Chapter 22
^^; So SOOO sorry for the long wait, but with school finished I needed to get work or find a course, and with that I've been working on other hobbies over on my Deviantart account. But anyway here is chapter 22! The long awaited chapter! For those of you that stayed I thank you, and maybe I will get the old fans back as well.
I will say it was good that I waited like I did, otherwise I wouldn't have the chapter I have now and I've happy with it, the ideas I had for this chapter changed over the months and then I settled onto this one.
Now onto the chapter! I will remind you guys as well that I'm not that active on here, please head over to my Deviantart account to get in contact with me and check out drawings, the account is the same name. Also going to be releasing chapter one on there very soon so yay!
You know that feeling, when you just can't get away from trouble, like it just follows you around ready to strike with unrelenting force to ruin any happiness you had. I feel like this all the time, it seems to just get worse as I grow up, but I never thought I would be hunted like a wild pokemon, to be caught and studied.
It seems like my life will never get better, and now standing in front of a guy that can kill at any moment, and below two choppers that also want to take me just fills me with sorrow.
"Sora…", I heard Tom's voice as I kept my focus on Echo, making sure he wouldn't get any closer.
"I know…", I responded, still very concerned about Team Rocket above us. I could just feel everyones emotions, scared… frighten… but oddly relieved, maybe because we finally been reunited, but what tops all these emotions is that I can feel is fear, they all fear what's about to happen. There was no way out of this, we couldn't run from this nor could I fight for very long, I'm already worn out as it is, and I don't want to put anyone else in harms way.
Staring at Echo then glancing up at the Team Rocket choppers, no plan came to mind to protect everyone here. They're in danger because of me and I need to act before these guys do.
"...Okay… Coal you're with me, we need to deal with Echo", I mumbled down to him, which I'm sure he wouldn't disagree with me. I glance back to the others, "Tom, Tabatha, I need you two to deal with Team Rocket", They look over to each other then back at me a second later, and nodded.
I faced Echo one more time and got into position, as did Coal. "Ready or not!", I shouted at him and ran right for him, Coal right behind me. Echo smirked and the leafs on his arm grew bigger and brighter as he ready his Leaf Blade, I myself started to glow a bit and started to run faster using Quick Attack and ran straight for him.
Echo took a swipe at me with his Leaf Blade and with the speed I was at I easily dodged it and flew past him and great speeds. Echo turned around and glared at me seeming to forget that Coal was right behind him.
Coal opened his mouth wide and fired off an intense Flamethrower, striking Echo's back as he screamed out in immense pain. I grinned finally seeing him go down to his knees, which he did quite easily, falling on his face with closed eyes. I sighed from relief finally knowing that he was taken care of and out of my way, but I still have problems to deal with as I looked up to the choppers.
They were still pretty much intact still with only one of them slightly smoking from damage. I look down to the others and see Hidden Power fly up towards the coppers. Luna was still fighting against Team Rocket but I can tell she was getting tired just like me. With Tabatha, she had what looks like a Beautifly out, she told me about the rest of her pokemon and if I could remember correctly I think it was a girl named… Princess. Maybe one of the better pokemon she could have pick to deal with this.
As I stared at my friends watching them deal with Team Rocket, ropes came down from the sky. I looked up and saw they came from the choppers, I wasted no time and ran back to the others with Coal besides me. As I skidded to a halt and turned around, four Team Rocket members slid down the ropes and planted themselves on the ground, turning to face us.
I could no longer fight, all my strength was gone and I feel like I could pass out at any moment. Luna had the same expression and Clare was behind Luna, not wanting to fight anymore. As we watched the Team Rockets move closer, we backed off, not wanting to fight anymore. With our remaining pokemon we should be able to get out of here.
The members grinned and watched us back off, like they had the upper hand, which my eyes told me that they didn't. One of the grunts walked closer and held out her arm, it seemed to have a device on it, sort of like the one Darcy had when we last met but slightly… different, it didn't look to have the same function like his.
"Give up now, or face us", the lady told us, I looked up and down their bodies and couldn't find any pokeballs.
Are these people nuts? They had no way of fighting us, they would lose. "I don't think so!", I yelled back which only seemed to make her happy.
"I thought you might say that", she reached behind her and pulled out a disk. We were all very confused as to what she was doing, I tilted my head to the side in confusion, trying to figure out what's happening. The other grunts just snickered as she inserted the disk into the device she was holding out, "You will regret that. Men! Ready!".
The other grunts stopped snickering and stood at attention as they too inserted disks into their own devices. As they did a gem on top of it glew bright, showing that something was happening. As quickly as the gems glowed so did their bodies, if not for only a second.
"Enough of this, Princess use Gust!", Tabatha commanded, Princess moved forward and flapped her wings, the grunts shielding their faces as the attack makes contact. One of them raised their arm that had the device on and it started to glow red before something surprising happened that shocked all of us.
From the device a steady stream of fire hauled out of it and struck Princess with a painful direct hit. She fell to the ground and quickly got returned by a stunned Tabatha. The grunts all laughed as we just stood there, trying to figure out what just happened. Are… are they like me…? But as I look at them again I saw nothing that showed that they were anything like me or Echo.
"Confused? Good, we told you will regret-", the lady cut off her sentence and widened her eyes. I was confused but not for long, right behind her was Echo, with glowing leafs as their glow faded. The lady fall forward and fell flat on the ground, a huge gash on her back pouring out with blood. Tabatha widen her eyes speechless and Tom turned around and threw up, I don't blame him, it wasn't a pretty sight. Echo turned to the other grunts and his leafs glew once more.
"Want to join her?", he told the others in a voice that just sent chills down your spin. The others needed no repeat as they bolted back to the ropes and grabbed hold as the choppers lifted them up and flew off. It seems they had enough messing around… and so did Echo as he turned back to face us, unhappy and his eyes flaming with anger, "We still have a fight to finish Umbreon".
I didn't want to fight anymore, I've had enough, I couldn't do it anymore and I'm not putting my pokemon in a fight with him. I shook my head, "No… no more, we're done Echo…", I firmly told him. This didn't go down well with the crazed man as he chuckled.
"Oh… we're nowhere near done!", he yelled out and bolted at me with speed that took everyone by surprise. No one had time to react and those leafs were pointed right for me. I closed my eyes waiting for the attack to make contact… but it never came, no pain… no nothing, I'm really confused to what happened. I opened my eyes to find a new figure standing in front of me.
"You won't harm this child Echo", The figure said as it pushed back Echo. I could hear a faint growl coming from the figure. It turned around and again I'm shocked as to what I saw, it looked like a Glaceon, but it was around the same height as me and was in a white cloak wearing clothes, it was a really weird sight to see but he seemed just like me… but different. "You guys okay?", he asked which I just responded with a nod. He sighed, "Thank Mew, I thought I would never get to you on time", he turns back to Echo looking quite pissed himself.
Echo smiled as he stared at the Glaceon guy. "Ahh Frost, so nice for you to drop in", he frowns, "What do you think you're doing?".
"Something I should have done ages ago", he said to Echo. He turn his head so he can see us, "Sora… take your friends and go!". This guy or whatever knew my name. It isn't really hard to know about it now that I think about it, seeing as I'm all over the news. I just stood there confused, staring at this unknown thing, a tugging at my shirt pulled me from my little staring contest.
"Sora come on!", Exclaimed Tabatha as she turned around and ran for it, Tom and our pokemon already ahead of her. I stood there a little longer trying to figure out what's happening. Who is this guy? Why does he look like a pokemon? Is he like me, an experiment of Team Horizon? I wanted to ask him so many questions as to who he was, unfortunately I wouldn't get my answer as he snarled at me.
"Leave!", As he finished he turned to Echo, a ball formed in front of his mouth as it shot jagged beams of freezing cold energy, an Ice Beam. I knew that a fight was starting and I shouldn't be here any longer, I turned and ran for it, following behind Tabatha and the others.
We ran all the way back to Pewter City, and I was happy to be anywhere but that forest. It was a nice change from being hunted. On the run here we didn't talk, just kept going as fast as we could, the sooner we got into town the safer it was.
We ran through the streets, people staring at pointing at us, me mostly, muttering to themselves. I could pick up what most of them were talking about, mostly just saying that I'm back and things along those lines. We just ignored everyone as we ran straight into the pokemon center, as I entered Tom grabbed my arm and dragged me down the hall almost throwing me off balance. I noticed that Tabatha was at the desk most likely getting us rooms again.
Tom finally stopped dragging me down the hall to wait for Tabatha, as I leaned against the wall to catch my breath for the first time for a long time, I was greeted with a huge hug from Tom, a long awaited hug. "Sora…", Tom barely got out as he started to break out in tears, hearing him cry made me want to cry, but I was so exhausted from the fight and running so far that I could barely keep my eyes open. With what strength I had left I raised my arms and hugged Tom back.
"Sora, this is all my fault", Tom muttered out under his loud tears, "I'm so sorry". I would have replied, but something felt off, yes I was exhausted and wanted to pass out but this felt different… something bad. Slowly in Toms arms my eyes grew heavy as they slowly closed while I struggled to keep them open, the last thing I heard was Tom calling out for me as everything around me went dark.
Soon after I felt the feeling of falling, I open my eyes but only to see dankness, falling back first into the abyss. No sound could be heard, only the feeling of free fall. "What's… happening…", I mumble to myself, trying to figure out why this feels so wrong. "Aeon…." I quietly called out, but with no response, Aeon is always here to greet me but this time… nothing.
The more I fall the more I feel… different. For a little while now I've noticed dark fog come up around me the further I fall, it's a sort of numbing sensation, taking all the pain away, leaving me to feel nothing but the warmth it brings. I don't know why I'm thinking like this, I want to be awake I want to be with Tom and my friends, or at least be talking with Aeon, instead I got this free fall into the darkness.
It's been awhile and I've began to forget things… at first it was only small things, like to take out the trash on Tuesday and my schools timetable, then I've started to forget important things… Luna, Tom… my dads face… all of it, slipping away, falling through the cracks of my fingers. How desperately I tried to hold on, but only to fail, reaching out to grab the memories that fade only to forget what I was doing. I soon forgot mostly everything as I just fall, more fog than there used to be, it growing more cold than warm.
I can feel that my time getting shorter, as I neared the end of this fall… as I neared the end of my life. If I could remember anything, I would be crying a river, crying out for the ones I care about saying how sorry I was, but I couldn't remember anything, just kept falling, staring up to where I've been.
Strangely, I began to feel different emotions and feelings. I felt the need to run among the trees and rivers, having my paws touch the soft soil after it's just rained and playing with the mud with my mate. All I feel is the need to hunt and survive in the wild, that's all I want to do. With this thoughts, there is one thing I can't stop thinking about, one thing that's been in my mind since the beginning. Aeon, he's been in the back of my mind the whole time, he is the one thing I can remember. All our conversations are a blur but I know they were about something, but I have no idea…
As I tried to make out what we were talking about, a soft, barely audible sound could be heard. With the strength I could muster I tired to look around for the sound, but only to be greeted with darkness. The sound's growing stronger, but I just wanted to close my eyes and think about my next meal, and where to find a mate. "...Sora…", the sound finally becoming something I could understand. Sora…. that's my name… I think. Someone knows me? I couldn't think straight and if someone knew me, then that can help me find a mate, maybe we can form a pack.
I struggle to open my eyes, when I finally did I was greeted with darkness again, but this time up above from where I came from, a small speck of light sits there. "...Sora…", The sound said once again, but this time I'm able to tell where it's coming from, it's towards the sky to the light. "Sora….darkness…", this voice sounds familiar, and it's easy to figure out.
"...Aeon…", I managed to get out before the dark fog entered my lungs causing me to cough.
"Sora… fight…", fight? Fight what? I'm slowly falling with nothing to stop me, powerless to stop my fate. "...Remember…". Aeon isn't making sense, remember what, our talks? They're all blurry and our speech muted, but Aeon is my only friend, I should at least try.
I closed my eyes again and tried to think about Aeon and about what he wants me to remember, if anything at all. I think and think small bits of our talks in my memory become clear and understandable. Talking about hunting and changing… about… Luna? "...Luna…", this name… I know it from somewhere, but from where. The name brings warmth but has no face, just a name with no body. Another name popped up, Tom, who is this Tom. Does he know this Luna as well? All I know is that these names bring warmth to my body and warms it up from the cold, bone chilling darkness.
I focused on these names, not letting them slip away, they mean something to me, something important. The longer I thought about them the more came back to me, more of Aeon and my conversations. Faces started to form for the names and I had memories and emotions came back, but… I still felt incomplete.
Feeling this way again, I felt warm and alive. I opened my eyes with new energy, seeing the dark fog cover most of my body, I know this could be good. Wait… fight… maybe Aeon, wants me to fight my way out, but how do you fight something that you can't touch. "Sora… fight… remember…", Aeon's voice again comes from the speck of light above. He's trying desperately to get through to me, seeing as I'm remembering things, there's no way I'm going to stop I'm going to trust in Aeon and remember.
Memories and memories flood back as I slowly regain all that I forgotten, Luna, Tom, Coal, Dash and Pulse, Tabatha, Dad, Marry and Mark. Everyone I care about, flooding into my mind, giving me emotions and joy, but also sorrow and panic, all that I forgot and lived through coming back and making me live through again.
Before long everything was back and sorted in my mind, I once again remember my life. This only brings on questions now as to what's going on, why did I forget everything I held dear and how did I get here? "Sora, fight it", Aeon again spoke, but this time it was very clear and easy to understand. I look around me to the fog, still encasing my body, before long it will consume it all.
I needed to think fast, I needed to do something to get out, get back to my life. I struggle against the fog, trying to get my body out, but out of nowhere I suddenly stop falling and feel a force hit my back like I hit the ground. I struggle more only to find that the fog is actually pushing down on me, trying to stop me from getting free, whatever this stuff is it wants me to forget.
I struggle more only to find it useless as the fog consumes my body. The feeling of coldness slowly comes back as I feel lonely and alone… forgotten. "Sora, don't give up… fight!", Aeon screams at me, he must know what's going on and wants to get me out. What can I do if I can't even move, do anything other than lay here and wait for the end. I stare up the darkness that is the sky and the speck of light, thinking about how much I've changed since this happened only to have it cut short.
The light sparkles, growing lighter and dimmer. Why is it there, besides having Aeons voice play through. My mind started to wander, trying to think about the light when it should be thinking of a way out, then something struck me, to beat the darkness you need light. From when I was little I've been scared of the dark, mostly dark pokemon but the dark nonetheless, with what's been happening to me I've learnt to deal with this fear, and grow up, Aeon helped and so have my friends. If anything it's my friends that give me strength that give me the energy to move on and continue my life, without them I would have given up ages ago.
My body grows warmer than ever with these new thoughts. "I won't give up, not now, I've come too far!", I growl as I struggle against the fog, it seem it's grown weaker since I last tried. With a bit more effort I manage to pull my body from the fog and stood on my two feet. I smile and watch the darkness retreat from me but still stays close. It won't get me today, It will never get me.
I stand there and look up to the light in the darkness, "Aeon…", He helped me come to my senses and helped me come back, I owe him, but I'm still stuck here with the darkness just at arms reach. I keep staring at the speck of light, the longer I stared the more I feel… different, but not the bad kind, more like… powerful. I feel as a new power rests within me, something that reminds me of my friends and the purity of light.
I close my eyes and focus on this new power, trying to show itself, maybe it's my way out. I kept focusing and focusing, pinpointing the energy in me for me to use. As I did my body grew warmer and warmer, I open my eyes to see my body glowing, brighter and brighter the more I focus on this feeling. I again look up to the light and raise my hand and paw above my head, now focusing the energy to them. Almost instantly a small glowing white ball forms in front of my hand and paw, as my it grows my body grows dimmer and dimmer, the energy flowing into the ball. Soon after the energy was was out and ready to fire, I focus on the speck of light and readied myself. The ball glows brighter and brighter, letting off pulses of energy, before firing at tremendous speeds, flying high and higher.
The ball of light soon left my sight as it blended in with the light above, I waited and waited but… nothing, nothing happened. The Darkness started to creep its way back to me, ready for round two. Before it makes it to me, a faint sound echoed in the darkness, I look up to the light as it flashes and sparkles, it soon burst into a blinding light covering the whole abyss in light. I cover to protect my eyes from the harsh light, still bright even through my protection.
It took awhile but the light died down and I was able to see again, the entire void is now lit up in a warm light, I look up to where the speck of light was to see the sky sparkling and small orbs of light slowly fall down, hitting the ground and adsorbing into it only to be replaced by more.
The sight was… breath taking, and that it was all taking place in my mind made it only that more awesome, our minds are wonderful things, easy to forget but last years, able to produce emotions and feelings, able to work under conditions to have thing live. It's also fragile that it can be easily damaged and taken for granted, like what happened to me, I forgot everything so easily, the darkness won without me having a chance to fight. With each experience I grow stronger, and next time I won't give in so easily.
Going on about my new thoughts, I notice to shadowy circles on the ground in front of me, I backed off as it only brings trouble, and I was right. The shadows started to raise up and take shape, soon looking a lot like me, only with now features on the body, just a shadow. "W-What the…", this is just getting confusing, it's… me.
The shadows slowly move towards me, they wanted to grab hold of me again like last time, I wasn't going to go down without a fight. I move into a battle pose and started to growl, showing that they want me, they'll have to get me. The Shadows take up the same pose as me but without the growling and charge, I was ready.
Out of nowhere comes a Shadow Ball and flies right through one of the shadows as it dissolves and turns into nothing. The attack gained the attention of me and the other shadow. I look over to see another Shadow Ball fly past and go right through the last shadow as it too faded into nothing.
I turn my head to see where they came from, to find a Umbreon standing not to far away from me, only one guess at who it was. "Aeon!", I exclaimed happily, it was nice to finally have someone I know with me.
Aeon looked up to meet my eyes and smiled, "Sora", he walked over to me and sat in front of me while I knelt down to meet his gaze. "It's good to see you're okay".
I smiled, "Well… I wouldn't be here if you didn't reach through to me. I owe you", I told him giving him a scratch behind the ear to show him I meant it. Aeon closed his eyes and purred to the scratching which start to make me want to get scratched, I shook my head to get the idea out and stop scratching. "So what happened?".
Aeon opened his eyes again to stare at me, his happy face gone, "I told you I should have taken over back there".
"What… why?", now he's just making me confused.
"Because you used too much energy, you let the virus almost destroy your mind!", I just stood there, staring at him trying to process what he just told me, "And with Edge there he helped push it along! Yes you managed to survive this time, but what if this happens again?".
I kept thinking, processing this information. So that fog and darkness was the virus that Team Horizon put in me, and it was...destroying me? That's why I forgot everything, and why I was feeling those weird feelings about running in the wild. The virus is still trying to take me, I thought it would just attack my mind when I fully changed, not now…
"W-Well… I will just fight it off like I did this time, it won't be hard-", before I could even continue Aeon cut in.
"Fight it off? Sora the virus gets stronger all the time! Soon it will be too strong for you to fight off if you keep using up all this energy!", My ears go back as I kept getting scolded by Aeon, I was just protecting my friends, I did what I had to do.
"Aeon… I was doing what I had too, as long as my friends are safe I don't care", my rings start to glow as I started to get annoyed by him.
"So you want to lose your mind and have this virus win only if your friends are safe?", Aeon continued.
"I already told you Aeon. I… don't know what I want yet", I look down to the ground to think more, I don't want the virus to win and change me… sort of, I mean I have others waiting for me for when I do change and others for when I return to normal, it's a hard choice.
"Well listen to me from now on or you'll lose yourself sooner than you would like", Aeon turned his back to me as I frowned at the scolding, "I won't let him win…". Let him win? Let who win, I was going to yell back but I've noticed that Aeon's ears have dropped back and his tail wrapped around him where he sits, something is obviously up besides my problem.
"Aeon?", I comfortably said hiding my anger before and placed my hand onto his shoulder, "What's up?".
He glanced over to me then quickly looked away, "Nothing… just listen to me from now on", is all he said. I know something is up but there's no point in trying to force the information out of him as it won't work.
I sighed and got up, still looking down to him. "Well Aeon, whatever you're hiding it's something that you don't want me to know", I turned around and walked away from where Aeon was, "I'm going to wake up and see my friends and family, I got some things to rethink". I take a quick glance back to him to still find his ears back, he's sad about something… maybe in time he'll tell me. Everything started to get blurry and dark and soon it went silent.
My eyes slowly open to the outside world, the room I'm in is dark. I slowly lift my head and look around, finding Tom sitting on the chair in the corner sleeping. Besides me is Dash and Pulse sleeping together and keeping close to me, I can also feel something on my belly, I look over to see Luna laying half her body on me, sleeping as well. It seems me passing out again worried them, as it should, it wasn't a great experience.
I wanted to get up and think about things, but doing so would wake up Luna, I needed to try though. I slowly lifted myself up and tried to get my paw underneath Luna to move her, I did so quite easily. Moving her to the side and off me gently, I carefully put her down next to Dash and Pulse, at least she will still be sleeping with friends.
I got up from the bed staying quiet as to not wake anyone and made my way to the door, it seems that I'm still in the clothes I was in, then again I wouldn't want them changing me, and with that slightly disturbing thought I made my way to my bag and slowly unzipped it, taking out my journal and zipping it back up, walking to the door and opening it, leaving the room and making my way down the hall.
I made it into the main lobby and looked around, no one was around besides Nurse Joy behind the desk, seeing as it was so silent to begin with she heard me coming and turned to look in my direction, she seemed slightly shocked to see me standing there, but smiled nonetheless.
"Ah, I see you're up", She said smiling like she always does.
"Yeah… I got my fill of sleep. Just needed to do some thinking", I told her, looking to the door leading to the outside world.
"Well you're friends were worried about you when you passed out, they said something about you glowing?", my ear twitched to this and started to think, not much thinking was needed to know what it was, it was what I was doing in my mind, escaping from the virus.
"Yeah… don't worry about it. If they ask where I am tell them I'll be just outside", I told Nurse Joy as I made my way to the door without even waiting for her reply, but I already know what it will be.
"Alright, but not too far", she responded with what I knew she would say, she too was worried for me, but I really should stay close to the center.
"Okay, thank you", I said as I stepped through the doors of the pokemon center and turned the corner. I made my way over to the bench that I sat last time I was here, the same one Tom sat on before I chased after Luna. I sat down on it and stared up to the night sky, stars shining bright and the moon out. I could feel my rings already glowing just at the sight of it, and I know I could just lose myself all night staring at it, but that's not why I'm here, I'm here to think. I shake my head and look down to the ground, focusing on my thoughts.
It's been a long few days, running and hiding… watching death and feeling pain… is this what my life has become? Yes, yes it has. This is what I have to expect now… no changing that. From all the new experiences I've had lately, my thoughts have changed… about everything.
This change that's happening to me, it's not something I should keep fearing, worrying about what's happening to me and when the next change will happen won't get me anywhere. I need to stay focused about my goal, I set out from Pallet to hide from Team Horizon, but that's not happening, so my new goal is to find them and take them down, meeting Clare has shown me that they have hurt many, many people and it needs to stop. I will put an end to them.
I will need help with this goal. I want to ask my friends but I don't want to put them in danger, if they got hurt because of something I wanted to-… need to do, then the guilt will be too much. I know I can't do it alone, I will need information and people that can help. For now I'll just continue on this journey and travel around, learn what I can then go after them.
Team Horizon… Edge… what kind of person is that? Finding enjoyment in other's pain… it's sick… wrong… messed up, he just straight up killed someone for what, to put on a show for me? That's just… and who knows how many more are like him that are with Team Horizon, I need to be careful if I want to go up against them, Edge was a pawfull and I barely got away from him… I need Aeon to train me so I can fight them when the time comes.
Then again, Aeon told me to listen to him, and if I didn't listen to him before I wouldn't be here now. He's in my head but he knows so much more about what's going on but… some things off, he knows TOO much for just a virus created being. I want to ask him what's wrong but privacy is something that we all need, even him. So I will give it to him.
Then there's that other guy, the one that saved me from Edge's deadly blow… Frost is what I think Edge called him. He seemed to be apart of Team Horizon seeing as he was part pokemon but… he saved me. He isn't with them then, maybe Team Rocket? If that's true he wouldn't have let me go either… no… he's someone different, I need to find him and get answers, and thank him from saving me and my friends… friends….
They finally found me, Tom and Tabatha, I'm so relieved to be with them again, to be safe. I wasn't thinking at the time but they were in serious danger back there, they could have gotten hurt or worse… they're the one that keep me going and I always put them in danger. The give me the strength to go on, I won't let them down… I will find an answer to my problem, even if it is an answer that none of us want…
I sat here thinking about these thoughts for a few hours before I finally grabbed my journal and jotted down my thoughts and feelings. Closing the book and staring up to the starry sky. "...Mom… Dad… I know you've been watching…", a tear falls from my face as I struggle to keep the moon from blurring up, "...You don't know how much I need you right now… to help me…", I clenched my hand and use my paw to clear my eyes, "But I know you guys are guiding me, along with my friends. I will show you and everyone that the strength you give me…", I go silent and just sit there staring up for the rest of the night, my rings keeping me warm and the fire in my heart keeping my spirits up… this is just the beginning.
Dear Journal,
My life is only getting busier. People after me with only my friends to help me along the way. I don't mind this, this is the life I'm going to have to get used to, as long as my friends and family are there, I'm happy.
I've learnt that Team Horizon isn't my biggest threat, nor is Team Rocket… it's me. The virus keeps attacking my mind and each time I lose energy it grows more. I almost lost myself but thanks yo Aeon I manage to hold on… it's a scaring thing knowing that the one thing that can hurt you, you can't even fight against.
I've also learnt another thing, the one thing that give me my strength is my friends and family, and it showed itself. To fight off the virus, I needed to remember my friends and family, all their strength they've given me, with that strength I'm sure I learn a new move… Hidden Power, my friends are my hidden power that no one knows about, with the power and light it brings I can fend off the darkness. I fear what will happen if they left…
~ No longer monster, I'm Sora, and I will forever be me.
AN: Well it's has been awhile, and I don't know when the next one will come out, but it WILL come out, trust me. ^^; Again catch up at Deviantart and look forward for feedback!
