Hello, last revision to the prologue, and chapter 1 with this, see ya.


< Insert Standard Disclaimer Here>
 Okay title for now is Choices, yea kind of stupid but that all I can think of at the moment. And C&C is welcome. Please C&C.



Prologue:
<It�s over>, Ash thought with a grim smile.
Around him were dozens of pokemon bodies scattered across the room. And right in front of him was the boss of Team Rocket himself, Giovanni.  �Damn you, why did you have to go kill yourself?�
�I was supposed to make you pay for what you did to my friends.�
He choked it out as memories came to him.
<First the bomb blowing up the Cerulean city gym, killing Misty, finding out it was Giovanni who did just to help his image by making a new gym that he�ll own, and everybody thanking him for lessening the pain caused by the explosion, then he stole pikichu, turning him into some sort of deformed monster, making me the instrument to put him out of her misery. >
�Damn you to hell.�
Ash again choking out the words, barely enough to make a whisper. Suddenly the monitor came to life, on it showed Giovanni face hidden behind shadows.
�After all this time, he still hides his face.� Ash thought, laughing at the same time.
�Well if this video is playing then I must be dead. And by your hands boy. Well congratulations for killing me.� The recording said with no hint of malice or insanity in it voice.  Suddenly the voice became serious, �Well Pokemon Master, you killed me and I think you deserve an award. So I�m transporting you back 8 years, and giving you the choice to stop all the problems that I caused you, goodbye.�
And the world became white.

AN: well this is my first story, plus only a prologue so be gentle.
If you�re wondering how Ash is, he 18. Reason that I have him at
age because well, you'll find out sooner or later. All the things
that happened that Ash was talking about happened at age 14. Also
I�m going to have fun playing with Ash�s love life.
Also I picked time when he was 10 because well the whole idea of this story is about choices, and Geo. Is giving him the chance to stop all this, by giving him years before anything happens.
You may also noticed that this prologue been kind of watered down.


Chapter 1:

�Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!� Ash screamed at the top of his lungs as he went face first on the dirt road.
�Damn that�s hurts.� The young Pokemon Master got up and tried to place his surroundings. <Let�s see now, its look like I�m on the road to Viderian city, and the last thing I remember was helping Giovanni to his after life. Maybe my psychic abilities got me out? Probably not those only work when I�m really mad.�

Flashback:
�Misty? Misty, where are you? Call out if you can hear me!� And then he saw her limp body, her legs blowned off, her arms barley stubs, but her face was the worst of it all, half burned off allowing him to see her skull. �No, no, no, no, no, can�t be, no, why? Missssssssssty!�
That when he his body became white, his eyes going though a vast assortments of colors, first from blue, to red, to violent, then his eyes closed, and he only mouthed the next words, �Solar Flare.�

End Flashback.

<Okay, scratch the psychic ability idea, wait a minute, now I remember, something about a Time Machine? Yhea, that it, now what could the boss of Team Rocket want to send me back to time for, you would think that he use it himself to kill me or something. > Then he looked up on to the road, and gasped at the sight that his eyes have seen.

***

Today was not a good day for young Ash Ketchum, pokemon trainer, he woke up late to get his pokemon, Gray making fun of him, then going into Professor Oak lab, finding out that all three starter pokemon were already taken, that really put down his day. Then having a glimmer of hope, having seen Pikachu been handed to him, which was quickly dashed, when he found out that Pikachu had a really bad temper, and the fact that Pikachu really didn�t liked him that much.
<Yep today is not my day. > Then he saw a certain time traveling person, and could not shake the feelings that his life was going to change. <Who knows, maybe my luck will change. >

�My name is Ash Ketchum, what yours?� (Young) Ash, said to his counterpart. �My name is um��<Let�s see, what do I tell him, name, name, name, Shingo Yabuki, no, um, Mikado Sanzane, nah, to royal sounding. So what I call myself? > �My name is Ranma Saotome (1).�< Oh yhea, like he�ll really believe that. >
 �Hello Ranma,� Ash said with a smile, his newly acquired pokemon still wrapped in a rope.
 �Hi Ash,� �Ranma� said with a forced smile, <Can�t believe I fell for that. >
  �So Ranma, where are you going?� �Nowhere in particular.�<Don�t tell me what I think he�s thinking. > �Well Ranma, since you have nowhere to go, why not come to Viderian City with me.� Ash said with a hope that he won�t be alone on his pokemon journey.
  Before �Ranma� can answer this question, young Ash�s attention was grabbed by the sounds, �pigdey, pigdey.� At the sound of the voice, young Ash Ketchum pulled out his pokedex, opened it up and Dexter spoke out the following message, �Pigdey the bird pokemon, it is a good starter pokemon for beginning trainers.� �Well I�m going to capture it, Pikachu, thunder shock now!� Yet Pikachu did not hear him, or didn�t care and just stood there.
  �Fine then, I get him myself.� Ash scowled and did his trademark hat thing, and threw a poke ball, at the pigdey, and caught him, then the pigdey, got out of the poke ball and did a gust attack which knocked Ash out on his little tush. �Owwww,� and he promptly fainted.
 �Great,� Ranma muttered to himself, might as well take him to the pokemon center in Viderian City. Then he turned to Pikachu, and said, �Come on, let�s go.
  And for some odd reason, the small pokemon felt to compelled to follow him. It was like the pokemon knew him all her life. And so Ranma picked up Ash and went to Viderian City.

End Part 1
