leader: Now, take us to the Burial Grounds.
Aaron: (shocked): What? Is that why you’re here? Just because of a legend?
Leader: It is no legend you fool. It’s our history.
Aaron: The Clan Wars are just a myth, just like the Charmander that died is a myth.
Leader: You’re no use to me right now. (to Scout) Scout! Take Aaron to the abandoned house and make sure his stay there is as unpleasant as possible.
As Aaron’s story comes to a close, Noel is in tears and Thanasis is shocked.
Aaron: That was the last I saw of the man who was called Leader. His Scout was the one who constantly tried to find out where you were, Thanasis.
Thanasis: Aaron, I’m so sorry. We must avenge your Clan and your Venusaur!
Noel: Aaron, you’ve been through so much in the past few days, come back with us to where our Clan is hidden so we can get you back to full health and formulate a strategy to retaliate against these foes.
Aaron: However can I thank you for saving me?
Thanasis: You do as Noel suggests and come with us.
Aaron: I will, but first there is something you should know.
Thanasis: What?
Aaron: The Leader was right. The Clan Wars are our history.
Noel: What do you mean?
Aaron: Hundreds of years ago, there were people who wanted to forsake Pokémon and started a Revolution against the Clans. The war was going well for the Revolutionaries until they found a Charmander and captured and killed it. The mother Charizard destroyed the forest and severely burned the leaders, our ancestors. The surviving members buried the Charmander in the remains of the Forest which, with the tender love and care of the remaining Clan members, would eventually redevelop into what we called the Great Oak Forest.
Noel: That still doesn’t explain why they were after Thanasis and looking for the Burial Grounds. What good would that do?
Aaron: There is another myth that states the Charmander’s coloring wasn’t normal. It says that the body was Golden.
Thanasis: A Golden Charmander? I understand why they are after me now.
Noel: Why?
Thanasis: It’s not safe here. You never know what Pokémon may be listening. We must get to our Clan now!
Aaron: Where is your Clan?
Thanasis: You’ll see.
As Thanasis, Noel, and Aaron are traveling to the Flying Clan’s temporary home in Zapdos’s Den, the Scout has discovered that Aaron is no longer entrapped in the abandoned house and is reporting back to his leader.
Scout: Leader!
Leader: What?
Scout: Aaron is gone.
Leader (icily): What do you mean Aaron is gone? He was chained to the floor.
Scout: Well…(looks down) It appears that someone found him and freed him.
Leader:
WHAT? Where were you?
Scout (cowering): I was looking for the Mankey that took my hat.
Leader: (to his guard): Guard, throw this Scout to the Machamp.
Scout (horrified) No! Not that! I’ll recapture Aaron sir!
Leader: You have two days.
Scout: Yes Sir.
The Scout departs.
Leader: I can’t believe that insolent Scout let my only advantage against Thanasis get away.
Many miles away, in a costal Clan, more trouble is brewing. As Water Clan Leader Alcovich is about to find out, two of his Clan’s fishermen are hungry for the Sacred Golden Magikarp. The Water Clan cares for all Water Types but they hold the Sacred Golden Magikarp in the highest esteem. It is illegal to even think about eating it. The Water Clan’s houses are made out of Elm limbs tied together with dried seaweed. Alcovich has brown hair and sea-green eyes. He has a long jagged scar above his right eye that he bears proudly because he obtained it when he bare handedly fought off a Rogue Kingler that was attacking his Clan. He is wearing a water-blue t-shirt and emerald colored shorts. He not only can communicate with Water Type Pokémon but he can breathe underwater as well. It is a gift that was bestowed on the members of the Water Clan by the Red Gyarados, after the first Water Clan Leader saved the Water Type Pokémon from the Electric Clan. Alcovich is swimming with his Staryu friend that he met when it had gotten stranded on the beach. Alcovich helped Staryu get back to the ocean and afterwards, Staryu came by every morning to swim with Alcovich. During the swim, Alcovich sees a Krabby, a school of Magikarp, and a lone Squirtle swim by.
Alcovich: This is a wonderful swim, isn’t it Staryu?
Staryu: Yes, it surely is.
Alcovich: Water Pokemon surely are amazing.
As Alcovich nears the end of his morning swim with Staryu, he sees Sandy, his blonde hair, blue-eyed girlfriend approaching for her morning swim with him. Sandy is wearing a seaweed green bikini. Alcovich surfaces to greet her.
Alcovich: Morning beautiful!
Sandy (blushes): Good morning handsome!
They briefly kiss.
Alcovich: There’s something I want to show you!
Sandy: Can I get a hint?
Alcovich (smiles): Nope! It’s a surprise.
Sandy: Ooh! I can’t wait!
Alcovich leads Sandy to a Coral Reef. The Coral Reef is beautiful. Surrounded by coral of every color you can imagine is a gigantic Cloyster. Alcovich motions for Sandy to come closer. As she does, Alcovich tells the Cloyster to open its mouth. It does and Alcovich reaches in and pulls out a huge Pink Pearl. He then motions to Sandy to surface.
Alcovich: This Pink Pearl is one of a kind. I want you to have it Sandy.
Sandy: (blushes) Oh Alcovich, I love it!
She kisses him. They then start to head home.They are about two miles from shore when Alcovich senses a tidal wave heading towards him. He signals for them to surface.
Alcovich: Sandy, get behind me.
Sandy: What’s wrong?
Alcovich: There’s a Tidal Wave heading towards us. I’m sending a distress call to Lapras.
Lapras appears and uses Protect on Alcovich and Sandy and Lapras’s Water Absorb absorbs most of the Tidal Wave.
Alcovich and Sandy: Thanks Lapras!
Lapras: You’re welcome!
Lapras departs and Alcovich and Sandy make it back home safely.
