《Re: Pokemon Red》 Rewrite: Prologue He was biking down the street he always goes down after a long day at work. He has his Nintendo Switch in one hand while steering with the other and is playing the new Pokemon Sword and Shield. ''Still can''t believe they didn''t put all the pokemon in this game. I mean come on i know it isn''t THAT hard!'' The young man grumbles as he continues to walk home and he fails to notice the truck that''s been stalking him from behind. Suddenly the young man gets a cold shiver down his spine and looks around feeling like he''s being watched. Finally looking behind him he sees the truck as it''s just sitting there. ''Weird i didn''t pass a truck.'' The young man pockets his Switch and continues on the road. But still has that feeling of being watched. As he continues on he looks over his shoulder at the truck and sees it keeping up with him. Seeing this he stops and tries to confront the truck driver. ''Hey man, you following me?!'' There''s no reply from the truck. ''Hey you hear me or-'' After taking a good look at the driver side he notices something missing. Mainly a driver. ''Eh? No... no no no.... Cant be.... Truck-kun?'' As if confirming the lights of the truck go on and off a couple of times. ''.....NOPE!'' He starts peddling hard to get away from this famous murderer. ''NOPE NOPE NOPE! Not getting reincarnated today no thanks. Still, haven''t finished Sword and Shield yet so nooo thank you.'' Peeking over his shoulder to see if the truck is coming and sees it barreling towards him faster than he can peddle. Turns out trucks are faster than bikes. As they''re coming up on a bridge he remembers a small ramp and takes it just barely avoiding getting reincarnated. Riding the ramp he gets to the bottom of an empty canal he stops and looks up to Truck-kun. ''Yea what now Truck-kun? Can''t reach me now can you?'' Truck-kun backs up out of sight and the young man feels victorious. But the hears the revving and roar of an engine and then sees Truck-kun hauling ass over the bridge and make a sudden turn. Crashing into the concrete barrier Truck-kun sores through the air and lands perfectly on all four tires. Seeing this he starts again peddling for dear life. ''The hell Truck-kun this isnt Terminator damn it!'' Suddenly Truck-kun blares it''s horns to the tune of the famous movie ''You got the be kidding me!'' Truck-kun easily closes the distance and in right on him ''Truck-kun please noooo-'' Finally. Truck-kun captured its prey. More like painted his prey on the ground. The last thing the young man sees is a bumper sticker as Truck-kun drives off, looking to reincarnate its next victim. ''Say hello to Kami-sama Bitch.'' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Somewhere~Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation. "Where is this?" His consciousness awake to the darkness of some void. "Soooo I''m dead? Shit, this suuuuuucks!'' If the young man had a physical form and was near a wall he would no doubt be bashing his head against it right now. "Sigh. Welp guess it''s time to find out life''s greatest mystery. Whats after death I wonder?" He waits. And waits. "Ok now come on really? Don''t tell me this is really it? GOD, YOU THERE?!" Nothing. "SATAN HOW BOUT YOU?!" Again nothing. "Damn it. ANYONE?!"
Hello and welcome to the reincarnation system please wait while we finish connecting you to the system.
"Wha?!"

Reincarnation is normal for all souls as they normally into the cycle of reincarnation and are recycled back into the world, however, it''s extremely rare for a soul to have this system.
"Why is it rare"
The creators of this system, the Gods set a very specific condition for the system to activate and install.
"Whats the condition?"
To be killed by a truck. Apparently the creators are fond of reincarnation novels.
"...Seriously... Ok putting that aside. What does the system do anyway?"

''Really from who?''
From Truck-kun. Apparently he really loved reenacting his most favorite scene ever.
Thanks to this endorsement you are allowed to request the kind of world you wish to reincarnate into.
"SWEET! I take it back Truck-kun you are awsome! I want to be reincarnated into the Pokemon world from the Pokemon game Red as Red. But the World needs to be more mature and real world. At least to my worlds standard."

Skills and abilities adjusted and set. Thank you for waiting your world has been found and you are now being reincarnated. We hope you have a happy new life and wish you luck in your new world.
The young man''s consciousness fades after that. ``````````````````````````````` (Somewhere in the multiverse) A being of immense beauty and power sigh''s as it lays on a couch in a pose unbefitting of beauty such as it. ''By the Creator I''m so bored. BORED!! SOMEONE SAVE MEEEE!!'' (???) The being flails around in a tantrum. Even during this tantrum, the being doesn''t lose it''s beauty and any man or even woman would be stricken with infatuation upon laying eyes on it. ''I can''t believe I''m still stuck here tending to this backwater world. That asshole i sent down should have fixed things but nooooo he had to go and-'' (???) A beeping sound rings out across the space the being is in and startles it. ''Wha-! What now?!'' (???) The being gets up and walks over to a console that wasn''t there previously and clicks a few buttons. It reads a few lines and begins to laugh.... maniacally. ''YES!! FINALLY! A soul actually requested this world to reincarnate into! Okay let''s look at his info and see what skills he requested.'' (???) The being looks threw the souls info and starts laughing even more. ''Perfect! PERFECT!! Just what i needed to be relieved of this boredom and maybe actually get out of this shitty job and fix this damn world! Let''s make thing''s interesting by giving him my blessing.'' (???) The being puts it''s hand on the console and its hand starts to glow. ''Be thankful boy. This Goddess is going to help make your life interesting. Now entertain me and then fix the world while you''re at it!'' (Goddess) The Goddess starts laughing maniacally once again. May the multiverse have pity on the poor soul.... Rewrite: Chapter 1: The birth of Red There''s a warm feeling. Kinda feels nice. What''s that thumping noise? ...wait...
Reincarnation successful. Time to birth 00:10. This might be slightly traumatizing. Have a happy birth!
Sonuva! I knew it! Now there''s a pressure all around me pushing me and now a blinding light. The first thing I see is HOLY FREAKING MILKCOW IT''S A FRIGGIN CHANSEY! "Chan Chansey" The Chansey wraps me up and wobbles over the table and hands me to someone who I believe is my mother. "Chan Chan" "Haa thank you dear haa" She''s panting some more than likely due to just giving birth to me. "Oh, my baby boy. I''ve waited so long to meet you. I can''t wait to see how you grow." The woman in front of me is drenched in sweat and breathing hard but a kind motherly look. Well, she did just give birth to her child. She is incredibly beautiful. She has long brown hair and blue eyes. She keeps me in her arms and just stares at me for what seems an hour before a nurse comes in and takes me away and tells her to rest. They take me into a room and look me over probably making sure I''m healthy. They strap a blue wristband on my set in a crib next to another baby, a girl from the looks of it judging from the pink wristband on her.If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. She''s actually got a little bit of her hair which is red. She''s wiggling around crying her lungs out and its just annoying. Hmm, let''s try to use observe skill. Observe!
Name: Scarlett ??? Age:0 Trainer Type: None Title: ??? ??? Skills: ??? ??? ??? ??? ???
So her name is Scarlett. I actually really like that name. Oh, she''s still crying. Hmmm, what to do. She''s too young and underdeveloped for me to use any kind of psychic abilities on her and I haven''t really trained or developed them yet. Well, maybe charm will work. Charm!
Charm resisted
What?! How?! She stops crying and looks over at me. With a look curiosity in her eyes, she just looks at me. Seriously how did it fail? Whats with all these question marks? Am i just not a high enough skill level or something? We stay here for a couple hours just staring at each other before a nurse Chansey comes in takes Scarlett away. As they leave the room I hear her start crying again. A little bit after that I fall asleep. I wake up when I feel someone pick me up and carry me out. A couple minutes later we arrive in a room and I see my mom and she looks a lot better after resting. The nurse Chansey hands me over to my mom. "Hello again my baby boy. Mama had to rest a bit after having you." She rocks me up and down and hums a song. "Oh, i almost forgot to tell you your name. How do you like the name Red? I can''t wait to see how great you become and see all the great thing you do." I fall asleep in her arms listening to her sing. Chapter 2 Quests already? Do you know what sucks? Being a newborn baby..... My ability to make even simple movements is nonexistent. Sleeping is the only thing I do. I can look around a bit but there''s really nothing to see as I lay in the hospital crib. Occasionally a nurse or doctor will visit the maternity ward and check up on all the babies in the room. I noticed the nurses tend to "check-up" on me more than necessary. A couple of times a group of them would actually come in and gather around me saying things like "so cute", "adorable", and "Future ladykiller". I don''t mind the fact I am getting attention from the nurses but I''m pretty sure I heard one of them say "delicious"... Am I in danger? Seriously I''m just a baby amongst many why am I attracting all this attention? Thankfully I was saved by a doctor''s routinely check-up. Shortly after the doctor shooed away the nurses I was retrieved by another nurse and taken to see my mother. "Good morning my sweet Red looks like the doctor''s have cleared us to go home. Were just waiting for them to get our transportation ready." (Mother) An hour later they finally arrived to pick us up and took us down to the courtesy transport van to take us home. But as soon as we got out of the hospital I got a blue screen in my face.
Main Quest: Grow the fuck up!
Objective: Turn 18 years of age.
You are finally out of that boring ass hospital and now its time to see the world, the sights and all the beautiful ladies that are just waiting for you. But wait... Your just a baby?! How are you going to see the world as a baby?! Well, the short answer is you don''t. You go wherever the hell your mother will bring you to. You''ll be lucky to go on a trip to the shopping center as you are now. Although your chances with the ladies are still good. Buuuut if they tried anything with you they would end up in jail sooooo... Ok so yea your chances with the ladies are not great either. So you know what you need to do? Grow the fuck up!! Please : p
Reward: IDK ill think of something by then.
...... ............. I have... soooo many questions. I remember I was supposed to get quests occasionally from some sort of administrator. As I''m thinking this we get in the van and head off towards home. Unfortunately, I don''t get much chance to think more on the quest before I end up falling asleep. Sometime later I wake up and notice I''m in a room instead of a van. Looking around as best I can it looks like I''m in a hotel room and I''m on the bed wrapped up in a blanket. I notice that mom is not far and is sitting on the bed with a laptop in her lap. Looks like she''s really into whatever she''s doing on there. Then I feel the hunger that I was ignoring since I woke up get worse. Geez can''t even feed myself so I guess the only thing I can do is-
Side Quest: Feeding time!
Objective: Suckle upon thine mothers teets!
Let''s face it. You''re a baby. And your not got to be able to order yourself some pizza for a while. So your options are limited. Thankfully it just so happens you mother is a total MILF. And she is raring to go with the breast milk. Unfortunately for you, she is your mother so let''s not get too happy here. I mean not to be culturally insensitive here there are some cultures out there that''s ok with the whole incest thing and believe me I''ve seen a one to many. We usually think of those people as sick in the head. But I''m getting off-topic here. Have fun feeding!! I''m a bit jealous :pEnsure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.
Reward: +1 Skill rank up of your choice.
Ok, now I know someone is screwing with me! What the hell kind of quest is this?! I mean I know there isn''t really any other way to feed myself. Damn it... If I''m going to be doing it anyway might as well get rewarded for it. I start crying due to hunger. Honestly, I was holding back for a bit now against my little baby instincts telling me to cry for food. "Awww is my sweet Red ready to have some milk? Come hear dear." (Mother) She reaches over and picks me up and lays me in her lap and then takes her shirt off completely. I would like to say something about modesty but she''s a mother alone with her baby in a room. "I''m glad you finally cried out in hunger you were starting to worry me. Mommas breasts are so full of milk that there starting to hurt." (Mother) Honestly, if she wasn''t my mother I would be salivating right now. Her skin is perfect without any blemishes. Her breasts are not very big but are perfect in there own way. Her stomach is toned like she works out. Looking at her arms confirms that she works out as there''s a good deal of muscle there. Not a bodybuilders kind of muscles but someone who is used to a physical style of lifestyle. Makes me wonder what she does for a living. Lifting me up she cradles me right in front of her breasts. Instinctually I go right into feeding mode and start sucking. "My my you were really hungry, weren''t you? You went almost a whole day without eating and its almost time for bed. We still have a couple more days until we get home. I hope you like our new home. It''s a bit out of the way from the bigger cities. It''s called Palette town. It''s a quiet small town with barely five thousand people. I even heard a pokemon professor just moved there recently with his family. I hope you can make a lot of friends as you grow." (Mother) After a few minutes, I finished eating. Mom lifted me up to her shoulder and patted me on to back a few times. "Burp"
Quest complete!
You may not know this but mothers who breastfeed their newborns become closer to them over the course of there life. Not to mention its healthy. No doubt you''re embarrassed from having to breastfeed for the first time. But you''ll need to learn to tolerate it for a while until since your just a baby. Still jealous though :p
Reward gained:+1 Skill rank up of your choice.
The blue box is right. I don''t like it but it''s right. I have to get used to the fact that I have to cry for food and not go on the computer and order a pizza. Wait... Is there even pizza in this world?! Nooooo, please tell me there''s pizza in this world! Mom lays me down in front of her and just stare at me for a while. The look she has is one of pure motherly joy. "Red. I''m so glad you came to me. So happy your apart of my life now. Momma has had it hard for a while and was almost about to give up until you came to me. I''ll help you grow into a strong, smart and handsome young man. You''ll even probably be surrounded by beautiful women. I might have to shoo a few off. But if you choose a good First you won''t need me to. Then you''ll move away and start your own family somewhere. Then... I''ll be lonely again" (Mother) Mom gets a sad look in her eyes but doesn''t stop smiling. I''ll have to make a mental note that when I do finally settle down that she''s not far. I wonder what she has been through to cause her to be lonely. Is it because of my Dad? I never saw anyone who could be considered my dad at the hospital. Hmmm. Now that I think about it if I become champion I imagine I get plenty of wealth and power. I''ll just build a house for us to be live in. Then she won''t be lonely if she''s helping me raise my kids. Also from the way she sounded it was like she expected me to have a relationship with multiple women. Is polygamy allowed in this world? "But that''s enough about sad things. It''s going to be nothing but happy days from now on now that you''re here with me. We are going to have such good times ahead. I guarantee it. Now. Its time for bed. We have another long drive tomorrow and a shorter drive after that. Then we will be at our new home." (Mother) She picks me up and sets me in a crib. I feel myself dozing off as soon as I''m in. Mom leans in and kisses my forehead. "Sweet dreams Red. Sweet dreams" (Mother) Sleep takes me. The next day is a blur as all I did was sleep, eat and go right back to sleep. I also received another quest. This time to have my diaper changed by my mom for the first time. It wasn''t a fun experience. I had forgotten that was a thing that I was also unable to do on my own. At least I got another skill point. I did decide to hoard up the skill points I gain until I''m older. Better to use them when I have a large amount of skill to use them with. As I imagine some skills are going to be a pain to improve on their own. Finally, the last day of the drive and I''m awoken by the van door opening. Mom steps outside with me in her arms. It looks to be about midday but couldn''t tell for sure. In front of us is a two-story house. It''s actually a nice-looking house for its size. Its got a white picket fence all along the front yard. Has a garden area right in front of the porch. The porch looks like it goes along the whole house. The second story even has a patio. "Here we are Red. Home sweet home" (Mother) Home huh. I think I like this house. Chapter 3 Making a friend Seven years have passed and I''m now seven years old. Not a lot has happened that''s worthy of note other than learning to walk and talk. I''ve also completed a few more quests and have a nice stache of skill points I have saved up. A few were... questionable. I still think someone is screwing with me. Mom has been quite doting on me ever since I learned to talk. She broke a plate when I called her "momma" for the first time. She spent the rest of the day trying to get me to continue to say "momma". She even saved it to her phone... I''ve caught her a few times listening to the recording in her room... I''ve learned a few things about this world since being born. Mainly that not everything revolves around Pokemon. The technology level is all over the place. I''ve seen cell phones from the early 2000s and smartphones that have features that look like they haven''t even been invented yet back in my old world. I''ve seen computers that look ancient while at the same time I''ve seen those new ultra-thin laptops. Cars even back in the old world were a mixed bag but cars here look like they are more futuristic compared to my old world. And they are all-electric as well. I looked into it and it turns out this world has no fossil fuels to speak of. Which leads me to believe this world is much much younger than my previous world. I also started school last year. Much of school remains the same. I also found this douchebag.
Name: Blue Oak Age:7 Sex: Male Trainer Type: None Titles: Grandson of the Professor, Troublemaker, Bully Skills: Cooking 1 Running 2 Pokemon Knowledge 4 Trap setting 2 Charisma 1
Not even ten years old and he''s already being the asshat he''s known to be. He''s already the class bully and has a small group of followers and kissasses. I''ve seen him a few times bulling kids out of lunch money and other things. Truly an asshat. On the way home one day I saw asshat and his groupies crowding around something on the road to making a ruckus so I got a little closer to see what there crowding around. As I get closer I hear them yelling "Giant" several times. I''m finally a few feet away and I can finally see what there crowding around. It''s a girl. She''s on her knees with her hands on her head and shaking. Poor girl must be scared out of her mind with all these guys around her yelling at her.
Quest Received: Save the bullied girl!
Seriously. NO ONE likes bullies. Doesn''t matter what world you''re in. Save the poor girl from these clowns. Maybe you''ll finally make a friend.
Reward: 5 skill points
Now, this is a quest I can get behind. But that reward... looks like the System Admin REALLY doesn''t like bullies. Welp lets get the show on the road. "Now this is a new low even for you " (Red) Hearing the new voice the kids turn around scared at first but probably realizing I''m not an adult the kids visibly relax but then look annoyed. "What did you say punk? Come over here and say that." (Blue) Walking over I passed a couple of his flunkies and I get right up into blue''s face. He obviously wasn''t expecting me to actually do it as he looks unnerved but he can''t show weakness in front of his flunkies.This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. "I said. This is a new low even for you." (Red)
New Skill Gained: Intimidation
Blue start getting... well... blue in the face and takes a step back. Perfect timing to get that skill. It''s only at the first but Blue is just a 7 year old like me so it shouldn''t really take much. "Tch. Let''s go, boys, this just stopped being fun. Smell ya later loser! Have fun with the giant!" (Blue) I watched them run off and noticed blue was slightly faster than the rest. Smirking a little to my self I hear a soft voice. "Thank you" (???) Looking over I see where the voice came from. The girl still on her knee''s on the ground was looking up at me with her hands still on her head.
Quest Completed!
You saved the adorable girl! She''s been through a lot so please take good care of her. You both need friends and yall should be just great friends!!
Reward received: 5 skill points
I just smile and offer her a hand to help her up. "Come on let''s get you off the dirt." (Red) She looks at my hand and nervously takes it and I pull her up. I was wondering why they were calling her a giant and only now that she is standing up to her full height do I understand why. She''s a full head and a half taller than me. I''m pretty darn average when it comes to height at my age but she must have had a growth spurt early. Wonder how much taller she is going to get before she stops growing. I can imagine she has issues with her height at her age. The state she was in when they were bullying her kinda confirms it. I should be careful to not mention her height. "Wow you are pretty tall" (Red) Damn you brain!! She starts getting teary-eyed and starts sniffing like she''s about to cry. Quick defuse the bomb!! "Wait don''t cry! I think it''s cool your so tall!" (Red) "R-really?" (???) "Yea. I wish I was as tall as you! Being tall is great!" (Red) "T-there''s nothing great being t-tall." (???) "Of course there is. You can reach higher places. You can see over others. And you can easily intimidate others. Though that last one doesn''t seem to work on those guys. Strength in numbers and all." (Red) The tall girl just stares at me unblinkingly. She opens and closes her mouth likely she''s trying to say something but she can''t get it out. Guess it''s up to me to move the ball forward. "My name is Red. What''s yours?" (Red) "Ah, m-my name? I-it''s Copper." (Copper) "It''s good to meet you, Copper." (Red) I hold my hand out for a handshake and she slowly and nervously takes my hand and we shake hands. I noticed when I helped her up before but her hand''s are not as smooth as I was expecting them to be. Her hands feel slightly rough like she uses them a lot. Let''s take a look-see at her status.
Name: Copper Tesla Age:7 Sex: Female Trainer Type: None Titles: Tinkerer, Mechanic, Daughter of the great Engineer Skills: Cooking 2 Running 1 Pokemon Knowledge 1 Tinkering 3 Engineering 3 Dismantling 3
Wow. Gear head much? Looks like her family has an engineering background. It was only after I got a good look at her that I see that her dress was ripped. Getting a better look at her she has dirty blonde short hair. She has a bit of a pale complexion like she''s indoors all day. She has bright green eyes and is wearing a green sundress. "Oh no. It looks like those jerks ripped your dress somehow." (Red) "Huh" (Copper) She looks at the rip in her dress and starts to cry a little. "D-don''t worry my mom can fix it no problem! So we can run by my house real quick and get her to fix it." (Red) "R-really? Is it fine to get your mom to fix it?" (Copper) "Sure is let''s go get it fixed." (Red) I hold my hand out for her and again she nervously takes it and now we''re off to my house. Chapter 4 Meet the parents I and Copper make it to my house a half-hour after meeting and we walk through the front door. "Mooom I''m home! I''ve brought a guest!" (Red) Hearing footsteps coming from the kitchen my mom walks out wiping her hands off on an apron. "Red dear did you say we have a gues-" (Mother) Mom pauses and she sees Copper. Then before I realized it she was right in front of Copper. THE HELL?! That''s a good fifteen feet she crossed in less than a second!! Is she a ninja? Now that I think about it I never used my observe skill on her. I''ll have to do that later at a better time. "Oh my goodness my boy has brought home such a cute girl!" (Mother) Before she could react Copper was engulfed in my mom''s arms is a suffocating hug. R.I.P Copper. "My goodness your so adorable! Look at you! You''re even taller than my boy that makes you even more adorable!" (Mother) Copper looks like she is actually suffocating now so I guess I should step in. "Mom, I understand you''re excited but she might suffocate if you continue." (Red) Mom pauses for a moment and let''s go of Copper. "Oh dear i''m so sorry dear I just got a bit too excited after seeing has cute you are." (Mother) "I''m n-not cute at all and I''m to t-tall. (Copper) "Nonsense! With the right clothes, you could look even cuter!" (Mother) After she mentions her clothes mom take a look and notices her dress is messed up. "Oh goodness, what in the world happened to your dress dear?"(Mother) Copper looks like she suddenly remembers she was being bullied earlier and looks like she''s about to cry. "Mom, she was being bullied earlier by a group of boys. It sounded like they were bullying her because of her height. I chased them off but not before they somehow ripped her dress." (Red) "WHAT?! How dare someone bullies such an adorable girl! They should be punished severely. "(Mother) Mom once again hugs Copper but a little harder this time. Copper''s arms are flailing around in surprise. "Mom like I said before you''ll suffocate her. Also, I did run them off but I didn''t fight them though. I brought her here to see if you could fix her dress." (Red) "Good job son! Your already rescuing damsels in distress! Mommy is proud of you! Now as for you how about we get that dress fix?"(Mother) ''P-please ma''am if you d-don''t mind." (Copper) "Of coarse, I don''t mind for someone as cute as you. One moment while I go get some for you to wear and grab my sewing stuff."(Mother) Mom gets up and with a hop in her step, she walks to her room humming and in a good mood. "Sorry about that she really likes cute things. So seeing you hit all the right buttons." (Red) "I-it''s fine. She''s really nice." (Copper) A moment later mom comes walking back in the room with one of her shirts and her sewing equipment. "Here''s one of my shirts you can wear while I fix your dress. Now let''s get you out of that dress."(Mother) Mom helps Copper out of her dress. So now she''s standing in front of me almost naked. She''s not wearing a bra and she''s wearing cute Elekid printed underwear. She''s not showing any embarrassment at all.I repeat a girl is standing in front of me naked without looking embarrassed. Why? Because she''s a freaking seven-year-old girl! Get your head out of the gutter!! She finishes putting moms shirt. It''s oversized obviously but not too much. " Red dear how about you both go play in your room while I fix this."(Mother) "Okay, mom. This way." (Red) Copper follows me upstairs and into a room. As soon as she gets in my room she gasps. "S-so many posters."(Copper) On the walls of my room, there isn''t a spot where you can see the actual wall as it''s covered in Pokemon posters. Specifically Pokemon Champion posters. The past ten years worth of Pokemon Champions and there winning team are on my wall as posters. Of course, there are some Champions who stayed as Champions for multiple years but they still have a new poster out with their current team. "Yea I like watching the Elite Four challenges and the Championship fights." (Red) "I don''t get the chance to watch them much as I mostly help mom and dad in their shop. Are you going to be a trainer when you grow up Red?"(Copper)Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author. "Yea. I plan on becoming the best and fight to the top and become the Champion of the world." (Red) "Umm, you mean our region right? Of Kanto?"(Copper) "No. I''ll become the strongest the world has ever seen. I''ll defeat all the worlds Champions and become the Emperor Champion. That''s my dream." (Red) Emperor Champion. What is it? Some would say it''s a fairy tale or a dream. A truly impossible to obtain dream. To beat every single standing champion and become the sole standing Champion in the world Why is it impossible? Because a Champions career is always on borrowed time. As soon as someone becomes Champion everyone who wishes to become Champion the next year will study and prepare to counter everything they can against the current Champion. It''s rather hard to look up info on an opponent you don''t know you''re going to be facing. But if you know you who you are going against it''ll be easy to take them down. Champions rarely change there team line ups. Most are arrogant and don''t see themselves losing with the team they had built and raised with so much hardship. That''s always their downfall. Others would rather not have to raise a whole new team from the ground up. Some just love their team too much and are unwilling to bend. They all fall sooner or later. Occasionally Champions challenge each other and a Champion will become the Champion of two regions. But now they have to deal with two regions worths of challengers. Many don''t wish to go through that and are content with just there own region. "Wow. T-that''s amazing. I wish I had a dream like that."(Copper) "I''m sure you''ll have a dream eventually. We still have a long time until we are both grown-ups." (Red) She walks over to one of my posters that I have next to my bed. "I know this one! She''s the current champion, right? I managed to see her Championship match!" (Copper) "You''re right she''s the current Champion. Her name is Violet and she''s actually my favorite champion so far." (Red) "She''s so beautiful and stylish."(Copper) It''s true Violet Is an exceptional beauty. Her straight violet purple hair flows down her back like a waterfall. Her piercing green eyes can she right through you. She has a look on the poster that just screams better than you. She does have a look of arrogance to her but the results of her battles speak for themselves. The Championship is a series of battle to determine the right to face the Champion. In all of her matches, she wiped the floor with her opponents. Not even sustaining a single knock out on her team. Even when there was clear type disadvantage she came out on top by using strategy. Some trainers like to just brute force their way to victory and sure that''s an option but when you clearly have someone using type advantage against you brute force is just not an option. We both talk for a few more minutes until Mom walks in. "Okay sweety I finished your dress. Let''s get you changed." (Mother) Copper takes off the shirt that mom gave her and puts her dress back on. "Wow, I can even tell where it was torn. Thank you, ma''am,"(Copper) "No problem sweety. Now you should head on home I''m sure your parents are wondering where you are at. Red be a dear and walk her home will you." (Mother) "Yes, mom. Let''s go so that we don''t worry your parents." (Red) We both leave my house and walk back down the road. Copper shows me the way to her house which is not actually that far. Just a ten-minute walk down the road. We reach her house and I take in what I see. A nice looking two-story house that''s similar to mine. But the similarities of our house end there as they have an extension to their house... a big one. A huge garage that even bigger than the house. Looks like it could fit both our houses actually. But there''s another thing that stands out... "I''m s-sorry for the mess my parents kinda have a habit of collecting junk to repair. They end up going overbored with the collecting and don''t have room for things."(Copper) That''s an understatement. There are junk and parts everywhere. There are even cars that have been cannibalized for there parts. Washing machines, dryers, refrigerators, computers, tv''s, and other things that can''t even be identified now and strewn all over the property. I think I even see half a plane.... wheres the other half... We finally come up to the front door to the house and Copper walks in. "Mom, Dad I''m home!"(Copper) There''s a bit of a commotion in one of the rooms and then heavy running could be heard. Suddenly something came around the corner. The only thing I can describe it is.... a dwarf. No, not the little people kind on earth. But the ax-wielding. Orc slaying. Drink loving. Full bearded fantasy dwarf came and snatched poor Copper up in a bear hug while crying. "Coppeeerrrr! Where have you been?! Papa has been so worried! Were you bullied again?! Don''t worry papa will beat them up this time for sure!" (???) "Daaad not in front of a guest."(Copper) The dwarf pauses for a moment and looks over at me. "Hello, sir. Sorry, she''s back so late it''s partially my fault." (Red) The dwarf gently sets Copper back down and walks towards me with fire in his eyes "Oh, are you saying that your the one who''s been bullying my princess?" (???) "No, sir." (Red) "What?! Then what are you here for? Wait... no no you''re here to ask to date her arent you?!" (???) "Daaaaaad!"(Copper) "No, sir." (Red) "No?! Wait is not to date her then... M-marriage?! Then you must want to marry her?!" (???) Looking over at Copper she''s blushing furiously. "No, sir." (Red) "What?! Are you saying she''s not good enough fer ya?! Cmere ya little runt!" (???) He takes a couple of steps towards me and starts to reach towards me. The fire in his eyes tells me he''s serious. But I''m not worried. Why? Because, the true ruler of the house has snuck up behind him. "Dear. What are you about to do to a child." (???) The dwarf suddenly pauses. His hand on inches away from grabbing me. But for him... a hand falls on his shoulder. A hand that''s below freezing. "Dear. I''ll ask again. What are you about to do to a child that looks the same age as our daughter. Who is only seven years old." (???) The dwarf slowly turns around while sweating furiously. "Sweetums I''m just doing a father''s duty and scaring away any boys after our princess. Sides he might be the one who has been bullying our princess." (???) "Ah yes, a bully who comes into the home of the one who they bully yes?" (???) "W-well... I mean... he could be..." (???) "Dear. He''s the first person our Copper has brought home. I''d rather not think that you just scared away our Copper''s first friend. Apologize to the poor boy. Though he doesn''t look it you could have terrified the poor boy." (???) Realization flashes by the dwarfs face at what he''s done. He suddenly throws himself on the ground in what I can only call a Japanese seiza. "Laddy! Please forgive this fool of a father!" (???) "It''s fine. I knew I wasn''t in danger." (Red) "Huh? But i almost..." (???) I point at Copper''s mom. "Because the true ruler of the house was behind you the whole time." (Red) The dwarf''s mouth just gaped open and no words came out. Copper''s mom just started laughing. "He''s got you there dear. He knows who runs this house. What''s your name?" (???) "Red, ma''am" (Red) "Red huh? My name is Nickel. And this failure of a father and husband is Iron. Come over and sit down with us and tell us how you met our Copper." (Nickel) We go over and sit in what looks to be a living room. But even in here there''s a bunch of junk. "Well the first time I saw her she was getting bullied by this group-" (Red) Chapter 5 Skills to pay the bills. Except im 10 years old and i dont have to pay bills HA! My current status.

Honestly. The amount of skill point I have saved up is a bit ridiculous. I could easily max out several skills right now. The World Admin has been throwing quests at me left and right. Majority of them were really easy to downright trivial. The only difficult quest I had was to fight off some bullies. But thanks to my mom starting me on some fitness routines ive acquired several physical skills to help me. The bullies are of course Blue and his flunkies. They tried to bully Copper a few more times but I always stopped them and drove them away. I''ve started to walk copper home after school every day. Not that I don''t mind as I enjoy her company despite her still being a kid and me having the mind of an adult. Speaking of Copper. She and I have become close over these 3 years. She''s essentially my best friend and I imagine she considers me her best friend as well. Well.... we don''t really have any other friends though...so... yeah. She really smart when it comes to engineering and other technology. She has been making a lot of useful gadgets lately. She also has stopped stuttering when talking to me a couple of months after we started being friends. She still has a bit of a confidence issue though. I''m going to see if I can''t help her work on that. Another thing I''ve noticed is even though my Analyze is max out I still get question marks in my status. Don''t even get me started on my moms status. I was nothing but Question marks all over the place except her first name. But when I use Analyze on some random dude on the street there are none. Which leaves me to think that someone is blocking me from seeing certain things. Like my last name for instance. Mom tends to avoid and redirect anytime I''ve asked about my father or even my last name. So I''ve learned to just not ask. One day after I get home from school. "Moooom I''m home." (Red) "Red. Come sit down a moment." (mother) Uh oh. She''s sitting on the couch with her arms crossed and eyeing me with a serious look. She doesn''t often get into serious mode but this is what it looks. I''m not in trouble. She would have her eyes closed and the temperature in the room would feel like it''s below zero. It was scary.... I do as she says and go over to the loveseat in front of the couch she is sitting on. She waits a moment after I sit to speak. "Red. Are those kids still bulling you and Copper?" (Mother) "Yes ma''am" (Red) "Are there still only three of them?"(Mother) "No, ma''am. They added to more kids to there group. admittedly they have been getting tough to handle. Me and Copper and been taking random routes home to avoid them." (Red) She nods with I smirk on her lips. She looks impressed. "Hmm. Good job avoiding them. Now, unfortunately, that won''t work every time. And one day you may just get unlucky and get into an encounter."(Mother) Considering my skill level with my luck... I doubt it will happen.This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report. "Therefore ive decided that you should enroll in the nearby martial arts dojo. There you will be able to learn how to defend yourself should the need arise."(Mother)

Well, I guess that decides it then. And mom is being firm on this as well. Hmm maybe I can use this to help Copper get more confidence. "May I make a request? Can I bring Copper with me? I think this might help her with her low confidence. With her parent''s permission of course." (Red) Mom thinks about it for a moment then nods. "Yes, I agree this might be what she needs. Though I loathe sending someone as adorable as her to a rough place like a martial arts dojo. Hopefully, it won''t get to the point where she needs to actually defend herself."(Mother) "Yes. I will make sure that she isn''t hurt." (Red) "Good good. Now..." Oh boy, here it comes... it always turns out this way when we start talking about Copper. Wait for it... "I wonder what dress I should make her next! Should I make her martial art themed dress?!"(Mother) And there it is. Mom is now off in her own world filled with Copper wearing the adorable dresses she makes her. Our parents met a month after we became friends. Her parents keep seeing her come home with new clothes and wondered where they came from. Eventually, they came over to thank my mom for all the clothes and they became friends. That day also turned into an impromptu modeling session as the parents made Copper wear more than 12 outfits that made Copper look more and more adorable in different ways. Seriously have I mentioned how adorable Copper is? The next day I walked Copper back to her house and talked to her parents about her going to the dojo with me. Her dad was not that happy about it but relented after hearing that my mom also recommended her to go. That''s how much he respects her as a fellow Copper lover... The next weekend we started our training at the dojo. I actually completed the quest I received in a week. And over the course of a year, our skills in martial arts improved considerably. Especially mine due to my growth cheat. My skill level after a year was at 4. The dojo sensei couldn''t even beat me. The next day after I beat him the dojo was closed and on the door there was a sign that said: "I''ve gone on a journey to rediscover myself.". It seems I hurt his pride a bit... Though if he was beaten by someone with a skill level of 4 so he wasn''t THAT strong. We came back to my house and told my mom about the dojo being closed and the sensei going on a journey. Mom was a little surprised then went into thought. Me and copper just kinda looked at each other wondering what she was thinking. "Ok. I''ve decided. I''ll take over your training then. Let''s go outside for now." (Mother) Copper and I both just sat there with our mouths gaping. She''s going to take over our training? Does she know martial arts? "Come on let''s not waste daylight."(Mother) Mom yells from outside waiting for us to come out. Me and Copper just looked at each other and nodded. We went outside to see mom stretching. One thing ive noticed after her over the years is how fit she is. She''s extremely nimble and does stretch''s that make me cringe thinking about myself trying them. "Ok red come in front of me and enter your stance."(Mother) I do as she asks and enter my stance. Even I know its not the best stance but it works for me at my current skill. "Hmm good stance. Now come at me with your best."(Mother) I know the look she''s giving me is one of those no-nonsense looks as she means business. If she is asking me to go at her. Then I go at her. "Here I come then!" (Red) I sprint a few feet and prepare one of my best moves. I come right in front of her and prepare to grab her for a throw. But for some reason, all I see is the sky. Hey, I see a few clouds. That stupid shitty weatherman said it was going to be a cloudless day. The hell am I looking at Mr weatherman?! Then I hit the ground like a sack of potatoes "uff. Anyone catch the trainer of that tauros?" (Red) "Silly boy. Your attempt at a grab was good but was still full of openings. I''ll train you on how to improve on that and see alternatives to throws. It seems the dojo sensei in this town only specialized in throws. This will need to be corrected. Now..."(Mother) Mom then looks over to Copper. Copper gets startled at mom looking over at her. I think she''s breaking out in a nervous sweat. "Copper sweety it''s your turn."(Mother) Even demons have beautiful smiles. That was the day our training from hell started. By the time we turned thirteen our skill level in martial arts reached level 8. We actually did end up confronting Blue and his little gang. Copper took them on by herself. By the time it was over the bullies were running away crying. "I''ll get you guys back one day! You''ll pay for this!" (Blue) Dude... Blue... thats a classic villain line bro... you aren''t supposed to go down that route. Copper could hardly believe she stood up to the boys that bullied her for so long. The smile she had that day was the most adorable. Did I mention that she''s adorable?
