Well another attempt at a story series. I wanted to try this. A sotry idea I always had figure it would be fun to do this.

Jeff is your average. Yet he has been through a lot. He will be put through more than he ever realized.

Disclaimer: I do not own pokemon. They are property of Nintendo / Game Freak

Also I had to edit this myself so if there are errors I am sorry but I am not that great at finding all the mistakes I make.

Enjoy the story.

My name is Jeff I am eighteen years old today and I am sitting on the docks watching the ships roll in for the evening . I can hear the dock workers talk about a storm rolling in. I get the looks from some and others giving me a look of sympathy. Yet I don’t hate them for it . It is a certain pokemon I hate.

I hate ninetales.

Before you hate me you have to understand where I hatred comes from. I live in the outskirts of Johto going towards Kanto. It is a fishing town which it’s main source income is… wait for it fish.

Yes I sound bitter but not towards the village hell I love the whole fishing aspect of the town it is because of that many of the trainers are water type trainers or electric type trainers. Hell I am not a trainer I love fishing and I have learned so much from the fisherman here.

Yet if you get lucky you can have a ninetales or vulpix as starter . The village was founded by the great hero. His name was never found out but he had his loyal ninetales and two of the legendary dogs followed him , Raikou, and Suicune. They help him fight back the bandits that threaten the settlement here over a hundred years ago. He and his pokemon help found this village.

The ninetales have become the scared pokemon of this village. Any trainer is allowed to ask to have one accompany them from the town but they must come during the celebration. Held once every year. It is up to the ninetales or vulpix to chose said trainer. Many have tried and few have been allowed to get the fire fox to join them.

Now you would think being from this town would help your chances to get one. Wrong the ninetails chose not people, why some even from here fail to get one.

At the time I actually didn’t care I was twelve at the time I was allowed to start my journey. I wanted to go when I was ten to be a trainer but my parents wanted me to get some skills before I left for my journey. I didn't see a problem with that. At least this way I could go longer on my journey with the knowledge of cooking and other survival skill.

Now the ninetales here are very domesticated compared to many wild pokemon. Not they lived with us but along side us. They still lived within the forest but they live peacefully among the people of the village. The law of the land is you are not allowed to trap hunt harm or capture any ninetails under penalty of law. It actually included jail time and suspension or trainers license depending on the severity of the crime .

Small wonder why they’re close , last count I heard forty or fifty living near the village. They protect us as we protect them.

Now as I said before I was going to be a trainer . I actually didn't want one of the fire type canine. I had wanted a buizel as a starter. Nothing against the fire pokemon, but I always thought a charizard or typhlosion was way cooler.

I was a kid I didn't understand all this type thing or abilities I went on how something looked.

Yet it was that time again. Many trainers showed up to try but over the years the village mayor had started to make said trainers compete for the chance to be selected. Some loved it as if to show off their skills to the ninetales.

Those of from the village who were starting on their journey were exempt from the tournament. They allowed the fire fox to chose them. .

I didn't want one but my parents wanted me to try at the time I didn't have that hatred I have now. So as with others who stood before them we all waited to see who was chosen. The winners of the tournament and the few children starting their journey were being chosen. None approached me. That wasn’t the bad thing as some were never chosen even though they lived with them here. Not even a vulpix. I stood there a bit embarrassed by this.

Yet what happen next is what made it worst.

The ninetales and vulpixs turned there backs on me. As if to say I was not worthy. This truly upset me I started to cry at this as it had never happen to anyone of the village before. I left with my parents as they tried to console me. The next day I got over it as I figure I could call to the other town over and try to reserve a starter pokemon. Hell I wanted a water type just so I could beat down on a ninetails for what happen to me. Yet I could not get any. It seem word spread fast about what happen many rumors began to spread saying I was a cursed child. Many who were my friends stop hanging around with me as their parents told them not to.

It hurt as I was isolated from everyone. I tried to get a wild pokemon to capture so I could start a team hell I would take a ratta yet I could not even find one. Not one wild pokemon was around when I looked for them.

What made it worst it seem the ninetales started to keep pokemon away from me. Everywhere I went there were no pokemon that came near me. Heaven forbid I do harm to these fire mutts. To say I was bitter was an understatement. . They all seem to have it out for me .

There was one ninetales that was different, well let’s say it still seem like it wanted to make my life miserable. This one seem to have it out for me. Anything I tried to do it was there to mess it up. After I turned fourteen I gave up on being a trainer. I started to put my head into the books. My parents were happy I was going to be something but I just wanted out of here. Away from these fucking fire pokemon.

It started to get worse when I tired to have friends I just wanted to have someone to talk to. Yet when I got close to someone there parents would find out even when we would be silent about it. It was a pain I would see this one ninetales and it’s red tips on its tails. I don't know how but I know it had something to do with this. Any time I went near it or look towards it. It would run off.

My anger got worse as time went on. No one to be friends with, most adults making it look l was cursed. Yet fate decided to be kind to me.

I found someone to be friends with. Her family moved to town as her father was asked to help run the new pokemart in town. She was someone who approached me as many told her to stay away from me.

She didn't care for the so called rumors or things said about me being cursed.

We became fast friends. She told me she wanted to be friends. Hell I didn't give a shit she was female I wanted someone to talk to who was not an adult . She could have a boyfriend I wouldn’t give a shit as long as she talked to me and hang with me.

Trust me when I say this. Being alone sucks on so many levels. You tend to make friends with anyone. Hell I knew guys approach her right away. Many asked me if I mind. I told them no. I just wanted to be friends with her. Most understood why. Yet she turned them all down.

That took me off guard as she was pretty yet she didn’t seem to mind being around the cursed one. She told me once that it was stupid for others to judge me over something that I didn't do.

I was happy for once in my life. She traveled a lot did contest and fell in and out of love. Yet she was steadfast friends with me. I just turned sixteen when she asked me to be more than friends. I didn’t want to, as I was afraid I would ruin anything we had.

She keep on me about for a while saying I was the only constant in her life. She kissed me things change after that. I finally felt my life could be better I would be leaving school in a year and soon travel. I wanted to support her. One reason I wanted it to go slow was so she could have her freedom. Just because I loved her and she me. Didn't mean I wanted to strangle her by being so close . I was happy with being in a long distance relationship and if it fell apart. It would hurt less. Yet I prayed she still wanted to be friends if we didn’t work out, as I didn’t want to be alone again. Also it help she always bought me a lot gifts.I was greedy like that.

Than it happen. One night after taking her out for a celebration she had just beat Sally a powerful contest trainer.

She was so happy that night after dinner as we walked home she kissed me deeply. I could feel this was different as she was feeling me up and I her. It became hot and bother quickly and I really wanted her that night. She broke the kiss she looked over my shoulder and there was a ninetales. The red tip tail one.

The fire pokemon began to growl as I told her to run. I picked up a stick to hope to defend her. She ran than the ninetales chased after her. I ran after throwing everything I could at the ninetales. The mutt seem to have it in for her as I tried my best to stop it. Finally she was able to make it to the mini pokemon center. She ran inside as the ninetales stop its pursuit.

I was angered beyond belief. I threw a rock at the ninetales and it dodge it . I fully expected it to attack but just look at me with sadness in its eyes. Than it ran off.

I was able to make sure she was safe. The next day I was placed under arrest for attacking the ninetales. Despite her telling the local police that it attack her and I was trying to defend her I was fined several thousand dollars. It was paid off by her and my parents.

I told her it was best that if we didn't see each other any more. I told her I would pay her back. She slapped me and then kissed me deeply. She left town the next day to travel she told everyone she had to defend her title, I knew why she left and didn't want to see me. I never felt so empty . I really wanted to die.

It was that fucking fire mutt’s fault. It has made sure I suffer these last few years. I want them dead all of them they were nothing special. If I could I would join some team and hunt them all down or be a poacher and kill each one. I have suffered because of them. I have not know happiness since I first tried to have one as a pokemon.

I am 18 now it is full circle for me as I stop sitting on the dock after my little stroll down memory lane. I get up knowing tomorrow will be the day I go on my first day at work I will be working as an intern at a branch of Sliphco a pokemon company. I have an Uncle who lives near company and I will live with him till I can get on my own feet.

I wanted away from this town so badly. As I walk home I heard the sounds of thunder. I walk even slower not really caring knowing I won't be in this town any more. No more ninetales or its kin to make me suffer. A special pokemon of the town Tauros shit!

They are worthless pokemon that are not special they are fucking assholes. I am glad I will not be here any more. The rain starts as I could care less as I make it to the center of town and see the statue of the hero of town and the three pokemon who help him. Two a legendary and the other one the bane of my existence. I pick up a rock and throw it at the ninetales in the statute . I yell at it cursing it as if it is the reason my life sucks here. I yell at the statue till my throat hurts the rain continues to pour.

I fall to my knees crying saying it was not fair my dreams were taken from me my friends and one I loved were all taken from me because of them.

I start to get up and than I see it the ninetales even in the darkness of the rain I can see the tail tips. It's the one I blame the most of all.

“ARE YOU HAPPY I HAVE NOTHING HERE!!! I COULD NEVER GO ON MY POKEMON JOURNEY BECAUSE OF YOUR KIND!!!! THE ONE I LOVED I HAD TO LET HER GO BECAUSE OF YOU! I HATE YOU I HATE YOU AND YOUR KIND!!!!”

I fall to my knees crying now not caring anymore so much hatred all released at once. I never knew how angry I was till then.

I heard something move towards me I didn't care anymore if it was the ninetales . I would strangle it if it got to close to me I didn’t care if it is a sacred beast of the town I would kill this one.

It stop before me as I look up in anger in my eyes but I did not expect to see what I saw in its eyes. The ninetales eyes are filled with sadness.

Why would this beast be sad for fucking up my life scaring the only one who would love me away.

‘Forgive me I never meant to hurt you. Yet I had to make sure you were ready for what is to come.’

Forgive .. was that telepathy. My mind couldn't comprehend at that moment

“How dare you say that after what you did. I know you have been behind all of it !!! I KNOW YOU TRIED TO DESTROY ANY HAPPINESS I COULD HAVE!!! FOR WHAT SO I CAN FORGIVE YOU !?!? FUCK YOU FUCK YOU AND YOUR KIND!!! I HAVE NOTHING HERE NOTHING!!!!”

It still looks at me with sad eyes. still it was close and I would not have a better chance. I reached out with my hands and put them around it’s throat. I was going to kill this animal.

It did nothing to fight back. As I was slowly choking the life from it.

‘ It is nearly time and I can not go with you, know I did this so when it is right you will be whole. Once again I am sorry but it has been lonely these last few decades…’

I am blasted by a psychic blast making me releasing her. I struggles to get up as I looks at the ninetails he realizes the voice I hear is actually female. What did she mean make sure I was ready.

‘It is time my lo…. it is time for you to meet your destiny know what happens is up to you. Know that you are ready. :

As if on cue a portal opens as I am pulled into the portal I hear her voice say something. Something he didn’t expect to hear.

‘I will be waiting for you. ‘

Then darkness.

End notes : I will try to keep up a regular schedule but I doubt I will. But I will try my best.
