Ash's Dark Past *DISCONTINUED*

Migraine (Onikage's PoV)

Hey Guys. Country here. You guys, first and foremost, I need to apologize. I haven't written an actual chapter for this book since JANUARY. It's almost September. I'm so so sorry I've been prolonging this book. I honestly fell out of the Pokémon fandom for the whole eight months I've been gone from actually writing this book. But I'm slowly coming back to it. Anyways, thank you guys for staying with me and Enjoy the chapter!

Serena explained her plan to me and I was shocked.
"No way. You actually think that would work?" I ask her. She nods, looking away.
"It's kinda what happened when you took control of him..." she mutters. I had completely forgotten about that; she isn't wrong, but I don't think that I want my first kiss to happen with my best friend's - well, one of my only friend's - crush.
Still, though. It would most likely work if the affects are the same as when I was in control of Ash.

Suddenly, a searing pain erupted in my head. I screamed and fell to my knees, holding my forehead in my hands.
"Onikage?! What's wrong?!" Serena asked worriedly. I couldn't respond, my brain fuzzed up from the pain. Everyone was screaming and shouting. Everything was burning in pain. I screamed and held my head to the floor. I felt myself changing back and forth.
Not now, not now! I thought to myself as I screamed from another searing wave of pain. I could tell everyone was staring at me, but I didn't care. I was about to bang my head into the floor when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked over to see Kyle.
"K-Kyle..." I slowly spoke. My voice echoed, and I looked around to see we weren't in the Pokémon center, but some sort of astrophysical plain.
"Hey, Onikage, listen to me. You can control this. This isn't you. You can fight this-" he started but I screamed again, banging my head against the floor.
"I-I CANT!!! I-IT H-HURTS!! M-MAKE IT S-STOP!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, wailing in pain. My body felt like it was being torn apart as I continued screaming in agony. I felt two hands wrap around my waist then pull me up onto Kyle's lap, holding me close.
"Hey, hey, hey. Don't do that. It's okay, Lure. It's okay. Shhhh..." He soothed me. I hadn't heard him use my birth name since we died. It stunned me for a second before an immense wave of pain washed over me, crushing my lungs as I screamed loudly and yanked my hair. I felt two strong hands wiggle their way under mine and pry my hands out of my hair, forcing them down.
"Lure, listen to me! It's okay, Lure. You're okay. Deep breaths, okay? Deep breaths. Just like we used to. In for four, hold for six, out for - LURE STOP IT!!!" He yelled as I bit my hand. I figured if I could distract myself with different pain, the waves wouldn't hurt as badly, but me biting my hand only made things worse. Now my hand was bleeding as I screamed in agony. Kyle tried to get me to stop, but I couldn't. It hurt too much.
Eventually, I did let go of my hand and sobbed into Kyle's chest.
"D-Damian... e-everything, it... it h-hurts..." I wailed. I heard Kyle gasp at me using his real name, but he didn't care as he continued comforting me. He rocked me slowly and petted my hair.
"Shhh. I know, buddy, I know. It'll be over soon. I promise. Just hold out a little longer. Shhh, Shh..." He hushed me as I sobbed into his arms. I felt like a child again as Kyle held me in his arms. Suddenly, I started to feel more people hugging us. I looked up to see the entire group (minus Ash) was surrounding us. We were back in the PokéCenter, sitting in the hallway as the group hugged me and Kyle. I broke down in tears, trembling as I wailed. I was embarrassed to say the least, but I was glad that I had the friends I did to comfort me through times like this.
"I-I'm s-sorry..." I whimpered.

"It's okay, Onikage. We're here for you."
