Delia Ketchums point of view

Professor Oak and I were on our way to Route one, when I spotted a boy starting to run with urgency down the road. It didn't look like he had any Pokemon with him and I thought he was insane. As we got closer I yelled for him to stop; he skidded to a halt and turned very slowly to face us and I could see that he was hurting inside. I started to get worried and decided to introduce myself.
"Hi! My name is Delia Ketchum And this is professor Oak, my friend. What's your name?"
He hesitated for a second and said, "Cyberius Klizer, but you can call me Cy."

Oaks pov

When I was studying this young man I noticed a scar running down his face. Then I saw him clutching his ribs as if they were hurting him. I was curious as to whether he had been abused as a kid And if he was, I was going to do something about it. When I heard his name, I gasped.
It couldn't be his son. It just couldn't! I thought. Hmm so he is still alive. This made me curious. Then I listened to Delia as she talked to the boy.
"Cy; that's a strong name!" I commented, when he told us his name. He glanced at me quickly be fore turning back to Delia. As he did I caught a glimpse of his eyes and saw something that I should never see in a child; that thing was pain and sadness, but as I looked deeper, I saw a child that could be extremely loyal and, if helped, he could find happiness. I walked up to him a looked in his eyes. "Why don't we go to my house so we can get you fixed up ok?" I said; he quickly backed up and looked at me with fear in his eyes, but then he looked at me in the eyes as if he was studying me to see if I was sincere. He then turned and did the same thing to Delia. When he saw we were being completely honest, Cy ran up to Delia, giving her a hug and crying hard. She immediately hugged him back and started comforting him.
"Hey Delia! Why don't you go to the lab while I run to your house to get Ash ok?" She nodded. Then she and Cy started walking to my lab, while I jogged to her house to get her 12 year old son.

Delia's POV

As professor Oak turned toward my house, me and Cy headed toward the lab. We walk in a comfortable silence until the lab came in view. I smiled at the young boy beside me gently and led him inside.
"So Cy, would you mind telling me a little about you?" his face went still and fearful. "You can trust me, Cy." he still looked apprehensive about me. I realized then that he wouldn't trust me right off the bat. I sat at one of the tables and thought about how I'd earn his trust.
"So, Cy, do you have any questions for me?" I asked cautiously. He sat across from me and crossed his arms as he leaned back in the seat, his muscles well defined. He paused, thinking.
"How old's your son?" he asked, his eyes assessing my reaction. I smiled warmly at him.
"Ash is only twelve, but he acts like he's fifteen!" I chuckled at the notion. He smiled as well. We sat there for about half an hour just chatting and him asking questions about me, Ash, and Oak. We stood up and started over to one of the habitat simulators and I started explaining things to him.
"And this knob is to control the-" I stuck out my hand, but accidentally hit his back hard. He hissed in pain, trying not to show it. I gasped and pulled my hand back quickly.
"Cyberius? What's wrong?" I asked anxiously holding his shoulders so I could look him in the eyes. Well, attempt to anyway. His eyes were clouded over in pain and his dark hair fell into his face a little. I pushed it back gently and led him to the spare bedroom Oak had prepared for anyone needing assistance.
"Cy, if you don't want to tell me I understand, but, please, tell someone what happened. I don't know how to help you if I-" I started explaining to him quietly until he threw his shirt off and I saw the huge scar across his back. The angry, jagged scar cut from the left side of his collarbone, to his right hip. I gasped, my hand flying to my mouth. He turned to face me again and held his face down. I walked to his side and wrapped my arms carefully around his toned body.
"Cy, please let me help you. Believe me, I don't want to hurt you. I can't help you unless you tell me what happened." I felt my tears flowing down my cheeks and he did, too, as they fell onto his head. He stiffened up and I chuckled a little, leading him over to the bed. I sat him down and got behind him, massaging the muscles to relax him.
"it-it was my mother; I wasn't supposed to have friends, especially not ones who were girls. My mother found out about her and threatened to beat her unless I stopped seeing her. When I told Gia about it, she got so angry and stormed off to my house. I tried to stop her but she was small and too fast for me. I got home to find her facing down my mom, and my mom was screaming at her about how much of a supposed jerk I was. She was screaming right back about how she thought I was awesome. I knew I had to stop this; I had grabbed Gia's arm and pulled her back to her house quickly and told her that she needed to stay away from me for her own safety. She cried and said she couldn't do that, but I had to go. That was the last time I saw her, and when I got home, my mom jumped on me and drug the knife through my back. It hurt like hell, but I couldn't show it, I couldn't show the pain. I couldn't fight her off. She's done that kind of stuff to me and that's why I have so many scars. She hates me, and I don't recall doing anything to earn that hate. It got to be too much, and I ran away. I can't stand her anymore." at this point, tears were falling silently down his face and it broke my heart. I held him as we cried silently together. Ten minutes later, I heard the door open and the voices of Ash and Oak excitedly talking about something. I looked back at Cyberius and saw that his walls had gone back up. I shook my head in sadness, but turned to the door and walked out to the main room with Cy behind me.
"Well, how'd it go?" Oak inquired seeing our tear streaked faces.
"It went well." I replied vaguely. "But if he wants you to know, he can tell you, unless he wants me to tell." Oak nodded, and I turned to give Cy a hug again.
