Pokemon In The Real World: Book 4

Chapter 4: Monara's Contract

Monara

Rex and I arrived at the Team Galactic building and made our way to the contractor. "Monara, Rex. Just the two I wanted to see, I have a contract you might have interest in" the contractor said, giving us a folder. I opened it and saw a picture of some of my siblings, Allen.

"W-What? You can't expect me to kill him, he's my closest friend, my brother" I said, about him. The contractor turned away, "We learned that he's one of Team Rocket's best assassins. If he dies, Team Rocket's income will drop by roughly twenty percent, as well as destroy the assassination wing of Team Rocket for a while". This was a good reason, but I had to choose, my family, or promised world peace. "…yes sir...". "Rex, I also have one for you. Some journalist has been haging around this street a little too much, see what you can do about her". "Yes sir".

We walked out of the room with our folders. "It seems you'll be killing Allen by yourself" he said to me. I nodded, unable to reply. He walked down the hall and towards the elevators, leaving me here. I opened the folder and saw the picture and details on Allen. I said to myself quietly, "Sacrifices must be made… to ensure world peace…".

I was able to set up a room for the new Snivy in my home. I had multiple rooms in my house, more than I really needed. It was a pretty big home for me, and it might help to have a use for them and to have someone to keep me company. Sanjuana seemed to follow me around a lot recently, sitting at my feet, on my shoulders, or sitting next to me. Even though she had her own room, I found her sleeping next to me in the mornings.

"What are you doing today?" she asked cheerfully, bouncing around me while I was walking down a hallway. I turned to her, "Don't you have anywhere to go? Like a family?" I asked. Sanjuana suddenly stopped bouncing, then looked away, "I don't have a family… not any more".

This sudden change in attitude told me something was wrong, "What happened". Sanjuana made a small 'sniffle', then whispered "Something bad, someone in my family hurt me…" before breaking into tears. I bent down to give her a hug, and she rushed over to me and buried her head in my shoulder while hugging me and crying. "Shhh… they can't hurt you anymore" I said in the most reassuring voice I could muster, holding her close.

In the condition she was when I found her, I could tell that she was raped, beaten, and cut. Such a terrible thing to be exposed to in a young age.

Taylor

"SANUANA, WHERE ARE YOU?" Lily called out. Lily, Anubis, Crystal, and I were in the forest, looking for my daughter. "Taylor's it's almost two in the morning, and it's been almost three weeks since Sanjuana's disappearance. Maybe we should accept that she's gone?" Crystal said.

I felt a deep anger, but maybe she was right. She could have been eaten by a wild pokemon, or have been caught by another trainer. Some fucking parent I am, I can't even look after my own children. A few tears dripped down my face, nothing could compare to the guilt, and the anger of myself. I silently nodded, crying quietly.

We walked back to the mansion, and I was filled with the overwhelming feeling of defeat.

Allen

"Dad, where did Sanjuana go?" Blossom asked me, sitting on the couch across from me. I just sat back against the couch, "She's on a long trip, she probably won't be coming back" I replied, feeling a sinking feeling whenever I was reminded of her. "When will she be back?" Blossom asked. I just sighed, then looked at a picture of her that was on a table on the side.

I got up from my seat and walked over to the kitchen area, seeing Leaf sitting at the table. I sat next to her and patted her on the head. She jumped up onto my shoulder and gave me a kiss, leaning her head against mine. "I hope Sanjuana's okay…" Leaf said in a low one, almost crying. I nodded, then put a hand on her cheek, "She's fine" I replied in attempt to humor her.

She smiled lightly, then gave me a kiss on the cheek. She jumped off of my and went over to the stairs and up to her room. I got up and looked out the nearby window, looking at the forest just a few meters from our backyard.

"Sanjuana, where are you?".
