Raina woke up. She was in a white room, but didnt know why. Shen then looked to her left. Zed was sleeping in a chair, Umbreon and Leafeon at his feet. She smiled at the idea of her brother staying with her all night. Then, she remembered. Over the past five days she was jabbed with needles and subjected to many inhumane experiments, then woke up filled with some type of power and broke free from her captivity, only to see her brother and the Eeveelutions running towards where she was. She had then passed out at the shock of seeing them. She had woke up in this room a few hours later and found out the truth: Team Rocket, what the men in white called themselves, had somehow turned her into a Pokemon. That Pokemon was a Mewtwo. When Raina asked why she wasn't purple or green, Zed replied that he didn't know the reason, and the grunts that got arrested as a result of her escape from them most likely didn't either. "They are just grunts, not scientists," he had said, "Most likely its because they never planned on human emotions from a six year old girl. They were cruel people to do this to you, Raina, but I will never know their motive." Tears had ran down his cheeks, and Raina saw that he was crying.
A few hours later, Zed woke up. "Do you need anything to eat, Raina?" he asked her.
Careful not to yell this time, Raina replied with "Yes please. do you have any berries?" Zed then complied by handing her Oran and Sitrus berries, saying, "They aren't that bad. Me and Umbreon had to eat just these alone sometimes, and they are pretty good." Raina tried them, and found that she agreed.
After lunch, Raina and Zed were allowed to leave. Leafeon, knowing Raina was her trainer, followed along behind, Umbreon next to her. They got a couple of strange looks, but no one questioned why there was a blue Mewtwo.
Raina finally broke the silence, "Leafeon, are you okay? i saw what Team Rocket did, but are you better now?"
Leafeon replied in her serene voice "I'm okay for now Raina. I should be asking if you are okay."
"I'm fine, Leafeon" Raina replied in a voice natural to an annoyed six year old, hiding a smile before bursting out in laughter.
A few hours later, they decided to rest. Zed had brought up the idea of visiting Professor Elm. After all, it had been a few months since he was last in Twinleaf. Raina had grown up in Kalos, so she wanted to meet the professor too. When they got to Twinleaf though, something felt wrong. It was silent, and the scent of smoke was in the air. The buildings were in major disrepair. Their Johto house was literally torn apart. All the windows in the Lab were broken, and the lights were off. Zed's hometown had become a ghost town.
