Pokemon The Force

It's been a week now since Soul's dad came back home. His mom took a week off to spend some time with his dad, as she wanted to help him with his new 'condition.'

Soul mostly acted as normal as possible in front of his parents, but when they not there, he would go hacking on his dad files and trying to find the truth.

From checking his profile, looking through his phone calls, or even what his life was before, Soul was born.

He only found a little to nothing useful. The only thing he founded out was that his dad used to work both as a researcher and engineer for some company named Starlight?

And also he had a file that he deleted, which was called 'Project S.L.' It wasn't completely deleted, so there was still some files there, he could extract back to his laptop.

The files about it just had some weird reports, about experimenting and making Pokemon stronger. He was honestly tired and wants to go and confront his dad about it.

He just didn't know what would've happened after. What if his dad worked for some evil organisation? What would his mom think of him? Will they divorce?

His Pokemons seems like they knew, that Soul was very tired and always try to distract him, by making him do others thing.

It worked only for an hour before he went back to work on his computer again.

There were once a time where, he didn't get any sleep at all for one whole day, so he had some black eye bags under him.

His parents were worried and asked why he didn't have any sleep, which he replied with "I wanted to watch the whole season of my favourite show."

The more he works, the fewer times he had to spent with his family, pokemon and even himself.

It got so bad, that one day, his parents forced him out of the house to do whatever he wants outside with no electronics.

They had also ensured no one would allow him to borrows their electronics.

So he just decided to train with his Pokemons again, which they seem to be very excited of and try to make as interesting for Soul as possible.

After that day, he was limited with only six hours of electronics per day. He was shocked at first but understood that his parents were worried about him. Heck almost everyone was worried about him.

But he did gain a few pieces of information and if he wanted to have some peace in mind, he needs to confront his dad.

After they finished eating their dinner, Soul asked if he could talk to his dad alone. Both his parents were surprised but did what he said, as now both of them are outside of the house and are walking to a hill.

He turned to look at his dad, his eyes showed no emotions or whatever.

Sou: Dad what is Project S.L.?

Surprised by the question, Fred calmed down. He knew that his son was a genius from the start and wouldn't do what he says and follows his heart no matter what.

He sighed and took off his glass and rubbed his eyes before putting them back on.

Father/Fred: I should have known that you didn't let it go. Come sit down next to me.

Soul did what he dad says and sat down next to him, looking up at the skies, where millions of stars could be seen from where they at.

Father/Fred: It's all begins when I was working as a normal researcher. Everything was okay, until 'that day', came.

Soul: That day?

Father/Fred: The day where I got offers to work with an unknown project. You know the day you asked if you could keep the egg?

Soul nodded as he continued.

Father/Fred: My boss… he transported me whole the way to Johto region.

Soul: Johto region?

Father/Fred: Yes, I didn't want to accept it, but he threatens to have me fired. I didn't want our family to face any kind of hardsh_i_p_s, so I accepted.

Soul felt happy, that his dad decided to work over to Johto region with so that they wouldn't face any hardship.

He frowned after and asked.

Soul: How did you lose your arm?

Father/Fred: I lost it to the 'experiment'. It took my left arm, before getting captured again. I sigh up. No way I'm going to lose my life when I have a family waiting for me back home.

Fred said as he chuckled a bit.

Soul: Doesn't that mean you're jobless now?

Fred body went stiff as he scratched his cheeks.

Father/Fred: Ah, about that, I asked Prof. Oak if I could work for him and he agreed. Looks like we've going to be seeing each other more often now.

Soul nodded again and there was silence till he asked.

Father/Fred: Well to be honest… It kinda looks like a Lugia, just darker version of it.

Hearing this, Soul's eyes widen. The thought about another form for legendary Pokemon similar to Lugia made him surprised. It's felt like, he knew, what its name is, but his mind didn't want to tell him about it.

Soul: What was the project about?

Father/Fred: About making Pokemon stronger or something. I only was there to make all kind of stuff they needed.

Soul: Who are they?

Father/Fred: I don't know… none of the researchers, who were transported there knew, who those peoples in black are.

Soul: I see…

There was silence once again until Fred asked his son in a serious and concern voice.

Fred/Father: Soul… I know that you wouldn't stop until you find out the truth about all of this, no matter what. Just be careful and don't get hurts or worse killed, ok?

Soul: I can't promise anything… but I try my best.

After the whole talk, both of them looked at the stars up in the sky until Soul's mom came with the Pokemons and joined them.

Soul: 'I should enjoy every moment I have now. After all, not all stars can live forever.'
