| - I was dragged across the dark tunnel. Other creatures that occupied the tunnel gave me stares that would shatter a wall. I was beginning to think I was not welcome here. The black Latias who dragged me seemed both annoyed and amused with my behaviour. Loaded to the teeth with armor, weapons, guns, grenades, a combat knife, and one scythe, I could sense war was near. Was it? "Well here she is...resting, but she's fine" The Latias said as I stood up. I peered into the small room. It was lit by a small fire, and I could only make out Helga's serpent-shape in the light. I also saw something else. "Go see her, she'll enjoy your company" The bird then shoved me into the room, and shut the door without hesitating. I scoffed and dusted myself off from the dust I collected when I was a drag-cart. The cracking of the fire made the room seem calm, I walked over to Helga's bed, and bent down. It was hard bending down in the armor, so I sat down completely. Looking at her shut eyes, I gently pressed my hand against her face. She woke up. I smiled as I saw her illuminate, scarlet eyes. "Morning" She lifted her head up quickly, shocked to see me. "T-tim?!" She whispered excitedly. I nodded back. "Who else?" With a quick movement, she lunged her head at me, resting her head on my chestplate. I hugged her back, petting gently. She then looked at my armor, then up at my face. "...what's...what's up with your armor?" I waved my hand in front of her. "It's nothing...really...how's the Egg?" Helga laughed. "You mean how's the kid?" For some reason, I wasn't surprised, but I was very happy. I looked over at her belly, and there curled up was a smaller Seviper with white furr and red markings. It had my claw as it's tail, combined with the sharp edge of Helga's tail. I looked back at Helga. "Name?" "Bradley" Helga replied, smiling. I then looked around for other occupants, none. "Where's your hot-headed bro?" I growled a bit at "bro". Helga rested her tail on my shoulder. "He's fine, that's all I can say" I nodded, then stood up. "Alright..." I looked back at our kid. I couldn't believe the excitment that was stirring up in my stomach. "Bradley..." I whispered. All the sudden the door swung open, hitting the wall with great force. I can hear the sounds of explosions outside and gunfire. At the doorway stood the Latias, she looked very angry. "COME ON!" She screamed, and flew off before I could refuse. Bradley woke up crying, but Helga comforted the kid by curling around him. She too was as scared as him; as scared as I. "Make sure you find a safe place to hide if trouble gets here!" I said, walking backwards towards the doorway."Be safe honey!" Helga screamed, I nodded and ran down the corridors with great speed. The suit really helped me run, I wasn't able to run as fast I was running now. I ran past other injured creatures, some of them I knew from the welcome. I smirked at the thought of them in pain, and kept running. They deserve it, I thought. I met up with the Latias, who was grouped up with several others. She was giving out commands as I arrived. I saluted at her in respect, and listened to her plan. "Just a re-cap, hold your defensive positions here, here, and here" she said, pointing out places on a small, old map of the area. "Tim, you'll be pairing up with Marshtomp's team" I looked at my leader in the eyes, he didn't show any welcome. I looked back at the map. "You'll be over here, at north-east point of the base. That's where we keep all of our ammunition. Once we lose that area, it's over, kapeesh?" She stared at me as if I was the leader. "...yes ma'am..." I sighed. She then closed up the map. "Good, now let's go" She flew off with her group, I followed my group. On the way towards the position, the cave rumbled due to explosions. The tremor of explosions worried me deeply about Helga. But in order to keep her safe, I have to fight. Fight to survive. "Get your weapons ready! Check your ammunition!" The salamander cried, taking out a rifle. The rest of the creatures did the same in response, so did I. Pokemon was sure more violent in real life than in the cartoons. We stepped by a huge steel door that seemed to weight tons. I was positioned up high with two other creatures, where I was safe. Luckily of course. The explosions started to get louder as I could hear the sound of gunfire. Then the roof came down in front of us. Ropes slid down first, then humans. Humans, in armor. I was shocked to see a human in the flesh. Hesitant on the first shot, I lowered my rifle. I could only see the humans taking down each creature one by one, I was glad. "What are you doing rookie?!" A creature screamed beside me. "AIM DOWN YOUR SIGHTS AND FIRE DAMMIT-" His words were silenced by a bullet. My bullet. I aimed at the other creature, and killed him off before he could react. The creatures then began to lose their positions without sniper support. The salamander fled like a coward, away from his men, who were mowed down in seconds by hailfire. The humans stopped firing and scanned around. Then they advanced towards the door. "We're lost the ammunition!" the salamander screamed in my com. "Darn it! Where's that Zangoose? He was supposed to be helping you!" a female voice screamed back, it was the Latias. "I...I don't know-" "YOU LEFT YOUR MEN BEHIND? MARSHTOMP GET THEM BACK, OR YOU WILL BE TORTURED TO THE POINT WHERE YOU'D BE BEGGING FOR MERCY!" the female voice said demonically, it sent chills down my spine. "I-I'll go back madam-" "No need...listen here bird...you lost what you cherish...every damn creature in this facility will die a horrible death, by my own kind" I said evilly, with a smirk. "What's gotten into you?! You're not a human-" "Oh believe me, I'm more human then you think" I took off the earpiece, and crushed it in my paws. The humans broke into the room, and all I know, is that hell has begun. For the creatures that is. The urge to kill is rising, I finally realize why I was sent here: to kill off every one of these Pokemon to the bitter end, excluding Helga and Bradley. "Don't move" a static voice said, I heard the clicking of rifles. I was surrounded by these humans, but I showed no surprise. "I'm one of you, why are you targetting me?" I said calmly. "Don't mess around with us, rat" One of them said, with a click, they prepared to fire. In an instant, I drew my scythe, and stabbed deep into the gut of that soldier, then spun around, killing his buddy by slicing his head off. I finally lost it, my urge to kill was at high. I jumped down from my position, right into the center of the humans. They all drew their weapons, aiming at me. I smirked evilly as my scythe glowed red. In a flash, I lunged.
