The young make takes a deep breath. Doing what he could to calm down as he worried for what the professor would see. He tries to tell himself over and over that this was a necessity. Though allowing someone in, allowing such vulnerability? Razz looks away when asked to bring their professor back in one piece. Something he wasn't sure could be done seeing as how the memory that haunted him still left him a mess. "I'll... try..." is all he can give as his eye begins to feel heavy. [break][break]
It isn't long until he's asleep and the pokemon help them enter the start of what felt to be a never ending nightmare. [break][break]
[break][break]
It's dark for some time, at first possibly seemingly like nothing had occurred. Just fast asleep, but there is a nervous breath, a hitch . You can feel your hands shaking as you're nervous for what's to come. You tell yourself that you’ve rehearsed this, that things would go fine because everything else was a shit show anyways how could it get worse? With one more assurance to yourself you finally open your eyes and enter. [break][break]
Around is a lab seemingly not too different from anything Zenji has been in. Wiring machines, computers left on continuing to try and calculate something, everything is cold. Most seems normal until you look at the tubes near the walls, which seem to contain disfigured pokemon. Probably the biggest clue that this was no ordinary lab in Hoenn. [break][break]
[break]
There is only one other person in the labs right now and he is paying no attention to you. “Ummm… sir?” a young voice asks, what seems to be your voice. Or at least the voice of the one whose memory you're invading. You go ignored as you walk closer to the man sitting in his chair staring at the large screen seeming to play back an experiment that had gone wrong. There is a pokemon screaming in pain as something is being done to it. Something being injected but you choose to ignore the video having been there for the experiment earlier. “Sir…? Dad?”[break][break]
“You’ve been dismissed for the day Raziel, go home”[break][break]
On instinct that has been both figuratively and literally beaten into you. You want to obey as your body stops in its tracks and wants to just turn back. To listen, but that's no longer on the table. “I… I have something… something that I want to talk to you about sir,” there is a clear struggle to get your words out. As if even asking to speak to the man went against everything you’ve been taught.[break][break]
“It can wait for-”[break][break]
“No it can’t!” you yell frustrated at the continued dismissal, though as quickly as that frustration was there it left. Pure dread is all that's left in your chest as finally your father looks to you with his cold judging eyes. But you’ve come this far, and for once you don't wait for your father’s permission to speak. “I don’t want to do this anymore, I’m tired of capturing pokemon for your experiments, I’m tired of hurting people, and…and…” as if you’re a broken record you can’t seem to go past that until the other speaks. [break][break]
“And what Raziel?”[break][break]
You swallow in fear at the cold, venomous tone, afraid but you had expected this. You practiced this and you needed to get it all out no matter how much it hurt. “And I’m… tired of Rocket,” You aren’t looking at him you say this. You try to get out how you don’t have anything against the family, and how you didn’t want to betray Rocket but you don’t get the chance to get far as the man’s fist connects with your jaw. Not even realizing he had gotten up as you’re on the floor with your head spinning.[break][break]
Raphael is saying something but you're stuck on the floor as the man is kicking you while you're down. Litterally, all while calling you ungrateful, a fool, and more because how dare you think that you could just say you’re tired and not expect something like this? The worst part about it all is that you take it. Just using your arm to protect your head the best you can as you shrink because you’ve never done anything else before. It's always been forbidden and you took it because it's all that you knew how to do, so you were just going to take this beating like all the others and forget the whole thing. [break][break]
As he picks you off the floor ready to continue until suddenly a pokeball opens and your father is sent flying across the lab from a psychic blast. Falling to your knees as you’re suddenly let go, confused as to what happened. Just to see that Meowstic had released himself of his own accord to come to your aide. “Wha… what are you…” you huff as there is no understanding of why your meowstic would do this. Nothing but shock at seeing your father across the lab picking himself up and brushing off what the Meowstic had done. Because going against either of his parents?[break][break]
It simply wasn’t done. Until now it seems.[break][break]
Your father chuckles, almost amused how you want a fight and in your head you're conflicted. Because you know this is probably the only way you’ll finally be free, but you didn’t want this. The only reason you have to bring out pokemon now to defend yourself is because your Meowstic defended you. Attack after attack your father’s pokemon aim at you, forcing your pokemon to try and take up a defense. Unable to do much else as you’re not giving proper orders because you’re being hesitant despite your father clearly aiming his pokemon for the kill. [break][break]
The first casualty comes when his Froslass comes at you attempting to freeze you, yet your ivysaur gets in the way. Freezing into a block of ice, and with another attack the block is sliced in half with the grass pokemon inside. The same pokemon THEO BECKETT gave you as you and for a second his words flash in your head. ‘Your father doesn’t love you.’[break][break]
Your Salazzle is able to force the ghost away but you’re trapped in the mess that the war between both yours and your father’s pokemon have created. And you're growing more and more scared as all this continues. Your father is close now thanks to the opening and there are tears in your eyes from having just lost one of your mentor’s gifts. From the way things have escalated so much, and your confusion as to why your father would go this far. You step back and end up tripping up, falling on your arse as you see the Pyroar come to his side. [break][break]
“It's said that we only gain wisdom through suffering, and tonight I intend to make you very wise."[break][break]
And with that an OVERHEAT is sent your way, and you’re trapped and able to do nothing but watch as your father, the man who has been protecting you for so long, is now seemingly trying to kill you.
