Sinopse

Waking up in a dark, foreboding forest wasn't the best way to start his Saturday morning, but he'd had worse. Still, the massive, snarling, shadow-wolves were certainly a first.

Chapter 1Re://Start

Opening his eyes, Alden blinked his light golden eyes a few times at his unfamiliar surroundings. From his current position on the hard, cold ground, he could see the outline of trees in the darkness around him. Looking up, he saw an expansive tangle of branches and leaves dozens of feet above him.

As he sat up, he noticed a blinking spot in the corner of his vision. Focusing on it caused it to expand into a glowing golden window floating extremely conspicuously in front of him. He glanced around, seeing nothing that required his immediate attention, before turning back to the window.

[Initializing Monster Armament System.]

The screen blinked, before a loading bar appeared. It started to fill extremely slowly, and it seemed that it would take a few minutes to fill completely.

*Snap*

Alden's head whipped around as the sound of a branch cracking rang out behind him. Gold met red, as his eyes met another's. Unfortunately, the dripping muzzle filled with rows of razor sharp teeth below the eyes didn't seem as friendly as he would have hoped. He took the barest glance at the rest of the creature, shrouded in darkness as it was, it seemed to almost melt into it.

As soon as a low growl began leaving the creatures throat, Alden rolled to his feet and took off like a bullet. The wind brushed past him as he sprinted through the brush. The sound of snapping twigs and the crackle of dry leaves rung out behind him as, evidently, the creature gave chase.

He was panting, his stamina leaving him quickly as he kept running.

*Thud*

Tripping over a root, Alden hit the ground with a loud thud. He heard the steps behind him slow down as the creature caught up to him. Rolling onto his back, he got a better look at the creature slowly padding towards him as a pale shaft of moonlight shone down onto it. Glowing, malevolent red eyes, a body formed of solid shadow, and a pale white mask of bone composed the creature that he couldn't help but recognize.

'Grimm.'

A word that held serious implications, though he didn't quite have time to consider them right now. As the creature came to a stop in front of him, he saw a vicious sadistic glint pass through it's ruby eyes. It was only a few meters away from him now, and he couldn't see any scars on its bone mask, nor much additional bone armor on its body.

That was good. As far as he knew, that meant it was young, inexperienced, and not too strong.

*Ding*

As it continued slowly padding towards him, and his mind raced to find a way out, he was interrupted from his thoughts by a quiet noise that seemed like a gunshot as it broke the thick tension. Evidently, creature, or as he assumed, the beowulf, couldn't hear the noise as it didn't react in any way. Suddenly, the window popped into focus in front of him once more.

[System initialized. Open Starter Package?]

'Yes'

The only response he could think of. He didn't know what this 'system' was, nor what it could do, but he certainly didn't see any other way out of this scenario.

[Opening Starter Package. Obtained: {Random Weapon Armament} (*), {Random Accessory Armament} (*).]

[Rolling {Random Weapon Armament} (*). Gained {Creep-bone Spear (C)} (*)]

[Rolling {Random Accessory Armament} (*). Gained {Sabyr Tooth Necklace (UC)} (*)]

[Auto-equip active, Armaments equipping.]

As the prompt faded, two items formed upon his body. A spear made of bone in his hand, and a necklace with a single long tooth as its centerpiece around his neck. He rolled to his feet, as the Grimm stopped mid-step in surprise. Without quite knowing what he was doing, Alden surged forward with spear in-hand, and cleanly thrusted it forward at the beowulf. It lodged deeply into it's shoulder, and it gave a low growl of pain.

He wrenched the spear back, and as the Grimm attempted to lunge at him, he stepped to the side and dragged the spear along the Grimm's side. As it exited, a long, jagged line was left behind, with shadowy smoke curling around it. The Grimm wasn't able to support it's front limbs on it's shoulder any longer, and collapsed to the ground. Alden exhaled before piercing the spear through the Grimm's mask, ending it's existence.

*Ding*

As he collapsed to the ground, he watched as the Grimm's shadowy form dissipated into smoke, drifting off into the night sky. There was a glint of light on the ground as it seemed to have left behind a small crystal. Letting out a heavy sigh of relief, he returned his attention to the ever-persistent golden window.

[Congratulations on slaying your first Grimm! Would you like to forge an armament?]

Pokemon Alternate Universe Adventures

A man from an Earth gets the choice to start over in any Universe and chooses an Alternate Pokemon Universe. Let us see if his journey to the top is succesful and the impact he will have on his new world. Pokemon is owned by Nintendo, Game Freak and Creatures Inc. I just use their sandbox for the plot of my MC and my OCs. This will be a "slow" paced story, in fact it's "super slow paced", so please don't expect the MC to directly start his journey in 20 chapters or so, actually multiply that by like 15. A lot is going to happen before that happens. The first 10-20 chapters or so are information heavy, depending on what kind of reader you are. I try to keep my chapter length between 2000 and 3000 words per chapter. My release rate is 4 chapter/week for now. I have a patre*n for those that want to support me with access to some advance chapters as a thank you. patre*n.com/Azrail93 This is an alternate pokemon universe so there will be differences to the games, manga and anime. So if something in the story is different it is most likely on purpose. The original sources are seen as suggestions not laws. Differences can be: Type variants, evolution conditions, strength mechanics, world building and more. If I am at some point asking for reader input I will do so but otherwise I will ignore most suggestions. So please don't spam things like catch this pokemon or do that next. I have my plot planned and external input will be considered when asked for. If I see a suggestion that I believe fit my plot flow I will use it and will credit the commentor. Comments on spelling and grammar mistakes are welcome. I will try to correct said mistakes with time. Constructive criticism will be read and considered. Insult and hate comments will be ignored or deleted depending on severity. Readers naturally can comment their dislike but one worders will be ignored. If the reason for the dislike is explained I will read it. Like previously mentioned pure insults and hate comments will be ignored or deleted. The same is true for simple hate reviews or insulting ones. Reviews complaining about something I warned about, such as the slow pace, will be deleted as well.
