Ok, so this is where I now apologize for two things: One, I lost my USB that had all the word documents for basically everything I wrote so I'm doing everything out of memory. And two, I also lost my laptop because reasons I won't say to not get embarrassed. However, I did go to a new technique of writing down the storyline and then writing it so I can, hopefully, minimize stupid mistakes and make a longer/better story. Well, maybe toward the end it will suck.
Enjoy!
CHAPTER 28:
It was a fine, chilled morning as the sun rose from the horizon. It beat its rays down, warming up the land below, and on the land below was the tent that stood on it. Inside, Yugo was still asleep, despite the warmth penetrating the tent.
Yugo opened his eyes and only saw puffy, white fluff right in his face. He stretched a bit out and looked to see that it was only Ghezirha, who happened to be snoozing away happily. He rolled his eyes in annoyance and attempted to shuffle out from under her. His try failed as he got out from Ghezirha, but was then grabbed by someone else, who happened to be Reeka. His head got stuck between a pair of something soft as Yugo realized what they were and quickly scurried out.
As he left the tent to get fresh air, he stopped and sighed on this whole thing. This "have both girls sleep with you just because they both want to have you" was getting annoying, especially since it didn't bring any benefit to him. But after enough fresh air, he went back into the tent and found that Ghezirha was awake, happily waging her tail and smiling. He greeted her, "Morning Ghezirha, I see you're… up and awake."
She nodded, "Yep, I'm ready for today!"
"Well, that's always good, but I was actually planning to challenge Korrina again today."
"Oh, um, do we have to fight… her?"
Yugo reassured her, knowing the last time she fought, "Don't worry, nothing bad is going to happen… I hope."
Unfortunately, it was as the beginning of the morning began with Reeka waking up, seeing the two. She had spitefulness already thrown to Ghezirha, "Back off bitch."
Ghezirha stared at her in displeasure, only for Yugo to scold both of them, "Ok, both of you, listen. I'm sick and tired of this alpha female bullshit, if you don't behave, I can send one of you, if not both, off and get rid of you."
They didn't look at him, keeping their lock on each other, as Reeka said through the telepathy, 'Yugo, we both know that you don't have the balls to do something like that. One of us is going to have you, and that's going to be me.'
Yugo sighed at the stubbornness, but part 2 was in season. Judas woke up and of course Yugo remembered last night, so he jumped over and strangled Judas, definitely waking the blond up. Judas choked out, "Wha…who…whe?"
Yugo screamed, "WHO THE HELL WAS THAT LAST NIGHT?!"
Judas spat out, "what the hell yew saying?"
"A black winged Greninja, taller than me like always, just killed two guards, bust on in like he was fucking Iron man, and flew everybody out! Don't you think that's a bit fucking…"
He got kicked aside, crashing into Reeka, "Go fight Reeka or some shit."
It was Rebecca who did it, being in a foul morning mood. Her was a mess, unlike most mornings, which matched her look as she grumbled, "You prick wavers woke me up."
Judas apologized, "Sorry, Yugo started it."
Yugo, in retaliation, gave the middle finger as Rebecca mumbled, "You two act like grown up five year olds."
Morning now officially ruined, the group left to do the morning routine of getting the training out of the way. Yugo gave Rebecca the Pokécouple of Jacques and Elene so this way he can talk the unfinished business with Judas about last night and… the "friend". As the two guys had Ghezirha fighting Keir, Yugo prompted the conversation, "Ok, I'm doing this more peacefully, who was that Greninja last night? One of your friends? A scary uncle?"
Judas sighed, knowing it had to come out sooner or later, "Fine, I'll tell you. He's… an indirect family member. His name is… Kiyask… and he's not really a bad guy. I will admit his usefulness is like his deadliness and murderous rampage, very much. Also, I reeeeally, emphasize on not doing any of his deals, they're worse than a lawyer and a contract."
Yugo, getting impatient, asked, "Fine, I think, and how, or why, is he here?"
"He's not alive, he's a spirit, which means he can simply just go inside of me and use me like a vessel. He's been with me since day one so… he's basically a helping hand. Well, that and the fact he can travel from universe to universe but I'm sure he's going to make my family worried on purpose."
"Hold on, is he that Goddamn creep from that night? Is he?"
Yugo's voice started to get hostile as Judas nervously nodded, "Y-y-yeeah, that was, hehe, Kiyask doing the whole show."
"And does he by any chance behave in any fashion like that Wafu asshole?"
"Well it depends on the situation… but yeah, he's known for raping and killing."
"Ok, and how many times was he actually confused with him?"
"Um, surprisingly only once in some kind of huge fight where he jumped in and… well, you can put the rest together."
Yugo changed subject, "Where was this fight?"
"In some kind of universe that a guy named Q forged as a dream world. It wasn't real, but because of something having to do with the cracks in the universe… it was possible. Then again, he's also known for…"
Yugo interrupted, "Yeah, yeah, hold on…"
He pulled out his 'Dex and scrolled down to the Froakie line, under Greninja, and…
"Nightmare form."
Yugo said as Judas asked him, "How the hell…"
"Grandpa said he travelled, and still travels, to a… different… universe… oh… ooooh."
Judas rolled his eyes and left, only to leave the dumbass trainer with Keir, Ghezirha, and Reeka. Yugo sighed heavily, and continued with their training.
After the morning passed, including the noontime, lunch time arrived and Rebecca just came back with the food. However, when Yugo was ready to get it, she raised out her hand, as she was wanted something. She kept her hand out and ordered, "Yugo… I want money for these trips, right fuckin now."
Yugo crossed his arms, "Why may I ask?"
"Because if I'm becoming your little waitress, I want a little pay before I break your Arceusdamn head off and get the wallet and 'Dex myself."
Seeing as he wasn't about to piss around with this girl, he put 75 dollars and change in her hand, which seemed to satisfy her, and everybody got their food. Once food was eaten, Yugo packed up the tent and cheered, "We're going off to challenge Korrina!"
Everyone of course whined, but followed the dickhead anyway. It wasn't too bad of a walk… if it were only to the gym. When they got to the gym, they found out that…
"FUCKING… FUCKING… FUCKING…"
Yugo was banging his head against the doors as a sign read that Korrina was back in Luminose. He stopped attempting to learn headbutt and yelled, "TO LUMINOSE!"
And ran straight that way, while everyone else was whining and grumbling.
(Meanwhile)
In Luminose City, sitting in a park, a Lucario is enjoying an ice-cream after two hours interviewing many people and Pokémon alike, most of it about the Global Tournament.
He sat down, enjoying his relaxing moment, "Ahhhh… what a day! *licks his ice-cream* Being a journalist is easy, but covering every minute of this event is fucking hard! Ugh!"
As he had his outburst go, a Zoroark came over and sat next to him, "Don't be so negative Flamarion. This assignment is the biggest one in we've ever done at the Unovan Times, man. Even UBC is helping us! And the money is so great, we're gonna be rich!
"But with that attitude, you and I gonna lose that money y'know?"
Flamarion grunted, "I'm aware of that, thank you."
The Zoroark checked his camera, "Grunting like that isn't going to win any promotion, Flami. It's just an easy job, the only thing is to have concentration in your tasks."
Flamarion (now with a calmer face but still serious): Y'know Jakob, sometimes you can always soothe someone like me. And that's pretty much why you're my friend since…"
"Daycare, yeah. Good time, isn't?"
"Yup, good times *checks his watch*. And speaking of time, it's time to return to the hotel to be with the rest of the team to plan our next interview."
They both got up and walked their way to the hotel they were seated at. On the way, Jakob asked, "Now, who is our next target Mr. F?"
Flamarion checked his notebook, "Uh, Let's see…oh, our next interview is… Zeraora."
Jakob was surprised by the answer, "Zeraora... The one?! He's actually here?!"
Flammarion smiled, "Yep, he arrived a week ago and called me, personally, to an exclusive visit in the outskirts. Apparently, he really wants his privacy."
Jakob then added, "Um, what time?"
"Very early in the morning."
"Ah man, I guess you're right on his privacy."
"Don't worry Jakob, it could be worse.
"Oh, speaking of worse before I forget, remember the whole Sycamore killing?"
Flamarion nodded, getting the word connection, "How could I forget? What about it?"
"Believe it or not, there was a rumor going about that the man himself survived out of pure luck. And it's not even a rumor, he actually called me this morning… and he accepted to interview, tomorrow tonight."
Flamarion stopped and yelled out of distraught, "WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME?!"
Jakob nervously smiled, "I was distracted. I'm sorry pal!
Flamarion just shook his head at his friend's forgetfulness, but brushed it off, "Well, keep walking if you want to rest. Next time, always talk to me on things like these, ok?
Jakob nodded, "Yes pal. Yes!"
"Now. Let's back to the hotel"
They continued walking toward the hotel at a rapid pace, so they can get the supplies ready for the morning.
(Back to Yugo)
The group has made it to Luminose after a five hour walk and everyone was ready to behead Yugo or simply have someone else replace him. What would've made it worse was if they made it any later: the gyms barely closed up. Korrina's was one of the few that were still open and Yugo ran in there, only to see a Golem get pummeled down by Lucario, wrecked and smooshed into the floor.
The girl who was opposing Korrina just returned the Golem and left with a raging look on her face. Afterwards, Yugo stepped onto the opposing spot and yelled, "Korrina! I challenge you for your badge, and hopefully a chance I'll win because I got two tall characters standing over me to beat the shit out of me if I lose."
And just like Judas and Rebecca stood over him as the guy screamed, "That doesn't mean literally stand over me dammit!"
Korrina, ignoring the stupidity, yelled back with adrenaline running through, "Seeing that Lucario cleaned out another one and still going, yeah, I accept your challenge!"
And as soon as it was signaled, Reeka already head onto the field. Korrianw as amazed on what a Lucario that little Riolu turned into… but was suspicious that it wasn't 100%. But no matter, she still had her plan ready as Reeka went straight ahead, no commands, and charged right at the opposing Lucario, standing there. As Reeka got closer, the tenseness increased, only for Korrina to give a planning smile and then activate the mega evolution.
Lucario grew up, changed colors, and…
Got hit in the head with Reeka's bone rush right after he mega evolved, busting his jaw, and sending him unconscious to the floor. Yugo covered his mouth at what Reeka did, 'THAT BITCH IS GOING TO GET ME SUED!'
On the opposite side, Korrina asked, 'Lucario, are you ok?!'
Lucario responded in a pain laced voice, '"Ok"… isn't in any… spectrum of this.'
Korrina put Lucario back into his ball and then brought out the second attacker. It was Machomp, standing tall and proud as Korrina said, "Since you got that Lucario of yours… sort of trained, let's see her fight off Machomp. Use hyper punch!"
Yugo yelled, "Use karate chop!"
Reeka ran up, jumped high, and attempted a cut, but the Machomp sent her flying to where Yugo was. She cracked her neck and ran right back at him, pulling out another bone rush. Yugo cringed as she was gonna fuck up, and she was. The initial jump led to her swinging the bone over the Machomp's head and slam it down, but the Machomp blocked it with a two arm thick block. She attacked again, a third, a fourth…
She was worn out, only for the Machomp to end it by flicking her in the forehead. She fell over with no trouble and Reeka was out cold. Yugo, meanwhile, wanted to run up and shake the shit out of his Lucario, but had to hold it back for tomorrow. He returned her as Korrina told him, "Surprised you didn't tell her to do any moves."
Yugo shrugged, "I'm even surprised she actually took out your Lucario, I'd figure that was the hardest."
"Well, I didn't think she'd actually do enough damage, but I stand wrong. Now, next one."
He pulled out Elene's ball and released her, sending the Delphox onto the field. Korrina was a little worried now, but still had two Pokémon to go so it shouldn't be all that bad… if only she had a Pokémon that wasn't a FIGHTING type. That didn't stop her as she yelled, "Machomp, use brawn!"
Yugo shouted, "Use psychic blast!"
And Elene swept the place with psychic energy, throwing the Macomp for a loop. Before it could regain anything, Yugo commanded, "Pyrotechnic!"
Elene looked at him in slight confusion. "I'm making up fucking names! JUST DO IT!"
She shrugged and sent a huge fire, engulfing everything, but the Macomp threw all four fists, but the fists got sent punching himself as Elene moved them to do so. The brawny fighting type got knocked out and knocked out onto the floor with ease. After the fight, Yugo was ready to cheer for his victory, but…
"Machomp return, Mienshao I choose you!"
The Mienshao jumped out and already armed itself with its whips. Korrina chuckled a little, "Y'know, it's kinda funny seeing that last time you got the lower edge of having dark types. Now, I got the lower edge on fighting types, but that won't stop me. Use precision cut!"
Yugo yelled, "Elene, use psybeam!"
The beam was formed and fired, shooting off the fighting type's left side, but the Mienshao kept its focus and attacked Elene, causing her to throw the Mienshao into the air. This made the Mienshao go into a dive bomb mode, and Elene making a little psybeam…
She ignited it, causing an explosion to blast up a cloud of dust. When the dust cleared, Yugo stood there as he fist pumped in the air, "I WON!"
Then pulled out a note book, "Name… move… Al-lah-u-ak-bah."
After writing it down, he returned Elene. Korrina walked over as she congratulated, "Well done Yugo, surprised you actually had it to beat me. And to show that you did succeed in doing so, I am awarding you the badge of the gym."
She came over and pulled out a little device. "Now, hold out your 'Dex."
Yugo did so and a badge appeared, scanned in. He put it away as Korrian continued, "Ya know, it's not every day that somebody would actually take me on as their first gym."
Yugo shrugged, "Yeah, well, I thought of the other characters but it was the first stop to see if I could actually kick your ass… or at least have my Lucario do that to your Lucario's."
"Well, I guess that's payback from last time, but of course you can come by anytime."
"Really?"
"Sure, Lucario won't mind as long as you ask."
She winked as Yugo put two and two together, gently denying, "Um, no thanks, maybe just for regular visits."
Reeka would've killed her right there and then if she actually got that. Korrina shrugged anyway, "Alrihgt then, good luck to you!"
Yugo waved back and left, but on the outside, Judas already was in a pissy mood as he held a bayonet to Yugo's throat, "Now, after walkin' tee long way down her' to this fuckin' jim, I'm goin' to a hotel, yew can walk yer sor'y ass back to tee camp!"
And walked away. Yugo told Rebecca, "Um, Rebecca, just as a precaution, make sure he doesn't go and buy out half the liquor store."
She nodded, remembering what he did the last couple of times, and ran after Judas. Yugo sighed now, seeing that he had to walk those five hours back to camp… at like 7 at night. But, at least he had Ghezirha at his side to keep him company.
At around 9:30, Yugo was halfway there to the camp, feeling the cold night pierce his skin. And what made the night more so was the cold feeling increasing, causing the hairs on Yugo's neck to stick out. He looked up in the sky, with the cold, blowing wind, and saw a being in a tall tree. He couldn't tell what it was… but it opened it's wings… wings? WINGS?!
Yugo then began to run faster, only for the being the fall and slam Yugo to the ground, whispering, "Surprised? Probably not. But it was only a matter of time before I got reintroduced to this world. Well, I the sense that I don't even come here for starters."
Yugo muttered in fear, "What do you want from me?"
"You? Nothing I want. All I do say is that if you want to stay as a whole body without any organs missing or dissected, I suggest to behave well with Judas. Now, not all the time, a little tattling and annoyance is perfectly fine, but any further and… let's say I might just get his mother into the picture. Now, off I go…"
He jetted off and disappeared, only as Ghezirha was there looking spooked.
(In Dahara)
After Yugo got shell-shocked, Dahara had its own issues. Wafu, after the event decided to rally up all the owners of businesses, communications, and general infrastructure. Of course, he brought along his own group of friend and guards, but they couldn't speak their own mind if you have the other 20 some odd corporate assholes chattering and waffling all at once.
Wafu blew his top, "ENOUGH!"
Everyone shut up as he fumed, "Now, let's get this straight: The main goal here is to get Italy off our backs and getting rid of him usual standard assassination isn't going to work. However, it could be done if we plot this out, which I have.
"The telecommunications operations will tap into his lab and attempt to retrieve any locations so we can hopefully secure and arrest him ourselves. We'll use the main corporations as a way to hopefully get this bastard under control… and finally…
"If any of his little pawns decide to get in the way once more… I think we'll simply capture a couple of his family members as bribery material. Italy will come down and we will not fail."
(In Kanto)
Aside from that crazy asswipe, we now go to a nicer place. Mewthree was still in his little curiosity state, which was normal seeing he didn't know what the hell was going on, and was pretty intrigued going back in history. He looked up several books and articles on the past events, seeing how bad it has been. Rocket itself was a criminal group and he wasn't feeling well with it. But for some reason, he also saw that not everybody was a cold hearted criminal.
The best example was that woman he always sees every day. While she might not seem like a friendly type, he saw inside that she actually was a pretty good person and wasn't really that mean.
He shook his head, trying to stay on track. He continued his research and every time he finds a file linked to any Team… Italy's name always appears. Murders are drawn to him, money laundering, heists, illegal activities, and corruption from minor offensive to government interventions… Mewthree was appalled and now was nervous of actually being here. He didn't want to leave and cause a ruckus but… did he have to fight for…
"Hey, what are you doing?"
His mind snapped out as he turned around seeing the woman again, 'Oh… sorry.'
"This is a restricted area for high grade files. Besides, how the hell did you get in here?"
'I just… teleported in.'
"Oh… figures, and what the hell are you even reading?"
'Historical articles. I found files that seemed to belong towards Team Rocket history alongside of historical events such as the Kanto Crusade, the Unova Takedown…'
"I get it, I get it."
'But, this man… Francesco J. Italy… why is he… the way he is?'
"I don't know. One time, Giovanni was told by that guy himself that he hated Ash Ketchum so bad he wanted to ruin the world. I never understood how he could have gotten that bad all because of this one kid."
'Me neither… I still find it strange as the boy has never done anything to Italy, thus making his rage seeming to be irrational and illogical.'
The woman sighed, "Oh well, we'll find out what's in that guy's head soon."
Rate and Review.
Different order for this: credits to Xbyt92 for the dialogue of Flamarion and Jakob.
Let's see how this goes with my new drawback.
