Chapter 3:
Touko was on a roll. She was defeating all the other trainers without a sweat. From time to time she would also defeat Team Plasma members that would jump at her, trying to steal her pokémon away from her.
Touko did not like fighting Team Plasma members. It reminded her to much of N and the more she thought of N, the more she liked him. She would turn beat red and feel hot. The feeling felt weird to her, she never had feelings for a guy like that before. She liked Touya, but not like this.
…
Touko was traveling all along Unova. She wanted to spend time with her pokémon more before she fought the Elite 4.
Touko and her pokémon were sitting around afire in the woods. She wanted them to relax out in the open. Some of the things that N had said were getting to her. She didn't want to believe that she was keeping her pokémon as pets. When she had time, she let them out and let them wonder around.
Touko was staring at the fire that was placed in front of her. She had gotten the wood and started the fire herself. It made her feel good that she was letting her pokémon relax while being out of their poke balls.
She started to think about N again, the way he looked… she started to go red.
'I can't think about him that way! I need to win our final battle. I can't let my pokémon free. They are my friends, my family.'
Grass was rustling behind her. Touko started to sit up, ready to fight when she realized that she let her pokémon wonder.
'It's probably just Victini. He loves to tackle me.'
Touko relaxed again, waiting for her little furry friends to tackle her.
"You shouldn't relax at night. You never know what is going to happen."
Touko jumped up and turned around. Her pokémon sensed her fear, the 6 of them jumped in front of her, ready to attack the intruder.
There was a tall man in the shadows. He sounded like N, but a lot more mature.
"Who are you!?" She yelled at the stranger.
A man walked forward slowly.
"You know who I am."
The man finally stepped into the light of the fire, Touko defiantly knew who he was. It was Ghetsis, the head of the Seven Sages of Team Plasma. He was also N's father. Everyone knew who Ghetsis was, he first showed himself to the public while she was in Accumula Town.
"Why are you here?" She asked, with fear in her voice.
'How did he find me?'
Ghetsis had a relaxed look on his face. He walked closer to her and her pokémon. All of her pokémon's hair stood up, ready to attack in a mille second.
"N grew up without a mother. He had the 2 Goddesses look after him, Anthea and Concordia, they taught him everything that he knows, and I also taught him everything that he knows. His only friends were pokémon that I would bring to him, ones that were injured by their previous owners. Team Plasma believes that keeping pokémon as pets are evil, therefore you are evil."
He glared at Touko at the last sentence.
"Ever since N has seen you, his mind has been clouded. He plans his meetings around where you are going to be. Which is hard, he never knows where you are going to be. That is why you have to fight Team Plasma members, they are spies. N orders all our members to look out for you. You have corrupted his mind."
Ghetsis threw a bottle at the ground. Smoke started to fill the air. Touko looked at her friends, her pokémon had fallen to the ground. Touko ran to her Emboar, he was still breathing, a relaxed breathing. He had fallen asleep. They all had fallen asleep.
She smelt the air, it smelt like roses.
"What did you do?" She asked while petting Emboar.
"We have been working on a few things at our lab. That was one of our more recent completions. We had taken a sleeping attack from Munna and enhanced it into smoke."
"You killed a Munna just so you can get to its attack special?!"
"We do what we have to do. We want to win, no, we are going to win! N, of course, does not know anything about this and he never will."
Ghetsis was walking closer to Touko. She had stood up straight and stood her ground.
He was now face to face with her.
"You have been the face of the rebellion, ever sense you said you would personally fight N. Do not move any further in this fight. You will not win, no matter what you do. Go home, go be with your mom. She probably misses you."
There was silence. Touko trying to find the courage to say something and Ghetsis was smirking with the victory he just won.
"I will not back down. Your group of losers are murdering innocent pokémon for experiments. I will stay the face of rebellion, I will win this fight and there is nothing you can do that will stop me."
The smirk on Ghetsis face was gone, there was now one on Touko's face.
"You should not talk back to me, girl. I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you. Your friends are roaming around by themselves, they aren't as strong as you are. Cheren and Touya are pretty strong but Belle isn't as strong. She is the weakest of all your friends."
Touko's face went white. Her friends meant everything to her. They were always there for her when she was little and she wanted to be there for them now.
"That Touya boy, you two have been close, closer than the other two. It would be a sad thing if something would happen to him."
He said while grabbing her arm and squeezing it. Her arm started to burn.
"Think before you act."
He let go of her and walked off into the forest and disappeared.
Touko looked at her arm, there was a red hand print on her arm and there was a burned hand print. She looked up to see if she could still see him but he was gone. She heard a whimper, she looked at the ground and saw her sleeping pokémon.
Touko ran to her backpack and grabbed awakenings. She poured each antidote into her pokémon's mouths. They each got up and followed her. They all had worried looks on their faces. Touko gave each of them a smile, reassuring them that she was fine. She laid down near the fire. They all had surrounded her, giving her the comfort she needed.
"Touya…" She whispered while grabbing her wound the Ghetsis gave her.
She silently cried until she fell asleep.
Mmm some crazy things are happening here.
