Fandom A Chance Meeting at Ilex Forest

[AmethystRoze]

She didn't expect this attack upon her mind, and she was caught off guard.

"I...I don't mind controlling others... I..i even find it.....no.. I don't want... enjoy… mommy please."

She fought as hard as possible, not sure if she could win this battle.

 

[JessieSune]

Balaa falters a moment too, uncertain what to do with her daughter's cries, but her resolve holds out in the end -- despite feeling a pang of guilt.

"You want to practice and hone your skills of mind-control -- nothing suits you better."

She puts her all into it, hoping for both their sakes for it to be over quickly.

 

[AmethystRoze]

"I.. I want to practice my....hypnosis?.. no... no I don't." She thought, finally regaining her thoughts, tough she was sweating profusely. The gem on her head glowed a violent purple. "I... I don't want to anymore..i...it's not right!" She thought, blocking mommy from her mind now.

 

[JessieSune]

Balaa shudders, the sudden resistance knocking her off guard. She fights to get back in, slamming her mental prowess against Danielle's.

"Le--let me...in...I'm.....doing....the.....best....thing....!" Each word is punctuated by a push, but they get progressively weaker.

 

[AmethystRoze]

Mommies raw mental prowess and power was incredibly difficult to break through but she held strong. "No...ugh... I don't want to!" She said using a wave of force to push mommy away, without looking at the results she sprinted towards the mouth of the cave.

 

[JessieSune]

Balaa's cries go from tense to desperate, but they become fainter and fainter as Danielle gets farther from the Cave. Balaa calls for La'ir, but her exertion has weakened her hypnosis, and she is unable to break him free -- making her too tired to move or to make someone else search.

Left alone and exhausted, she begins to weep.

"What did I do wrong?" she repeats, over and over and over.

 

[AmethystRoze]

Danielle ran as far as her legs would take her and fell to the ground, resting for a little. Her tears ran from her face like water runs from the niagra. She sobbed on the floor, not many thoughts flowing through her head, just raw emotion. "Mommy...…" She sobbed more wanting anyone, to come and comfort her, to take these ugly stupid feelings away from her.

 

[JessieSune]

A few moments later a presence can be felt. It's quiet and calm, and familiar. A glance up reveals Malea, but she looks very surprised to see Danielle.

"Danielle? Sweetie, what's wrong? Are you hurt?"

The Shaymin looks over the Vulpix, frightened on her behalf.

 

[AmethystRoze]

The tiny fox pokemon didn't have words she threw herself at aunt Malea, though weakly due to exhaustion and sobbed even more. Her eyes flashed blue and the scene from moments before was displayed in Maleas mind.

 

[JessieSune]

Malea shudders with the sudden memory sharing -- both from surprise and horror.

"Oh, dear...poor sweet dear..." she gently nuzzles the weeping Pokemon, saying nothing else. There's not much she can say to comfort Danielle, and to her it seems wisest to just be there to cry on.

 

[AmethystRoze]

After what seemed to be an eternity her sobbing calmed itself some and she could speak again, if not very clearly. "Aunt M....Malea…" were the only words to come out, sorrow but also some relief in her voice.

 

[JessieSune]

"Danielle, I am so sorry. Would...would you like to go home with me tonight? It's not as comfy as your cave, but...I don't want you to have nowhere to stay."

The Shaymin takes a deep breath. She feels badly for both of them.

 

[AmethystRoze]

She simply nodded her head. Her sobbing ended she got to her paws and tried to dry her eyes, she didn't speak though, not finding any words.

 

[JessieSune]

The two Pokemon walk in silence until they reach a grove surrounded by fruit trees. Malea motions to an old tree in the center.

"That's my home. Let's go inside and get you some food and rest...and water too,"

Malea keeps her voice low -- she knows the pain Danielle is feeling from her own experience too.

 

[AmethystRoze]

"Thanks.." She said, voice also quiet. She followed Aunt Malea inside and took the food and water gratefully.

 

[JessieSune]

After some time has passed and the food is gone, Malea finally takes a deep breath.

"What do you think you'll do now?" is all she says, but her eyes are probing, though still kind.

 

[AmethystRoze]

"I.... I don't know" She said. She wasn't read to do something like overthrow mommy, but things couldn't keep going the way they were... right?

 

[JessieSune]

Malea nods. "That's fair. Today was a very hard day, for both you and Balaa. I think she must have hurt you deeply. Do you think she is wrong? Wrong enough to stop?"

She looks over her shoulder, but it's not a demanding look.

 

[AmethystRoze]

"Wha…. what do you mean by stop?" She asked, just as much as she didn't want in anyone minds anymore, she didn't want to harm mommy... she couldn't.

 

[JessieSune]

"I think the only way...to get Balaa to stop controlling others...is to find a way to disable her power..." says Malea cautiously.

She doesn't want to frighten Danielle -- and it's been a long day. Talking logistics seems inappropriate.

 

[AmethystRoze]

"I.... I wanna go to bed" She said, not comfortable talking anymore.

 

[JessieSune]

"Alright," says Malea. "The door over there leads to a spare room. There's a bed in there. Make yourself comfortable, and if you need help, let me know."

She pauses, remembering how Ninetales wrap up their young.

"Do you need someone or something to cuddle with?"

 

[AmethystRoze]

She nearly broke down again when she asked....it reminded her of mommy. "Y...yes please." She said meekly, not wanting to impose but very desperately wanting something or someone to be close to.

 

[JessieSune]

Malea nods. "Alright, one moment." She goes over to a desk and pulls out a small plush Mew.

"This is Cassiopeia. It's a very special toy. You can have it for tonight -- I bet you might like to talk to it. Get some rest, alright?"

 

[AmethystRoze]

"Alright." She said taking the plush, already feeling a little better. She started to walk away before turning back "T..thanks Aunt Malea"
