Blood in the Water
This is my first FanFiction, and is a working project, it DOES contain quite a bit of gore and violence, so it is rated PG-15 (viewers under 13/15 may find disturbing) please read at your own risk. I originally posted this FF on Serebii Forums, but thought I'd post it here too, seeing as I'm more active on PokeBay than Serebii. Please note: I AM the author of this FanFiction, I have not stolen it from someone else. However, I will not tolerate anyone stealing my work, so bear that in mind. Through the violence and battles, there is heart-warming tale of love, so please, read on....
Please read:
This FF is set in a world where Pokemon and humans live separate lives, but are at war with one another. Pokemon are just as intelligent as humans and they can speak, the story is set in a valley that is home to only Pokemon. Some Pokemon are in evil gangs or 'Clans', Clans will often torture humans for sport, anywho, on with the story......
Chapter 1: Torment
Screams ripped through the air as a young woman was thrust upon a bed of poison spikes. She twisted and buckled as she tried to roll off the bed, which only made the thorns sink in deeper. Her voice was suddenly reduced to a low, pain-filled moan as she gave in to the overwhelming force. She was lying face up, in a cold small cave. Other instruments of torture were lying around, scattered on the floor. She could not move, as the spikes were long and had already sunk into her muscles, flesh and bones. Poison was leaking into her body, crawling through her veins; it would not kill her, only make the pain of her 'session' worse. She closed her sad, chocolate brown eyes, and cried.
"See!" Umbreon squealed, "They are a weak race, they give in too easily!" He was slowly stalking round the table, eyes never leaving the poor, naked, seventeen year old girl. The girl tried to lift her head, but like lightning, Umbreon pounced on her chest; front paws on her face, thrusting it back onto the death trap below. "Naughty! Naughty!" He giggled, "Little girl must sleep tight, no moving!" Umbreon began to shove his paw down her throat, making her gag. The girl began to scream, but it was muffled from the huge, oversized paw choking her. Just as her eyes unfocused and her body relaxed as death tried to claim her; Umbreon withdrew his paw, the girl gasping and choking for a breath. "You thought you had it easy there! But Umbreon won't let you have the luxury of death... yet!" He neatly leapt off the table, his back to the sobbing girl, and made his way over to his wife.
Espeon had no emotion in her face, but because her husband was used to this, he didn't ask about her detached look. Her fur was long and sleek, cleaned to perfection. Strangely, her fur was not a purple or pink like other Espeons, nor was it the rare shiny green, it was a colourless white. Her eyes were red, an odd combination. Her looks were the thing that Umbreon was drawn to when he first saw the beautiful, dainty and quiet Espeon.
"Having a good time, my dear?" Umbreon questioned, "I'm glad you decided to join me on today’s work!" He was salivating and had foam lining his lips.
"She is in a lot of pain." A rich, confident and lush voice came from seemingly nowhere. Espeon, unlike her husband, did not need her mouth to speak, only her thoughts. Espeon slowly nodded to herself, "I feel her pain." She turned towards her husband, letting all three of her eyes gaze upon him. She saw an overly big, powerful Umbreon looking eagerly back at her. His head would reach an adult's waist, his body was one metre long, thick and chunky muscles bulged out of his sides. She was half the size of him, and only half as strong in body power. Umbreon's fur was normally well kept, but now it was splattered with blood and gore, a stench was coming off him, a smell that reminded people of death. His eyes were a bright blue, like ice, and they were twitching and dancing in their sockets. There was no doubt that Umbreon was crazy, but his wit and cunning ideas made him a genius.
"COME!" He laughed gleefully, "Let us leave this cave and wash our bodies from this human filth!" He sprang around to face the girl, "I'll be coming back for you later!" he screamed, "I'm leaving you now so the poison can do it's work! You'll go CRAZY from the pain, but don't worry!" He said the last sentence with an almost kind voice, but it vanished in his next one. "It won't seem like anything when I'm done with you!" Umbreon didn't laugh, he just smiled and waved a paw goodbye. He then trotted back into the darkness, his wife trailing after him.
The candles lining the cave walls slowly melted as the girl moaned and groaned, finally the candles spluttered out, the cave falling into darkness, leaving the red haired girl to pine for her mother, leaving her to pain....
.................................
Flaming torches lined the rough walls of the tunnel, Umbreon was light on his feet, he had a spring in his step as he and Espeon strolled through the cave, going deeper and deeper underground. Espeon sensed her husbands glee, "Does torturing humans really gives you this much joy?" Her tone was not accusing, nor disgusted, it was light and casual, as if she was asking about his favourite past time.
Umbreon glanced behind his shoulder and gazed at the beautiful Pokemon, he smiled; looking almost normal, until he spoke his next sentence, his words filled with malice. "Watching them struggle and bleed, listening to their pitiful cries and their bones snap as I bite them, smelling their fear and blood, feeling their bodies tear and rip... tasting their flesh and chewing on their bones; this is a great joy.... revenge is joyful, do you not agree?" Umbreon spoke his words in a whisper, as if he was sharing a deep, dark secret. Body twitching and pulsing with excitment.
Espeon, as always, seemed to be emotionless as she listened to Umbreon's speech. She chose her next words with care, avoiding looking into Umbreon's dancing, insane, ice blue eyes, "Revenge is sweet, but what about the other humans? The infants? The ones who had nothing to do or say in that... Incident?" Espeon stopped in her tracks, refusing to move until her husband answered.
"Let them share the pain!" Cried Umbreon, he turned around and pressed his face against Espeon's, "They are still guilty! They are a worthless breed, there are no 'other ones' they are all the same!" Umbreon's voice became a low whine, "Look what they did to us! I am freeing Pokemon from humans! I'm the good one! Look at what they did to ME! Forgiveness is not an option, we must be rid of them!" Umbreon lifted his head and gazed down at Espeon, her head bowed down in fright, yet she did not cringe away. He waited until she dared to look up into his now hatefilled eyes, and muttered, "And why not we entertain ourselves while we eradicate the humans? Eh? Why not let us have a bit of fun?! Is that too much to ask?!" He strode away, humming to himself, knowing that Espeon would follow him, knowing that she would not speak up like that again for a while.
They walked in silence down the tunnel, Espeon emotionless, Umbreon gleeful, eventually they reach a small opening in the wall, they stepped through to the other side. Moonlight streamed down into the open topped chamber. They were in a circular room with mile high smooth, rock walls. It was a huge room, the size of a football pitch. Thick grass grew beneath their feet, soft and springy. A small lake rested in the middle of the chamber, reflecting the image of a full moon. The water looked peaceful and still, it gave off a fresh enticing smell. Espeon sighed, she felt better out in the open air, small purple flowers grew here and there, it was a perfect picture, Heaven. The place had no name, Umbreon found it and never thought to give it a name other then 'Home'. Umbreon ran over to the lake and gently swam out into the middle, washing himself from the dried blood, leaving a red stain in the water behind him. Espeon trotted over to a patch of grass that was sligtly longer and softer, she lay down amongst the blades, sleep begining to take over, her last thoughts were of the human girl, slowly dying on a bed of spikes. Sleep washed over her and she fell into the world of nightmares and dreams, dreaming of death and torture, she longed for the day her husband would see through his insanity!
