"I'm not saying anything!" Aidan protested, thrashing about in the seviper's tenacious coil.

"I know that you and the zangoose are working together, hm?"

"No, we're not, actually. I wanna ask you why you've been cursing young pokémon! What's wrong with you?"

The seviper's eyes narrowed. "What are you talking about?"

"You know what I'm talking about. The bulbasaur? The one who was struck by the curse? I don't think it's a curse at all. I think it's poison. a SEVIPER'S poison! "

The seviper's eyes lit up in shock. She tilted her head to one side confoundedly. "What bulbasaur?"

"You know exactly what I'm talking about!" Aidan snapped. "Stop acting like you don't!"

"Are these the words of those pesky zangoose?"

Aidan fell silent, fresh out of things to reply with. If he continued to argue, he'd never escape the grip of the Seviper.

"I knew it! You and those zangoose are in affiliation. Tell me all that he told you! NOW!"

Seviper held its mouth agape. Aidan stared down its throat; it almost seemed as if it went on forever, and he didn't want to end up in the pokémon's belly. He unleashed the anger that had been pooling in the pit of his chest for as long as he had been a charmeleon.

A primal roar escaped from Aidan's throat, shocking the seviper and its cronies into inanimateness. It echoed off of the cave walls. The pokémon's throat was sore shortly after, but Aidan felt an awesome, animal-esque power that he'd never properly felt before- only briefly during the last battle with the granbull. He crunched down on the snake's body and it loosened its coil. He growled intimidatingly and slashed at the shiny seviper with draconic claws. As the leader lay on the floor momentarily, Aidan approached her on all fours.

"I'm not saying a word!"


Author Note: Aidan has been uploaded onto the GTS! :D

At least, he was. He is now owned by 'George' (I.D. 09053) who gave me a Level 5 Purrloin called 'Please' in return. Thanks, 'George'!
