章 20: The gingerbread boy
Waking up the next morning, Eli looked towards Q once more, who had his head inches away from his
"Stop it." Eli pushed his head away for the second time before stretching and changing clothes.
having a hearty breakfast with his pokemon, his eyes turned to the tv and his eyes instantly turned sour.
"Chief Augustine Aldine had a lot to say about the second attempt to take over the Galatic team base."
Eli dropped his spoon, before clenching on the tv remote.
looking at his father on the tv screen, Eli's eyes turned determined.
"Although our second raid was a failure, we have gained valuable intel on the island , and had managed to "Neutralize" at least 100 teams Galatic members." Eli listened in, before scoffing.
that was bullshit. they gained nothing out of it.
slowly examining the DR, Eli examined the whole gun and made sure there wasn't any trackers or anything of the sort.
dissembling the gun, Eli turned off the tv and examined the parts.
nothing of that there.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Eli quickly got ready for the academy before opening the door and walking out of his room.
he needed to be careful. overwise, he will draw too much attention and die.
as such, the boy threw out a Pokeball that revealed a Small gear with complex patterns engraved upon it.
Eli walked out of the dorm room, locked the door and walked down the countless stairs before seeing himself to the large building in front of him.
walking to the building, Eli instantly felt something wrong.
he felt time stop, almost like that time before.
the sky had turned red in his eyes, as he looked around.
on the top of the building, there was a glint, causing the boy to scream
"Bronzor!"
He trusted his instincts more than anything.
the sky quickly turned back into the soft blue as a sniper bullet pierced the sky and hit the psychic shield.
seeing that the bullet wasn't a 50 cal, the boy sighed in relief before frowning
"Why was he being targeted?" Eli ran complex questions in his mind "Did he draw too much attention, or?"
Eli sprinted to the Dorm building once more, before jumping into the elevator and going straight to the roof.
with his DR out, the boy scanned the roof of the building as his eyes flicked on the roof.
seeing that no one was there, Eli sighed before looking at the Sniper that had been left on the dorm building roof.
slowly examining it, he found that there was only one bullet missing from the magazine and examined the sniper.
A standard M40A5 sniper with a high optic scope and a suppressor attached.
Eli grabbed the sniper, before examining it and putting it back in the suitcase it had been assembled from.
entering his dorm room once more, Eli slotted the case under his bed and instantly walked out of the dorm room.
Q was out for lessons as a dragging sense of something wrong filled Eli's mind as he walked back to the academy and safely into the building.
breathing in, Eli sighed before opening the door.
he was still early, causing Eli to instantly open the door.
5 minutes passed, and Eli only saw 5 of his classmates caused in, causing Eli to furrow his eyebrows
"Pstt." A female classmate beside him said to him "The rest died in the battle the other day."
Out of the 30, only 5 people remain. how sad.
Eli's eyes flashed in an inexpiable light as he wondered who was the sniper from before.
---------------
The first period was well, boring. it was Marksmanship, of which Eli easily aced with every shot hitting the bulleyes. like he said before when he gets it , it clicks
for his half-hour break, Eli went back to the dormitory
a sense of paranoia filled his head as he instantly came to the door and whistled.
the door was rammed open, with the door being fully opened and hanging on the last of its hinges.
walking into the large space, Eli looked around and walked to his room.
all of his figures were rummaged through, but none of it was stolen, causing Eli to furrow his brows.
he checked everywhere. all of his items and draws were chucked on the floor, but nothing was stolen.
going back and examining the door, Eli decided to go deeper.
he examined the door, before coming to a conclusion.
"I see," Eli muttered. it was all starting to make sense.
the deadbolts and the latches weren't bent, just the frame of the door was destroyed.
someone had made it look like it was brute-forced. and someone made it look like a thief has entered.
the door had been unlocked from the outside and forcibly kicked down for an alibi.
and he knew who did it.
--------------
A figure opened the door, before coming in and yawning
Q looked towards Eli, who was fixing the door and said
"Who did this?"
"I don't know, some thief," Eli responded, adding a layer of polish to the door.
Eli gulped when he saw Q's shadow. a ghost type pokemon was in there, and it was strong.
his eyes didn't show any killing intent as he quickly fixed the door and placed it on its hinges before sitting down with Q on the sofa
"Say, Q, have you ever read the tale called the "The gingerbread boy."
Q's eyes fell upon Eli, before responding "Of course I had."
Eli's eyes fell upon Q's stare.
"The gingerbread runs away from its creator and its family, and every time it meets an animal that wants to eat it."
Q eyes fell upon Eli. his playful tone was gone. "The gingerbread man reached a wide river , and met a sly fox."
"The Gingerman wanted to cross the river, and such it hopped onto the sly foxes tail."
Silence filled the room before Q said
"The fox said it was too heavy on its back, so it told the gingerbread man to hop on its nose, and it did."
"The fox reached the riverbank, as it flicked its nose and ate the gingerbread." Eli could see Q starting to reach to his pocket, causing Eli to become tense.
"Do you know what differences me from the gingerbread man?" Eli said to Q , who had his hand in his pocket
"What is that?"
"Im not foolish and I don't trust people," Eli muttered to the boy, causing Eli to reach for his pocket.
2 polished DR could be seen as Eli threw out his pokeballs and Q the same
"Why did you do it?" Eli looked towards the boy, who simply sighed
Beedril, Houndour and Bronzor could be seen staring down a Gastly, Duskull and Shuppet
the real war begins here.
