Battle Scar 「POKEMON」

12 | THE LOST CROWN

~17 YEARS AGO~

He was pained, tired, exhausted and worried. His eyes were red from being up all night for the past few days. The majestic silky robe he wore was crumpled all over the throne as he tightened the grip on the bottle of wine he had in his hand. The golden crown was by his foot, as some of parts of the crown was slightly cracked. Beside him, was a woman with tissue papers all over her feet. She wore a long purple and white gown that suited her figure nicely. Her beautiful brown eyes were bloodshot from crying as she continued to sob. The man sincerely looked over to the woman and placed his hand on her's.

"Shhhh....it'll be okay....We'll find him, we have guards all over Hoenn looking for him," he said quietly. On his other side, stood a mighty Absol. It's shiny white fur was glistening in the dark. It suddenly turned it's head to the large door that was opening. In came was a soldier with shining silver armor with a sword by his wiast. Beside him, was a tall, red and slender pokemon. It had claws as sharp as steel and three horns on it's head. On it's back, was 3 translucent wings.

"My king," he said quietly as he knelt down in front of the throne, his Scizor doing the same thing. The man put the wine bottle down and immediately got up.

"What is it? Did you find him? Please tell me you did, please," the man begged with a voice that made one's heart broke. The knight slowly removed his helmet, revealing short blonde hair as he placed the helmet down. His red eyes showed a pain look as tears slowly came out.

"I'm sorry my king, we looked all over Hoenn. We banned the ships and planes from leaving and entering the region yet we couldn't find him. It's been a month and still no progress," he said slowly as the man's eyes widened.

"Are you sure? Did you check the desert? Mirage Tower? Granite Cave? Lost-,"

"My king!" the knight said, almost shouting, cutting off the man. "I apologize for my rude behaviour, I beg for forgiveness," he said as he bowed down. When he did, he looked straight into the man's and the woman's eyes.

"My king, my queen, I'm sorry, terribly sorry, but we have not even the slightest clue, we must accept it," the knight said as his Scizor gave a pained look as well.

Without saying anything, the man screamed, threw the wine bottle onto the wall and kicked his crown as hard as he could. He watched as the golden crown rolled over to him.

"Gaaaahhhh!!!" he screamed as the woman was unable to say anything. The woman slowly stood up, the knight and the Scizor looking up to see her. Her face was different. She had a neutral look on her face, as if she didn't hear anything.

"M-My queen?" he said as the woman suddenly fell down the throne and onto the ground.

"My queen!" he shouted as he ran over to the woman. The woman's eyes were still open, tears continuosly flowing down.

"Men! Call the doctor and escort her majesty to her chambers! Now!" the knight shouted as the doors opened as multiple knights came in. They placed the woman on a stretcher as they brought her to another room. Few of them went to the man as he threw a tantrum, screaming and kicking everywhere as his Absol could only stare at his trainer in horror. The kngith heard a creaking noise and turned to the door. He saw the face of a small little girl with short black hair wearing a silky white nightgown. He went over to the girl and closed the door to prevent her from seeing anything.

"Fiona what are you doing staying up this late? " the knight gently asked. The girl looked up with her big brown eyes.

"Gabriel? What's mama and papa doing? Why is papa so mad? Did you find Alexander? " she asked innocently as the knight suddenly pulled her in for a hug.
