Everyone Has A Choice?~
Chocolate Brown Eyes
Ca.1 ~ Present Times
It was a rainy night in the Kanto region, the only thing you could see was the sky. Inside the Kanto region there was a small town that you could hardly call a city because it was, so small, the city was the peaceful Pallet Town.
In Pallet Town there was a white house that had a red roof, in the house, so lived the single mother Delia Ketchum. The brown-haired woman looked down at her beloved son that she held in her arms, the two-month old boy lay quietly in his mother's safe arms.
Of course, so had Delia had a boyfriend but after an "accident" when they had had their fun in the bed, Delia became pregnant, when she had told her boyfriend that and he had gets angry. He had said he did not want a kid and that Delia should abortion her baby, Delia had refused and fled from the man she has loved. Delia had been hiding in the small Pallet Town because that she thought her boyfriend would not find her there, so far had it works.
Delia loved her son with all her heart, she knew that her son would change the world. Delia Ketchum's baby began to whine, the brown-haired mother smiled down at her son and put a comforting hand on the boy's cheek. Something that Delia had discovered that was unusual with her son was that he had a flash on both sides on both of his cheeks, but Delia did not care about her son's "strange" birthmarks. She loved him and nothing can take it away from her, nothing.
But without anyone knowing it, so it was a lot of men with a red "R" on their breasts at the top of a hill and looked down on the town, in the middle of all the men stood their leader. Their leader was wearing an orange suit and had his most believed cat Pokémon beside him, he looked down at all the little houses.
"Oh Delia, did you really think you could hide from me?" Said he with a mischievous smile, he knew that soon he would be reunited with his angel.
Some of the leader's men stood in front of him, waiting for an order of what they would do, none of them knew why their boss would like to come to one of these small town.
"Tap each house and find Delia Ketchum." he ordered his men, all his men ran to the various houses and made that their boss had told them. They would find Delia Ketchum and bring her to their boss, Team Rocket's boss.
Delia squirt when she heard the thunder, then she heard a few quiet sobs from her newly awakened son. Delia took her hand her son's cheek and started to sing, the boy opened his chocolate brown eyes and smiled when he heard his mother's beautiful singing. The boy took the strong hold of his mother's finger and refused to let she go, Delia laughed at her son when he hold her finger.
When Delia looked into her son's brown eyes as she felt safe, she knew that her boy would not walk in his father's footsteps. A few weeks after Delia has fled from her boyfriend, she had been told what his job was for something, he had been Team Rocket's boss.
Delia is so happy that she has escaped from her boyfriend, she can't believe that her son would become a murderer or a criminal. She wanted her son would grow up to be a fine, healthy boy with a normal life, it was her greatest desire in the world.
"Hey little guy, my name is Delia and I'm your mother." Delia looked into her son's eyes and began to think of his name to the little boy, but what name would suit her son?
"Your hair is black as black ash, that's what I'm going to name you to. Your name is Ash, Ash Ketchum." Said Delia proud, she was so proud to call her little Ash for her son. Delia looked down at the little boy, she looked for an "approval" from the boy's new name, she did not want to give him a bad name some like "Butch".
"Do you like the name "Ash"?" Asked Delia her newly named son, the boy whined "happily". It was not the usual "sorry" whining that her son used to do, it was a joyful noise that caused her to smile.
"I take that as a yes." Delia laughed when she started to weaken her Ash, the boy slowly closed his tired eyes and fell asleep. When Delia had left her boyfriend, she had been so scared and worried about getting a son in such a young age, but now she is happy that she found her son in that moment.
She loved her son more than her own life, she would give her life if it was the only way to save her Ash.
On a hill stood the man who was Team Rocket's boss and patted his Persian, Team Rocket's boss looked down on the town and has a smile that could scare anyone. The man knew that somewhere in the city, so hid his girlfriend with his son, the son he did not want.
"You will steam the day you left me for that kid's sake, soon Delia will you be mine again." Whispering the man in the wind, it was just like if he wished that his words would come to the woman he loved. Team Rocket's boss just wanted Delia, not his son.
Delia dared her sleeping baby when she heard that there was someone who knocked on her front door, whoever it was who knocked on the door knocked very hard.. Delia stood up and walked carefully to the door, she held her sleeping boy in her protective arms. Delia did not understand why someone would knock on the door, so late? Maybe it was Professor Oak who wanted to talk to her, but why would he knock, so hard on the door?
When Delia opened the door she saw a man but it was not that as scared her, it was when she saw the big red "R" on the man's chest as she became afraid. She had really thought that she had escaped from her former life with Team Rocket's boss, but it seemed as if she was wrong, for here she was standing in front of a Team Rocket's members.
"Delia Ketchum you will come with me, my boss wants to talk to you." Said the man in front to the terrified woman, he smiled down at the quiet sleeping boy. So the rumors had been true with his boss, their boss was a father.
Obviously Delia not wanted to talk to the man who wanted her to kill her little Ashie, she attempted a valiant attempt to close the door, but unfortunately the man had put his foot down in one place so that she could not close the door. The man took hold Delia's arm so she could not escape, Delia looked into the man's eyes and could not see anything..
"Delia, you will not get away from me so easily." The man forced the struggling woman to go out the door, Delia who was afraid of her son's safety did not dare fight back. She was afraid that if she fought, so would the awful man hurt her son, she could not risk her son's safety.
Delia was forced up on a hill that was a few feet away from her hometown, on the top of the hill, she could see the man that she had leave. The man who had forced her here shoved up her so that she was face to face with Team Rocket's boss, she held her baby tightly in her arms.
"Oh Delia my angel, have you missed me?" Asked Team Rocket's boss the angry mother, Delia stood on all three so that her beautiful brown hair concealed her hate-filled eyes.
"Giovanni.." Where the only thing that Delia could say, she wanted to get away from this man. Delia sat up, she did not remove her hair that hid her eyes.
"I'm glad you still remember me, I was afraid that my lovely angel would have forgotten me after such a long time apart." Giovanni said with a little sadness in his voice, he went closer to the woman he loved and used his finger to remove the hair that hid her eyes. The eyes that he had fallen in love.. Could not he see, these eyes were full of hate.
"What do you want from me?" Delia whispered with fear, but also with persistence, Delia could not understand that this man had been her love.. But now she saw a man who would fit to be the evil villain in any movie, series or maybe even in a fanfiction?
"Delia, you must understand the only thing I want is everything to be like before the freak came." Giovanni explained calmly as he began stroking the brown-haired woman's cheek, Delia pulled her head away from Giovanni's hand and stared angrily at him. How dare he talk about her Ash like that?! Ash was not a freak, Ash was absolutely perfect and wonderful!
Giovanni gave one of his men a look that all of them knew, the man went behind Delia and Delia forced to stand up. The man was holding Delia so that she would not be able to protest over what their boss would do, Giovanni went closer to Delia, so that he could even feel her warm breath.
Giovanni looked down at the boy who had made his whole life a living hell, he took Ash from his mother's arms and glared at the boy began to wake. Delia who was terrified that Giovanni would harm her children started screaming and fighting but the man who held her arms held her down on the spot she stood, she prayed to Arceus that Giovanni would not hurt her little Ash.
The boy who had been lying quietly in a strange man's arms immediately began screaming for his mother, Giovanni panicked. Unless the boy was silenced soon then the whole Pallet Town wake up, Giovanni began to yell at the young boy but of course so it did not help.
"Shut up young fucker!" Giovanni shouted angrily at the crying boy, all the men around their boss started to wrinkle their foreheads when they saw how he treated a little baby. Giovanni was so frustrated by the crying boy was not silent, Team Rocket's boss put his hand in front of the screaming boy's mouth.
"Giovanni, have you no heart?! He is just a baby! Give him to me, so I can calm him down." Said Delia horrified, she could not bear to see her son be treated like this. Giovanni looked down at the boy who started to choke on the big hand that was in front of the boy's mouth, then he looked into Delia's eyes.
"Please.." She whispered with kindness, Giovanni could see in Delia's eyes that she strangely loved this boy. Giovanni sighed and nodded to the man who was holding Delia to release her, less than a second later, Delia knew how the man had released his grip.
Delia went to Giovanni and gently took her baby away from the man who had treated her boy so badly, Delia stood on the side of Giovanni and began to weaken the crying boy.
When Ash opened his brown eyes he saw not the creepy man, he saw the kind woman that she had called herself his mother. Ash began to smile and slowly closed his eyes, Delia took her hand gently on her son's cheek to wipe away the tears.
Without Delia or anyone else saw it so Giovanni smiled, he had always known that Delia was going to be a fantastic mother, but he had been selfish and have wanted Delia to himself. Then Giovanni began to wonder why he had come here, then he remembered. He had come here because he wanted his angel back, he could not back out now.
Giovanni snatched away the sleeping boy from his mother and held the boy with one arm, in his other hand he held a pistol that was directed against Delia. Delia looked horrified at the gun, since then she looked at her calmly sleeping son slept in Giovanni's arm.
"Delia I will only say this once, I want to live with you without someone else. I love you with my heart and I want you to loves me back, you are only main! Nothing will destroy our love, especially not a kid that I never wanted!" Cried Giovanni in the woman's face, Delia looked at Giovanni with fear and anger.
"Giovanni is that all I am for you, I am a thing for you? Giovanni I am a living human with feelings, you can not control me!" Delia shouted angrily, she could not understand how Giovanni thinks that he can control a person.
"You will love me or I will kill you!" Cried Giovanni in blindness due to his anger, Delia took a breath before she could say anything that would surely get her killed.
"Then you get to kill me, I can not love someone like you. I do not want to live with you, I do not even want to breathe the same air as you! You're no longer the man I loved! You are a monster, an insensitive man, selfish and had a heart which is as colder than ice." Delia told the whole truth to the man she had been in love with, Delia could see the tears in Giovanni's eyes. The words that Delia had told Giovanni had made him speechless, it felt like someone stabbed him in his heart.
PANG
The shot from Giovanni's gun fired at Delia, she was shot in the stomach. Giovanni looked at Delia's body fell to the ground, he looked at the gun as it came out of the smoke and dropped the gun so that it fell to the ground. He could not understand that he really had killed his only love, he looked down at the woman who breathes heavily.
The boy Giovanni was holding one of his hands was awakened by the gun had been fired, Ash looked up and saw that he was held by the scary man again. Ash immediately began to cry and scream, Giovanni looked down at his son and sighed irritably. Giovanni sat once more his hand in front of the boy's mouth, when Giovanni looked into those bright brown eyes on the boy he saw that the boy looked at him the same way as the boy's mother had done.
Delia lifted her head only to see that her son had Giovanni's hand over his mouth again, she looked on the side of her and saw a pistol as it came out of the smoke.. Giovanni had really shot her, she had never thought that he would have gone so far. Delia was so cold and she started to get a blurred picture of the world around herself.
"Ash… I love you.." Were her last shaking words before her sight was completely black and her head fell to the ground, Delia Ketchum was dead. She had told her son that she loved him before she died, she had really loved her son.
Giovanni could not hide his feelings when he saw the woman he loved died in front of him, but the worst thing was that it was he who had shot her, he had killed the only woman in the world that he had loved. A single tear ran down from Giovanni's eyes and landed on the boy's nose. Giovanni looked down at the boy who had finally stopped screaming and crying, he removed his hand from the boy's mouth and stared at him.
"So Delia named you to Ash?" Asked Giovanni the boy, he had heard Delia said that she loved someone named Ash. The boy who was in Giovanni's arms moaned and started sucking on his hand, Giovanni sighed and took that as a yes.
One of his men was doubtful until their boss to ask something, when the man saw Ash how adorable sucked on his own hand as he began to smile.. He could not understand what their boss could treat such a sweet boy so bad.
"Sir what should we do with .. The dead body?" The man asked hesitantly, he did not even look at the young woman's dead body. Giovanni looked at the dead body and sighed, he had not thought about what he would do with the dead body.
"We'll leave her here." Giovanni said as he tried not to show any emotion at all, but inside so he wept and screamed in grief. The man who spoke with Giovanni stared shocked at his boss, would they really leave a dead body like visible?!
"But the police will-" Tried the man to persuade his boss, but it did not go so well because that Giovanni frowned.
"Just do it!" Shouted Giovanni angry but when he heard that the annoying boy began to scream again, Giovanni had completely forgotten that he had a baby in his arms. Giovanni who had come on that the only way to get the boy was quietly taking his hand over the boy's mouth, Giovanni put his hand over the boy's mouth.
"Sir you should be quieter, otherwise the boy will shout." Said a woman that was one of Giovanni's best agents, she looked pity on the little boy who barely got any air.
"I DON'T CARE!" Giovanni shouted angrily, he hated when someone told him what he had to do and what he could not do. All his men were shocked at their boss's anger, they were accustomed to his outbursts but tonight he was extra angry and irritable.
"W-what are you gonna do with the boy ..?" Asked one of the men afraid, he was worried that his boss would fire him or maybe .. Kill him. Giovanni looked down at the boy who had fallen asleep with his hand over Ash's mouth, he actually did not know what he was going with the boy now when Delia was dead.
"You're not going to … To kill him?" Asked lots of Team Rocket's members, even if all of them were on the "bad side" , so they could not kill an innocent baby who slept. It would not be human to do something so cruel, Giovanni sighed annoyed by all the questions he had about the little boy.
Giovanni looked down at the boy who was asleep, he could see where his tears had flowed. Giovanni did not know what to do with the boy, the boy who has ruined his life, but Delia, his sweet angel had loved that boy with her heart.. Could he really kill Delia's baby, the last memory that Giovanni would have of his wonderful angel would be this boy. Could he really kill the boy who would be his last memory of Delia..?
"I'll take care of him .." Whispered Giovanni doubtful, all Team Rocket members stared in shock. Would really their boss take care of a baby, the boy Giovanni had been forced to silence with his hand in front of the boy's mouth?
"Umm.. Sir are you really s-"
"Yes, I am quite sure!" Giovanni said as he looked up at his men, he slowly looked down at the boy to hope that the boy had not woken up and was about to scream again. Luckily for Giovanni had not woken Ash, Giovanni sighted in relief.
"Okay if you're sure .. We'll go to the helicopter?" Giovanni nodded and walked away with his new son in his arms, he left the brown-haired woman lying dead on the hill.
"Welcome to Team Rocket." Said Giovanni when he looked down at his son.
