Short, but a damn emotional episode that really does improve on the drama of the last with a conclusion that made me cry. And it's not even over yet.
I still want comments though.
Episode Fifty-Four: Night's Final Judgement
"Uncle Flame! Don't let him win!" Came the cry from behind, making me turn round in suprise. I noticed that Hypno had done the same and was staring at Spiral, then I noticed that I had moved out of relex and not because of his control. I had my body back, and a fireball brewing.
Hypno collapsed to the floor due to the sheer force of the fireball that smashed into the back of its head. It recovered quickly and somehow managed to throw Spiral using its psychic power. I watched her collide with a tree, before a bright light shone from behind me.
Suddenly, a small black furred Pokémon stepped forward. It had strange glowing markings on its head, and it was focused strait on Hypno.
"Leave my sister alone," came the deep growl from its throat. I was standing gormless, probably partially to blood loss thanks to my still-bleeding muzzle, as I watched Blacky stare down the Hypno.
"Or what? You're going to try and attack me?" Hypno laughed, "I can throw you away just like I did your sister."
"Not if I get you first," Blacky snarled, the sudden agression from the normally docile kit was a slight shock to me. But not quite a shock as what happened next.
Hypno raised its hand and a purple ball formed and floated in midair.
"You cannot beat my psychic power!" It yelled as it fired the ball strait at Blacky, who just stood there was it flew closer.
"Blacky! Get out of the way!" I yelled, unable to move as the ball collided with the black furred Pokémon.
There was a huge purple explosion, I was really starting to hate the colour purple by this point, and Hypno was laughing its head off. It shut up when Blacky appeared out of the smoke and dived ontop of it, clamping his jaw onto the Hypno's arm exactly like what I had done to that Frank's leg.
I could see the sun beginning to show above the treeline, as Hypno screamed and tryed to ply Blacky off of its arm.
"Looks like your psychic power is a load of utter crap," I said, smiling at the sight before me as I walked over.
"Get this thing off of me!" Hypno yelled, as Blacky bit down even harder.
"Okay, but only if I get to do something first," I said, a sly grin on my face.
"Anything!"
"Okay," I said, pulling back my fist and smashing Hypno in the face.
"Blacky, off," I said, kneeling over the stunned Hypno. Blacky released his hold and looked up at me.
"Why did you punch him?"
"I'm not finished yet."
I pulled back my fist and slugged Hypno a second time, "this is for what you did to Squirtle and the others."
Hypno was knocked unconsious, but I smashed it again, "for what you tried to make me do!"
Its face was bleeding and battered but I punched it a third time, "this is for the Flareon you killed!"
I pulled back my fist and focused as hard as I could on the spot where I had hit it the first time, when it had set my friends on me, and muttered quietly, "and finally: For her children."
I brought my fist down one last time, with all the force I could muster. There was a sickening crunch and the Hypno twitched slightly as its body tried to absorb the power of my attack. It was a futile attempt, there was no sign of breathing from the Psychic Pokémon and I climbed too my feet with a sigh, "an end to an end."
The sunlight had illuminated the entire clearing by now and I stepped away from the dead Hypno. I didn't feel happy that I had killed, but I wasn't exactly upset either. I had done it to defend both Blacky and his sister. Even though Blacky was somehow immune to the psychic blasts, the Hypno could still have made either me or his sister attack him before continuing with its plan.
I looked up and saw Spiral walking over too us, she was a little dirty but seemed okay. My legs suddenly gave out and I fell on my backside, suddenly drained of all my energy as both the adreneline wore off and bloodloss began to take affect. I was aware of something sneaking up behind Spiral, who was running over to me.
The Persian lept out of the bushes and shot strait over Spiral, it was staring strait at me instead. Obviously, Hypno's control over it hadn't worn off completely and it was angry at its master's defeat.
"Blacky, take your sister and get out of here. It'll go after you next," I told the Ex-Eevee, pushing it to the side as the Persian dashed closer.
