Ch. 20.5 Origins

(I'll be working on this story this week. I'll try to make three new chapters for you all.)

{Rui's Point Of View}

-14 years before clone Rui went to Aura-

I stood in front of the test tube containing my clone. The tiny blob is nothing but a million cells rapidly dividing to become my test subject. I often questioned myself on why I even wanted a clone of myself to come into fruition. Was it because I wanted to find out if I could bring in a new age of watchers that look like me? Was it to create a new vessel for me to possess and continue living on as a younger version of myself? I had no idea. He floated in a batch of specialized water and plasma to fuel the hungry cells. I looked around at the humans surrounding me and couldn't suppress a disgusted snort. I still remember my younger days when it was me and my kind, the watchers.

-200,000 years ago-

The watchers were a race of super beings that watched over their creations, the humans and pokemon, by word of our leader Arceus. He was our immortal elder that lived inside a sealed chamber to create brand new species. The rest of us lived in prosperity with disease, hunger, and thirst being completely non-existent. We lived atop a gigantic mountain that our creations called the World Peak. I still remember those sights... the endless oceans... the bright blue sky... the sun greeting us every morning and the distant stars at night. I often dreamed of going to them and seeing what was there. Unlike the solar system in the future, the planet all life inhabits used to be large enough to make the sun orbit around it instead. As for the Watchers, we were... like hybrids of the creations. Everyone... except me. My brother, Cray, he looked like a perfect a human and Gardevoir. His crimson eyes burned with passion and effort to uphold our culture. His green hair curled over her forehead a bit and spiked up in a Mohawk. His pale white skin reflect both droplets of water and light. His chest and legs were well defined but his stomach and waist sucked in to make a strange hourglass. Even his elbows sucked in with green around his knuckles. He wore a gold hemmed white robe with a white wool shirt and shorts underneath. Our kind didn't wear shoes.

"Rui, how are you today?" Cray asked.

I sat at the edge of our village, looking down at the human and pokemon villages. I hated both of them for their monstrous behavior and lack of respect for the land given to them. Arceus created them to live together but they do nothing except fight. It made me sick to my stomach that they were looked after so carefully. I knew my brother wasn't going to leave me alone so I stood up to look at him.

"I am doing well, brother." I replied.

Staring at him made my hatred fluctuate since he looked so normal to the others. Me, I'm ridiculed actively for looking exactly like a human. My current age is 15 years old and stand at 5 foot 8. My short black hair spiked up but separated into separate thick spikes. My blue eyes flared from my burning hatred. My skin is, in human terms, white but nothing like my brother since he is almost pure white. I wore a black dyed shirt and black dyed shorts made by the humans in an offering. That day was utter humiliation for me since I was thought to be a human Arceus chose to ascend to the heavens. Our culture dictates that we must wear the clothing given to us as an offering. So, I came back home to be further tormented by my own people.

My brother grabbed my left shoulder and smiled, "You do seem to be in a good mood. Has the ritual become more appealing brother?"

I brushed aside his hand angrily, "No! How could you let them separate me and Nyila?"

My brother gave me a stern look, "You are not fit to choose your mate."

I shook my head, throwing out my arms, "So you get to choose for me!? I know the real reason, Nyila never liked me because I'm so human! Even you, my own brother, have suspicions that I'm a human when I'm not!"

Cray opened his mouth to speak but silenced himself sadly confirming my suspicion, "Rui... I chose a human..."

My eyes widened as every hair on my body began to rise, "You what..?"

Cray closed his eyes, taking a deep breath before repeating, "I chose a human."

I turned my back to him, silent at first, before letting out a fit of laughter, "I should have known! What of Jay, Derek and Anthony?" I asked suddenly.

"They have completed their last trial and now protect the door to Paradise. You should have been there, they inherited the three keys of destiny. That hasn't happened in almost 5 thousand years." Cray answered.

"... Do you hate me brother?" I asked, still refusing to look at him.

Cray bit his tongue before looking around conflicted, "Rui, everything I've done for you has been out of love. If you can not impregnate this girl, you'll prove you're a full blooded watcher to our entire clan!"

"Fuck our clan! I don't give a shit about their opinions!" I yelled.

Cray punched me, "That is exactly why they treat you differently!"

I stood up to my brother, punching him back, "I have been disrespected my whole life by you fuck heads!"

Cray shoved me, "I've done nothing but help you by trying to prove that you are indeed a Watcher!"

I glared at my brother, "Oh, I'm a Watcher and I'm proving it today when I declared my freedom from this bullshit. I'm leaving for the ceremony now."

I walked past him, hitting his shoulder aggressively, "What are you going to do!?" Cray yelled.

I yelled over my shoulder, "Whatever the fuck I want!"

Cray ran after me, grabbing my shoulder, "Rui, you... you need to go through with this. Please! Trust me!"

I was flabbergasted, "Trust you!? I trusted you when I was younger and you still failed to help me. I'm going and when I get there, they're going to see I'm truly a Watcher."

I walked off, heading to our village's temple where the ritual is being held. Once I reached it, the large stone doors opened up to reveal a large open room with 12 stone pillars. Arceus was there, making me freeze in my spot.

Arceus looked at me, walking over in his human form, "Hello Rui. I heard you had quite a debate with your brother over this ceremony."

"..." I looked down, "Lord Arceus... I am constantly tormented by everyone over the fact that I look human. I'm a Watcher, right?"

Arceus inspected me, "Yes. You are a Watcher. A being forged to be the final rebirth of a human and pokemon combined. That is what a Watcher is..." he turned to the other watchers in the room, "Something you all seemed to have forgotten!"

The Watchers in the room bowed a bit, "We are sorry lord Arceus."

The human woman in the room looked confused, "Am I still chosen?" she asked innocently.

Arceus turned to me, "Due to Cray's... choice. You are still required to become an adult and receive your soul weapon."

I shook my head, "I'm sorry lord Arceus but I do not wish to go through with the ceremony. I would rather stay as a child and grow my own power instead."

The stone doors closed with a loud slam, "You can't back out now. Your request has been accepted and now you must mate with the female chosen for you."

I shook my head furiously, "No! I will not mate with that pathetic human girl! She is beneath me! I will mate with my own kind or you'll all- Ack!" I felt the strength leave my body.

As I fell back, I glanced to see Cray behind me, "Good work Cray." Arceus smiled.

I stared at my brother in shock, "You would really..?" he stepped on my mouth.

Cray bowed, "I apologize for my brother's rudeness. He is still a child but deserves this opportunity to become an adult and earn his powers. I will ease his mind by using my own powers to control him."

Arceus pat Cray's shoulder, "You are a great Watcher Cray. Today, you have proven your loyalty and deserve a reward for such. From now on, you're a Guardian."

Cray smiled, "Thank you Arceus. I'm honored to receive such a privilege for apprehending my own brother. Let us finish the ceremony before celebrating such a prestigious event. Hold the girl down please."

Cray took his foot off me and had me stand up, "You would really do this to your own brother?" I asked, hate dripping off my voice.

Cray smirked at me for a moment, before looking neutral, "Look at her. She's so willing. You are a god given gift to her. No human has ever received such an honor. Try to be nice and make her remember this day for years to come."

"I can't believe you can smirk like an arrogant dick since you're forcing your own flesh and blood to rape some human."

Arceus gained my attention, "She is very willing. Don't worry. You'll be the bridge, the one we'll remember when history tells about the 'first human-watcher relationship' hah ha." the other watchers laughed with Arceus.

Cray spoke up, "Do not laugh at him. Let us get this over with."

They forced me to mate with the girl as I screamed, "You'll pay for defiling me like this! I swear it! I'll kill you! All of you! I won't rest until I rip out your spines and beat you with them! I destroy our entire clan, I'll-" Cray shoved a large wad of cloth into my mouth.

"Enough, enjoy the rest of the ceremony little brother." Cray smiled.

They watched as the ceremony commenced and my sanity slowly began to drain as my anger began to grow.

(That's the end of .5 chapter which'll add more information on what happened. This is the beginning of the universe and how everything changed. As mentioned, the universe used to have 1 planet with the sun orbiting it instead. So, obviously something big must have happened to separate that one planet in 11. .5 chapters will be uploaded the day after a new chapter is out but will be half a chapter long. That's about 1300-1700 words.)
