Legends at Midnight

Chapter 9: Duo-Toned Eyes

(Alright, so this chapter is dedicated to Red_Rockett because the new character belongs to her (Plus she's awesome!). So, hope you like this chapter!)

Blue's P.O.V.

"Who was that?" Silver asked, confusion in his voice.

I shrugged, "Another prisoner, I guess. We might wanna help them."

Silver gave me another confused face, "Why would we do that? We don't even know them."

Then Midnight cut in, "Because it's the right thing to do. Now suck up the attitude and move your grumpy little ass before I give you a punch in the face." She threatened calmly, though her voice was on the verge of annoyance. I cracked a grin. Her mask was wearing off. She'll be smiling before long.

Midnight noticed my grin, "Something funny?" She asked calmly. I just shrugged and she sighed. We left my cell and opened the one next to mine.

Inside, was a girl. About 14 or so years old, so around Silver's age. She had unnaturally red hair with black streaks in it, and a strange pair of eyes. The one on the left was a captivating grey, while the other was a warm cinnamon hue. She stared at us with those duo-colored eyes for a moment before speaking, "Could you help me? I don't know why I'm here, and I don't think they have anything good planned for me."

Midnight nodded, "Yes. Hold on, I'll cut away the ropes, then you can come with us. What's your name?"

"My name's Ha- Er... Rockett..." She muttered, glancing away for a moment. I raised an eyebrow at her actions. Why had she hesitated? Was it because she was on the run and went by a fake name, like Midnight was? Well her name was harder to figure out than Midnight's name was. I suppose I'll figure it out eventually...

Speaking of Midnight, she suddenly spoke up, "Alright. Everyone's ready, so let's move!" She had freed Rockett and now was standing in the door way, on her way out.

I ran after her and the rest of the group as they fled the Team Rocket Base, dodging Grunts and Pokémon attacks to the best of our ability!

When we finally got out and to Silver's cabin, we all fell to the floor to catch our breath.

"Arceus I hate running!" Rockett growled out of nowhere, "Now where are our Pokémon?"

Guardian came over to us with two belts with Pokéballs clipped to them. I took mine, relieved to find them unharmed. Rockett let out all her Pokémon and gave them hugs. Her party kinda Surprised me. It was a Ghost Type Team.

She had a Haunter, a Litwick, a Misdrevious, a Dusclops, a Shuppet, and a Spiritomb. They all gathered around her and she hugged them to the best of her ability, "Oh I missed you all so much!" She exclaimed as she grinned widely.

She then turned to Me, Silver, and Midnight, "Thank you for rescuing us. We didn't know why we were in there, but it didn't seem like things were going to turn for the better. So now that you know who I am, who are you?"

Midnight simply spoke up, her face and voice emotionless again, "My name's Night. The Redhead's name is Silver and the spiky haired boy's name is Blue."

Rockett smiled, "Well like I said, my name's Rockett."

Midnight's P.O.V.

I was in the darkness, nothing was there. Yet I felt a warm pair of arms around me.

"Sir, put the child down and put your arms behind your back!"

A painfully familiar voice hisss close by, "I don't have to give her up! She's my daughter!" The man hissed.

"You have no legal rights to her sir."

"Legal rights my ass! SHe's my daughter, and I will not give her up like her mother did!"

"Midnight! Wake up!" Blue was shaking me awake. I opened my eyes to find myself in Silver's shack. I sat up and groaned.

"It's still light out Blue... What did I tell you about my sleeping patturns?"

Blue just looked at me in the eyes, staring for some reason.

"Something wrong?" I asked.

"Do your eyes normally change color?" He asked.

I sighed, "Blue, the reason why my eyes are normally red is because I have colored red contacts. I have naturally blue eyes."

But Blue shook his head, "No, that's not what I meant... Look at yourself in the mirror."

I took outt a mirror and as soon as I saw myself, I was instently awake from shock. My eyes were duo-toned! My left eye was still blue, but it was not an electric instead of an icy blue. And my right eye wasn't even blue anymore, but a deep forest green.

My eyes widened, "How did that happen?" I asked.

"I don't know. All I know is that something strange is going on."
