[Game] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure: Celadon City Vandel

[Lord Windos]

'Ummmm, no sir, this is the first time I've heard about this, which is strange because Samael usually keeps me updated on this sort of stuff.....oops, sorry, getting off track here! ........Oh. It...it sounds like she isn't paying you a friendly visit, is she? ...If you don't mind me asking, why is she....'less than pleased'? Do you think she is going to be a threat to your safety, sir? Or is it something else entirely?'

'Huh.  You'd think an irate, recently appointed gym leader would be bigger news...guess Samael doesn't want word getting out.'

'Well, to keep it simple, I'm basically the black sheep in the family.  Clair's not a big fan of that. Guessing your standing with your family is kinda similar?'

'If your cousin's visit to Celadon is as 'pleasent' as you implied it to be, Samael might have kept quiet to ensure that the public doesn't panic over this, or worse, swarm Clair and overload her to the point of violence. I've been on cases where temperamental people have been pushed over the edge, and the result......I've seen murder scene cleaner than those messes, to be frank. Nasty and yucky.....'

Your connection with Angelica goes dead silent as you inquired about her family, and for a minute you'd though she ignored the question somehow when she finally 'spoke' up in an hesitate, nervous tone.

'......Sorta. Its....complicated. You....you wouldn't understand unless I gave you the full story, so let me....explain.'

'My mother......she was what you called a 'yandere' , sir. I'm not sure whether or not you've heard of the term, but basically its a person that is typically violently and psychocotically in love with their person of interest, and often takes any perceived threat to her relationship with her love interest rather.....poorly. From what she's told me, it apparently runs in the family, and my lack of that.....trait is what sets me apparent from my kin.....'

 I've gathered from her that she kidnapped my father from Jhoto at a relatively young age, and......conditioned him to feel the same way about her over their relationship. Managed to get their identities changed so that they could live in seclusion without having the Police or investigator tracking them down or sending up any flag. I was their first and only child, as far as I know, and I thought my family was perfectly normal, if a bit outlandish and silly. .......Learned that it wasn't when my dad tried to sneak off with me after he after he had....'A change of heart, honey. I want what is best for you, so I have to take you away from here. Far her. Far away from both, if my wish for you will come true.' , if...if I remember what he said correctly. He got caught by mom.

'......He died. Mom ended up going on the lamb with me for several months, until she was finally captured here in Celadon. Taught me everything about my family, about their.....traditions and practices, so that 'I'd know my 'legacy' and how to take care of my lover when the time comes' . Her....her words, not mine. I....I...didn't like what I heard. I.....I....didn't want to grow up to be...to be like.....like.....like THAT. I didn't want to become crazy, and perpetuate the cycle of suffering, of twisted love that my mom, her mom, their mom....all of them inflicted on their 'loves'.... '

'So, when I got out of foster care, I decided I would become a Police Officer, and do my very best to find a different way than the one my mom left me. I would become a defender of the weak, an agent of justice and the law, and just be kind and caring help towards others that need it. I would defy my 'legacy' , and maybe....maybe atone for my family's sins in the process.'

'.....I've visited my mom once, and told her of my job, my duties, and of my plans to sunder and bury my family's crazed history and traditions. I You know what she said? 'Whatever you do with you life,  you will always be my little angel, the one I cherish above all else. I'm so proud of you, Angelica, and nothing you do will ever change how I feel about you. Live free, and have a wonderful life, and know that I-I-I will al-always love you.'

'..............I.....I....haven't seen her since.'

'..............................................I'm *Sniff* ....I'm....s-s-sorry about this, s-s-sir. I.....*Sniffle* talking about mom....al-always makes m-me emotional. S-s-sorry.........'

She goes quiet once more.

That doesn't mean your keen hearing didn't pick up she was trying to conceal her crying from you and everyone else, though.
