Chapter 31-To Venture Out
The next morning came. It was early, about 7:00 AM. Lucario and his friends were standing outside the house. They possessed bags containing only the necessities—high-energy food, fruit, herbs, and their medicine pouches. Lucario packed his machine gun as a backup weapon in case his Aura would be useless at a time of danger. Lilly stood out on the porch to watch her husband give is pep talk to his band of criminals.
Lucario: It is early in the morning. You're probably very tired. That does not matter. We are about to face the challenge of a lifetime. We will destroy our oppression and we will rejoice in our God-given freedom. By the way, we do not currently face speech repression at this moment in Mewuskovia. Thanks to our outrage of earlier this week, the secret police were either chased out or destroyed, so we can curse Mewtwo all we want to—for now. But don't rejoice yet. We still face Mewtwo's wrath. But in just days, we shall spit upon his face! ARE YOU WITH ME!
Absol: Who will watch the village?
Lucario: Our undercover village priest.
Absol: Okay.
Narrator: Everyone surrounding Lucario reveled—all except Lilly. She grabbed her husband.
Lilly: Lucario! Let me come!
Lucario: It's too dangerous out there!
Lilly: Let me come!
Lucario: You will be killed out here! Stay safe and stay home!
Lilly: I will not stand for this! I'm coming!
Lucario: (rolls eyes and sighs reluctantly) Fine. You shall come. Be on guard, though, for what Mewtwo wants for you is perhaps the worst fate you could ever encounter. Stay will me and you'll be safe.
Narrator: Lucario and Lilly sealed their love with a kiss. It was then Lucario led his group out of the village to begin their cursade against Mewtwo. It is prayed that the Lord gives them the strength to liberate their people for good.
