Leo
I steadied myself as explosions shook the ground beneath my feet. Bullets whizzed by my ears, forcing me behind a car. I built the electricity in my finger tips. Waiting until a brief moment of clear, I popped from behind cover and fired off the thunder in a wide arc, hitting several soldiers. I checked my surroundings again. My earpiece buzzed, followed by the monotone voice that was ever-present.
"Second house on the right, second floor." I dashed inside, keeping a charge of electricity flowing. I ignoring the first floor, I ran upstairs. I stalked quietly among the rooms, checking each was clear. The earpiece buzzed again. "All the rooms are clear, save the last down the hall. It is on your left. We read five life-forms."
I adjusted my course, heading straight down the hall, building a thunderbolt as I went. Before I reached the door way I stopped. I took one deep breath and pushed an arm in, firing the charge of power. I walked in after, spraying small volts out to paralyze any survivors.
I stopped when I realized the room was empty. On the other end a table was over turned. I looked around confused. I pushed a finger into the earpiece, activating the microphone.
"Silph, you said there were five targets. This room is empty." There was a long pause.
"We never said anything about targets. We said very specifically, five life forms." The realization sunk in slowly for me.
I nearly ran to the table, which I could see had a burn mark through its center. I threw it aside. Hiding behind it was a large form under a blanket. I jammed my finger into the earpiece again.
"Innocents, Silph? You made me kill innocents?" There was no pause this time.
"This was not meaningless violence, this kill was meant to aid you in your longer journey." I froze. They meant these people had some connection to me?
"Who is under that blanket, Silph?" They didn't respond at all this time. The blanket, I noticed, had another burn through it. I grabbed hold and pulled it off. There was a moment of confusion when it was airborne, then another when I saw the corpses. I collapsed to the floor when the full realization hit me, the weight of it driving me to my knees.
"You had me kill my family..." I whispered to no one. In front of me were the corpses of my mother and four sisters. There faces were frozen in masks of fear and pain, there bodies burned from the electricity. I shuffled forward, tentatively trying to cradle the youngest. Her charred limbs crackled in protest. The earpiece buzzed.
"It was for the best. They were a distraction to your training. We do hope you understand we are terribly sorry." The monotone proved nothing. At that moment, as the tears rolled down my face unheeded, I made a vow. In my head it was almost audible, the twisting and snapping of my sanity. I vowed to make them pay. They would get their due for their crimes, all of them.
I woke in a cold sweat, holding my hands over my eyes. I slowly brought my mind back to consciousness, shaking off the dream like a wet towel. The reality of it, however, was not so easily forgotten. I shook slightly from shock. Taking a deep breath I composed myself enough to look about the room I was in.
I was sitting in a pink, frilly bed, and around me were more articles of pink horror. The plain white walls were covered head to toe in pink picture frames, pink shelves holding pink stuffed pokemon, even a pink book shelf filled with pink bound books. The pink dresser next to the bed was covered with perfumes, ribbons, and make-up. I shuddered, and was about to stand when the door I front of me was violently kicked open.
A girl marched in holding a tray of pancakes, followed closely by a small pokemon. She looks strangely familiar,I thought, but I just can't place it. Maybe she is an actress? No, wait. Now I remember. She helped me in that forest. Wonder why?
"Good morning." She said, "Hope you slept well, you were pretty beat up when I brought you in." I frowned.
"Where am I?" I asked. She smiled warmly.
"This is my house. Your in the guest bed. So, who are you? All I know is your name is Leo, and your obviously not human." I looked away, not wanting to answer the very simple questions.
"No, I'm not human, at least not entirely. I have a history I would rather not revisit anytime soon, so don't expect one from me. Now, have you told anyone I'm here, or has anyone seen me?" Terra dumbly shook her head. "Alright, are those pancakes?" She sighed and pushed them forward.
Without waiting I grabbed a fork and started eating. My mouth exploded with flavor. The syrup was between every pancake, mixed with melted butter, and I swear there was chocolate chips in there.
"So what are you exactly? If it doesn't involve your 'history'." I continued eating while I thought.
"Well I'm half human, and half pikachu, but that's kinda obvious. Arceus, these are good pancakes!" I said between bites of delicious pancake heaven, "I was made as a war machine by Silph Co., but that isn't really me so I left them. These are fricken' delicious! They weren't to happy about that and tried to kill me. Then I ended up here. I hope you have more of these, cause I'm having an orgasm in my mouth!" I continued eating. Terra thought for a moment, opening and closing her mouth before finding the words.
"I thought you weren't going to give me a history, why are you telling me this? Won't it jeopardize your secretiveness or something?" I stopped eating. Looking down I slowly lowered the fork to the plate. I felt the air around me chill, shadows growing deeper.
"What I just told," I emphasized each word, "doesn't even scratch the surface of my history." I growled out the last word for effect. Brightening up slightly, I continued. "And I don't mind telling you because I'm going to wipe your memory of me ever being here anyway." Terra's face darkened.
"I'll leave you to eat then. Come on Ember." The little chimchar, Ember, bounced out of the room after her trainer.
I continued to eat while thinking about what to do about my keepers. The pancakes were making it hard to focus. So delicious! I really could wipe their memories, but I have no control over how much they forget. They might forget everything about themselves, or maybe just that I even tried to erase their memories. It was to left chance. The best option would be kill them, or force them into silence. I don't want to kill them, so silence is the only option. I better go before these pancakes rob me of my sanity. My taste buds are dancing!
I ran down the hall to where I could here Ember and Terra talking. I stopped just out side the door and built an electric charge in my body. When I was ready I stepped in, releasing a condensed thunderstorm around me. I smiled at Terra and Ember's shocked faces.
"Listen, I don't want to have to get rid of your memories, to risky, so we will make a deal. You will agree to say nothing, and I won't kill you violently and painfully. Do we have deal?" I continued to fire electricity in a dazzling display of power. Suddenly Terra screamed, breaking my focus.
"Would you put some damned clothes on, you sicko!" I saw the vase flying at my face. Hey, that sorta rhymed. Crap, forgot to move!
Terra
The mighty half-breed, done in by a ordinary flower vase. Ember was laughing her ass off.
"Shut up Ember, it's not that funny. Help me put him back up stairs, and then we're going to the pokemart." We carried him up, got dressed, and left quickly. We didn't want to be there when he woke up, especially of he was mad... and still naked. The Pokemart was about a 15 minute walk away from my home. So I used the time to organize my thoughts.
"What should we do about our mysterious, and possibly dangerous, patient?" Terra asked Ember tentatively.
"You forgot to mention well hung." Ember retorted.
"Shut up. I'm not thinking that of the man, and I'm saying man because he seems more man than pokemon, after the way he threatened me."
"So you thought of him that way BEFORE he threatened you." It wasn't a question.
"Shut up again. I live alone with a FEMALE pokemon and my imagination. I get bored. And when I get a near perfect model of the male body I... lose myself?"
"I'm your best friend, you don't need to hide anything from me."
"Really, he terrifies me. He has unbelievable power and could use it at any time."
"Just keep a vase on hand and you'll be fine." We both shared a laugh at this.
"Lets just focus on what size he is now." She said as they walked through the sliding glass doors of the pokemart.
"We already know what size he his, extra large." Ember said giggling and blushing. She was quickly thrown into a shelf of potions.
"SHUT UP!"
Leo
I awoke in the same bed, and in the same room. But now I had a large bump on my head and on the dresser next to me was a pair of large bags from the pokemart. When I looked inside I was happy to find clothes, and lots of them.
I pulled out a pair of loose fitting cargo pants, black with a red strip across the knees. They were a size to big, but I also found a belt in the same bag. There were several other pairs of pants, but none of them caught my eye. In the second bag were plain shirts of all different sizes and colors. I picked a good-fitting red one put it on. There was alos a pair of shoes with socks, but I ignored them, not really needing tennis shoes.
I walked out into the living room, fully clothed, and sat down across from Terra, who was watching the news without actually watching it.
"So, did you get me these clothes?" She nodded absently. "Hey, I don't mean to be rude, but... can you make some more of those pancakes?" She looked up then, a little in shock.
"What?" I cocked my head slightly and enunciated each syllable.
"CAN. YOU. MAKE. ME. PAN. CAKES?" She stared at me in disbelief, can't imagine why.
"I am not your slave! Make your own damn pancakes!" I growled and pointed at my head.
"You hit me with a vase!" She stuck her tongue out at me.
"You walked in on a conversation naked."
"That wasn't my fault, you took my clothes. Just make some pancakes before I kill you!" I shouted. I couldn't believe how angry I was getting over pancakes. Terra calmly stood and lifted me by the arm.
"I think it is time you left." She dragged me kicking and screaming to the front door, and promptly shoved me into the streets. I rolled to my feet and glared as she slammed her front door. Suddenly a woman screamed, and I looked around confused.
I was in the middle of the street, being stared at by hundreds of people, and a woman got scared and screamed. Great, now they all probably think I attacked someone. Not hesitating, I took off running through the crowd, avoiding reaching hands. The mob continued to follow me long after I was out of sight, forcing to me to keep running.
Damn you Terra!
Terra
I was fuming around the house, getting ready for my shift at the pokemon center. I was absolutely furious with Leo for the way he treated me after I might have saved his life. Ember watched as I paced back and forth, angrily grabbing my nurse's uniform and various clip boards and papers.
"I can't believe he would be that selfish. I saved him from who knows what. Now he has the nerve to not even thank me for the new clothes, or saving his worthless life. I should have left him where I found him. He doesn't deserve the kindness I showed him. What was I thinking? Pancakes? Is that how you would thank someone Ember? Well?" I finished my rant out of breath. I looked at Ember expectantly who was staring at me with glazed eyes. She snapped back to reality as she realized she was the center of attention again.
"I think... your going to be late for work." Ember responded, she wasn't really listening and got lucky when she noticed the clock.
"You weren't paying attention, were you?"
"I zoned out at 'can't believe' in all honesty."
"Your the best." I said sarcastically as I ran out to the pokemon center.Chapter End Notes:Like I said, new chapters will be posted at about 2 a clock everyday until I get caught up with myself in existing chapters. Thanks for reading and leave a comment please
