AM I BEAUTIFUL
CAPTURED
What exactly am I, all I know is I am a green creature with s yellow face and slits for eyes that somehow allow me to see but I can't open them. The creatures I call my parents are dark green and regular green with crimson eyes and hair as white as snow. Each of their eyes are a piercing crimson. Their hands are bouquets of roses, one blue the other red. To unfamiliar eyes one could say they are downright scary. I am a Pokémon, that's what I am constantly called by every other creature I meet. From what I've heard, I am a Budew and my parents are Roserade.
I don't know how to defend myself but my parents decided to teach me after they saw me release a Solarbeam, I guess I was born with the fighting abilities of my father and the beautiful charm of my mother. I don't like fighting Pokémon though, I find myself to be quite the peaceful. Then again what do I know, I only know I am a newborn Budew. My father is a rather tall Roserade with a scar over his left eye and he always has a scowl on his face, I guess he is never happy. My mom is a rather short Roserade with cheeks that are always rosy and a nice body for a walking flower stand. I, in case you're wondering, am a female Budew without a clue as to what I am going to do with myself. I guess I could give you a sort of autobiography of my life.
"She just released a Solarbeam on our house, of course she is ready, Aileen!" I heard my dad yell at my mom.
"No, my daughter shouldn't be brought up feeling she needs to fight all the time, Ralph!" my mom yelled back. It was clear that they were arguing over it being my time to get trained.
"Okay I got it," started dad, "how about I train with her on offensive and you do defensive?"
My mom furrowed her brow at this suggestion and sighed. "I don't like this one bit Ralph, but I suppose it is what is best for Marissa."
"Good, Marissa come with me," my dad said sounding satisfied. He took me to the back yard and told me to release everything I had on him, which wasn't much. I tried to gain energy, but in reality I was just making my face red. However, I did feel a surge of energy going through me and before I knew it I released and odd, purple liquid from my body. At first I thought I had used the bathroom on myself. My father then told me I had attacked him with a sludge bomb and that was a move I inherited from him. Next I tried to use it again but ended up releasing another powerful Solarbeam, which was completely missed by my father.
"You've got some nice moves, that comes from me, but your aim is worse than your mother's." I heard dad say. "This is how it's done," he said before releasing a Solarbeam on the ground to my left which created a deep, dragged crater in the ground. "Go see your mother, we'll try this again tomorrow Marissa." He said as I was leaving.
"Morning Marissa, are you ready for defensive training?" my mom asked me.
"How would I go about doing defensive training?" I asked her rather inquisitively.
"It's pretty easy, I attack, you dodge."
"Mmkay…" was all I could manage to say before my mom struck me head on with an energy ball. I staggered back to my feet to see a magical leaf heading towards me with a quickening pace. I started running as fast as I could away from it, to only notice that it was following me and getting even faster so I started to zigzag and spin a little bit. I was trying to see if I could trick this homing attack, but to no avail, it hit me dead in my back sending me spiraling only to land at my mother's feet.
"Good job sweetie, you did better than I expected, however you cannot outrun a magical leaf."
"Then why did you make me try to outrun it, you a… you know what, I'm going to go get some air." I said and stormed off.
"Make sure you don't get captured by any trainers!" I heard my mom yell.
"Piss off! You don't even give a damn!" I screamed as I wondered off into the wilderness
After about a half hour of walking I came to an abandoned building, you know what I'm talking about, like a Pokémon cemetery or something. I saw mainly Gastly and Shuppet, With an occasional family of Sableye. It was creepy, but I was too angry to think.
"Dumb ass motherfuckers, thinking I am just a damn toy," I said angrily.
"A Pokémon!" I heard a voice, I think it is human. "A Budew by the sound of it, yes I need another baby Pokémon!"
I snapped hearing this, "Baby!? I am certainly no baby and my name is Marissa!"
"I found it!" I heard a Magby yell to the human.
"Did you find him Magby?" I heard the human yell. It was clear from his response he didn't understand Pokémon. He rushed to my location and said, "Wow, I always thought Budew were, I don't know, cuter."
"C-Cuter, this face is adorable!" I yelled.
"Cure red pull ticket dishes butt," this human said mocking my language. "Now, Magby use Fire Punch!"
The next thing I knew I was knocked backward with a burning sensation. I got back to my feet like it was nothing and started gathering energy from anywhere I could get. I saw Magby rushing at me with the previously used attack, so I jumped out the way. Then I used Solarbeam on the Magby and did some significant damage. I felt exhausted from releasing that energy and then I felt a burning fist connect with my face. The Magby hit me with another fire punch. I was knocked to the ground and this time I couldn't get up. He then tossed some red and white orb at me which hit my head and released a translucent ray of red that soon engulfed my body. "What a ugly creature…" the human mutter as I was engulfed in the orb. I tried to resist but could not gather the energy to. I soon succumbed to the power and fell asleep.
