Pokemon - A Mystical Journey 199 Chapter 9 : Mew's Tes

At that time, he has noticed that the life energy or technically it can be termed as aura in his body becomes richer and more active. It evolves his body slowly and makes the muscles more firm and compact.

His physical strength increased slightly as the dark energy that Mew sealed in Alex slowly fades away. And through continuous mental and spiritual attacks from the nightmare, his mental strength as well as mental defense increased sharply.

So Slowking just oversee Alex. But the thing regarding Alex that made him really anxious is time. According to Mew it would take him about an year to overcome the dark energy and completely digest it. But the speed could be increased if his heart and will becomes more firm than now.

Another task that Mew has given him was to help Alex overcome the shadow of the tide within half an year time. It is a test from Mew to determine his true potential.

If he manages to do it then she would help them more in the future as a close friend but if he fails, she would stay as an aquiantance only and won't help them improve their strength at a faster rate.

The news about the test is known only to Slowking and he had a mental imprint planted on himself by Mew to prevent any disclosure to anybody. He can guide Alex in the shadows to accelerate his mental healing, but he cannot come out and remove those terrible past images from his mind to help him recover.

He has to stop others from removing these images too. As for why Slowking agreed to the test, was that according to Mew, world will have great changes in the next decade and if Alex wants to protect himself and his family then he would have to grow stronger.

Slowking knew that Alex doesn't want his family to suffer and the training from Mew will help him grow stronger much quicker than he could on his own. Hence, Slowking agreed for Alex current mental torture.

Slowking continues to oversee his trainer sleep as suffer from the dark power enhanced more realistic nightmares related to his first experience as the captain as well as the commander of the Corps.

Location : Pallet town

In the Oak's laboratory, four people sat facing each other in their chair and had serious expression especially the only female of the group. She is almost livid and is held back by her husband from jumping on to an old man who just smiled nervously.

" You really went to wild, Professor."The cap wearing man who happens to be Red said softly.

" Wild? If you ask me, I would say senile. He has gone completely and utter nuts. " the female figure said while glaring at the older man. She was restrained by another man from attacking the older man.

" Now, now Green. Dad, isn't that nuts? He has his moments but I am sure this time he did it for a reason. Isn't it so father?"Blue turned to his father and pleaded because he felt that if he didn't then his wife will tear both him and his father apart.

The newly identified woman, Green was a brunette with shoulder length hair, blue eyes and angular face.

She has a beautiful face which was currently distorted due to anger at her father-in-law. She sat down with a huff and then looked at Samuel and mumbled," He better have a good reason or I will make sure you both father and son will stay away from Daisy and my next child until I am sure you both infect them with your idiocy and your mad behavior doesn't rub on them.

I will throw both of you out of the house and make sure you are at least hundred metres away from them." She warned them. And yes next baby. She had a baby b.u.mp a little bigger than Alex's mother Gwen symbolising she herself was pregnant and may give birth to the child a few days or week before Gwen.

This turned Blue white and he os afraid his wife may really do it and he tried to appease her by saying," Now, now love we shouldn't be so hasty. And it was completely dad's idea. I don't have a hand in it. It's all his fault." Blue didn't hesistate to throw the entire fault at his father.

" Don't act so innocent. Daisy told me you knew and how Alex had called you for advice but instead of helping him out you let him stay there. You are also one of the culprits here. " Green said while her intensity of glare only increased with time.

And all the pokemons as well as the trainers only lowered their head in defeat in front of her.

Blue too lowered his head but when he thought about not getting to meet his beloved daughter and his currently unborn baby he braved himself and retorted," You cannot do it. I will not yield. You cannot bar me from meeting my kids. "

" Is that so?" She said with not so hidden riddicule in her eyes.

"Y...yes" he himself wasn't so sure and said.

She then turned to the pokemons on the room such as Samuel's Charizard, Dragonite, Alakazam and Xatu, Blue's Blastoise, Alakazam and Nidoking , Red's Charizard, Snorlax and Pikachu along with Green's Venasaur, Clefable and Ninetails and said," I think you all can make sure these two do not infect my children with their recklessness and idiocy. Can I give all of you the job of keeping them away?"

All the pokemons replied positively.

Venasaur said," Venn...a.aaaa.... sssaaaurrrr"(' Don't worry Green. They won't reach the younglings.')

Dragonite said,"Dddraagg... Oooo .. dddd..rrrraggonnnmitttee."(' I won't let them harm the kids. My son Charmeleon suffered so much because of these idiots mistake. How could you harm your son like that.')and she glared at her mate, Charizard.

Charizard, on the other hand, tried to say something but Dragonite face told him she wasn't willing to listen and he looked at his trainer and mumbled" Rraawww" (' You have a good reason to appease them or I will not help you in calming them down.')

Samuel on hearing this just sweatdropped as his most loyal partner abandoned him to the wrath of the females.

Samuel Oak has a lot of t.i.tles to his name, such as Champion Oak, Professor Oak, Samuel the destroyer, The apocalypse and many other.

Any one of these can put fear in the heart of the people who know the meaning behind these t.i.tle and the incidents which let him to earn these t.i.tles but now none of them are of any use. He is under the siege of his own Pokemon and his daughter in law.

And he decided to bite the bullet and said it ," Alex had met a Legendary pokemon. " started to tell them some things.

" What ? Since when?" Blue intervened.

Samuel just glared at his traitorous son and said harshly ," Don't interrupt me. Let me finish first."

" Alex had met Mew. When I don't know but I too had encountered Mew in the past. At that time, Charizard, Arcanine and seaking too met her or at least saw her figure. She didn't stay for long and just flew past us. Arcanine has remembered her scent.

Mew often visited his farm and so he later revealed to me about her appearance at that place. If it is just once or twice It would be just a coincidence but her repeated arrival meant she is close to Alex.

Alex is too weak as of now to protect himself and his family especially since Mew is involved so I decided to help him. I decided to let Alex show more of his talents in the Tide. This way he could gain strength faster and would have enough qualifications to make the others think twice before attacking him.

This will earn him some time. If people know about her appearance there, then they would at least spend an year or two before actively attacking Alex.

By that time, at least one of his pseudo king Pokemon would at least reach peak Pseudo king and a few more pokemons would reach pseudo king too.

At least by then he could hold back the enemies long enough for our reinforcement to arrive and help him."

These words quiet down everyone there.

How will they react to Alex's relation with Mew? Stay tuned.
