Don’t know what happened to the ask but @drtesla2426 asked about Lelu’s powers falling into the wrong hands and so
But with the whole “Aggressive things acting docile” thing she has going on with her, it doesn’t work on humans. But now that I think about it, that’s probably the reason why Lisa and She didn't trust me and my family at first… and then there was my douchbag of a Dad… but as for the whole, “power falling into the wrong hands” I honestly wouldn’t know how that would happen… but I would prefer to not risk losing my sister to find out.
These two would be an interesting pair!
A little Alien Child and a human vampire hybrid
These three would be good friends I think
It’s interesting, Lelu has the opposite effect where everyone acts like her new best friend and aggressive things act docile and friendly. Where Abby makes normal people around her homicidal, but dangerous things are friendly to her as well.
And with how many people die at the SCP foundation in just a week; Lelu would be able to see dozens of ghost!
What do you think would happen if Lelu met these two?
There’s something in the factory!
I was having a tea party with poppy when she told me to hide and she heard something coming. I didn’t question it and hid behind some boxes. The next second, I heard Poppy screaming! I came out and chased after her, despite Lisa and She. When I fell down a big hole I hurt my leg, I started crying. I didn’t know where I was, I don’t think I’m allowed to be this deep into the factory. I didn’t recognize anything around me, I didn’t know where poppy was or if she was okay! I just wanted my sissy, I wanted kissy, I wanted Huggy! I was so scared. I don’t know how long I was sitting there crying, but all of the sudden I heard some lady giggling. I looked up and saw a pink spider lady! She had Poppy in one hand poppy was trying to tell me something but she seemed too scared to. She said her name was mommy long legs. I was super scared because I remember my sissy said that lady spiders eat their husbands. But she seemed… nice enough, she could see Lisa and She, but she was super rude to them and acted like they weren’t there. She seemed to be super worried about me, where I came from, what I was doing here, and if I was okay. I just wanted my Poppy! She gave me Poppy and then picked me up. She took me back to my friends, who were worried about me. But the good news is Huggy Is talking to me again! “Lelu where have you been!? We were worried! Why are you with Her!?” And a bunch of questions about my leg. I don’t think I like mommy long legs much. She called my friends irresponsible for losing me and letting a precious child like me get hurt. She wouldn’t even let Huggy or kissy hold me! I asked her If kissy could hold me, but she wouldn’t even listen to me!
Cat Bee and Boogie Bot seem to be the only one that missed her. They say she just loves kids and hasn’t seen any in over 30 years, and she was responsible for babysitting the children that came to the factory, like orphans or the employees’ s children. That, and she hasn’t been the same since she lost her baby and her husband. Baby Long Legs and Daddy Long Legs. Those bad adults took them away one day and she hasn’t been the same since. I feel bad for her… “I know what it’s like…” I said, “I lost my Mama and Daddy…” I ended up almost being hugged to death by the guys. Poppy made me Pinkie Promise to never leave her alone with Ms. Mommy. She says that Mommy will trap her back into the case! I pinkie promise!
Hoo! Finally done! I love how this looks!
Thank you all so much! I didn’t imagine that I had already reached 100 posts so soon, but I’m so happy you all loved my drawings and stories!
Far from home
Aaliyah
In the humid fall, when the breeze of autumn blows over the summer season, is when she came to this planet. Sometimes at night you’ll wander through the plains, and you will see a light. The light is so colorful. You think it’s just some teenagers having a party, but there is not a soul in sight… at least not one from this world. There’s these colorful orbs that float and glow. In the center of this bizarre attraction, you see a small figure sitting in the tall grass giggling with delight. By the sound of the tiny voice, you guess it’s a girl. But she was no ordinary girl… she didn’t come from an ordinary planet either. You disregard the strange impossible scene in front of you and call out to the girl- thinking she might be in trouble- but you weren’t prepared for it. She hears you and turns around. In the dim light that the strange orbs around you provide, you can see her skin texture; it looks rough yet soft at the same time, it had a soft blue tint to it. Her eyes were entirely pupil, no iris, no sclera, just pitch black pupil. Whatever she was… she wasn’t human, no matter how humanoid she may look. She didn’t have a nose, there was a smooth surface that peaked out just a bit, but there were no nostrils. She stared at you for a second, before her face broke into a contagious smile- despite that it’s slightly terrifying with the small shark-like teeth in her mouth- and waved excitedly at you. She crisscrossed her legs and patted the grass next to her, inviting you to join her. You think of yourself as crazy, yet you find yourself sitting next to the little alien child seconds later. She rips some grass from the earth and starts munching on it, she holds some strands out towards you. You politely declined.
Kanna made some friends today 😊
I had a lot of fun making this little comic. And for those of you that have been following me for a while; if you’re curious;
Yes those are the guys from my post about the squad
Nap time;
I headcannon that Kanna likes to use uncle Shu as a pillow sometimes
Shoutout to @dialovers-lover-xoxo for helping me with Kanna’s outfits and my art block 😅😂
Bonus:
I’ve recently reread my favorite book Coraline, and it made me think of the movie version as well. So before I go poof for a week, (because my family and I are going to the beach for a week 🏖) I made a drawing of Kanna and Coraline with the Beldam in the background. It also reminded me of what the ghost children said about how the Beldam preys on lonely unhappy children. And if there was anyone that would be the perfect prey for the Beldam… it would be Kanna
Actually now that I think about it… I wonder what Kanna’s other family would be like.
Let me tell you about a dream I had a few nights ago.
Warning ⚠️ this has mentioned abuse and hinted kidnapping family deaths betrayal and murder along with some homophobia
I didn’t sleep well for almost the whole night I woke up at 2 in the morning, and just tossed and turned for the rest of the night until around 7am I could finally sleep. But when I did, I had this really weird dream.
The dream was about two families. The first family was a family just like you and me; there was a husband named Lucas, a wife named Care, they had three children. A son named Edward, a daughter named Lysa (with a y), and then there was the youngest, sweet little Andrew. The second family however… looked like a normal and esteemed family from the outside… but on the inside they were monsters. There was a husband named Marlin, but something didn’t feel right about him from the start, he was always smiling no matter what happened, like he was looking at you like you were a piece of meat. A wife named Stephanie, she was beautiful and an ex model, but she was very vain, cruel, and thrived off of other people’s misery, even if it was her own family. A daughter, Eve, and finally the youngest, a son called Matt.
The Dream starts off in an old cartoon style like; He-Man, Shera, and Scooby Doo. Cartoons that aired in the 1990s or in the early 2000s. The two families are very clearly shown to be enemies and not like each other at all. The cartoon starts out as normal, with a running gag of Marlin and Cheetos, but something doesn’t feel right… no matter how much Marlin expresses his distaste for the Howards, he never stops smiling. I’m always uneasy when Marlin is on screen.
The episodes start out normal with some silly gags here and there. But then after the first or second episode… things start to take a dark turn as the screen goes black. When the screen comes back; it’s not in the old cartoon version like it was before, it’s now in some pixilated video game with the main character being a middle school girl with pigtails. And the weird thing is, this girl isn’t a part of the Howards family or a part of Marlin’s family. Actually… she didn’t appear in any of the episodes… not even as a background character.
I guess I should have mentioned this sooner, but… I’m not me in my dream. I’m in this dark room, just looking at this old TV I remember seeing in the window of an antique shop once. When I look behind me, there’s this locked door with a dim light shining through the cracks. I look back to the TV that’s trapped in the lonely room with me. With hands that clearly aren’t mine, I reach out and pick up a video game controller, and start playing the game.
(Yes, I know these drawings suck, but keep in mind that this is the first ever time that I have ever attempted to make pixilated characters. So please be nice in the comments I know they’re crappy! 😂)
It’s not clear what the point or objective is until I walk the girl over to this sheet of paper on the ground. It says at the top of my screen; “4/16 notes”. This seems out of the blue but I continue to collect the girl’s notes. In each panel of the background; there’s a black truck of some kind with some guy inside. The man had a stubble beard, a red cap with the word “UPS” on, and a smile on his face. He was just sitting there staring at the girl in every panel. Wherever the player went the black truck was present in the background somewhere. Some people would be confused by this, but for some reason… I knew who it was; it was Marlin… Marlin was stalking this girl.
After I collect all of the notes, the top of the screen reads; “Time to go home; 0/1” When you go to the street that the girl lives on, that’s when it happens. Marlin’s truck pulls up and the girl stops, the screen cuts to black and all you hear is a blood curdling scream. What happened to her? I have no clue. I don’t know if he killed her, or if he kidnapped her.
When the screen pulls up again, we’re back to the old cartoon style episodes that we started with, but Marlin is less and less present in the scenes and Stephanie seems more and more aggressive when she harasses the Howards. After each episode, another mini game pulls up, and each time you play as a different victim of Marlin. One is an elementary school boy who gets lost on his way home from school. Another is a young, new, stressed out high school teacher. The third one is a high school delinquent. And the final one is another middle schooler, who is in 6th grade and was running away from bullies. All games end in the same way; with Marlin’s truck pulling up next to them and the screen turns to black.
After each mini game and before the next episode comes on; there are black text-boxes, and what they say vary. “My lord, thank you for sending another one of your meek little lambs. I will continue with your work my Lord. Thy will be done.” and; “Why? Why does she always get everything that I can’t have? Why does she get to have the life that I deserve?” along with, “What did she do to deserve the life that I was supposed to have? It was supposed to be me. She doesn’t deserve that life.” And; “I’ve seen your sign my Lord, I understand; you will receive another lamb soon. Thy will be done.”
After the fourth victim, things take a dark turn for the Howards. Sweet little Andrew Howards… has been found dead with his skull bashed in. His death devastated the family. Care became a shut-in, she locked herself away and barely left the house after the death of her baby boy. Every time Edward and Lysa leave the house, even if it’s just when they go to school, Care freaks out and begs them not to leave the house. Lucas is bitter, angry, and vengeful to bring his son’s murderer to justice. But at the same time he neglects what is left of his family.
I automatically thought it was Marlin… but it’s not him… it can’t be him, is what my head kept telling me. Stephanie is shown having a toxic and unhealthy relationship with her children and having insane expectations of them. The episodes get more weird when it shows Stephanie taunting Care multiple times. She is clearly very happy about Care’s depression. Eve and Matt have stopped harassing the Howards ever since Andrew’s death.
A year and a few months pass and Lysa’s sanity begins to wear more and more thin as her family falls apart by the day. Lysa has tried to stay the same, but everyone around her has changed. With her brother sneaking out of the house under their parent’s radars. Her mom growing more and more depressed and clingy with her son and daughter, along with developing schizophrenia. And as for her dad… he grows barely attached to his family because he’s too busy with his mind only set on revenge. Lysa is growing tired of no one acknowledging her existence and people not caring, she’s growing tired of her once perfect and happy family becoming more broken by the day.
Meanwhile Edward has been sneaking out of the house to hang out with some bad friends, with him growing into a rebellious teen towards his helicopter parents. I don’t remember how, but I do remember seeing Edward being bloody and bandaged. But it wasn’t his dad, or his sister patching him up, it wasn’t his mom or his “friends” either… It was Matt. But those were just flashes.
And I don’t remember exactly how it played out… but Edward and Matt had been seeing each other. As in “SeEiNg” each other. Yes… I was slightly surprised as well. Especially when my dirty mind went so far as to… uh… well… I didn’t see anything but I did see them in a bed… under the sheets with each other… so basically they-
Yeah… that 🤭👆
But while having a healthy relationship with Matt helps Edward improve his mental state enough to where he starts to feel like his old self again, he had completely forgotten about his little sister, who was suffering just like him. After Lucas finds out about Edward and Matt’s relationship, (and I don’t know if this is actually what happened) he apologizes for being absent and the only time when he’s present in the kid’s lives, he’s strict and is always hard on them. But… it’s too late.
After Lysa and Edward had a fight… the screen fades to black… when it comes back on; Lysa is in the 8-bit pixilated mini game, just like all of Marlin’s victims were before. Now we play as her, but this time; there’s no black truck in the background, there’s no Marlin. Which is interesting because this is the first time we play as an 8-bit character, but there is no objects to collect, no task no objective, no truck… No Marlin.
The 8-bit character that is Lysa is shown crying and sad, the player wanders aimlessly around, until they go to a spot on the map that wasn’t accessible to the player when they played as all the other characters before. In the area, is a bridge, it starts to rain and as she walks along the bridge; a text-box appears for Lysa’s speech. “Why did you have to die Andy?” *walks across bridge* “I miss you as well… but your death has broken our home…” *walks across bridge more* “…and mama…” *walks more* “… and dad…” *walks a few more steps once more* “I can’t even recognize Eddie anymore…” Lysa stops and faces the bridge railings, all of the sudden the screen glitches as another text box appears, as Lysa goes closer and closer to the edge of the bridge until she is stood on the railing of the bridge. “I don’t think I can take this anymore… I’ve always been too weak for this world…” *the screen flickers* “Home doesn’t even feel like home anymore…” The screen flickers more, and as it does, Marlin’s black truck pulls up to where Lysa is… then it cuts off.
When the screen turns on again; it cuts to a missing poster of Lysa Howards. This is all really confusing to me, because out of all of Marlin’s victims, Lysa is the only one to get a missing person poster.
It was chaos in the Howards house. If not for Matt; Edward would have become a shut-in like his mother. Care was sent to a mental hospital, after multiple attempts of taking her own life, and Lucas was convinced that his little girl’s disappearance was Marlin’s doing.
Speaking of Marlin; at his home he is shown to be an extremely religious man and it is also revealed that he and Stephanie only see each other as business partners instead of husband and wife. Stephanie is revealed to be unhappy with her life and her deranged husband, always envious of Care who had everything she could only dream of having. Marlin also sheds some light onto the way he sees his victims to his daughter, Eve. He views all of his victims as necessary sacrificial lambs as offerings to his lord. He doesn’t believe he is doing anything wrong and is acting as a holy man.
Marlin and Stephanie both find out about Matt and his relationship with Eddward. They beat him while yelling homophobic slurs at him. Eve stands up to her parents and tries her best to protect her little brother. Now this part… I don’t really remember, but one thing lead to another and by the end of it… Marlin ends up accidentally killing his own daughter. Now Marlin sees this as a major sin, especially when she was not an offering, and whatever threads of sanity he had left is gone.
Matt had ran away to his partner. Talking about how desperately he wants to end this cycle of abuse. Matt and Edward weren’t present anywhere else in my dream after that. But I do remember that Lucas and Marlin had some kind of epic showdown in the 8-bit mini game style again. With the player having a boss fight.
By the end of it, Lucas announces that he will murder Marlin like he had murdered his son. Marlin then gives Lucas a confused look as he laughs and breathes out, “I was never the one responsible for your children Howards… not even little Lysa.”
Flash into the future; Lucas Howards is arrested for the murder of Marlin Devon, who’s body was not present at the scene. According to the news; he was also charged with kidnapping and murder of Andrew and Lysa Howards, along with Domestic Violence against Care Howards who is still in mental treatment to this day. Even though there wasn’t nearly enough evidence to back up the claims… Lucas was found guilty, (the aud- diditly dang- dacity!) as the screen fades to black.
When the screen cuts back on, you’re back in the 8-bit style world playing as a little girl who has Matt’s eyes and Edward’s hair. Text boxes appear, showing that Matt and Edward are calling for the little girl named, Abby. Abby goes with her Dads as the player makes them walk to the same spot on the bridge where Lysa had disappeared all those years ago. Where her body has still never been found. Abby drops the flowers at the bridge as the music stops… and a black truck pulls up. The screen turns to static with a text box reading… “Thy will be done…”
Looks like Kanna got into Yuma’s Garden… Again.
Kanna Sakamaki
Age: 8
Father: Kanato Sakamaki
Mother: An escaped sacrificial bride
⚠️Trigger warning: mentions of trauma and abuse⚠️
The pig was handmade by her mother before she was born. If you touch it, she will most likely murder you.
Has telekinesis. Although after her last Psychic tantrum, she keeps most of her emotions bottled up.
Has over sensitive hearing, but also super hearing. She has to take medication for headaches daily
Her mother didn’t survive childbirth, and Kanato had no idea of her existence
Has been in 42 foster homes and been abused both sexually, mentally and physically.
She likes uncle Subaru the best, in her opinion he’s one of the nicer ones.
She still has a scar on her body and eye from her last foster home
Her grandfather learned about her and took her out of the system. Afterwards he dropped her off with his sons so Kanna could meet her father.
Unlike her family, she’s not sadistic or cold hearted. She loves animals, and is a very sweet and considerate girl.
When Kanato has his temper tantrums- or when there is any yelling in the house at all- she hides under beds or under tables, thinking she’s going to be hurt like in her past homes
At first she’s really scared of her dad, with the way he acts and often hides from him when he clearly expresses that he does not like children. But after a while she really does love him and wants him to love her in return… but she doesn’t know how.
Calls Yui “Aunty”
Is easily bribed with sweets and sweet fruit 🍎
She stumbles into the Mukami’s garden, and quickly grows fond of Yuuma, to the point where she follows him around like a baby duck following its mother
We brought Poppy back to the others. Cat Bee and Kissy were overwhelmed and started crying. Kissy picked us all up and gave us a huge hug! Poppy thanked me multiple times for taking her out and freeing her. She said she wanted to know all about me. But the whole time while everyone else was super duper happy to see Poppy… Huggy was just behind us the whole time, he didn’t say or sign a word. I think he’s mad at me. It’s been three days since we brought Poppy home and he still won’t talk to me… I think I should apologize… no I should apologize to him I did break his one rule after all. I still feel really bad, but Poppy always does her best to cheer me up. I know I should also ask Poppy about Goggles’s friends, but I can’t stop thinking about Huggy… maybe I’ll ask her after I apologize. Wherever I go, Poppy is with me. And wherever Poppy and I are; Huggy is always watching us, mostly Poppy. Oh! Sissy says Dinner is ready, I have to go! Bye-Bye! 👋

Sleepy Lelu
First time doing something like this but I think it turned out good. I made my oc Lelu because… well she’s just adorable, so why not?
I found this cute Picrew and now I want to see you all doing it too~
So I’m tagging @ask-ruki-mukami @ask—shin—tsukinami @strawberry–bride @maria–bride @yumikosan @yourlocaltea @lured-into-wonderland @adragonamongstvampires @solarstellarstar @mukami-kuron-mrsadisticcat @eri-talks @korisuu @ask-maki-mukami
♡＼(￣▽￣)／♡
Reunion
Poppy is finally out of her case and greeted with hug from Boogie Bot. But will the others be just as happy and enthusiastic as Boogie? Huggy kept Lelu away from Poppy’s room for a reason, a reason that his sister and friends don’t know about. What does Huggy know that the others don’t?
I decided to go into the flower door! The inside wasn’t like the rest of the factory, it looked like the inside of a dollhouse! Boogie Bot hitched a ride in my backpack, he was so excited! He wanted to see Poppy so badly! I was playing Hide n seek again with the others, so hopefully it will be a while before they think to look for me here… I still feel super bad about lying to Huggy and the others… but I have to know. What is behind this door?
When we looked around, it was pretty empty, there were closets around but there was nothing inside them. Then Boogie and I came across another door, we opened it. And behind it, has got to be one of the most prettyful dolls I’ve ever seen. She seemed to be asleep inside this case. All of the sudden, Boogie got out of my backpack. He started hopping up and down yelling excitedly, “Poppy! Poppy! Poppy! It’s you! I’m here! I’m right here! It’s me! It’s Boogie!” So this was Poppy!
She’s so prettyful! I knocked on the glass, seeing if she would wake up… she didn’t… then I remembered what Lisa and She told me about sleeping people and how it would be rude to wake them up. But Boogie told me to open the case… so I did. Poppy opened her eyes and looked really shocked to see someone here. I hope she’s not mad at me for waking her up.
Before I could say hi, Boogie tackle hugged her and started crying. “POPPY!” He said, “Oh thank Elliot Ludwig! You’re alright! I missed you!! We all missed you!” Poppy was pretty shaken up, but she smiled and hugged Boogie back. “I missed you too Boogie!”
Lisa and She says there’s something that’s not right about her. But if Boogie trusts her, and if the others trust her, than I will too. Poppy likes having tea parties and she likes to stay clean. Her eyes look a little funny though, they look so real! Poppy is super thankful to me for letting her out. She keeps saying that he keeps putting her back… a big bully of the factory. I wonder who she’s talking about.
About time that Poppy got into this picture huh?! Now all the happy times are about to come to an end with the things she will attract… was Lelu right to let Poppy out? Or should she have just left her there? Who is coming next?
Stay tuned~
Lisa and She
I can’t believe it took me this long to draw these two! They’re the main protagonists bodyguards for crying out loud! But in comparison to my first drawing of them, (which I will not show lol! I’m too embarrassed by it 😂) I am very proud of these guys! And in case you’re wondering, the red stuff dribbling out of She’s mouth is blood 🩸 She tends to cough some up from time to time.
I hope you guys like them! They are here in all of their glory, and what they really look like when they aren’t in Lelu’s drawings.
Hurt their Bean and they WILL kill you! 😅
Today I was wondering in the factory, when I met a man. He has red stuff on him and a white coat. He doesn’t have legs. I said hi and I think he’s nice… but he says a lot of confusing stuff. He doesn’t seem to remember what his name was, according to him he’s been in the factory for almost 30 years! He seemed to want a name, so I called him Goggles! When Goggles asked me or Boogie Bot if we’ve seen any other people other than him, he was sad when I said no. When the girls asked why? He said that he used to work in this factory, but an accident happened and everyone disappeared, but he got a note telling him that his friends were still here. The note said “Find the flower”… Wait! I told Goggles that I saw a door with a giant flower that matched the one he described to us. He was so happy when he heard that! He told me to be careful to not run into Huggy or any of the other toys, but I didn’t know why? They were all so nice! They’re my best friends! He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. But I always did wonder what was behind the door… but Huggy told me not to go there. Goggles told me that I needed to be careful of anything with a large claw and I needed to find someone named Poppy. Again with Poppy! Who’s Poppy?! Lisa and She don’t think I should go… but Boogie says that Poppy was one of his missing friends as well and if she was on the other side of the flower door… then he wanted to see her again.
I don’t know who to listen to… or if I should break Huggy’s rule… I don’t want to make him sad… but at the same time I want to know what happened to Goggles and his friends…
So I will be continuing the Lelu saga now that the second chapter of Poppy Playtime is out! And I can finally get back to it, now that I have ideas for the story!
Seriously though, if I could get some asks about Lelu, that’d really help my story line.
Just did a quick little drawing. A part of my supernatural world. I’ve actually been debating wether or not I should create a new blog for my supernatural ocs, but I probably won’t because I’m a very lazy person.
*sniff* *sniff*
Kubfu remembered someone dear to him that day… someone who had tried to protect him and keep him safe, someone who had saved him all those months ago… but he was too weak when it came to giving her same protection that she had given him.
His trainer and her friends know that he knows something they don’t know what… How does Kubfu know this violent apparition? What is his past? How did someone so loving, caring, and protective become this terrifying thing?
Stay Tuned for Pokemon Ghost Story Part 3!
Here’s something I did for an assignment. I finally got to do an assignment on my iPad and I was like 🤩😆🤩😙🥳
Ha! Ha! Anyways, I just thought that I’d share it with you guys and see what you make of it!
Lola
Age: 19
Birthday: July 29th at 6 am
Likes: Quiet, peacefulness, flowers, feeling peoples different skin textures, playing the kalimba, Shgaraki
Dislikes: People talking about her father, loud noises,, violence, bullies, her old school, abusers, Endeavor, herself
Bilingual in Spanish, English, and Japanese
Quirk: Corpse flower
Her hair is almost as long as rapunzel’s and anyone that touches her by the hair with their bare skin will almost immediately have a heart attack or seizure, and die. She is also able to disintegrate anything her hair touches, almost exactly like Shiggy’s quirk.
The rose on top of her head is actually a part of her body and every time she kills someone or loses control of her emotions, it emits a rotting flesh smell just like a real corpse flower. It also symbolizes what she feels
When she’s sick or unwell, the rose starts to wilt. 🥀
Rotting flesh= angry/sad
Lavender= scared, or trying to relax or calm down
Fresh Roses= Happy
Breaks down in tears when someone is killed from her quirk.
Sometimes when she has mental breakdowns, the hair has a mind of it’s own and extends and/or unravels itself to destroy or disintegrate everything around her. The LOV made a special room for her to lock herself in so she doesn’t kill everyone at the base.
She snuck into the sports festival, and after hearin what Endeavor shouted at his son when he used his fire, she knew almost instantly what must be going on behind the scenes… after all… her father was almost no different.
Her father and mother were both pro heroes. But once Lola’s quirk manifested, she accidentally killed her mother, and her father abandoned her. After years of being bounced around and abused in the foster system, she saw how the people in the LOV almost took out Endeavor with the nomu, she wanted to join… thinking people are oh so great when really they’re nothing but wolves in sheeps clothing (or I guess in this case; Villains Wearing A Hero’s Cape) don’t deserve the fame and glory they get, when they themselves do villainous deeds that most of the time produce what society labels as “Villains”
That, and… she doesn’t think there’s anything else for her to do with the kind of quirk she’s burdened with.
Everyone at the LOV was surprised when this young girl presented herself as a person who wants to join the most wanted terrorist group in Japan. The boys even placed bets on how long it would take her to leave.
Shigaraki refused at first, thinking someone as sensitive, weak, and fragile as her, would last a day in the LOV
Twice and Toga thought that she was cute, and wanted her to stay.
Shigaraki saw way too much of himself in Lola and after 48 hours of not being able to get her out of his head; he finally let her join.
Pokémon Ghost Story Part 2
Nessa stepped out of the bathroom stall, and looked in the mirror. She was in a fancy silky pale blue kimono, with cyan seaweed and coral, along with some blue sand dollars. Nessa was in one of the Wyndon park’s public bathrooms, getting ready for another shoot, this time to be on the posters for the upcoming annual Pokémon festival. Nessa felt herself smile, despite her uneasy feeling. She looked very pretty.
Nessa jumped as yet another light flickers above her, ever since the Gala, and since she saw the missing poster; Nessa jumped at almost every little thing every time she’s in Wyndon. She felt her pulse going down as the rational part of her mind calmed her down. There was a knock on the door outside. “Babe!” Raihan's voice called through the door, “you alright?” Nessa put her traditional festival clogs on as she answered. “Yeah! Everything’s fine! Tell them I’ll be out in a second!” Nessa remembered that day, in the Wyndon Stadium locker rooms.
***
“Ness, you do realize how this sounds right?” Raihan said to his girlfriend. “Yes! Yes! I know, you probably think there’s something wrong with me but-“
“Babe, this is why I told you I should’ve been the one driving-“
“You, were far too gone to be driving! Or should I tell you about all of the… things you said you wanted to do when we got home?” Nessa muttered, her cheeks flushing quite a bit, remembering the things Raihan said that made her body become hot. Arceus damn! There’s that shit-eating grin of his again.
“Hmm… I don’t know, maybe you could-“
“Or when you ended up breaking a few of the tables with Piers and almost got us thrown out… and according to the papers you also tried to bench-press the chocolate fountain, while I was in the bathroom.” Raihan immediately shut his mouth after that. Nessa continued, “And apparently had a shouting match with a mop and a broom about-“
“Okay, yeah, we don’t need to talk about that, I see your point. But Ness,” Raihan said, his face becoming serious again, “a little ghost girl, without any eyes? And more importantly, you almost crashed! You could’ve gotten hurt, or worse; Killed!”
“That’s exactly why I’m still shaken up from that, but Raihan, please! I need you to trust me when I say; I saw a ghost!” Nessa persisted. Raihan crossed his arms and looked at Nessa, like he wanted to believe her, but at the same time; the rational part of his mind was telling him the same thing it told Nessa. “I’m not crazy, Raihan!” Nessa exclaimed. “I never said you were,” Raihan said, “babe, I believe you, I believe what you saw, but you also have to take into consideration about what could’ve actually happened. Like the ice on the road and the frost on your window, could’ve just been some ice type Pokémon, there’s a whole bunch of them just outside of Wyndon,” he paused, “and then there’s the alcohol, it could’ve been messing with your mind and make you see things.”
Nessa had enough of hearing that, whether she was the one telling herself in her mind or from another person. She grabbed Raihan by the arm and marched over to the locker’s bulletin board, there was yet another one of those missing posters, just like the one outside. “I’ve been telling myself that for the last week and a half, Raihan. But my rationality was thrown out the window when I saw this,” Nessa pointed to the poster of Gretchen, “That’s her… that’s the little girl I saw on the side of the road, and in my car… I thought that she was just a hallucination as well, but when I saw this out in the front of the stadium… well this is just proof.” Raihan looked at Nessa, then at the poster, then back to her. “And,” Nessa jumped in, just as Raihan opened his mouth to speak, “I wouldn’t have hallucinated her, because this is the first time that I’ve seen her, with her eyes and not as pale as she was that night.”
There was a long silence… and then Nessa started to get worried. Remembering her last relationship, whenever she lost her last boyfriend after an argument. He wasn’t that good of a guy, Nessa knows that now, but it still kind of hurt whenever he dumped her. There were some rumors being spread about Nessa being in a romantic relationship with one of the male photographers from one of her shoots, her last boyfriend freaked out about it and accused her of cheating on him, even when Nessa only told the truth by saying there was nothing going on between them, he was set on calling her a liar.
Nessa’s worry clouds her brain, until she wonders. What if I lose Raihan over this? Nessa felt a warm hand clasp hers. She looked up at Raihan. “Babe, I’m not one for believing in ghosts…” he said, “but I do believe you. Your my girlfriend, I don’t think you would have any reason to make up something like this. I wanted to know what was going on with you and now I do, so, don’t worry… I don’t think you’re crazy.”
***
Nessa smiled small at the memory, glad that her worries were for nothing. Speaking of Gretchen… that’s kind of the reason Raihan was here today at the shoot. Even after their talk, Raihan could still notice that Nessa was avoiding Wyndon like the plague, so he offered to close down his gym for the day and be with Nessa for her shoot. “This way so the ghosts don’t get you!” He said outside, draping his arm over her shoulders giving her a half hug. It’s nice that Raihan was here, even if you can’t do anything about ghosts, (as far as Nessa knew) she felt safer knowing Raihan was there for her.
Nessa came out of the bathroom, as the lead photographer, ushered her over to her make-up artist. It was a busy day, people and Pokémon alike were running around, trying to get ready for the shoot, and looking for wild Pokémon to take part in the shoot. Raihan sat over near the snacks for the employees, feeding his Goodra as he watched his girlfriend from afar. “Alright! Everyone get in position! We’re starting now!” The lead photographer shouted.
***
The day went by fair, the shoot was going well, and no little ghost girl in sight. Nessa posed with some of the studios Pokémon, like the editor’s cute little Mudkip, the Make-up artist’s Surskit, and even the studio’s Inteleon. Nessa could not stop laughing when Raihan’s Goodra decided to steal the spotlight and photobomb Nessa with a wild Dewpider. “Ha! Ha!” Raihan laughed, “he’s always liked you. Guess you’ve been held back long enough, huh buddy?”
“Goo!” Goodra exclaimed as he hugged Nessa. The couple, along with most of the staff, laughed as the Pokémon couldn’t help but be affectionate. Raihan was forced to return Goodra to his Pokéball- after the photographers got a few more shots of him with Nessa, of course- to avoid any more interruptions with the shoot.
Lunch rolled around, finally. Nessa and Raihan took a walk near the docks. “You look super-hot in that kimono you know,” Raihan complimented, wrapping his arm around her. “Thanks…… what do you want?” Nessa said, knowing Raihan, this may lead to something… “What? I can’t compliment my girlfriend?” Raihan said, as he trailed his hand down lower to her ass, all the while wearing that dumb, smug, smirk that Nessa still can’t decide if she loves or hates. “I know you Raihan, and if you try anything while we are at this shoot, I swear to Arceus!” Nessa pointed at him, as Raihan held his hands up and off of her ass. “Alright jeez!” He said, laughing.
“Ugh! Just keep it in your pants, is it really that hard?” Nessa asked, rolling her eyes.
“I think you know the answer to that,” Raihan said, as he grabs her from behind.
Nessa felt her face flush as Raihan’s lips kissed her neck, trailing up to her jaw. “Raihan!” Nessa swore as she pushed him off, ignoring the part of her that wanted him to continue. Arceus! He drives me crazy! Nessa was about to remind Raihan that they were still at a photoshoot and she didn’t want any marks to draw people’s attention, when she felt the bottom of her kimono being tugged.
Nessa looked down to her feet to see a little Marill. Oh hey! Isn’t this the one from the last time I was here? “Marill!” The Marill cried in delight from getting her attention. “Hey! I remember you!” Nessa said, as she bent down to scoop the little ball up. The Marill pressed itself against her upper chest and snuggled into her, purring in delight. “Hahaha!” Raihan laughed, “water-types really do adore you, don’t they?” Nessa looked up from the little Marill that was making itself comfy in her arms, and smiled.
“Nessa?!” They heard the photographers call. “Well, sounds like it’s time to get back to work,” Nessa stated. She looked down to the Marill in her arms, wondering if this is going to be a repeat of last time; where after Nessa picked the little guy up, he didn’t want to let go of her and ended up clinging to her leg until it got hungry enough to go look for food.
Nessa chuckled at the thought, and tried to put him down. But all of the sudden, Marill started to shout it’s Pokémon cry, and flailed it’s little arms as it wore a panicked expression on its face. “What the-?” Raihan stared at the panicked Pokémon. “Huh? What is it? What’s wrong?” Nessa asked them. What the Frostless? We were having a good time just a moment ago and now he’s acting like he just remembered something important. The Pokémon jumped out of Nessa’s arms and onto the dock, tugging at the bottom of her kimono, before scurrying to land and stopping just as its feet hit the dirt. “Marill! Mar! Rill! Rill!” Marill cried as it hopped up and down.
Nessa inched forward, holding up the bottom of her Kimono slightly so she didn’t trip. Once Nessa reached the end of the dock, the little ball scurried further, stopping and turning around to jump up and down, shouting it’s Pokémon cry once more at the couple. Does it… does it want us to follow? Nessa exchanged a confused and slightly worried glance with Raihan, both thinking the same thing.
All of the sudden, there was a blast of fire coming from somewhere in the trees! Nessa and Raihan jumped back as the explosion subsided. The Marill shouted more frantic, “Rill! Rill! Rill!” as it scurried towards the location of the explosion. Without a word, Raihan ran forward, scooping the little Marill up as he headed off towards the explosion. “Raihan!” Nessa shouted, worried, “wait!” She ran after her boyfriend and got her pokéballs ready. Wondering how what was supposed to be a day of photoshoots, ended up like this.
***
When Nessa arrived at the scene, the first thing to greet her was no one other than the Galar champion herself, with her Cinderace, Flamey, fighting some stranger with a red R on his chest. Now I get it. That explosion must’ve been Flamey’s Pyro Ball.
“Flamey! Watch out!” Glory cried out to her partner. Flamey didn’t get the message in time as he was hit with the R stranger’s Weezing’s toxic sludge. “Scor!” The rabbit Pokémon cried out in pain.
“Flamey!” Glory cried to her partner in concern. Flamey looked at Glory and gave her a reassuring smile.
“C-Cinder…” Flamey winced, poisoned from the move, but still able to fight.
“Ah, thank Arceus,” she sighed in relief.
“Hey!” Raihan shouted, making both his and Nessa’s presence known. The battle paused as both teams looked at the pair. “What is going on? Gloria? Who is this guy?” Raihan asked, keeping his eyes on the stranger. “That guy took a girl’s purse,” Gloria stated, pointing at her opponent, “but unlike most crooks, he left the money alone, but when we returned it to the kid, her Pokémon inside were gone.”
Nessa looked to the man in the R. His sleek turquoise hair shined in the sun as he growled. Nessa felt rage boiling inside of her, if there was one thing she hated in this world; it was Pokémon thieves! Nessa got the pokéball containing Drednaw inside as she stepped forward, but Gloria held her hand out, stopping her. “No need,” Gloria said, returning Flamey to his pokéball and took another out. “Hattie let’s go!” Gloria’s Hatterene emerged from her pokéball, looking a bit grumpy, like she was just woken up from a nap. “Hattie use Psychic!” Gloria ordered. Hattie did as instruct, as she was muttering something in her Pokémon cry. If anyone could speak Pokémon, they could take a swing at guessing what Hattie says most of the time after meeting Gloria’s sassy Pokémon, she was probably saying something like, “what a pain,” or “bringing me out only for battle.” The opposing Weezing fainted with the final blow.
The R stranger returned his Weezing as he quickly turned around and attempted to make a run for it. Oh no you don’t!Nessa thought, as she threw her pokéball to land in front of the stranger. Out came Drednaw blocking his path. “Drednaw don’t let him through!” Nessa ordered. Drednaw growled as the R stranger backed away from it, which, Nessa doesn’t blame him.
Once Nessa slipped and almost went into the lake a while back, which wouldn’t have been a big deal, she could swim incredibly well. But from what Nessa assumed was on instinct, Drednaw bit her arm to hold her up and it pierced right through the flesh, tissue, and crunched the bone to where Nessa went almost two months and a half for it to repair itself. And that was after the doctors had performed surgery to take the shattered bone shards out of her arm.
“Duraludon!” Raihan called, throwing a pokéball behind the thief, as Raihan’s partner emerged. Gloria stepped forward with a determined expression on her face. She was about a foot away from the stranger, when she grasped the front of his shirt and pulled him down to her face. “Give. Them. Back.” She growled, holding out the hand that wasn’t occupied. With a groan, the thief took three pokéball out-with one being a heal ball- and placed it in the champion’s hand.
“Marill!” Marill cried out, reminding everyone of its presence.
“What?” Raihan asked it.
The Marill started repeating it’s Pokémon cry out all the while glaring at the thief. Gloria looked back to him, then to the Marill, then back to him once more. “You didn’t just steal these did you?” Gloria asked him, holding up the stolen pokéballs in her hands. The thief didn’t say anything. To help, Raihan’s Duraludon gave a low growl as it towered over the stranger. “Yeah… good luck getting anything out of me… I’m not gonna sell them out,” he said, his voice being raspy and unsettling. “Them?” Nessa questioned, “there’s more of you?” The thug stayed quiet, while he looked towards Nessa’s direction and smiled, creepily. “Hey! She asked you a question!” Raihan voiced up. Still no response, but he didn’t stop smiling at her, knowing something she didn’t. Are we really going to have to call everyone over here?
***
The sun was setting as the police shoved the thief into the back of the police car as his Herdier partner barked at him. “Well, someday this turned out to be, huh?” Raihan said, still holding the Marill. Marill was looking around aimlessly and looking gloomy. Nessa had changed out of her kimono and into a sunny tank top and a denim skirt. The other Gym leaders had arrived to check the place out and try to find the “others” this thief was talking about.
“Who was that guy anyways?” Nessa asked Raihan. He tore his attention away from the sad little Pokémon in his hands. “You don’t know?” Raihan questioned, Nessa shrugged, “that R on his shirt was a dead giveaway… that guy was a part of Team Rocket…” Nessa felt worry creep its way up her body. Those guys steal Pokémon… and are known for their crazy experiments as well… if those guys were here…
“Miss Nessa? Mr. Raihan?” A small voice called, snapping her out of her thoughts. Nessa looked up to see a women and a little girl who seemed to be in junior high holding a small Skitty in her arms, a Rookidee perched on her head, and floating by her side was a Flabébé on a red flower. “Yes?” Nessa acknowledged. The little girl held her Skitty closer to her chest as Nessa could hear it purr louder. “The champion told me you two helped get my Pokémon back, and I just wanted to say…” Nessa could see tears welling up in the child’s eyes. “Thank you so much! I was so scarred I was never going to see them again!” She smiled at them as Flabébé floated closer to her trainer, attempting to comfort her. Nessa smiled back, “Your welcome, they’re alright, right?” She held a hand out to the Skitty as it pawed lazily at the hand. The little girl nodded affirmingly. Raihan smiled as he patted her head, before pulling away when the Rookidee attempted to peck at his hand. The mother of the child smiled and nodded at them mouthing the simple words, “thank you”.
“AAAAAAHH!!!”
The whole park seemed to go silent at the sound of the bloodcurdling scream that echoed in the air. Nessa quickly scanned around, counting her staff members and the gym leaders around her, breathing a sigh of relief when there was no one she knew missing. The Skitty in the little girl’s arms began looking in a certain part of the trees and begun to hiss at that certain spot. The Rookidee held its wings out, as if it were to sense something was about to come out and he would have to take care of it. The girl’s Flabébé only floated closer to its trainer, attempting to hide behind her, as it- along with its flower- started trembling. “Mom,” the little girl looked up at her mother, who held her close, “w-what was that?”
There was a long silence, nothing but police attempting to create a game plan of what to do, and who’s scream that was. “Kubfu!” Gloria called after the little, karate teddy bear. “Rill! Rill! Rill! Mari! Marill!” Marill wrestled out of Raihan’s grasp and headed off with the Gloria’s Kubfu… in the direction of the scream. “Marill! Wait!” Nessa called out, giving chase and running after the two Pokémon. “Ness! Babe!” Raihan exclaimed, getting up and following her.
Nessa found it pretty difficult to follow two things so small. It was actually pretty amusing in a way, she’s pretty sure that Kubfu even stopped to pick the Marill up when he felt like he was going too slow. Nessa stumbled over a stump or two as wind blew her hair into her face. Nessa wasn’t even sure where she was going anymore, just as so long as she didn’t lose the two. “Nessa!” She heard Gloria’s voice call from behind. “Ness wait up!” Raihan called after his girlfriend.
Nessa could see the lake as she could see they were running out of forests to run through. Nessa saw the two stop, and so, she stopped. Nessa greedily gulped as much air as she could into her lungs, before looking up… only to wish that she hadn’t…
On the ground near the water, was two bodies… dead bodies… one was male, the other was female. They had the same turquoise hair as the man they had just arrested, wearing the same clothing as well… their mouths were split opened and the male was missing his lower jaw. The female’s body had cuts and scrapes and scratches all over her body, with her right arm all mangled and twisted. The male’s neck was twisted almost all the way around, with a hole through his chest where the R should have been on his jacket.
Their pokéballs were laying there, like whoever had committed this crime had ransacked them after they died. The pokéball were just lying there on the ground untouched, the way they were arranged almost made it seem like it was left like some kind of gift… some extremely fucked up gift.
Nessa couldn’t breathe… she felt her breathe stop, despite the fact that she still didn’t have enough air in her lungs from sprinting for as long as she has. The smell was so putrid, Nessa covered her mouth to prevent herself from vomiting up whatever was in her stomach. Her eyes watered at the stench.
She looked down at the two Pokémon who were frozen in their tracks, staring at the gruesome corpses in front of them. Marill hid behind Kubfu, whimpering and trembling in fear, while Kubfu tried to act tough and brave, but Nessa could see how he quivered. “Hrk!” Nessa appalled at both the sight and smell. The two Pokémon looked back, noticing she was there for the first time. And almost immediately, both ran to hug her legs, and hide their faces away from the two corpses.
Nessa suddenly heard short breaths behind her. She turned around only to see her boyfriend and the young champion wearing a similar horrified expression that she was wearing. Nessa looked back to the murder scene, just as another chilly wind blew in her face, spreading the horrible smell.
“Raa!” Kubfu squeaked. Nessa looked down as she saw the small Teddy Bear leave her ankle and ran over to far right of the two dead bodies. Nessa felt her heart stop, as she felt more tears welling up in her eyes from fear. There, under a tree with branches that hung low enough for you to climb on and hang over the water… was a well-loved Buneary plushy. Except it was far more worn than it was when Gretchen had it in her arms that night. This plushy looked to be out here for what looked like months. Nessa thinks she could even see moss growing on some parts of the doll. Kubfu stared for a long time at the doll. “Ra… Raa…” he cried softly, as if he was looking at someone that was once dear to him, lifeless. Kubfu suddenly embraced the doll hugging it tightly, obviously not planning on letting go of it.
As the sun set; Nessa looked back looked out to the lake in front of her, normally it would calm her down, but this time it only spread more fear. Especially since she knew who was responsible for this. Nessa felt her heart pulse as she saw who was above the water… far out in the lake… was Gretchen Moya… with the same brown boots, and sky blue summer dress, with a Buneary plushy that looked to be in better condition than the one that Kubfu was hugging under the tree… floating above the water. Gretchen looked at Nessa for a long while. Nessa didn’t even breathe as the child’s gaze was fixed on her. And then… from where Nessa could see… the child waved at her, with a smile almost as creepy as the man from earlier gave her. Then with a gust of wind, Gretchen vanished into thin air.
“… Gretchen,” Nessa whispered, “what’ve you done?”

Pokémon Ghost Story
Nessa sat her glass of champagne down, and glanced over to the new champion. It looked like Gloria was trying to keep a fight between Bede and Hop from breaking out… again. Nessa found herself smiling, wondering if those two will ever be on good terms with each other, probably never. Although… despite the fact that Bede and Hop don’t get along, they both tend to come to a truce when it comes to Gloria. Hop’s reason was just for typical childhood best friend protection, but Bede’s… well, it was almost like watching a hallmark movie in person.
Opal was sitting at the same table as Bede, watching with the same amused look. He is doing far better though, Nessa thought, ever since Opal took him under her wing, and after that man was put away, he seems so much happier now. Nessa personally didn’t know Bede too well… but even during their short encounter during the gym challenge, she could tell there was some kind of inner demons he was dealing with. It was bugging her for quite some time, and now she’s just grateful that Bede has finally found someone he could consider family.
Bede flinched and looked away as a blush flushed across his face when Gloria cutely hugged him. Nessa’s grin grew wider at the sight. She totally ships them.
“Hey Nessie!~” Of course… she barely had any room to talk when it came to romance. Raihan snuck yet another selfie with his girlfriend. “Raihan! No more pictures tonight, please!” She complained, although a part of her was smiling in amusement. This was what? The eighth? The eleventh picture now? Nessa loved modeling and all, but now it was starting to get annoying, especially since it was all just going to end up on Raihan’s blog anyways.
“What? I can’t take pictures to show the people of Galar what a beauty my girlfriend is?” Raihan said with a grin.
“Not when you’ve been doing it for the entire night,” Nessa did her best not to stare, but Arceus damn! It wasn’t often she got to see Raihan in something other than his regular hoodie and gym clothes. Raihan should honestly consider wearing a suit more often. Raihan looked over to the trio Nessa was eyeing earlier; Bede, Hop, and Glory had all sat down with Ms. Opal and it seemed like the tension was resolved between Hop and Bede… for now, anyways.
“Me and Gordie got $50 on those two getting together by the end of the season,” Raihan stated smirking.
Nessa tore her eyes away from them and looked back to him, a little taken aback, but not surprised. “You guys bet on this?”
“Yeah why? Is that wrong?” He asked cheekily, chuckling as she rolled her eyes at him, “Hey, him and Pierce did the same thing with us and now look!” That she couldn’t deny, even if they’ve only been dating for several months now.
“You act like we’ve been together for a few years, when it’s only been a couple of months,” Nessa sighed.
She should’ve guessed what was going to come out of his mouth next after seeing that shit-eating grin of his. “Hey it seems a couple of months is enough for our little ‘after parties’ if last night was anything to go by.”
Nessa nearly spat out her drink as fluster and embarrassment quickly made its presence be known on her face. “RAIHAN!” She hissed. She swatted at his arm as he laughed almost loud enough to catch people’s attention at the charity gala.
Why did she decide to date the one person who drove her crazy half of the time again? “I really hate you sometimes,” she grumbled.
“Nah! That’s not true! You love me, and you know it,” Raihan said.
“Shut up, Raihan!”
“Make me why don’t ya?”
Nessa responded by a short, soft kiss on the lips. Despite that cocky attitude Raihan liked to display, a kiss or two seemed to be enough to shut him up… for now.
Before Raihan could take yet another photo of them, (this time Nessa was willing) a slow dance song was played. “Hey, wanna have one last dance before this party ends?” Raihan asked holding out his hand. Nessa finished her glass off and took his offer. They were joined on the dancefloor by a couple of other pairs, two of them being; Victor and Marnie, and Sonia and the former champion himself, Leon. Nessa rested her head on Raihan’s chest, letting herself fall into the rhythm and movement of the dance. This night was perfect, everyone here together after months of nonstop work as gym leaders or research, what could happen?
***
And as the party ended… wouldn’t you know it? All of the Sky Taxies were full! Raihan wanted Nessa to take his place on the Taxi, but Nessa had brought her rental car for them to arrive in anyways, so she sent Raihan off, promising to drive safely. Safer than Raihan anyways, he drank far too much tonight to be driving in her stead.
As Nessa got situated in the driver’s seat, she finally noticed Alister sitting right outside her window. “AH! Oh! Hoo!” Nessa jumped. How does he do that every single TIME?! “Um… Hi- Hi Nessa,” Alister stuttered as Nessa rolled down her window.
“Hey, Alister, you scared me there… again,” Nessa laughed weakly, still coming down from her shock.
“S-s-sorry, but- but I had to tell you something,” Alister said.
“What’s up?”
Alister played with his hands for a bit, stuttering and trying to let the words come out. Nessa, like the rest of the gym leaders, knew Alister struggled socially, so she was patient with him. “I- um- I- I’ve been- I’ve been feeling something strange… near a certain area of Wyndon… and it-it’s probably nothing… but uh… I wasn’t going to bring it up to anyone because they were all taking the sky taxies… but uhm- be careful? Please?” Alister asked.
Nessa found it a bit odd… what certain spot was Alister talking about? Where was this specific spot? What was it that made him feel uneasy? One by one, questions were floating through her head. “Okay, thank you Alister, you be careful going home too alright?” She said reassuringly. Alister nodded and waved goodnight.
***
The drive to the hotel Nessa and Raihan booked was a long one. It was currently 1:17 am, Nessa was tired and felt her eyelids were getting heavy with each passing second. Maybe this was a bad idea, maybe she should’ve just waited for one of the Taxi’s to come back. But she was already more than half ways there, not much further.
As Nessa drove in the dark, she felt uneasy as she drove underneath one of the many bridges of Wyndon. Nessa shivered as all of the sudden it was freezing cold. She looked at her thermostat, it was 41 C, Weird… it was just 77 a moment ago… Nessa didn’t think anything of it, and simply turned it back to what it was before.
The drive was more unsettling as Nessa discovered there were fewer and fewer cars on the road with her, and before the water type gym leader could realize it… she was the only one at the next stoplight. Nessa didn’t know if it was her paranoia or if this was the certain road Alister told her not to go down, but the chills never stopped, and now she could feel as if someone was following her, but when Nessa looked in her rear view mirrors, she was the only one on the roads as of right now. Nessa left one hand on the steering wheel, and placed the other on her purse. If anything did go wrong… at least she’d have Drednaw and the others to back her up.
As Nessa felt she was being a bit exaggerative, she focused herself, knowing she would hear from Raihan later if he caught wind that she was scarred. Nessa looked at her GPS, only two blocks away from the hotel. Nessa smiled in relief as this would all be over soon. Nessa felt herself beginning to relax as she drove by the lake, she once did a shoot for, she remembered the Pokémon there well, the sweet little Poliwag, the kind Lapris, and the cute little Marill that basically stuck to her leg for the whole shoot. Nessa smiled, that was also the lake where she used to go with her father as a child.
Nessa pulled herself out of her thoughts, before she got distracted by memory lane. She was almost there, just a little bit more. As Nessa drove under yet another bridge, she saw something that made her slow down… there was a child… alone… on the side of the road… and at freaking 1:55 in the morning! Nessa slowed down, staring, until she came to a complete stop… this didn’t seem right. The child was alone, no adult in sight, wearing a sky blue dress that reached down to her knees, and it was 44 degrees outside!
Nessa wondered if she should call someone first, but out of fear of the little girl running off, she rolled down her window. “Hey, honey?! Kid!” She called out, with no response, “Sweetie! Kid!” Nessa tried again, louder this time, there was again… no response. This time, Nessa blew the horn… nothing… not even a flinch, the girl’s back was still turned away from her. Nessa was a little creeped out, no response or even a reaction. As creeped out as she was… this little girl could need help. Nessa unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car; she was just going to go to the little girl herself. As Nessa closed her door, she looked to where the little girl was… or rather… would’ve been. The little girl was gone.
What in Garentina’s dimension? Nessa found herself worrying now… where did she go? Or was it just her mind playing tricks on her? It was almost 2 in the morning, and she was exhausted. After spending 12 minutes or so calling out for the little girl, there was no one in sight. Nessa chalked it up to her own imagination, blamed her tiredness, and went back to her car, although she still couldn’t shake the worry she felt for the child.
Nessa was only one block away from the hotel, and thought the rest of the way would go without incident. But then came the frost that grew on her windshield way too suddenly, as the streetlamps flickered. It was freezing! Nessa could now see her own breathe in her car! The frost grew and covered the windows and her mirrors. Nessa stopped breathing as she heard a raggedy breath, and looked over to the passenger seat.
There she was… there was the little girl… only now that Nessa could see her face… she wish she didn’t. The girl’s skin was paler than Alister’s, her eyes were empty sockets, and her black wavy hair was all in her face. She wore a sky blue dress with some summer boots, and held a well-loved Buneary plushy in her lap. She just stared at Nessa with those blank eyes of hers.
Nessa saw her in her passenger seat, she screamed as she swerved across the road, hitting the breaks as hard as she could while steering away from crashing. Nessa knew you were supposed to just go with the car, and take your feet off the brakes until your tires touched the roads again, but she did it entirely on instinct! Nessa screamed full voice as she screwed her eyes closed, hoping that her incident in this car would be painless as long as it was over already!
Nessa felt her car stop abruptly as she was finally on the road again instead of ice… her eyes cautiously opened to the size of saucers, taking in shallow breathes as she greedily sucked in air. Nessa cautiously, slowly, and shakingly took her hands off of the steering wheel, still coming down from the shock of her near death experience. When Nessa finally came down from her shock, she patted her entire body, making sure she was still here and alive. She gasped as she remembered her Pokémon, only to breathe a sigh of relief when she saw they were still in their poke balls undamaged in her purse safe and sound.
Nessa didn’t see any frost covering her windows, no streetlights flickering, and when she looked over to the passenger’s seat… there was no girl or her Buneary plushy anywhere to be seen. What in the name of Kyogre just happened?! Nessa knew she should’ve gotten out of the car, maybe she should just walk the rest of the way to the hotel? She should’ve just drove past the little girl… or was that little girl even there to begin with?
Nessa touched the sides of her temples, starting to contemplate if this was all just in her head… maybe she just drank too much, even though she only had two glasses of champagne and wine tonight, but still… maybe this was all just a hallucination… even if she knew that couldn’t be it, because she felt her tires slip off of the road and onto the ice, but this was the only reasonable explanation she could come up with. Nessa thought about what she should do or should’ve done… but in the end her body acted for her and she resumed her driving the rest of the way to the hotel.

It’s been a week and a half since the almost crash scene. Sometimes Nessa wonders what would’ve happened if she had crashed, what would be in the papers? “Famous model and water type gym leader died in fiery car crash” or “Water type gym leader Nessa hospitalized from crash.” Or worse; what would’ve happened to her Pokémon? Nessa shuddered at the thought of anything terrible happening to her beloved Pokémon.
Nessa had decided not to tell Raihan or the other gym leaders about her almost near death experience, just chalking it all up to hallucinations from the alcohol and wine. Nessa had contemplated whether she should tell Alister about the little girl or what she assumed was the spot in Wyndon that made him feel so uneasy. But ultimately decided against it. Nessa wasn’t sure why she didn’t tell her boyfriend or the rest of her fellow gym leaders, maybe out of fear of being told what she’s been telling herself for the past week. But the more time that pasts, the more she is convinced that maybe it wasn’t a hallucination.
Nessa was pulled back to the present when Raihan tapped her leg. “Helloooo?~ Galar to Nessa! You alright?” Raihan asked. Nessa looked at the two other people she was in the flying taxi with; Bea and Milo. “Oh… um… yeah… sorry I guess I just… spaced out for a bit there,” she said. Raihan looked at his girlfriend with a concerned look. “Yeah, ya know, you’ve been doing that a lot lately…” he stated, obviously wanting to know what was up.
“I have not!” Nessa said stubbornly.
“Actually, Raihan has a point,” Bea joined in, “ever since the Gala, you’ve been acting… weird… almost as if you’re not fully here…”
Nessa looked to Milo, who nodded in agreement with Bea’s statement while wearing a concerned look as well. She cringed and mentally scolded at herself for making it that obvious. There was silence for a beat of wings or two, before finally Raihan placed his hand on top of Nessa’s. “Babe,” he said, “something had to have happened on your way back to the hotel that night, you haven’t been yourself since then, and honestly; everyone inside this league can see it… we just want to know what’s going on.” Nessa looked away for a moment, slightly reminded of why she fell for Raihan in the first place. Raihan rubbed his thumb on the back of her hand slightly, waiting for her response. Just as Nessa opened her mouth to speak, the taxi landed with a thud!
“All ashore let’s go ashore!” The taxi man called down laughing. They had arrived at the Wyndon stadium. Nessa looked out her window, one by one, other flying taxi’s that contained the other gym leaders from across Galar had shown up for the start of this year’s season. Nessa looked back to Raihan, who is still looking at her with those pleading eyes of his. Nessa felt a twinge of guilt inside her for making Raihan, one of the most carefree people she knows, worry like this. “Meet me in the lockers after the matches and I’ll tell you,” Nessa said, jumping out of the taxi quickly. Nessa quickly speeding past Bede helping Opal out of the taxi with Gloria and the former steel type gym leader, Peony, inside.
As Nessa was about to go into the stadium, something caught her eye on the bulletin board outside. This board normally contained battle information and battle schedules, but today there was something different. It seemed to be a missing person poster, with contact information and everything. Nessa stepped closer to see who was missing and… felt her heart drop and heard her heart pounding in her ears.
It was the little girl… from the night at the Gala. Only this time she had eyes… beautiful heterochromia eyes, with her right being a pale purple and her other being ice blue. In the photo, the child was cuddling the Buneary plushy that she held in her lap that night, she wore a lavender top with a Milotic on it and blue shorts, with a premier ball clip in her hair to keep the bangs out of her eyes. At the top of the poster read in bright red bold letters:
MISSING!

It’s kind of funny, the sun was out, and if you let it’s warm rays wrap around you… you will feel so warm and fuzzy, but even with the sun out… Nessa felt just as cold as she did that night in the car. She took two little steps backwards, away from the photo… this… this just confirmed… what she saw that night… was no hallucination. Nessa felt the color drain from her face as her breath picked up speed. She didn’t notice some of the gym leaders had stopped to look at her. “Nessa? NESSA!” BONK!
“OW!” Nessa was pulled back to reality once more when Opal had whacked her with her umbrella.
“Ms. Opal!” Bede protested, “terribly sorry Nessa, you can’t take her anywhere.”
“Maybe I should’ve whacked you with this!” Opal threatened holding up her umbrella once more.
“Never mind those two, but Ness… honey? Are you alright?” Melony stepped forward with a concerned look plastered on her face.
“Yeah, you look like you just saw a ghost,” Gordie joined his mother.
Nessa didn’t speak… couldn’t speak… but she should’ve… it would’ve been better than what she did next. Nessa simply turned away from her fellow gym leaders, from her friends, and walked into the stadium to get ready for the day’s matches, leaving the others outside confused and concerned.
Part 2???
