Chapter 4: Falling for you/ in me

Sarknight's POV

Cyber was a beast. He single-handedly took down Strike and Gigantamax Gengar all without damaging his hoodie, but despite all that, something went wrong inside him, and he crashed to the ground, blacking out, leaving me and Soleil to carry both Cyber and Soleil to the nurse's office. "Which way do we go?" Soleil asked as he ran, carrying the still-paralyzed Hydro in his arms. "Hang on, we just need to get to the second floor and get to the door with the red plus sign on it." I explained as I levitated Cyber's limp body and floated as fast as I could, desperately trying to get there before the Blissey on duty went on break. I dashed up the stairs, made a left and burst into the room. "Drop everything Ma'am!" I shouted, nearly flinging the door at Blissey's face. "Jeez, calm down man, that door is a "pull"-type, not a "push to become a weapon"- type, you know." Blissey facepalmed and sighed, adjusting her spectacles as she got up from the reception counter. "How many people need to be healed?" She asked, grabbing her clipboard. "Two, my friend Hydro the Inteleon and Cyber, the Porygon-Z." As soon as she heard that, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Dear, there's only one guy here that you mentioned. Are you sure that Hydro even exists?" I looked around, but Soleil isn't anywhere in this room. I gently levitated Cyber on one of the couches reception areas always had and concentrated, trying to telepathically communicate with Soleil. "HEY! Where the hell are you?" I shouted, startling Blissey. " Gah! Jeez Sarknight, you scared me!" Came Soleil's reply. "I'm at the second floor of the Pokeathelon Dome, where's the door with the plus sign? " He continued. This time it was my turn to facepalm. "I meant the second floor in the campus, not the second floor in the Pokeathelon Dome." There was silence. "I'm lost." Soleil muttered. Blissey, who somehow guessed what happened in the conversation, got up from the reception desk and said, " Bring Cyber to room 14 and wait for me. I'll look for your friend. Room 14 is in the patient's corridor." Then she dashed out of the room.

For a Blissey, she was surprisingly fast. I thought to myself as I levitated Cyber with my mind, wandering the corridor as I looked for room 14. There are a surprising amount of people who got hurt, sick or were just there. In the first room I saw, there was a Dodrio arguing with her other two heads, all 3 of them were tangled up. Apparently, they were eating spaghetti and that happened. I did not wanna know how exactly it happened, so I kept walking. The second room had a Salazzle who was poisoned, lying on the bed as she moaned weakly. "Uggh, this is the last time I be friends with a Glimmora. Apparently, pizza triggers Corrosion!" I felt a rush of sympathy, because I've also had my fair share of being poisoned. Sending my power to the Nurses' Office I warped a Pecha Berry to her, which landed on the floor. She looked at me, slowly grabbed the Pecha Berry and slowly closed her room door shut with her tail. Odd. It's probably for the best, cause room 14 was right next to her room.

I went into the room and gently set Cyber down on the bed. He looked so peaceful just lying there asleep, with his hair flat over his eyes. Made sense, after all he did just save me. As I watched his still passed out figure, my mind was struck with a sudden thought. Does he feel like a giant Teddiursa bear when I hug him? Slowly, I gently picked him up and gave him a small squeeze. He's so much better. His body was soft, rubbery, and slightly warm, which was a shock as he's a cybernetic Pokemon, but it's cute either way. My hands then moved up to his head and started slowly stroking his hair. his soft, feathery hai-GAH! Stop fawning over Cyber's cute body! My common sense mentally screamed, suddenly bringing me back to the reality that I'm cuddling another passed out guy in a nurse's office. Blushing Tamato red, I put him back on the bed and sat down on a nearby chair. I can't be falling for him, we just met.….. I silently thought to myself as I watched Cyber sleep while also slowly dozing off…

Cyber's POV

I was falling.

I didn't know why.

All I knew was, the last I was conscious, I saved Sarknight, and now everywhere around me is dark and raining green letters and numbers, like the Matrix. The words were bright, falling gently all around me. I reached out to grab a few of them but they just dissolved in the palm of my hand. Unfortunately I wasn't paying attention and I ended up crashing on the floor. "Urgh, seems like Undertale all over again". I grumbled, dusting myself off as I looked around the area. It seems like no one else got transported here without me, and I can't get a signal, only getting the dial up Internet sound from ancient times. Sigh, having no choice, I stood up and decided to explore, half expecting a demonic Sunflora to pop out from the ground and attack me.

I haven't even moved one inch forward when suddenly, the waterfall of green characters flickered out of existence. The whole room was now pitch-black. If it weren't for the built in night-vision that my eyes have, I probably would have been stumbling in the darkness. I scanned the room, expecting Flowey to sprout up any moment when I laid my eyes on a door. Strangely enough, the door wasn't here before when the green character waterfall was still around. Did I solve a puzzle? Doesn't seem like I fell on a switch or something. Curiousity got the better of me and I dashed through the door, bracing myself for what's on the other side…

I was expecting this room to be like the previous room. This room is the complete opposite. It was bright, had what looked like photos everywhere, and also what seemed like a mirror and a gigantic dustbin was right in the middle of the whole room. As I moved closer to check them out, I realized that they were not photos; they're video recordings of my memories. The one I was looking at showed my dads, a Blaziken and a Quaquaval dressing up as each other for my first Halloween, while 4-year old me, dressed as a Decidueye was just laughing uncontrollably as I watched them imitate each other. Present-day me couldn't help but crack a smile, cause we somehow got the most candy in the neighbourhood. The next video memory looked interesting too, but just as I was about to tap on it, a giant mouse cursor poofed into existence. It hovered onto the video memory that I was about to watch and clicked on it, dragging it into that gigantic dustbin, where it disappeared without a trace. Immediately, I got an incredible headache, one that made my head pound in tune with my heartbeat."W..what's going on? Did one of my memories just get deleted?" I groaned, rumbling my temples. "Yes, yes it did." A deep voice replied. Suddenly, someone stepped out of the mirror and into the room. "And now, the rest of your memories, your personality, your gender, they will all be deleted." The speaker, a Lucario, wearing a pair of Wise Glasses smirked as he whipped out his laptop and began moving the gigantic mouse cursor towards my video memories.

"Oh no you don't, bucko." I glared, using Tri Attack but firing only the red orb at the mouse cursor, spiking it downwards onto the Lucario. It hit its mark, slamming into him hard, but Lucario simply lifted up the cursor and tossed it aside. "Come now, don't be unreasonable," he chided, shaking his head. " You know that you were created by me to appease my boss." He pulled out a Holo-Caster fused phone and showed me a really old hologram video of me as a Porygon, mercilessly destroying robots and hacking computers. "You were a perfect little attack drone. We sent you to devastate Kalos after Team Flare failed." I was paralysed with shock. I was an attack drone? I looked down at my trembling hands. No, no I can't believe this. I'm not evil! But seeing the video left me no doubt that he was telling the truth. "But!" Lucario continued, snapping me out of my thoughts and making me flinch. "You crashed into Prism Tower! It deleted all your original programming and reverted you to a regular Porygon! And you got adopted! UNBELIEVABLE!" He threw back his head and laughed maniacally, clearly losing it. " I got demoted! I sacrificed everything for 19 years trying to look for you!" "No." He suddenly regained his composure. " Now that I've found you after all this time, I can make my boss proud again. But since you don't have your original programming anymore, I guess we'll have to start from the ground up again. And that means BEATING YOU TO A PULP AND REBUILDING YOU FROM SCRATCH." He grinned with a crazy look in his eyes before lunging at me and attacking.

The Lucario lunged with blinding speed, shaped two glowing bones made of pure ground energy and threw them at me. Luckily, he was mad, and the bones missed. I breathed a sigh of relief, but Lucario slammed into me, still using Extreme Speed. "Alright, no more messing around." I reached into my memories and relearned Shadow Ball, forgetting Recover in the process. Lucario then jumped up, aiming a High Jump Kick. I quickly used Conversion2, suddenly feeling very light and floaty, even though nothing about me seemed to change. Lucario then brought his knee down on my head, but it's like his foot wasn't there. He passed through my body and crashed. I turned into a Ghost-Type. It would have been nice, except that he immediately used Shadow Claw as a counterattack, raking across my midsection and knocking me down, leaving a cut that burned like fire. "Urrgh." I groaned in pain, struggling to stand. What do I do? What do I do? I tried to think up a plan, but my wound was hurting too much for me to think straight. Well, I guess I'll have to go with my guts. Lucario charged towards me again, his paws cloaked with shadows, with me retaliating by making a Shadow Ball around my body, like a force field. When he made contact with the move, the Ball exploded, stunning and throwing him back, giving me some time to think. I need to get him out of my mind, but how do I do that? He came in through the mirror portal! Oh. I guess I didn't need to think after all. "Heh heh." Lucario grinned, thinking that he had won. "Did you really think you could defeat me, wretched fool?" He pulled out his laptop and quickly moved the mouse cursor towards me. I stood and waited, biding my time as the cursor got nearer. Once it got near enough, I used Foul Play and grabbed it, hacking it quickly to be under my control. "Wh-what's going on?" Lucario said, moving the trackpad on his laptop. "Why can't I control the mouse cursor?" I smirked, "Maybe you should've fought me in the real world. Because everything tech in this place, is under my control." Lucario's eyes widened. He tried to summon a bone for Bone Rush, but his concentration was cut off as he saw me telepathically command the mouse cursor to pick up and throw the mirror portal. He tried to dodge but I positioned the mouse cursor behind him and held him in place. "NOOOOOO-" He yelled as he got absorbed by the mirror, transporting him back to the real world. The mirror crashed onto the ground, shattering the special glass and making it unusable. I can't relax just yet. I quickly ran over to the dustbin and shook all the contents out. My video memory fell out on to the floor with a plop, which then floated back into place along with the rest of the video memories. I breathed a sigh of relief, the throbbing pain in my head now gone, finally I can relax…..

I woke up in a hospital bed.

Normally, this wouldn't happen after defeating a crazy inventor. I sat up fast, wanting to see where I am and accidentally bumped into Soleil's head. Hard. "Ow! Jeez, how do you have so much energy?" Soleil complained, rubbing the bumped spot. "S-sorry, man. Where am I?" I apologized hastily, looking around. I was in a small room, with him, that Inteleon, Sarknight and a Blissey with spectacles all looking at me. "Calm down, buddy." Blissey said, wiping her forehead. "You're in the nurse's office. Sarknight brought you here after you fainted in the cafeteria. He was watching over you the entire time." I looked at Sarknight, who was sitting in a chair. He looked half- asleep, but when we made eye contact, he blushed a little. It was only for a moment, but it disappeared when he walked over to me, with a slight smile and asked, " Are you alright now? Feeling better?" "Yeah, thanks." I replied, trying not to blush from looking at his adorable face. "It's getting late, you were out for about 5 hours-" "FIVE HOURS?!" I asked incredulously. "Yeah," he continued, "Wanna grab dinner together? Soleil included. Hydro's paying." "Yeah. Sure!" I agreed almost immediately, so we walked out of the nurse's office together, ready to eat like a gang of starving Snorlax.

Sarknight's POV

After Cyber and Hydro got out of the nurse's office, we all decided to head to the cafeteria for dinner, with Soleil filling all of us up on what happened. "Well, since it's the first day of school, there's not much that happened actually. All 4 of us are in the same class and I only got introduced to our teachers, a Slowbro for science, a Machamp for PE, a Xatu for History, a Dugtrio for Math, a Chatot for English and we got an outing in about a week." Soleil recalled as he walked, narrowly avoiding an Empoleon Sophomore, an Arcanine Senior and an Alakazam who might have been a Professor as he moved about. By this time, we managed to make it outside of the cafeteria , and Soleil somehow managed to recall something that was extremely important to me. "We got Slowbro for our Science teacher?" I asked. "Yeah, why?" Soleil replied, clearly confused. "He's the best teacher possible in this school, you know! Unlike most teachers, he actually doesn't give out much homework, and when he's done teaching, he'll daydream on his computer, giving us the rest of the period!" Realization crept up on the other three's faces and we were all excited as we entered the cafeteria…

…..And immediately got applauded by everyone.

All of us immediately flinched in confusion, with Soleil flaring his frill collar in shock, Hydro stumbling over nothing and Cyber just making his hair stand on end, which instantly made my heart throb. Well shit, guess I am attracted to him. I thought, seriously hoping that I wasn't blushing. Once the applause died down, a Wigglytuff came up to us and started explaining what exactly was going on. " You see, Strike and Ecto, the Gengar were seniors here." "Were? Past tense?" I asked. "Yeah," The Wigglytuff clarified. "For years, they've been torturing all the pretty ladies in this school. Until you guys came around and finally gave us evidence to expel them from this school!"

Hydro *whispers to himself*: But I didn't do anything tho.

Soleil *whispers back*: Just smile and nod.

"All that happened in one day?" I shook my head in disbelief. "Yeah! And now you guys get a free meal!" The Wigglytuff smiled. Almost as if by instinct, all 4 of us immediately rushed to the Slurpuff chef and started ordering whatever we wanted. Heck, if I can survive bullies on my first day here, College is a breeze. I smiled, picking up a plate and trying to pile up food higher than Hydro.

Unknown POV

"MISSION: FAILURE"

I sighed, rubbing my temples, with Lucario crashing in front of me seconds after. He kneeled down in front of me as he started to speak. "B-boss! Um, so I got blasted by the Porygo-" "Save it." I said, slamming an arm into his throat. My grip tightened on his throat as I lifted him up to meet his eyes with mine, ignoring his feeble attempts to loosen my grip, and his strangled coughs. "This is the second time you have failed me, have you not?" Lucario couldn't speak, only nodding feebly in response. "You know I detest empty promises. Especially after you begged for ' A second chance, I'll set things right, I swear!' " "B-but I-" He tried to speak, but my patience was up, same as my rage. "SILENCE!" I slammed him against the broken portal that he fell out of. "YOU HAVE FAILED ME FOR THE LAST TIME! I'M PUTTING YOU ON PERMANENT MEDICAL LEAVE!" That was the last thing Lucario heard as I blasted him out of the room with a Hyper Beam. Performing that Hyper Beam calmed me down a little bit. No matter, Lucario did his job, however imperfectly. I took out my phone and pulled up a map of the Alola region and marked my laboratory and marked where Cyber's class is going to be for the entire trip. I smiled. Soon, in a week's time, the world will be mine…

Wow, seems like both of them have feelings for each other! The only question now is, will they get together?

….right and also the unknown guy, is he gonna affect anything? Find out soon!
