Background before you read this story

At age 11 Brendan and May stopped Team Magma and Aqua. 2 years have passed since this story has taken place. Brendan has become the Hoenn league champion at age 13, and May was Runner-up, but at the moment she is pursuing other dream of hers, get the entire set of ribbons for pokemon contest. While May was off somewhere in Hoenn, Brendan decided to take a break, and help his father a bit. The Main characters are NOT Brendan and May, These two have a sort of supporting role, but that changes as the story ends. If all goes according to plan, they should play a better part in the sequel to this story. During this two year period Team Aqua and Magma slowly began to die, unlike the game, where they immediately just give up.

Chapter 1: Mark of the Aquamarine Shard

After Brendan Birch and May Smith defeated Team Magma and Team Aqua, Both teams decided to move on and stop their dreams. Team Rocket’s Giovanni from Kanto heard about this and after years of planning *during the rise and downfall* decided that this was the time to conquer Hoenn, know that both Team Magma and Team Aqua were out of the way…..

In Kanto, a land far away from Hoenn, A man sat inside his leather chair smiling. His eyes closed, he thought of all the possibilities. He, Giovanni, could now take over Hoenn, since Team Aqua and Magma were disbanded. Someone knocked on the door on his office. Giovanni grumbled and then sighed. He really did not want to be disturbed. Giovanni opened the door to his office and an older man, in his late 60’s walked in. This older man was dressed in standard butler attire. He wore a very clean white colored button shirt, and over that white shirt he wore a black suit. The suit was pretty much opening exposing the white shirt because only the last two buttons were buttoned. The buttons were made out of gold and had a fancy seal that had many symbols and the biggest symbol was a fancy letter G. This man was also a wearing a black bow-tie around the white collar shirt. He wore black pants and black shoes to match. This was the attire of a butler of Giovanni’s Mansion. Giovanni looked at the man’s face. This older man had no facial expression whatsoever. Though this man was in his late 60’s, he didn’t have many wrinkles. The only evidence that he was old was his face expression and his neatly combed down white hair. Giovanni waited for the man to speak.

“Permission to speak, Sir?” The old man asked in a monotonous voice.

“Make it quick Fabrizio! I have very many important things to plan out!” Giovanni snapped.

“Your nephew, Eron, has arrived from Hoenn, he wish to speak to you.” Fabrizio said without a hint of emotion.

Giovanni walked to his chair and sat down and then turned his chair around so it wouldn’t face Fabrizio. Fabrizio simply waited for Giovanni’s command. For a whole minute and a half the room was silent. Giovanni then simply signaled for Fabrizio to get his young nephew. He was interested in hearing about his nephew and the person who defeated both Archie and Maxie. This information was vital to his plan. He would need to stop this young hero if he wanted to ever take over Hoenn. He waited a couple of minutes and his nephew walked in. His nephew, Eron, was about the 13 years old. Giovanni looked at his Nephew. He hadn’t seen is nephew for about 2 years. Eron had very messy dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. He skin was a lot tanner than it was before. He also wore the clothes of Team Aqua. He wore a black T-shirt. Over the black shirt he wore an azure vest over the black shirt. The vest had a zipper and was almost zipped fully. The only exposed part of the black shirt was the sleeves since the vest didn’t have any. He wore azure pants that matched the vest and on the side of the pants had red circles in a line going vertically. With all of this, he wore black sneakers. Giovanni hated the Aqua uniform, but his nephew had to wear it as he was a spy for the rockets. Giovanni saw that Eron was not wearing the bandana over his head. He saw that the bandana was tied around Eron’s arm.

“Well nephew, how was Hoenn?” Giovanni asked.

“Team Aqua leader Archie has permanently disbanded Team Aqua, and Team Magma leader’s Maxie has done the same. If you want to strike now would be the best time to. Brendan Birch is oblivious to current events right now, and the only thing that could possibly be a burden is May Birch. Her location is unknown but, she shouldn’t be much of a problem. I also marked out a map of Hoenn, and of all secret bases made by Team Aqua and Magma” Eron stated.

Eron was in no mood to talk, he was tired and frustrated. Giovanni noticed that.

“You tired Eron?” Giovanni asked.

“No.” Eron lied

“I know you are tired, you can explain to me tomorrow about your trip at Hoenn tomorrow, I will call Deacon so he can show you to your room.” Giovanni said.

“There is no need uncle, I can do it myself, though I have been away for 5 years I still know my way through this place, there is no need.” Eron said, trying not to sound as tired as he was feeling.

Giovanni nodded and signaled for him to leave. Eron walked out of the room, he was truly tired. His journey from Hoenn was long. He had been brought here by Giovanni’s private airplane. Eron was not only tired but sad, though he had been as a spy for Team Rocket while he worked in Team Aqua, he enjoyed working for Team Aqua, and if he had the decision He would have stayed in Hoenn, and accompanied Archie. Archie, Archie, the leader of Team Aqua, had permanently disbanded Team Aqua and left. Archie liked Eron a lot and even asked him come along with him. But Eron had to decline and made up an excuse. It seemed Archie didn’t care. Eron began to think about his time with Archie.

~

Eron and a man, maybe in his 30’s or 40’s, sat on the beach on Mossdeep. It was night so no one saw them. Eron was laying down in the sand while the man was sitting down looking at the moon. The man sitting next to Eron was wearing a cerulean blue bandana on his for head with a weird shape an imprinted on it. This man also wore a very nice suit. It was a dark navy blue color and he wore pants to match it.

“Eron, I wanted to talk to you about joining me, exploring the pokemon world, finding out more about the creatures of the Sea.” The man said.

Eron got up out of the sand he looked at the man’s face. The man had big black sideburns and a mustache. His big black eyes looked up at the moon. Eron smiled a bit. But as he remembered his duty to his uncle, his smiled became a frown. Eron had to make up a reasonable excuse; otherwise he would have insulted his friend.

“I can’t come with you Archie, my… father wants me to come home and participate in the Kanto League.” Eron said.

Archie nodded. “Its ok, 2 years away from your home, that’s tough.”

Eron nodded in agreement. Eron began to think. He looked at the only two pokeballs on his belt. He reached for them and grabbed the scarlet and white orbs. Eron then threw them to the ground. The broke open and flew back to his hands. Two rabbit like creatures appeared. They both were blue and had big hands and feet. They stood on two feet like humans did and had big black eyes. Their tails were long and skinny and at the end of their tails were big blue orbs. The two creatures hugged each other. Eron smiled.

“Aqua, Sapphire come here.” Eron said.

“Azu!” The Azumaril said.

The two Azumaril ran over to their master. Eron began to whisper in their ear. Archie was anxious to hear what was happening. Eron and the two rabbit pokemon smiled. Aqua and Sapphire approached Archie and smiled. Eron smiled. Archie was very confused.

“I want you to have my two Azumaril, since I’m not working for Team Aqua anymore, plus it’s the best gift I can give you right now.” Eron said.

“No I couldn’t-” Archie was all he could say before Eron started talking.

“No I want you to have them, besides, I have their child, he or she is more than good enough for me, when I can join you again, I will take them back.” Eron said and smiled.

Eron grabbed his backpack and took out the blue egg. He showed it to Archie and gently placed it back into his backpack. Eron stood up. He looked at a blue watch he had gotten for one of his birthdays. Archie had given it to him.

“Until next time,” Eron said and walked off the beach and walked into the city where he could ride the boat to get back home to Kanto.

“Until next time,” Archie said to himself.

~

It felt like they had been away from each other for years, but it was only yesterday that they had left each other. He missed Aqua and Sapphire. They were his only two pokemon he had every caught. The three of them made a great team and they even beat May and Brendan, of course they were much stronger now and Eron doubted that he could beat them now.

Eron walked up two flights of stairs to the 2nd Floor where his bedroom was located. Probably the only reason why Eron still stayed was because Giovanni was his only living relative. His Father and Mother were murdered, by some thief, at least that’s what his uncle told him. Eron knew it was probably a lie, he really didn’t trust his uncle that much. But, he couldn’t leave his only living relative; he felt that he should stay with his relative despite how much he was hated.

After walking down the hallway, Eron stood in front of a dark tall black oak door. He looked at the doorknob. The starfish shaped doorknob was a golden color and the center part of the starfish had a ruby red orb. Eron grasped the doorknob and turned it, and slowly began to push the door open.

Eron’s room hadn’t changed a bit since the last time he saw. Unlike most rooms of Giovanni’s house, this room was bright and cheery. The walls were a bright blue color and had pictures and posters of many water pokemon. Some were big while others were smaller. One particular poster took up most of a wall and parts of the poster were on the other walls as well. This poster was at least 21 feet in length and was a picture of a powerful and long blue dragon, known as Gyarados. Eron always smiled when he saw this poster of Gyarados, Gyarados was probably one of his most favorite pokemon. Eron looked around some more seeing all of his toys, his TV, and his video game system. He looked at his bed which was as it was when he left it 5 years ago, messy, and unmade. Eron walked to his bed and laid his backpack down on it and took the blue egg out. Eron hopped onto the bed and smiled in a few days this egg would hatch, he wanted to make sure that nothing would happen to this egg.

“Once you hatch I will name you after a shade of blue, like your father and mother.” Eron smiled and soon drifted off to sleep.

~

Eron was in some kind of tower. Three kids were right behind him, all about his age. Two of them were girls, the other two were boys. Eron, the pink haired girl, and and a green haired boy all sent out a pokemon. Eron sent out an Azumaril that looked a lot like Sapphire and Aqua. The Pink haired girl sent out a big bear-like pokemon with a mane of fire, commonly known as Typhlosion. The green haired boy sent out a human like creature with green hair. This creature was a Gardevoir. Azumaril, Typhlosion, and Gardevoir all faced three huge creatures. They all had lines over them glowing different colors. One of the creatures had lines that glowed red, another blue, and the last yellow. These creatures charged towards Azumaril, Typhlosion, and Gardevoir.

~

Eron woke up. It was a dream. He wondered what this dream meant because he believed that dreams, no matter how silly always symbolized for something. Eron looked at the watch on his hand and in digital numbers read 9:00 AM. Eron looked for the egg, which laid there, right next to him. He smiled and put it gently back into his blue backpack. Eron left his room to go and shower and change. In thirty minutes, he was full dressed and ready to meet his Uncle.

Eron wore a simple black T-shirt and dark blue faded jeans along with it. Around his waist was his denim jacket. He brought along with him always, in case he ever needed it. And tied around his neck was the Aqua Bandana, only he had flip it over so no one could see the A on it, his uncle would be mad if he saw him wearing it.

Eron opened the door and walked down two flights of stairs and walked to his Uncle’s Office. He opened the door and there he was sitting in that leather chair of his. His Uncle signaled for him to sit down in one of the many chairs in his office. Eron sat down; he didn’t want to upset his uncle.

“So Eron, did you catch any rare Hoenn pokemon?” Giovanni asked.

“No.” Eron replied.

“So what have you been doing in Hoenn exactly?” Giovanni asked.

“I followed Archie’s command and try to take over Hoenn killing people and stuff like that. But in the spare time I had, I looked into files to get information for you.” Eron answered.

All of what he had said now was a lie. He did catch a rare pokemon but he had let it go before he came here. Eron really didn’t act like Archie’s grunts; they were reckless and killed people. Eron actually didn’t do anything; he was originally a servant to Archie, because at the time he was too young to do what the grunts did. But after defeating Brendan and May when they attempted to take down Archie, Archie realized how powerful and cunning Eron was and made him his junior advisor and body guard.

“So what information can you give me?” Giovanni smiled.

“The information that I told you yesterday and before is all the information I have gotten; there is no more I can tell you.” Eron said.

Giovanni began to look a bit agitated. His nephew had gotten no useful information. He could have paid someone to get the information Eron gave him. Giovanni wanted to get rid of him, just like had done with His Father, Giovanni’s brother, and his mother. But Giovanni needed Eron because so far he was the only person in Team Rocket to actually live in and explore the Hoenn region. Giovanni thought for a bit. He came up with an idea.

“Eron do you still have the map?” His Uncle asked politely.

“Yes.” He answered and took the map out and handed it to Giovanni. His Uncle smiled. Eron could see that his Uncle was pleased about the map he had made.

“I want you to lead the Rocket Troops and take the Red and Blue Orb I have heard so much about. Tomorrow.” Giovanni said.

Eron nodded.

“Do you need any pokemon to fight with?” Giovanni asked.

“No I’ll be fine. I have got a pokemon of my own.” Eron said and left the room.

Giovanni smiled. He knew from other sources that the red an blue orbs were still guarded by the old couple but, rumors had it that the two Legendary Dragons, Latios and Latias were there to protecting the old couple, making sure nothing would happen to the orbs. If the rumors were true he could get rid of his nephew and all of his troops that smear the rocket name. But if the rumors weren’t true, at least he would get the two orbs still.

Eron walked back to his Room if he was leading the Rocket troops tomorrow he would need to prepare and rest up. As he opened the door, a bright blue light began to shine in his room. He quickly enter so he could see what it was. After the light stopped shining, Eron looked around. Something jumped onto his head. Eron grabbed the thing. It was all soft and squishy. He looked at the thing and smiled. The thing smiled back.

“So you decided to hatch.” Eron said. “You look pretty healthy for an Azurill, that’s always a good sign.”

The Azurill jumped from Eron’s hands and onto the floor. Eron observed the Azurill some more. Azurill was nothing more than an armless blue mouse with eyes. looked a lot like Azumaril. Its legs were tiny and Azurill could hardly walk, but the orb on its tail was really big and was at least two times the size of Azuril itself. Azuril bounced and bounced, up and down on that orb.

“I think I’ll name you Cobalt.” Eron said.

Cobalt bounced up and down many times, it was quite pleased to have such nice name. Eron couldn’t help but smile. Cobalt remind him of Aqua, when he was a Maril. Aqua was always so happy. Almost nothing could make the little Maril sad. Cobalt bounced into Eron’s arms. Eron took out a pokeball, a pokeball he had been saving for a long time. Unlike other red and white pokeballs, this pokeball was Pink and white. On the Pink part of the pokeball had a dark pink heart on it. This was a Love ball. This was a kind of pokeball that made pokemon like their trainer a lot. Cobalt looked at the pokeball and touched the button on it. Immediately the mouse pokemon was sucked inside. The love ball shook a couple of times and then clicked and stopped moving. Eron threw the love ball to the ground and Cobalt came out.

“Azu!” Cobalt cried out happily.

For the rest of the day Eron packed up and got supplies ready. He also played with Cobalt a bit. By 9:00 PM. he was ready to go. Eron and Cobalt were talking. Cobalt kept on asking questions about his Parents, Aqua and Sapphire. Only after a few hours Cobalt had learned how to talk, not correct English, but enough to carry a conversation. Eron noticed that the little blue mouse was a quick learner.

<So how Mommy captured?> Cobalt asked.

“Well, you see, Sapphire wasn’t captured; she volunteered to come with me.” Eron said to the blue mouse.

<So Master captured Daddy?> Cobalt asked.

“Yes I captured Aqua. Aqua was tough to catch but I caught him.” Eron replied.

<Daddy strong!?> Cobalt exclaimed

“Yes Aqua was really powerful. He was a very skilled pokemon. You should have inherited some of his attacks. I taught him a lot of Physical Attack TM.” Eron explained.

<I powerful, just like Daddy!> Cobalt said very surprised.

“I guess so. Once you train a bit and become stronger, you should be very strong.” Eron said.

Cobalt yawned. Eron couldn’t help but smile some more. This had been the happiest he had been for a while now. Eron wanted to go back to Hoenn, but not as a Rocket or an Aqua, but as a trainer and try to become the best in Hoenn, and eventually fight, Brendan the current Pokemon League Champion. As Eron began to think more and more about quitting Team Rocket to become a trainer, a box under his bed started to glow a blue color.

<Master! Master!! Glow!> Cobalt shouted.

Eron looked under the bed and picked the box up. It was a simple show box but it kept glowing. Eron began to open the box. When he took the lid off, the box stopped glowing. He saw a small blue crystal shard that kept glowing.

<Pretty…> Cobalt said and bounced towards the stone.

Cobalt tried to pick the stone up with his mouth, since he had no hands. As soon as he did this the stone disappeared and he started to glow a bright blue color. Eron didn’t have a clue what was going on with his pokemon.

“Cobalt!?” Eron exclaimed

After a few minutes the stone reappeared in the hands of Eron, but in the form of an amulet. The shard was attached to a golden chain. Eron looked at the amulet and something in his head told him to put it on. He put it on. Cobalt stopped glowing and fell to the ground unconscious.

“Cobalt!” Eron yelled.

He inspected the little mouse pokemon. Cobalt seemed to be alright, but on his head, there seemed to be some marks. All the marks were a circular shaped and made a cross shape. Cobalt started to regain consciousness.

<Master, what happened?> Cobalt asked.

“Nothing, you were just really tired, come on lets go to bed.” Eron told the mouse pokemon.

Cobalt nodded. Eron took the love ball off his belt and Cobalt was absorbed into the ball by a red beam. Eron laid on his bed staring at the ceiling. He couldn’t figure out what had just happened, Cobalt seemed okay but…

I'm Back
Ummmm

I sort of got lost in the transition. So your protagonist is eron who is Giovani's nephew? And I'm not sure if he's bad or good, perhaps you wanted it this way but it's sort of hard to comprehend so I think you should take a little more time expanding on you idea to make your chapters more therough and understandable.

3.5/5 smeargles in a barrel for this story.
Don't ask about the .5 *evil chuckle*

Serge Rules!
Yes you are correct, Eron is Giovanni's nephew. Yes you are correct that it is suppose to be hard to comprehend whether he i good or bad. Ok, thats good to know, I make sure to edit this chapter a bit and put more detail in the next chapter. Sorry if this chapter is sorta unclear and stuiff, You'll leran about Eron and everyone else in chapter two.

Thank you for responding ^^, Now I hope more people will post.

Boip!
I don't see what's so splendid about this story. Hehe, I said splendid, I crack me up! Let's see where we can correct this story that seems jumbled.

First off, don't use the number keys, use your words. Type out eleven, or fifty, or sixty eight, instead of typing 11, 50, or 68, ya dig?

After Brendan Birch and May Smith defeated Team Magma and Team Aqua, Both teams decided to move on and stop their dreams. Team Rocket’s Giovanni from Kanto heard about this and after years of planning *during the rise and downfall* decided that this was the time to conquer Hoenn, know that both Team Magma and Team Aqua were out of the way…..

I have bolded errorous spots. There's no need to capitalize after a comma. Also, you need some ing to your know, if you're knowing what I mean.

You misuse, or rather, you don't use commas quite often, and thus, this story feels run-on and fast paced. I suggest you reread this again and when you feel a pause unworthy of its own sentence, add a comma.

As with every new writer, I'm going to suggest you read stories, as reading helps us learn to write. Until then, spruce this baby up a bit, and it will look much better.

Serge Rules!
Thank You for your consrtuctive crictisim (sp?) It is very much needed. I'm very bad with commas and where they should go. Next time I'll have my grammar textbook next to me when typing the next chapter. Thanks again! ^^
