Author's Note:

DWA: Hey guys, if you've been waiting for this than here's your reward. If not well then it's because you never read "Death Begins a Journey". Plus, it's not really necessary to read that but if you want go ahead. Another thing, this chapter will be much shorter than the others so read and enjoy this Prologue.

Disclaimer: I, DarkWolfAssassin, do not and will not own Pokemon. Though it would be nice.

Chapter 0: Prologue.

It was around midnight as a ship sailed towards Sinnoh. A teenager stood at the front of the ship. He wore a dark green t-shirt under a black jacket with its hood down and was only somewhat open, showing the chain on which the remake of the wheel-like growth on Arceus is attached.

(Take the wheel thing on Arceus and put it on a necklace chain.)

He wore black pants with 2 dark green vertical stripes on the sides of each leg. He had vibrant green eyes and dark brown hair with no real style. He wore a belt meant to hold a sword, which it did. The katana was 2 feet and 9 inches when the hilt was included. It had a red and black hilt and sheath, and a red guard. This was the Oni no Tamashi, or Demon's Soul, a Katana rumored to steal souls. On the back of this belt held a dagger, the hilt had a brass knuckle design with sharp curved blades; the guard and sheath are the same as the Demon's Soul. This was the Oni no Tsume, or the Demon's Claw, known for the curved blades on the hilt that looked like claws and were known to change their orientation as to always face towards the ground if held horizontally. (For the shape of the blade look up Deadric Dagger Skyrim)

As he stood there, looking out to the boundless ocean, a figure walked up to him. It was mostly white, with green arms, what looks like a helmet with a fin on its head, and a red gem on its chest, it was a Gallade.

[I still don't understand why you left Eve, Skye, and Mag. They were very eager to come and they are the strongest of the Pokémon you've caught. We may need them.] It said.

Now this may seem strange, a human understanding Pokémon. He was gifted this ability after an . . . incident, four months into his journey.

He looked at the Gallade and said "Yeah I know, and I feel bad about not letting them come along. So that's why as soon as we hit land, we find a poke center and get them back."

He then looked back towards the sea, ready to take on the entire Sinnoh League.

By now you're probably wondering what happened to this kid and who he is. SO, I will tell you. His name is Mike, his family is dead, all killed in various ways. Poisoning, car crashes, assassinations, wild Pokémon attacks . . . you get the point.

At the age of fifteen, he set out on his Pokémon journey, mostly because everyone in his town thought he was cursed. He set out with his only remaining friend, Cassidy. Two Ralts saved their lives from a Mightyena, and became their first Pokémon. About four months into their journey they stop in Shoros (Shore –us) Town to visit David, a family friend to Mike, only to see David arguing with a man, and get shot in the chest. Mike ran from the scene and after a few hours, the intense rage he felt as he saw his friend die, awoke something, and let something in, and he blacked out.

When he awoke he had a vision, a vision of himself taking the Demon's Soul from David's house and then going on a rampage, using dark and psychic powers to kill and destroy everything in Shoros Town, all while the Demon's Soul in his hand. This caused a rather, dark, reaction. His mind snapped, reopening the well of psychic power that was used in Shoros town's destruction, and he became incapable of reacting to causing death. However, instead of going on a killing rampage, the fact that Cassidy watched this unfold, stood beside him, never wavering in friendliness, or showing fear, allowed him to help others.

He attacked the "Teams" of the world, killing members and their Pokémon. He has honed his psychic abilities so he can rival an Alakazam and a Gardevior. Even though he never used a Katana or any blade, swordsmanship came naturally and he had the skill of a lifelong master. While traveling Kanto, he saw the Demon's Claw at an Antique store and was drawn to it, and bought it, without really knowing why. At this point he is the champion of Hoenn, his home region, Kanto, and Johto, and Cassidy stand as his girlfriend. Despite being champion of three regions, his face isn't well known. He covers his face at the tournaments with his hood, and blurs pictures with his psychic powers, and avoids the press at all costs.

He even trains with his Pokémon, granting him a resistance to damage from Pokémon moves. He also gains the ability to use Pokémon moves, move at high speeds, and have extreme agility and even heighten his senses. Both he and his Pokémon have scars from their training.

Now that you know more about him, you will be able to understand him better as the story goes on, which continues in the next chapter.
