บท 14: Decision

Abigail was still thinking of her past when Liam woke up and kissed her on the lips causing her to smile. He asked her if there was anything wrong and she told him she would say to him later so Liam started to tease her and they got nasty and dirty again.

After finishing the deed in bed, they went to take a shower together and accidentally did the act again there. They came out of the shower with all smiles and went to get ready for the day. Liam told her he was going to the courtyard to train, and if she wanted to join him. She agreed and changed into her sportswear. She was curious about what Pokemon had, so she asked for a battle, and Liam got excited because he could tell that she was a reliable trainer.

She released a Butterfree that she had caught at Viridian Forest after her escape. She was only a level 30, so Liam sent out Arbok since he didn't trust her, but as soon as Arbok saw her, it raced up to her and hugged her, causing Liam's heart to break because he knew the previous owner was a team rocket member.

She saw how his face sank after seeing what just happened and told him she could explain. Still, Liam was too angry, so he returned Arbok and summoned Shadow, because of his heartbreak and anger his eyes had turned red just like a shadow and both their aura had exploded, causing Abigail to get on her knees and cry out that she could explain much louder.

Liam saw her crying and calmed down and asked her to speak from a distance, but his eyes were still red. After hearing her story, his eye turned back to gold, and he told her he would help her only after defeating Giovanni, so she has to keep running until He is brought to Justice. He felt terrible for her, but he couldn't just believe any sob story that came by him.

After getting some facts will he truly trust her again, so they went their separate ways for now.

Liam spent the rest of the day training and getting ready for his gym battle. The outburst, after discovering that Abigail was a team rocket member, helped Shadow level up to 40 and unlocked an unknown skill, and also gained an aura that could scare Pokemon under his standard.

Abigail had gone up to the room to get her stuff and left the city before going she left a note for Liam to read.

Dear Liam,

I know you are mad at me and it will be tough to gain your trust again but I think it's worth the wait and I enjoyed your company so I will keep hoping for a future together with you, and if the Gods want us to be together, we will meet again. I will go to Mt Silver to train to get strong enough to take down team rocket myself and rescue my sisters. Thanks for listening to my story.

Love Abigail.
