(Sorry for not posting much. Leafa is a mega sceptile by the way.)
Chapter 4
3 years later~
"Brendan!?" I yelled into our tree home.
"Yes?" I heard him say as he walked out of his room.
"I didn't know where you were." I told him worriedly.
"I was just in my room." He told me.
"You sure?" I asked him suspiciously, he liked to sneak out when I wasn't looking.
"Yes, what do you expect me to do if I did sneak out?" He asked me.
"I don't know, something you're not supposed to do." I told him with a grin.
He sighed and walked past me to lay down on the bench he usually did.
"You know I'm just messing with you right?" I asked him.
"Yeah." He told me.
"You never told me how you are a mega sceptile yet you don't have a mega stone." He told me quietly, trying to divert the situation.
"I can show you." I told him nervously.
"How?" He asked me.
"The place where I was made this way." I told him.
"Follow me." I told him as I climbed out the window and down the giant tree's trunk.
I was finally going to show him after all this time, he needed to know and I needed to get it off my chest. Back to that wretched lab, we hoped from tree to tree as we headed in the direction in which I knew it was. We past up a cliffside, a forest, and a meadow, each of them looking like a war was waged there.
"What happened here?" I asked myself as I passed by them.
"Looks like a battlefield." Brendan said as he landed on the ground and we walked for a bit.
"What exactly are we looking for?" He asked me.
"A building." I told him nonspecifically.
We had finally arrived at the lab, much to my surprise, it was in shambles. The roof had collapsed in on itself and some of the walls had giant holes blown out of them.
"What is this place?" Brendan asked me curiously.
"This is where I was made like this, I was an experiment, they infused a mega stone inside my body. I'm permanently mega evolved, this also explains how I was able to speak like you." I told him sadly.
"How!?" He asked.
"The mega stone is inside my body and never able to come out, I'm stuck this way." I told him sadly.
"I'm a monster." I said quietly.
"You're not a monster!" He yelled at me, catching me by surprise.
"Leafa, there is no way you're a monster! A monster is cold hearted, you're the nicest Pokemon I've ever met!" He said as he grabbed my shoulders and looked me in the eyes.
"Look at me! I can't go back to being normal ever, I'm disgusting! No one will want to be with me." I spit out sadly.
"Leafa, you're beautiful just like that and I already know someone who wants to be with you." He told me.
"Who?" I asked curiously with a snivel.
"Me." He said as he gently hugged me, making me feel a bit better knowing that he had called me beautiful.
"Let's go home." He told me as he let go of me.
"Yeah." I said as I cheered myself up and we began to bound back home.
As we bounded past some trees, I caught sight of a home, it was quite far away from the lab but still. I stopped and looked to see if it was abandoned, I was blown away when I saw the same zoroark that saved me that day.
"Is it really her?" I asked myself shockingly.
She sat beside a man and they had three Zoruas with them, two of them wrestled happily while one Zorua sat in the man's lap.
"I need to know." I told myself as I jumped down and cautiously approached them.
"I can hear you, come out." I heard her say.
"I don't mean any harm." I said cautiously as I walked out the brush, the three zorua dashes behind the man.
"Are you the same zoroark? That same one who broke into the lab and released megas like me?" I asked her.
"I am her, are you the mega sceptile?" She asked me, I nodded and she seemed to calm down a bit.
"You probably haven't met Rick, he was the one who got the mission to do it." She said as she pointed towards the man.
He waved at me and he tried to get the three zoruas from hiding from behind him but he couldn't.
"How were you able to hear me?" I asked curiously.
"A mother is always on guard when her children are playing." She said proudly, the man gave out a small scoff and the zoruas snickered.
"So the Zoruas are her kits." I realized.
"Who's your mate?" I asked her weirdly.
She merely pointed to the man and he shrugged casually as he laid back in the grass and the zoruas jumped on his chest and laid down. I was kind of surprised, I didn't think it was possible until now.
"That's the expression we get a lot." She said sadly.
"Oh no, I don't think there is anything wrong with it! I was just surprised is all." I told her quickly.
The three little zoruas had fallen asleep on the man's chest, he just laid back and let them sleep. She eyed them with a happy smile and turned back to me.
"I've got to get going! It's nice meeting you!" I said as I quickly bounded off, waving at them.
"Brendan will be surprised when I tell... Brendan!" I said to myself, realizing I had left him, he must of kept going and not realized I wasn't following.
I quickly bounded through the forest and up the giant tree until I was at our home.
"Brendan? Brendan!?" I yelled inside, hoping for an answer.
It was still fairly early and he might have gone to the lake, I jumped out the window and climbed down the tree side until I was at the ground.
I walked towards the lake until something on the ground caught my eye, it was a liquid but it was a silvery red color, fear took over me when I realized what it was.
"Oh no."
