The Fallen Will Rise on Broken Wings

Chapter Thirty Four- Bitter Wounds Resurfacing

(NOTE- This will be a short chapter and will mention about abuse as well as trauma)

In the eyes of both  mortal and Pokemon, we have a past, present and a future.

We have memories which defines us as a person and experiences that builds us to who we are. We all experience hardship and we should all learn from them, no matter how painful. Its because of what we go through, we can change ourselves and become the people or in some cases for Pokemon, what they want to turn out to be.

The same can be applied for a young boy from Twinleaf Town...

Peter Twinleaf.

Growing up in a small town in such a big region, he had learned many experiences when it comes to love, happiness, joy, sadness, despair and hardship. Throughout the boys journey, he had experienced many things that both can be classified as precious and traumatic. The Eeveelution trainer had to learn the hard way on who to trust and who to run away from. Luckily for the young boy, he had Ethan Ketchum by his side when they both went on their Sinnoh Journey long ago. The two instantly clicked and were there side-by-side, sharing their views, hobbies, love interests and many things that can be defined as similarity. Ethan had helped Peter that much throughout their journey that he felt indebted to the older male.

He had vowed to the Fairy trainer that if he was to seek revenge or if he was in trouble, Peter would be there to pick him up and assist him no matter what. Peter was just that thankful to have Ethan as his best friend and someone who he can call a brother.

Hell, it was thanks to the Archangel that Peter and Simon got together.

And for that, Peter couldn't ever be happier. He has his family, his Pokemon, a lover that adores him and he himself adores, and friends to help him no matter what.

Speaking of Peter, he walked down the streets of Hielo with Cynthia, a woman who people adore with their heart and a fierce Pokemon Champion. He and Cynthia dote on one another like siblings and the blonde woman promised to look after Peter, to protect and to guide him along the journey of life. The tournament decided to have a day off so the participants were currently relaxing and doing whatever it is that they wanted to do... as long as it was within the Hielo Regions rules and law.

Cynthia had decided for her and Peter to have a sibling day where they would catch up and spend time with one another; Like shopping (FYI both of them are shopaholics), watch movies at the Hielo cinema, eat junk food, talk (gossip) and just having a good time all in all. Indeed, it was a day full of joy and happiness.

However the joy and happiness couldn't last forever.

For both Peter and Cynthia stopped as soon as they turned around the corner to meet someone from the boys bitter past. 

Barry.

Peters face paled at the sight of the man and froze on the spot where as Cynthia immediately went into sister-mode and pulled Peter close to her.

"Lets go Peter-" She said but stopped when she saw the blonde males smirk and his eyes staring back. His eyes once lit up like the sun is now hollow and cold, almost glass like if you were to describe.

"Well, well, well." Barry spoke as he locked eyes with Peter, "Long time no see, babe."

"You don't have the right to call him that." Cynthia spat, "Not after what you did to him over the years."

"Barr...y?" Peter stuttered. His stomach began to churn slightly and felt a little dizzy. He wanted to throw up and run away but his body couldn't listen. He felt like he was paralyzed. Peter wanted Simon so badly right about now, to take his hand and whisk the boy away, and take him as far away as possible.
