False Hope (Pokémon)

Chapter 46

Day: Monday. Yes, I've skipped some days, and with that the conversation Drew and May had about that Drew wasn't leaving. I'm sorry, but I don't think that conversation is that interesting.

( Sky's POV )

I stood up, stretching my legs. Because of my injury they had me stay in the hospital until now. I was actually surprised they respected the law, giving me a chance to talk myself out of this all. At least Misty's secrets would be revealed in public. Maybe she would end up in jail too. I knew there was no getting myself out of prison, especially with all the evidence. The last thing I could use as some sort of defense was that night I wasn't the attacker, but the one attacked. But since I did something illegal back then, that wouldn't help me.

The door opened and a guard came in. He didn't look half as strong as Derek, and I knew I had a chance of defeating him. But I decided not to attack him. Things were already messed up as it was now, I couldn't afford attacking a guard. Not to mention there wasn't only one guard. And I just didn't know how much my leg and shoulder could do at the moment. The man threw me some clothes. A teeshirt and jeans. It annoyed me that the guard didn't leave while I had to change. But I kept my mouth shut as the perfect Sky I had been pretending to be for so long.

"When you're done changing, I'll bring you to the tribunal."the man said. He was trained, I could see that from his muscles. Though I also saw he was trained purely on strength, and there was no swiftness or grace in any of his movements. An arrogant smile escaped my lips.

"Fine by me."I replied. I had only met my lawyer once, and he seemed like a rich man with quite some influence. I didn't know who hired him, since I sure as hell hadn't. Then the silence came back again as I put on the teeshirt. The guard had his eyes straight at me and I had to do my best not to snap at him.

When I was done changing, I followed the guard to the elevator. There was also a sort of relief, knowing I would be out of this place soon. I had heard Misty and Gary were already out of the hospital, but I hadn't heard from May ever since that Thursday night. My eyes went to the receptionist. I followed my guard to the woman. She seemed a bit scared when being around me, but I didn't really mind. Fear was always better than those fake smiles.

The woman handed over a piece of paper and a pencil. The guard gestured I had to take the pencil and write. And so I did. They were all questions most likely from officer Jenny. There were also some questions about my medical condition, but they didn't seem to take much interest in that. I couldn't blame them. I gave back the paperwork.

"Can I have something to tie up my hair with?"I asked, smiling sweetly. The receptionist tensed up, afraid of the smile I was giving her. She gave me a scrunchie. My smile widened, both from satisfaction and politeness. Mostly satisfaction. Then I heard a loudly opening door.

"Miss, come back!"someone yelled, and I abruptly looked at the girl who ran my way. An angry expression on her face.

"Sky!"she shouted. I couldn't help but chuckle at the scenery. The blonde gave me an icy glare, though that didn't change my mood even a little bit. "What the hell is this?! I can leave the hospital tomorrow, but while I was here no one even informed me of you being here, let stand you're the one who murdered those people!" I rolled my eyes and smiled at her.

"Serena, sweetheart, you clearly don't seem well today."I said on my sweetest tone, doing my best to show that I acted. I had become good at acting, but I wouldn't act any longer. If I was acting, I was gonna let them know that whatever I said wasn't the truth.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!"Serena snapped at me. I didn't so much as flinch. "Why would you suddenly kill people? Are you out of your mind?!" I sighed and looked at my guard.
