Mewtres, an unknown future (a pokemon story): Chapter 3

 

Mewtwo’s POV

After the fight

I was critically wounded. I fled to the only safe place I could think of, Gary’s lab. The sudden movement to the lab was enough to leave me unable to stand.

I crumpled to the ground outside his door, calling out weakly for help. I never had been truly hurt before and this agony and pain was unbearable. It hurt so bad I couldn’t even use Recover.

As I closed my eyes from the pain, I saw Gardevor and Gary run out, coming towards me. I saw their hands reach for me before everything went black.

“It was too damn powerful,” I complained. I had been miraculously healed by Gary’s rejuvenation chamber that he used to heal wild Pokemon.
Gardevor still used Mimic to copy my Recover and speed my healing.

“Mewtwo, can you please hold still. If you move too much, the wounds will open, Gardevor said as I sat up.

“He’ll be fine, Gardevor. Mewtwo can you describe this Pokemon?” Gary said. He ran his hand through his hair, which had streaks of grey in it. He was amazed that I could be wounded this badly.

“It called itself Mewomega. Meowth said it was my clone, but somehow it changed. It was black and red. It had long, pointed ears. He had a snout and looked like a large dog on two legs.

“People say that I have the most savage heart among Pokemon, but they’ve never met this thing. When a human interrupted our fight, Mewomega blew him up. No pokemon is like that,” I said. It was pure evil. If anything, it was happy when it killed that man, but wasn’t about to say that. I didn’t want to worry the two of them.

All three of us looked up when the door was opened. Ash Ketchum slowly walked into the room, his Pikachu on his shoulder. The years had not been kind to Ash, he had developed weakened muscles do to a bad heart and had a broken leg from a Pokemon battle. He used a cane with a purple Pokeball, a Master Ball.

“Are you alright, Mewtwo? I heard you were hurt.”

“Yes, Ash, Mewtwo is fine.” Somewhere along the line, Ash and Gary had become good friends. Ash helped Gary when he wasn’t trying to get a hold of his son, a boy I’ve yet to meet, who had ran away to begin his own Pokemon adventure. Gary said that Ash’s son had eventually joined Team Rocket, proving to be indispensable to Vincenteo.

“Good, good, good. I was worried. I can’t believe someone got the better of Mewtwo.”

“Neither can I, Ash. I had never lost a fight like that before. Nor had I ever seen a pokemon so intent on finishing the match to the death.”

“Death? You mean you think he was trying to kill you?"

“I believe so. It appeared that he found great joy in taking lives. If circumstances were different, I would suggest the three of us go after him together. I’m well aware that you ad Gary can’t leave and I’m too wounded to fight for sometime. We need a newer generation of trainers to combat this Pokemon. But I doubt even the Pokemon Masters could beat him.”

Gardevor placed a hand on mine and sent some healing energy into me. I looked at her and she smiled as she read my mind. I told her I was thankful she was here. I loved her.

Ash pulled a cellular phone out of his pocket, a model that had no screen, and set it on speaker.

“Hello?” Ash said.

“Dad? Dad are you there? I got your message. You said there was an emergency. What is it? Did you get hurt?” A voice said. It sounded like Ash, only it was not a voice that was happy. It was cold and used to having authority.

“Yes, I’m here Craig. I’m okay, I’m not hurt. It was Mewtwo. He’s badly injured.”

“I’m not hurt that bad,” I interjected.

“Dad, I don’t go by Craig anymore. I’m now called Bain. Dad are you talking about Mewtwo, the legendary Pokemon Old Man Giovanni created,” Ash’s son said.

“Yes it appears someone made a clone of Mewtwo and it escaped, calling itself Mewomega. It’s planning on destroying everything by the looks of things; it enjoys the thrill of killing. Me and Ash are trying to find a way to stop it,” Gary said to Bain.

“I’ll help you’ll need me if you want to take this thing on. I’ll be right there,” Bain said, shutting off his phone.

Gardevor looked at Gary, Ash then me. “Bain is right. You three couldn’t stop Mewomega. Gary, you need to stay and care for the Pokemon. Ash, with your leg, you’d only be a liability and Pikachu isn’t as young as she used to be. But we’ll manage. Somehow, we’ll stop Mewomega.” Gardevor said, putting more energy into me.

“Yes, I will stop Mewomega, Gardevor. It has to be me. He’s my copy and I need to beat him. Even if it’s the last thing I do.”

Bain’s POV

Same time

“I’ll be right there,” I said, hanging up the phone. I would be seeing Mewtwo for the first time; that in itself was reason to leave.

“Where will you’ll be going? You never take a vacation and you’ve never been sick. Makes me curious where you’d need to go,” Vincenteo said, just entering the room. He was tired, stressed from running the two halves of the business; the legal side and the part that conducted the real work. He looked like his father, aside from having his mother’s, Madam Joys, eyes.

“Vincenteo, do you remember the day we met? I saved you from a flock a Spearow and Fearow that were attacking you. You said you’d do anything for me, remember? I’ve never asked anything from you.”

“Of course I remember. You became my best friend on that day. I’ll always remember that. So what is it you want?”

“A friend of my father’s is hurt. He’s Mewtwo, the Pokemon your father help create. I need to find the one who tried to kill him. Will you help?”

Vincenteo thought. He had to do what was best for Team Rocket, even if that meant not helping me; Team Rocket had been his father’s legacy. “I’m sorry, Bain. I can’t help you. The money it would take to find him would hurt Team Rocket in the long run. If I left to help you, I’d have to leave the X Division in charge, and the person below you would be the Golden Mask Marauder, daughter of the Iron Mask‘. Like her father, she’s a truly twisted individual. I’m sorry but with these odds, I cannot help.”

I knew that business with Vincenteo’s family always came first. I just thought he’d try to help, at least. “Vincenteo, Mewtwo is your father’s creation. The thing that hurt him must be even stronger. Professor Gary said that it would want to destroy all things that are in its path.”

“I’m sorry Bain. I want to help, but Rocket must come first. I must protect our fortunes.”

“If this thing gets its way, they’ll be nobody left. You’re money will be meaningless!” It was a cheap shot a Vincenteo, but I needed his help.

“Meaningless? Team Rocket meaningless? I cannot allow that to happen,” Vincenteo said. Vincenteo took out a master walkie-talkie, set to reach all other members of Rocket. “Attention all Rocket members of all ranks. I’ve just been informed on an attack upon our fortunes. All members must find a way to headquarters. Bring your strongest Pokemon. The X Division will lead you all. I will join in the upcoming battle. Go!” I was Agent 1 of the X Division,
Vincenteo’s most trust and best members of Rocket.

“Vincenteo, if you’ll be going into battle, bring your best team. This thing almost killed Mewtwo, the strongest of all Pokemon.”

“I wouldn’t have brought anything else. Go get your team and we’ll move out. You have all of Rocket supporting you.”

“Thank you. I’ll go and get my team.”

We shook hands and walked to our rooms.

In my room, I opened a case full of Pokeballs. The top row had six Pokeballs in special gold containers.

I opened them and took the balls out. I missed my team, they were my favorite Pokemon. I hooked five of the balls to the inside of my jacket. I stared at the last Pokeball.

Inside was my first Pokemon. I had caught it before I met Vincenteo. I found it in the wild and fought it with my bare hands. Since then it had evolved and became my strongest of my Pokemon.

I expanded the ball and threw it. White light flew out of it. Aggron stood in my room. I had it since it was Aron. Man he’d grown a lot.

Together, Aggron following behind me, we walked outside.

I let all my Pokemon out, allowing them some rec. time.

Ty, my Tyranitar, grappled with Aggron as soon as she was released. The two often trained like that. It was fun to watch them struggle against each other.

My Nidoking went to lie down under a tree. He was followed by Arcanine.

The Steelix just wandered around, carrying Pincer on her back.

They were my favorite team. They were powerful alone and unstoppable together.

I saw Vincenteo coming and told him to release his team, giving them some fun before we go into battle.

Vincenteo’s team consisted of his Metagross, Salamance, Houndoom, Nidoqueen, Rhydon and his favorite, Ninetales. When they battled his Pokemon worked in partners to finish off opponents.

Metagross and Salamance were a great combination, effective dominating land and air. Nidoqueen and Rhydon were both impressive Pokemon, intimidating their opponents. Vincenteo’s favorite combination was Houndoom and Ninetales. Like Old Giovanni, Vincenteo’s pokemon could use some attacks their wild counterparts couldn’t. Like his father’s Persian, Vincenteo’s Ninetales could use Thunder.

The pokemon played and relaxed while me and Vincenteo made plans to go to Gary’s lab in Pallet Town.
