Cubone- A Story Like No Other (Fan made story) Part 1

Rain fell down, melted crystals falling through the atmosphere. Many Pokemon concealed themselves in trees, or dark caves to protect themselves from the rain. Their bright eyes showed flames of eternal love, and sorrow for those still drenched. A Pokemon's life is important, if their life essence is lost, or their soul finally escapes to be with those of the dead, not one, but all Pokemon circle the fallen, eyes filled with tears. Sliding down their faces, onto the corpse below. A Pokemon's death is a grim, and desolate. A baby Cubone sat on its mother's knee, staring kindheartedly into her hazel eyes. They glimmered with hope. She spoke, "What is it, my dear?" 

Cubone smiled. "N-Nothing...I just love your eyes, Mama."

"Well, thank you, dear. Isn't it beautiful to watch the rain drops fall while watching them in the cave?"

"Yes. Mama?"

"What is it?"

"You never told me...what happened to Dad."

She sighed. "I knew this day would come, I just didn't know when." His mother's eyes changed, shining with soon-to-fall tears. She hugged him around the waist, holding him close. The droplets fell onto his  arm, sliding down, and glowing in the faint light. "Mama?"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Your father was a strong Pokemon, and intelligent. But, sometimes he would go out of line, and nearly die because of it. He went on an adventure with one of his close friends, or so he thought. His close friend was controlling your father, binding his heartstrings, snapping them one at a time if he didn't do it right. Your father went on that adventure with his 'friend' and they came to a desert. He grew weak, for he had an unstable heart. A gang of Cacturne pounced him when he fainted, then they let his 'friend' finish him off. That was the last I saw of him."

"How do you know this Mama?"

"He told me. A smile of malevolence, eyes as cold as frost. He didn't care, as long as he succeeded." 

"I'm so sorry, Mama."

"...Let's forget this for now." The rainfall stopped, only the droplets of moonlight silver dew left in place. They both watched as it stopped; watching some of the Pokemon coming out of their dry places. "My dear. I need to collect some food for us. I'll be back by night, that's a promise."

"Be...careful Mama."

"I will, my child." She placed a kiss upon his head, soft and known among Pokemon as a blessing to those you truly care for and want to stay safe. She left Cubone all alone in the cave, sadness overwhelming her features. I...I'm sorry, my son. I don't know if I ever will come back. I love you, always and forever. She disappeared through the trees, the silver dew falling onto the tip of her nose. She looked back once more, out of Cubone's sight.

Fallen- A bit of the story

It seemed quiet. Too quiet. Annabelle clicked her finger, ordering a simple, blue flame. It came alive. It zoomed around her, it's light- blue eyes keen to bring her heart's desire. A wisp. When she touched it by it's small hand, it changed to sky-blue. The wisp's eyes grew wide in fear, turning black, yet a vast, unrecognisable place. An inky substance fell from it's eyes, the size of droplets. It screeched, howled and before it disappeared into the depths of it's forest, it burned a mark into her flesh. Annabelle questioned the wisp's gestures. It occurred to her. It was scared. From what? She spoke softly, "Why hide? You're here to kill me, are you not?"
A rough voice came from the darkness, "Bravo, your highness. You have quite the brain don't you?"
"I've missed you voice. Except, not. Take my life. To balance out the scales of light and death."

Halloween poem

It is now time for us

to awaken,

To scare thee little 

kids away,

To show them once and for

all, 

Who's the baddest of all.

Come little souls,

gather around,

for this is our final Halloween,

the scariest of all,

we shall scare thee!

Happy Halloween! 

Pokemon: Mewtwo- evil or not?

 

Now, Mewtwo. One of the most powerful legendary Pokemon, known for his extraordinary psychic abilities. He 's supposed to be the cruelest Pokemon of the Pokemon world. Mewtwo can even talk to humans in his mind. But the question is, is he evil? Well, someone may believe his is evil for killing the people who created him. He even fought Mew, who's genes he was created from, and then turned Ash to metal or steel of some kind (this was in Pokemon: The First Movie). He isn't exactly evil, he's just misunderstood.The scientists that created him made him act this way, to be the strongest, unfeeling Pokemon. It's everyone's opinion whether they believe he is or not. Maybe if someone showed Mewtwo compassion, feeling and understanding, he could change for the better. 

Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, wanted to use Mewtwo's extraordinary power for his own evil intentions. He was able to do this by creating a special armour, to manipulate Mewtwo, to listen to his command. This shows that he wasn't controlling this, and it wasn't his fault. He was created from Mew's genes (as I've already mentioned), created by the scientists as a killing machine, then soon after he cared not for humankind, but to destroy them. But, the question is can we blame him for this? Or, the scientists who created him, and Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket? 

China's One Child Policy- Was it right or wrong?

                                                                               

China is one of the largest countries in Asia, being second to Russia, the biggest country of the world. China is located on the East of Asia, with the population increasing every day. Now, the One Child Policy comes into view. Time for an explanation. The One Child Policy is to reduce the number of people in China, for example, only being able to have one child (unless you already have children, then you can have one more). In the late 1970s the policy came to life, because their leader noticed the increase of people. He decided he'd create a policy to save everyone, make sure there's enough food, no pollution and to make sure there's still room for everyone to live happily. But...did he do the right thing? Or not? It did decrease the population of China and saved food. However, there's one thing that mostly struck me. They abandon, or even kill little girls.WHY?! If they had a child, and it was a boy that would be happy because boys are 'stronger than girls'. They were even given a nickname for how they were treat differently to girls. They were nicknamed 'Little Princes'. Even sometimes if you didn't have enough money for the child they would put something...(can't remember what it was). But, let's calm down for a second. In 2015, the One Child Policy seemed to go away and was replaced with the Two Child Policy. It was interesting learning about this.

Chinese Cinderella by Adeline Yen Mah

Chinese Cinderella is the autobiography of the famous Chinese-American author and physician. Adeline goes through her life from start, to what she's doing now. From start to finish, it's filled with emotion, dreams and what she has to endure to have gotten this far. Adeline Yen Mah portrays how everyone believed she was bad luck from the day of her birth. Her mother died 3 days after her birth and it was from a fever. You should read this book if you haven't, because it's an excellent book, and made me cry in parts.

Japan-One of the most beautiful countries

Japan is known for it's beautiful sakura trees (cherry blossom), outstanding sights and of course everyone knows that Pokemon was created in this country. It's most active volcano, Sakurajima, means 'Cherry Blossom Island'. Located on an island in Kyushu, Japan. Rated 7th for the most beautiful countries, we can either argue, or not, to say this place is beautiful, and the cherry blossom is worth watching as it flows magnificently through the wind. Kimonos, a Japanese style dress, are also part of the beauty. With many different designs, you can find the perfect one to fit your style.

One of the most detailed Kimonos I've ever seen.
