EoS: Well, here it is! The much anticipated X and Y story, in the Kalos region! In fact, this story was so anticipated, I couldn't help but jump the gun a little at posting it! Instead of updating the Alaude story, I've decided to post the first chapter of this story, and see the responses to it. However, I won't be updating this until December 1st, because I want to see the responses of the readers to it. So, review!

Lauren: Let me interpret: He's lazy, he had this prewritten, and wants to get a day off from having to write.

Archer's Moemon Adventure

Chapter 1

When I was a little girl, my dad used to read me a story. This story told of a beautiful princess who was captured by an evil monster and held in a prison in a tall tower. To save her, a legendary hero assembled a team of powerful warriors: A Berserker, a Thief, a Tank, a Fighter, a Black Mage, a White Mage, a Green Mage, a Dancer, and a Sword Master. When I was young, I used to love that story, but I never knew that it would one day shape my future.

"Miss!" Nancy was staring out over the deck of a ship. She was wearing a black sleeveless top and was holding a pink bag. She had light pink hair that reached far down her shoulders, and wore a red hat on her head. She had shiny blue eyes, and a soft smile.

"Yes?" Nancy asked, turning back to the sailor, who blushed as he looked at her.

"Um, this is yours, right? You dropped it." The sailor, flustered, held out his hand, a ring of seven keys in his hand.

"Why yes, thank you." Nancy said, smiling. She took the keys from him.

"We'll be landing in Coumarine City soon." The sailor said, walking off.

The boat pulled up to the pier, the sailors helping Nancy off.

"So, you traveled here all the way from Unova, do you have some sort of business here?" The captain asked.

"Yes." Nancy said, nodding. "I've come to learn about my family."

"Well, have a nice time, ma'am." The captain said, nodding. Nancy turned, picked up her suitcase, and walked down the pier.

"Hello, you're Nancy, correct?" Nancy turned to see a man standing in front of her, smiling. He wore a white lab coat over a purple shirt and black pants, and had wavy black hair and grey eyes.

"Yes." Nancy said, smiling. "Are you Professor Sycamore?"

"You know it." The man said, smiling. "I'm here to guide you to my lab."

"Awesome!" Nancy said, smiling.

"Now, Riza, come on out!" Professor Sycamore said, tossing out a moeball, which a Charizard emerged from. She wore an orange shirt and orange skirt, and had orange wings sticking out of her back and an orange tail with flames burning on the tip. She had orange hair down her back, jutting out in two places, and fiery blue eyes.

"Now, hold on tight!" Sycamore said, smiling, the Charizard wrapping her arms around Nancy, flying her through the air, Nancy crying out in terror. The Charizard flew through the sky, Nancy staring down at the Kalos region in awe as she held onto her hat.

"Here we are!" Riza said, landing on the ground, releasing Nancy from her grip. The two were standing in front of a massive gate in a large wall.

"Is this the lab?"

"Not exactly." Riza said, shaking her head. She handed Nancy a small tablet item.

"What's this?" Nancy asked, frowning.

"Press this button." Riza said, pointing to a large button under the screen. Nancy pressed it, and Professor Sycamore appeared as a hologram from the screen.

"Whoa!" Nancy said, surprised.

"Surprised?" Professor Sycamore asked, smiling. "This is the Holo Caster, the newest thing from Lysandre Labs! With this you can communicate with anyone by holographic projection!"

"Professor, where's your lab?" Nancy asked, confused.

"Ah, yes, Nancy, I was going to send you to my lab, but instead I decided that it would be easier for you to go on an adventure of your own from this small town, like any protagonist!"

"B-But I don't have any moemon!" Nancy said, flustered.

"…So you're helpless?" Professor Sycamore asked, surprised.

"Well… Not exactly…" Nancy said, looking at her key ring.

"Well, this still works out great." Professor Sycamore said, smirking. "You see, there are several children in this small town that were going to receive a moemon from me. However, I'm certain that there are a few that would be willing to escort you to my lab so you can help me with my research! Just tell them I sent you! Sycamore out!"

"Wait!" Nancy said, but the hologram disappeared.

"Well, good luck with that." Riza said, smiling. She flew into the air, leaving Nancy alone.

"What am I going to do, guys?" Nancy asked, looking down at her keys, frowning.

Nancy turned and walked towards the gate, but the gate swung open in front of her, a young man stepping out, smiling confidently.

"Oh, hello…" Nancy said, blushing. The teen wore a blue shirt with long sleeves and brown pants, and wore a red hat on top of long black hair combed straight. He had piercing black eyes, and smile.

"Hello there!" The girl next to him said, smiling. She had curly orange hair and a freckled face, and she wore a black dress with orange trim. She had sparkling amber eyes, and a cheerful smile. "Who might you be?"

"I-I'm Nancy." Nancy said, smiling. "Professor Sycamore said that I should look for children in this town. Where exactly am I, by the way? Cause I'm kind of lost…"

"…Why is he asking you to look for children?" The boy asked, suspicious.

"Oh, it's nothing suspicious!" Nancy said, embarrassed, her face flustering. "I was just hoping I could get some escorts to the professors' lab in… Um… Which city was it?"

"You must be new to the region, huh?" The boy asked, grinning. "I'm Archer. And this is Ariel, my friend."

"Yeah, I'm new alright." Nancy said, nodding. "Actually, a friend of my dad told me I should come to the Kalos region. See, my family was originally from here, so she thought I could help her out."

"Well, if you need an escort, you can count on me." Archer said, grinning. "After all, I'm the best trainer in Vaniville Town!"

"…Right, and Vaniville Town would be…?" Nancy asked, smiling.

"This town right here." Archer said, smiling, Nancy nodding sheepishly.

"Thanks." Nancy said, smiling. "You know, you remind me of a boy I used to know back home."

"Really?" Archer asked, smiling. "Well, I'll consider that a compliment."

"Don't, he was kind of an idiot." Nancy said, laughing.

"Oh, I see…" Archer said, looking down, frowning.

"It was sweet of you to volunteer to help guide me through the region." Nancy said, smiling. "Can I see your moemon?"

"…Well, actually, I'm getting my first moemon today from the professor." Archer said, smiling sheepishly.

"…So, you're the strongest trainer, huh?" Nancy smirked.

"Hey, I will be, okay?" Archer said, frowning. "I used to win all the time when I used my mom's Rhyhorn!"

"Okay." Nancy said, smiling.

"Well, it's nice to meet you, again." Archer said, holding his hand up.

"Wait, don't do that!" Nancy said, but it was too late.

Nancy's keys began to glow, and a figure emerged from them.

"You, who threaten our lady, prepare to die!" A Sigilyph hovered in front of Nancy, glaring at Archer. She wore a black and green striped dress with yellow, blue, and red ribbons sticking out of the back, and two large yellow, blue, and red striped wings sticking out of her back. She had long black hair falling down her black, and a cold glare from her blue eyes.

"Whoa!" Archer said, stumbling back.

"I am Lucifer the Prideful. I am a Sigilyph." Lucifer said, frowning. "My master gave me the order to protect this girl with my life. I cannot let you threaten her!"

"He's not threatening me!" Nancy said, embarrassed. "He's my new friend!"

"I see…" Lucifer said, frowning. "Still, I shall observe you, and I'll know the truth. My eyes can see through your intentions."

"…But can you see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?" Ariel asked, frowning suspiciously, Archer hitting her over the head.

"I shall remain by her side." Lucifer said, disappearing into the key. "I shall be watching you."

"Well, leaving that aside, what do you say?" Archer asked, grinning. "It's time to head out on our adventure!"

EoS: So, what do you think? BTW, I just finished using Masuda Method to get a shiny Ralts with perfect stats and nature, so I'm happy.

Lauren: It's the little things that make your life so pathetic.
