Boo's newest fanfic. I've decided to let you decide.
With GoldenSteelix's (*bows*) approval, I have prepared four prologues, each varying in size, style, characters and plots. I couldn't decide on what to do, so I thought I'd let the lovely readers choose for me.
Rules: 1.
Don't spam up this thread, I have prepared this for a whole day, and I don't want to let GS down when he has kindly let me do this. This includes advertising your own fanfics.
2.
You may choose one story, which I will give no titles, hints or secrets out about until the votes have been counted. I will be noting who has voted, so don't think you can get past this one. ^^
3.
Any other Neoseeker rules apply.
4.
Do not under any circumstances tell one another what you have voted for, I will report any posts which do to hide them. It just spoils the fun, and I want everyone to have their own uninfluenced opinion, is that too much to ask? ^^ However, you may say what you think of the Prologues here, but as long as you talk about all of them, and state no obvious preference.
5.
A form to be sent to me via PM will be the only way your vote shall be counted.

Okay, time for the spoilers:
Spoiler: Prologue Number 1:
His heart pounded happily as the spring in his step made the beginning of his newest journey that bit more special. He fumbled for his pokeball as many of his friends did while he stood in the background, releasing his already close friend, Ralts. The Ralts psyched it’s self into a fighting stance, as the Taillow in front of them took off towards them, he called for his Ralts to use confusion, a move that he had been taught by his sisters, and the Taillow was stopped right in front of his hand, before being tossed to the floor repetitively. He and Ralts cried with joy as they defeated their first Pokémon, and he was reminded to try and catch it. He tossed a pokeball his sister had given him as a farewell present, and it sucked in the Pokémon before them. It wobbled a few times, as he clenched his fists with hope, but it had been left too long to recover, and so was quick to escape. Ralts could sense a deep disappointment, but he perked up and called for his Ralts to follow him as he ran, bumping into a Teddiursa, who apologised cutely. This had to be his chance, he pointed at Ralts and smiled; “Let’s go-“ “Wait! That’s my Pokémon!”
Spoiler: Prologue number 2:
Many may say that she haunts the area, for her heart broken as she waited, 2000 years she has waited and still waiting. People claim to have seen her, even Pokémon agree, and all say that she looks over the sea, holding her hands close to her chest in hope. Her hair blows in an elegant manner, the same way her long dress did. People call her the Mermaid of the Peak, but there are other names too. But sadly no one knows her story. Until now.
Spoiler: Prologue number 3:
“Dawn! Hurry up!” He ran, the next gym was minutes away. Dawn rolled her eyes as she picked up her pace, watching as the lightning bolt tail disappeared out of sight. “He’s excited then…” She groaned, as Brock agreed; “Never fails to be any different.” But at that moment, she spotted something she hadn’t thought to check. “Look! A contest hall!” She squealed with excitement, suddenly in the same joyous mood Ash was in, but running much faster than he was, for ‘she carried much less weight on her shoulders’ Ash always used as en excuse, but Dawn disagreed; ‘My hair weighs me down just as much as Pikachu does to you.’ She would say, for she knew it wound him up. “I have to practice! I haven’t thought about seals, tactics, Pokémon, moves, combinations, what I’ll wear, anything!” She suddenly burst in panic, causing Ash to jump as she sped past. She stuck her tongue out as she carried on running, but pulling herself to a halt as she noticed she was about to run into a building. She turned and smirked; “Well let’s have one more practice before you go to your gym! Battle me!” She yelled, as Ash stopped a few yards away, Pikachu hopping down close. He yelled back at her; “You’re on!”
Spoiler: Prologue number 4:
Battle had not yet begun, it had not yet been foreseen, but the fate of one has already been told, so you already know what happened. But not how it happened. The legend that was told for generations after his sacrifice, no one once thought about the romance that happened behind it, but it did, and it tore them apart to see each other being pushed away in different directions, different destinies. Well their story should be told in a light that was shone so poorly before, as the flame is brightened by an intensity of relationship.
I'd like to take this chance to thank everyone supporting me in my fanfics, and thanks to GS for allowing me to do this again. Credit to the 'deviant' who drew the picture at the top, they are obviously very talented.
Okay, thanks for all of you who voted, and now that my Ikarishipping has ended, my time has been consumed by preparing what you have voted for. I'm going to go through the prologues and talk about what you might have read, but I may do one in particular in the future. If you do not wish to know, I have used spoilers, so you do not need to read.
Spoiler: Prologue number 1
People didn't seem to like this one, no votes. It was actually a start of a shipping people may not recognise. I deliberately made it seem as if it was the regular set out of a journey. However, it was actually planned to be a relationship between Max, from the Advanced series, and Mollie, from 'The Spell of the Unown.'
Spoiler: Prologue number 2
Won 8 votes, therefore my new story, and many of you realised what it was. Of course, this is a story of the Ghost Maiden, taken from the early episodes, which I've watched several times to prepare for it. The story will be posted very soon.
Spoiler: Prologue number 3
Not as popular, winning 2 votes, but it was very misleading as you thought it was a Pearl shipping! Actually, this was planned to be a Fireredshipping; Ash and Zoey. I don't know why, but I enjoy playing around with Ash's character.
Spoiler: Prologue number 4
Came second in the votes, with 5 votes. No one managed to realize that this was based on the movie; Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, as my plans were to make a Castle Shipping. (Sir Aaron and Lady Rin.)
Thanks to all who voted and feel free to discuss here!
