INM 12: The Curseeeeeee
"Wait why do so many awful horrible stuff happen to these critters, like aren't you god? Can't you save them?" You ask.
"As much as I'd like to change some lives, as ruler and creator of everything I cannot interfere with them... Plus many multiverses exist and in this one I for some reason have my powers limited... By a curious yet strange phenomena." Arceus lore dumps on you.
"Phenomena, what would that be?" You ask again.
"How the fuck should I know, if I knew then I would've gotten rid of it but for some reason I can't... so my powers are just limited to chilling in heaven I guess, watching the world turn to shit..." Arceus have a sigh as she looked a bit sad.
"But so many awful things are happening in this world! Buohs experiments, Lindsays abuse, how the competition treats people like Whitney! You can't keep letting this happen to others!" You say.
"Again, as much as I'd like to give blessings to some of my devoted followers I cannot... I am stopped by an unknown force such as the tale of the next story I will read thee." Arceus flipped the pages of her book and we zoom in changing scenery
(Kalos - Santalune Forest)
We see many trees and plants all around as well as the grunts of a woman; as we focus in on her we see it's actually a pokemon.
A Dedenne in fact, she just laid two eggs.
"Great job honey!" A male shiny Dedenne smiles.
"W-wait love.. I think there's one more..." The Dedenne grunted as she tried to push out the egg but this one was way larger than the other two.
The mother Dedenne cried as she tried and tried to get it out but it wasn't working; the husband looked worried for his wife and tried to console and help her.
After hours of labor the egg was out, but the mother was too weak and died in the progress.
The father Dedenne grieved in loss of his beloved, but still protected and took care of the eggs.
A few weeks later; they started to hatch, two healthy Dedennes came out of the normal eggs but out of the large one, a slightly chubbier one came out.
For some reason the father felt this overwhelming hatred and disgust whenever he saw her; same with the other babies.
The baby Dedenne felt uncomfortable and bothered by their sibling.
"Must be parental nervousness... Okay do you will be named Anne..." the father named one of the daughters.
"You will be named Brett." The father named his son.
"And you..." The father glanced at the final child.
The obese baby looked oblivious and happy.
"...you will be Brianna..." the father just picked a random name and looked away from her as quick as he could.
Many months passed with the father taking care of his children as best as he could; the other two lived normal lives eating berries from the forest, playing around and learning.
Brianna however always seemed to be getting into trouble, she was extra clumsy, extra aloof and wild pokemon seemed to absolutely loath her.
Her own family actually heavily disliked it, they didn't know why; they just couldn't place their finger on it but it was always at the tip of their tongue and the reason could just never fully come out.
Brianna was absolutely bullied by everyone; her siblings, her own father, wild pokemon, even at school... Students and teachers all despised her.
They called her names all the time as she always messed up no matter how hard she tried.
Brianna was kind of a cry baby, she cried whenever she was yelled at which just made everyone hate her even more.
Her weeps and snotty face full of tears just seemed to piss everyone off; and nobody understood why.
One day her father snapped.
Brianna was happily eating Sitrus Berries.
"Brianna! Did you just eat those berries I been saving up for Anne's birthday!?" The father yelled.
"W-what!? I didn't know sorry dad, I uh... Oh jeez I'm sorry!" Brianna looked nervous.
"Ugh you're such a mess up Brianna, you always do stupid shit like this!" The dad screamed.
"I didn't mean it, I was just hungry..." Brianna looked very sad.
"Hungry!? Look at your fatass! You do NOT need any more food you pig!" The father yelled.
"What's going on?" Brett asked; he and his sibling had just woken up.
"Brianna just ate your sister's surprise birthday snack." The dad crossed his arms.
"YOU WHAT!?" Anne looked pissed off.
"Of course she would do something like that..." Brett facepalmed.
"YOU FUCKING ATE MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT YOU FAT BITCH!" Anne yelled.
"EEEEEEEEE! I'M SORRY!" Brianna cried.
"Ugh! There we go again, there is the whinny bitch always throwing a pity party for herself!" Brett glared.
"You aren't the victim here hoe, you are my arceus damn present!" Anne yells.
"EEEEEEEEE! I-" Brianna cried some more she was shaking.
"Nobody fucking likes you Brianna! Not the students, not the teachers, not even us! No wonder you have no friends you loser!" Brett told her.
"I tried to be a good father, to raise you despite you being the reason my wife died! But I've had it with your constant everyday fuck ups! I'm sick of starring at your irritating stupid face!" The father shouted.
"For real she gives me the ick..." Anne looked annoyed.
"I- what? Come on guys..." Brianna looked worried.
"Get out Brianna, leave us and never come back! Nobody likes you got it! Fucking LEAVE!!!!" her dad yells.
"Yeah get out you weirdo, fucking leave!" Brett shouts.
"What are you waiting for you biggie, fucking leaves! Shoo shoo!" Anne yelled.
Brianna cried and ran away; no matter where she went wild pokemon seemed to hate her and want her dead
She ran, she ran so far away and she was always hated; thrown mud or rotten apricorns at and insulted.
Brianna one night was all by herself sitting on a beach, and she was tired; ever since she could remember as a child nobody liked her; now in her late teens everyone still hates her.
She felt her life didn't matter, that she was just cursed to always be disliked and hated that nobody would ever care about her.
She felt like her entire existence did not matter, like she was just a fucking joke that should die so she wouldn't have to suffer anymore.
The more she stared at the ocean the more death seemed like the correct choice, not like anyone would miss her; not like her existence even mattered, she was alone and would be forever.
"Hey..." Said a male voice.
Brianna turned around and saw a dizzy Spinda walking towards her.
"Oh uh hey..." Brianna frowned.
"What you doing here? It's very late ya know?" Spinda asked.
"I don't have anywhere to live, so I just roam around, I was thinking to myself a bit... I guess I spaced out..." The Dedenne replied.
"You have nowhere to live? Oh that's terrible!" Spinda frowned.
"Yeah... What about you?" Asked Brianna.
"Oh I was out drinking with my boys, but I guess I got too drunk and wondered off hehe I'm a crippling alcoholic..." Spinda was very dizzy.
"Oh that's not good.. the nearest city is in Coumarine... How did you wonder so far off?" Brianna asked.
"Idk man the beer does some crazy shit hehe.." Spinda giggled.
"I guess that's true.." Brianna gave a small smile.
"If you have nowhere to stay, help me find my way back home and you can crash there for as long as you need!" Spinda smiled.
"Wait don't you... Hate me?" Dedenne asked him, she was very nervous.
"Hate you? Why would I hate you?" Spinda looked very confused.
"It's just, everyone seems to dislike or hate me for some reason... Do I was afraid you'd hate me too..." The Dedenne looked sad.
"Uhhh nah bruh, I just met you I don't really hate you? Weird they would hate you tho, you don't seem that bad, what's there to hate?" Spinda asked.
"Well... I'm ditzy and uhhh fat." Dedenne frowned.
"Uhhh you're a bit chubby around they edges but like whatever am I right? Names Fuji, yours?" Fuji asked.
"I'm Brianna Wickers." Dedenne replied.
"Oh gosh using last names too haha fancy one aren't ya? I'm Fuji Trébol, glad to have meet ya tonight must've been fate! Come on help me find my way home and you can crash I'm sure my girlfriend doesn't mind." Fuji smiled.
"Girlfriend?" Brianna asked curiously.
"Yeah, she's also a Spinda we work at a dancing school; teaching the others how to stay healthy and have fun at the same time!" Fuji chuckled.
"That's so cool!" Brianna smiled.
"Yeah! I think things will look much better for us now that we have meet!" Fuji smiled.
And things did change; for Fuji at least... Things changed for the worst.
First of all his girlfriend finally broke up with him, not only was he and alcoholic but now she brought a random girl into their small home; and she also hated her for some reason.
Fujis ex girlfriend left the house so at least Brianna and Fuji had it to themselves, then Fuji was fired from his job, apparently his girlfriend lied about him being inappropriate to get revenge on him for keeping the house.
Then Fuji tried cheering up by introducing Brianna to his friends, but they all seemed annoyed or irritated by her simple presence, they all stopped being friends with Fuji.
After he couldn't pay rent, he tried moving back in with his parents; they would've allowed him back but they didn't want a random disgusting looking stranger to live with them; no matter her sad story the parents just couldn't help but feel very annoyed by just staring at her.
Brianna told Fuji it was okay, she would live on the streets but Fuji refused to abandon her; so they both lived in the wild for a while.
It was rough, food was scarce, Brianna messed up a lot in scouting and collecting food and well everyone seemed to hate her other than Fuji.
Brianna bad luck also seemed to endanger Fujis life, random seemingly bizarre coincidences kept happening like pianos falling from the sky and trees randomly collapsing always endangered Fuji.
But again he refused to leave her.
"Woah that was a close one eh, hehe not sure where that one came from." Fuji smiled at the gigantic boulder that had apparently fallen from the sky.
"Why, just why do you keep hanging out with me... You know it's dangerous, you know deep inside everything bad that happened to you is because of me!" Dedenne cried.
"Brianna..." Fuji frowned looking at her with his spiral eyes.
"Because of this... This stupid curse I have that nobody seems to like me! That I'm always a screw up and a loser! Why do you stay with me!?" The Dedenne sobbed as she fell down on the ground.
"You could say it's because of my contrary ability that I've liked you or you could say it's because I wanna help you out and give you a fair chance in life; pick either one you believe is right and keep sticking by me cause whatever you are going through I promise I won't let you experience it alone, as long as you're with me." Fuji smiled at her.
Brianna cried and hugged him; all her life absolutely everyone hated her, she did mistake after error, bad luck after adversity after misfortune; she was just cursed to always be a screw up and to always be hated by everyone.
But she had someone by her side now, someone who was willing to endure the hardships with her no matter the danger.
"Fuji... I love you..." Brianna hugged him.
"I love you too Brianna." Fuji hugged her back.
The Dedenne and Spinda hugged for a while as they had no home, no food and many problems would definitely come to them soon.
Months passed and Fuji was always a step away from death; however due to being away from poke-civilization he stopped drinking therefore was cursed of his alcoholic tendencies.
Brianna had also married him and taken up his last name; leaving behind her old last name from her family and now becoming Brianna Trébol, things were difficult but manageable; nothing could go wrong-
"Wow Brianna look I found some ripe berries!" Fuji smiled at her who was a bit further away.
Suddenly the berries randomly turned into cherry bombs and blew up point blank on Spinda.
"FUJI!!!!!" Brianna screamed in horror as she ran at him.
The dizzy panda had third degree burns and was bleeding, missing two limbs his right arm and left leg.
"...ahh.. oof.. I think this is it Brianna, heh we dodged death as best as we could right..." Spinda smiled at her weakly.
"No! I can get you to a hospital! We can think of something!" Brianna was panicking, she ran around looking for berries to heal her husband but tripped on a tree root.
"We both know your curse will make the path you take to the hospital dangerous and deadly, it's too late for me love just... Promise me you'll always keep your cheery demeanor, you aren't awful Brianna you're a wonderful, kind pokemon and I regret not being able to help you sooner..." Spinda then got weaker and weaker until he stopped breathing.
Brianna cried holding her dead husband, she was all alone again; she had just lost the only one in this world that gave her a chance and because of her stupid curse she always placed him in danger.
She was the reason he was dead, she was the reason he was dead, she was the reason he was dead was all Brianna could think of right now.
His life was great before she met him, and she ruined it for him; Brianna hated herself more than she ever had, she might even hate herself more than anyone else hated her.
Not because she was ugly or dumb or fat but because she took the life of the only person she loved.
Brianna cried in frustration and anger as she wanted to destroy herself for what she did; but she couldn't she made multiple promises to Fuji when he was alive to never give up and to never let the sadness or anger consume her.
Brianna was alone for weeks, wondering around aimlessly.
Brianna was all by herself again staring at the ocean at night time; just her alone with her thoughts on the sandy beach.
Nobody cared about her, nobody liked her, she was cursed, she was alone and would be forever...
"You know staring at the night sky at like four AM is kinda pathetic right fatty?" Said a male voice.
Dedenne looked angry and turned around, she saw a fat man levitating he had white gloves and a pumpkin head.
"You're one to talk..." Brianna sneered.
"Ayeeee yooooo what's with the attitude little rat, I didn't think the writer would give you some balls of steel to talk to me that way." The pumpkin headed man smiled at her levitating closer.
"Just leave me alone." Brianna looked pissed off.
"Awe does the little mouse not wanna chat? Hehehe..." The Pumpkin teased.
"I said fuck off! I'm out of here..." Brianna yells at him.
"Woah that's not the way your husband would've wanted you to act, you know how he loved you being the nicest mice around eh?" The pumpkin creature told her.
"How.. how do you know that! Have you been stalking me!?" Dedenne felt creeped out.
"Maybe a little." The Pumpkin smirked at her.
"Ugh just... Get away from me or you might get hurt!" Brianna warned him as she stood up and began to leave.
"You do know your absolutely awful bad luck does not work that way right?" He smirked at her.
She paused in her tracks.
"What did you just say..." She turned around.
"Murphy's law; it states that anything that can go wrong... Will go wrong... Sounds familiar?" The Pumpkin demon had a devilish smile.
Brianna felt chills go through her body.
"Ever since you were born you were cursed to always be hated, to always have everyone despise you and to have you fail hilariously all the time, mistake after mistake, error after error your clumsiness just made everyone dislike you even more I bet you already figured out this cannot be coincidence or your own pokemon error but it is in fact a curse laid upon you..." The Pumpkin demons fun and quirky voice became cold and sinister.
"You... You cursed me!?" Brianna was horrified.
"HA! OF COURSE I DID! The world needs chaos to balance out the normally mundane and I was given permission to pick someone to be given this... Gift, I picked you out of billions of other pokemon, why? Because I felt like it lol." He laughed.
"You... You ruined my life!!!!!" Brianna used a thundershock attack but it went right through him.
"Probably, oh well if You gonna attack me I guess I won't tell you how there is a chance you could... Lose your curse." Pumpkin grins.
"What?! You can remove it." Brianna asked; the sun was finally coming out and it was slowly turning into daytime as it began to dawn.
"I'm the one that gave it to you, of course I can remove it and give it to someone else but you'd have to do something for me~" the pumpkin winked at her.
"What do you want me to do? You wanna rip off my arms! Melt my eyeballs, fley my flesh!" Brianna yelled at the demon.
"Sheesh relax chubster, all I want is you to join my super fun reality TV shows that are parodies of other shows! Its totally meta." The Pumpkin told her.
Brianna weighted her options she didn't have anywhere to live, no food, and she was all alone what did she even have to lose by trusting this creepy guy.
"Fine, I guess I can give it a try." Brianna told him.
"Perfect, trust me you were literally made for this, I mean it." The PumpKingKing gave a sinister cackle as he snapped his fingers, and teleported her somewhere that would be as chaotic as he is, you could even say... a Kalos Khaos.
