Okay here in this chapter is important information. Also you'll see Jason when he's actually terrified. Why of a gun, well that's info gained only from thinking about it. Jason isn't afraid of them, but...yeah. Again I apologize for that long wait before an update.

Someone asked me how did Jason survive being shot in the eye, the bullet came from behind him and when it shattered his Protect it knicked his eye causing serious but not permanent damage. Don't worry, he'll be fine...for now. Also don't forget that he isn't a normal Treecko and being shot in the eye could be no problem to him, not that he knows.

I have added a homepage to my profile. Check it whenever you get the chance.

That's all for now, enjoy.

Chapter 22: You again?

I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die! My eye was bleeding badly. The pain was more terrifying than it was agonizing.

"Jason calm down!"

I'm gonna die! Why won't anyone help me?

"Stop thinking that! You're not going to die!"

Leave me alone! I don't want to die! Please someone help...

"You're not going to die! I'll make sure you won't!"

Go away! Leave me alone! Now there are voices in my head. Am I really going to die?

"Jason!" I won't let them kill me...I won't die!

Using every bit of energy I had, I Leaf Storm. The most powerful one I've ever used before. Boosted by Overgrow and the power obtained from Mew. There were screams from all around me. The pavement was torn from the ground. Anything nearby was thrown in random directions. But the voices never stopped.

"LEAVE ME ALONE!!"

I ran off in a random direction, blinded from what ever hit my eye, pain, and fear.

"JASON!"

I don't know who it was that yelled my name and I don't care. If I want to live I have to run and keep on going. My vision was impaired but I could see enough to know what was in front of me.

"Jason stop running, I can help!" It was one of the voices that was after me.

I pushed myself to run as fast as I could. Blurred walls rushing past, the forest just ahead. Just as I made it into the forest I crashed into and broke something. What ever it was didn't stop me at all. Speeding through the woods, swerving past and between trees at an alarming rate. I ran until I was out of breath and absolutely out of energy. I kept pushing myself to go farther, to get away. I tripped and hit the ground hard. With no energy left I couldn't get back up. There was a rustle in the bushes. Something came out, a white blur. My heart now pounding faster than ever.

"Well well well. What do we have here? A Treecko trespassing on our territory?" What ever it was, I didn't care. I needed to get away, fast. Mustering up all of my energy, I fought to push myself up. All that running drained me completely. Could only sit there and watch in complete terror as the blurred being walked up to me. It stopped in front of me and lifted me off the ground to eye level.

"Do you know what happens to little Treeckos who trespass?" My eyes were swelling with tears, the right one felt like it had just been dumped into something molten as it was the one bleeding. Tears streamed down my face as I stared the thing in the eyes. There was a faint red over it's left eye and ear. Its arm cocked back.

"NO!" Something big and green slammed into the white blur causing it to drop me. After I hit the ground, I couldn't move. Just laying there, watching a green blur and a white and red blur fight.

So tired...getting sleepy. I fought to stay away for as long as I could, but everything faded.

"Wh...What happened? Oh no not here again." Back in that black area that I was in before I learned Leaf Storm.

"Ah you're back." Not him again.

"I don't have time to deal with you!"

"Ah but you do. You see, when you come here your body goes into a hibernating, healing state. When you wake up you'll be fully recovered."

"Cut the bullshit. Why am I here then?"

"Same reason as last time."

"If it's a fight you want then fine by me." I prepared for battle while he only shook his head.

"The fight was to teach you Leaf Storm which you now know. The true reason you were here last time was for what I told you."

"You mean that 'You can't beat me without dreams' crap?" Still didn't make sense. If he's me then why am I being so complicated?

"Exactly."

"I proved to you that I didn't need them. I'll do it again if I have to."

"Fighting won't prove anything."

"Then what the hell am I supposed to do, guess what you mean by that?" I asked. He nodded yes. This is going to be long and boring.

About three hours later, or what felt like three hours, I finally broke him.

"HOW CAN YOU BE THIS RETARDED?!" He yelled.

"Well if you weren't so damn complicated about it then I would have gotten it right by now! Why don't you cut the bullshit and just tell me?"

"WHY DON'T YOU THINK ABOUT IT!" Truth be told, I never actually thought about it.

"Dreams...what you experience when you go to sleep. Your future plans...your goals..."

"And to reach your goals you must have?"

"Confidence?"

"YES! FINALLY YOU GOT IT!"

"Wait...are you calling me depressed?"

"And the idiot finally realizes."

"I'm not fucking depressed."

"Then tell me, when have you ever stated a strong point to yourself?" He got me there. "Have you ever thought once, that you could accomplish rather than knowing from the start that you could or not? When it all comes down to luck, do you try your hardest, or do you push yourself and believe you can? What about,"

"I get it! I'm depressed, so what?" I interrupted.

"Confidence could be the little push you need to win a fight. Without it, you're that much closer to losing and possibly dieing."

"That's nice to learn a fact I already know."

"Well now that you know." He took a stance. "Come on."

"I thought we weren't going to fight."

"How else are you supposed to pass the time? Or would you rather walk around nothing for the next however many hours?" He was right. Walking around nothing won't pass time like a good fight will.

"Alright then. No changing types though."

"Fine by me. Let's go!"

And with that we both charged at each other. Energyball in hand ready to fire. I wonder when I'll wake up.

Originally this chapter was going to be about twice as long, but I decided to cut the next part out and put it in the next chapter.

Yep Jason finds out he's depressed. Doesn't affect him much, but his thoughts will change slightly.
