Shadow-
I glanced over the ledge, eyes, drifting from detail to detail. I stepped closer.
This is it, I thought to myself, No turning back now.
One step after another, I finally found myself on the edge of this towering cliff. Mt. Grena. I wonder how the trainers down there would react if I just landed in front of them. Would they run out of fear of being pinned for murder? Or would they just stand there, wondering what had driven me so far?
"Shadow? Where are you?"
Great, I thought, Of all of the people, he's the one leading the 'rescue squad'.
"Shadow, c'mon, just- oh no…"
I looked over my shoulder. VK was standing there, as much of a nervous wreck as he usually is. He looked over at the Pokèballs sitting on the ground next to him. My Pokèballs. Only five were there. That was all I had.
Now, I had turned to face him completely. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. It's all his fault. He charged head first, He got me here. He stepped forward, so I stepped away. One last step was all I needed to plummet down to my grim fate. He grabbed a Pokèball off of his belt, ready to send out one of his partners to save me.
I didn't give him the chance.
It was a free fall. If I was going to go out, I figured I would rather enjoy my last moments. I remembered everything that had gotten me here. That stupid, naive kid from two years ago, dying to have her first Pokémon.
That stupid, naive kid who would tackle any challenge head on, and, with the help of her friends, she would always come out on top.
That stupid, naive kid who saved the world from an organization more ruthless than anything she had ever seen.
That stupid, naive kid who just fell off of a cliff.
