Episode 18 - Dark Depths: "If you please..."
I suppose I won't know the fate of my partner, Cameron. I knew him for such a short amount of time and things just went from bad to worse, if my journey keeps progressing like this, there will not be any more teammates for me. It seems things always go wrong for me.
But on to present matters, I am not sure what happened to Cameron but I had an even bigger problem on my hands, I was alone in this place with no backup or anything, completely exposed in this establishment which holds so much evil in its interior.
I rode down to level 2 of this building, the silent vibration of electronically controlled contraptions whirring under me and the sound of instrumental elevator music playing as I waited. Taking a short break while this elevator descended, I sat down on the metallic floor, my fur squeezing against it.
"Oh!" I cried when the lights dimmed to blackness and the elevator music shut off, even the flashlight I had activated earlier burned out, the elevator had shut down, trapping me inside of it. Quickly I jumped up and cautiously backed up against the left wall, I readied myself in a defensive stance, not letting only my rifle become reserved for my defense, I was prepared to use any of my 4 major attacks: Flamethrower, Icebeam, Crush Claw, or Double Team.
Shivering there, nothing occurred, I was relieved but also disappointed, all of this got me wired up for nothing. The elevator lit up once again after that whole pointless scare occurred, though the sudden start of the elevator music and the lights did startle me a bit.
The doors opened and the next room was revealed to me, I shut my eyes before I could see anything then reopened them when I stepped outside.
"I knew it..."
Blood smeared all over the walls, everywhere, the blood smeared in certain fashions to create writing. But this was not the work of Constantine, someone else was writing all of this, the messages wrote:
"Go deeper into Nightraven and kill Constantine... if you please"
"This way, go this way... if you please"
"The evil only gets worse from here on in, end it all by killing that Sneasel... if you please"
"Go down there and kill that son of a bitch, Constantine... if you please"
I was overwhelmed by all of this horror for these people must have sliced their own body parts just to get themselves enough blood on their hands to write these messages, but then my opinion changed when I saw one man dead on the ground, slices and cuts all over his body.
"These people wrote all of these messages with this man's blood...?"
Feeling sick, I almost puked. This was plain-out horrible for these people to do this, even their footprints were covered in blood as they left this room. Regaining my stomach control, I turned my rifle's built-in flashlight on and continued, trying not to look at the man's body.
"If you please... if you please... if you please..." those words echoed eerily through my mind suddenly.
My eyes shut tightly as my breathing stopped and my heart rate sped up. It was happening again, my Instincts were activating themselves once more.
"Please, don't do this!"
I witnessed 4 PEF soldiers surrounding one man, all of them aiming their rifles at him, "We do not care, now you people took in this evil and you are going to help the rest of our reinforcements find this place!" one of the soldiers yelled, they were all ground units, ones in camouflaged uniforms.
"... yeah, and we can't contact any of our other soldiers..." the second soldier calmly stated.
"... plus... we don't seem to have a pen" the first one stepped back in.
All 4 of them unsheathed their knives and began to stab the man repeatedly, his screams of pain echoing through the room, the soldier's laughter echoing as well. My vision skipped to all 4 of them painting the walls with the man's blood.
The white light exited me out of the vision, I opened my eyes and took a deep breath and my heart rate went back to normal and my heavy breathing passing away to a slower and calmer pace.
I turned back around to see the man the PEF soldiers butchered and wondered why they committed something so awful, they behaved as a criminal would, but another thing baffled me quite a bit.
"... If you please..."
All of their messages ended with that phrase, but why? Was it a PEF codeword? Was it just the way they spoke?
"Get back, go, go, go!" someone yelled from outside of the room I occupied, I hid myself near the doorway, the shadows of the dark concealing me. 3 PEF soldiers ran past the doorway, the one covering the rear position had his back turned as he fired at something.
"Get out of the wa..."
Suddenly silent, the soldier's order was cut off inexplicably followed by a collision with the floor. All 3 of them had fallen over at once. A shadow slowly moved past the doorway near me, a very small figure with a robe on. I slowly poked my head out to see what had happened, 2 of the soldiers were down on the floor, blood squirting out of their stomachs and expanding against the floor while the leader made a quick attempt to crawl away from his attacker, leaving a blood trail behind him.
The figure walking toward the soldier suddenly vanished and it was as if he or she was a hallucination too.
"Co... Constantine... he's... I need backup!" the leader yelled, choking on his blood. He looked back and tried to find Constantine, but he had disappeared. Then I saw a shadow appear on the wall and there he was, Constantine walking right next the leader, walking sideways on the right wall.
I looked away.
The sounds of blood flying, screaming, and splattering was heard, I shut my eyes tightly, trying not to make any noises for I could be the next victim.
Then finally it all stopped, I turned back to see nothing left of the group leader, he had vanished, all that was left of him was his clothes and his equipment, blood covered the entire floor and expanded in all directions. Constantine had vanished as well, but it did not make any sense.
Constantine was stalking Cameron then suddenly he appears here?
Taking a few steps into the hallway, I noticed that these 3 soldiers were the ones who wrote the messages in blood by the look of their uniforms. But what happened to the fourth one?
Quickly I moved the opposite way, knowing that advancing where those soldiers have fallen could mean certain death. But unluckily this path led to a dead-end. But before I turned around to head the other way, I noticed something sitting on a small table, a picture.
I slowly picked it up and stared at it, but quickly dropped it when I figured out what it showed.
"Undo thy sins... undo thy sins..."
The picture showed Apple hanging by a rope strapped to her neck. She was hung. The words "Undo thy sins" written in blood on the picture.
Startled, I backed up and turned around to see Cameron standing there, his eyes gauged out, "Undo thy sins... undo thy sins... undo thy sins..." he whispered as he turned into a black mist and vanished into the air.
I was stunned that Constantine was playing all of these mind games with me, why doesn't he just kill me now and get it over with instead of playing with his food.
Suddenly I heard the shattering of glass and the screams of a female in excruciating pain. I followed the screams until they lead me to a long staircase going down, past where Constantine killed those 3 soldiers. The lights barely on, they dimmed and flickered silently as I ran downstairs. Blood stains covered the walls and lead me to my destination along with the screams.
"No, no-o-o-o-o!"
I finally realized who was screaming for help and it was none other than Apple, but once I was able to find her, it was too late. There she hung by her neck, the rope strapped to the ceiling as 6 Ventriloquists stood by her, but once I arrived they turned into a black mist and vanished. My heart began racing, so much blood in this room it was not even believable.
"How... how did this happen...?"
What became of Travis and James if Apple had died? Or was she able to escape herself?
Once again, my Instincts activated.
I saw Apple run into this room, panting and coughing on the floor. "Okay... I think I got away from the..." she was cut off short by strings attaching to green and white body, she began to rise off the ground, screaming in fear. The Ventriloquists began to ram her against all of the walls, breaking her bones and scraping her blood everywhere.
Next the Ventriloquists smashed her head into a piece of glass on the floor causing her to let out the scream which led me to her.
I tried to shut my eyes, but the vision would not let me, the Ventriloquists bashed her head against the ceiling several times, "No, no-o-o-o-o!"
They wrapped it up by hanging Apple with their own strings as they all surrounded her then that is when I ran inside.
The vision had ended and my heart rate and breathing went back to normal.
"No... I'm not believing this, Constantine, this is another hallucination, isn't it?!" I yelled, trying to keep tears from falling out of my eyes. There was no response, only the sound of the rope gently rotating back and forth and the sounds of blood spilling from Apple's mouth.
"Hey!" a woman yelled from across the room, a PEF soldier, special force by the look of it. All black protective suit on with certain features. She did not wear a helmet like the rest of them, she had pale skin, dark blue eyes, and dark brown hair fashioned in a long ponytail. I pointed my rifle at her but did not respond.
"Please... please, let me go with you..." she whimpered, going down on her knees and dropping her weapon, "I... I just want to get out of here alive so I can see my children again..."
I slowly walked towards her, trying not to alarm her. I gave her my paw, she grabbed it and I pulled her up off the ground, "Can you understand me?" I asked, making sure that she had the device that translates the Pokemon language to English, "Yes, sir" she responded.
"Will you go with me, I have a mission to complete here and I'm not going until I finish it"
"You must be very brave, but I'm not going to lie to you, it is not smart to stay in this place anymore, too many deaths have occurred here and I do not want to be the next!!" she responded, hyperventilating and crying.
"Shh, shh, shh" I cooed, "Calm down, what is your name?"
"Lindsey Ryans" she responded, wiping incoming tears with her fingers.
"Well Lindsey, I have a few comrades trapped in this place, I need to get them out before they end up like this one I failed to rescue..." I explained as I pointed at Apple hanging there by her neck.
Lindsey let out a groan of disgust, "Fine, fine, I'll help you, but who are you trying to find exactly?"
"His name is Timmy, he's an Eevee and..."
"An Eevee, I know exactly where he would be, the sooner we find him, the better"
Lindsey led the way, picking up her rifle and switching on the flashlight, walking into the one doorway in this room that we have not walked through or come out of.
While we moved across a seemingly harmless hallway, I decided to ask Lindsey some questions about what is really happening here, I was still a tiny bit confused on this whole situation.
"Well... first thing is first, for me to address you properly, I kind of need to know your name" Lindsey said in a calm and friendly tone, she seems to calm down pretty easily, but then again she is a trained soldier, she must have just lost it back there, good thing I was there or who knows what she would have done.
"Ooh, you got me there, Jherek Kuhn is my name"
"Ah, Jherek Kuhn, what a lovely name" she responded, I was still impressed how fast she became calm, maybe it was because now she had some company in this horrifying place, there is nothing worse than traveling by yourself in a place like this, it is always best to have someone watching your back.
"Well, Jherek, this testing facility, um, Nightraven I believe it is called, capture Pokemon in this area around Rustboro city to experiment on them and whatnot, but ever since Rustboro was invaded by two Anriu Pokemon they have blocked off all exits around this area, making all survivors shut off from the rest of Hoenn. I am a soldier from a rescue team that was sent to this place in order to find out what the hell is happening here, and now we know, but I was separated from the rest of my team and their plan is to take down the core of this facility, destroying everyone and everything here..."
I was shocked when she told me that her team is going to destroy this place which means I have less time than I thought.
"Consider ourselves 'Left for Death'"
For some unexplained reason, this hallway was triggering some early memories of my childhood, but why, I have never been here before.
Then these words slowly echoed through my mind, "This place is your origin... but time has slowly withered what memories you have had in this place..."
I decided to speak nothing of this disturbing event, I refuse to be called a schizophrenic Zangoose for I have my sanity and I am proud of it. That voice was so vivid though, was I really having a schizophrenic moment or was this something else?
A loud crash of boxes hitting the floor startled me, putting me back on my guard, "Pokemon Elimination Force Prism Unit, come out peacefully or I will resort to violence!" Lindsey yelled blankly ahead, "Shut the fuck up!" a man yelled, his voice deep and gruff. He charged out of a nearby room with a large plank equipped on his right arm and a trashcan lid equipped on his left hand. He had dark brown hair and pale skin which was completely covered in dirt and urine and he wore a white shirt and black shorts with PEF boots.
Lindsey and I opened fire on the man. He took almost 15 bullets before collapsing to the floor with a loud crack from his neck and the loud sounds of the plank and lid hitting the ground.
She walked over to him and knelt down, checking his face as I watched from behind, "This man was a PEF soldier..." she whispered.
"Then what the hell happened to him...?"
"This place must have gotten to him, he must have lost his mental stability..."
"I hope we do not see more of this..."
Lindsey stood up straight once again and continued past the hallway which now seemed as if it goes on forever. Just how big was this entire place?
"I haven't been able to get a clear answer to this question from all of the other people I have traveled with in this horrid place, but where exactly do the PEF soldiers keep all of the Eevees?" I asked, hoping for a good answer this time instead of just plain directions.
"There is a large vault down lower in this level" she started which gave me evidence that Sparks was going the wrong way, if only I could contact him and give him this information, "This place is bigger than you know, so don't get surprised when you see the place" she gave a kind laugh which made me feel a bit calmer myself. To actually speak to a PEF soldier in a kind manner really helped me a lot in this whole situation and really changed my view on their entire force. They are all normal people, not evil demons.
The hallway finally came to and end with a fork going left and right, Lindsey chose the left when I began going right, so I decided to follow her for she seemed to know exactly where she was going, but once we took that turn, the same voice from before gave me another message.
"You do not know the pain the Anriu had gone through to become almighty, I have always lived in Diranus since time began and the 3 realms were created, Xerxanus, Diranus, and V'rixxa all residing in different forms of planet Earth, while Lord Anriu was just a normal Pokemon, tested in Mixxa 10. I know for this is when I took the body of a Weavile, very strong indeed. Lord Anriu had been dead for 2 years before they had noticed, I resurrected her dead body... and she destroyed them all with the intensity or pure rage..."
I stopped suddenly and tried to regain my sanity, my paranoia was setting in for I had no one to explain to me how this was happening.
Was I going crazy?
"Wait, Lindsey" I said when I saw a door to my right that somehow triggered some memoires, "I need to see what is inside of here"
She positively responded and I opened the door slowly, what was inside did not frighten me. It resembled a normal hospital room, but it triggered another reaction of my Instincts, but this one was unusual by the looks of it.
I saw myself being picked up by a Zangoose with a black Anriu robe on accompanied by an Espeon also with this robe, his fur completely black and dark red just like mine when I activate my Anriu abilities, but something was familiar about this Zangoose, I could not quite put my finger on it.
"My baby, give him back!" a female Zangoose yelled from behind me, I heard myself cry at that moment, "This Zangoose... he is the one... the one who has a soul pure enough to hold both of feuding realm's abilities, the Anriu and the Guardians abilities at the same time, he has what it takes to be a Guardian Sentinel... AND an Anriu Dark Lord... but we must let him choose his destiny, if pressured, he will become weak..." the Zangoose said, and that is when I realized who this Zangoose was.
"Lucifer..."
"Please, give me back my baby!" the female yelled once again, "Silence, Lord Lucifer requires your baby and so he shall have him!" the male Espeon yelled as a response.
"Ah, don't be so harsh on the little lady... she has given birth to a very powerful Zangoose... more powerful than she will ever know..." Lucifer said as his Third Eye opened up and stared me in the face, causing me to cry louder.
"Take him to the Kuhn clan, they will raise him in the way of the Anriu, only then he will be one with the Anriu willingly..."
Lucifer took me away from the female Zangoose, "Say goodbye to mommy... if you please..." Lucifer whispered into my ears cruelly.
"My... mom...?"
"No-o-o-o-o, please give him back to me!" she cried, "... my baby..."
But on to present matters, I am not sure what happened to Cameron but I had an even bigger problem on my hands, I was alone in this place with no backup or anything, completely exposed in this establishment which holds so much evil in its interior.

I saw myself being picked up by a Zangoose with a black Anriu robe on accompanied by an Espeon also with this robe, his fur completely black and dark red just like mine when I activate my Anriu abilities, but something was familiar about this Zangoose, I could not quite put my finger on it.

"Lucifer..."
"Please, give me back my baby!" the female yelled once again, "Silence, Lord Lucifer requires your baby and so he shall have him!" the male Espeon yelled as a response.
"Ah, don't be so harsh on the little lady... she has given birth to a very powerful Zangoose... more powerful than she will ever know..." Lucifer said as his Third Eye opened up and stared me in the face, causing me to cry louder.
"Take him to the Kuhn clan, they will raise him in the way of the Anriu, only then he will be one with the Anriu willingly..."
Lucifer took me away from the female Zangoose, "Say goodbye to mommy... if you please..." Lucifer whispered into my ears cruelly.
"My... mom...?"
"No-o-o-o-o, please give him back to me!" she cried, "... my baby..."
