The Fairy's Poison: FD 2 (Pokemon) ||Complete||

Chapter 15: A Gleeful Demise

Hi everyone!!  SK here.

The chapter title may or may not be referring to my current addiction to the show Glee.  Specifically to the ship Klaine- wait what am I doing, that's the wrong fandom!  POKEMON, SYLKIE, POKEMON.

*cough* Ahem, sorry.

So as you might have guessed, Valerie's life got cut short- and you now know that she's almost as old as August and Verity.  Let's see what happens next, shall we?  I hope you enjoy this chapter!

Valerie

There are lots of times in my life that I thought I'd be dead.

Asking for someone's name, then immediately forgetting it and saying it wrong?  Dead.  But apparently I (unfortunately) lived through that.

Getting hit by that man?  I thought I wouldn't wake up the next day, but that clearly happened.  It happened again and again, over and over.

Getting chased into the forest by him with a gun?  I definitely thought I'd be dead, but here I am.

I just really did think that I would've died when I was shot multiple times, but I guess I'm not?

Well, floating in the middle of a black void doesn't really tell me much about my current dead-or-alive status, but the fact that I can hear voices and cries from around me tells me that I must be unconscious.

Open your eyes.

No.  I don't want to yet.

I want... no.  I need to figure out how I'm still alive.

Wracking my brain, I try to recall today's previous events.  That man shot me.  I remember bleeding out, then suddenly feeling Nombles' Pokeball beneath my hand even though I forgot to bring her to school today.  I can barely recall the fairy-winged Pokemon who-

Wait, hold up.

It was green... had blue eyes... also had fairy wings... there's no doubt about it.  I was saved by the Mythical Pokemon Celebi.  There's no mistaking it- no other Pokemon has all of those features.  

There's only one question that remains.  Why would Celebi save my life?  I can only assume that it brought me to the fairies, it's only logical.

Open your eyes.

It's just why exactly would Celebi bring me back to the Colony to become Initiated?  I remember something that one of the fairies- can't remember who- said about being an Elemental.  It gives someone the potential to become a fairy.  The potential, that's it.  Celebi could have very easily left me.

I don't think I'm that special.  Why would

I slowly blink open my eyes then immediately regret that decision when a harsh white light infects my vision.  Squinting, I slowly sit up expecting to feel pain and feeling surprised when there is none.  I almost have to facepalm myself.  Fairies, Valerie.  They have magic.

"Valerie.  Thank Zagan."

Turning, I see Verity sitting next to me with a serious look on her usually laid-back face.  Her expression remains relatively unreadable, but her eyes radiate a sense of relief.
