"Dad?" an 8 year old Corvis called out as he looked up to see his father enjoying his cup of Kalosian Roast with Johton Post in his hands. He kept reading as he answered his son
"What is it boy?"
"Why did you become a Pokemon Ranger?"
Nate's eyes widened as he took a deep breath and placed down the newspaper. He stared into the curiosity-filled eyes of Corvis as he stood up on the chair he was sitting at. His small cup of Moomoo Milk almost spilling down.
"Why do you ask this?" Nate asked he took a sip of coffee
"I mean, you usually come home every once in a while either either with bruises or very weird injuries, like that one time you came home with your arm wrapped in toilet paper dripped in ketchup" he said as Nate almost spat out his coffee sweatdropping
"Uhhh...well...uhh..that's nothing important," he said
"But Mom told me you take out bad guys all the time! Why?" Corvis asked as Nate laughed a bit
"Well, Corvis, Let me tell you this, not everyone can protect themselves. Even if they have pokemon if them, they still need someone to watch over them, both people and pokemon," Nate said as memories of missions he's been on flooded through his mind
"But don't you get badly hurt everytime?" Corvis said as he pointed to the numerous scars around his arms. "Doesn't it hurt?"
"When I got these scars, yeah, they hurt a lot, but they just show how much I've been through and how much I learned over my years as a protector, someone who watched over the weak. These scars are much more than what they show, like that one over there," Nate said as he pointed to the large scar of Corvi's right arm, being revealed by the singlet Corvis was wearing.
"But mine hurts a few time, like this morning," he whined
"Then that means you have more to go through, something like this can't stop you you know, if you can get through something like this, how are you going to go through other challenges that will come to you one day?" Nate said "That's why, don't give in to pain and use it to move forward," Nate said as he smiled
"Uhhh...uhhh" he muttered as he tried to slowly opened his eyes. His vision slowly got cleared and clearer as he saw what was in front of him. Numerous Aqua grunts were surrounding the pool of water with the pedestal in the middle. Suddenly everything came back into his mind, how they found the Marine Chain and how Aqua got to them. He tried to move but then he noticed his arms and legs were stuck in place. He noticed a strong and sticky purple goo holding his hands and legs together, locked in place
"Guys!"
He looked around to see Ethan, Chloe, Sara and Rudy also tied to the the rocky wall they were at, still unconcious. He noticed Rudy's bag was open with this stuff spilled out. He saw his notebook in the hands of another Aqua grunt with the laptop in front of him.
Gotta find a way out of this
He kept trying to mvoe his arms and legs, but all he got were tiny movements only. He tried any possible direction but still no use
What is this stuff anyway
He looked up to examine to substance that was holding hom and the other together. It's slimy purple texture was enough to make Corvis feel a bit nauseous just by staring at him. He obeserved tiny sports of darker purple on it when an scent striked his nose, he realised the scent was coming from the goo.
