Pokémon: Fallout -- Chapter I

Chapter I

The story begins deep inside Vault 151 somewhere in the middle of the wasteland. The year is 2115. It has been almost six years since the bombs dropped and the residents of Vault 151 had to retreat inside their new eternal home. Once you entered the vault, there is no leaving. The wasteland is a terrifying place full of horrible creatures and fatal amounts of radiation. The only hope for survival is to remain within the safety of Vault 151 and hope to preserve the last hope of humanity until a brighter time. Who knows when or if the Earth might be safe to inhabit again but that is not the worry for right now. The primary concern is keeping the vault under strict regulation so to avoid anyone type of mutiny or unrest. In Vault 151, there is a scientist known simply as The Professor. He works day and night trying to discover a solution to securing life outside the vault. The Professor also takes care of his nephew Isaac since Isaac's parents were killed. His father was killed before Vault 151 and his mother was the first casualty of Vault 151. The Professor is headed down to the living quarters to awaken his nephew with big news. The Professor walks into the room and speaks to Isaac.
The Professor says, "Wake up Isaac; you have a big day ahead of you. It is your 16th birthday and it's time for you to become a man. You have many responsibilities now and we are depending on you to help contribute to the Vault 151 way of life."
Isaac responds, "Professor, I'm so tired can't I start being a man tomorrow or when I'm not living in this hell hole?"
Professor, "No, Isaac, today is the day. Get your Vault suit on. I have a surprise for you in my laboratory."
Isaac slowly gets out of bed, grumbling the whole time about wishing he had suffered the fate of his late parents rather than be stuck in this vault, and heads down to the Professor's lab. On the way down he passes the one bright spot in the vault, the girl of his dreams, Jenna. She was a year older and had been friends with Isaac since before the vault. His day dream sequence was quickly interrupted though by Gary, the bully of Vault 151 who always picks on him.
Gary, "What up loser? Don't tell me you’re staring at my girl again. I swear I'll knock your lights out again if I even catch you looking at her."
Isaac, "She's not your girl, Gary. I can talk to her if I want to. I'm not afraid of you."
The two boys start fighting and they exchange punches to the faces before the security guards break them up. Isaac is told to hurry down to the Professor's lab. Finally, Isaac arrives at the lab to see his uncle sitting at his desk with 3 poké balls sitting on the table.
Isaac, "Alright Professor, I'm here what's the big surprise? I could be knocking some sense into Gary right now instead of being here."
Professor, "I really wish you and your half-brother would get along. Why must you two always be fighting. One of these days you are going to be kicked out of the Vault and that will be the end of that."
Isaac, "So you’re saying that if I continue to fight Gary, I'll be kicked out of Vault 151? SCORE! Wait what if I kill Gary?! They'd have to kick me out then. Hey, Hey Professor can I borrow that pistol on the table? I need to go run an errand."
Professor, "Isaac shut up and sit down. Now before you are three of the most terrible creatures that reside in the wasteland. We managed to bring them with us into the vault before they became subject to radioactive poisoning and mutated. Since it's your birthday, I want you to have one of them. You may choose anyone you wish."
Isaac, "Is there a gun in one of them? ‘Cause that's what I really want for my birthday. OH! OH! or a grenade or really anything that could be used to kill or maim someone."
Professor, "You really need to take this serious. Owning a pokémon is a lot of responsibility. It could be the greatest companion of all and protect you from even the worst creatures."
Isaac, "Fine...........if it'll get you off my back, I'll pick one but then I'm going straight back to bed."
Isaac grabs the ball off the table and leaves the room without as much as a thank you. The Professor looks on in concern only wanting the best for his nephew and worried that he might not care for his new pokémon to the full extent that it needs.  Isaac heads back to his room with the ball in hand and sets it on the table and throws himself into bed. Upon setting it on the table, the ball burst open and a fire lizard pops out and looks at him.  Isaac is startled and freaks out, mostly because the fire lizard just burned a whole in his chair with the flame on the end of its tail.
Isaac, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? THAT'S MY FAVORITE CHAIR!"
He quickly buzzes the Professor on the intercom and starts yelling at him, "YOU NEVER SAID THIS THING WAS GOING TO BE FLAMMABLE!! IT JUST RUINED MY FAVORITE CHAIR AND IT’S ABOUT TO SET OFF THE SMOKE ALARM!"
The Professor responds, "Calm down calm down, just aim the ball at him and say 'RETURN' and it'll be back in the ball. You have to be more careful and you really have to pay more attention to what I say next time."
Satisfied that the problem has subsided, Isaac ignores the rest of the Professor's advice and falls back asleep.
