A Real Battle Of Life

Chapter Three

Truth

The next day, Destiny had awoken first. He rubbed his eye softly, then got up and yawned. He looked around and saw that he was in a room with two girls sleeping in beds. He sighed, yawning again.

`I almost forgot that I was in the Mayor's house… His daughter's in that bed… And Celeste is in that one…' he thought, pulling on his jacket.

After doing so, he slipped his boots back on and then looked to the arm-like machine. He smirked to himself as he stared at it.

`Team Snagem's a loser Team… I'm glad I blew up the Hideout and stole their Mini Snag Machine.'

Destiny put the Snag Machine on his arm again, and then walked down stairs to see that the Mayor was still asleep as well. The TV was on, however, and it seemed that the News Channel got more reports.

"We've gotten reports from Phenac City that two shady guys attempted to kidnap a girl the age of seventeen. But a boy about the same age appeared at the scene of the crime just in time to save her! We have no idea who the girl or boy are, but we will hope to bring you more information soon." The Reporter spoke before going to the Sports segment.

"Tch… I wouldn't have saved her if I would've known I'd be on the news again…" Destiny mumbled to himself, turning the TV off.

*Cough cough cough*

Destiny turned around quickly to see that the Mayor had finally woken up.

"Oh, hello there… What did you say your name was?" the Mayor asked with a sweatdrop.

"I never told you my name, but if you must know, it's Destiny."

"Oh yes, Destiny! Well, are you and that nice, young lady Traveling Trainers?" the Mayor asked, smiling.

"Yeah…"

"Perfect! Why don't you go to the Phenac Stadium? It's where Pokemon Trainers go to fight battles against each other and earn EXP. Points! Also, if you win all four rounds, they give you a very large amount of money and a TM!"

"Eh… Sure… I guess, but I'll have to wait for Celeste to wake up." Destiny spoke up, blinking.

"I'm awake! Let's go, Destiny! I really want to see what the Stadium looks like inside!" Celeste exclaimed, sliding down the railing of the stairs and landing beside Destiny.

Destiny sighed and nodded, turning around to walk out the door.

"We'll come back later, Mayor… Zee."

"Good luck, Children!"

Destiny walked out of the house, Celeste following closely behind. They walked toward the rounded building, and then went up into a large building with waterfalls coming from all around it.

Once inside, they could see even more waterfalls, and a few CoolTrainers.

"Great… Just great… The line is WAY too long! Aw well… Let's get goin', Celeste…" Destiny spoke, turning around and walking out of the building.

They both walked out of the building, but were stopped by three bald men surrounding them. All had smirks on their faces, and all were looking straight at Destiny.

"Hey there, Destiny… Long time, no see…" one spoke.

"We trust that you've taken good care of the Snag Machine for Boss Gonzap…" another said.

"Huh? Destiny, who are these people?" Celeste asked, wrapping her arms around Destiny's right arm and hugging it tightly as if with fear.

"You haven't told her, have you, Destiny? That's you're a member of Team Snagem!" the first bald guy admitted for Destiny.

Celeste let go of Destiny and backed away, eyes filled with disbelief.

"It-It's not true! Destiny! Is that true??"

"No …" Destiny lied, gritting his teeth.

"You Gritted Your Teeth, Didn't You?! Didn't You?!" Celeste asked with surprise.

"FINE!! I WAS From Team Snagem! But That Was A Long Time Ago! I Want NOTHING To Do With Them Anymore!!"

"Yeah… Right… Come on, Destiny. Hand over the Snag Machine, and we'll put in a good word about you to the Boss." The second one said.

"Wha-What does the Snag machine do?" Celeste asked, almost regretting she even spoke.

"Heh, it steals other trainer's Pokemon. What else?" the first guy asked, grinning evilly.

Celeste's eyes widened, steals other Trainers' Pokemon?!

"Anyway, the Boss was pretty mad at you when you destroyed the larger Snag machine and blew up the Hideout, Destiny… But I reckon he'll forgive you if you come back." The third spoke.

"HELL NO!! I've All Ready Told You People!! I Want Nothing To Do With Team Snagem!!" Destiny yelled in anger, throwing out Gem's and Bre's Pokeballs.

"If it's a battle ya want, it's a battle you'll get! Go!" the first Snagem Member yelled, throwing out two Pokeballs of his own.

The battle begun, Team Snagem Member Wakin wanted to battle. Gem and Bre came out of their balls and were ready to fight, then Wakin's Pokemon came out. They were Corphish and Koffing, the Crab Pokemon and the Poison Gas Pokemon. Destiny's eyes narrowed into a death glare, his golden eyes almost turning red.

"Gem, Use Confusion To That STUPID Snagem Member's Koffing!! Bre! Use Black Bite Now!!" he commanded.

Bre's teeth began to glow a midnight black color as it began to bite Corphish, knocking it out by the amount of pain it was feeling. Gem's Confusion attack could actually be seen this time, Gem's eyes would glow red as the blood red beam blast Koffing to the ground. Wakin stared in disbelief; he lost just as quickly as the battle had begun!

"I Can't Believe This!! Let's Scram, Guys!!" Wakin yelled, making his Pokemon go into their balls and running off.

The other two ran off with Wakin; Gem and Bre going back into their balls, and leaving a very confused Destiny.

Destiny's eyes went back to normal, he blinked and fell to his knees. What just happened to him? Had his anger had taken its toll on him and made him go nuts for the moment or two? He shook his head to clear his mind, then felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked up from the ground and to his side to see Celeste smiling at him.

"Destiny… It's all right… I don't care if you used to be part of Team Snagem, but you know what? Maybe we should go buy some Pokeballs at the Mart."

Destiny blinked at her for a moment, staring into her forgiving blue eyes. Then he snapped out of it and nodded, getting up.

"Yeah, let's go."
