Stand By Me? Ch. 19
"Will you hurry it up!?!" Lese yelled as she tapped her foot impatiently while she stood next to the van.
Blue nodded as she stared at Mateo and the chibi. It almost reminded her of him, Kojiro, and that other boy... that whiny little blue haired kid that Rick had created for her way back when.
No. That wasn't right.
She had never owned any bishonen or bishoujo from the old Palatea gym.
She was an upstart trainer who came from pretty much nowhere to build that gym of hers.
"Let me guess." Blue jumped as she heard Nick's voice from behind her. "You're thinking about what you should have done with your life instead of this."
"Well, kind of." She whispered, trying her hardest to restrain the anguish she knew was in her voice.
"Doll, you're living a lie." Nick touched his amulet as he walked away from her, powering down to his normal form.
Blue didn't know whether to be angry with him for saying such a thing, or to cry. He was speaking the truth. If anyone, ever, knew her whole history, her gym would be taken from her, and she would probably be sent to jail. She was just as horrible as the Genesis trainers that Lese had disposed of.
"Blue," Lese screamed at the trainer, "If you don't get over here, I'm going to have 'tura omae o korosu you so fast..."
The blond smiled half heartedly as she walked toward the group standing near the van. She had lost most everything today- she was sure of it. Sure, without any remaining family, she wouldn't have any ties that could connect her to being Miyamato Myuu anymore, but what kind of life is that? Lese didn't understand her either. Blue wasn't created out of love... she was cloned to hopefully be the first Miyamato, the Poke-class bishoujo. She was to be trained to battle. She was going to be the first of a new generation.
If only the technology had been perfected, she could have been living the simple life as a bishoujo, just battling for someone else.
Damn Ge They didn't know how to clone an extinct specimen.
"Hotura," Blue smiled as she picked the chibi from Mateo's arms. "Promise me that you'll do everything your daddy, tousan, and Ele say, okay?"
The chibi wiggled her way out of Blue's arms and clung tightly to Lese's leg. "Lady, you're scary."
While Lese tried to repremand the chibi without laughing, Blue had burst in to tears. She was a monster. A horrid, inhuman monster.
"Blue," Mateo whispered, all but dropping his accent, as he pulled Blue close to him. "Let's go back home, okay?"
"I love you Yama...."
Mateo's eyes grew wide. Did she just call me Yama? "What about... him?" Mateo whispered, still trying to restrain his accent.
