Capsule 4: In Times of Fever
Eterna Forest
Persian frowned as she scanned the trees for her worthless son. "Where are you, you little disgrace of a Pokémon?" she yelled. "Your meal's getting cold!"
Irritated, she dropped the bag of rotten dog food that she had found from inside a trash can. Where is that hopeless boy?she thought.Don't tell me I'm going to have to claw his tail again... Her thoughts stopped as a familiar smell crossed her nose. The smell of failure.
"Hi, Mom!" called out the voice of the Meowth, who slid out of hiding.
Persian groaned, but otherwise ignored his greeting. "Where were you?" She motioned towards the bag. "I went to great lengths to find this so that you don't starve to death, and I don't appreciate being left waiting. Not that I would have to wait if you were any good at getting your own food like a real predator..."
The Meowth flinched at her words. "S-Sorry, Mom. I was trying to find that jerk, Ratattata, but I got... distracted," he admitted.
Persian snorted. He's still obsessed with that legendsdamned Rattata...She glared at the Meowth. "Distracted by what?"
"Well, I found a way to become strong and finally make you proud of me!"
Persian almost laughed. "I doubt that."
The Meowth's ears drooped in response. Despite that, he continued speaking, much to her chagrin. "Well, I found these!" He reached behind his back and pulled out a bottle. It was filled with colorful objects that Persian couldn't identify straight away.
She raised an eyebrow. "...Hm?"
"I was walking along, looking for... rtattatta," he stopped to spit on the ground, "and then I saw a Buneary eating something from this bottle, which made her grow massive muscles! If I had muscles like that, then even you might love me again!"
"...You're going to become stronger by eating pills!?" Persian yelled, making the stupid boy flinch. Afterwards, she sighed heavily. "...Here I thought I couldn't be any more disappointed in you, but clearly not."
Tears appeared in the corners of the pussy's eyes. "B-But... they'll make me strong!"
Persian batted the pill bottle out of the Meowth's paws. It rolled a long distance away. "Pills are the easy way out! You will neverbuild real strength that way!" She snorted. "Oh, who am I kidding... Even if you trained for your entire life, you would never grow strong. Oh, how I wish they'd eaten your egg, instead..." Persian said, trailing off.
The Meowth sniffled. "W-What do you mean 'my egg instead'?"
Persian sighed. "The day I laid your rotten egg was the same day I came across some humans eating a picnic. I really wish I'd swapped your egg with their scrambled eggs..."
He burst into tears. "Wahhh! You're the worst, Mom!"
Persian smirked. "Heh. I do try my best..."
Suddenly, she smelt it. Someone was watching them from the bushes. Persian ushered the Meowth behind her and stared at the intruder's hiding spot. "Whoever you are, show yourself."
Without pause, an overweight human in white clothing burst out of the shrubbery. "[WAHOO! I'M DE BEST!]"
Persian huffed. Out of all the trainers she'd ever had the pleasure of chasing away, this one was certainly the ugliest. Persian took on a battle stance, ready to face whatever Pokémon he brought out.
Surprisingly, and somewhat amusingly, the human also took on a battle stance.
Is he insane?Persian thought, snorting. Well, whatever. If he wants to be my next meal instead, then I won't stop him.
Persian opened her mouth. "Water Pulse!" A ball of water formed in front of her mouth before being forcefully ejected towards the ugly man.
Without warning, the man brought out some white fabric and swung it, hitting Persian's Water Pulse and knocking it back towards her. "[LET'S-A GO]!"
Not expecting the counterattack, Persian barely managed to jump out of the way in time.
The Meowth, however, was not so lucky, as the orb of water struck him, instead. The attack knocked him far away and into a tree, which he slowly slid down. "Ohh, why does this always happen to me...?" he moaned.
What the Ruined World!?Persian thought to herself. Did that human just... reflect my attack?
The human suddenly crouched down before leaping high into the air. If he were a Pokémon, Persian would have suspected that he had used the move Bounce... but this thing wasn't a Pokémon.
He stayed suspended in midair. Soon, though, he came down directly towards Persian at a high speed.
She rolled to the side, barely missing the human's fist, which struck the ground with enough force to cause a small tremor.
Wasting no time, Persian charged a yellow ball of energy within her mouth. "Power Gem!" The yellow light shot out of her mouth and instantly struck him, launching him into the same bushes he'd come from.
Persian smirked. Stupid human,she thought.It's rare that my prey survives a shot at that range, even with fancy moves like that.She began walking towards the bush. I simply can't wait to see the messy results...
Suddenly, as she drew close to the bush, the human stood up and dusted himself off, looking no worse for wear. "[OH YEAH!]"
Persian took a step back as her eyes widened. W-What!? Just whatisthis thing!?
After staring at the human- no… the creature- for a small while, she growled and lunged forwards. Once she got close enough, a ghostly energy enveloped her paw. "Shadow Claw!" She swiped at him, hitting only empty air as the creature jumped over her head.
"[YAHOO!]" it yelled as it stamped onto Persian's head, knocking her down into the foliage.
Persian's head was throbbing, but she quickly picked herself up from the ground. "Dig!" She started to rapidly dig below the earth with her paws, and soon found herself deep underground.
Once she was deep enough, she closed her eyes and concentrated. Soon afterwards, she could sense multiple vibrations coming from above the ground, all of them in one location. Heh, the idiot isn't even trying to dodge. Perfect.
Persian wasted no time in digging underneath the creature. Once in position, she quickly dug straight up, hoping to burst out of the ground and tackle it.
As she broke through to the surface, Persian found herself being sucked into a tornado-like vortex, caused by the thing rapidly spinning around with its arms stretched outwards. Once inside its attack, Persian felt herself getting punched multiple times in various different areas.
Eventually, it stopped spinning and crouched down into a ball. Afterwards, it stretched its arms outwards forcefully, hitting Persian with enough force to make her shriek as she was knocked a long distance away.
Persian laid on the ground, nursing her aching ribs as best she could. After a short while, she attempted to climb back into a battle stance, wincing as a stab of pain shot up her hind leg. Human or not, I'm not letting this legendsdamned creature beat me…
Looking her in the eye, the ugly, fat creature tauntingly patted its shoulder with its balled up fist, infuriating Persian into running after it. Ignoring the pain in her hind leg, a ghostly energy enveloped her paw. "Shadow Claw!" She swiped at it, aiming for its throat.
The thing sidestepped under her claws before jumping high into the air, connecting its fist with her chin as it did so, launching her skywards and causing her to scream. Afterwards, she crashed painfully into the ground yet again.
Panting heavily, Persian tried to move, though she found it difficult. Her entire body was aching, and she felt sharp stabs of pain as several bones moved in ways they were not meant to.
With a groan, she attempted to pick herself up and open her mouth. "Wat-… Water Pu-… ugh." She couldn't finish her attack, as she collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Is… is this how it ends?she thought. Getting killed by a filthy…human thing? Once again, she tried to stand, ignoring the burning in her muscles. No! I…refuse!
Suddenly, Persian's worthless daughter ran into view, holding the- No, wait… her worthless girly son,ran into view, holding the bottle of pills under one of his arms. "It's alright, Mom! I'll save ya!" he yelled, opening the bottle and taking out a yellow pill. "I'll prove that I'm better than any Rattotatato!" He threw the pill into his mouth and started chewing.
Persian huffed and turned back to face the creature, wanting no part in the Meowth's idiocy. "Water Pulse!" A ball of water appeared in front of her mouth before being shot towards her enemy.
Smirking, it simply side-stepped out of the way, and again as she launched another one.
Persian growled. "Power Gem!" A ball of light steadily formed within her mouth before eventually being launched outwards.
While firing the energy, she frantically waved her head around, spraying the energy out over a wide area. Let's see you try to dodge this!she thought, smirking.
Instead of dodging, it summoned a red bubble out of nowhere and hid inside it, protecting itself against her attack. However, it shrank as her attack struck it, giving the thing less cover.
Noticing this, Persian once again yelled, "Power Gem!"
Another bright ball of light formed inside her mouth, and was aimed towards the creature.
Before it could be fired, however, a large contraption fell from the sky towards her. Before she could escape, it landed with a loud crash, trapping her within.
She'd been caught inside a cage.
"What in the nine halls of Arceus!?" Persian exclaimed, scanning the cage for an escape route.
Before she could get any answers, three figures jumped out of the bushes and posed. Two of them, a female, red-haired human and a male, purple-haired human, wore white clothes with a red R on the front. The third figure was… the Meowth?
Persian scowled. Why is my useless son hanging around these humans!? And why is he standing on his hind legs!? Oh, that is it. When we get back to the burrow, I'm going to force feed him so many Tamato berries that he'll never taste anything but pain again.
"[Prepare for trouble!]" the female human started, as some odd music started playing.
"[Make it double!]" the purple-haired male continued.
"[To protect to world from devastation...]"
"[To unite all peoples within our nation...]"
"[To denounce the evils of truth and love~!]"
The male produced a rose, as well as some glittery sparkles. "[To extend our reach to the stars above...]"
The female slid across the ground while striking a pose. "[Jessie!]"
The male did the same in the opposite direction. "[James!]"
"[Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!]"
"[Surrender now, or prepare to fight!]"
The worthless Meowth jumped in front of them, landing on his two feet. "[Meeeeeeowth, dat's right!]"
…Did he just speak English?English!? Persian thought, staring at the Meowth in disbelief. Oh, great. Not only is my son worthless, but now he thinks he's a human, too.She sighed.I knew I should have never mated with that Bidoof… He'd been a tasty meal afterwards, granted, but still...
"[Looks like da plan woiked!]" the Meowth said, doing a happy dance in front of the cage. Glancing towards the two humans, he smirked. "[Good job, you guys dat came outta nowhere!]"
Seeing his display, Persian growled. "What is the meaning of this, you pitiful waste of life!?"
"[This'll teach ya for makin' da baws like ya more dan me, Poisian!]" he said, his accent being just as ridiculous as he was. "[Now da only one he'll ever wanna rub his delicious honey on is me!]"
Persian blinked. "…So you're insane as well as hopeless. Fabulous…"
He frowned. "[Ah, belt up, ya twoip!]"
Persian prepared some less than kind words to shout at the Meowth in response. Before she could, however, a white fabric was swiped around her, causing her to somehow turn on the spot. Immediately afterwards, something was forced into her mouth by the human-like creature, who'd managed to sneak up behind her, despite the cage.
"[HOOHOO! NOW IT'S-A YOUR TURN!]" it yelled, crossing its arms and smirking.
She coughed and tried to spit out whatever it'd slipped into her mouth. "What the Giratina did you… do to… me…? Ugh…" She collapsed to the ground, her mind rapidly going foggy.
Although it had started out tasting bitter, a certain sweetness was filling her mouth. It tasted like that warm, flat, pink disc that she'd once stolen from a human's picnic.
She tried to think of something rude to say to the creature, but she couldn't. Her mind was too busy shining like rainbows. "C-Curse… you, you… stupid… nya- I… nya- nyan nyan nyan NYAN NYAN NYAN…!"
