La Belle
Chapter 1
" Ready…Set…"
Sweat steadily dripped down Mewtwo's forehead. His purple eyes were focused upon his competitor standing on the other side of the stage. The short blonde hair elf gripped tightly to his sword. He was slightly jumping, moving his feet to keep his body going. Determination filled his soft cobalt eyes. He donned his green hat, with matching green tunic. His appearance was slightly similar to his older counterpart.
" Go!"
Mewtwo was the first to react quickly to the announcer. He glided across the stage of Termina, over toward the young elf who was running in his direction. Young Link swung his sword in, causing Mewtwo throw in quick punches and kicks, managing to knock Young Link down with purple smoke surrounding him.
Young Link had quickly gotten back into the battle, using his bow and arrow to hit Mewtwo in the chest. Mewtwo fell back to the ground causing pain to erupt in his back. He recovered quickly, and dodged Young Link's sword swung. He kicked Young Link back toward the large turtle.
"Are you nervous about this fight?" Bowser questioned.
Mewtwo laughed. "Not at all. I can handle little Young Link."
Young Link grunted as he landed on the turtle. He rolled back almost slipping off into the water but jumped using the red balloon for support. He jumped back onto the gray ledge and continued to fight Mewtwo charging at him with full strength. Mewtwo managed to grab Young Link and throw him off the stage. Young Link screamed as he landed in to the water.
Mewtwo chuckled, as he glided back and forth waiting for the young elf to reappear. Young Link fell from above and held his sword down landing on top of Mewtwo. Mewtwo grunted as he flew back toward the turtle, landing hard on the shell. Young Link ran over toward Mewtwo just as he recovered from the blow. The turtle lifted its head, and began to sink underwater.
Mewtwo jumped hoping to land on the ledge, but Young Link let out a scream as he jumped and hit Mewtwo with a power strike, knocking Mewtwo back into the water. Young Link landed on the gray ledge, and swiftly took out a bottle of Lon Lon Milk, drinking it on the stage.
"You have to be careful of those small ones." Bowser stated. "I've fought Mario many times, and I can tell you that they are quite nimble."
"You don't need to worry about me, Bowser." Mewtwo replied crossing his arms. I can handle it."
Mewtwo shook off the water that stuck to him and jumped back down onto the stage. Young Link leaped up to the platform and charged at Mewtwo once more. Mewtwo took a deep breath as he and Young Link exchanged blows and countered each other's attacks.
Determination and rage built up inside of Mewtwo. He couldn't lose against Young Link. He knew it inside, that he wasn't going to let a ten year old beat him. Everyone would believe Mewtwo was just some tough looking Pokemon, when he is really weak and helpless. He couldn't go around carrying that reputation.
Mewtwo felt his lead slip as Young Link began beating him with numerous attacks. Mewtwo managed to lay a couple on the Young Link, but like Bowser had told him before the battle the small ones are nimble. Mewtwo couldn't deny Bowser's words. He now had a reason to be anxious.
Young Link had brought Mewtwo to the edge of the stage and continued to hit him with numerous attacks. Mewtwo dodged most of them, but found himself on the moving ledge below, dangerously close to the water. Mewtwo gathered up strength and used a power attack, knocking Young Link off the ledge.
Young Link landed in the water but spun around quickly using his sword lifting him right out of the water. He hit Mewtwo across the face with the last few spins causing the Pokemon to fall back off the ledge. Mewtwo panicked, trying to get back up but failed and continued to fall deeper under water.
Before had he reached the portal, to bring him back to the top, the announcer's voice was faintly heard.
"Game!"
Mewtwo closed his eyes as he felt himself get sent into the portal. Once he opened them, he found himself standing in the mansions tournament room. He and Young Link were both standing on the portals, back to the real world.
The portals shut off, and Mewtwo glided out to the middle of the room. He looked up at the scores hanging from the ceiling and frowned. His eyes averted to the young elf, who was dancing around rejoicing for his victory. Without any words, Mewtwo glided out of the room.
Bowser greeted Mewtwo in the hallway, who watched the battle from the next room. He laughed, mainly at the Pokemon from losing against Young Link. Bowser patted Mewtwo's back, comforting his friend.
"You laugh at me, and then you try to cheer me up," Mewtwo explained. He stopped and faced Bowser. "What's wrong with you?"
"I told you to be careful," Bowser commented. "But you didn't listen."
"I almost had that little brat too," Mewtwo complained.
He sighed deeply heading further down the hallway. At the end of the long narrow hallway was a window up against the wall. The blinds were open, revealing the rain pounding violently against the window. Thunder was heard booming in the distance, with the occasional flash of lightning lighting up the darkened hallway.
"You will eventually get over it," Bowser stated. "It was only one battle Mewtwo."
Mewtwo nodded and pushed Bowser away from him. "I know."
He continued down the hallway, even after noticing Bowser had stopped. Mewtwo turned and walked passed the stairway leading to the second floor. He passed the library where Pichu, the Ice Climbers and Ness sat talking. He continued across the mansion and stopped in front of the sliding glass door. He looked outside as the rain continuously fell from the sky, and opened the door stepping out of the mansion.
Mewtwo closed his eyes as he felt the heavy rain greet his face. He tried to get his mind away from his battle. He did the best he could during the fight, but obviously it wasn't good enough. Young Link had gotten lucky this time around. Mewtwo knew he wasn't going to lose again.
The door behind Mewtwo suddenly closed, causing the Pokemon to jump startled. He abruptly swung around and grabbed the doorknob trying to open the door. He tugged at it, but the door wouldn't bug. Mewtwo felt his heart race, as he felt an unwanted presence behind him. He took a deep breath and turned around only to be greeted by the end of a weapon that knocked the Pokemon unconsciousness.
Mewtwo groaned as he steadily opened his heavy eyes. He looked around and noticed he was staring up at the dark blackened sky. The rain continuously fell on his face, causing the Pokemon to look away. He tried to move his arms, but found that they were tied to his sides. Thick brown ropes were wrapped around his body and legs, keeping him from getting out of the box that he was lying in.
The mysterious Pokemon raised an eyebrow trying to figure out what he was lying in. Thunder cracked violently across the sky as Mewtwo felt his heart jump with the thunder. By the shape of the box, Mewtwo finally came to dreading conclusion. His life was going to end.
He was lying in a casket.
"Help!" Mewtwo cried. "Help!" His voice was barely heard over the thunder.
A figure soon appeared next to the casket. Mewtwo tried to catch a glimpse of who the culprit was who put him in this early funeral. It was hard for Mewtwo to identify the figure; in fact, with the darkness surrounding them, seeing anything was impossible.
"Let me out of here!"
"Good-bye…Mewtwo…" The figure spoke. "The battle isn't going to be the only thing you lost today."
Mewtwo's eyes widened as he recognized the voice. Once a jagged bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, the figure's identity was clearly seen for a few seconds. Mewtwo gasped, about to speak, but the figure hunched over him taping his mouth.
Mewtwo tried to scream, but his voice was muffed. He listened to the figure's laugh, watching as the casket was closing. Mewtwo felt the darkness taking over as the light was slowly diminishing.
The battle isn't going to be the only thing you lost today…
His life was next…
Mewtwo's screaming had stopped as he felt his muscles relax. The darkness overtook him, as he basically gave up hope.
The casket had closed.
