Pokemon Fan-Fic

Mount Moon Evaluations.

"Hey there it is." Quin shouted. Shan and her friends had been walking for a long time when Quin had spotted the peek of Mount Moon. The sun was setting when they finally came to the base of the mountain. Standing outside of the cave entrance Shan looked up at the mountain in wonder.

"It’s beautiful," she said. Charmander chirped in agreement. "You two must have had a ruff hike when you came threw hear." Quin and Mark looked at Shan. Quin put a hand behind her head and smiled.

"Well actually. ." she laughed "we didn’t go threw mount moon." Shan smiled.

"Really. I thought that you had to go through Mount moon to get to Cerulean City. If you guys didn’t go through hear then how did you get to Luna City?"

"We took the train." Mark said. "You see Quin hear is afraid of the dark and at the time I thought it would be better if we took the train." Quins’ face turned red.

"Well at least I’m not afraid of escalators." Quin shouted causing Mark to turn red as well.

"I’m not afraid of escalators." He shouted. Shan sighed and looked at Charmander.

"They’re at it again." She said.

"Char."

"Yes you are." Quin said smiling. "Your afraid that your shoe lace will get caught and that you’ll fall down the escalator again." Shans eyes widened.

"You feel down an escalator." Mark blushed.

"Yea but it was along time ago." He glared at Quin.

"No it wasn’t." Quin said smiling. "It was last year."

"Shut up," Mark said shouting. "You have a big mouth Quin."

"I didn’t start it. You’re the one that told her that I was afraid of the dark." Shan began to laugh. Mark and Quin looked over at her. Charmander was rolling around on the ground laughing as well.

"What’s so funny?" Quin asked demandingly.

"Nothing," Shan said. "It’s just that you two don’t realize how alike you really are."

"WHAT?" They said looking at each other.

"Me like this dork," Quin said pointing at her cousin. "No way. I’m way to mature." She said and crossed her arms in front of her.

"I’m nothing like this brat Shan. She always acts like a little kid." Mark said and crossed his arms as well. The two cousins looked at each other and quickly dropped their hands.

"Dork," Quin said under her breath.

"Brat," Mark said.

"Hey," Shan said stepping forward. "Don’t fight. I know how about we head on into Mount moon and see if we can catch any rare pokemon. In my old hand book I read that Clefary are found at Mount Moon." Charmander jumped up from the ground and chirped.

"Ok," Mark said. "I’m sorry Quin. I didn’t mean to call you a brat."

"That’s ok," Quin said. "I’m sorry to. I didn’t mean to call you a stupid dork."

"That’s ok. Wait a minuet. You never called me a stupid. . "

"Hey lets get going." Quin laughed and ran into the cave. Mark ran after her.

"Hey wait just a minute Quin. I want to talk to you." Mark shouted. Shan sighed and looked down at Charmander.

"Lets go." Shan followed Quin and Mark into the cave. When they were inside they were shocked to see an automatic door blocking their way.

"What is this all about?" Shan said. Mark turned to look at her.

"We can’t get in till morning." He said pointing to a sign. It read :

"What?!" Shan shouted. Her voice echoed in the cave. "But I don’t get it. I mean the manual never. . " Shan slapped her forehead with her hand.

"What is it Shan?" Asked Quin.

"I forgot that my manual is an old one. Just a minuet let me get my new one out. Maybe it can explain the door." Shan took out her book. Kneeling down near Charmander Shan began to look for information on Mount Moon. Charmander lifted her tale closer to the book to better help Shan read,

"I found it." Shan said.

"Well what does it say." Said Mark.

"It says the Mount moon used to be a place were many different pokemon used to live." Shan looked down at the book and began to read.

"Mount moon is one of the best places to go if you are wanting to relax and have a vacation from training. Trainers can relax in the Hot Springs and shop in the many gift shops that are in the mountain. Mount Moon was made into a resort over ten years ago when it was declared that the pokemon that had once been living in the mountain had left or died out." Shan closed her book.

"Died out?" Quin said. "But how?" The three looked at the door.

"I think it was because someone wanted to make a buck Quin." Shan said angrily. Quin sighed. "Lets go and set up camp outside. We can go through hear tomorrow." She said flatly and waked out of the cave. Quin and Mark followed her and Charmander.

"Outside of the cave it was darker. Shan kicked a rock and watched it as it bounced in front of her. In school she had read about the history of Mount moon and had just assumed that there would be pokemon. It never occurred to her that it might not be true.

"It’s horrible." Quin said unrolling her sleeping bag. "All the pokemon are gone hear." Shan was siting off to the side leaning up against a tree. Charmander was playing with Rattata and Buterfree and Eevee were sleeping on Shan sleeping bag.

"I know Quin." Mark said poking the fire. "It’s almost unbelievable."

"What do you mean Mark?" Quin ask as she pored out some food for her pokemon.

"I mean that Mount Moon is huge." Mark clenched his fist and punched the ground hard. "Ahh, this really sucks. I wanted to study the pokemon at Mount Moon," Mark jumped up. "How can I do that if there are no pokemon to study!"

"Chill out Mark." Quin shouted. Her Farfetch'd jumped and ran behind her. "Now look what you did you scared Farfetch'd. Come on out boy it’s ok." Quin said picking up Farfetch'd.

"Sorry," Mark said siting down. Shan sighed and walked toward the mountain. Mark and Quin watched her leave and Charmander ran after her master. Shan walked to the mouth of the cave and looked at it. She knew that it couldn’t be true there had to be some pokemon left in the Mountain. Shan sighed.

"Charmander." Shan said looking down.

"Char," Charmander said.

"I know that there has to be pokemon hear." Charmander looked up at Shan and then back to the mountain. Shan closed her eyes. Suddenly a hand touched her shoulder. Shan grabbed the hand and threw its owner over her shoulder hard.

"Whoa."

"Oh no." Shan said running over to Mark. "I am so sorry Mark."

"Ow. Hey remind me never to do that again ok." He said standing up.

Shan narrowed her eyes. "Why in the world did you do that any way?" She said sternly.

"Calm down. Quin and I saw you walk away from camp and I thought something might be wrong." Mark said smiling. "So what’s up?"

Shan sighed. "I can’t believe that there are no pokemon hear. I just know that there has to be."

"Shan there aren’t any." He said. Shan looked over at Mark and smiled.

"Yes there are. You said yourself that the mountain is huge," Shan said closing her eyes and looking down. "So there for there has to be a few."

"Maybe your right." Mark looked up. "You know my dream is to be a famous pokemon scientist," he sighed. "Maybe if I can find a pokemon hear at mount moon I can get started on my dream." Shan and Mark stood for a moment just looking at the mountain.

"Lets go back Mark." Shan said and began to walk back to camp. Mark flowed her. Charmander ran ahead and jumped onto Rattata urging him to play.

"Were did you two go?" Quin demanded.

"Just for a walk." Shan said.

"Well I would have gone to you know." She frowned and looked down.

"Were you scared Quin?" Mark said smiling.

"No," she said glaring at Mark. "I was just worried that’s all. Shan looked over at her pokemon and walked over to them.

"Pokemon line up." Shan said. Rattata jumped to attention and stood in front of Shan. Charmander followed his example and stood next to him. Buterfree landed Next to Charmander. Shan looked down at her team and frowned. "Eevee," Shan said. Rattata looked to his right and back at Shan. Shan looked over and saw Eevee playing with Marks Squirtel.

"EEVEE." Shan said sternly. Eevee looked over at Shan and quickly took her place in line. Mark and Quin were watching with puzzled expressions.

"Ok team," Shan said. "It’s time to start training hard. Since it’s still early we are going to train."

"Shan what are you doing?" Quin asked. Shan looked over to Quin and smiled.

"I’m training my pokemon."

"What do you mean?" Mark asked setting down on his sleeping bag.

"Look I know that pokemon need to go threw battles to get stronger but I think that by training outside of battles will make there muscles stronger. They’ve all started to train in this way," Shan turned back to her pokemon. "I let them each take turns walking outside of their pokeballs to strengthen their legs."

"Hey that’s a great Idea." Mark said. "Mind if we watch." Quin smiled and moved over to were Mark was siting to get a better view.

"I don’t mind if you watch." Shan looked over her shoulder. "All I ask is that you don’t distract them."

"Humph," Quin folded her arms annoyed. Mark did the same. "Don’t worry we won’t."

"Good," Shan said flatly. "This training is important. She turned her attention back to her pokemon.

"Rattata, Charmander, Buterfree, Eevee," Shan put her hands on her waist. "Start jumping." Rattata began to jump high into the air. Charmander jumped but only could get a few inches off the ground. Butterfree was about to use his wings when Shan looked at him and shook her head. He began to jump and he to only could get a few inches off the ground. Eevee was jumping in sync with Rattata. Shan stood in front of them and began to jump as well.

"Shan what are you doing I thought you were training your pokemon not yourself." Mark said. Shan continued to jump and looked over her shoulder.

"I wouldn’t ask my Pokemon to do any thing that I wouldn’t do myself. And besides I think that if they see me doing it they might trust me even more."

Mark looked at Quin and leaned over. "She’s nuts." Quin smiled.

"I heard that Mark." Shan said smiling as she jumped. Mark and Quins eyes widened.

"Pokemon stop jumping." Shan said and landed. Her pokemon stopped. Rattata stood rigged. He never ceased to amaze her. Charmander was panting a bit but stood staring forward. Shan looked at her.

"Charmander keep jumping." Charmander started to jump again. Shan looked at Buterfree who was lying on the ground worn out. Shan smiled and helped him up. Eevee was also ling on the ground. Shan looked back over at Charmander and smiled.

"Ok girl," Shan smiled at her. "You can stop." Charmander stopped and panted.

Quin and Mark watched as Shan continued to train her pokemon, out of all of them she pushed Charmander the hardest.

"Ok guys stop running, except for you Charmander you and Rattata do a few more laps." Shan ran with them. Charmander slowed down a bit, and Shan encouraged her to keep going. "Come on girl I know you can do it." Mark and Quin watched and looked at there own pokemon.

"Mark do you think that what she’s doing will work."

"Yes," he said sighing.

"What’s wrong?" Quin asked.

"Shans really pushing them hard," he frowned. "And she’s pushing Charmander the hardest. I think she’s going a little far and I’m not sure how much longer I can let it go on." Quin widened her eyes.

"Mark," she frowned. "What exactly do you mean?"

"She’s being mean to them." Mark and Quin looked over to Shan.

"Ok Charmander you can stop running laps." Charmander stooped and laid down. "Come on girl it’s time for one more exercises.

"Hold it Shan!" Mark said standing up. Shan looked over at him with an annoyed expression.

"I thought that you weren’t going to interrupt us." Shan said. "Pokemon stretch out." She said and her pokemon began to arch their backs and stretch their legs.

"You’re being to hard on them Shan." Mark said walking up to her. Shan frowned.

"No I’m not," she looked at her pokemon. "I would never ever ask them to do something that I wouldn’t do myself." She looked at Mark. "Trust me I know what's best for them. I can’t just let them play all the time," she sighed. "By doing this training my pokemon and I will get ready for our next challenge."

Mark frowned. "Well then tell me Miss Pokemon knowitall," Shan frowned. "How come you are pushing Charmander so much harder, hu? She looks like she’s about to drop dead from exhaustion." Shan narrowed her eyes.

"She is not. I know what she can do," Shan said stepping forward. "I push her because she was my first pokemon. I expect her to set an example for the others by working hard. You need to really look at things Mark before you start jumping in." Mark narrowed his eyes.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I mean that you are just seeing how hard I’m pushing my pokemon, you’re not seeing how much this training is improving their abilities."

"I know exactly what I’m seeing." Mark yelled.

"And you want to be a scientist." Shan said frowning. "You should be taking notes Mark."

"On what?"

"Well for one thing by training together my pokemon are encroaching each other to do better. For instance Charmander go tired when she was doing laps and Rattata encouraged her to keep going by running besides her. And Buterfree he helped Eevee by cheering her on."

Mark became quiet. Shan turned her back to him. "You should really look at something closer Mark," Shan began to walk away, "before you judge. A scientist should look at things more closely." Mark turned and walked over to his sleeping bag and sat down with his back to the fire. Quin had been watching in silence. She knew that Marks heart was in the right place but she also knew that Shan was right.

Mark took out his Kuririn pokeball and stared at it. He wondered if Shan was doing the right thing. Closing his eyes he set the ball down and turned back to watch Shan.

"All right Guys one more exercise and we’ll be done for the night." Shan said smiling.

"Charmander," Charmander said and smiled.

"Now I what Eevee to team up with Buterfree and Rattata with Charmander." The pokemon walked to their partners. Eevee began to play with Buterfree. Shan looked over at Eevee.

"Eevee," Shan said giving her a stern look. Eevee smiled and stood still.

"Ok guys. Butterfree you attack Eevee and Eevee you defend. Charmander you attack Rattatata and Rattata you defend your self." Shan stepped between the two groups. "Ok guys this is a practice. I want you to control your attacks and don’t hit each other hard." The pokemon barked and Chirped in agreements.

"GO." Shan said and watched Eevee and Buterfree. Buterfree flew around Eevee and then headed right for her hitting her lightly. Eevee was startled a bit but not hurt.

"Eevee," Shan said. "I don’t what to see that again ok. I what you to get out of the way of Butterfrees attacks.

"Eevee," Eevee nodded and continued. Shan turned her attention to Rattata and Charmander. Charmander was swiping at Charmander with her scratch attack and Rattata was jumping out of the way of each swing.

"Come on Charmnader I know you can do this. Don’t just use scratch use your growl and leer to."

"Char," Charmander said and stared at Rattata. Her eyes began to glow a bright yellow and Rattata froze. Charmander ran forward and swiped at Rattata who snapped out of the leers effects and jumped out of the way.

"Charmander I want you to land your attacks. Rattata I don’t want you to get his so dodge. Shan sat down and watched after a few minuets she stood back up.

"Pokemon switch partners. Charmander and Eevee. Rattata and Buterfree. This time Eevee and Buterfree are attacking and you two defend." Shan said looking at Charmander and Rattata. Mark was watching more closely now and could see what Shan was really doing. He stood up and walked over to her. Quin turned to watch what he was doing.

"Shan," he said.

"Yes," she said not turning her eyes from Charmander. "Charmander don’t let any attacks get threw." She looked at Mark. "What’s up Mark?"

"I want to say I’m sorry. I just realized what you were talking about." Mark looked down at Shan. She was still watching her pokemon.

"Rattata I saw that," She said standing up. "Don’t go easy on Buterfree he’s tougher than he looks." Mark sighed and walked back over to Quin.

"I think she’s mad at me Quin."

"Duh," Quin said picking up her Staryu. "You should have kept that mouth of yours shut." Mark smiled.

"Well I’m sure that I can make things better." The two cousins looked at each other and then back at Shan.

"Ok pokemon stop." Shan said and stood up. Her pokemon were all panting heavily even Rattata showed some signs of being tired but unlike the others was standing at attention. "You all did great and I am proud of you all." Her pokemon jumped up and chirped and barked, happy to have pleased their master. "Now it’s time for you guys to eat and head off to bed." Shan walked over to her pack and gave her pokemon some food, which they ate quickly. When she sat down in front of the fire Shan looked at Mark and smiled.

"It’s no big deal Mark."

"What isn’t" Mark asked.

"You said you were sorry," She yawned. "It’s no big deal. I know that you were only concerned with the pokemons welfare."

"He shouldn’t have done that though." Quin said crossing her arms. "I mean he should have realized that you were training your pokemon so that they could go up against team rocket."

"No I’m not doing that Quin." Shan said taking a bite of sandwich she had packed.

"Then why are you training them so hard?" Quin asked. "I mean what’s the point of pushing them so hard if you aren’t going to use them to defend yourself against team rocket."

For a moment the three were silent. The wind blew feeding the fire and causing it to dance wildly casting shadows on their faces. Charmander, who had finished eating walked over to Shan and jumped in her lap. Shan looked up at Quin and smiled.

"Team rocket isn’t my main concern. I want to get to the pokemon league and become a pokemon master of fire pokemon." Charmander curled up in Shans lap and drifted off to sleep.

"What do you mean that team rocket isn’t your main concern. They’re after you aren’t they?" Quin said loudly.

"They just aren’t," Shan said sternly. "I can’t worry about them all the time Quin. If I do I would spend most of my time looking over my shoulder and that would be unfair to my pokemon. They have worked so hard and it’s up to me to help them to evolve and reach there potential." Rattata walked over to Shan and laid next to Charmander on her lap. Behind her Eevee and Buterfree were asleep on her sleeping bag.

"I have to say that you are certainly different." Quin said. "I mean first of all your not concerned about team rocket. . ."

"I didn’t say that Quin." Shan said. "I said that they weren’t my main concern."

"Ok then," Quin said frowning. She looked over at Mark. "What do you think Mark? I’m beginning to agree with you.

"I know why she pushes them hard." He said smiling. Quin threw her hands up in the air.

"What do you mean? A while ago you thought she was way to hard on them." Shan pet Rattata on the head and watched Quin as she crossed her arms.

"I mean she does it so that they will be ready for any future battles. She loves her pokemon," He said taking off his jacket. "That’s why she did most of the exercises with them. She knows what they are capable of and doesn’t ask them to do any thing that would hurt them."

"That’s right Quin," Shan said.

"Well ok then." Quin said laying back on her sleeping bag. "I’m going to sleep," Quin turned on her side and began to ignore Shan and Mark.

"Good night guys." Shan said. She carried Charmander and Rattata over to her sleeping bag. Shan fell asleep watching the fire. It danced in the wind causing the shadows to fall on her face she closed her eyes and fell into another dream.

Shan was standing at the base of Mount Moon. The stars were shining bright. She looked around. The trees were swaying in the wind causing some of their leaves to gently fall and swirl around her. Suddenly she heard saw something in the bushes and walked over to see what it was.

"Clefairy," it said and jumped out and landed in front of her. Shan stood staring at it.

"Hi little pokemon," she said. The Clefairy looked up at Shan and walked up to her. Raising its hand it pointed to a spot a few yards from the caves entrance.

"Clefairy, Clefairy." It said and bowed at Shan and ran off. Shan stood there for a moment astounded at what she had seen. Then as if on cue she woke just as her pokemon were waking. Shan set up and sighed,

"It seemed so real." She said and put her shoes and vest on. Shan stood up and stretched. Kuririn, marks Squirtle, was awake and staring angrily at Mark. Shan watched Kuririn wondering what was wrong.

"Squirtle," he said and blasted Mark with his water gun.

"IEEE," Mark yelled and jumped about five feet into the air. Quin set up quickly.

"What’s going on? Did something happen?" She asked. Turning to look at Mark she began to laugh loudly.

"Kuririn!" Mark yelled. "Why did you do that?"

"Squirtle Squirtle Squirt." Kuririn said angrily. Mark sighed.

"Ok fine I’ll feed you," Mark took out some food and fed him. "A simple tap on the shoulder would have woke me up you know."

"Squirtle," Kuririn said and began to eat.

"You guys," Shan said. "I think I know a way we can find some pokemon. After breakfast were going to look for another way into the mountain."

"Ok," Mark said unsurly. The three fed their pokemon and recalled them. This time Shan allowed Eevee to remain out. Packing up their gear they walked back to the cave when they got there they were surprised to see a line of people.

"Woo," Quin said. "Look at them all." Shan sighed.

"I guess we’ll have to wait in line."

"Ha don’t bother," said a voice from behind them. Shan clenched her fists and turned around.

"Drake," she said angrily.

"You know I thought it was you Shan." He said smiling. "Who is this guy?" He said pointing at Mark.

"My name is Mark and this is my cousin Quin." Mark said.

"I wasn’t talking to you." Drake said glaring at Mark. "So Shan did you get any pokemon yet. Or do you still only have a Charmander." Shan smiled.

"I have four pokemon Drake." She looked up at him.

"Only Four." He laughed.

"Hey back off," Mark said.

"Yea," said Quin.

"Looks like you have your own little fan club Shan."

"So Drake how many do you have?" Shan said. Behind her Mark and Quin were staring at Drake angrily.

"I have 4 to but I’m sure there better than yours." Drake said and smiled. Shan laughed.

"Don’t make me laugh Drake. I know that my pokemon are better." Shan turned and faced Mark and Quin. "Come on guys lets go."

"Hold it," Drake said. "You’ll never get threw Mount Moon."

"And why is that?" Quin asked angrily.

"Because it costs one hundred dollars just to get past the door." Mark and Quin looked at each other. "Shan you can’t fool me. You may have won some matches but I know that you can’t afford to go threw Mount Moon. On the other hand I can." He smiled.

"Well then I guess we’ll have to go another way then." Shan said with out turning.

"Well then I guess I’ll see you on the other side. When you get there I hope you’ll be ready to battle."

"I will be Drake." Shan said. Shan walked off towards the place were the Clefairy in her dream had pointed to. Mark and Quin were following.

"Hear we are," Shan said. "Last night I had a dream that showed me this spot on the mountain. I think that there might be a way in hear."

"You can’t go by dreams Shan." Mark said. Shan ignored him and walked over to were a bush was. Quin walked over to Shan and they both pulled on the bush.

"I mean dreams don’t have any relevance in real life they are just. . "

"Hey another cave," Quin said. "What were you saying Mark.

"Nothing." He said and followed his friends into the cave.

It wasn’t to dark in the cave and as they walked they began to notice small markings on the cave walls that seemed to be pointing to certain directions. Every turn they took led them to more and more markings.

"This is so cool," Mark said leaning down to look at the markings. "Theses markings must be an old kind of trail guide system."

"I just what to get out of hear." Quin said. "It’s spooky in hear." Shan laughed a bit and then suddenly stopped.

"Guys, look." Shan pointed at the wall of the cave.

"Wow," Mark said walking over to the cave. "Theses drawings kind of look like pokemon." Shan and Mark both were looking at the cave drawings and didn’t notice that Quin and Eevee had walked a head of them.

"AHHHH," Quin screamed. Shan and Mark both ran to find her.

"Quin are you ok." Mark said running to Quin. Eevee ran to Shan and leapt into her arms and tried to hide inside of her vest.

"Quin what’s wrong?" Shan asked. Quin looked up at Shan and then pointed over to the cave wall. Shan gasped when she looked. There in front of them was a skeleton.

"Oh man," Mark said. Quin jumped behind him. "I wonder why he’s down hear?"

"Hey look," Shan said walking over to the skeleton. "A book," Quin started to yell at Shan.

"Don’t touch it," she grabbed Staryus pokeball and released it. "It cold be something terrible."

"What could be so terrible about a book?" Shan said and picked up the book. "Hey this is weird." She said standing up.

"What is? I mean other than this guy is down hear?" Mark said still trying to calm down Quin.

"There are flowers near the skeleton," she took a step back. "But they look like they were just put hear."

"Um," Quin said. "Could we pleas leave this part of the cave?" Shan nodded and they walked still following the marks on the cave to yet another passage.

"This book might be able to tell us who that guy was," Shan said setting Eevee down. Eevee began to whimper and Shan recalled her.

"Why would you what to look in that thing," Quin cried out.

"Quin," Mark said sternly, "that guy could have a family some were that might be wondering where he went. Maybe that book will tell us something."

"That’s right," Shan said and opened the book and began to read aloud.

"June 5

Dear Journal,

Mark’s eyes widened. "Clefairy," he said aloud. "I wonder if that guy was a scientist."

"Could have been Mark," Shan said. "Maybe he was looking to see if there were any Clefairy left on Mount Moon." Shan turned the page and began to read again.

"June 20

Dear Journal,

I have seen them. The Clefairy are still living in Mount Moon. What amazes me the most is that they seem to have some sort of primitive society. Last night I followed one into the mountain and it led me to were a cavern was and a huge blue rock sat in the center of the cavern. The Clefairy were chanting and singing around the rock. I was about to leave when one of the Clefairy saw me and gestured to me to come forward. They welcomed me into their group without fear."

"Amazing," Mark said. Shan Read On.

"July 9

Dear Journal,

Today I was confronted with a choice. The lead director asked me to report my findings and I told him that I found nothing. I know what will happen if they find out about the Clefairy. Unfortunately they know I’m lying. I swear I will not let them hurt the Clefairy. I recently found out that one of our founders’ works for team Rocket. I plan on protecting the Clefairy and the Moon stone."

"That’s were it ends." Shan said looking up. "What’s a moon stone?" She asked.

"I don’t know," Quin said. "I never heard of it before." Mark lowered his head.

"I have," he sighed. "It’s a very rare stone that can induce evolutions in certain pokemon. Just like the other stones can but the Moon stone has mysterious powers and no scientist in history has ever had the chance to find out its secrets."

"Wow." Quin said. Shan sighed.

"I think that we should go back and pay our respects." Shan said. Quin’s eyes widened and she shook her head.

"No way. I’m not going back there were there’s a Skeleton. I’m staying right hear."

"Ok Quin," Shan said and began to walk back. Mark followed. Quin looked around and then ran after them.

"Wait for me." She said.

When they got back to the skeleton Shan, Mark, and Quin just stood staring at it in silence. "I wonder how this happened?" Mark said.

"Clefairy," a high pitched voice said they all jumped.

"Quin are you playing a joke?" Shan asked looking at Quin.

"No. It wasn’t me." Quin said. Mark looked at her.

"Come on Quin, it’s not funny."

"It wasn’t me mark honest." They all looked at eachother then back at the skeleton.

"Clefairy," the voice said again. The three looked at each other.

"It can’t be," Shan said turning. "But it is." Shan took off running towards the sound.

"Shan wait," Mark said and ran after her followed by Quin. Shan wasn’t listening to Mark all she wanted was to find a Clefairy.

"Shan wait," Mark and Quin called out in unison. Shan still ignored them. They soon came to a large cavern. Shan stopped running and turned in circles. There were cave drawings everywhere. Mark and Quin came up behind her and Mark was to say something when they heard the voice again.

"Clefairy Clefairy. Clefairy Clefairy." Shan turned to Mark and Quin.

"Guys look over there in the center of the cavern at that rock." Mark and Quin looked at Shan.

"Shan there’s nothing hear," he sighed. I know you think that there might be a Clefairy hear but there aren’t."

"Shh," Shan said putting her finger to her lips. "You’ll scar them." Mark looked at Shan as if she were crazy. Quin suddenly gasped.

"Look," she said pointing. Suddenly two small pink pokemon came out form behind the rock and walked forward. Shan smiled and did the same.

"Clefairy," one of the pokemon said. Shan knelt down and so did Mark and Quin.

"I can’t believe it." Quin said. "Two Clefairy," Quin took out a pokeball. "I’m going to catch one." Quin threw a pokeball and Shan caught it in midair.

"No Quin." She said turning to Quin.

"Shan why did you do that?" Quin demanded.

"You can’t Quin," Shan looked over her shoulder at the Clefairy. "They are the only ones left." Shan said sadly, suddenly her eyes flashed blue.

"Your eyes just flashed." Quin said stepping back. "Don’t hurt me," Quin jumped behind Mark. Shan looked at her with sad eyes.

"I’m not angry Quin it’s just that the Clefairy just want to be left in peace." Shan sighed. "You see last night I had a dream and in it I saw a Clefairy. The Clefairy pointed to the cave were we entered in." Shan laughed a bit.

"Clefairy," one of the Clefairy said. And taped Shan on her ankle. Shan looked down at it and smiled.

"Guys," Shan said. "The Clefairy need out help to do something."

"What do they need us to do?" Mark asked. Shan looked down at the Clefairy.

"I don’t know but I’m going to try to find out."

One of the Clefairy pointed to the Moon stone and then at Shan and the others. Shan took out her pokedex. "Lets see if my dex can tell us anything." Shan took out her pokedex and suddenly dropped it. Grabbing her head she fell to the ground. Mark and Quin ran to her. Shan looked up and they all saw that the moonstone was flashing. Shan stood up and walked over to it.

"I know," she looked down at the Clefairy. "I don’t know how I know but I know what you want us to do. Are you two sure you want this." The Clefairy looked at eachother and then nodded.

"Shan what’s going on?" Quin asked.

"They want us to help them to evolve."

"What!?" Mark shouted. The Clefairy looked at him and then back at eachother. "But how do you know?"

"Some how the Moon stone told me," she smiled. "Maybe because I’m psychic."

"Clefairy, Clefairy" the Clefairy said in unison. Shan picked up two rocks that were lying next to the Moonstone. They glowed in her hands.

"Hear you go guys," she handed the two stones to Quin and Mark.

"Why don’t you do it Shan?" Quin asked taking the stone.

"Yea," Mark said doing the same. "I mean why us?" Shan knelt down and pet one of the Clefairy.

"It’s what they want. I wish I knew how I knew why I know this stuff." She said and stood back up.

"How do we do it?" Quin asked.

"I guess you just touch the stone to there foreheads," Shan said rubbing her head.

The Clefairy walked over to Quin and Mark and lowered their heads. "Ok hear we go," Quin said. Quin and Mark touched the stones to the Clefairy heads. In a flash of light they slowly began to grow. Shan and the others covered their eyes.

"Clefable," the Clefable said. Shans eyes widened as she picked up her pokedex and pointed it at them.

"CLEFABLE: THIS POKEMON ARE VERY PROTECTIVE OF THIER OWN KIND AND TEROTROY. IT IS VERY RARLY SEEN BY PEPOPEL."

Shan shut her dex. "Wow," she said. The Clefable began to dance with one another and fly around in the air. Quin and Mark laughed and cheered for them. Shan watched but with sad eyes. She knew that they would leave the mountain in search of other Clefairy.

"Shan what’s wrong?" Mark asked. Shan looked at him and wiped a tear away from her face.

"There going to leave now," she said looking up at the Celfable. "You see I think there going to try to find others, and bring them back to Mount moon." Quin began to cry.

"Oh that is so brave," she said wiping her eyes. Shan looked at Quin.

"We should go," she said and walked past them. "They need to get started with their journey and we have to get going with ours." Quin and Mark watched her walk on.

"You know I think that we just saw something that we’ll never ever see again." Quin looked up and waved at the Clefairy.

"Your right Mark," she said and they left the cave. Shan and the others soon found their way out of Mount Moon. When they stepped out side the sun almost blinded them. Squinting her eyes Shan laughed.

"Guys look. We came out right near the exist." Shan ran down to the exist followed by Mark and Quin. "And Drake isn’t hear yet." She laughed.

"It’s about time you showed up Shan." Drake said stepping out from behind a tree. "We’ve been waiting for a long time you know." Shan narrowed her eyes.

"Don’t tell me that they followed you all the way threw the Mountain."

"Of course they did," he walked over to Shan and smiled. "Unlike you they know a real catch." Shan clenched her hands in to fists.

"Looks like they need to learn to throw the stupid once back." Mark and Quin laughed.

"Good one Shan," Quin said. Mark was laughing to when dream and her crew arrived.

"Drake are we going to go now," she wined. "We want to go to dinner. Oh it’s you Shan." Shan slid her foot forward and glared hard at Dream.

"Dream," she said. Mark and Quin stopped laughing. " You have some real nerve even talking to me after what you did." Dream laughed and walked away. "COWARD!" Shan shouted. Dream stopped short and turned to Shan.

"What did you just say to me?" She said walking back up to Shan.

"You heard me Dream, I called you a coward." Shan smiled. Mark stepped forward.

"Ladies come on now let’s not fight." Dream looked at Mark and smiled.

"Oh you finally got a boyfriend hu," Marks face turned red and so did Shans. Quin giggled.

"He’s my friend."

"Shan I challenge you to a pokemon battle." She took out her pokeball.

"I accept." Shan took out Eevees pokeball.

Dream raised her hands into the air and spun around gracefully and threw down the pokeball. "Go Pidgey." Dream said. Shan tossed down Eevee’s pokeball and Eevee popped out.

"Go Eevee." Drake’s mouth dropped.

"How in the world did you get an Eevee?" Shan smiled.

"That’s for me to know and you to find out." Dream smiled and looked at Drake.

"Oh Drake don’t worry about me," she looked back at Shan. "She probably hasn’t trained it."

"I'm not worried about you Dream." Drake said flatly. Shan smiled.

"Eevee sand-attack." Eevee ran forward and started to kick sand up at Dreams Pidgey.

"Pidgey, um use your gust attack." Dream said. Shan smiled and watched.

"Pidgey," the Pidgey said and flew up and began to flap its wings rapidly, a small whirlwind was sent out at Eevee who stood her ground. The small tornado passed Eevee leaving her unhurt.

"Eevee," Shan said pointing at the Pidgey. "Tackle it now."

"Eevee," she shouted and ran at the Pidgey, jumping high in the air she hit Pidgey hard causing it to fall to the ground.

"Oh no, Pidgey return." Dream said and recalled Pidgey. Drake stepped forward.

"My turn Shan." Dream smiled and hugged Drake.

"Oh your going to defend me," Drake frowned and pushed her away.

"I am going to battle because I know I can beat her not for any other reason." Dream frowned and walked over to her friends.

"That was kind of harsh Drake," Shan said smiling.

"Yea really," Mark said. "She seems to like you why were you so cold to her?" Mark asked. Quin stepped forward.

"If she likes him she’s nuts." Drake smiled.

"I don’t have time to deal with her silly crush. I have other things I need to take care of." Drake said looking at Shan.

"Ok then Let’s go," Drake said taking out a pokeball. "Go Paracet." As the pokeball fell to the ground a bug like pokemon appeared.

"Sheckt," it said.

"Ok then Drake." Shan said. "Eevee you’re up again quick attack combined with sand attack."

"Eevee," Eevee said and ran at the Paracet kicking up sand as she went. Eevee hit the Paracet hard causing it to fall back. Drake recalled it.

"Ok fine then I choose Spearow." A Spearow jumped out of the ball and hovered in the air.

"Eevee quick attack." Eevee ran forward and jumped at the Spearow who dogged.

"Spearow Peck it." Drake yelled. The Spearow flew at Eevee and began to peck at her face causing her to cry out in pain. Shan recalled her.

"Go Butterfree." Butterfree flew out and hovered near Shan. "Use your sleep powder."

"Free Free." He said and flew at the Spearow. A light blue powder began to come from Buterfrees wings and fell onto the Spearow who fell to the ground.

"No, Ok Shan it’s time to show you my brand new rare pokemon." Drake took out a purple pokeball. "Go Scyther." Shan watched as a huge green pokemon came from the pokeball.

"Scy," it said and stood in front of Buterfree.

"Scyther use your slash." Scyther jumped forward and with its huge pincers it swiped at Buterfree who fell to the ground.

"Buterfree oh no Return." Shan took out Rattatas pokeball.

"Ok Rattata goo!" Shan shouted. Rattata jumped out and growled.

"Oh man is this going to be easy. Scyther slash it and let’s get it over with." Scyther ran forward. Rattata just sat down and waited as it ran at him. Just before the Scyther struck at him Rattata jumped high over the Scythers head and landed with his back to it.

"Wow," Mark said. "Rattata did what you always do." Shan smiled.

"Rattata good job now you know what to do so do it." Rattata sat back down.

"Scyther slash it again and this time hit it." Scyther yelled and ran at Rattata again Rattata jumped over Scyther again and laded behind it again.

"NOW RATTATA!" Shan yelled Rattata arched his back and ran at the Scyther biting in on the throat and making it pass out.

"Return Scyther," Drake said. "Go Eevee." Drake shouted.

"Eevee," said his Eevee in a deep growl. Rattata stepped forward.

"Rattata."

"Eevee Eevee." They began to argue. Shan looked at Rattata who walked over to her and sat down.

"Ok Rattata," Shan said and recalled him.

"Why did you do that?" Asked Quin.

"Because Charmander would never forgive me if I didn’t let her fight this one." Shan released Charmander.

"Char," she growled. Eevee walked forward and smiled. Charmander did the same.

"Charmander Ember it now." Shan said. "Charmander began to spin and the rings of fire shot out at the Eevee. Drakes’ Eevee jumped out of the way and ran at Charmander who ran forward as well.

"Eevee tackle it now." Eevee hit Charmander causing her to fall back.

"Charmander it’s ok. Combine Ember and scratch." Charmander began to send out more fire and Eevee began to dodge again. Just as he jumped out of the way Charmander jumped high in the air and landed on Eevees back and began to scratch repeatedly. Eevee fell to the ground and fainted.

Drake recalled him and glared At Shan. Charmander sat down and panted heavily. "Until nest time Shan." He said and walked away.

"You did it," Quin shouted and ran forward and hugged her friend.

"Yea way to go." Mark said. Shan stood there staring at Charmander she was crying.

"What’s wrong Shan?" Quin asked. Shan smiled and wiped the tear form her eyes. "It’s Charmander. She’s evolving. Look." Shan pointed at Charmander who was glowing brightly. Shan quickly released all of her pokemon. Charmander began to grow and soon it was over.

"Charmeleon," she said and looked at Shan. Rattata looked at his friend and began to chirp loudly the others soon joined in. Shan knelt down and looked at Charmeleon.

"Charmeleon," Shan said. "Congratulations." Shan reached out and hugged Charmeleon close.

"Meleon." She said and hugged Shan back. Shan picked her up.

"Let’s go to Cerulean City guys." Shan said and Hoisted Charmelon up into her arms.

"Yes," Quin said. "I can’t wait to show you all of the sites."

"And I can’t wait to show you our Uncle’s pokemon lab." Mark said. Shan smiled.

"Then what are we waiting for lets go." Shan said and they all headed down the road to Cerulean with Charmeleon in Shans arms. Shan walked behind Quin and Mark and sighed to herself. Turning around she looked up at the mountain. Not only had the Celfabel and Charmander evolved but she had evolved herself. She set Charmelon down and they ran after Mark and Quin together.
