Bring Back My Light (SPM Pokéhuman AU!!!)

Dead In Body (1)

AN: Slanted words are thoughts from a character!

---------------

Everything was black. Blackness as far as vision would allow. After all, everything important always seemed to start in dark and slowly turn to light. And it most certainly did when Mr.L opened his eyes, groaning as he did.

He blinked in confusion as he rubbed his eyes, something feeling off as his eyes refused to show him where he was. The last thing he remembered was blowing up, not a very pleasant feeling. But not only was he perplexed on how he was even alive but there was also something else as he felt around himself.

"Ohhh... I feel like I was hit by a truck..." Mr.L groaned, "And my ears are ringing..."

Mr.L felt where his ears were and paused, perplexed as he felt them. They seemed different in shape.

"What the..." Mr.L questioned.

He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion and then flicked his tail so it would dangle in front of his face. Mr.L went wide-eyed as soon as he saw his tail, it was now shaped differently. He had evolved into a Raichu!

"So instead of dying, I evolved?" Mr.L questioned no one in particular, "What is going-AH!"

Mr.L suddenly keeled over onto his knees, clutching his chest. Everything felt like it was on fire, the exact same feeling he felt when Dimentio had killed him. Or at least tried to kill him.

"Lousy, no good... This is all his fault!" Mr.L spat, "If this is the bad place people go to, I sure as heck hope to see him here!"

Mr.L took a deep and shaky breath as he stood, trying to get his eyes to focus. All he could see for miles was black and nothingness. Looking himself over, his outline seemed blurry, as if he could just phase through anything solid. He might have concluded that he died and became a ghost if it wasn't for the constant pain lingering.

"This is weird... Where even AM I?" Mr.L wondered out loud, gritting his teeth to try and reduce the pain.

He paused for a moment and his ear twitched. Mr.L turned and saw nothing, but he could've sworn that he heard something. He walked for a moment and then heard it again, it sounded faint, it sounded like someone whispering.

"Uhh... Hello? Someone there?" Mr.L called out.

He didn't get a verbal response, but instead heard more of the whispering. Mr.L frowned as he looked around, still struggling to not collapse in pain again.

"I'm losing it. I've definitely gone insane." Mr.L thought to himself.

"A new voice in my head? Never heard that one before."

Mr.L flinched and spun around hearing the new voice only to see nothing. The whispering continued, though occasionally becoming loud enough to be heard.

"All of this feels so weird... Am I truly dead? Death hardly feels like how I imagined... Is that a good or bad thing? Is there a way out? I'm sure not... You've dug a hole for yourself this time..." The voice kept prattling on.

Mr.L kept whipping his head around, hearing the voice so close to him yet nothing in sight.

"HELLO?! Anyone there?!" Mr.L exclaimed.

The voice seemed to not hear him as they continued ranting and raving to themselves. Mr.L sighed heavily in frustration, not understanding any of this.

"This is spooky..." Mr.L decided.

"Ah, there it is again! A new addition to the voices." The voice replied.

"Great, the voice can hear my thoughts." Mr.L groaned.
