In the middle of the woods were five Pokemon friends walking along as they conversed on what they had been up too. One of the Pokemon, an Eevee was in the middle of them. He was the normal coloring for an Eevee but, he had dark and light wristbands around his forelegs. He was a very excitable and happy Pokemon compared to his friends. This little Eevee goes by the name of Josh and is always willing to put his life on line and defend his friends.He is also quite shy, even with his happiness.
The Pokemon beside Josh on his left is a Leafeon. A different coloration of the leaf like tail, ears and little pieces of fur that formed that way were not a usual green but a light orange at the tips and as it goes down the leafy parts gets darker from a normal orange to a crispy red like the autumn leaves. His normal fur dilation is tan and he wears glasses. His name is Matt.
Right next to Leafeon was an Empoleon who stood about 5'5, making him shorter than most of his species. The only other real difference is the metal rims around his fins, which were instead of a normal blue were white. His name is Darren.
To the other side of Josh is a Houndoom and a Squirtle. The Houndoom had headphones around his neck and unlike the others had a little holster that connected to a strap that went around his black fur body. The headphones were connect into a iPhone which was in the holster. The one true difference that made this Houndoom unique was the form of a cookie tattoo on his chest. The Houndoom also had a dog tag around his neck that had his name on it.. The Squirtle on the other hand is more of a tough and built friend.His skin color is a little lighter than a normal Squirtle. He is very good when it comes to electronics and vehicles. Houndoom's name is Xavier while the Squirtle's is Eric.
Josh smiled. " Isn't this fun guys?"
Eric nodded and walked with his hands behind his head. "Yeah it's just like old times. Can't really hang out much now with each of us working."
"True that, I mean I got my job working with animals which is surprising they haven't changed into another form like we did into Pokemon. Then you got Xavier with his famous cookie factory, still wondering what his secret ingredient is for those. You got Darren with his Japanese business and Eric with his automobile repair shop. Josh it's kind of strange you are the only one without a job." Matt stated.
"I just don't want one, the world may be in peace but we still have to deal with same working system." Josh looked over to Matt.
Eric rolled his eyes, thinking Josh was crazy. Xavier just snickered.
Darren quickly changed the topic. "So we are heading to the normal camping ground huh?"
Josh nodded "Yeah. Arceus said something about us meeting him there for some reason. he didn't give me much details."
"So God told you huh?" Eric asked.
"Tch...so this will be the first time we see the all powerful one Pokemon god. Ya know I think he is a coward, can't even show himself to are little Eevee when it comes to communication. He has to be a bitch and send his message through mental waves." Xavier sneered.
"Xavier?!" Matt glared at the rude Houndoom.
"What? From what I understand he is just being cowardice but then again what does a simple dog like me know right Matty?" He laughed.
Josh rolled his eyes at the rhetorical question, while Darren and Eric laughed. Matt shook his head with a sigh.
The group continued their trek through the woods till they came to a clearing with logs around a fire pit. They went to go sit down on the four logs that were around the pit. Sitting for at least a few minutes, in silence as they waited for their ruler to arrive. Xavier had put his headphones on while the others start to talk once more out of boredom,
"What's taking him so long?" Darren complained.
"Well it is Arceus, so must he be taking care of a few matters." Josh defended.
As the sun went down, indicating that it was now late evening, the five Pokemon were now sitting around a campfire while roasting some fish on a stick over it. Thanks to their buddy Houndoom they were able to be warm and thanks to Darren and Eric for going to the nearby lake for catching the fish, they were able to solve their hunger and coldness problem. A few more went by and as they continued to wait. Unaware of red eyes watching them.
Josh sighed out of disappointment. " Guess he ain't showing up guys. So we should get some rest for tomorrow an...."
Eevee was cut off from a unknown voice. "There will be need for sleeping my young warriors."
They all turned there attention to the red eyes in the darkness of the trees. The figure stepped forward revealing is form. It has white colored body, gray underside, a long mane, gold hooves, green eyes with red pupils, and has a large, golden wheel around its abdomen, connected by spikes filled with gems. "I am sorry, for keeping you all waiting for so long. Just needed to take care of few matters." Its voice sounded deep and toned.
"Arceus?" Matt raised a brow.
The creator nodded. "I am indeed the god Arceus, Mathew. I again apologize for my tardiness."
"Oh its good you showed up. Now what was it you wanted to talk to us about?" Josh asked curiously.
"I wanted you all here, so I can personally thank you all for your hard work during the war times. You prevented a lot of Pokemon from dying and from ruining this world I created. Also there is one more reason I summoned you here, it is also so I can say goodbye to you as well." Arceus stated.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa what in the hell do you mean by 'goodbye'?" Xavier narrowed his eyes.
"Just as it means, Houndoom." the god Pokemon chuckled and the a white light sparked from the fire engulfing the five friends quickly before they could react.
The light died down and they were all gone. Arceus just laughed, "I can't wait to see how you all react to your new environment. This should be an amusing little venture on my warriors."
"So I take it you sent them to the PonyVille correct?" A voice came from behind him, a soft feminine voice.
He looked back to see a white coated alicorn her long mane and tail flowing naturally as she wore royal garments and a crown upon her head. Arceus nodded to her. "Indeed they are in PonyVille, but they are scattered through out that little town. I still do not know why you require their assistance Celestia."
The alicorn gave the god of Pokemon smile. " In due time Arceus, I will reveal my intentions to you. But in the meantime we should keep a eye on those 'warriors' of yours, just in case one of them overreacts."
"Yes indeed let us head back to your world. Besides it will be nice to your sister again seeing how the last time I saw her was over a thousand years ago." He chuckled and a flash of light engulfed the two and they were gone.
Matt opened his eyes as a bright shining ray of sunlight his his face. He groaned out of annoyance, "Stupid sunlight shining, I was having a somewhat good dream." He muttered moving around, a ruffling sound was made with each movement, and the smell of apples surged around him.
Leafeon looked around as his vision, started getting more clear. He is eye went wide as he saw leaves and a few apples all around him. He looked down to see the branch he was on. 'An apple tree? How in the hell did get in a apple tree?' He thought to himself.
The memories of what happened with him and his friends started to flood back in his mind. 'That damned god. Where on earth did he send us?' Matt smacked an apple with his paw out of annoyance. At that moment he heard a voice and not to long after that, a great force hit the tree making it shake. Matt lost his footing and fell along with some apples.
"What in tarnations?" spoke a southern feminine voice. Followed by a "Oof"
Matt felt himself land on something soft as his jaw on the other hand hit the ground. He rubbed his muzzle as the person underneath him grumbled. Realizing he was on someone, he quickly got off the person. "I'm so sorry" he apologized remember hearing its voice from earlier, and knew it was female. "Miss I hope I didn't hurt you?"
He turned to face her and stared with curious eyes. The female got up to her hooves, shaking her head. She was a orange coated pony with a blonde mane and tail, freckles on her face and a stetson hat on her head. "Ah it's fine, it takes a little more than somepony falling on top of me to do any harm." She turned her head to meet the Pokemon's gaze. A few seconds passed of complete silence till Matt decided to break it.
"Um.....hello...You are a pony? A pony that can talk?" he questioned.
She nodded in response. "Pardon me, mind telling me what ya are?"
"Oh yes, of course." Matt cleared his throat. "I am a Pokemon. My name is Matt."
"Ah Poke what? What exactly is that? And my name is Applejack"
"Well a Pokemon is a creature that is split into many different species over at least 700 from what I have seen. We are usually based off of some animal of object and with these strange looks, comes power that is used manly for defense. The type of Pokemon I am is a Leafeon. I can basically use the power of plants. So we are pretty dangerous when we want to be." He explained proudly.
"So yer saying that ya are a dangerous critter?" She held in a giggle. "Pardon me but ya look more cute than dangerous."
Matt narrowed his eyes as a light blush crossed his face. "I am gonna ignore that comment. Now that I have answered your question, I need mine answered, where am I exactly?"
"Yer at Sweet Apple Acres. My family's farm. We sell are apples ya see." She pointed her hoof toward the trees all around Which Matt finally noticed were everywhere, thinking how long it must have taken to get these all down to sell. " I was down right in the middle bucking all the apples out of these trees."
"Hmm interesting...Is it just you here?"
Applejack shook her head. "Nope, I live here with my grandmother Granny Smith, my big brother Big Macintosh , my little sister Apple Bloom."
"So just a farm with a bunch of apple trees around here?"
"Actually there is a town not to far from here called Ponyville where I do most of the selling. All my friends live there, except Fluttershy who lives a little ways the other direction close to the Everfree Forest."
Matt's eyes went up as the realization of his missing friends hit him like a sack of bricks "Crap!" He looked around frantically. "Damn it, how could I forget about my friends this is not good....."
Applejack tilted her head. "So you arrived here with friends?"
Matt stopped for second. "Well not exactly in this location. From what I remember, me and my friends were waiting around at our campsite for our deity to show up, once he did, a blinding light came from the fire after he said goodbye to us and engulfed me and them up. After that I woke up in your tree."
Took Applejack a few seconds to register what the Pokemon had told her. 'So he was transported here by someone, along with his friends. Who I reckon are most likely in Ponyville if anything. I will help him find them, after all I don't know what I would do if me and my friends ended separated in a unknown place' She thought to herself. "Alright little critt.... I mean Matt, I will help ya find your friends."
Matt looked at her with joy. "Really? Oh thank you so much."
She smiled and nodded. "We can check Ponyville and also get some help with searching for them."
He quickly hugged her out of joy and ran off out towards the gate to the white wooden fence that led off the farm, stopping out on the path. He noticed exactly how big her family's land was and stared in awe. The wide open field that was between the house and the apple trees and the barn.
She stood there with a blush before shaking her head and trotting out of the trees and towards the gate. She thought she should tell Big Mac exactly where she was going before she took Matt into town. She quickly galloped to the barn and went inside.There in the middle of the barn was a bulky red stallion with a yoke around his neck, with a book in his hooves. He looked up at Applejack.
"Big Mac, I am gonna take somepony into to town, to help him find his friends. So can ya take over the apple buckin for today?"
"Eeyup" He responded.
She quickly thanked her big brother and ran out of the barn back to where Matt was waiting. "All right, let's get going." She trotted ahead of him past the fence and down the path to town. He followed behind her noticing the 3 apples on both her flanks. He shook his head and walked up along side her, getting his thoughts back on the task at hand. 'Alright guys, I will find you, hopefully your all still okay.'
