Chapter I, Part One

"Laboratory Log-Year 1, Day 237

Our efforts may have at last come to fruition...after extensive testing on the fossil specimen NE3, we have found the genetic material we have been searching for. It's stroucture is similar to that of Ditto. However, it's stability is at risk. Entire protein chains are missing and more deteriorate by the hour. The structure, however, is very versatile and we may even be able to input our own fragments of DNA. The entire research staff is ecstatic. We have the chance to do what was before impossible...create from this material the world's strongest, fastest Pokemon. Our sponsor is also quite pleased with the news.... Tomorrow, we begin the dissection and creation of this Pokemon, assembled from the remains of the ancient Pokemon, Mew.​

Light...the first thing I remember. No, darkness first, then light. Always dark before the light...but before I even opened my eyes, I saw. I was aware. The scientists, other Pokemon, the grotesque ones as well. A spark of life rushed in through my body and so began my existence. I didn't know-didn't know how I knew what these things were, where I was- but I did all the same. I remember trying to flex my hands, trying to become aware of functions, and shattering the tube next to mine. I saw myself, the sickly, unnatural violet body and intense eyes. I knew then I was not meant to be. I tried to utter some sound, but no sound came.... I was encased in a bubbling orange fluid. I heard sounds from the outside, it seemed the humans were communicating, rather excitedly. They rushed about, picking up their phones and hurriedly typing down notes of my arrival. At last, I began to understand what they said...

"Quickly, call Giovanni, he will want to-"

"-more nutrients into tank and-"

"Monitor his vitals! Be sure-!"

So much buzzed around me, and I was not sure of what to do. I was at a loss for words, thoughts- I had no idea and I feared for my future. More astonishing still...was the control I began to feel. It was as if I was not only myself, but the humans around me as well. I could see their entire nervous system and manipulate it at will. I slowly tested this by extending the forefinger of the first researcher I had seen. As I did I caught a blue glare in the relection of the glass tube--my eyes were flaring an arcane blue.

I grew bored with the commotion of the outside world... I turned my thoughts inward. I tried fertively to remember something, anything that would clue me in to my existence. As I attempted it, I remembered flashes of things.... Great towering mounds with white peaks, a leafy forest...scattering, fleeting--I could not understand it. Finally, in my immense exhaustion, I closed my eyes, and drifted off to sleep...

Feedback appreciated.
