I can remember that day so very well. It had 3 years since my mother died. I still hadn't taken well. "Amber?! When you learn to trust pokémon? I mean, you stipped the pokémon trainer's test for a year?!" my little brother, Jackie, yelled at me during breakfast, on the morning of that day.

I didn't take too kindly to that. "I can be just as trusting towards pokémon as the next person?!" I shouldn't have said that.

"Then prove it?!"

|||

"O.K. then, you know I'm a girl who keeps her word?!"

"So?!"

"I'm gonna prove what I said by making you a promise, O.K.?!"

|||

"A promise?!"

I smiled at him. "Uh-huh. I promise you that the next time I see a pokémon in trouble, instread of screaming like a baby Larvitar using Screech, I'll help it, & I'll help it with everything within my power, O.K.?!" I softly said to him.

He prouted at me. "I guess it's O.K.?!"

|||

"There, that's better!" Little did either of us know, that promise was the start of an adventure. Of course, I had no idea what the distressed pokémon was gonna be, but never in my wildest dreams, did I even think it was gonna be him.

&&&

Later that night.....

I sitting out in my backyard, just staring into the water of that swimming pool. I used to do that a lot, in fact, I found it quite relaxing. That was when I heard some strange sounds.

Crack!

Zap!

Zoom!

Boom!

|||

"That's weird?!" I said. That's when it happen. First, the night sky started to get dark, well, dark than usual. But the moon stayed visual, which was what was so weird about it. There were also strange trails of bright, light. & some kind of greyish blur, was fighting something that was big, green, scaley, & had claws. I didn't know what to do, & then --

Boom!

Zoom!

Whoosh!

Splash!

|||

The 'blur' was blasted out of the night-time sky & fell straight into the pool. I myself, guessing that the 'blur' was a pokémon, & remembering my promise to Jackie, dived in after it. As I pulled it out of the water, I saw that something was wrong.

"Hey?! You all right?!" I asked as I layed it on the paved ground, but it didn't answer. I put an ear to it's chest, then did the same to it's arm, & then to it's nose. 'Oh no?!' I grasped as I thought to myself. 'It's not breathing?!' I then decided that I had to do CPR on it.

"Come on?! Breath for pete's sakes?!" was what I kept saying as I pounded away on it's chest, & forcefed it air. Just as I started to lose hope, it opened it's mouth, let out a big cough, & spat & upchucked all the water it engulf in my face.

|||

"Thank goodness, you're O.K., what-ever-you-are?!" I said with a sigh. I gave it a good look, it was a pokémon, but not one that I've seen. It was some kind of feline pokémon, & as big as a human, as well as shaped almost like one too, & it was grey & purple. It had a triangular head; big, circular, things for fingertips; & horn-shaped ears. It also had a long, yet short, tail; a big shoulder-pat-like-thing on it's chest; narrow eyes, I could tell that even though they were closed; & a long, tube-like, structure, going down from the it's head to just past the base of it's neck.

It opened it's eyes a little. "(What in the world?! Where am I?)" it then looked at me & it's eyes opened completely with shock & rage. "(A human!? What are you doing here!? Ugh?!)" it slowly lowered itself back down on the ground as it've gotton up too quickly.

"It's O.K.! I'm not gonna hurt you?!" I said as I helped it up. "Now, come on?! Let's get you inside before you get yourself sick, O.K.?!"

|||

"(Why?)"

"Well, staying out in the cold, night air, while you're wet & hurt, especially when you've almost drowned, is bad for your health. Even if you're steady as far as that's concerned."

"(No. I mean, why are you helping me?)"

|||

"Well, I made a promise to someone that I would help the first pokémon I saw in trouble, who just happens to be you."

"(Really?!)"

"Yeah. You're really lucky I kept my promise, you know?!"

|||

"(I'm lucky?!)"

"Uh-huh! If I hadn't, you'd probably be dead. Do you have something I can call you by?!" I asked him, now realizing that it was a male. "You can tell me, you know?! I'll have you know that I haven't done anything bad to you, & that I just saved your life, so, the least you can do for me is tell me, O.K.?!"

"(Mewtwo.)" he looked at me in such a calm manner.

|||

"It's nice to meet you, Mewtwo?! My name's Amber." I then took him into the house & tended to his wounds. He didn't seem bad, it was just that the part within him, of which he used to trust, had been broken. I knew just how he felt. So, I let him sleep in my bed, while I slept beside it that night.
