The Bird Bros: Max and Terry
Disclaimer: Pokémon isn't mine.
Summary: A group of interconnected one-shots on the Pokémon Kingdom - and their struggle for survival.
Max didn't know what to think of his new family.
Hermione, a Delphox, was nice, but her magic was kind of scary.
Cissy, a Sylveon, was really pretty, but she was a fighter and she acted like it. The only 'Mon she was gentle with was the Prince.
Prince Puff was a fun and normal acting Jigglypuff, but sometimes he got this look in his eyes, one of sadness, but determination.
Moonlet was a childish and stubborn Deino who never wanted to fight. Max didn't think he liked Moonlet and vice versa.
CHF, a tough Warturtle, was alright, but really intimidating. He was an excellent fighter and teacher.
And what were we?
"What's wrong, Max?"
Max snapped to attention and turned to his twin brother, Terry.
"It's just…what do you think of them?" Max asked.
Terry knew what Max meant and he smiled.
"They're our new family, Max. Hermoine is our Mother, Cissy our Protector, the Prince our Hope, Moonlet our Jester, and the Captain is our Strategist.
Max blinked at this optimistic view of them. Terry had always been the cheery one, despite the fact they shared a body. You see, they were the Pokémon Doduo. Some might find being literally stuck to you brother horrifying, but they were both glad. That meant that they'd never be forced to part, despite the dangerous world they lived in. They'd always have each other.
Then what are we? Max thought wonderingly.
Terry had always been able to guess what Max was thinking.
"We," Terry said with a determined look in his eyes, "are their Helpers."
Max looked at his new family with a new light.
"Yeah," he said to Terry.
"I guess we are."
