Chapter 25 - The Meeting (1/2)
'What should I say? Should I lie? But I have done nothing bad, why should I lie?....' Axel kept thinking. For a boy whose head was about to roll, he was doing pretty good.. mentally. ”Why don't you tell me your story of how you came to this world. And no lies” said the creature.
'Dammit! This guy could read minds.. Sigh! I guess I will just tell him the truth' he thought. Then he went on explaining how he died in a place called the earth and how he was reincarnated in this world. He also told again and again that he didn't do this deliberately, cause apparently, the creature was mad cause he was from another realm.
”Hmm… listening to your story makes me feel that it really is not your fault. And that place called earth seems like an interesting place. But you are a trespasser from another realm so I actually came thinking to end your life.” And the creature stared at him and paused for a couple of seconds. The psychic pressure generated from the creature's purple eyes was suffocating. The gale was rustling very loudly was it just wanted to break from the psychic pressure. This was the movement he knew that his life was on the line.
After some time the creature said, ”But since you have done nothing wrong, you can keep your life.” And the psychic pressure stopped as the eyes of the creature changed from purple to blue. Axel finally sighed in relief. He sat properly with his legs crossed and took a deep breath. He never expected his encounter with Mew would be so deadly.
Yes, the Pokemon making all this commotion was Mew.
It was really rare for people to ever meet Mew but those who have met Mew always described it as a friendly and playful Pokemon. 'You call this friendly and playful? And you kiss your mother with that mouth?' He thought, basically blaming the Internet cause that is where he had heard about the Mew's character. Personally meeting people who have met Mew was a dream of some people cause those were very rare.
”Relax mortal, since I have said to leave your pitiful life alone, I will definitely not go back on my word.” Said Mew trying to calm Axel cause it seemed like he was having a panic attack before. ”Since I have made some trouble to you, you can ask some questions if you have any that is” said, Mew.
Nidoran, Shedinja and Gogoat were also finally relieved that Mew had calm down. Though they didn't know who Mew was they could feel that its power was nothing sort of any God that they imagined in their dreams.
After calming down a bit, Axel said, ”Since you said so, I want to ask Senior Mew why were you hell-bent on thinking of killing me, just cause I am from another realm?” 'Senior Mew' may sound funny but he didn't knew how he should address Mew. Mew is the mother of all Pokemon so he wanted to sound respectful.
”This world is a like closed dimension. The space around this world is totally closed so it is very rare for an alien species to visit this world. I knew of your existence 13 years ago when you were born. But I cannot investigate you or interrogate you, such is the law.”
”What kind of this law is this? I haven't heard about those laws you speak of, nor are there any laws written in the library as per my knowledge” asked Axel. Since he was a child, Axel was a very bookish person and he used to visit the library almost every time. He was very fascinated by the world of Pokemon as the books in the library were more detailed than those of anime and games. But he had never heard these kinds of laws. Mew said the word 'law' 2 times now and he didn't know which law was Mew speaking of.
”Haha, if the law is not written doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. These are ancient laws made by Arceus and the first Pokemon master as a peace treaty. Every Pokemon that are able to think, follow this law. It is like the law, where you humans could not hurt Pokemon's egg or when they are a baby up to 3 months old” said Mew.
”Oh… next question, there are some rumors that I have heard about you, but now that I have met you, you seem to be quite different,” said Axel. Even in anime, he had seen Mew being very helpful and friendly. Plus he thought Mew was a female being 'the mother of all Pokemons' and all that. But this Mew he was meeting now was completely different. This Mew acted rude and arrogant and his voice was like that of Liam Neeson.
”Oh, you mean the cute little playful girl one, yeah… that is Mew” ”Then who are you?” ”Me… haha.. I am MEW!!” Mew declared with a loud voice as if it had revealed the true identity of 'Jon Snow' (From game of thrones)
Axel could neither make head nor tail of that sentence. 'So it is not Mew but MEW!!! The hell does that mean' he thought.
Seeing Axel confused, Mew explained ”At first Arceus only created Mew. But that Mew did nothing and would only play around, collect valuables and hide it, and played pranks with people. Being a Legendary Pokemon, she had many responsibilities and her responsibilities were only second to Arceus. But she did nothing and just played around. So, Arceus, Dialga, Palika, and Giratina created me inside Mew. We have one body but 2 souls. I do the hard work and she just enjoys life.”
