A Journey Into Darkness - Chapter One

by Winterr

Winterr When a mysterious sickness spreads, killing many Pokemon, a group of Pokemon find out that they're destined to defeat this darkness. Will Arrow, Arashi, Yami, Flare, and Spark be able to stop it in time? Or will they fail and let the Pokemon world down?
Gotta run, gotta run. Arrow sprinted through the forest, trampling small plants and flowers. I'm going to be late, I'm going to be late. She kept running, panting.
Suddenly something struck her. Why am I so stupid?! I can fly for Arceus's sake! Slowly, she spread her wings and leapt into the sky. Arrow flew until she spotted something down below. I bet that's them.
She flew down towards the group of Pokemon, landing safely on the ground. "Hey..guys.."
One of the Pokemon--a Deino--rolled his eyes. "Took you long enough, sheesh," He growled. The Deino stamped his foot, muttering something that sounded like "That better be the last of them."
A Popplio interjected, "Hey, don't be so rude." She was frowning. "I think we're all here now," She said, nodding to all of the Pokemon, as if counting them.
"Names everyone?" A Pichu suddenly said. He was holding a piece of paper.
When no one answered, Arrow spoke,
"My name is Arrow."
The Deino decided to speak after Arrow had. "The name's Yami." He let out a sigh, glancing at the other Pokemon.
"My name is, um, Flare," A Fennekin said, her ear twitching.
"I'm Arashi," The Popplio said.
"Seems like you are all the Pokemon. And my name is Spark," The Pichu finally said, looking down at the sheet of paper.
Arashi drew in a deep breath.
"That's a relief. We've been sitting here for almost two hours now. Let's go. Please. Now."
"And you said I'm rude."
"GUYS. SHUT UP. LET'S SEE WHAT SPARK HAS TO SAY."
"Since when was Spark in charge?"
"EVERYBODY. SHUT. YOUR. MOUTH. BEFORE I KILL YOU ALL."
Spark growled. "Let's go, before everyone kills each other. And for any of you wondering, we're gonna start on heading off to Riverside Cave." Before anyone could reply, he stood up and disappeared through some bushes.
Arrow hesitated for a moment, and then followed, glaring at the others. These Pokemon are who I'm traveling with? Oh, please have mercy, She thought, sighing.
The others fell in behind, all shooting glares at each other and arguing with their expressions. Arrow figured they all said, "SHUT UP. I HATE YOU. NEVER TALK TO ME AGAIN."
Arrow glanced up at the sky. She brushed some dust off her wing, turning back to the forest that they were traveling through. Welp. This is what I'm doing with my life. Why did I even sign up for this gig?
