The Disclaimer of ZANINESS: I am sorry if this took a long time to update, but I broke my middle finger. It's hard to type, but I can do this! Pokemon doesn't belong to me, but Terra, Ackers, Gengar, Vines, Rai, Sailor and Fearful do, Gengar the character, by the way.
Episode 17: Mewtwo's Medicine
It really is a long story how Mewtwo started taking medicine. But I must explain it to you. We need to learn how this happened. It's important and advances the many subplots and the main plot.
It all started one day when Ackers went to go talk to Mewtwo for some reason. Maybe just to have brotherly chat. When I say 'brotherly chat' I mean Ackers talks, Mewtwo listens and adds comments, silence until Ackers thinks of something to say,
Well, one day, at one of those awkwardly silent moments Mewtwo just wanted Ackers to say something. Anything. Even if it didn't make sense, so long as it was sound. When Ackers remained silent, Mewtwo tried to mentally make his brother say something. That failed, too. Soon, Mewtwo's head was spinning. The silence was driving him crazy! If he didn't do something, he would lose his mind! But he couldn't think of anything besides what he did.
He screamed and attacked Ackers.
Ackers slammed into the wall, hitting his head. If it were a cartoon, there would be little birdies flying around his head. He looked up to see Mewtwo flying at him for another attack. I'm gonna go to Gameboy mode for a bit, okay? Hit the music!
((cue gym leader battle music from Pokemon Red, and that doesn't belong to me!))

At that moment, Terra ran in. Seeing Ackers and Mewtwo trying to kill each other surprised her. So you know what she did? She whipped out a tranquilizer gun, shot Mewtwo, and called back Ackers.
Enemy MEWTWO fainted!
Terra gained 9999 EXP.!
Terra scratched her head as she waited on the island for Mewtwo to wake up. It had been a few hours since then and she was hungry. Just as she was about to leave, Mewtwo slowly got up.
"Ugh… my head… what happened?" Mewtwo asked.
"I was going to ask you that." Terra responded curtly.
"I do not remember what happened. … do you remember what happened?"
"If I knew what happened, I probably wouldn't be asking you what happened."
"That makes sense. Does Ackers remember what happened?"
"You ask him what happened yourself. Go, Ackers." Terra sent out Ackers. He blinked, looked around, and saw Mewtwo.
"… you are SO DEAD!" Ackers screamed, ramming into Mewtwo. Well, he tried. Mewtwo stopped him dead in his tracks.
"What happened? What did I do to get tackled for?"
Ackers growled. "You slammed me into a wall and tried to kill me!"
"… I did?"
"Uh, yeah!"
"… and why don't I remember any of this?"
Ackers gaped. "How can you—"
Terra cut him off. "What do you remember?"
Mewtwo thought for a minute. "Sitting and talking with Ackers. I suddenly wanted him to say something. Anything. It was weird."
Terra blinked, then walked over to a phone. She called a doctor and told him what happened, replacing "Mewtwo" with "myself" or things along those lines and replacing "Ackers" with "my friend". After a while, she hung up, recalled Ackers, and flew away.
Mewtwo must have dozed off, because when he woke up, Terra had some medicine. "Here, Mewtwo. Take one pill every morning and one pill before you go to sleep. Don't forget to take your medicine every day. Okay?"
"… okay…"
And that's why Mewtwo takes medicine. But that's only half of it!
One day, Mewtwo and Ackers were outside, catching and throwing a Shadow Ball. Don't ask. They were being absolutely silent. Suddenly, Mewtwo wanted Ackers to say anything. He was silent. He tried making him say something. That didn't work. So when he caught the shadow ball, he threw it so hard at Ackers that it hit his side.
Ackers blinked. He looked at Mewtwo, who looked like he was going to kill something!
"Mewtwo… did you take your medicine?" Ackers asked. Surprisingly, Mewtwo stopped mid-lunge, and shook his head. Ackers flew into the building, grabbed a pill and some water, and floated back out. "Come here, Mewtwo, and take your meds." Mewtwo vehemently shook his head and floated away. Ackers floated after him. When he caught up, he tried prying Mewtwo's jaws open. That didn't work. Ackers thought for a bit, then grabbed that second neck thing that Mewtwos have. Mewtwo squeaked and opened his mouth. Ackers then jammed the pill in and forced him to take a sip of water. After the long ordeal, Mewtwo was coughing a lot.
"What are you trying to do, KILL ME?" Mewtwo asked, still coughing.
"No," Ackers replied, "I'm trying to keep YOU from killing ME."
