Chapter 25- Answered questions
(Grant)
I felt frozen. Still; like ice and eyes wide. "What?!" I shouted
"I'm your mother," she said.
So many questions rushed through my head like; where's dad? or Just a whole lot of 'what?'. One question swished in my head the most though; "Why did you leave me?" I asked with my head to the ground.
"We were getting chased by a herd of the rivaling pikachu clan and I dropped you out of my mouth," she said.
My eye twitched slightly; "So what? You decided to leave your infant son to be killed?" I asked feeling rage.
"Yes… but I went back to you and noticed you were gone! I was scared and I wandered around the woods looking for you! I heard an eevee settlement nearby and there you were! Confused and scared; you looked absolutely helpless,"
"Probably because my own mother fucking abandoned me!" I shouted releasing anger.
"I rushed back and told your father. He was filled with rage and he ran out in search for you," she said.
My eyes were wide. Wait so that means; I put my paws over my mouth. I-I killed my father!
"Ever since then I had a very bitter taste towards…" she looked over at Eve and growled.
"Leave her alone!" I shouted.
"What would you do? Kill your mother?" she asked
"You are not a mother to me! You left me for dead and didn't bother to talk with the eevee to explain the situation. You are not a mother to me!" I said coldly. My 'mother' walked closer to Eve and I saw fear within Eve's eyes. "Back off!" I shouted; "Before I am forced to take action!" I said in a low growl. Her cheeks began shooting off small jolts of electricity. I have to stop her before anything happens to Eve! Without any hesitation I coated my tail in iron and began to swing my tail connecting hard on my birth mother's face sending her flying back. "Back the fuck off!" I shouted.
"Why waste your time with this pathetic creature?"
That triggered me big time! I grabbed her by the throat; "No one treats Eve like that! You hear me? NO ONE! I don't give a fuck who you say you are! You stay the fuck away from Eve and stay the fuck away from me!" I shouted with anger. She fell to the ground and looked at me shocked. "Why the fuck are you so shocked? You call the one I love pathetic, do you expect me to brush that off?"
"How could you do this to your own mother?" she asked trying to play the victim card.
"Don't you even try! You were never my mother! I don't care if you gave birth to me! I am not your son! My adoptive parent did a much better job of taking care of me! She cared for me she was my real mother! You don't have to have the blood of the family for them to be your mother! You are not my mother!" I slowly began walking over to Eve; "Hey, are you okay?" I asked
"Yes Grant," she said still shaken up. I turned towards my mother who was slowly walking over to me with an iron tail charged. She had a grin on her face.
"Here is the difference between you and me. I am fully levelled up whilst you would be about mid way. So best not start something that you can't win," she said with her slow walk.
I charged up my iron tail; "Eve; get back honey," I said. Eve nodded and stepped back a bit.
"What can't she stand up for herself?" she asked.
"No it's just that this isn't her battle!" I said. She began walking slowly towards me;
"So aren't you going to swing?" she asked.
I kept my stare; "You know what they say… Ladies first," I said in a deep menacing voice. She bolted at me and swung her tail. In an instant I blocked her iron tail with my own. I began to swing my tail at her only to have it stopped by her own. I grinned as I began charging a power-up-punch. I unleashed my energy sending her flying towards the nearest tree. She weakly stood up with blood pouring out of her nose. She looked at me with a dead stare and then looked towards Eve. Her body began glowing and she shot off. The world began moving in slow motion. I ran towards Eve and jumped in front of the attack. I went flying back; slamming into a tree. Owch, Giga impact hurts like a mother fucker! I slowly got to my feet and saw mum standing with blood still coming out of her. My body felt weak; there is still a move I can use; I need to concentrate! My mother stared at Eve again and made a dead run toward her. I felt my brain pulse and the world suddenly stopped moving. I was deep in concentration; eyes focused on my mother. I shot a beam of purple from me stopping my mother from advancing any further. Colour came back to my eyes and I slowly began moving her away from Eve with my psychic. I threw my mother into another tree. I stopped my psychic and was greeted with a headache.
Eve looked at me; "Grant? Was that psychic?" she asked.
"Yes it was," I said.
"How long have you been able to do that?" she asked flabbergasted.
"Since the day you started showing symptoms of brain worms," I said.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked
"I was going to make it a surprise," I said. "Is she dead?" I asked.
"No, I don't think so. She's still moving,"
"good," I said. I began walking over to my mother. She looked at me with blood stained fur. "Now unless you want to die I suggest you go away and never return!" I said with anger.
"You wouldn't dare! You don't have the guts!" She said.
"Don't have the guts? Oh if only you had seen my past," I said.
"Why do you sound like that?" she asked
"Sound like what?"
"That weird accent,"
"Long fucking story! Now you stay away from me and Eve and nobody gets more hurt!" I said.
"Just you wait 'till I find your father!" she said with anger
"You will find his skeletal remains somewhere," I said.
"What do you mean?" she asked in a growl.
"Let's just say dad wasn't smart and he kept coming back. Now I don't think you will be finding him alive," I said.
"You killed…" She let out a growl. and bit me hard; so hard that she caused me to bleed.
"Last chance! Leave or die!" I shouted. She gave me a cold stare. She swung an iron tail into my nose and I fell back. I charged my iron tail and made the edge as sharp as I could. "Well it seems that you have chosen that path huh?" I said. I began walking over to her. I stopped; can I really do this? She is my mother. She seems like Jess's parents. I don't think of her as my mother! She isn't my mother, she isn't my mother; "You aren't my mother," I said as I sliced with my eyes closed. I opened my eyes and saw that I was covered in blood. I killed my parents. I killed them and I feel no guilt. Why don't I feel guilt? I know why. They were terrible people!
"Grant are you okay?" asked Eve.
"Well I killed my parents. How is it that two of the worst pokemon produced me?" I asked
"Because you are the bi-product. You were raised in a different environment than the one you were meant to be in; you grew up in a caring and loving home," Eve said kissing me.
It is night now. "Let's continue back to the pokemon center," I said
"Wait you feel nothing after killing your mother?" she asked
"She was never a mother to me! She left me to die!" I said.
"Grant! You're bleeding!" Eve shouted. I felt something thick and wet roll down the side if my head.
"Shit! Is it bad?" I asked
"No it seems like just a scratch," she said.
"Good," I said with a sigh of relief. We finally reached the doors of the pokemon center and walked in. We turned into our room. Joey's eyes connected on me and they went wide.
"Grant! I-is that blood?!" he asked. Jess and Shimmer came running in from the bathroom.
"Grant! What happened?" Jess asked worried.
"We got attacked," I said
"Umbreon?" Jess asked.
"No… It was… my m-mother!" I said
"What?!" everyone asked at the same time.
"I ran into my mother. She abandoned me when I was a pichu. She tried to kill Eve!" I said. "So I…"
Shimmer looked at me in shock; "You killed your mother?" she asked
"Yes but she definitely was NOT my mother. She abandoned me and really was like well… Jess's parents," I said.
Jess's eyes widened; "You had parents like mine?" she asked
"It seems so," I said with a sigh.
"So I guess that explains the blood," Jess said.
"Wait so you killed a pokemon Grant?" Jozzo asked
"Yes I had to! If I didn't then she would have killed Eve!"
"But she was your mother!"
"No! Mary is my mother. She's just the one who gave birth to me!" I said.
(Eve)
I nudged Grant; "I'm tired," I said; "Can we go to sleep please?" I asked drowsily.
Grant looked back at me; "Yes; in fact we should all get some sleep; we still have 28 days of this month left!" he said.
We curled down together and fell asleep. I opened my eyes with a yawn and as usual Grant was already up. I smiled and made my way towards the balcony when something caught my eye. I saw Jozzo laying by himself.
"Joey?" I asked
He opened his eyes with a stretch; "Hey Eve, what's up?" He asked
"Well I was wondering why you didn't sleep with Shimmer. Even before me and Grant confessed our love we slept together; granted it was winter and it was freezing but why didn't you sleep with Shimmer?"
He looked at me and put his head into his paws; "Well if I stand up then I feel like I am going to throw up and I'm nervous,"
"Why are you nervous?" I asked
"Well she's in heat and I don't want to subconsciously make moves on her,"
"Joey, it is fine to lay with her. I mean you didn't advance on her yesterday," I said.
He sighed; "Yes I did," he said
"Wait… What?"
"After you guys left Shimmer's heat became more obvious and being the male I am, I got turned on and Shimmer being on top of me didn't help either. I remember pushing her off me and spreading her legs. I snapped out of the state I was in and backed off. I was scared I didn't know what I was doing and ever since I have been too worried to get too close to her. I just don't want to do it again!" He said.
I put my arm around him; "hey, it's not your fault. This is the first time you are experiencing a heat so don't beat yourself up. I'm sure that Shimmer was taken off guard as well but she loves you too. Who knows maybe when she is out of her heat you can go off into the woods; you know it is nice and isolated and then you two can get rid of your 'cravings' if you catch my drift," I said with a smile.
He blushed; "S-so you and Grant did that?" He asked
"What? Did you expect us to just be blind about this whole thing?" Grant asked leaning on the glass door.
"How are you two so open about this stuff?" Joey asked
"We don't have secrets anymore. Grant and I tell each other everything!" I said with a smile. "After you tell each other about your lives you become more open with one another and the awkwardness just fades away,"
"My head still feels fuzzy and those pills taste like shit. I am not having a good week," Joey said with a sigh.
"Well the head is my fault man; I am really sorry. If I could go back and change the events of that day then I would," Grant said with his head in the dirt.
I bumped him lightly; "hey, he got closer to Shimmer because of that so keep your chin up cotton ball!" I said nuzzling him.
"Why are you two so good at this?" Joey asked
"Well Grand and I have been through alot together! From abandonment, blizzards and pokemon wanting to kill us. It really made us appreciate each other," I said.
"Don't worry Joz, you'll be back on your feet in no time mate!" Grant said with a smile.
"I hope so… I am really craving a battle," Joey said.
(Grant)
The rest of the month went pretty smoothly and Shimmer got out of her heat and Jozzo's concussion has subsided. Eve has a noticeable bump in her stomach and I am filled with joy.
"Come on guys it is time to head over to the next town and obtain the seventh badge!" Jess said with enthusiasm.
"Hell yeah! I want to participate in this one. I need the training, I have been out of action for a while," I said with a smile.
"Okay then get your things because we a are off!" Jess said. I looked back to Eve, she's putting her flower in her fur. "I may need to cut back on the amount of food I'm giving Eve," Jess said
"Why?" I asked
"She seems to have gained some weight,"
"She hasn't gained weight, Eve's pregnant," I said.
Jess nodded her head and then stopped, she looked at me with wide eyes; "She's what?!"
Author's notes: Well... That happened. Grant has killed both of his parents and Shimmer is out of heat and they are on their way to the seventh gym badge. But what challenges will the gang face with Eve's pregnancy and will Grant annihilate the seventh gym? Anyways thank you so much for reading this chapter!
