�Go Nidoran!� Red called.
Sorry.
My name is Charmander.
I�m a Charmander (Duh).
My trainer is Pat.
His largest rival was Red.
So somehow we ran across him and had to battle.
I was called out against a mean-looking Nidoran Male.
�Charmander! Use your ember!!� Pat called.
I nodded. �Char!� I said. I span in circles. Bits of fire showered Nidoran.
�Dooorannnnn!� Nidoran yelped as fire landed on him.
�Nidoran! Fight back with a Poison Sting!� Red screamed.
Nidoran charged at me. I leaped to get out of the way but I was stabbed in the tail.
�CHAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!� I yelled.
�Charmander! Use Slash!� Pat ignored my scream.
�Chhharrrr.� I limped over and dug my nails into Nidoran�s horn. It cracked. Nidoran fell back, knocked out.
�We did it Charmander! We did it!� Pat was saying.
I looked at him. I felt dizzy. The poison was circulating through me. I fell back, also unconscious.
Pat was frowning. �You won but you lost, you good for nothing Charmander. You won�t even become Charmeleon!!�
He yelled. �I hate you!� He yelled again.
�STOP THAT!� Joy cried. �Out!� She shoved him out the door.
�Goodnight.� She said more politely. She turned off the light and closed the door.
�Ninetails.� A Pokemon beside me said. (It said: Sorry.)
�Char?� I asked. (Why?)
�Cubone bone bone!� Another Pokemon said. (Your master will abandon you like our Master did Ninetails and I.)
�Char! Charmander! Charmander Char Char!� I said. (Pat wouldn�t do that, would he?)
�Nine! Tails!� Ninetails said. (I�ll help you. Don�t worry.)
Chapter 3
(Charmander is fully healed and is battling LT. Surge)
�Raichu! Finish it with a thunder!� Lt. Surge commanded.
�Charrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!� I fainted.
This time, though, instead of going to a Pokemon center, Pat put me on a rock.
�You can�t win. You won�t evolve. I�m leaving you here.� He said.
I was to injured to reply.
Pat ran off.
Then it began to spit. My tail flame lowered half an inch.
It was pouring a few minuets later. My tail lowered down to 1 and 1 half inches.
I was too weak to call for help.
It began to rain harder. My flame was down to a Centimeter.
Many wild Pokemon fled the rainstorm.
Even a wild Pikachu ran off.
�Chhh!� I managed to say.
My life was a mess. I was ready to die.
My flame was 5 milimeters high only like this high! ( - - -)
4 millimeters. I was ready.
3 millimeters. I said goodbye to the world in my mind.
2 millimeters. I wished better luck for every body else.
The rain fell harder. My world flashed my mind. Raichu. Nidoran. Pat.
I lay flat, unable to move. Unable to close my eyes. My tail flame was 1 millimeter high.
Chapter 4
Sudden heat raced through me. My tail flame rose back to 4 inches.
�Ninetails!� Ninetails said. (You live!)
�Char!� I said. (Thank you!)
(Don�t mention it.) Ninetails said.
(But you saved me!) I said.
(I didn�t have a choise.) Ninetails replied.
With all my might I jumped of the rock.
(We�re weakened by rain. We better move.) I said.
(Yeah.) Ninetails said. Her tails were dragging behind her on the ground. They looked to heavy for her to hold up.
I lifted one of the tails up. It was heavy. Really heavy.
�Ash! Look!� Somebody called.
It was Misty, a gym leader I had battled.
�Ninetails?� Ninetails asked them.
�Char?� I asked.
�We had better get them to a Pokemon center.� Brock, another gym trainer I defeated said.
The Black hared boy lifted me of the ground. (They called him Ash.)
He threw his raincoat over me. I shivered.
�I�ve done this before, with my Charziard�� He said.
�Char!� I yelled.
�This Ninetails is in bad shape. It�s barely breathing.
We rushed into the center for Pokemon.
�Poor Ninetails. It probably won�t make it.� Joy said.
I curled up on Ash�s lap.
�Char!� I said.
He patted me. I whined.
�He�s worried about Ninetails.� Brock remarked.
�Me too. It�s in bad shape.� Misty said.
�Brock, will she make it? Ninetails?� Ash hugged me.
�Char!� I said.
The emergency room light flashed on. 5 Chanseys ran in.
Chapter 5
Many stressful hours later, Joy came out carrying Ninetails.
�It�ll be okay, but I can�t keep it here. One of you should take it.� Joy put the sleeping Ninetails infront of them.
�Misty found him!!� Brock said.
�You carried him, Brock!!� Ash said.
�You made sure it stayed alive!!� Misty said to Ash.
�It can be all of ours!� Misty said.
�Yeah!� Ash said.
Misty picked up Ninetails. She opened one eye.
�Ninetails.� Ninetails said.
�She doesn�t want to come.� Ash said.
�Char!?� I asked.
Ninetails stood up strait and I jumped on his back.
�We�ll see you around!� Misty said.
With Ninetails as my friend, I felt that nothing could hurt me. I yelled back at Ash, Misty and Brock.
(Thanks, but I think we�ll find the Perfect trainer for us! Maybe even better!) I waved. We walked out the door.
Yeah, there was no doubt, there were more adventures in store for Ninetails and I. But something was bothering me�
