Chapter 30 - Truth

"Sid, what happened?" mom asked as I hugged her tightly, surprising her.

"Nothing. It's just that you care so much about me that I fear that you will spoil me" I said trying to not tell her that I know about her accident.

"You are my one and only son. If I don't spoil you that who would" mom said smiling

After sometime, I released her from my hug.

.

After sometime, we left the pokemon school and were going towards our mansion. During our time in pokemon school, mom and Grace teased my future wives..... I mean my female friends.

After we returned home, Rita welcomed us and we got talking about various stuff as we had a lot to tell like me getting three new pokemon and gaining z-crystals. We talked till it was dinner time.

We took our dinner and soon left towards the rooms. Mom and dad took the master bedroom while Grace spoke that she will sleep with Serena which Serena rejected immediately. So, she ended up guest room.

.

It was sleep time but I am cleaning my pokeballs, z-ring and z-crystals before going to bed where rockruff and bounsweet are already sleeping.

I have to do something about their habit of sleeping with me or when they evolve, it will be hard for all of us. As I was cleaning the z-crystals, I heard a sound

"Sid was acting strange after he talked to you" it's mom's voice. I could hear it clearly as the master bedroom is right next to my room.

"It's just that I told him your issue" dad spoke

"Which issue?"

"That one"

"You mean my accident?"

"Yes"

"What? Why did you tell him? I told you not to" mom asked rising her voice, it looks like she didn't want to let me know about this. Is it that she don't trust me enough?

"He have to know about it at some point and he is mature enough" dad spoke

"But you know..."

"I didn't tell him that who caused that accident" dad spoke interrupting her.

That means that the accident in which mom sustained that injury was planned and done by someone.

Who?

Who is it?

"That's good. I know that Sid could do anything dangerous if he knew about it.

He is really dangerous and I won't be able to live if anything happen to Sid" mom spoke breaking into tears.

Name, c'mon just tell me his name.

"Stop yourself. What if Sid hears? He is in the next room to us" dad spoke

"Yeah, I will" it looks like mom is trying not to cry out loude.

'If she doesn't want to tell me about it, I will find that person myself and I will destroy him.

Think Sid think, who is the one that can cause such danger to our family.'

.

'Yeah it could be him or someone of his calibre but if that's him than it won't be very easy.' I thaught while cleaning the remaining things and going to bed.

'I have to get stronger. By myself, by my pokemon and by my own financial condition so I don't have to rely on anyone else. Not even my parents

I will start with trying to find that Totem Alolan Rattata as fast as possible' I thaught while I drifted into the sea of dreams.

.

Later, I woke up as I heard someone on the door of my room.

I saw Grace coming inside my room.

"Get up, I know that you are awake" Grace spoke coming near me.

"How did you know?" I asked getting up.

"I didn't knew. I just said it as I thaught that you will wake up from the sound of unlock door"

"Does that mean you just said it without knowing that I was awake?"

"Yes"

I don't believe that Grace got me that easily.

"So, why are you in my room?" I asked as she might have a reason to come into my room during this time.

"I am here to ask about how is Serena doing"

"Didn't you just saw it today?"

"I did, but I don't know mostly about what she has done"

After that, I told Grace about Serena's journey in Alola region. Her catching comfey and decided to train to give island grand trials and mostly about her daily activities for sometime.

.

The next morning, we all ate breakfast together and Grace left with mom and dad as they have an important project just came up.

I dropped them to airport with Serena and after that, we returned at home. Serena started training her pokemon as today was an holiday because of the Alolan open house held yesterday.

I left towards Verdant Cavern where my first island trial was held against the Totem Pokemon Gumshoos.

.

About ten minutes later, I reached the Verdant Cavern as if I want to find about the Totem Pokemon Alolan Raticate from whom, I can earn the Darkinium Z.

I started searching for some clue about an other totem pokemon about half an kilometre near it because Gumshoos and Alolan Raticate have an bad blood between them.

.

I searched for almost an hour before finding the footprint of a pokemon which looks like of a raticate bigger than usual.

I started searching and found an place which looks like an base of many rats. I continued moving forward and found a Darkinium Z embedded on the top of a rock formation.

As I continue to move towards it, a horde of Alolan Rattata, Alolan Raticate and the Totem Alolan Raticate come out rushing towards me. They stop infront of me and they all attack me with hyper beam. I dodged the hyper beam by jumping on the ground.

"If they are not gonna hold back then nither will I. Come out everybody" I spoke before taking out my every single pokemon I hold now

They all attack with a hyper beam again

"Everyone dodge, than frogadier, Blastoise, Swamper, Inteleon and Kabutops use Hydro Pump

Charizard, Blaziken, Monferno, Incineroar and Cinderace use Overheat

Venusaur, Sceptile, Decidueye and Rillaboom use solar beam

Zoroark and Aerodactyl use hyper beam

Eevee use as much shadow ball as you can and Darkrai use the combo of dark void and dream Eater to take down as many as you can"

Everyone was taking down quickly, only leaving the Totem Alolan Raticate.
