《On The Run: The Love Between Fugitives》Chapter 1: Fang's a Human?!!
Advertisement
They arrived at the bottom of the canyon, ready to climb. Fang was a Cyndaquil, soon to evolve, and Green had just become a Grovyle. She was jealous of him, but her time would eventually lead her to evolution. “Well, Green… this is it.” She said. “It’s time we get through this dungeon and find out why I became a Pokemon.” He nodded. “Yeah. But, Fang…” He said.
“Yeah?” She asked.
“Don’t you just… feel something? The Legend of the Ninetales curse… and you becoming a Pokémon… I feel like they’re linked somehow. I dunno. I can’t really find the words for it.”
“Green… You told me you wouldn’t lose faith in me. I know that I don’t know who I am or why I’m here, but that’s what we’re here for. I remember the times we had up until now, and… they were pretty great. So don’t go losin’ that faith. Because if we go down, I wanna go down with you… as best friends.”
Green sighed and nodded. “Yeah, I guess you’re right.” He said, smiling. “There’s no way I’d stay like that forever, anyway.” Fang smiled at him, giving him a noogie. “Good! Then let’s get going!” She said. With that, they went off.
As they made their journey through, Fang made sure to protect Green. Because she knew that he needed to hear the truth as well, just as much as Fang needed to hear it herself. “Fang… You know how important this is to me. I mean, what if you ARE that human? Would you still be friends with me after this whole time?” He asked. Fang just looked back at him, her smile fading. “That’s what I thought too, Green.” She said. “But… we’ll never really know unless we ask Xatu. And... my decision relies on how it's seen by him.” She sighed as she climbed up to the Hill of the Ancients. She remembered how she came to this world, and how she had met Green for the first time as they formed a Rescue Team as she climbed to the top.

As they approached Xatu, Gengar, leader of Team Meanies, decided to spy on them. He eagerly listened to every word, how Xatu feared the end of the world, and how Fang’s becoming a Pokemon and the natural disasters were linked. As he soon learned this, he snickered, knowing he had something to use against her in the Square, and he even had the necessary proof to back it up.
Fang, being left surprised, was absolutely stunned by the words she had just heard. She didn’t know how to respond to Xatu at all; she could only wonder what it all really meant. “Green… Did I…?” She found herself speechless, apart from the fact that she didn’t really know what she was asking. “Did I do this?” She asked. Green shook his head. “Fang… I’d never believe that you would cause this.” He said. “And besides, you’re not like the human from the legend. Now come on, we’ve gotta head home. We’ve got a TON of work to do tomorrow!” Reluctantly, Fang nodded and followed. After getting home, Green headed home, and Fang, reflecting upon the possibility of her truly being the human from the legend, slowly walked inside. Soon, after 2 hours of sitting on her bed, she drifted off to sleep.
A greenish hue had shown up, and a figure of herself appeared, a feminine voice ringing out to her. Surprised, Fang called out to the voice. “Please… tell me who you are!” She said, desperate. She wanted answers. Why was she a Pokemon? Why was she in the world of only Pokemon? And how is she linked to the natural disasters in the world? She wanted to know now. More than ever. Soon, a figure showed up in front of her. It was feminine, Green, and it looked as if it was wearing a robe. “I… I am Gardevoir…” She said, only faintly. “Gardevoir? I remember…” Fang said as she recalled Whiscash telling her the Ninetales Legend.

Gardevoir smiled. “I knew that old man would tell you…” She said. “Listen to me… Whatever you do… Do not go to…” She began to fade, her voice along with it. “Where? Where shouldn’t I go?! Gardevoir, wait! Don’t leave yet! I still have a lot of… questions…” Fang sighed as she stopped talking, hoping that she would come back, and answer what she would soon ask.
Fang soon woke up the next morning, almost with a jolt. Breathing heavily, she walked outside. “Man, I could go for some water right now…” She said. Green soon approached her with a troubled look on his face. “Something’s going on in the Square, Fang…” He said. “We should check it out.” Without any objections, Fang began walking to the Square, curious to see what was going on.
When she got there, she spotted Gengar talking to everyone. “You’ll never believe this, either!” He said. “Fang’s actually a human!” Everyone gasped. Was this true? That was the question in their minds. And without any further hesitation, Gengar continued, “But that’s not all! You see, Fang became a Pokemon, just like in the legend. And the disasters that are happening now? It’s all her fault!” Green was shocked. He knew something was indeed happening at the Square, but he never knew it was against Fang. It was a real shock to them both. Soon, Gengar spotted Fang, and had an idea.
“ I know of only one way to bring back peace.” He said. “We have to kill Fang!” Everyone soon turned on Fang and Green,and Green grew scared. Lombre approached, preparing a Scratch attack. “I’m sorry, Fang. but this is for your own good.” He dashed up and Fang dodged, soon urging Green to to run for his life. He soon nodded, pulling Fang away from Pokemon square as he glared at Gengar, who was cackling at the sight of them running away from everyone, soon joined by Ekans.
It wasn’t long before someone shouted out, “GET THEM!!” As the whole crowd chased them. In a desperate move, they made a run for their home and hid there for many hours.
