Chapter 13 Lucid Dream ?

Cold

Freezing Cold

I breathed out a sigh as I tried to lift myself but a sudden pain racked my body. It rose from my Right leg.

I winced in pain as I opened my eyes what I saw baffled me. I was in an open area with snow covering the ground. I looked around and found myself surrounded by Pine trees. I was in a forest snow-laden on the ground and cold winds whistling

A sudden influx of memories hit me.

" How the hell did I reach here and where the flying shit is Jack " I whispered to myself I looked down myself and saw myself in completely different clothes. I was wearing a thick blue Haori and Grey thick pants with something covering my legs that matched my haori.

at my back was a wooden box tied like a backpack

I looked at the sky which was grey from the stormy overcast my only thought was that had I died and reincarnated again and this time in demon slayer world ( Don't get scared readers it is still a Pokemon fanfic just read ahead)

" Please don't do this to me god" I pleaded

I looked down at myself and pulled up my pant from the right lev. It was swollen and bruised maybe sprained.

' Calm down Grey first check your surroundings ' I calmly repeated to myself as I pulled off the load from my back. It was a simple wooden box with light metal on the corners. it also had a lid on top. I opened the box and rummaged inside.

Clothes, food, books, a packet of the page and some round wooden balls. I pulled out the wooden balls to inspect them but to my surprise I instantly recognised them

They were the pokeballs used in the game legends Arceus and they looked identical with a zip-like mechanism instead of a button and a metal hole-like thing on the top. The ball had a Red colour with the underside having a wooden-like texture.

" I am still in the Pokemon world " I mumbled to myself as I twisted the ball around

I placed the balls in my haori and pulled out the wrapped paper packet. opening the packet I found long leaks with purple stems. I also found a bag of berries,

" Hmm, Pokemon potions were crafted from this " I looked down at the leek. in the future, these leeks were rarely found in the wild but these were grown in large greenhouses. wild Pokemon if injured usually knew where to find these.

I rummaged inside my pocket and found a small flip knife with a sharp edge.

I sliced the stem in the purple part and placed it in my mouth and chewed it. The bitter taste assaulted my mouth and I held back the urge to gag and spit after chewing it I spat the juice on my bruised arm.

The bruise sizzled and shimmered then the bruising faded

" At least I watched that short where a zorua healed a hisuian boy with a leek" I sighed and lifted myself after taking a careful account of what I had I walked from where the footsteps led.

Travelling up the mountain I tried to find a cave or something while it was a dumb move but the weather spoke otherwise. it seems that a blizzard may hit the mountain area.

I pulled down a Branch from a tree to make a stick and made my way up. During this time I saw many Pokemon's huddled over each other trying to burrow or make their way to their den

After an hour of searching, I found a cave. The cave was empty with a narrow crack that lead to the cave network.

I placed my pack inside and made my way out into the forest trying to search for a large enough bush to cover the cave mouth. I pulled with me some dry twigs and branches to start a fire and bark of birch tree as a fire starter

I covered the cave mouth with a big dense bush and made a fire inside to keep myself warm by this time I was already shivering from the cold.

Pulling a handful of clean snow I melted it in a pot and drank from it then I pulled out my food supply. Some deerling meat, a Large pack of rice, sausages, some spices and stew chunks.

I pulled out a pot and heated it and left the pot to shimmer with stew placing the other pot which had water and rice

I leaned back to relax as the fire crackled I was thinking about how I had reached here and what can be the cause when I heard a bark. I looked around then tugged the bush aside to see if there was a pokemon. Not finding any I returned and pulled down the stew and rice. I placed my curry rice in a bowl when another bark sounded. I looked towards the crack where this time the noise had come from.

I made my way to the crack and looked inside the room on the other side was dim but a pair of blue eyes glowed from inside.

I froze but when the figure came into the light I relaxed.

It was a Rockruff

Rockruff is a quadrupedal, canine Pokemon It is primarily light brown with a darker brown muzzle, paws, and ear tips. It has large blue eyes,  Button ears, a short muzzle with a triangular pink nose, and a short tuft of fur on each cheek. Around its neck is a ruff of greyish-white fur stubbed with dark brown pebbles. The dark brown markings on its paws extend to a thin point on each wrist and ankle. It has a greyish-white tail that curls tightly over its back and is covered in fluffy fur.

" Ruff, Ruff" It barked out wagging its tail

I backed away to give him some space after a while it entered the cave The Rockruff circled the fire and then went to my bowl to eat.

" Hey now that is mine " I Whipped up the bow and took out an unused box pouring some stew into it

" Here have it, " I said as I carefully placed it down

" Ruff Rock " Rockruff barked happily and started making the stew

He jumped up and ran towards me rubbing the rocks around the collar and licked me

" Hey, Hey don't do that" I pulled him away from my hair. Now to the point of business

While Rockruff is good for early beginners they are hard to take care of later and I don't even have my pokebook to know it's moving.

' Should have remembered the details' I cursed to myself for my laziness

" Hey buddy I am on a journey you know wanna come with me I will give you delicious treats like this and make you strong " I spoke gently while The Rockruff was young from the colour of fur and young pokemon are naive too and easy to deal with.

That is why most starters are young. While my team had Two young pokemon the other two were just chill pokemon who wanted to be strong and Pangoro was manipulated by me at an emotional than in his life.

Rockruff lapped the stew then looked at me sniffing my palm then sat down lolling their tongue with a relaxed expression he then rolled over as if asking for a belly rub

I blinked while I didn't have a Dog in my first life but I did know that if a Dog or cat shows you its belly its protected part then that means that it trusts you

I rubbed his belly

" You are a trusting fellow aren't you," I said then pulled out a pokeball and captured him.

With smoke rising from the ball it wriggled and then shot out a firework from the top metal

I looked down in my palm and then released Rockruff

He jumped on me rubbing his collar after about twenty minutes Rockruff relaxed and fell asleep I too then snuggled close after a minute of thinking sleep took me

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`~``~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

" Hey, Dumbass wake up......shit wake up " A voice pierced my sleep

" Go away I just went to sleep " I mumbled

" Wake up " Sighed the voice

Baaammmm

A sharp crackle sounded and a flash of light accompanied

I woke up suddenly with my chest hurting. I was in a dark room with windows broken the building looked as if it was burned.

A wave of pain rippled through me from my chest I looked down at my abdomen to see it heavily bandaged.

I coughed and then looked around for a cup of water.

" About Time you woke up " I looked at the darkness from where the voice came from.

A dark-haired guy with A eye patch His face was angular and a thin beard on his face

It was Jack

I looked at him and then touched my mouth. It was uncovered
