(Speech)= Thoughts (Speech)= Telepathy
"AAAAHHHH!" the riolu screamed as the machine it was strapped to shocked it with volts of electricity, a great amount of it.
"So, how is it looking?" a mysterious man asked a scientist as he walked into a room, glancing at the Riolu on the other side of a glass window.
"It doesn't look like we're making progress sir," the scientist answered.
"Up the shocks by 20," the man ordered.
"But sir, too much will kill her," the scientist stated.
"I don't care if its heart explodes, we need the "power of the aura" to take over Johto!" the man yelled.
"But-"
"Do it or I'll make sure you are strapped in that chair next," the man threatened. Knowing there's no way around it, he did as told, and to the riolu's dismay.
"-AAAAHHHH!" the Riolu screamed in pain. Lights were flashing tremendously in the man's and scientist's face.
"AAAHHH (echoed scream.)"
Later in a cell
The Riolu sat in the corner of a cell in a fetal position.
"(Raspy breathing)" the Riolu was strong, but somehow just didn't find the courage to fend for herself. Though she was beyond a breaking point, she decided that she wouldn't let them torment her anymore. She lifted her head off her knees, revealing her lapiz lazuli, blue eyes. Her pupils, being the normal black color they were, turned to red... red with rage. And if anything good came out of the torture, it was that the more damage equals a stronger aura.
"I've about had enough of this," the Riolu told herself via telepathically. She got up with a bit of a struggle and limped to the center of the cell. She faced towards the cement wall and got in a defensive stance. She put her hands to the side and began to charge an aura sphere. As it slowly grew bigger, a sharp pain suddenly occurred.
"Aah!" the Riolu shouted as she fell down on one knee, "(Heavy breathing)... Cmon, you can do this." The Riolu stood back up with yet a bit of a struggle. She got in the same stance as before. She then began to charge another aura sphere.
"Ok... focus," as she said those words, an aura sphere grew. She put all her strength and concentration into this attack because it, hopefully, led to her escape. She managed to make the same amount of progress as last time but just like last time, there came a sharp pain.
"AAHH!" she screamed but unlike last time, she didn't falter though the more the sphere grew, the more the pain grew.
"Cmon... it has to be bigger," the Riolu said to herself as a tear formed in her eye as the pain was getting to her. The aura sphere was engulfing her paws slowly but surely, all awhile a mysterious red tint grew around the center of the aura sphere but not quite mixing with the original blue color, it must be from her rage. Then suddenly, the sphere ceased to grow and a whirring sound soon followed.
"Perfect," the Riolu smirked, "Alright, it's all or nothing. HA!" the Riolu shouted as she launched the aura sphere at the wall. The sphere made contact with the wall and blew it to bits, debris flying everywhere.
"Now's my chance," the Riolu told herself as she heard an alarm signaling the facility about her soon to be escape. She jumped through the wall then made a mad dash for the gate. Little did she know that Mightyenas were hot on her trail.
"DON'T LET IT ESCAPE!" a man ordered. The Riolu then made it to the gate that was closed off.
"Damn it, now what?" the Riolu asked herself as she frantically searched for another escape. By some luck there was a hole under the fence to the side of the gate so she ran towards the said hole and began to crawl under it. She did, she was free... or so she thought.
"AAH!" the riolu shouted as she glanced at her leg and saw that a mightyena had a firm grip on her leg with a bite. The Riolu frantically kicked the Mightyena in attempt to escape.
"Let go!" she shouted but the Mightyena was dragging her in.
"I said let go!" the Riolu yelled as she aimed her paw at the mightyena and shot a small yet powerful aura sphere.
"(Yelp!)" the Mightyena cried as it lost its grip of the riolu. She then got from under the fence and quickly got off the ground but couldn't quite run due to her injury in her leg. She quickly limped her way to the woods knowing that she was as good as gone from that point. Back at the fence stood the mysterious man from before.
"Who knew a young Riolu stood so much trouble," he muttered as he patted the injured Mightyena on the head, "Let's get you fixed up," he said as he walked off with the Mightyena following. The Mightyena stopped and looked back with his good left eye then growled a vengeful growl then preceded to the facility.
