Okey everyone sorry for the long wait here is the first revised chapter for this story. Now for those who are already read this tell me how you think it is from the original and for those of you who just started reading this I hope you enjoy. Please review.

[Past]

Even though I was young I remember when our family was happy. There was my older brother Justin and I and our mother Lily and father Adam both former pokemon trainers. I had wanted to be just like them going on my own journey meeting new people and pokemon. My brother an I would always argue on who would be the best pokemon trainer.

"I think you two would make wonderful pokemon trainers but you must always remember to have faith in your pokemon and yourself" was something my mother would always say. My father was one of the best Neurologist in all of kanto working in Saffron City but even though everyone came to him to preform a surgery he always made time to spend with use we even got to go with him to work a few times.

Though my mother was a stay at home mom she volunteered regularly at the local Pokemon Center helping out Nurse Joy with sick or injured pokemon. She had a vast knowledge on medicine and natural ways of cursing pokemon illnesses. I loved to watch my mother work and toke every word every lesson she taught me to heart.

My favorite memory was when my parent would bring their starter pokemon from the lad. My mother had a Venusaur and my fathers black Charizard. Dad would always take us riding on his Charizard I love the feel of the wind on my face. Moms Venusaur had a special way of making me feel better. She would wrap her vines around lift me up high in the air and rocking me back and forth singing. Yes we where happy but that all soon changed.

It was a few days after my fourth birthday both our parent were away and our neighbor Miss. Jones was watching use when the phone rang. Justin and I were watching a pokemon battle on tv when Miss Jones came back and told us to get our coats.

"Where are we going" I asked her.

"We have to go to the hospital" she told us and put us in the car. The drive was silent all the way to the hospital and the moment we got the it was chaos. There we doctor shouting and running back and forth. We went into the waiting room until a doctor walked over to us.

"Okey you guys stay here I be right back" said Miss Jones as she walked off with the doctor.

"Justin whats going on?" I asked.

"I don't know" he said. We sat and waited for ten minutes before Miss Jones came back with tears in her eye I asked her what was wrong but she just hugged me the. I saw dad heading our way. His eyes were red and puffy from crying.

"Can you gives us a minute" he asked Miss Jones.

"dad what's wrong?" asked Justin when she left.

"Well there was a really bad accident at the pokemon center"he said sitting down.

"Is mommy okey?" I asked.

"No mommy got hurt really bad" He said he graded us and pulled us in a hug. "Mommy's in heaven with grandma now" and with those word I finally understood my mother would not be coming home.

It was a year after my mother death and thing were trying to get back to normal. We had found out that a fire had broke out at the pokemon center but it was still under investigation as to what caused it. It took dad months before he was able to go back to work. There were many people coming in and out of our house checking to make sure we were okey. One woman in particular came to see my dad. She had short black hair with brown eyes named Madison. She was an old friend of his and my mom and a year later they announced they were getting married.

I thought Madison was nice but in my mind I only had one mother. She stayed at homeacting like the sweet and caring step mother but when dad was at work thats when her true colors showed. I was sitting in the living room watching a pokemon battle imaging it was me battles

"Thats going to be me one" I say aloud with a grin on my face.

"A weak little girl like you could never become a pokemon trainer," she said with a sneer "you wouldnt last a day." I turned to see her standing in the doorway.

"I is so my mommy told me I'll be the best pokemon trainer" I glared defended my self.

"Well sorry to break it to you kid but your mother lied to you" She said with smile.

"My mommy would never lie to me she was awsome and im going to be just like her" I say getting angry.

"Well your going to be just as pethetic as she was too" she said with a wicked smile.

"Shut up you stupid ugly wench" I yelled and turned back to her which was a mistake. She grabed a handfull of my hair and lifted me up until my feet barly touched the ground. I started to scream and claw at her hand to let me go.

"Listen here you little bitch," she hissed in my ear," You mother is dead I run this house now and you will show me some respect." She threw me and my head collided with the floor hard. i cried in pain and that was when Justin walked in.

"Jacinda what happend" he said rushing to my side"

"oh dear she was running and she trip and fell Jacinda are you alright" asked Madison with fake concern.

"Come on lets go get you an ice pack" he said carring me to the kitchen. "Are you okey?" he asked. I nodded yes but didnt look up. he wiped off my face with a towl. "Did you really fall" he asked I looked up to see his seirious face then looked behind him to see Madison glaring at me.

"Y-yes i shutterd looking down. He looked behind him but she was already gone. The look in his eyes told me that he didn't believe me but I stayed silent. That was the first day that the abuse started more mental than physical. I would argue and tell her that the thing she said were not true but when you hear thing like your pathetic or you'll never be any good at anything over time you start to believe it. Justin notice my change in demeanor and tried to talk to me but I would pretend that everything was fine. the day he turned eleven he left for his journey.

"I'll miss you little sis" he said hugging me.

"Yeah me too" I smiled.

"In another year your going to be starting your journey" he said with a smile.

"Maybe" I shrugged.

"You will and you'll be great" he said while I avoided his gaze unknowing that he was glaring at Madison. Then he left with his starter pokemon squirtle but what he didn't know is that without him their that year with Madison was worse.

[Present]

It's been a whole year since Justin left for his journey and he would be come home today. I was looking forward to it we didn't talk much while he was away because of a certain someone. Everything with Madison got worse when he left and because dad was always working I suffered In this house. I had bruises on my back and shoulder from yesterday after I supposedly talked back.

"Jacinda" called Madison from down stairs in a sweet voice. I growled and headed down stairs.

"Yes" I simple said.

"I need you to make dinner for when you brother comes home" she simply said handing me a list.

"Is that it" I asked suspiciously but she simply walked off. I was confused until I got to the kitchen. "Dad."

"Hey sweet heart" he said pulling me in a hug catching me off guard.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I took off to welcome Justin home" he said.

"Oh" I say looking down.

"Are you okey?" He said.

"Yeah" I faked a smile

"You know you can tell me anything" he said looking at me.

"I know" I said not able to meet his gaze.

"Okey well hurry back" he said I nodded and left.

"Hey everyone" Justin said as he walked into the house.

"Justin it's so good to see you" Madison said with a smile.

"Yes it's good to be back" He said giving her a quick hug. Behind him walked in his two friends.

"These are my friends May and Arthur" He said moving out of the way to give them a better look.

"It is so nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. White" she grinned holding out her hand. "Same here" mimicked Arthur.

"Oh please call me Maddie" She told them shaking both their hands. "And it's nice to meet you too," added Adam also shaking the hands. "Son how have you been."

"Iv been well dad" Justin said shaking his hand, "Where is Jacinda?"

"Dinner is ready" shouted Jacinda from the dinning room.

"Well that is her so why don't we go eat," announced Maddie. As they walked into the kitchen their noses were filled with a delicious aroma. When they looked at the food, they saw it was pasta.

"Jacinda what happen to what I had on the list," questioned Maddie glaring at her?

"I got this idea when I was in the store" I smirked . That all sat down and dug in.

"Oh my god this is so good. What is this" asked May?

"Pasta carbonara" she replied.

"You know my mom makes this all the time, but it has never tasted like this," said Arthur.

"That because this is my special recipe" I explained.

"Yes Jacinda just insisted on making dinner tonight," said Maddie ignoring the look I gave her. "So tell us about your journey Justin."

"Well I have seven badges, and after I get my eight I will be qualifying for the Indigo plateau" he simply said.

"When will that be" asked his father?

"Not until another three months I thought it would do me some good to come back home and train" replied Justin.

"Are you two going to be fight in the Indigo plateau too?" asked Maddie.

"No I want to be a pokemon researcher like professor Oak," said May. "And I want to be a doctor," added Arthur.

"Well those are too great professions to go into," said Adam.

"What about you, Jacinda are you going to become a pokemon trainer like your brother" asked May?

"I don't know I don't think I'll be that good at it" I say looking down with a sad smile

"What are you talking about you'll be great" said dad but I just shrugged my shoulders I miss the looks shared between my dad and brother.

"Well I think you should" Arthur said with a smile.

"Hey how about when we're done eating we show you all our pokemon" grinned May.

"That's a great idea," said Adam. And with that they all started to eat quickly.

Jacinda pov

When everyone was done eating I gathered up all the plates and put them in the dish washer. After I turned it on, I walked outside to see my brother releasing his pokemon. It out came Blastoise, Nidoking, Primeape, Arcanine, Gengar, and Electabuzz. Next was May's turn with her Butterfree, Jigglypuff, Poliwag, and Eevee. And last was Arthur with his pokemon Zubat and Persian.

"Well with such a powerful pokemon I have no doubt you will win," said dad admiring Justin's pokemon.

"Oh my god your eevee is so cute May" cooed Madison as she cuddled the pokemon to her chest. May's butterfree flew over to me and landed on my head.

"Oh I'm sorry she does that sometimes" apologized May.

"It's no problem at all" I tell her petting butterfree on top of her head. "Arf" came a sound behind me, as I turned around to see Arcanine walking up to me "hey boy" I smiled as I rubbed his ear. Turning to my brother "I see you evolved him."

"Yes I wanted to make sure he was at his strongest for the last gym leader" He said walking up to use, "how have you been?"

"Fine why" I asked eye balling him suspiciously.

"No reason" He said, "You know tomorrow is the day Oak gives out the starter pokemon to new trainers."

"So" I tell him.

"Come on Jacinda ever since we were little we talked about becoming trainers" whispered Justin.

"Yeah well things change" I growled glaring at my step mother as she was telling May how cute her Jigglypuff was.

"If you change your mind meet me out here at midnight" with that been said he walked away. I stared after him not noticing my father's eyes on us.

"Oh my I did not realize it got this late" said Maddie looking at the time to see that it was 10:00 pm.

"Is it okey if we stay here the night" asked May?

"Of course we have plenty of spare room alright everyone time for bed" she said. Justin, May, And Arthur put pokemon their back in their balles and headed for the house. I said goodnight to both of May and Arthur and headed for my room. I fell face first on my bed 'What should I do' I began to think back to what my brother said. 'I do want to be a trainer I'm afraid' Then there was a knock on the door. "Come in" I tell them not sure who it is. I turned my head to see my dad walking in "dad." But instead of saying anything he walks and sits on my bed. I get up and sit next to him. We sat there in silences for the longest time before he finally spoke.

"I sorry" He said.

"Why are you apologizing?" I asked.

"Because if I had been here more I would have seen these changes in you" he said looking at me.

"Dad I'm fine" I try to reassure him.

"No your not please talk to me" he begged "why do you doubt yourself?" I was going to answer but I them thought of all the things Maddison told me.

"What if I'm no good?" I asked with my head down.

"What happened to that strong five year old who told me they will be the best trainer I the world?" he asked. "I miss that little girl." I looked into his eyes and remembered how I was before everything changed. How I would dream of pokemon wanting to see them all I still want that. Dad smiled when he saw the longing I had in my eyes. It vanished when he pulled me in a hug causing me to gasp in pain."What wrong did I hurt you?" I remember I still had the bruises from last night.

"I fine" I say.

"Is it your back" he tried to turn me around to have a look but I stopped him.

"I fell yesterday but in fine" I quickly say looking away.I new if he saw he could tell the difference from a fall to a leather belt wound.

"It eleven forty you got twenty minutes to get ready" he smiled when I looked confused. "Your bother is waiting outside." I nodded I was still not sure but I headed to my closet to get a change of clothes and else I would need anything. My dad hanging me my backpack with my toothbrush and mouthwash already in it. I nodded signaling that I was ready and we head downstairs to the front door. We walked out to see Justin and Arcanine waiting on us.

"You won't make it on foot and be on time so Arcanine will take you" he informed.

"Thank you Justin" I say giving him a hug that he helped climb onto Arcanine's back.

"Be safe" my dad said I nodded and we took off through the night.
