And now for the story...
(A/N: From now on bold is singing)
Chapter 25
"Rrrraaaahhhh". I screamed. I grabbed a chair and threw it against the wall, where it came apart, parts flying around the room. "Where is Pokémon Tower"? I yelled. "Tell me"!
"I really think that you should..." Began the police Officer, but when he saw the look I gave him he shut up and actually stepped back in fear.
"Where is it"? I yelled again.
"Kasper, I'm sorry". Said Officer Jenny. "But we can't tell you".
I glared at them and then ran from the room, kicking the door open as I did. The door swung open and slammed into the wall, coming from its hinges. "Where is Pokémon Tower"? I yelled, as I ran into the lobby. "Tell me, right now".
"Dude, are you all right". Someone asked, walking up to me. "I think you need to calm down".
"I said, where is Pokémon tower". I yelled, grabbing the man by the collar of his top. "Tell me, now".
"Lavender Town". He croaked. "Please, don't hurt me".
I threw him away and ran through the double doors of the Pokémon centre and into the streets of vermillion city. I started to run down the street, in the distance I heard someone shout my name, but I didn't care, I just kept running.
I looked around and saw the sign for route 11 and lavender town. "(You bastards, if you hurt her, I will kill you all)". I was really angry now and could feel myself begin to change. My arms changed position and four of my fingers retreated into my hands, the rest of them gained claws. My feet also gained claws and my clothes began to rip away. My neck became longer and a snout began to appear, my skin changed colour and my body got bigger, I grew a tail and a flame appeared on the end of it. Finally I grew wings and soared into the air.
Meanwhile, back at the Pokémon centre, Torrie, Eddie and Connor were all in Connors room, none the wiser to what was happening. And then, he started to sing.
"Aint no reason things are this way, it's how they always been and they intend to stay. I can't explain why we live this way, we do it every day".
I flew through the air, looking down at route 11 and in the distance I could see a tall tower. "(Pokémon Tower)".
"RRRROOOOAAAARRRR". I roared at the top of my lungs, letting out a sound that caused everyone on route 11 below me to look up. They gazed in awe as a huge Charizard flew by. Assumingly on its own without a trainer, someone clearly guessed that as they called out a huge dragon Pokémon and jumped on its back and commanded it to fly him up there.
"That Charizard is mine". I heard the man say as he was flying towards me. As he got closer I heard him command an attack. "Salamence, Zen Headbutt".
The huge dragon shot towards me with its head pointed at my underside. It was about to hit when I moved out of the way at the last second. "FUCK OFF". I yelled.
"Wwwaaahhh". He yelled in shock as I screamed at him. He wobbled slightly and even the Salamence wobbled through the air in shock.
"I AM NOT A REAL CHARIZARD. I AM A HUMAN, TURNED INTO A CHARIZARED". I yelled at him. "MY NAME IS KASPER O'CONNOR, AND IF YOU DON'T FUCK OFF THE CONSEQUENCES WILL NOT BE MY FAULT".
"Ok". He yelled back and he flew off. "(Well that was easy)"
"Preachers on the podium speakin' to saints. Paupers on the sidewalk beggin' for change, Old ladies laughing from the fire escape, cursing my name".
The tower was getting closer now. "Team Rocket you bastards. You are gunna pay if you hurt her". I yelled to the skies. "You hear me. I will rip you all apart. And you will regret the day you ever crossed me".
My yelling caused more people to look up but clearly they had heard what had happened to the boy as they all backed away to the opposite side of the route. "(I will not let my mother be taken. Especially not the same way my father was taken)".
"I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same,A window and a pigeon with a broken wing,You can spend your whole life workin' for something,Just to have it taken away."
I was getting closer to the tower now, when I suddenly heard wheels screeching. I looked to the road below and there was a large van speeding down the road, on its roof, A large red 'R'.
I was going to let them lead me to the tower but I couldn't, for a young boy had fallen in the road and was struggling to get up, but the van didn't slow down. I swooped down, falling towards the van, tucking my wings in to gain speed. Then just as I was about to hit the ground I spread my wings and soared back into the air, grabbing the van and stabbing my claws into the roof.
I heard screams of terror from inside the van as I hauled it up into the air. I flew as fast as I could and then swung my arms forward at the top of my strength and let go. The screams were even worse now as the van fell towards the ground, spinning as it did. It landed right on the edge of the road and flipped, rolling away from the road into some long grass. I could see the people try to get out, well two of them anyway, I could hear the others still trapped inside, screaming for help, but none came.
I flew towards the van and the two who had gotten out fled towards Lavender Town. I flew above the van and let out a torrent of flames, even more powerful than flamethrower and it hit the vans fuel tank, this resulted in the van exploding in a cloud of black smoke and orange flames. I then headed after the two men running and as I did the car exploded again, and a piston shot out of the engine with a sound like a gunshot and fired through the air towards the two team rocket members, going right through one man's shoulder and tearing it away. He fell to the ground and I landed over him. "Hello". I said.
"People walk around pushing back their debts,Wearing pay checks like necklaces and bracelets,Talking 'bout nothing, not thinking 'bout death,Every little heartbeat, every little breath".
I then opened my mouth and the last thing the man ever saw were the flames that came out of it. They struck him right in the face and his whole body set on fire. I heard the man scream in agony as he was burned alive and it was like candy to my ears. The smell of his flesh burning away was like a barbeque, and I watched in delight as the skin burned away from his head. He let out one last scream before he fell still. "See you in hell". I said.
I looked up and saw that the other man had not gone very far and that his left side was spattered with blood from his friend which joined the blood of himself which was pouring down his face from a large gash in his check. I flew up and headed straight towards him, extending my claws to their fullest. I roared at the top of my lungs and the man turned, the terror etched on his face was one of the greatest gifts I had ever received and I saved the image for another time. I flew as fast as I could towards him and he ran faster, looking back every few seconds.
"People walk a tight rope on a razors edge, Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons.It could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen, Or a thought or a word or a sentence".
He looked back one more time to see me right on top of him and I stabbed my claws through his shoulders, seeing them come out the other side.
"AAARRRGGGHHH". The man screamed in agony, blood pouring from the wounds. I flew into the air and he screamed even more.
"Tell me. Why"? I said into his ear. "Tell me and I may put you out of your misery".
"The-The b-boss want-wanted to t-teach you a less-son". He stuttered and whimpered. "P-please, st-stop the p-pain".
"Alright then". I said. I pulled one hand out so that he was being held up by one hand and the gripped his shoulder, I then pulled out the other and gripped the top of his head. He screamed even louder and I let go of his shoulder so I was only holding his head. He screamed in agony as his neck fought a losing battle with gravity. I reached my spare hand round and placed my claws on his throat. "Good bye". I said and I stabbed my claws through his flesh, blood spraying out and getting blown into my face. I carried on clawing until the skin snapped and his body fell to the earth. I now only had his head, the look of pure agony and terror still etched on his face.
"There ain't no reason things are this way.It's how they always been and they intend to stay, I don't know why I say the things I say, but I say them anyway.But love will come set me free, Love will come set me free, I do believe, Love will come set me free, I know it will, Love will come set me free, yes".
I sped up my flight, this time heading straight for Lavender Town, the head still in my hands. The tower was getting closer and as I reached the outskirts of the town I noticed no one was about and that all the entrances and exits had been blocked off. I flew down to the base of Pokémon tower and as I landed I suddenly morphed back. "(Fine then, I'll deal with them like this)".
I could hear people whispering and knew that they were waiting for me. So I decided not to waste any time. I stepped through the doors and immediately saw a bunch of team rocket members. I smiled and brought the head from behind my back and threw it over to them. They all saw the head and looked away in disgust, a few of them threw up and one of them even fainted.
"That's disgusting". Said one of them, stepping forward with a pokeball in his hands. I put my hand to my hip and grabbed a pokeball as well.
"Oh hello Conan". I said. "Long time no beat the crap out of you".
He gave me mean look but it just made me laugh. "Go Gengar". He yelled. He threw the pokeball and a purple round creature appeared in front of me. It was my turn to smile now.
"Is this your last Pokémon"? I taunted. "It must be seeing as the rest of them abandoned you". I threw my pokeball and out came Brutus. "Brutus take out that Gengar. However you want". I then ran over to Conan and punched him in the face. He went down before he could register but then the other team rocket grunts threw pokeballs releasing a bunch of Pokémon.
I grabbed another pokeball and threw it and out cam Tooth. "Shit". I said, and all of the rockets and their Pokémon started laughing. But then tooth let out an almighty roar and all the opponents fled back into their pokeballs. "Sweet". Suddenly Tooth began to glow. He got way, way bigger and turned snake like, when he stopped glowing he was a red Gyarados.
"Fuck". Said a grunt as Gyarados roared again. Instead of fighting they all ran off. Turned back to Conan but he was gone and his Gengar lay defeated at Brutus's feet.
"Bastard". I said. "Leaving his Pokémon to save his own skin. Brutus, take Gengar to the Pokémon centre".
"But what if you need me"? He protested.
"I said go". I yelled and hi reluctantly picked up Gengar and left. "Tooth, return". I said, pressing the button and recalling him. I clipped the pokeball to my belt and headed up the stairs.
Prison walls still standing tall,Some things never change at all. Keep on buildin' prisons, gonna fill them all, Keep on buildin' bombs, gonna drop them all.
As I headed up the stairs I could hear screams, but, they sounded familiar, like I had heard them before, then suddenly there a came a terrible wailing sound from my belt and Shadow came out of his pokeball, clutching is head and screaming, and now I was screaming too, as my head began to pound and was filled with tortured screams.
"What's, going, on". I managed to whimper and Shadow managed to whimper back.
"This, place, its filled with, tortured souls, tortured, by me". He collapsed to the floor, holding his head and flailing all over the place. I collapsed to my knees next to him as he screamed in pain.
"SHADOW". I yelled at the top of my lungs. I reached for two of my pokeballs and released Twister and Moth. They both appeared and fell to the ground clutching their heads. . "Get him out of here". I groaned and I recalled him to his pokeball. Twister picked up the pokeball with is talons and they both flew down the stairs. "Brutus is at the Pokémon centre all ready". I yelled after them.
The further away they got the less my head hurt and the less tortured screaming I felt. "Now I can get on with this".
Workin' your fingers bare to the bone, Breakin' ya back, make ya sell your soul, Like a lung thats filled with coal, suffocating slow.
I got to the next floor and found Team Rocket members, all lying on the ground, passed out, their hands clutching at their heads. "(So it affected everyone)".
"That is correct". Said a mysterious voice. "But you somehow managed to get over it".
I turned on the spot, looking for the source of the voice but I could see nothing. "Where are you"? I said. "Show yourself".
As I finished a group of about seven Gastly appeared, along with three Haunter and one Gengar. The Gengar opened his mouth and spoke. "You are strong young one". Said the Gengar which I now realised was a girl. "And you are kind to Pokémon. You sent your Pokémon away at risk of your own life to save other Pokémon. May I ask why"?
"Because". I replied. "I don't want any Pokémon to be hurt because of me. Pokémon only do what they are told to do, because they think humans are their masters, but the truth is, without Pokémon, we would be nothing".
"The wind blows wild and I may move, The politicians lie and I am not fooled. You don't need no reason or a three piece suit to argue the truth".
"You are strange human". Said the Gengar. "May I ask your name"?
"My name is Kasper O'Connor".
At the mention of my name the Gastly and Haunter all turned to the Gengar who smiled. "Oh really"? She said. "Your mother is on the next floor". This second part she spoke differently.
"Thank you". I said. And with that I ran across the room and up the stairs.
"Good luck Kasper O'Connor".
"The air on my skin and the world under my toes, Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes, Chaos and commotion wherever I go, love I try to follow".
I reached the top of the stairs and found I was on the last floor. At the end of the room was an altar. On the altar were Viper and Caine and a young boy who only looked about 12. The boy was wearing a Black shirt and a green jacket, his shoes were green and black and so were his gloves. At first I thought he was a hostage but then I saw the huge 'R' on his shirt.
"Why is there a twelve year old with you"?
"I'm thirteen jack ass". He said. "And the name is Shaki. Did I not mention that"?
"Your voice sounds fam... You're the guy from the rock". I gasped. "I thought you were just really short".
At my words Viper and Caine chuckled. I took a step forward and Caine spoke. "Ah, ah, ah". She said, and they all stepped aside to reveal the man from my dream, in his hand was an apache, the barrel of the gun aimed at the head of my mother who was on her knees in front of him, her head down and tears pouring down her face.
"Make on move". Said the man. "And I'll shoot. Now hand over the Pokémon you have on you. Now".
I went to grab them when my mother spoke. "Don't do it son. Just run".
"Never". I said.
"You have till the count of three to hand them over". The man said. "One".
"Don't do it son".
"Two".
"Mom". I said. "I have too".
"Three".
"No wait". I yelled. "You can have them".
"Too late". He said and he pulled the trigger. The gun clicked and the hammer snapped forward, striking the percussion cap at the rear of the bullet casing, this set off a small explosion which propelled the bullet at twenty five feet per second out of its casing and into the grooved barrel which caused it to spin and fly straighter. Finally it shot out of the barrel and into my mother's forehead. Shooting into her skull and flattening on impact making it wider. It came out the back of her head, sucking out all mater as it did so.
This all took less than a second but to me it felt like eternity, watching my mother murdered before my very eyes, knowing that I could have stopped it if I had so wished, I need only have given over my pokeballs.
"NNNNOOOOOO". I yelled. "RRRRRAAAAAHHHHHH". I ran at the man, barging past Viper and Caine, throwing them to the side and into Shaki who was knocked over.
"Love will come set me free. Love will come set me free, I do believe. Love will come set me free, I know it will. Love will come set me free, yes".
I ran at the man, seeing red, running as fast as I could. I punched him in the gut and then in the face and he fell to the ground. I then grabbed him by the collar and held him up to the light.
"No".
"Yes".
"There ain't no reason things are this way, It's how they always been and they intend to stay, I can't explain why we live this way, we do it every day".
"Wow Connor". Said Torrie. "You're a really good singer".
"Thank you". He replied.
I dropped the man and he grabbed the gun and aimed it at my head.
I just stood there staring at him.
He pulled the trigger and the bullet left the barrel, soaring through the small gap in less than a second and penetrating right between my eyes. My limp body fell to the ground, lifeless.
"What happened"? Said Caine.
"He realised". Said the man.
"Realised what". Said Viper.
"I am his father".

Ohhhhhhhh. Now that is a cliff hanger. I would like to thank all the people who read this story. Thank you so much. You don't know how much it means to me. I am so sorry to tell you but there won't be any more chapters for quite a while.

So I'm going to end this for now and write another story, then, at some point I will up load a chapter stating that the sequel will be out in how ever long and the you can watch out for it. And don't worry. I will definitely finish the story. I promise.
Oh and by the way, I'm writing a new story set in my own region and it will have Pokémon that I have come up with as well as actual Pokémon. So author alert me and check it out once I have uploaded the first chapter. Okiday.
