Cynthia's

Written by True Blue Pikachu

"I'm not Dawn..." Johanna's voice said to you, laced with venom. Your eyes widened at Johanna's uncharacteristic tone, "Huh? Then... who was that goo--"

Suddenly, you felt a hand grip around your throat and see Johanna with her arm outstretched and her face full of fury. Johanna's voice then said, "I'm the Champion of the Sinnoh region! The same champion who's body you've stolen and played with for your own selfishness! You're gonna regret giving me a body to **** the life out of yours with!"

You quickly smacked 'Johanna' in the face and pushed her away in a fit of survival and coughed to regain your breathing, "*cough, cough, cough* Y-You... That goo was... Cynthia?!" The moment you said that, you then remembered something more important, "Wait! If Cynthia's in Johanna's body, and I'm in hers... What happened to Dawn?!"

"Gone... You erased her when you merged with my body, you monster!" came the cry of a heartbroken Johanna. Or rather, the lamenting Cynthia. Cynthia pushed herself up and looked at you in her old body with pure rage, "If you want my body so bad, fine! Take it with you down to the depths of hell where you belong!"

...Cynthia is right. I do belong in hell for what I did to her. You thought to yourself as you let Cynthia's words sink in. And hearing it from Johanna's voice, the voice of Dawn's mother, made you feel even worse than when you thought you killed Cynthia herself.

Upon seeing the regretful look upon her former face, Cynthia walked over to you and grabbed you by your blond hair, "About time you understood the atrocities of what you've done." Pulling you up and making you look at Johanna's face, Cynthia sneers down at you, "But you're far past the point of forgiveness after what you've done to both Dawn and myself!"

"........!" You had nothing to say. All you wanted was to have Cynthia's sexy body to yourself, and you took away not only her life, but the life of another girl who's done nothing wrong to you.

An above-average-strength kick to the side of your head returned your focus to your surroundings and physical pain. Cynthia then tells you with contempt, "You're lucky Johanna's body isn't strong enough to put you out of your misery. I won't take her life like you took mine, but I'll make absolute sure she knows who you are and what you did to her daughter. I may have to acquire another body to communicate with her, or link my own mind to Johanna's body. ... Actually, I may not be any better than you at that point. But I promise you... no matter how low I have to stoop... I will come for you... and END YOU!!"

Cynthia/Johanna's enraged scream was your cue to run away. It didn't matter if you could possess Johanna's body now. You'll be kicked out and ejected and your work would be rendered useless. So, gathering any clothes you had yet to put on, you did the only move you could make: And that was to get the hell out of dodge before Cynthia changed her mind.

Leaving Twinleaf Town...

Soon after your ran away, fully dressed and rushing past the wild Pokémon and avoiding all battles with other Trainers (Neither you nor Cynthia brought her Pokémon anyway), you found yourself inside a dense forest, the Eterna Forest maybe, where your panting breath was all that you could hear. Soon after, you tripped and fell on the grass and next to a body of water.

As you pushed yourself up to your knees, the tears that were in your eyes ran down your cheeks like a waterfall. The words of Cynthia/Johanna were still ringing in your mind. You knew it was Cynthia in control, but could you have blamed Johanna for saying the same thing? You sacrificed Dawn because you wanted to have Cynthia's body permanently. Even if she was your dream girl, you didn't feel a sense of enjoyment anymore after what it really cost you.

Even when you looked to see Cynthia's reflection in the nearby lake water, seeing her face now only made you feel worse and worse than you already do. Letting out a roar of frustration, you drove your fist into the water, your rage induced screams scaring away nearby Pokémon.

"URAAAAAAAAAGH!!" Cynthia's voice echoes in the forest as you held your head in agony, "All I wanted was to have fun with Cynthia's sexy body! I didn't care what I did to make her body mine! I didn't care who I hurt! I was selfish! I wanted to be gorgeous, and I got what I wanted! But along the way, I effectively killed *her*! She doesn't even have her body anymore! And it's all my fault!" You fell back onto the grass of the forest grounds and found yourself unwilling to get back up. You cried to yourself and closed your eyes, awaiting a wild Pokémon to attack you while your body was defenseless, "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry, Dawn... So sorry..."

As you were about to close your eyes for potentially one last time, you heard a familiar voice say to you, "No need to worry. All will be right again soon."

"H-Huh?!" You suddenly open your eyes wide open and look around. You didn't seem to find anyone, but the voice was clear as day to you.

That voice... it was--
