Deoxys Hunter Squad

A/N: It's here. We finally get to see inside Disu's mind! So…is he an alien? Deoxys? Mentally challenged? In love with Renee? Trying to kill Barry? Deaf? Abducted by Deoxys? A giant monkey who started a clothing line called the Banana Republic? We're on lucky chapter number seven! But, I was reading over the reviews, and I have to say something first because SOMEBODY =I'm not pointing fingers…Icey-chan…= got confused over the setting of the story in chapter one. So here ya go:

This story takes place in the Sinnoh Region before Deoxys was discovered. Because, believe it or not, this place actually existed a few years ago; it wasn't magically formed when Pokemon decided on it. Well, it did, but we're pretending Pokemon exist, so obviously it didn't. My goal was to write a Sci Fi story about how Deoxys was discovered and throw in my two favorite characters.

Lucas- Awww!

Barry- We love you too, Furyfur!

Yep! Team Galactic members Saturn and Mars are in this story!

Everyone- =sad=

Anyway, in the first chapter, the first scene took place at the lab Renee's mother worked at in Hoenn, but after the whole explosion thingy there to introduce what happened to Renee's mother, we get to meet Renee back in the Sinnoh Region. Is anyone having trouble keeping up? Icey-chan? Anyone? ICEY-CHAN? Anyway, let's start chapter number seven by learning where the announcer's sandwich is!

OM NOM NOM NOM NOM…

Okay, I think everyone expected that.

~Deoxys Hunter Squad~

Disu sat up just slightly, just enough to get a good look over Renee's sleeping body so he could watch Barry try to sleep. His eyes were still red and tired, but he didn't dare break his watch. He wished that he still had his glasses, but he had deserted them back in the real world. Now everything he saw was just barely fuzzy. So it's true what they say: wearing glasses when you don't need them does make your eyesight worse.

He had worn glasses for a whole day when he was watching the Jubilife Contest, now he regretted doing so, for his eyes had become addicted to the aid for near-sighted people. He had become sick to his stomach knowing that Renee had been looking for him, but he couldn't tell her where he was or what he was doing. And how odd it was being lifted up into the air and away by what Barry seemed totally convinced was not a figure of imagination. Disu smiled to himself, feeling the overpowering emotion of hate wash over him.

How dare Barry think he were mentally challenged, or even worse, an alien? It's fear of the unknown, Disu had told himself. Barry doesn't know who you are, so he fears you. But Disu knew for a fact that he was nowhere near mentally challenged, let alone an alien. In fact, he was mentally gifted; his dream was to become a scientist and he knew far more than any other person or being of any sort. A few examples:

"There's no life on Mars, how stupid is that? There's not enough for any living thing besides germs on that planet. So we turn our attention to Pluto: There could definitely be life there. Most people would think I were insane when he explained them this, but everything checked out in order to live there: Water? Ice gave water, even if only a little, animals like camels could survive on very little water. Warmth? Animals like penguins could survive in extremely cold weather. Oxygen? Plants don't need oxygen and they create it for animals and humans. So, problems solved. Unlikely yet possible."

"The planets don't have one sun and those idiotic simple circles for rotation around anything. If that were true, then does the sun just stay in place? When it holds all that fiery energy? I think not. Hold your laughter until I finish, please: All the planets in this universe and any other are controlled by a master being-not a real being, just a force of nature- who decided what a planet will have in it, such as water or plants or such, and the reason why Earth is so perfect is because it wouldn't be any use to put water in one planet and plants in another planet, so everything was put in one planet that was the perfect distance away from the sun, and this planet was called "Earth," which means "paradise" in the language spoken outside our solar system. This being that controls the planets is commonly referred to by uneducated people as "mother nature," except it is much more complicated than that."

"Earth is round, just like all the other planets are round. It seems like a simple concept to grasp: Gravity pushes down on the Earth and the Earth rotates, making it round. Also, each planet has different gravity and different rotation cycle. How does this make sense? Gravity and rotation makes planets round, each planet has a different gravity and rotation, yet all the planets are round. The planets are round because the Big Bang Theory is obviously wrong! Listen: I'm a genius, but I'm not a god, so I don't know for sure how the planets were formed, but the Big Band Theory is so off it makes me wonder why scientists even exist. That's all I have to say on the matter."

As you can see, Disu is very interested in the planets. Not planets exactly: The universe and how everything in it works. He liked to wonder, if another human was in Nature's place and ruled the universe, could they do it? He'd like to find out if he could, but it was much more entertaining to think about other people. Barry, for example, couldn't handle it for five minutes without cracking under the pressure and being driven away from the throne by the people of the world. Lucas could last a month or two, and maybe people would accept him more, but he couldn't do it even if people wanted him to. Renee, however, would be frightened and try to escape, but Disu would help her. He seemed confident she was some sort of princess. Besides, she could pull off a politician if she wanted to. She's a likeable person, though afraid, but Disu seemed confident she could do it.

What would this world be like if Renee were running the universe? She also seemed like the type to treat only one planet with the gift of life, but give the other planets something special about them as well. Renee is creative for a human, Disu could feel it, but definitely not as creative as Nature. There'd be a lot more endangered and extinct species because Renee wouldn't be able to keep up with their needs. Renee also seems like the type to put her universe before herself, like a good queen should. The complication is, humans would most likely no longer be the dominate species of planet Earth. He'd ask Renee that later: If you were queen of the universe, what animal would be the dominate species? He knew what her response would be, however: She'd simply ask him where that came from, give a nervous laugh and a modest answer, something like "The humans because the universe already did such a great job with them." But Disu knew full well that if it were Renee's job to come up with the animals on the planet, they'd all be animals, no humans. A world without humans is like a world without knowledge.

Disu grinned. He was bored now, and he figured that Barry must be bored too. So, he forced himself to see what Barry was seeing. He was seeing moments from his childhood, all of which involved Renee. Oh, how sweet. He was mad at Renee and longing a better time with her. Disu searched Barry's mind for one he hasn't thought of yet. Disu recoiled where he was sitting, almost hurt by the vision.

He saw himself standing in Barry's memory, Renee and Barry on a playground in kindergarten, playing together. It was so sick it hurt. Is this what friendship is like? And what made Renee like Barry so much? And why was the vision black-and-white when he saw it, all except for Renee, who was in bright, vibrant color? Surely this meant something. Was the memory broken? Or was it a glitch? Why was Barry's memory so tightly wrapped around Renee?

"The Spinning Game!" little Renee said happily. She appeared to be happy in the vision; nothing like Disu had ever seen her. Maybe it was because she was small. Or maybe it was because she was alone in her little world with black-and-white Barry.

"Can't argue, but just for the record, I'm stronger…" Disu couldn't help but spit in the sand with disgust. It was okay, no one else could see him, anyway.

Disu had no clue what the Spinning Game was, but the colored Renee and the colorless Barry grabbed hands together- a thick gray mixed with a pale skin tone- and they started to spin around in circles. Disu felt dizzier as they picked up speed, when out of absolutely nowhere, Barry shoved his foot in front of hers and they both collapsed. Needless to say, this caught Disu off-guard. Kind of like an assassin running up to you and stabbing you in the gut catches you off-guard.

Disu's last reason seemed to leave him. He dashed up to the black-and-white Barry and reached down to try to grasp his collar.

"You idiot! Do you have any idea what this girl's gonna grow up to be? Bastard!"

Disu froze, watching the young boy laugh as if he weren't even there. He slowly released his collar, realizing he couldn't touch anything in a memory, nor could anyone see him. He turned back toward Renee, who was sitting with her weight on her arm, laughing as the wind blew her yellow dress over her ankles. Disu bit his lip. He'd had enough of this memory.

Blinking his tired eyes, Disu brought himself back to reality. He grinned to himself, the blonde boy's laughing face still haunting his memory.

Yes, that was perfect. Let's use that one, shall we?

Disu raised his hand in the air in a loose fist. The color changed from pale skin to blood red, and he twisted his hand around, experimenting with the memory. He didn't mind the work. He needed a new excuse to mess with him, anyway.

Barry was now seeing what Disu had saw, except from the point of view of himself. Except he was seeing the "newer" version, in which Disu included a few surprises hoping to get Barry to turn his back on his friends. The first one had been Lucas, this one Renee. Disu was still lost when it came to whether he should make one of himself or not. Barry already suspected him, why should he point fingers at himself, if anyone? Then again, wouldn't it be more suspicious if everyone except he were to be blamed for causing so much trouble? And if he decided to create a false illusion of himself, what memories could he manipulate? He didn't have any memories with Barry. And Renee didn't expect any dreams about Deoxys.

Now that Barry was sound asleep, Disu could lay down and think to himself without having to worry. The one thing that had been on his mind was Renee and the name she gave him. He used to like his real first name, but now that Renee had nicknamed him, he thought it sounded rather stupid. Deokishisu. It sounded long, boring, and, well…alien. But Disu was no alien- No, he had heard enough about that already.

He had noticed a pattern among his friends: All their first names had two syllables. Re-nee, Lu-cas, and Bar-ry. And his nickname was two syllables as well. Di-su. It also occurred to him that he needed a last name. Renee's last name was Harmony, Lucas's was Mallory, and Barry's was Usui. Another pattern: They all have three syllables. Disu didn't have a last name altogether. He had never addressed the problem until now; no one had ever asked him for his first name, let alone his last. And thinking of a last name for himself was hard, especially when he had to limit it to three syllables.

Hard to think up a nickname? Ha! Disu could do better than that; in fact, he could create whole people with a name and personality off the top of his head! Look at Kikuchi Sakura! Look at Barbara Kelly Bells! Not only did they have full personalities, they also had love interests, and, and…Well, both of them had nicknames, just like Disu. So that makes them special, right?

All in all, Disu was a genius and he was positive he could think up a last name for himself. It'd just take a night of thinking. This was the first time he had created a name for someone who he hadn't…well…thought up. He let himself take a break of these weird thoughts, promising himself he'd think of one later. Disu ran his fingers through the grass below him. Normally, this would make a noise, wouldn't it? But Disu couldn't hear anything. That was understandable, since he was deaf.

Disu had cried himself to sleep the night he had met Barry. It was a strange feeling. He was happy to had met Renee, neutral about Lucas, and hated Barry with every fiber of his being. And that was the very first time he had ever cried in his short life. The way he was born…He never thought he'd have to worry about emotion. What was it about Barry that forced through such a strong emotion from Disu's veins? It couldn't just be the fact that he didn't believe he was deaf? It wasn't his fault he's never heard anything in his life. He had to admit, that was pretty depressing…But surely it had something to do with Renee?

The feelings he had for Renee were a glitch. Just like his deafness was. And his hatred for Barry. They and the black-and-white memory. It was all a glitch. Just a glitch. Nothing to worry about. But if it was a glitch…Where did all the glitches start? It all started with accidentally becoming deaf, then a bunch of tiny errors flew from that: The feeling for Renee had come first, and that sparked the hatred for Barry, which must've affected Barry in some way, which caused the black-and-white memory. In that case, how did he become deaf?

He was perfect! Absolutely perfect! He didn't have errors! Humans were created to be perfect, Pokemon were created to be perfect, he was created to be absolutely, positively, flawless! So why had he become deaf? Surely someone was messing with him, someone like Barry!

Never mind, he decided on his last name: Shōgai. It meant "Failure."

And we end the chapter on that note.

Disu- So…I'm not perfect?

Renee- Of course not. But that's a pretty cute last name…

Me- …What?

Renee- Nothing, I'm just saying, it rolls off the tongue.

Me- Shōgai…I guess it does.

Barry- Wait, wait…I'm confused. He "made up" all the stuff we've been through?

Disu- That's not how Disu said it.

Barry- Then what'd you mean?

Disu- Disu doesn't know what you mean…

Barry- WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUUU…

Renee- =ignoring them= Pretty odd way to end the chapter, but I suppose Disu is all-around weird.

Me- Yes. Yes he is. Anyway, legal experts say I must end the chapter with these four things…:

1: I don't agree with any of Disu's theories of the world. I made 'em up. Don't sue me or arrest me.

2: Disu has just explained that he's not an alien and that he is deaf. I won't tell you whether he's telling the truth, but just know that this is his own POV, so even if he were an alien, I think he would be at least able to confide it in himself. So if he were an alien, you'd know by now.

3: The thing about "glitches" is not talking about Disu being a video game nerd. At the same time, it has nothing to with him being a human either. It'll be explained later if you're confused. After all, it is a Sci Fi story…It's supposed to be confusing up until the last chapter, right?

4: I just totally wasted a chapter in my 30-chapter limit…But it was pretty fun to write.

Oh! And a fifth thing!

5: There MAY POSSIBLY UNDER SOME CIRCUMSTANCE be a sequel. I dunno, it depends how many people actually like this story. ~Furyfur
