Chapter 14: Red Eyes
'I didn't care if what I was doing is right or wrong.'
An image of a honey-blonde girl resurfaced.
'I just let that desire to make them pay push me forward.'
Her face burnt away, intercepting recognition.
The room was huge.
Opposite of Ash were the remaining Team Rocket grunts.
Numbering close to a hundred.
And in front of them, was their Boss.
"Name's Giovanni, child," his voice deep and authoritative.
"Keep your nose out of grown-up matters…"
Ash and his Pokémon readied their battle stances.
"Or experience a world of hurt!"
A gigantic purple horned monster bellowed behind him.
With Pokémon from the grunts behind it acting as its soldiers.
Roaring at his enemies, Ash moved forward.
The battle ensued.
Ash was hopelessly outnumbered.
Nidoking's [Earth Power] shook the floor.
Its [Stone Edges] littered the floor with rocky spikes.
Spikes sharp enough to kill.
One by one, the grunts fell.
Mostly thanks to friendly fire, courtesy of Nidoking.
Even so, Ash's fatigue started to build up.
Nights without sleep were taking effect on the boy's body.
His Pokémon as well.
But they still pushed forward.
Eventually, the room was left with two Trainers.
Ash vs Giovanni.
The latter without so much as a scratch on him.
His Nidoking showed no signs of fatigue.
The raven-haired boy's party of 5 were barely hanging on.
Exhausted and out of breath.
"You have my praise, child," Giovanni started with a look of amazement.
"To use my Nidoking's moves as a means to defeat my forces; even though you could have easily been at the unfortunate end," he continued.
"You are one crazy child."
A smirk present on his wicked face.
"Does death not scare you, boy?" Giovanni inquired, fascinated by Ash.
"What motivated you to go this far?"
Red eyes glared at the man.
"My Cubone…" he answered.
"His mother's death at your hands."
"You robbed him of his family."
"That's unforgivable to me." Ash concluded, clenching his bloodied fingerless gloves.
Giovanni merely scoffed.
"You come here and destroy my organization… all for mere sentimentality?" he spoke with a voice laced with anger.
