Ch. 25 Awkward Moments Get Awkwarder

The two stared at me. I probably could have come up with a better way to phrase that.

"Listen. What's your dad's name?" I asked, not entirely focused on them, what with the flying corkscrews buzzing around trying to kill me.

"His name is Marcus Raker."

"I'm telling you that's my dad's name!" I exclaimed, before leaping into the air to slice down another Magnemite.

"Not exactly seeing the resemblance." John said.

"Trust me. I'm am positive you're my step-siblings." They stared at me. "Okay, not completely, but, like, 99.98% sure, trust me."

John smiled. "Dad did always say his first wife had a sense of humor."

"Yeah," I grinned, "we're pretty awesome that way."

"All right, I'm-"

"GET DOWN!!!" I screamed as I pushed them to the ground as a barrel of the mutagen, which we had started calling Pokerus, landed right where they had been 1.5 seconds earlier. I flipped around to see the mysterious Lucario standing, levitating a 2nd barrel through the air.

"...Missed..." He muttered quietly before sending another barrel hurtling towards us. I wasn't prepared. All I had time to do was slash the barrel in half.

It split...

The liquid sprayed out behind me.

Onto my apparent step-siblings.

"Oh no." I gasped as I spun around to see them falling unconscious, one of the effects of the Pokerus.

"Third time's the charm." Lucario spoke behind me. I turned around in time to see a third barrel come flying towards my head. In a moment of sharp pain, I fell into black.
