Ash's Precious Little Girl - CH XI: ^-^ A New Friend! ^-^
"So…….you are saying that the battle ended up as a draw?" Dawn said, looking confused.
"Yup!" Ash and Homura chirped.
"And you are also saying that the freaky wind we experienced earlier was from a wind storm?" Brock said, looking confused like Dawn.
"Yup!"
"Pika Pi?" Ash's Pikachu asked the pair, eying Ash and Homura suspiciously.
"Of course not. What makes you think we are lying?" Ash answered.
Dawn, Brock, and Pikachu can tell Ash and Homura was hiding something from them. Ever since they woke up from their little strange nap along with Ash explaining to them what happen after they were out old. They have a strange feeling that Ash and Homura was lying to them to cover up something. Something that only Ash and Homura knows about.
However, this little secret between father and daughter won't be staying a secret forever. Dawn decided to do something to force the truth out. "Ash….." The young brunette calls out her crush's name.
"Yeah Dawn? What is…..Aaahhhhh?!"
Without warning, Dawn pounced on top of Ash and started to tickle him. "D….awn…….*laughs*……..Stop it………*laughs*…."
"Not until you tell us the truth, Ash." Dawn giggled, tickling him silly.
The young trainer was being tickled to death by the young brunette. Ash was laughing manly as tears were flowing down his auburn eyes. "……*laughs*…….That…….*laughs*…….was……the……truth…….*laughs*….." Dawn didn't buy that. She continues to tickle him. "Honestly! It's the truth…….."
"Wrong answer, mister." Dawn replied, tickling Ash still.
The laughing teen couldn't take more of this punishment. It was time to turn the table. Ash mustered all the strength he has as he tackled Dawn to the ground and started to tickle her back. "ASH! No……….*laughs*……"
"It's payback time, Dawn." Ash sang, tickling her.
Brock and Pikachu looks on with a smile. It seems those two were getting along well. The breeder turns his head and took notice that the spiky-haired female blonde was in deep thought. "Homura? Is something the matter?"
"…"
Brock frowned. He was hoping for an answer but all he got was a silent treatment. The breeder looks worried. He wanted to know what's going on through Homura's mind. 'What's wrong, Homura? Is there something on your mind?' He pondered. Brock took notice that the little girl's expression shifted to a sad look. He can tell something was bothering her.
Ignoring Brock's worry glance, Homura was busy staring at Ash and Dawn. She had a strange feeling…..no…more like a desire. 'Why can't Mommy and Daddy be like this instead……..'
'We have never once loved you. We only pretended to love you to keep some hope in your life but in reality; your life was nothing more but a lie.' Homura's mother's harsh words echoed through her mind.
'Say your prays, you little demon!' Her father's harsh words echoed through her mind as well.
The little girl's heart aches as tears threaten to fall from her green eyes. Homura quickly shuts her eyes, trying to block all the bad memories going through her mind. 'Stop it.'
'Little monster!'
'Stop it!'
'We never loved you!'
'I said, STOP IT!' Homura grabbed her head. 'I didn't asked to be with these powers……Why can't you accepted that?! MOMMY! DADDY!'
Homura was now trembling with sweat pouring down from her face. Brock, who was eying Homura this whole time, was getting worried. The breeder quickly turned his head to his two friends and called out to them. "Ash! Dawn!"
The two playful teens stopped their tickling war as they turned their attention to Brock. "Yeah Brock? What is it?"
"Guys, there's something bothering Homura." Brock informed, pointing his finger at the young girl.
Ash and Dawn looked at Homura and noticed that she was still grabbing her head with sweats dripping down from her face. They can see tears leaking out from her shut eyes. "Homura!" Ash cried in worry.
The young girl ignored her daddy's call. She was lost in thoughts…..no…more like trapped in her bad memories.
Flashback
"I'm…….so…..rr…..y……Mommy …..*sniff*……Daddy……." Little Homura cried in sorrow, tears flowing down from her eyes. The spiky blonde child stares down at her abusive parents, who were lying on the floor, dead. The two adults had lifeless expression on their faces. They were covered in blood. But they weren't the only one, who was covered with blood.
Homura stood there, crying in tears for her dead parents. Her face and body was covered in blood. Not her blood but her evil parents' blood. The crying girl didn't mean to but what choice did she have. Her parents were trying to kill her so she didn't have a choice but to defend herself. "I'm………sorry……" Homura weeps, falling to her knees. "I…..didn't want this to happen………"
"I didn't ask to born with these…….."
BANG!
Suddenly, the front door busted wide open as several townspeople with weapons in hand rushes inside the home. The hostile group glances around the home and notices two bodies on the ground, covered in blood. They gasped in shock. "WHAT IN THE WORLD?!" A man within the group shouted.
"LOOK!" A female said, pointing her finger shakily at Homura.
The mob turned their attention to where the frightened lady was pointing at. The group gasped in shock. "I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS YOU, DEMON!" A man growled, gripping onto his baseball bat tightly.
Homura shook her head. "I…….I….didn't……mean…t….."
"SHUT UP!" Another man cut her off. "We should have known you would cause us nothing but problems, brat!" He hissed.
"You and that blasted Aura powers!" Another female snapped.
"You are nothing but a danger brat to us and this town." An elderly man growled.
All these harsh words were deeply scarring the poor girl. "No…..please…….I didn't mean to……."
"Mean to what?! KILLED YOUR OWN PARENTS?!" The leader of the pack shouted. Ouch, that hurts. Homura lowered her head and bit her lowered lip. "YOU MONSTER! YOU MUST BE PUNISH!"
That did it. Homura bit her lowered lip until it bleeds. How dare he call her, a monster?! "Who is with me?!" The leader asked. His fellow followers cheered.
With their motive set, the group advanced forward to the blonde girl. But soon, the group halted their march as they stood there with a frighten expression on their faces. They were scared…….no more like frightened to the core. The mob was in disbelief and scared as they saw a black mass of dark aura engulfing the little girl's body. They took a step back.
Homura lifted her head up, revealing a pair of icy, cold snake-like eyes. The piercing glare sends a shiver to the mob's spines. "I try to be nice. I really did and yet it wasn't GOOD ENOUGH, WASN'T IT?!" She shouted venomously at the group.
Suddenly, a strong breeze of gust created by the little blonde's dark Aura blows furiously towards the mob. Several members were sent flying back and collided against the walls while others managed to stand their ground against the strong breeze.
"YOU ALL TREATED ME NOTHING BUT A MONSTER! MAYBE IT IS TIME FOR ALL OF YOU TO FEEL THE WRATH OF A MONSTER THEN!" Homura threatens.
"Y-You…..d-don't scare us……." The leader replied, shaking in his boots.
Dark Homura smirked evilly. "Oh really? It seems your friends think differently."
The leader turned his head to see most of the members were shaking in their boots. "You cowards! What are you fools so afraid of? She's just a child."
"Y-Yes…..b-but you just heard what she just said?" A frightened guy replied.
"So?!" The leader growled. "We have her completely outnumbered."
"Yes, I agreed with the old man. You guys do have me outnumbered." Homura interrupted. "But it doesn't matter; I will make sure all of you will suffer my pain. Once I'm done with you all, the whole town is next."
"YOU MONSTER!"
Dark Homura giggled sadistically. "Why thank you." She mocked. The spiky blonde advanced forwards her prey. Now the mob was starting to freak out.
"LET'S THE FREAK OUT OF HERE!" A panicked man screamed. Most of the members agreed.
"COMEBACK HERE YOU FOOLS!" The leader screamed, seeing all of his followers rushed towards their only exit. But soon, their only exit will be blocked by Homura when a black smoke appeared out of nowhere, blocking the door.
The mob halted the running as Homura emerged out of the mysterious, black smoke. "Going somewhere?" Dark Homura asked in a mocking tone of voice. The possessive girl stepped forward while the mob stepped backwards, afraid.
"I haven't start yet and you all looks like you're going to wet your pants. Don't worry….." The young girl paused, stopping her pace. "I will make your deaths fast and painless."
With that said, the mob bolted or try to run to the other way but it was too late. Homura rushes towards them with a wicked grin on her face.
SLASH!
SPLAT!
Within two minutes, all you can hear was screaming and bloody murder cries. Along with the screams was a wicked laughter, which belongs to Homura. The laughter echoed through the whole killing spree. After awhile, the screams and laughter ended. Homura stood in the middle of room, covered in blood. She glances around to see nothing but dead bodies around her. The dark blonde smirked. "Time to finish the job." She whispered, placing her hand out and opened her palm.
Dark Homura launches a dark, flaming sphere from her hand as it collided against the floor. The impact causes a fire to start up. The spiky blonde lowered her hand down to her side. It seems her work was done for here. The girl quickly vanished before the flaming inferno engulfed the whole house.
Outside the flaming home, Homura was floating in mid-air, glancing at her soon-to-be former home. "It's time to finish my work and make everyone suffer my pain. After all, I am a monster." She replied, shedding a tear but then wiped it away and vanished.
Within one hour, Homura hunted down and massacre every single person in her hometown, who called her a monster. Once everyone was dead, Homura set the entire town up in flames as she stood calmly in the heart of the town. "No….body loves me……that's why they died because they hated me and called me a demon…….a brat…….a…..monster. But not anymore………"
With the deed done, the dark aura around the young blonde vanished. Homura glances around to see lying dead bodies and destruction. "I'm……..alone………all……alone……." She whispered, tears flowing down from her eyes.
Homura spent the whole night, watching her hometown being engulfed by the burning flames.
End Flashback
"N….o……" Homura cried, tears continued to leak out from her closed eyes. "I….don't want to remember this……." The blonde tries to erase all the bad memories from her past but it seems the images within her mind about the past won't let that happen.
"No…….stop……." Homura falls to her knees, still holding her head with both hands.
"Homura!" Ash shouted out her name, dashing towards her.
Suddenly, Homura let go of her head and faints. Her unconscious body slowly titled to the side. Ash can tell that the poor girl's body was going to hit the ground.
However, that wasn't going to happen as a pair of arms caught the unconscious girl before she falls to the ground. "Don't worry, I got ya." The female savior replied to the unconscious blonde.
Ash halted his running and glances at the mysterious young girl, who caught his 'daughter'. The mysterious female was the same girl, who appeared in the last chapter. "Thanks for catching Homura but….who are you?" Ash asked, eying the mysterious girl cautiously.
The purple pony tailed girl turns her attention to Ash and smiled. "No problem and my name is Olivia. Nice to meet you."
"Uh….same here……"
"You're lucky I caught her or else she would have woke up with a major headache." Olivia joked.
Ash chuckled to her joke.
"Hey Ash, whose that?" Dawn asked, running to his side with Brock trailing right behind.
"Oh, hey Dawn. Brock. This here is Olivia." Ash introduced the new girl to his friends.
"Hey!" Olivia chimed.
"Uh….hey……" Dawn replied, waving her hand at the newcomer. Same goes with Brock.
Ash walks to Olivia and bends down to take Homura from her. "Once again, thanks a lot."
"It's no problem at all." The purple pony tailed girl smiled then glances at the unconscious girl. "I hope she's going to be alright." Olivia looks worried.
"I hope so too. But I don't understand why this happen." Ash said, looking confused.
"This could be a hunch but it seems that your little girlfriend didn't feel too well." Olivia teased.
Ash blushed. "W-What?! S-She isn't my girlfriend." Ash stuttered. Olivia looks confused. "S-She's my….."
"She is Ash's daughter." Dawn butts in.
"Huh?" Olivia said, totally looking confused. The girl glances at Ash then at Homura then at Ash again. "But they don't look anything alike and also Ash is too young to be dad."
"Ash is acting as Homura's adopted father." Brock clarified.
Olivia blinked confusedly, still not quite following. "Why?" She asked curiously.
"I-It's complicating." Dawn replied.
"Ah, I see. Well, please explain."
"It's too strange to explain." Brock added.
"I have time. Pleasssssssseeeeeeeeeee!" Olivia begged with puppy-dog eyes.
The trio glances at each other with uncertain looks on their faces. Should they tell their new friend about this? They glances at Olivia, who was still giving them the puppy-eyes look. They sighed in defeat.
"Ok."
"YAY!"
The trio took the time, explaining Olivia about the strange events that happen around them. Once they were finished, Olivia was pleased that she was part of this strangeness. "Well that nice of you to take the role of her father, Ash but it was strange though…….."
"What do you say that, Olivia?"
The purple pony tailed girl shrugged. "I thought Houmra was your girlfriend, Ash because I saw you guys kissed."
"WHAT?!" Dawn and Brock shouted while Ash blushed. Dawn glared angrily at her crush.
"When was this, Ash?" Dawn demanded angrily.
"Dawn, it wasn't what it look like." Ash said, trying to reason with the jealousy coordinator.
"That's what they all said, eh Ashy-boy?" Olivia teased. Ash glared at her.
"Don't give her any ideas, Olivia." Ash growled. Olivia merely shrugged.
"I was just helping you."
"Well, stop it. It was just a misunderstanding." Ash replied.
"About what? The kiss or about the part you are trying to lie your way out." Olivia teased again.
"OLIVIA!"
"ASH!" Dawn hissed, glaring at Ash.
Olivia laughed.
Brock sweat dropped. Brock has a feeling that this new friend was a strange and yet an interesting person. What will her role be within the group?
Phew! Finally done! Sorry for the long delay. I could have updated this sooner if my lame-o older brother stops hogging the computer. Anyways, Olivia belongs to Hoots Writes. I hope you guys like her character. Did you enjoy reading more about Homura's past? Quite interesting, is it? Please Review and Comment on this chapter. Peace Out ^_^
