Chapter 2: A Way Out

I heard noises.

They sounded so far away I could barely hear them.

My body felt heavy and difficult to move. I opened my eyes and saw something blurry and red. I blinked to try and see clearly again with no avail. I closed my eyes and tried to listen to make out the noises.

"…dile…"

"….ey…"

"….Totodile!" It was Cyndaquil! He was alive! My eyes snapped opened and I could see big red transparent walls.

"Heeey! Are you Ok?" That was Chikorita, she's alive too!

I turned to their voices, but a white wall blocked my view. I shakily pushed myself up to a sitting position and saw two round objects close to the thing I was in. I rolled onto my knees and pushed myself to my feet. Now I could see Chikorita and Cyndaquil's faces peeking from the inside of round things 'Those are Pokéballs! I don't know how I know this, but that's what these things are!' I ran to the wall of my Pokéball and pressed my nose and paws against the clear, red part of the ball.

Cyndaquil pounded on the clear wall of his Pokéball "You Ok there brother?" He shouted

"You scared us! We thought you were dead!" Chikorita yelled as she put her forepaws on the clear wall of her Pokéball.

"I'm Ok! How are you two?" I shouted, I turned my head away from them for a moment, and then looked back "Do you know what happened? I thought the blackness ate us!"

"We're Ok brother, but I don't know what happened or why we're in these things!" Cyndaquil shouted.

I turned around and looked at our surroundings. Things were different; there were boxes, paper, and a whole mess of things in the big box now! I gasped when I laid my eyes on a human; he wasn't moving nor did he seem to notice us 'What's going on? Why is a human here? Why do I even know what that thing is?'

"He doesn't move!" Chikorita shouted.

I turned and faced her "Doesn't move? What do you mean?"

"He's been like that ever since we woke up!" She shouted back

I trembled with fear 'What's going on here? I want to leave! I don't know where, anywhere but here!' My heart raced and I walked in a panicked circle.

Suddenly, the wall on the top disappeared and an enormous human face was looking at us from the sky. I froze; my mind went blank for a few seconds until I heard Chikorita scream in terror. I snapped my head to her direction and saw her on the opposite side of her Pokeball, cowering in fear.

"MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!!" She bellowed and slumped to the floor of her Pokéball, sobbing.

I turned to Cyndaquil and saw him staring at the huge face in the sky. I turned to the human that was in the box with us. My eyes widened when I saw that there was another human with a big white thing on her head 'Where did that other human come from?'

The two humans stood a few feet away from each other for a moment, and then the taller human ran to some weird small box thing, walked back to the shorter female, and pointed at us. My heart raced 'This can't be good!' My heart sank when the human with the weird thing on her head walked over to us and stood right in front of me. I ran to the opposite end of my Pokéball and curled into a little ball 'Please go away, please leave us alone! I don't want to be eaten!'

To my horror, the female picked up my Pokéball. I scrambled to balance myself from the sudden movement 'Oh no! No, no, no, no, NO!!' I faced the human and hissed. I could hear Chikorita and Cyndaquil yell at the female to put me down and leave us alone, but the human wouldn't listen. Tears formed in my eyes when the huge face in the sky fixed its eyes on me 'T-this is it…I'm g-going to d-die!' I gulped and braced myself.

Suddenly, I felt that strong pulling again but this time, I could see that the thing pulling me was a big red light. Before I could react, the red light engulfed me and shot me out of my Pokeball. I saw the huge things in the box get bigger as the red light started to fade away. I looked up from my laying position and saw that the human holding my Pokéball wasn't so big after all 'But that face in the sky is just as big…' I stared at the huge face and warily got up.

"So! You want the Water Pokémon Totodile?" The tall male asked. I jumped and stared at him 'I-I thought he couldn't talk!'

"Yes" A female voice in my head said. I jumped again and looked around for the source of the voice 'A-am I going crazy?' I put my paws on the sides of my head and squeezed my eyes shut.

"Would you like to nickname your Pokémon?" He asked.

I opened my eyes and turned to him with my paws still on my head 'Nickname?'

"Yes" The voice said, "I'll call him Oliver" The male human nodded and gave the female human a thin red object.

I narrowed my eyes and threw my arms to my sides, "My name isn't Oliver!" I snarled, "My name is….My name…." My eyes widened, I couldn't remember what my name was! I trembled with fear 'Why can't I remember my name? I knew what my name was before…' I gasped, 'That voice in my head! It made me forget my name! But why?'

The female suddenly started to walk away from the male human. I followed her, I don't know why, but I felt that I needed to follow her. I felt guilty walking away from my friends, but I couldn't help myself. We walked past more strange objects and two male humans that were walking back and forth. I stared warily at the two males for a moment, and then turned my attention to the face in the sky 'It's watching us!' I shuddered and walked faster, hoping to somehow shake the human face's attention off of me.

The female human stopped and I bumped into her legs "Sorry!" I gasped. She didn't seem to notice and put a hand on a weird round object stuck to a brown wall. She grasped it, turned it, and pushed the wall open. I could see trees, grass, more humans, and other big boxes.

My jaw dropped 'So there IS a way out of here! I need to tell Chikorita and Cyndaquil!' I turned around, put my paws on either side of my jaw, and took a deep breath. Suddenly, the female human walked out of the box and into the grass. Without thinking, I followed her outside and she shut the brown wall behind us.
