~All thoughts are in Concordia's P.O.V~
"Girls! I am very ashamed of you!"
"Ehhh?! All we did was let N out! Is he supposed to be trapped in a room his whole life?"
"Concordia, I told you before that you had alot of maturity, but that does NOT give you the authority to talk to me that way!"
"Why can't N leave? It's his life, and he's the king, isn't he?"
"No, not yet. And-"
N interrupted him before anything else.
"Daddy, why can't I go outside my room?"
"Well..." Ghetsis sighed. "How do I explain this... The world is full of danger. Trainers treat their crap better than they treat their Pokemon! They try to hurt Pokemon! It's just terrible, and to let you into a world like this at such a young age..."
"I don't agree, Father, I don't agree. Earlier, in the forest, an Aipom tried to hurt me. He tried to catch me on fire and burn me alive. If humans are so bad to Pokemon, wouldn't you think that, perhaps, it is because Pokemon are mean to humans, sometimes? Pokemon are our friends, after all. I can't imagine Pokemon being treated badly by humans, unless they were bad first..." N returned. "And, even if a Pokemon was trying to kill you, would you hurt it or forgive it?"
Ghetsis was shocked at the innocence and purity of the young child. "I wouldn't... Hurt it..." he replied. "However, don't you think it is merely because Pokemon are tired of humans? They want to kill the human race, because... the human race is full of evil! Nobody can understand the language of Pokemon, and that's why there is so much conflict, do you not understand? And the people's hearts...No purity, no innocence. But you, son, you have the purity and innocence a king shoud have..."
"Father, do we not all speak the language of Pokemon? I can, Anthea can, Concordia can, so why can't you?"
Ghetsis stared at N. He thought in depth about what he had come back with. "N... normal people... don't speak the language of Pokemon..." and that happened to be when Angie walked by.
"Lord Ghetsis! The young children here can understand exactly what Pokemon are saying! It's amazing!" she exclaimed, thinking of her broken phone case.
"Is that so?"
"I'd like to add something!" said Anthea. "It's that... Pokemon like humans! Very much! I haven't met one who hasn't!".
N and Anthea are right... and we can't just believe what this guy has to say... even if he is our father, we can't let him put lies into our minds.
"Father! If Pokemon are seperated from humans, Pokemon would be very unhappy, don't you think?" Concordia added. "And humans would too. Humans and Pokemon are like comfiness on beds. If humans leave their Pokemon, it is as if the bed becomes as hard as a rock!"
Ghetsis looked at the three children, confronting him. "You guys... are..."
Holy Snap! We actually changed his mind!
"Grounded!"
"What?!" they all screamed.
"N, go to your room, Anthea and Concordia, you too."
"But, Dad!"
"If you don't want to agree with what I say, go ahead. But to confront me like that, when I am trying to tell you stuff you must know, is not to be tolerated!"
"Father." said Concordia. "Please, do not trap N in his room again. He's been trapped in there way too long... after all, it was all my fault, anyway... for telling N... he could leave... Anthea... tried to stop me... it shouldn't be her fault either..."
"I don't care as much as about the room than I care about the disagreement." Ghetsis snapped.
"Well, let me take their punishments, please! I'll stay in for a week, if I have to!"
"Very well, Concordia... If that's your wish. You're to be grounded for a week."
Taking Anthea and N's punishment... I did it for one reason, and one reason only. And that reason, is because, N can't teleport, and Anthea hasn't mastered it yet. Maybe, if I were to see the outside world, and get some more Pokemon for N to play with...
(To the tune of Legacy by Nicki Romero)
What a glorious day
More time to play
I wouldn't want to be
anywhere else
But this place that I call home
When we all fall down to Ghetsis's plans
I won't back down at all
Of course I wouldn't ever bow
Believe a word he says!
"Err, umm, Anthea, you realize Ghetsis is still here, right?"
"Oh yeah, right." says Anthea, staring at the discontent Ghetsis. "Is it almost lunch?"
"Yes, sure, go eat your lunch in the park. Or something."
~All thoughts are in N's P.O.V~
"Okay, bye, Daddy!"
"N, I'm not mad at you for your ignorance..."
Yes, Dad, I'M the ignorant one...
"However, as the king of Team Plasma, you need to understand, that, Pokemon aren't meant to be with humans. Maybe your sisters don't agree, but don't listen to them. Trainers are really mean to their Pokemon."
But, how would I know anyway? Dad is much older than me, anyway...
"I wouldn't lie to you, son. All trainers do, is trap Pokemon into cages, only to let them out during a battle! They get hurt, they get healed, they get trapped, they get hurt, they get healed, they get trapped, it's a cycle! Only few of trainers even care enough about their Pokemon to be nice to them!"
If he is right, then, this madness must be stopped!
"What do you say, son? Do you want to help us? Or not?"
