Part 0.5: The Story Begins
========================================================================

* Pallet Town *

A young boy with short black hair and wearing a billed cap with a symbol
on it entered the lab of Dr. Okido,local Pok�mon researcher. "Ah,Okido-
sensei?" asked the boy. "Did you ask to see me?"

"Ah,Satoshi-kun!" said the white-haired doctor. Even though he was about
50 years old,he looked to be about 25 with his face. "I am glad you came
here. I wanted to talk privately to you about something."

"Go ahead," said Satoshi,who sat down.

"Well," said Okido. "Recently,I got a letter from an old acquaintance
of mine,Tayuki Mizuno. She is a pediatrician in Tokyo,Japan."

"Sugoi!" said Satoshi. "So,why am I here? To listen to your letter?"

"Iie," said Okido. "Mizuno-san asked me to spend a few months in Tokyo
and tour the city schools,teaching children about Pok�mon." Pikachu
entered and rested on Satoshi's lap as Okido spoke. "However,I cannot
come because I have pressing matters. Therefore...why not you?"

"Me?" asked Satoshi. "But why?"

"Well,I could tell a lot things about Pok�mon," said Okido. "But this
wouldn't really teach anything. A Pok�mon League member would be able to 
teach the people of Tokyo how to handle these creatures. And since you
did very well in the League competition..."

"Don't praise me," said Satoshi modestly. "That was a year ago,and I
only won by luck because my rival dropped out in the last battle."

"Hai,but you show compassion to Pok�mon,and that makes you a perfect
teacher. That way,the people of Tokyo,if they decide to keep Pok�mon,
will know how to treat them. I do not want a good trainer,but one who
knows his Pok�mon,and with Pikachu,you have shown great love."

"Pika pika?" asked Pikachu,waking up.

"Yeah,me and Pikachu are the closest friends," said Satoshi,smiling.

Just then,a girl with a shock of red hair came in. Her name was Kasumi,
but to avoid confusion with any other Kasumi,she got the nickname Misty.
"Ohayo,Okido-sensei!" she said. "I heard you were talking about travel."

"Yes," said Okido. He then had an idea. "Kasumi-chan,you will go with
Satoshi-kun." This elicited a gasp of horror from said boy.

"HER?! That baka otemba?!" shouted Satoshi.

"Who's the otemba?!" shouted Misty.

"No,it is quite a good idea," said Okido. "Kasumi,you are one of the
Gym Leaders of Haneda City,ne?" Misty nodded. "So,it will be a good idea
to send a Gym Leader too,so that he or she can talk about the gyms."

"But can't you send someone else? Takeshi-san maybe?" asked Satoshi.

"Gomen nasai,Satoshi," said Okido. "But you can't ask the other Gym
Leaders to drop everything and go to Japan! Takeshi and his fellows
are all busy now cleaning up for the next tournament. Besides,you and
Kasumi have a record of traveling."

"But she was bugging me all the way!" shouted Satoshi.

"Oh stop it," said Misty. "I'm sticking to you like glue until you
pay up for that bike you ruined!" She shook her fist at him.

"Okay,you can come,but don't embarrass me," said Satoshi with a sigh.

"Pika pika," sighed Pikachu.

"Aye yai yai..." said Okido. "So,it's settled then. Satoshi and Kasumi,
you will be taking a carriage to the valley of Jusenkyo,then you will
be guided to Peking,where a plane will take you to Tokyo. You two will
be staying with Mizuno-san for the five months you'll be there."

"Okay," said Misty.

"Well,better get packed," said Satoshi.

==+==

"Will you be okay?" asked Satoshi's mother,Jiera. She had long brown 
hair in a ponytail and wore casual clothing.

"Hai,okasan," said Satoshi. "Misty'll be with me,and Pikachu. Everything
will be okay. Mother,I love you." He hugged her.

"You are a nice boy," said Jiera. "Not like your father. He ran off like
a coward. I don't know why,but he was so strange." She took a golden
medallion which showed a picture of Satoshi and his father. "Your father
was a very pitiful man. Did I ever tell you about him?"

"No," said Satoshi,sitting. "Talk to me. I want to know about my dad."

Jiera sighed and sat down. "His name was Genma and he was a very rude
man. I married him because he was handsome,and nice. But after he bore
you,he tried to take you away from me. I got so angry,I called my father
and he used his Pok�mon to drive the bastard our house. No way was I
giving my only child to a scum like him." She covered her face.

"I do not remember this," said Satoshi.

"You were only three at the time," stated Jiera. "He was trying to take
you back to Japan,his home. I told him firmly that I would never go to
Japan,nor would I let my sons go to Japan. He told me that he was a
martial artist and wanted to train you in his arts. I said you would
train in Pok�mon,and not in fighting! Then he kidnapped you,but I called
on my father,who was in Haneda,and we both used the power of the Pok�mon to drive that son of a bitch from our land."

"That scum," said Satoshi,shaking his head. "I am glad you told me. I
hope that,if I meet my father,I will knock sense into him."

"He may not be alive," said Jiera. Just then,Misty came in.

"Coming,Satoshi?" asked Misty.

"Sure," said Satoshi. "Sayonara,okasan. Come on,Pikachu."

"Pikachu," said the yellow mouse with brown ears and a jagged tail.
He leapt onto Satoshi's backpack and curled up.

"Farewell,son," said Jiera as she saw his son leaving again.

==+==

The two teenagers made their way through the forests to Haneda City,
where a carriage to Jusenkyo would be. "Glad to be on the road again?"
asked Misty softly. She smiled a bit. She did like him,but didn't want
anyone to know that. She would be so embarrassed!

"Hai," said Satoshi,scratching Pikachu behind the ears. "So,are you
really coming because you want to stick to me like glue?"

Misty blushed. "O-Of course!" said the girl. "What makes you think
otherwise? You know I won't let you forget my bike!"

"Ah,just like the tomboy," teased Satoshi.

"You had better start running!" shouted Misty. Just then,the sky
grew dark. Misty looked up briefly. "Oh look! An eclipse!"

"Awesome!" said Satoshi. "I heard that weird things happen then."

"Don't be such a baka," said Misty. "That's superstition!"

==+==

In Tokyo,in a dark room,a pale boy wearing black was meditating over
a pentagram. He had two candles strapped to his head. His name was
Hikaru Gosunguki,and he was dabbling in black magic...again.

"This time,I have the magic to destroy you,Saotome Ranma," hissed
the ghost-like boy. "Then Tendo Akane will be mine!" He began to
chant dark words of black devil magic over the pentagram,which was
strewn with wax and other debris. The lines glowed banefully.

Without warning,a mist formed in the room and the temperature shot
to freezing. A sinister laughter filled the air as the mist entered
Gosunguki and took over his mind and soul. The boy's eyes snapped
open to reveal blood-red embers in them.

"Foolish human..." hissed Gosunguki,who was now possessed. "Soon,
I will have everything...ha ha ha..." A foul wind blew in the room.
