Chapter Fifteen: Red

It was very nice of Green to let me stay at his for the night. He didn't think I was fit enough to go back to the Pokemon Centre and mentioned about grabbing my rucksack from work in the morning for me.

So, after Blue left to go home I was allowed to lie down in silence in Green's bedroom, giving me enough time to think of something, anything.

I needed a way to get back at Cyan, to do something about him trying to take Gold away from me.

Sneasel lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling in thought as a blanket of darkness shrouded the room.

It must have been midnight and there was no way I could sleep right now, so having some company didn't seem that bad right now. And that was where Sneasel helped. I could just vent, and tell her everything and she would just sit and listen. She was always there for me, and the only thing that was probably constant in my life right now.

Sighing deeply I shuffled amongst the bed covers, feeling very hot right now.

"...what should I do Sneasel? Should I go back to Johto and fight him? Or should I let him win?"

I watched as the ice type sat up and stared at me through worried eyes.

Then she shook her head and folded her clawed limbs.

"Sneeee!" She protested, obviously thinking that we should fight him instead of giving up.

But... if Gold had sided with him what was worth fighting for?

I placed my hands behind my head as my eyes stared at the ceiling in thought. As usual she was right, we had to fight this... there was no way I was going to be a sitting duck.

"Yeah... you're right, but if I don't go back soon it might be too late. I need to get back to Johto, and soon..."

It was annoying me to death, why did I even do any of this? Why did I break Gold's heart in the first place?! I should have been stubborn as usual and just tried to make things work, but no, instead I broke off the entire relationship.

Sneasel shuffled over to me and settled beside me in the bed. Resting her head against my shoulder I heard her inhale deeply, like she was sighing.

I wondered if she could feel my pain?

"...okay... tomorrow... I will go back to Johto tomorrow and no-one is going to stop me"

Turning over so I was facing my ice type I felt her nestle in my arms as she prepared to sleep. I watched her for a while before I started to feel drowsy and somehow managed to end up dosing off.

I woke up to the sound of crying, and the noise echoed throughout the emptiness. Cautiously I scanned my surroundings discovering that this time I was being blinded by a bright light that seemed to reflect off the white walls that surrounded me.

Was this a dream again? But still... who was crying?

I stood up straight and once again tried to find the source of the noise, but I just couldn't see anything.

Maybe it was all in my head, or just a figment of my imagination?

Then the white walls morphed into the old familiar scene of my bedroom when I was a kid. It looked exactly the same, the same wallpaper, the same curtains... and as I looked towards my bed I noticed a younger version of myself lying face down, crying loudly.

I swallowed hard.

Why was I crying? And why was I seeing my younger self in my dream?

Slowly I walked closer to get a better view and noticed that there were visible marks of abuse scattered all over my younger self's body.

My eyes widened.

No... I wasn't dreaming of that... of the times my father... NO!

I placed a hand to my head as the sounds of my crying haunted my ears, causing my heart to thunder inside my chest. All the pain and torment I received back then came flooding into my veins, making my whole body shudder in horror.

Why...? Why did I have to witness this...?

"Silver! Silver! You better not be sleeping!" I heard the horrendous booming voice of my father approaching from nearby and I could not stop my body from trembling.

No...not this...you have got to be joking!

I watched as my younger version screamed helplessly into the pillows, hands fisted desperately into the bedsheets, and as the door to my bedroom opened my heart seemed to just die inside my chest.

There he stood, large as life.

My father...

I couldn't move, I just became paralysed as I watched the tall man approach the small body of my younger self, so helpless... so afraid.

And I couldn't do anything...

"Stop crying you fucking girl! If you keep screaming like that I'll change your name to Silvia! And you would love that wouldn't you...?"

That name... it made me shudder.

Silvia...why? Why did he call me that?! My name was Silver! Why did he keep calling me a girl's name?!

I watched as he neared the younger version of myself and hissed into his ear;

"Silvia..."

I swallowed hard, really longing to do something, anything to get out of this situation, but it was hopeless. But deep inside I knew what was coming now, I knew how it felt to be abused, and I certainly didn't want to watch it.

So desperately I turned away only to be met by the haunting deafening screams from myself as something monstrous happened. Something that my father would be definitely going to hell for.

I closed my eyes, trying to ignore the horrible wailing sounds, the sounds of abuse ringing throughout my head.

Make it stop! Make it go away!

I bit my lip hard as my fingers dug harder into my head, trying to make myself wake up.

Wake up!

And as the wails turned into soft sobs I felt something sticky on the back of my pants.

Turning to look at my reflection in the mirror just before me I noticed that the back of my pants were stained with blood, fresh blood that trickled down my legs and caused my heart to literally break in two.

No...this...this was not happening!

In horror I watched as the stained garment got redder and redder as time lingered on, the longer my father abused my younger self.

Finally having the strength to close my eyes I couldn't help but just scream hopelessly;

"NOOOOOOOO STOPPPPP!"

I jolted awake only to feel something warm pressing against my cheek. Slowly opening my eyes I could barely make out a silhouette in the dim light.

Then the pressure seemed soft, as if it were fingers dancing over my skin.

And that was exactly what it was.

"...are you okay?"

The voice was soft in my ears, and instantly I relaxed against the touch. It was Green and once again he was here.

Closing my eyes I inhaled deeply.

Thank goodness that wasn't real...

"...nightmare again..." I mumbled sleepily, hating how every night I would be plagued by my inner demons and they just refused to go away.

I heard Green sigh as his fingers lingered on my face.

"Do you know why you keep suffering from nightmares?"

I shook my head weakly, not really wanting to go into detail about the real reasons. I would never be able to have a decent night's sleep, not after what I had been through. Things like that were just make believe now, and I had just accepted it.

"Also... why did you cut your hair?" Green sounded disappointed, but I didn't know why.

It was my decision to cut my hair off, no-one else's, and besides it shouldn't affect anyone else but me.

"...wanted a change..." I mumbled, now feeling Sneasel shuffle uncomfortably in my arms as she continued to sleep soundly.

My eyes were now getting adjusted to the poor lighting and noticed that Green must have been woken up by my screaming again or something. His eyes looked tired and he was wearing an old t-shirt with baggy tracksuit bottoms.

Obviously his nightwear.

"Look... I have been thinking..." Green mused softly, now removing his hand from my face as he looked thoughtful.

I watched him, as I felt Sneasel's soft rise and fall of her chest while she slept soundly.

"About what?"

"About that Cyan guy...I mean, he is dangerous right?"

Dangerous was an understatement right now. He was warped, mentally disturbed... evil...

"...the worst kind..."

Green nodded, placing a hand to his chin.

"Red works with him, I don't like the fact he is working with some crazy psychopath...so tomorrow I am going to Johto to do something about it"

I sat up slightly in Green's bed, careful not to wake up the sleeping ice type.

Did I hear that right? Green was going to go back to Johto to sort out Cyan? Was that even safe?

"...you're going to Johto?"

He nodded.

"Yes, I need to make sure that he doesn't harm Red, which he probably would if he knew you were friend's with him..."

That was a fair point, no-one was safe right now, especially if they knew me or were close to me. Lucky for me Blue was safe here in Kanto.

I frowned, not liking the idea of Cyan actually hurting Red. I know Red was boring but he wasn't a horrible person.

"...then I shall come too" I stated, knowing this was the perfect opportunity to make sure Gold was safe and sound.

Green smiled softly, obviously he knew I would say that.

"I was expecting you to say that, but we will have to leave tonight after work..."

I rubbed my eyes, now wondering what time it was. Probably the early hours of the morning as that was when my terrible nightmares happened.

I nodded, feeling a little better knowing soon I would be reunited with the one person who I loved more than life itself, and that Cyan's evil antics would soon be stopped.

"Okay, does Blue know about this?"

Green shook his head.

"No, if she did then she might risk putting herself in danger for you... you know how much she cares about you. So, that is why we can't tell her anything, other than you and I are going away for a few days to a meeting..."

Now I felt really bad about lying to Blue, but Green was right.

I needed to make sure she stayed in Kanto so then Cyan couldn't get to her. If that meant telling a little white lie then so be it.

I nodded weakly, trying to remember the excuse.

We were going to a meeting... shouldn't be too hard to remember...

"As much as I don't want to lie to Blue... I will just so she stays safe...I don't want to risk her getting hurt for me"

Green nodded determinedly.

"Exactly, and besides... Red is the champion so if Cyan did do anything right now he could probably hold his own until we got there. I shall give him a call later and tell him our plans..."

A small smile scarred my lips as I thought about how much Green obviously cared about Red.

He was just going to drop all of his responsibilities here to ensure the love of his life stayed safe, so why shouldn't I do the same?

"Sure... by the way what time is it?" I mumbled, feeling Sneasel shuffle in my arms as she was waking talking probably disturbed her.

Green squinted at his wristwatch for a while before answering;

"It's 4am, so if you want to sleep for a bit longer then you are more than welcome to, but I am going to sort out the plans for later..."

I watched as the brunette stood up tall, and smiled at me before turning to leave the room.

So that was settled, today was going to be the day that Cyan had his punishment, and if Green got hold of him he definitely would be punished.

Sneasel opened her large eyes sleepily and looked at me expectantly.

I smiled at her and gently patted her head.

"It's all sorted... we are going back to Johto tonight!"

"Sneeee~!" She beamed happily before snuggling into my arms once again.

Deep inside I wondered if this would end favourably for any of us.

Would Cyan purposely hurt the people I was close to just because his brother was suffering? Would Cyan kill anyone I loved just to watch me break down?

I sighed heavily.

The answer to all those questions was obviously a yes.

When it was 7am in the morning I decided to make a move and get ready to go to work.

Sadly I only had one pair of clothes and I was wearing them, so I needed to borrow something of Green's, if just for today. But Green's clothes were all oversized and showed far too much skin.

In this heat that was not going to happen, so after a lot of rummaging through the wardrobe I managed to find a black t-shirt that he must have worn years ago, because it was the smallest garment I could find.

But it would do for now.

I also had to borrow a pair of black trousers which were far too baggy for me, but it would be okay for today. Once I got my rucksack back then I could change into my own clothes, but they were still at the shop.

I readjusted the t-shirt on my shoulders as I looked at my reflection in the mirror, remembering that dream so vividly.

"Sneeeee!" Sneasel beamed happily, bouncing slightly on the bed.

She must have been excited to be going back to Johto today, after all it was where she was born so it was only natural.

I sighed at my reflection, secretly happy that my eyes did not detect any red blood stains on the trousers.

Thank goodness...

Then my eyes diverted to my now shorter hairstyle.

It still looked weird, but something I would get used to. Self consciously I ran my fingers through it, missing how it no longer tickled the back of my neck. But, it would always grow back so my short hair was the least of my worries right now.

My main concern was getting to work and then going to Johto in the evening.

It felt like years since I had last seen Gold's face, and I missed him so much.

"Right... it's time to go..." I murmured to Sneasel, who knew what that meant.

She happily obliged and allowed me to return her to her Pokeball. As I held the red and white ball in my hands I wondered if she knew all of what I was going through, could she feel all my pain and suffering?

Sighing softly I placed the ball on my belt and left Green's bedroom.

As I wondered down the stairs Green was waiting at the front door for me, dressed in his formal black attire. His eyes shot a confused glance at me for a moment, like he was wondering where I got the clothes from.

Maybe I should have asked to borrow them first?

"Are those... my clothes?" Green asked, trying to suppress a chuckle.

I nodded weakly, now feeling very self conscious.

"...All my clothes are in my rucksack at work... sorry...maybe I should have asked to borrow them..."

Then the emerald eyed boy chuckled, obviously finding the look on my face amusing.

"No.. no... it's fine. In fact... it kind of suits you in a weird and wonderful way..."

I raised an eyebrow at the taller male, wondering if he was trying to be funny about this, but I decided against arguing. Right now he had been one of the people to actually support me, and be on my side.

Slipping my shoes on I watched as Green opened his front door and let me walk out into the warm summer air.

Right now it wasn't that hot because it was early morning, but give it a few hours and my skin would probably be burning.

I waited for Green to lock his front door before we started our walk towards work.

I didn't even know where we were, but the scenery was beautiful.

Tall blossoming trees decorated either side of the road and melodious bird Pokemon could be heard singing loudly in the treetops. The sky was devoid of clouds giving it this lovely ocean blue colouring. It really was a nice crisp summer day.

"...so are you going to try to work things out with Gold?" Green asked me as we walked down the road to God knows where.

I shrugged weakly, not even knowing if Gold would even want to talk to me, let alone get back with me.

"I have no idea... he might not want anything to do with me..."

"That's rubbish and you know it. Gold loves the bones of you, and from what I can gather he won't be pulled into believing Cyan's lies about you"

I smiled softly, thankful that Green was trying to make me feel better and give me a small flash of hope.

He could be right, Gold knew me better than anyone and he would know that rape was one of the things I was not capable of.

Well... I hoped he knew that.

"I hope so... I don't know what I would do if he hated me..."

I kicked a stone into the gutter in annoyance.

I would kill Cyan for this, for trying to ruin my life. He would rue his decision to mess with me, I would make sure of it.

"From what I know about Gold I don't think he is capable of hating anyone, he is far too careless and laid back to feel hate towards anyone. He might be hurt, or upset... but he wouldn't hate you"

I glanced at Green, watching how his perfect face morphed into a wide smile.

Yes, he was right. Gold was all of those things...stupid...reckless...carefree...loving...laid back... but not horrible. But still, I couldn't help but worry about it.

"..Yeah, maybe you're right..."

"Of course I am! Since when am I ever wrong?" He joked, raising an eyebrow at me.

I nudged his arm playfully as we walked. It was nice to actually be able to talk about my problems for once, usually it was the hardest thing in the world for me.

Maybe I was learning to open up to people?

After a while I noticed we were walking through the middle of Saffron City.

It was so different from yesterday, there were hardly any people about and it was calm and peaceful. Probably because it was early in the morning and no-one was awake yet, apart from Green and I, but we were stupid.

It was nice to finally be able to appreciate the city in it's glory without the fast paced environment that went with it.

"Remember... not a word to Blue about what we are doing, okay?" Green reminded me, and I nodded.

Yes I knew that, I didn't want her following me to Johto and risking herself getting hurt in the crossfire.

"I know... I know..."

"She will understand when the time comes, and after all this is over then maybe we can explain why we lied to her..."

I didn't want to imagine how furious the brunette would be, but still this was for her own good.

Cyan was already hurting enough people without adding her to the list as well.

"I'll let you explain... considering she will probably kick your ass..."

I smirked, and Green chuckled.

Seemed like we both knew Blue too well.

"Yeah, you're right...but I would rather she kick my ass for protecting her than have a guilty conscience because something bad happened to her"

And that was also a valid point, I could never forgive myself if that occurred, and Cyan would be a dead man.

As both Green and I walked past an electrical store there was a television in the window that was showing the news.

Some how it intrigued me and so I came to standstill, watching the authoritative man read out the news bulletin.

"A ten year old boy committed suicide today in the region of Johto...apparently sources believe it was down to bullies who pushed the boy to end his life. Reporter Violet Winters is at the scene... Violet, how is it back there?"

My heart stopped in my chest as I watched the dark haired girl who took a photo of Gold and I standing right outside Cyan's grandparent's house, and all around it was yellow tape, like it was a crime scene.

Green came and stood behind me as I listened to Violet's voice;

"Hello, yes...this is a tragedy...apparently the ten year old had been suffering from depression, and that was what caused him to end his life. The whole family is torn apart and none of them can understand why such a sweet boy would want to do this. The police are looking into the cause of the young boy's death, and many people believe it was down to bullying. Bullying is a terrible crime which needs to be stopped..."

I zoned out from hearing her voice as my legs trembled underneath my body weight.

No... this was not happening!

Cyan's brother... he killed himself...? SHIT SHIT SHIT!

"Silver...? Are you feeling okay?" Green asked, his voice laced with concern.

Slowly in horror I shook my head.

Oh fuck! Gold was in trouble now!

"No... that kid...who killed himself... it's Cyan's brother!"

Green's face morphed into horror, obviously understanding why I was worked up over it.

"He was the kid who I told to stop being a Pokemon trainer because he sucked... I never knew it would lead to this!" I cried out, wanting to literally punch the television screen.

Green's face expressed the worry that coursed through my veins.

Now, the danger was more imminent than before!

Cyan promised me... if his brother died... he would destroy everything I loved!

Gold...

"Oh shit! We better get to work... and fast! I need to call Red!" Green said desperately, grabbing my wrist with force and pulling me away from the television.

And we ran to Celadon, and we didn't stop.

This must have happened this morning, so we still had time to do something about it. We just needed to call Red and find out if he was okay, and if Gold was safe.

That was the one thing I was most concerned about right now.

When we finally got to the department store Blue was already there, making sure all the displays looked pretty.

Little did she know that major drama was about to unfold in our lives, and it was all down to my stupid actions.

If only I had kept my mouth shut and not taunted that brat then he wouldn't have killed himself, and Cyan would not be on the warpath trying to destroy me.

Blue raised her eyes to Green and I, smiling wildly, only that smile soon disappeared when Green rushed behind the counter to grab the telephone.

"Green?! What the hell is going on?!" She cursed in annoyance, probably because he hadn't even said good morning to her.

I leant on the counter, watching Green dial Goldenrod Department Store's number furiously. He waited for a few moments and slammed the phone down in rage.

"It's busy for some reason... I'll have to keep trying..."

And as Green continued to dial the number Blue just turned to me.

"Why is Green being so... I don't know... desperate?"

I couldn't tell her the real reasons could I? Green had told me to make up something, anything so Blue wouldn't be involved.

And as bad as I felt I knew I had to do it.

"...something between him and Red... it's best not to get involved..."

That was the best thing I could come up with, but Blue believed me straight away.

"Oh, are they having another love spat? Seriously, those two need to just be locked in a closet and release all their sexual frustrations all at once..."

There was silence as Green stared at Blue in annoyance, obviously displeased with her fan girl moments.

She waved him off like she was kidding about it, but I knew that deep down she wasn't.

Green rolled his eyes and continued trying to ring Red, but there was no answer.

Now I was starting to worry.

What if Cyan had got to him first?

"...I think you should keep your fantasies to yourself next time..." I murmured, just loud enough for Blue to hear.

She giggled loudly.

"Who said I fantasize about that?"

"Well... who would want to think about Green and Red in a closet fucking?" I remarked.

"Can we PLEASE not have this conversation right now?!" Green asked desperately, making both myself and Blue nod weakly.

Why were we even on this topic? I didn't want to think of Red and Green doing the nasty! I mean it was Red! Did he even know how to do that?!

Shit... thinking about it again.

"...God... he is so touchy today..." Blue groaned about her superior, sighing as she leant on the counter.

I nodded, not having the heart to confess the real reasons for his behaviour. He was worried over Red, it was natural to be snappy.

"Hey Blue... can you do me a favour and go to the corner shop for me?" I asked, trying to think of something to get her out of the picture in case the conversation with Red happened soon.

Blue blinked curiously at me.

"What for...?"

Now, what would make Blue leave?

Oh... was I really going to ask her to get me... those?"

"...ummm...can buy me some... condoms?"

"WHAT?!" Blue screamed out, causing Green to groan in annoyance.

Of course it was a lie, but if she knew that I needed them for something then she probably would leave. It was worth a shot.

"You heard me..."

"Why do you need condoms?!"

I rolled my eyes, wondering why she even asked that stupid question.

It took a few seconds before the penny dropped.

"OH!"

"Well... can you?" I asked again, watching the older girl giggle to herself, probably enjoying all the pleasing images running riot in her warped mind.

But still, that wasn't of importance right now.

"I certainly can! I can't allow my Silver to go around having unprotected sex!"

I placed a hand to my head in annoyance.

Why did she have to go and tell everyone? But still, it seemed my plan was working.

I watched as the brunette slipped from behind the counter, giving me a coy smile as she walked towards the elevator, obviously brooding on those images for a while.

Sighing heavily I leant on the counter, wondering how I had the energy to lie like that to her face?

Then I heard Green's voice;

"Red...? Red..! Thank goodness you answered!"

I raised my head, listening to the conversation as best as I could.

"...what? Yes I am fine! This is not about me! Red... are you okay there, like has anything happened?"

I waited, praying and hoping that he was okay, and that Cyan had not decided to target him to get to me. Watching Green's face contort into a variety of emotions was actually fascinating.

"...I see... what, you want to talk to Silver...? Oh yeah, he is here... I'll put him on..."

Why did he want to talk to me?

I slowly walked behind the counter, watching as Green held the receiver out to me.

"He wants to talk to you... I don't know why..."

I frowned, remembering the last telephone conversation Red and I had, and how incredibly boring it was. But still, this was a serious matter this time.

"Hello...?" I asked cautiously, feeling Green's eyes burn into the back of my head.

"Silver...I needed to ask you something... are you actually going to come back to Goldenrod?"

I held the receiver tightly in my hands as I cleared my throat;

"Yes... why do you ask?"

"...I just wondered. Cyan keeps asking me if you are going to come back... and he told me that I actually shouldn't talk to you or anything because you sexually abused him, or something..."

I rolled my eyes.

Did Red seriously believe I was capable of doing that?

I placed a hand to my head;

"I didn't touch him... I swear I didn't"

"I don't care if you did, or if you didn't I just needed to know if you were coming back to work. Gold keeps coming in...and asking about you... and I kind of feel bad for him. Cyan's been talking to him a lot lately... I was just wondering if you were coming back to try to sort things out..."

So Cyan had been talking to Gold in my absence, but Gold had still been coming to the department store? Did that mean... he still loved me?

I swallowed hard, moving uncomfortably on my heels.

"Yes... I am coming back very soon..."

There was a pause.

"Good...you need to be careful though..."

Did Red know how warped Cyan was in the head? And I knew I had to be careful, I wasn't stupid.

Cyan would not get away with this though.

"...I know.. I'll be okay..."

"Yeah, no doubt. Also, can you tell me why is Green so worried over me?"

I turned to look at the taller male, seeing a sadness in his eyes. It made me feel sad too, and that was probably because he loved Red so much and I knew what that felt like.

I knew what it felt like to hurt so deep down in the core of your soul... so it felt like your whole world was tearing at the seams.

"He thinks... Cyan might hurt you..."

"Why would Cyan do that?"

I didn't have the heart to tell him everything, how all this mess was my fault, that if I had just kept my mouth shut then this whole fiasco could have been avoided.

Instead I decided on saying something a bit less intimidating.

"...he thinks Cyan might hurt you because... he is messed up in the head..."

There was a pause, obviously Red was thinking about something.

"Cyan has been fine since you left... it's like a big weight has been lifted off his shoulders, although I do not like how he has been hanging around Gold, like he is trying to replace you or something..."

I clenched my hand into a fist in annoyance.

How dare that prick try and make a move on my Gold! I would definitely teach him a lesson for that!

I closed my eyes briefly, trying to stay calm.

"...he won't be fine when I get back... I can promise that..."

"I think you should stay away from him.. especially if he has told everyone you sexually abused him... he could go to the police or anything with an accusation like that. It's best you keep away from him..."

I frowned in annoyance.

Damn Cyan and his malicious lies! So he wasn't making it up to get to me, he even told Red! So he must have told Gold... and Crystal too if he saw her. But would any of them believe him over me? I hoped not.

"...You need to be careful too..." I warned.

There was an uncomfortable silence on the other end of the phone.

"...I really don't understand why you think Cyan would hurt me..."

I rolled my eyes, not believing how dense Red was being.

Did he know he was working with a mentally unstable person?! Maybe I should tell him that Cyan was after me... and that if Red was seen speaking to me he could be in the firing line?

"...Cyan is after me, he wants to destroy everything that I love, and the people I know... that is why Green and I think you aren't safe there..."

I heard Red inhale deeply, like he was genuinely shocked about what I just said.

My eyes flickered over to Green who continued to watch me talk to his one true love.

"...shit, sounds pretty bad..."

"Yes! That is why you need to do something about him! Get him fired or something, or leave the shop for the day. Green and I are coming back tonight to sort this out..."

I couldn't believe I was asking Red to leave the shop for his own safety.

Once upon a time I couldn't care less if he randomly exploded in front of me, but ever since I knew Green I didn't feel annoyed at him any more.

"Okay... I'll do that...I'll phone Officer Jenny as well and tell her-"

Suddenly Red's voice was cut off by a loud bang and then the sound of something crashing.

My heart beat quickened it's pace until it was literally ringing in my ears.

What the hell just happened?!

"Are you still there...Red?!" I called out, wondering if the phone line went dead.

But it didn't.

I didn't hear anything, just silence.

And now I was starting to panic.

"...RED?!" I cried out, knowing that Green would probably be going mental right about now.

But so was I.

Had Cyan done something to him?!

My hand's started to tremble as I slowly removed the receiver from my ear, widened eyes facing towards the tall brunette.

Shakily I managed to choke out;

"R-Red... he...he's not talking any more..."

"WHAT?!"

Green quickly snatched the phone from my fingers and tried his best to get something out of the Champion. But every time he shouted his name into the receiver he received nothing back, and I just watched his face crumble right in front of me.

This... this was all my fault... And now we needed to go to Johto now! If Red had been hurt we needed to get back, because it would only be a matter of time before Cyan targeted everyone else too.

Green angrily threw the phone on the floor before pacing up and down, running his hands through his hair.

"...what the hell are we going to do?!"

My heart was still pounding in my chest, creating this nauseating feeling to consume me.

"I don't know... we need to get back to Johto and soon!"

Green stood still, as his hands fell to his sides.

They clenched into fists in anger, obviously he wanted to hurt something right now, and I knew how that felt.

If Cyan had hurt Gold... he was a dead man.

"Right, scrap the old plan... we have to tell Blue what the fuck is going on! She needs to be aware of this fucking psychopath! She needs to know that he will hurt everyone you know!"

I frowned at the thought but nodded anyway.

He was right, she needed to be aware of the enemy she was up against.

How could you fight something you didn't know about?

"...Yes you are right..."

"And when she comes back we will leave right away... I need to find out if Red is okay... I swear... if that bastard has hurt him I WILL KILL HIM!"

I had never seen Green so angry before, and to be honest it was something I didn't like. He actually seemed like he had blood lust in his eyes, like killing Cyan was top on his bucket list.

Not that I cared, that was something that a lot of people desired right now.

My ears detected the sound of the elevator doors opening and as my eyes diverted towards the direction I noticed Blue walking towards us with a carrier bag, wearing a wide smile.

Deep inside it felt like I was decaying, slowly turning into something that was no longer human.

How was I supposed to tell Blue that she was in danger because of me?!

"That didn't take long..." I managed to choke out, forcing a smile to scar my face as she walked up to the counter.

"I'm a girl... we don't take forever to find things like this"

I raised an eyebrow at her.

Was she trying to say that because I was a guy I was incompetent?

Not that it mattered right now, I just needed to try to explain this situation without making her freak out.

Green had stopped pacing up and down and had now sat himself on the kick stool, head in his hands.

"...Blue..." I tried, before I was brutally cut off.

"I bought you the best one's I could find... oh! And I also bought you this!"

I watched as the blue eyed girl held up a black silk blind fold, and for that moment all I could think of was 'why the fuck did she buy this?!'

"...a blindfold?" I managed to mumble, watching as Blue eyed the garment in her hands.

She giggled playfully.

"Of course!"

"And... why did you buy that?"

The brunette sighed, like she expected me to know all the warped things that ravaged her mind. Luckily for me I was spared any details.

"Think about it Silver! You and Gold have a lot of making up to do! And I mean A LOT! So... what better way to spice up your sex life but with this?"

Did she really just say that? Like seriously?

We were worried to death over Red... and if he was actually still alive... and Blue was talking about me using a blindfold to spice up my sex life?!

"...Blue...I need to talk to you about something..." I swallowed hard as the taller girl placed the item back into the plastic bag.

Large azure eyes gazed into my own.

"Yes?"

I looked away briefly, wondering how to exactly tell her this.

Should I just be honest?

"...you know Cyan... the guy who is trying to destroy me because I hurt his little brother?"

Blue nodded, and listened to me intently.

Taking a deep breath I decided I had to do this, she needed to know just what was happening.

"...his brother committed suicide today..."

My eyes flickered up to her face, watching as she gasped in shock.

Maybe she already knew that we were all in trouble?

"Oh no! Does that mean you will be in trouble or something?"

As I was about to explain, Green piped up instead.

"...Cyan wants to destroy everything and everyone Silver is close to, or is friend's with. We think... Cyan has targeted Red first..."

I flinched mentally, not enjoying the images that flooded my mind.

If Red was preoccupied with talking to me Cyan could easily have used a weapon or something on the Champion.

God... why was this even happening?!

Blue's face appeared crestfallen as the information started to sink in.

"...Oh no... Red...what are we going to do?!"

I glanced at Green, watching as he stood up, a look of determination scarring those perfect features.

"Silver and I are going back to Johto to sort Cyan out, if he has hurt Red... he is a dead man!"

"...but you need to stay here!" I managed to add in, making Blue's eyes sparkle in sadness.

She must have known this could be serious, especially considering we didn't know how dangerous Cyan was.

Lately all he was capable of was malicious lies and deceit... but what if he was capable of murder? That I could not handle.

"….I see...but what about you?! I don't want you getting hurt! Either of you!"

Both Green and I knew Blue would behave like this, but this was for her own good. Getting involved in this scenario only meant trouble, and that was something she needed to stay away from.

"Blue you have to do as we say and stay here in Kanto. We don't know what Cyan will do to any of the people Silver is close to... it's for your own safety..." Green issued softly, his face contorting to a sad frown.

And as those words passed his lips my mind immediately thought about Gold.

Cyan had been talking to him a lot lately, so what if he had got to him first? What if Cyan... had killed him?!

My heart quickened it's pace in my chest as a horrible sickening taste flooded my mouth.

No...he couldn't hurt Gold... I wouldn't let him!

"...okay...I'll stay here, but you have to call me and tell me everything that happens! I need to know you two are safe!"

Right now my mind had wondered, drifted away from Green and Blue, and the fact I was in Kanto.

I thought about the better times, to times when Crystal, Gold and I used to hang out together, even if most of the time I was annoyed or angry at Gold's jokes... I missed those times. A part of me wondered if I would ever go back to that feeling, the feeling of being carefree... and even happy.

"...But we have to leave right now, so can you hold the fort at work while Silver and I leave? We have to make sure Red is okay, and check up on Gold too..."

Green's voice lingered in my ears as I slowly started to return to reality.

To Blue standing by the counter, her face pained with worry... to Green looking confident and determined... and finally to this horrible gut wrenching feeling that had consumed me.

"Yes, Yes! I understand! You better be quick then! The Magnet Train leaves Saffron City in ten minutes!"

Snapping out of any trance I might have been in I swiftly snatched my rucksack from behind the counter, ready for our journey back to Johto. Green nodded obediently.

We still had enough time if we made a run for it.

"I promise to give you a call when we are in Johto..."

Green and I slipped from behind the counter, allowing the short haired girl to take our places. I watched as the taller male gave her a hug and then waited so I could do it myself.

As her slender feminine arms embraced me I heard her chest heave painfully.

Was she crying?

"You better be careful! If you do anything stupid... I'll kill you myself!"

I smiled sadly, not actually wanting to let her go. This was all my fault, so I needed to make things right again.

"I promise..."

"Come on then, we don't have much time!" Green called out to me, and with one final squeeze I released the blue eyed girl, watching as she wiped her face quickly.

Forcing a smile she replied;

"Well, get going then before I change my mind!"

Readjusting the rucksack on my back I nodded, trying so hard not to break down in front of her, but I could always come back after all this was over.

And with one final wave of my hand Green and I ran towards the elevator, preparing ourselves for whatever awaited us back in Johto.
