Under Construction

“I… have unfinished business…I’ll be back though.  Don’t tell Guzma or Plumeria you saw me if you go  back… I don’t need them coming after me.” She swings the bat a few times before putting it back over her shoulder, she seemed… prepared for something. Even worse? she was carrying that bloodied bat… what was she doing? Her head seems to lower and she focuses her gaze on the ground before looking back to Gladion. “If I don’t come back don’t look for me okay? It means that….It  just means that something bad happened and I don’t need anyone  looking for me.” She continues to walk (limp in her case) away from the walls, but she stops and looks back to him again, a smile on her face the moon making a beautiful shine in her eyes. “I’ll come back though, I can promise you that.”

Why was she being so shifty? Perhaps she was going to do something illegal, but then again, wasn’t that the entire point of Team Skull - doing illegal things? Why would she need to hide it, then? Argh, he was thinking too much about this, why did he care?! Rae, no matter how cool or pretty, was just another grunt. He wasn’t supposed to care where she went, he wasn’t supposed to get close to them. 

Still, Gladion couldn’t shake this feeling of worry. That wasn’t like him. He prided himself on not getting attached, on never getting too close, not since Aether. Why, then, did her words move him so when she promised to him that she would return? He couldn’t shake this feeling that he needed to do something for her, help her. It was stupid, irrational, and probably gonna get him hurt, but still...

“Hell man, I don’t see why the other grunts don’t like ya!” She pulled out two blunts which she had in her pocket,she always had this shit on her. She removes them from the small ziplock bag they were held in and held one out to him. “Take it, i was gonna use both later but I mean whatever.” she then takes out her lighter from the other pocket.

“I scare them, I think.”

He took the blunt with an appreciative nod, and stared at it for a second. The truth was, he had never actually... smoked weed before, despite being around a LOT of the stuff in Po Town. He gave it a stern look and silently prayed that he would somehow be enlightened on how to actually smoke the thing.  What would she think of him when she found out he was... a prude?

“High.. man Now I wanna get high, you allowed to get high right?”

“I’ve got myself a quick and easy way out in my room.  A nice pistol loaded one. For protection mostly. You  get the gist yeah?”

“I’ve an entire list for all the ways I wanna die, so pretty fuckin’ badly.”

“Fuck yeah. I’ll be vice pres.”

“I had no idea we had an ‘I want to die’ Club.”

“………..”

“Damn son SLAY Who knew you got rhythm?  But this ain’t a nerd battle So take a second and listen You throwing garbage at me like some Pokedex But if I wanted sludge thrown I’d ask a Toxapex Started from the bottom Don’t need a new Rotom And I don’t need your moves cause I already got em! I hear a lotta words coming out of yo’ mouth But if you got nothing to say this whole thing’s headin’ south.”

“And don’t be insultin’ my brothers and sisters or I’m a work you so hard you gonna get blisters You know what I’m saying right? The house bathroom’s full of shit And someone’s gotta clean it”

“Okay Plum, your First Impression got you introduced, But go back home, little bird, shelter and Roost, Cuz when I Acid Spray, I leave you Dazzled and Confused, And I’m ‘boutta go monster, I got my Beast Boost. I’ve had enough of these wack rappin’ Yungoos, When I’m sittin’ on my throne, I’m the Totem Gumshoos, My rhymes is Sheer Cold to all you snifflin’ Cubchoos, Like Plusles and Minun, your garbage Grunts come in twos!”

“Don’t get jealous just cuz I’ve got a Metagross mind, I’m not just intellectual, I Surf flows like Mantine. And I’m not your personal janitor, just leave that to the Muk. (Looks like you already dyed your hair with one- Yuck!) You might be able to beat me if your team wasn’t pathetic, Your attempts to start a fight were honestly emetic!”

IT’S YA BOI GLADION, spittin’ with Ninjask speed,  Say I got Fire Fang cuz I’m always spittin’ the heat, I’ll body anybody in a battle, just gimme a Volbeat, I’m dancin’ in my element and you got Tangled Feet.

“If you wear flannel, that would be very badion.”

“That sounds radion, Lil G.“

If I were to wear flannel...
