Now, this is my first time writing a romance story, so try and cut me a little bit of slack, but if you guys are going to leave a review, just be honest and feel free to give me a few pointers to help me out. Either ways, I hope you guys enjoy.
Team Rocket HQ, Kanto Region, 7:30 PM
Darkness, it is what we fear even when there's nothing in it, it is what we try to avoid even though it is everywhere. Darkness… is what SHE sees.
Despite being recently born into this world, she is already making herself familiar with her surroundings sensing everything and everyone that was in the room with her. She heard everything: the voices, the thoughts, even the heartbeats of everyone that was around her, the scientist observing her.
Suddenly, a shattering sound startled her awake.
"Damnit Sheryl! You woke it up!" One scientist yelled at the female one who dropped her coffee mug.
"Come down, Joseph. We all knew it would wake eventually." Another replied.
"But this too soon! We-" however he was interrupted when the tank burst open sending glass shard everywhere as she fell onto the floor panicking.
The guards wearing riot gear with the Team Rocket 'R's on the chest plates aimed their guns at her ready to fire if needed.
"Don't kill it! We'll have to start the whole process all over again if you idiots do. Then your butts are-" He was interrupted a second time when one of the guards aimed his shotgun at his head.
"Shut up." The guard said plainly. "It's bad enough that you guys don't even pay us that much."
"Look!" Sheryl said pointing at "it" who seemed completely relaxed.
Unknown to the guards and scientist, what caught her attention was another presence, one that gave her sense of ease and relaxed her from the fear and confusion she was just feeling. Despite it coming from the room next door, it was still the strongest that she has felt. Now completely calm, she looked around her surroundings and observed the scientist. Like any other child, she was curious, not knowing what the scientist were as this is the first time she has seen humans.
But as she continued to feel the presence, the more she wanted to get to the source of it, so she crawled towards the door. But was stopped by the scientist.
"I think it's time." The second scientist said picking her off the ground. "Come now everyone, let's introduce Mewtwo to her future master."
"Her?" One guard asked simply.
"Yes, unlike Mewtwo's "parent", this one right here has a specific gender. But that's just a minor detail." He explained nonchalantly. They all entered the room surprising the other scientist.
"Oh? Our new pokemon is awake?" One of the scientist asked.
"Sure is, and the boy?"
"Right here." He stated pointing a small (human) child who had tan skin, short black hair and bright green eyes around Mewtwo's age who she recognized as the calming presences she felt. "He woke up an hour ago. But now he's fully awake and fresh out of the tank. Any questions?"
"Yes actually, can one of you get a janitor for our room? this one had more of a… "rude awakening" let's just say." He stated making the others confused. "Anyway now that both test subjects are awake, let's see what happens." He then placed Mewtwo in front of the human child and take few steps back as they brought out their notes.
The human looked at the pokemon with complete wonder, seeing how this is the first pokemon to have an encounter with. To him, she looked kinda odd but was still nice to look at: She had a head and tail that resembled a cat of somesort while also having some human like hands, feet, and body. Mewtwo Continued to stare into the boys eyes,to her they were perhaps the most beautiful things that she has ever seen.
Now, even closer together, the boy held Mewtwo's hand surprised on how smooth it felt, while Mewtwo played with his hair, trying to understand what is and how it works. At that moment, cloned pokemon pulled his hair making him yelp in response. Through their mental link, she also felt pain immediately knowing what she just did was bad, causing her to feel guilty.
The boy sensed the negative feeling and crawled closer to her, pulling her into an embrace surprising the pokemon. The feeling was odd, but it was also nice so returned it making the boy smile.
"Well, this quite a start." One scientist said with the others agreeing,
"Have you forgotten that these woke already!? They're both toddlers and they don't even no how to fucking walk yet!"
"Someone should really wash out your mouth with soap." One scientist remarked.
"True, because of them waking up sooner than scheduled they're both still in their infancy mentally speaking. But if my math is correct: The genetic coding should catch up in about 24 hours and will they will both begin to age like regular humans." The first scientist concluded. "And for Arceus's sake Joseph stop swearing, we have two children right here."
"What should we do with them?" Sheryl asked adjusting her glasses.
"We'll start things out simple tomorrow, that's when they do learn how to walk. When that's out of the way will get to training and see if they have the killer instinct or not."
"If not?"
"And if they don't well don't, then they're no good to us."
"So swearing around them is too far but actually killing is alright?" Joseph questioned. "To be fair though, you do have a point."
"Thank you Joseph. Guards! Change of plans!" The scientist called out getting their attention. "Prepare a second in one of the rooms. Considering how the two are interacting, I think it would be best to have the test subjects bunk with each other. We'll bring them to their room when you're done. Do it and we'll pay each of you a sixty dollars weekly to make up for the lack of payment."
"Yes Sir!" They all sound off then left to set things up for the children.
"SIXTY A WEEK!?" Sheryl panicked. "Michael are you crazy!? We're not a bank!"
"No but it'll stop them from quitting. Besides, if everything goes right and I'm sure that they will. Then we have created the ultimate weapon and user. Money will be the least of our worries."
"Well I hate to sound like Joseph. But again: If not?"
"Then we'll have to start over like he said, besides we can all learn from our mistakes."
"Well I hope so." Sheryl said clearly not wanting to have to do the whole cloning process again.
And that was Chapter 1! Well I mean it's a start (no pun intended), I have been really excited to do this story for a long time and I would like to personally thank CelfwrDderwydd for giving me a chance to do, and I apologize for taking so long to get started. Until Next Time…
