JAMES' P.O.V.
"Who are you?", I ask the Pokemon.
"My name is Mewtwo.", the Pokemon says.
"Master James, I sense that this Pokemon has genes that are similar to mine.", Mew says.
I look at Mew in shock.
"You mean that this Pokemon was made from your DNA?!", I say in surprise.
"That's exactly what I mean.", Mew says.
Hope growls.
"Get lost buddy! We don't have time for-", but Hope's cut off by Mewtwo.
Mewtwo's eyes glow, and Hope rises into the air.
She starts choking.
"Stop it! Please!", I plead.
Mewtwo looks at me.
"Tell her to be quiet, or else the next time she speaks, I will kill her.", Mewtwo says.
"Okay, okay! Please, just put her down!", I say.
Mewtwo releases his powers on Hope.
Hope falls to the ground, gasping and coughing.
I crouch down to her.
"Are you okay?!", I ask her while running my left hand along her back.
She nods, still coughing.
I get up, and stare at Mewtwo in anger.
"What the hell is your problem!", I say.
"How did you gain knowledge of my existence?", Mewtwo asks, completely ignoring my comment.
"Harry Goodman told me about you. He told me that he was investigating what was going on here, and that he was working here undercover.", I answer him.
Mewtwo's eyes widen for a moment.
"Did you just say, Harry Goodman?", Mewtwo asks.
"Yeah. Why?", I ask.
"I know what happened to him.", Mewtwo says.
My eyes widen.
"Y- you do?!", I stutter.
"I do.", Mewtwo says.
"Wh- what happened to him?!", I ask, wanting to know what really happened to Harry.
"After his car accident, Harry crawled out of the wreckage, and was accompanied by his Pikachu. Harry was in critical condition, so, as an act to save his life, I put his soul into his Pikachu's body, and then I erased the Pikachu's memories as a precaution.", Mewtwo says.
I stand there in silence, my thoughts running wild.
'It all makes sense. Why there wasn't a body, why Pikachu's voice sounds so similar to Harry's voice, and why Pikachu doesn't have any memories about what had happened to him.', I think.
"Your friends are in danger. They have been captured by Howard Clifford's humans. They are now being taken to Howard Clifford as we speak.", Mewtwo says.
"Oh shit! Tim! Lucy!", I say, panicking.
Hope wraps her ribbons around my left leg, and I calm down a little.
I look down at her.
"Thanks.", I say.
She nods, then lets go.
"Interesting.", Mewtwo whispers.
I look up at Mewtwo again.
"Mewtwo, can you please do me a favor?", I beg.
Mewtwo raises his head.
"What is it?", he asks.
"C- can you please stall Howard's men? I- I need to get to Tim and Lucy. Please!", I beg.
Mewtwo thinks for a moment.
"I will do as you ask under one condition.", Mewtwo says.
"What is it?", I ask, willing to do whatever it takes to save my friends.
"You promise not to tell anyone about me.", Mewtwo says.
"I promise.", I say.
"You better mean it, because if you break your promise to me, you will regret it. I will be keeping a close eye on you from now on.", Mewtwo says.
And with that, Mewtwo flies away.
"Master James, are you sure we can trust him?", Mew asks.
"I don't know, but he'd better keep up his end of the deal, because I actually intend to keep my promise to him.", I say.
"Then let's hope he keeps his promise.", Hope says.
Mew nods in agreement.
"Alright you two, let's hurry. We've gotta catch up to Tim and Lucy before it's too late.", I say.
Together, the three of us hurry in the direction Mewtwo flew.
