CHAPTER 24:
Er'lie in da mornin'! Yugo was rising from his sleep as there was now a weird feeling among his team. Tenseness was a common thing along with how his friends, if they are up at that point, have been acting lately. He was really hoping it did not ruin his plan to get into the GT or entirely slump the training… even though that is beginning to go with that direction.
He got out and pulled Reeka out of the bag, then walked to the training ground, and from there they waited. 10 minutes later, Eriktar entered the field with Jesse trailing behind. She looked and sniffled, "Ah good… I thought you'd might've forgot."
Yugo sweated, "Well, uh, we kinda kept coming here and just did a little training while you were… I guess sick?"
"Good… now then… let's train."
Eriktar nodded, but still didn't feel as if she should be. He took the Riolu, who was now unhappy once again having to train with him, and Yugo was left with Jesse. She lifted the pole as she said, "Now… let's see if you've improved…"
Yugo asked, "Now not to sound like your Lucario but… should you be doing this?"
"I'm perfectly capable of… oh."
She put the pole down as her stomach was giving grief. Yugo asked, "Um, should I get…"
Her attitude changed, "Yes, yes, get him!"
Yugo ran quickly to the forest as Jesse began to hack something, then threw up on the side. She quickly sat down before it got worse, knowing it might. Eriktar quickly came back as he saw the mess that Jesse made and scolded, "I told you, you weren't healed yet! C'mon."
Jesse made a low hiss in annoyance, but got up and steadily followed him. Yugo asked, "I'm taking it that no training?"
Eriktar told him, "No, until she's better, no."
"Will you be coming to the event tomorrow at least? I got the seats."
Jesse told him, "Oh I never said anything about *blewgh* missing that. This damn cold will just take a while."
They were led off as Eriktar continued to talk with Jesse. Yugo couldn't believe that the money he had is getting wasted, but hey, it paid off in a week and Reeka will get more training than he could do with her. Anyway, since that happened, Yugo told Reeka, standing where the path was to the other training field, "Well, since they're not training us today, might as well train ourselves."
Reeka's straight jumped to a grin as she nodded and went over to him. Yugo surprised her by attempting a roundhouse, only to miss and get kicked in the foot by Reeka, making him trip over and land on his back. Reeka bent over and snickered, "Aw, did you fall down?"
Yugo mumbled, "I wish you'd finish it so you'd go to jail."
"Huh?"
"Bad joke. Anyway…"
He jumped back up and roundhoused her successfully into a tree. She fell on stomach, and then went berserk charging into him as the punches and blows were getting blocked by Yugo. He was breaking several sweats to keep up with the little Riolu until…
She jumped up and kicked his face, throwing him backwards onto the ground again. Yugo just cracked his neck and jumped towards her, grabbed her, and the two were doing a back and forth who can kick whose ass the fastest. The morning's training was primarily that and Yugo barely managed to win if it weren't for the interruption of a Bunnelby. After the intensive, or semi-intensive, training and punching fest, Yugo sat down as he had Reeka on his lap.
He asked her, "You what's weird?"
She asked, "What?"
"The fact that you haven't been looking as if you want to be stabbed."
She was confused, "What?"
"Basically that bored and annoying look."
"Well… I don't like that Lucario's training."
"Oh come on, it's better than mine."
"But… you're easier to win against."
"Yeah, but he's an example of who you might fight with in the future. Actually it'd be funny if you do get stuck fighting against him in the GT."
She grumbled as Yugo rubbed her head, causing her to get annoyed once again, "Could you stop that."
"Stop what?"
"Rubbing my head."
"Why not?"
"It's annoying."
"Oh come on, don't you like it?"
"No."
"You sure."
"Yes."
"What if I rub behind the ears?"
That changed her mood as she was actually enjoying the behind the ears rub, but caught herself and showed a look that meant she still didn't like it. But Yugo told her, "You like, don't deny it."
Reeka protested, "I don't."
"Well, your mind says otherwise."
She crossed her arms and grumbled again. Yugo stopped and got up as he said, "Well, let's continue training. It's still not lunch time and…"
Out of the bushes came Rebecca again as she said, "Hey, you won't believe it but that attack at Luminose tower didn't stop Mr. Limon."
Yugo asked her, "Why not, I'd figure if they went in and nearly killed him…"
"Yes, but he said he was willing to do only daytime gym battles which means we don't have to do any travel *even though I'd like some travelling* and you can get his badge."
"Cool, now if grandpa would stop killing everyone we can be all set for life. Is that all?"
Rebecca continued, "Well… kinda a note from Judas… he wants you to train your Pokémon."
"I take it he's sick of it?"
"Well, I'm training the little couple. You can train Keir and Ghezirha."
"Alright sounds good. C'mon Reeka, might as well have multi-training."
Reeka mumbled under her breath with Ghezirha's name popping into the conversation. The three of them got back to camp as Judas appeared and threw a rock at Yugo, "You train them! I'm going on vacation!"
Yugo smartassed, "Where? In the snow?"
"No, away from camp!"
Once Judas disappeared into the forest, Yugo said, "Ok… off to training!"
And thus, he trained his three Pokémon as Rebecca trained the couple. Problem, when Ghezirha and Reeka were being trained together, they would butt heads, act aggressive, or even throw an insult or two. Yugo attempted to break it up, but that didn't work and if anything they'd fight again.
It didn't make sense and Yugo thought the two were thinking in their heads who was the alpha female; which was a dumber idea than his first idea of them just hating each other's guts finally. Training ended once it was lunch time and Rebecca ran to town and back getting food and other supplies. As she handed out the food, Yugo praised, "Maybe it's a good thing we got you on the team."
She crossed her arms, but grinned, "Oh, as a waitress?"
"No, I'm saying in terms of getting things we need fast."
Prideful, she nodded, "True, true."
"And it probably is great in bed."
She nodded, caught it, and then kicked Yugo in the ass, sending him 50 feet behind. She yelled, "Their also good for kicking your ass every time you make a smartass comment!"
Aside of the idiocrasy, lunch was still tense with the hostility in the air and unfortunately when Judas got back, he looked and saw there was a problem. He walked to Yugo and asked, "What happened this time? Everyone seems to be…
Yugo answered, "I pissed off Rebecca with a bad joke and Ghezirha and Reeka are going at each other's throats for some reason. Weirdly, the only calm ones are Jacques, Keir and Elene. Speaking off which, you three have no problems, right?"
Those three shook their heads, then Yugo smiled, "See? Perfectly fine… for now at least."
He was right. After lunch, training became a competition as Reeka and Ghezirha were still acting like little bitches and kept attacking each other. Yugo tried to stop it, but after refusal set in; he just said to hell with it and went to train Keir.
This entire setup that Yugo wanted collapsed and he wasn't able to get Reeka out of her funk without Ghezirha breathing down his neck and vice versa. The afternoon, thus, was finished and evening became dark, Yugo gave up, and they all went to bed. Ok, yes, there was some training before they went to bed, but there wasn't anything worth mentioning. Before Yugo went into his bag, Reeka and Ghezirha wanted to stay out for private reasons. Yugo didn't have a good feeling on it, but decided to trust them for this one time and allowed them to go.
After they went to bed, the two canines went to the field as Reeka told Ghezirha, "I had enough of this. I'm going to show that I'm the one who's in charge."
Ghezirha just threw back, "Let me tell you something, you're shorter than me and you expect me to allow you to get in charge? Besides, I told you already, you don't even open up to him."
"Neither do you."
"At least I gave something!"
Reeka stopped and seethed, "Gave him what?"
"I gave him a human kiss."
Reeka's eye twitched as then she charged at Ghezirha, "NYAAAAAAHH!"
Attempted to punch, Ghezirha dodged and kicked the Riolu across the field. Reeka got up and threw an aura ball, then another, and another, all missing as Ghezirha dodged. She used dark claw and scraped Reeka, driving her across the dirt, becoming an easy target. Reeka did not give up and kept her running spirit, which was becoming more and more weary.
Ghezirha saw she had only one hit left in her, so this would be a simple battle… a simple takeout and she'll be the one that Yugo has to love. She took a deep breath, aimed herself at the standing Riolu, and charged fast. Her speed, her aim, she jumped…
Reeka punched her in the nose, spraying blood about as Ghezirha held her front paws to it. She got up, despite the blood on her, but what she saw with Reeka was worrying. Reeka had blood on her paws as well, but her facial expression wasn't pain.
She looked at it, then a grin appeared, then a toothy smile as she had her evidence to show… she was the leader here. She then charged at Ghezirha as the Absol did so as well, but Reeka used a karate chop, and bashed her nose again, spraying more of the red liquid about, sending both onto the ground as repeatedly, Reeka beat Ghezirha.
The psychotic smile as she was attacking the Absol, beating, fighting, punching, injuring… it was her slowly made happiness. Ghezirha used whatever strength she had and kicked her across the field, but it didn't stop as Reeka began a chuckle. She teased, "Come on, you Absol. Can't fight a Riolu no more?"
Ghezirha looked with struggling growl as Reeka's scary smile remained, "I think we know who exactly is…"
She glowed…
Ghezirha was beginning to panic, 'Yugo, please save me…'
The glow ended as a Lucario came out, with a scarier smile, "The only one for Yugo."
She made and aura sphere aimed right at Ghezirha's head, and far aside, Yugo did appear as she saw the event, "Reeka? GHEZIRHA!"
He was about to see the Lucario, seemingly ready to kill Ghezirha…
A bone rush hit Reeka in the head, making the eyes cross and fall to the side. It was Eriktar as he looked at the Absol, only for her to ask, "Wh-wh-who-o-o…"
Eriktar said, "Enough, I did my part, now let him do his."
And he ran off as Yugo got to the field, "Holy shit, Ghezirha, you ok?"
She shook her head as Yugo looked over, "Damn… you're way too injured. Who did this?"
She muttered, "Reeka… did."
"R-Reeka?"
He looked to the Riolu as he said, "Oh my God… I got a Lucario… and one that's a psycho."
(In Dahara City)
Reeka's near murdering of Ghezirha out of the way, Italy was at the sort of mysterious manor of W. Now, he didn't come along because he had a feeling it wasn't a simple date and dinner. So he brought along the four gangsters and his wife, only Midori was brought along as a way to see where the conversation was going and to see what this W guy has in his head.
When the six of them got to the door, Italy said, "Now to knock. But because I'm a douche."
He pulled a knife out and bashed it on the six times, making the cuts, then quickly hid it. Opening the door was a Lopunny standing about his height as he asked, "Oh, you're Professor Italy?"
Italy nodded, "Yes, and you must be the latest attempt at growth hormone testing, right?"
The Lopunny crossed his arms, "My name is Florian, if you may."
"And may I do not. Now, where the hell is this W bastard?"
Florian rolled his eyes, "I'll lead you to him, but can you please keep your insults to yourself?"
"You obviously don't know who the fuck I am. Now, please show us."
Florian showed them downward the hall from the dorm as the gang looked to get a good view. Jerome commented, "Must be a millionaire."
Austin nodded, "Yeah, let's rob the guy when he's not looking."
Jake nodded, "Yeah, good idea."
Kevanin chucked, "Yeah, and kill him, stealing everything."
Austin snapped his fingers, "Perfect."
Good thing they were whispering, otherwise the Lopunny would definitely get them arrested. Now, near the end of the hall, the Lopunny showed them to the door, "This is the main dining hall where he is. Now if you can…"
Frank just went with it, "Yeah, opening doors for a grand entrance."
He opened the doors…
"OH SHIT NO, NAH, NAH, NAH, NAH, NAH!"
Jerome was screaming as he ran down the hall to the exit, only for Austin to yell, "Get him!"
Kevanin teleported over, grabbed him and brought him back as the guy screamed, "NO, YOU AIN'T BRINGING ME IN THERE!"
They all grabbed him and pushed him through the doors as he yelled, "LISTEN TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
And the doors closed as Frank asked, "Now, what the hell is… oh shit."
He looked at the other side of the table as he saw Jerome's screaming fit… the other end of the table… had one of the deadliest Pokémon in the region… Wafu. He gave a smile, not of friendliness, but of standard business, "Ah, Professor Italy. I see you accepted the invitation."
Frank nodded, "Yeah, not knowing I was getting a dinner date with death but, eh, seen worse."
"Well, do sit down."
Frank did and so did Midori, taking two seats and seeing the food with them. The rest of the table was filled with several Pokémon as Frank mumbled to Midori, "This makes Lysander look way better."
She nodded, only as Wafu asked, "Now Italy, why did you bring… your slightly noisy friends? The response I gave was to allow you and your wife."
Frank smirked, "Yeah, but I decided let's play asshole and be vague as well."
"I see."
Frank looked at the table and spotted four faces that made his smirk disappear. It was a tall Delphox, a tall mega Lucario, a Zoroark, and… Clement.
He asked, pretending not to know, "So, what is the reason I'm here? And it's not to have me killed."
Wafu explained, "No. I have other issues to attend to on those matters. You should know something about the Teams obviously, right?"
"Yeah…"
"And I'm sure the name society rings a bell?"
"Yeah…"
"Now… what about the Iron Syndicate?"
"Might have… I don't know. What about it."
"The entire city here is a covering for the Syndicate's existence and operations, and obviously we know about your trading with those criminal teams."
Italy then cut abruptly, "Cut your bullshit and get to the main point."
Wafu whipped, "Hold your arrogance back, and I will.
"Recently, there have been several of these society members getting shot and executed by the team so far being identified with as Flare. Now, the odd thing is that the assassins aren't from Flare. In fact… those 'guards'… are the assassins."
The gangster's stiffened up, but kept a sharp eye as Kevanin psychically scanned everyone as Midori checked Wafu's head. Frank asked, "Let's say they are, and they have done the shootings and shit, what does it have to do with the Society, or you?"
"Well… the Syndicate does business with the Society and you targeting their leaders unfortunately disrupts the trade."
"Oh, cool, thanks, now… *grabs something that looks like a meatball* what do you have in mind?"
Wafu changed mood, "Now, let's be very honest. I'm letting you with one choice and the choice is very simple: cut off the ties with your criminal friends and join us under our gunpoint… or we simply take you out."
Frank asked again, "Alright, let's say it like this: Attempt to kill me and every one of these little shit eating douchebags die in the room tomorrow by a nuclear missile strike, how'dya like that deal ya black shark toothed Froakie?"
Wafu growled, showing those "shark teeth" as Jerome went up to Frank and whispered in panic, "You don't just insult someone like that, especially him."
Frank simply waved him off and then stood up, "Well, seeing that your shit is just that and more worthless my shit, I'm getting out of here, sending you a fuck you note, and I'm not going to be serious in this case because my wife got all the info I need. Ain't that right dear?"
He smiled to her as she blushed a slight bit. He then put on a hat and said, "Now, *grab a napkin and writes 'fuck-you'* I'm going for walk to the car. The moon's out so can't go for one anywhere else. Bye."
He walked out as the group looked and were even surprised as Austin said, "We're gonna die."
Kevanin calmed him down, "Grandpa can't be that bad… right?"
"Not as bad as you."
The tall Delphox came up to them as so did Clement and Mortem. Kevanin said, "Yeah… we're gonna die."
And they left the room without so much as giving a look. Wafu, on the other hand, was now annoyed with the meeting dinner as he said, "What they say of his arrogance is true. The next time, if ever, that I do invite him again, he will not be able to do any remarks like that again."
(In Kanto)
Team Domination was currently having the Mewthree stay in the region for a couple of days. Currently it was under Giovanni's visual clearance and so far it has seemed to be worthy enough. In his office, he said, "Very well, it knows the basics, what to do, and how to act. Now then, what about that other one?"
The Director asked, "Um, well she'z still in the incubation so she won't be ready for… a couple more days."
"Didn't you say that before?"
"Well, I'm exactly a machine that can give you the precise dating."
"Yes, yes, I see. Well, at least this won't blow up like the others."
The Mewthree asked, 'Others?'
"Yes, there were four others before you. Two succeeded but killed everyone, the other two succeeded but failed to cooperate and strangle him. You're the only one that made it."
'Yes, but wouldn't it have saved time if you would have not kept them as lab experiments and gave them a chance to see what the world has to offer? Thus making higher chances of total success than waiting several decades and costing hundreds of lives to attempt the progress of insane inanity only to which was solved from adding extra genes?'
A silence took place as Giovanni responded, "You're a wordy little bastard, aren't ya?
"Oh well, director please take… him to his quarters."
The director nodded, and as they walked away, Mewthree asked, 'Is this going to be a normal event?'
Röthke nodded, "Yes, it will be."
