Fix Me (A Pokémon Gold x Reader story)

🌸Fourteen🌸

"Goodbye honey." Ruby smiles, kissing your cheek. He then exits the room.

You sighed, not knowing how to feel. You were happy, yes, you were with a kind boy who tried to make you smile and laugh, but now it would be awkward around Gold. Luckily you wouldn't have to deal with that right now. "Hey (Name), I'm glad you and Ruby got together...I'm just gonna battle the gym here, I'll be back in a half hour. I hope you feel better soon." He pokes his head in then leaves.

You frowned then turned over in bed, laying on your injured side just so you can check on Litten. It hurt at first but the pain subsided as you put up with it. She was curled up and sleeping. She was blind, and you wanted to help her.You wondered if she'd travel with you like Tyrogue and Sableye. Speaking of which, where were your Pokémon? You stood up quickly, which wasn't a good idea. Your legs were weak and numb from all the strain they took yesterday, causing you to stumble. You grabbed the curtains between the beds to try and stay up, but they just dislodged and the curtains came falling from the ceiling and you crashed on the floor, the metal bar holding them up hitting you over the head. Dizzy, you rubbed your head and sat up. A shadow loomed over you, and when you looked up, there stood a dark and blurry figure.

"Nurse Joy?" You asked. "S-sorry for yanking down the curtains, I wanted to know where my Pokémon were." You muttered sheepishly.

"They're right here." A familiar voice held up your utility belt, which contained two used Pokéballs with Sableye and Tyrogue in them. You could hear the anger in his voice as he spoke, "and you took something of mine, so I'm getting him back."

You knew he was talking about Tyrogue. "No!" You cried. "I won't let you!" you forced your legs to hold up your frail body, and you grabbed your belt as he reached for Tyrogue's Pokéball. You held his wrist with your other hand and pushed against him to try and prevent him from taking it. He suddenly gave up force, causing you to fall into him, before he pulled away from your grasp and clasped the Pokéball in his hand. In a quick movement, you reeled back and punched the man square in the jaw, causing him to drop it. His mask tilted a bit, and from under his hood you caught a familiar hair color, but you didn't dwell on it. You had punched him and from previous encounters, knew something was going to go down. You were right, and he wasn't going to give up so easily. He threw you into a wall before going for the Tyrogue. You didn't get it though, why was he so obsessive over a Pokémon he could catch almost anywhere he wants? You didn't think at all, you just lunged for The Man and wrapped your arms around his neck, pulling him back before you bit down hard into his shoulder. He grunted in pain then rolled over and crushed you under his weight, before scratching at your arms. He then grabbed your stitched injury as hard as he could, causing you to screech at the top of your lungs, and you let go of him. He stood up quickly before he went back for Tyrogue's Pokéball. You held your side in agony, as some of your stitches had come undone and you were bleeding out.

"That was...quite a fight...but you're too weak." You could hear the triumphant smirk in The Man's voice.

You looked up at him in defeat as you lay there, holding your wound. "Give him back..." you murmured in pain, "I loved him when you didn't..." you tried to stand up, to give one last ditch effort, but only fell to your knees. Luckily you weren't alone.

Litten, who could finally safely hit The Man without harming you, raked his arm with her long claws. He hollered loudly before backhanding her into the wall next to you. Unfortunately he was quick enough to react and still clutched thePokéball in his hand.

"Litten!" You cried, crawling over and touching her paw. "Litten are you alright?" She mewled in response before shuddering. "It wasn't enough, but thank you. You did great." You hugged her closer to her. She mewed again before her head turned to face yours. You looked into her milky white eyes, which seemed to hold more wisdom than anyone you ever knew. She gave you a nod before she began to glow a bright blue color. Astonished and confused, you backed away. You weren't quite sure what was happening, but that was because you'd never seen aPokémon evolve before. The blue mass suddenly liquefied before it shifted around, growing and changing, before it hardened again. When the glowing blue light died down, your eyes widened in awe. "A...Torracat?"

She meowed a deep and bellowing meow. She looked much more confident, standing up tall. She was quick to locate something in the mess the hospital room had become, and she kicked it hard. It flew out and hit a wall, giving a click as Sableye popped out next to Torracat. She meowed at him briefly before he nodded. They both stood in front of you in a protective stance. Sableye began to Mega Evolve.

As soon as they were ready, they began their attack. Mega Sableye held his large red gem up as it projected a light blue shield as Torracat built up a large ball of flame in her mouth. She then leaped and launched it at The Man, who didn't have any defense and just took it. On fire, he screamed and writhed about, dropping to the ground and in the process, Tyrogue'sPokéball too. Sableye was quick to scoop it up and return it to you, and you let out the smallPokémon. Tyrogue saw everything that happened from inside, and he began to cry. He wrapped his tiny arms around your neck, holding you close as he sobbed into your shoulder. You put an arm around his small body and pulled him into you. You were propped up on your elbow, holding your side as you continued to bleed.

You glared down at The Man as he lay on the ground, first and second degree burns everywhere. "He's made his choice. I suggest you leave before--"

You were interrupted by the door to your room bursting open. In the doorway stood Nurse Joy, who had a shocked and worried expression, and Gold, who looked angrily at The Man. He suddenly dashes towards him, before The Man throws down a smoke bomb and they're both lost in the smoke. Once it dissipates, The Man is gone and Gold is looking out the open window.

He growls in frustration. "Shit! I was supposed to catch him!" He slams his fist against the wall before sighing. He turns to you, "(Name), you're hurt!" He collapses next to you, holding your head under his arm.

"I'll...be fine...Sableye you know what to do." YourPokémon nods, shifting out of his Mega form and puts a hand on your side. A bright turquoise light emits from the wound as he uses Recover to heal it. While he's doing so, you look up at Gold. Your heart was a little crushed, but you knew it was for the best. You already knew the answer to your question as you pointed to the dolled-up looking girl, peering at you two from the door, "Gold?...Who is she?"

Hope y'all are prepared!
