The Starr Trainer - A Poke-Fan Fiction

I'm Belle Starr

"I'm Belle Starr," Belle said, wincing as the attacks continued. Her body seized as another thunderbolt hit her. "I'm going to be the first Dragon Pokemon Master." Belle coughed the poison from the Beedrill still affecting her. "I hold my pokemon to the same standards I hold myself." Belle wheezed as another rock throw hit her directly. She bit her tongue to hold her emotions back. Blood left her mouth as Belle coughed. "I'm Belle Starr," she whispered, trying to keep her consciousness, trying to keep her sanity.

"Yes, yes, so we've heard," Giovanni said with a chuckle. "Come now, dear. Surely, you've had enough by now?" Belle turned and spat in his face. He slapped her, her head bowing weakly. Her arms and legs were chained as they had lines of pokemon ready to hit her. "Guess you still have some manners to learn."

"I'm Belle Starr," she whispered as a Staryu hit her with a swift attack. "Nice strength, Staryu." She coughed.

"Boss," Jesse started. "Don't you think she's had enough?"

"I'll tell you when she's had enough," Giovanni barked back. 

"Yes, sir," Jesse said, bowing her head in obedience. 

"Jesse," Belle called out. "Is he okay?" Jesse nodded. "My pokemon?" She nodded once more before leaving the room. Belle winced as every part of her ached. "You could be a powerful trainer on your own, and why resort to this?"

" I'm a busy man. I can't be everywhere catching every type of pokemon, now can I?" Giovanni asked. He gestured for the next pokemon. "I thought you might like this next one." Belle looked up at a Dragonair staring back at her. "Come on, Dragonair. Hyper beam." Belle screamed as the impact hit her. She stifled her tears, her body betraying her as it gave out, the chains holding her up. "How much more are you willing to take? You willing to die for your pride?"

"I'm Belle Starr. I'm going to be the first dragon pokemon master."

"ENOUGH," Giovanni crossed to a table and grabbed another Beedrill stinger. Belle whimpered as he approached her. "What a strong trainer, whimpering to a little Beedrill stinger, hm?" She closed her eyes in shame. He stabbed it in her leg. Belle cried out, her tears not holding back. "Soon, that poison will start affecting your brain, and I'll be able to mold you into whatever I want. I'm a patient man, and I'll wait that long if I have to."

"I refuse to treat pokemon to behave this way. Do your worse."

"If you're certain," Giovanni snapped, and a Rhyhorn stepped in front of her, positioning itself to ram into her. She swallowed her nerves as he snapped again. The Rhyhorn rushing toward her, and its horn rammed into her stomach. Belle dangled in his chains, blood dripping from her mouth and several wounds on her body. "Again, Rhyhorn."

"Rhyhorn, please. I know there's good in you. Don't let this man control you. Don't," Belle cried out again as it attacked her again. 

"Well, I guess we might as well wrap this up." He snapped the hoard of Beedrill buzzing around her. He started to position his fingers to snap.

"Wait!" Belle cried out. "Please. Okay. I'll do it, please," she sobbed. Her body collapsed, every part of her feeling broken as he undid the chains. 

"Good choice, Belle Star," Giovanni chuckled. "Take her to her room." They tossed her into a cell with nothing more than its four stone walls, a window on the door so small that she couldn't fit a fist through it. They gave her nothing to recover. Her body lay limp on the cold floor, blood spilling from her mouth. "If you make it through the night, I'll know you're worthy."

Tears left her eyes. She was unable to move despite being unbound. Her body throbbed, and she could not pinpoint a pain that hurt worse than any others. She coughed as the poison continued to mix with her blood. "I'm Belle Starr," she whispered, succumbing to the pain.
