Easily I have not seen her for quite some time. I had a Seel awhile back... Out of all things, I used to call him Walter. Heh, must have been 1994...1995 since I saw her at that time? With my Seel alive? That is but another time... At this point I have been through hell. I had nowhere else to turn to. I of course did not even realize I am quite... negatively popular. See... I was TR's best Hybrid Hunter. Need I say more? Hmm. All my life I have seen the worst enemies, and the greatest friends. As what this next chapter of my origin could tell...

-----

Chapter 2- I’ve Seen Fire and I’ve Seen Rain...   

I walked to the front entrance of the Cerulean City Gym/Pool. The front door opened automatically, it was one of those laser-sensor doors. I walked inside, within in a hallway with aquariums of fish instead of walls.

Jim: ...Hello? ...Are you here Misty?

Misty(thinking): No... Jim... "Hybrid Hunter Ace" ...he's here... Out of all the times... why now?!

I noticed that Misty was silent. She was always the cheerful type, so I started to get worried.

Jim: Where are you Misty?

Misty(yelling): Go... back... Seel Seel!

Gulping to myself, I walked down the corridor of the hallway.

Jim: Wait a sec... Misty... I need to show you something... And what’s with your Seel?

I have heard it before. Hell, with Walter! The worst case scenario was wide open. PKH TF... 

Misty: Jim... stay away...

Jim: Uhh... What’s wrong?

I simply opened the next door. I walked out from the hallway and into the pool/Pokemon battle room. Large foam platforms are upon the pool. On one of them, Misty was present. Struck me as odd as she heard me and responded from that distance, but I did not take much care at the time. Taking a deep breath, I walk a few steps, eyes focused to her.

Jim(thinks): She looks a little pale to me... I hope she’s sick...

She was in a downward kneeling position. The bottom half of her legs are laying down to her sides, in a flipped downwards T position. Prayer position would be another way of putting it, but legs are to the sides.

Misty: Please... Seel... Leave... Seel Seel! ...me alone!

Jim: What the... hell?!

I looked to a corner of the pool, and found blood present. Looking to Misty’s hands, I see the same crimson stain.

Jim(thinking): Dammed... I missed it... "he" was here...

Who is "he"? The unnamed Hybrid. A rampart MewTwo Hybrid that has been TFing any innocent he sees. What does he do? Hurt a trainer's pokemon and fuse the pokemon to the human to watch the suffering. Apparently it detected my arrival, and departed to not enjoy his... show. Shaking my head as I stop the memory of TR's briefing, I saw the blood in the pool glowing.

Jim: Oh Damn.....I...just...missed him...

Misty’s eyes were filling with tears. She cries loud in pain as there a large flash of light emitting from Misty’s body. I shield my eyes. She stops glowing...I look at her.

Jim: Great.....

Misty looked up at me from her stomach.

Jim: ...you’re a Seel PokeHybrid...

Jim(thinks): She’s older than Walter, I can't slip up again... now I HAVE to get her.....Sorry kid.....forgive me.....

Jim: Misty, from the looks of things, you have been in contact with your Seel’s blood, then some pokemon used a Psychic attack on the both of you...

I looked all over her, biting my lip as someone who has helped me out when I was  younger, was becoming a Hybrid.  Her legs started to become molded together, but her tight shorts were still on. The shorts were partially ripped though. Misty had blubber on her body, giving her the basic body structure of a Seel. Her skin was lighter, almost whiter, whiter than Walter. Her shirt and suspenders were undamaged from what I could tell.  Misty’s forehead had a long white horn that protruded from her skull... wasn't a pretty sight. Her mouth and nose looked Seel-like with a muzzle and black nose, but was still noticeably human. Her eyes grew larger by height and her pupils became of a cerulean blue. She had small tusks to the sides of her gums, long enough that they come out of her mouth. I noticed that she had the large Seel tongue, Seel-size, but it’s inside of her mouth. Her fingers were stubby (skin near her nails are mostly nails) and had pale white fingernails. Below Misty’s tail/changed legs were her feet  in the same positions as Walter's. They looked larger than normal and her toes were stubby.

Jim: What...the...Misty....

She looked to me in complete fear, scared. Of herself? Of me? Me thinks both. Still, I did not enjoy her like that.

Misty: I’m...too late...Seel!!!

Misty started to lay down on her stomach near the pool, in a Seel’s normal position.

Jim: My... existence... is dammed....

She looked at me, tears flowing from her gentle eyes.

Misty: ;_; Please... I beg of you...

The thought of Team Rocket hunting me down, did not settle with me. Finding 2 hybrids and not eliminating them, would definitely get me a price for my ass. Including the fact if I did leave, TR would capture her. I'm not exactly the charismatic hero, so what choice did I have at that time?

Jim: -_- I... can’t... but...

I clenched a fist to my face at that moment. I had Walter's life to save... Was too hard for me to think, I just acted!

Misty: ...don’t... Seel! ...kill me!

Jim: ...but I must. Please, ...forgive me...

From my right side of my pants, I pull put from in my pants and outward to reveal a sword hilt. In it is a Short Sword, with a gold-colored handle., I took out my sword, looking over to Misty.  Misty looked at it in fear. The sword's blade is made of an unknown material, but can deflect or defend against elemental attacks. What was nice about it, is that it was the only memento of my parents, as well as the sword is as clear as glass, but always sharp. If I had to tango against a Hybrid one-on-one, it had never failed me for the most part.

Misty: ...Your... Glass Sword... Stained with so many....I never thought ..I... would be, seel a pokehybrid....Now, I beg you, while I still have my sanity...!

I saw her eyes starting to change. They looked like as if her pupils were enveloping all of the blue and white of her eyes.

Misty: Please, leave here... I... I'm losing control... from... being afraid.... of you.... Seeeeelll... Pleeeasseeeeeel....

As if ink washed over her eyes, they became black orbs. I looked to them, but I could not feel the soft presence of her. As tragic this may sound, that mindset may make me go on with this.

Jim: Misty, you do not understand. You never will...

With the sword in my right hand, I ran at Misty, ready to stab her. She realized this at the last second, and pushed her entire body with her strengthened arms and to  to the pool. As that happened, I shoved my sword blindly to the ground, breaking tiles in the process. 

Misty: Sssssssssseeeeeeeeeellllllllll!!!!!!!!!

The echoes of her cries deafens my spirit as she swims deep in the pool and then back up to the surface. Seeing that I missed, I return my sword back to it's hilt, and return it to my pants' leg.

Jim: Mental Block Type 3. Feral. Mainly of a harsh wild pokemon nature.

Misty then swam and charged blindly in a rage into a pool platform with her horn. The platform split apart and fell to the bottom of the pool. I jumped to the water with all of my gear intact and swam to another pool platform on the other side of the pool. After some distance of swimming, I started to climb up the platform from a wire rope.

Jim: Sigh... Her Seel side's Attack Level is too strong.. .Maybe I really can't kill her, even though I really have to. When I need back-up, oh right, I killed them a bit back.

Just as my right leg moved out of the water, I see in the water that Misty is heading out of the water and right for me. She jumps directly upwards, to my leg. The only thing I was able to do was to move my leg to try to dodge her. As a result, a long cut appears on my leg....

Jim: Ahh! ...My leg... ...I’m...I’m...I’m...actually...bleeding... you'll pay for this!

Misty emerged from jumping at me and stays afloat.

Jim:  What the hell do you want?

Misty looked at me with her heartless orbs, yelling to me. As much as I tried not to think about it, she still sounded human.

Misty: Seel Seel! Seel Seel! Seeeeeeel!

Jim: Dammit girl, wake up!

I let my right arm back, setting up for a fierce punch.

Jim(thinking): My Mega Punch? Heh, works for me.

I let the heavy punch land right to Misty's head, below her horn. Misty was sent a few feet away due to the rough blow. I moved my left hand over to my right, to aleviate some of the pain.

Jim: Ahhh... blubber messed up my hand...

Misty was looking to the water as she was recovering from the punch. The reflection of her eyes... started to make her mind revert back to humanity. It made her feel sad, that I attacked her in such a way, and that she attacked me.

Misty: Seel Seel... Seel...

In a faint and quiet voice, I heard the soft, voice of Misty.

Misty: ...Jim?

Jim: What’s that? ...Great...I give up...

Misty looks up, and tenatively starts to waddle close to me. In fear that she would attack again, I squatted down to the ground, and clenched my right hand tightly.

Jim: See if a Jump Kick would send ya the message!

I jumped with my left foot, moving my right boot hard to Misty's chin. I let out a I light hiss from kicking her with my scratched leg, but I stood, if but a bit wobbly. Now misty started to talk to me in a regular voice strength, only suprised and teary once again.

Misty: <:*O Seel.....You've changed....so much....

Jim: You know what? Screw this...

Even though my leg was starting to recieve extreme pain, I swam to the other side of the pool to get away from Misty. It was a good thing I did. I just pissed her off so much... ...that her horn started to glow a blue light....

Misty: < :* I  ...Seel...Aurora Beam!!!

Jim:  Now she speaks...

A white beam shot out of Misty’s forehead. The nearby platform was split into pieces. Seeing that display, I take a look to my leg, then back to the side of the pool.

Jim: Damn... My... blood...

Misty saw my line of blood in the water and swam right toward it. I swam as fast as I could so she wouldn't be able to  attack me. I started to climb out of the water, hyperventilating.

Jim: Misty...

I don’t really know what happened next... Either my leg moved at the wrong time, or Misty did it by accident, or it was it  purpose, but as I climbed out of the pool, she stabbed my wound with her horn! Oh that left a bruise... 

Jim:  AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!

Misty(thinks): Oh good god, please tell me I did not just... do... that... Jim... Please be okay...

After that, she jumps out of the water, and onto the tile ground, 20 yards away from me. Misty lands gracefully on her feet like a human, then falls to her legs behind her.  I eventually go to dry land, hyperventilating faster. Noticing Misty, she was catching her breath. I didn’t blame her, I was doing the same thing!

Jim: You... just... had to make me bleed... Aw man... I hate being hurt... let alone bleeding...

Misty: Jim... Seel... -pant- What a way for us to see each other again... You must listen to me! Stop this... madness! My pokemon side got the best of me... and for that i’m sorry...

Jim: Sorry my ass... The only answer is retaliation.

Misty: Please... Seeel... Jim.. .Before I hurt you further...

Jim(thinks): I have to take her down... now...

I took out one of my guns from my side holsters and fumble around my pockets.

Misty(moaning): Seel...? ...what...are you Seel? ...doing?

There was a click, as a bullet magazine was shoved to the handgun. I aimed the gun to her, gritting my teeth.

Jim: You... should have never attacked me! Now pay with your life!

Jim(thinks): Heh, now why didn't I just do this sooner...

While aiming the gun to her stomach, I looked away, assuming I did not miss as I pulled the trigger a few times.  As I look back, I find that Misty just returned to the ground from jumping. She was only 7 yards away from me.

Jim: I think... it's time... to panic.

Misty: Now... I must stop you seel from hurting everyone, anymore! I call thiseel attack... Flying TakeDown!

Jim: What..? A...Custom Attack? Impossible! ...I thought I...

I looked up. Misty just jumped 20 high in the air, looking down at me as if she was gonna cannonball dive at me. I struggled to move away from her, but with my leg seriously wounded, there was no way I would escape. Misty landed on me, slamming all of her limbs on top of me! She used her stomach to hold my entire body to the ground, and all I could do was look up at her.

Jim: Dammit... I’m dead...

Misty: Please... Seel...

I felt her stubby flipper-hand Slam my face. I blacked out...

---

...About a half hour to an hour passed. I started to wake, holding my head with my hands as I laid on my back.

Jim: Unh... I don’t feel so good...

I saw a first-aid kit near me, with my bookbag alongside it.

Jim: What the... weird... My leg’s... bandaged up... Who helped me?

I started to look all around myself. I then saw Misty to the left side of me, ten feet away, crying on what she had done. There were several ice packs on her legs. The move she used on me must have pulled some kind of muscle in her.

Misty(faint): What have I done? Jim ...oh Jim... He's the victim of all of this...

Jim(thinking): Oh jeez, Misty, i'm sorry... Looks like... ...I... gotta stop this... ...peacefully... ...before i’m dead.

Jim: Hey... Misty...

Misty pushed her arms to move her stomach, and moved near me. She held me up so that I could sit up.

Misty: Jim! Are you alright? Seel Seel?

Jim: What...  I’ve been scratched, smacked, pounced, and stabbed by you. Other than that... ...oh yeah, i’m fine...

She sadly turned her head away from me by that remark.

Misty: Just... tell me one thing... ...why do you Seel... ...want to kill us?

Jim: '_'  What exactly do you mean by "us" ? And when did you become a spokesperson?

Misty: I mean PKHs. The Seel inside of me, wants to help you, and so do I. Seel.

Jim: May I remind you, you don’t understand! They’re a disease that kills humanity! How could you know? You ARE part of the sickness!

That got a hostile look on her to sharply look at me.

Misty: Jim........you.......Ssssssssssseeeeeeeeeellllllllll sssssseeeeeeelllllllll!!!!!

Jim: '_';  I... ...Assume your Seel side just... cursed at me...

Misty: But... ...why...?

Jim: It is the basis of containing the outbreak of pokehybrids to the public for as long as possible. We do not want an escalation that would jeopardize humanity having a superior being against us. If it wasn't for us, hybrids will never know their place.. but... there is more....

Misty stayed silent, listening while petting my head.

Jim: ...I joined TR in their quest to kill pokehybrids, so I can get revenge...

Misty: Revenge? On what?

Jim: I won't say much but... -_- My dearest friends.....were transformed before my eyes.....and I had to kill them.....

Misty: Seel?! What?! 

She covered her mouth, as if she was digesting my words. Her hand started to lower after a few seconds.

Misty: No... That’s seel sad...

Jim: With the sword my parents gave me, they did not want to live anymore... I basically assisted them in a mass suicide... or killing. Joined TR to try to soothe my anger of all hybrids, but obviously I can't do it anymore...

Misty was all in tears. She tried to put her hand on my shoulder, but I shoved it off.

Jim: ...I don't want your pity...

Misty: Seel... ...now I understand why you want to kill us so bad...

Jim: Reminds me of my friends begging me to kill them...

Choking a bit, I started to get teary eyed.

Jim: Sadly, killing becomes alot easier when you keep on doing it...

As I started to wipe my own eyes, Misty put her arm up as she was hesitant to comfort me.

Misty: .....but..........Seel.......that doesn’t mean you should kill the innocent.....

Jim: 3 years of doing this has made me blind for seeing the innocent...

I saw her hold her arm back for a brief second, then she let lose a slam that pushed me against a wall, 5 feet out.

Misty: Oh, not again! Sorry... I will stop Jim... ...just listen to me, okay?

Jim: Alright I will... I know...I have to stop being this way. I already have a Seel PKH(pokehybrid) with me. Believe you me,  i’m going to protect him.

Misty(thinks): That caught me a little off guard...

Misty: Hmm... Show me him later...Seel...

Jim: Well, is there anything else to speculate?

Misty: You don’t have to change completely. Just stop the ones that Seel Seel! Seel... ...threaten peaceful lives. Not every single PKH you see is evil.

Jim: Yeah. Walter, the seel PKH I have, is a gentle kid...

Misty: Well, I'm just reassuring you. We're not all bad...

I let all of her words sink into me. I nodded in agreement.

Jim: Okay, i’ll do what you ask.

Misty: My best friends are hybrids also. They just look different, that's all. We're still together. If you see then, give them my seel regards?

I slowly stood up, nodding.

Jim: Thanks for still... being you, despite all of this.  Well...see ya around Misty. Stay alive...

Misty: You too. Seel Seel! Seel Seel!

I walked over to the hallway. A door closed behind me with a faint thud.

Jim: ...heh...It's interesting how one person’s lifestyle can change from just one experience... or 3.

..but I never noticed the door behind me open as I talked to myself.

Jim: ...time to go into my new life... ...alone... ...as always... ...I'm the outlaw torn...

Just as I stepped to the front door, Misty put her hand to my shoulder. This time, it felt so ironically good...

Jim:   '_' -(?) ...wha?

Misty: Poor guy... It doesn’t have to be that way...

Hesitantly, I let some time pass, ...her hand on my shoulder...

Jim: -_- Sigh...

I slowly put my hand on top of hers. 

Misty: '_' Jim... You don’t have to be by yourself in the world...

Jim: ...Thanks...

Misty: ^_^ Jim, is it alright if I come with you? Seel Seel? I wouldn't mind showing you my friends.

I looked behind myself to see her. She handed me my bookbag I forgot. Heh, so that is why she cought up with me, then all of this? Nice!

Jim: I guess so. It sucks to be alone, you know...

Misty(thinks): Believe me, I know..

Misty: Be a hero...not a hunter...then you’ll never, ever be alone.

Jim: Yeah.....that’s a good idea....

We stepped out of the gym in our own way, and looked up to the sky.

Jim: Oh, it’s great looking at the sunrise. From all of these few months, I had forgotten how beautiful it was....

Misty: It is beautiful Jim.

I gave a slight smirk.

Jim: Looks like a sunny day today......

Misty: What a good day to be alive..

We walked onward... Onto a friend of Misty's.
