Trouble in the capital

Kane Sinnoh POV

It was the first day of noble academy for my grandson Leo, he's a good boy, if a bit dense…. But he always puts in 100% into what ever he does, he's quite smart, kind and is very capable in training his Pokémon.

But having a decent heart is a burden in politics, especially when you're a royal, everyone involved is either trying to curry favour, or trying to stab you in back, and a lot of the times both at the same time, all to further their own agendas.

And I know having a true friend in politics is nearly impossible, so I went out to search for someone who might be able to watch Leo's back, not necessarily in politics, more as a friend and someone to talk to.

That was when I heard the rumours about Gideon storm, the boy was even better than the rumours made him out to be.

And after my visit, I knew the kind of man he would become, a man they would fear in both the royal and the noble factions... a man with true power that would see through all their bullshit.

Not just fancy promises or a good amount of gold in his coffers, no, brute power, at 15 he has at least 3 mid champion ranked Pokémon...and I say at least because when we were being towed around in a board by his azumarill in what he calls knee boarding, I felt something underneath the lake…..something big...and powerful, it was watching me, not in hostility, but watching all the same.

It felt like the same gaze as his houndoom, waiting for me to show aggression towards Gideon….

And the kingdom only has 3 "official" champion ranked Pokémon belonging to the royal family, but you would be a fool to believe that, a lot of family's keep their secrets hidden well…

But for a 15 year old boy to have so much power, it's unheard of, and I know I would be worried about the other faction getting their claws into him if I didn't meet him myself and spend the day around him.

He has no real ambitions outside building his own town in his own territory, no plans to rise up the ranks or rub elbows with the "bigger players", very small ambitions, and I believe it to after that day..

And don't think I didn't notice the people and Pokémon in "little town", his guards Pokémon were at least on par if not more powerful than that of the royal guard, and every single person I met from that place had aura…

Normally one would think it was some sort of secret guardian base, but when i asked his opinion about the "aura guardians" he replied with " those cunts are sus, there's no way they don't have some sort of shifty plan in the works", and language aside, I agree with him.

So if it's not an aura guardians base, Gideon either has a truely frightening eye for talent, or...…..he knows how to unlock aura….

Both frightening prospects for the aura guardians I'd say, they are quiet insistent when it comes to all things aura being in their fold.

As I'm deep in thoughts over the man, Gideon storm, my rooms door bursts open with no warning, but I wasn't worried I already knew what it was…..

Leo " GRANDPA, you're not going to believe what I saw today!?"

I turn around and see my grandson back from his first day, it's about an 2 hours to walk, but he has his own personal transportation, so it's not a big deal.

Kane " oh do tell my boy, satiate this old mans curiosity?"

Leo " well there was this big guy at the noble academy, and I seen a bunch of nobles approach him and they didn't look like they had good intentions and I was about to help out but than he...."

Leo " and after it was all over I wanted to introduce myself but he gave such an unapproachable vibe, so I let it go, maybe next time"

As Leo described the story, nobles, the boy and his Pokémon that were involved, I couldn't help but laugh, I knew who it was, and it seems he's made quiet the splash his first day….

Kane " hahahaha, quiet the tale Leo, I was just thinking I was going to go visit a friend tonight, and I think you should come along and meet them, I'm sure you would enjoy the visit"

Leo " sure, I haven't gotten anything planned, should we eat before we go? Or would we eat there?"

Kane " definitely eat there, you're in for a real treat I'd say....and probably best to bring an extra set of pants, just in case....."

Leo " ok?"

And after that we made some quick preparations and headed to my "friends" house

Viscount Samson orneal POV (Jannetts father)

Samson " THAT FILTHY LITTLE COMMONER BASTARD DID WHAT!?"

I'm currently in the capital to take care of some Pokémon egg shipments, as I heard the report of my grandsons day at the academy I raged and destroyed everything on my desk.

That filthy arrogant commoner has been a thorn in the side of me and my family for years, and now he was away from the storm houses lands, I could finally take care of him once and for all.

But for what he has done to my grandson this time... his death will be slow ...

For years I've tried to convert Victor storm to the noble faction, yet he Strongly remains neutral, normally we would just force him, but owning the the main city between biggest port city in Sinnoh and the capital, he is hard to influence, not to mention he has a good stable of strong Pokémon that would give even the stronger family head aches.

And not to mention his youngest commoner son….. Members of the noble faction and I have been trying for years to buy people on the inside of his little hovel of a village "little town" but no one seems to bite no matter what is offered…

And he's been constantly provoking my grandson for years for no reason, so what if he played rough with you when he was younger, you're a commoner, so you should shut your mouth and take it.

Commoners are below us, no better than livestock meant to serve us, i don't get how he can't see that.

But from the report of what my grandson has been through….. he has to die, he was going to perish in a bandit attack but now…..I'll have to think of something much worse….how dare he humiliate my family like that.

I walk over to the side of the room, where there is a small bell place on a small table and ring it..

*ding ding*

A butler comes in.

Butler " yes my lord?"

Samson " contact Martin, tell him I have a job for him, and I want it done tonight…"

Butler "right away my lord"

That filthy little rat won't see another sunrise, I'll make sure of it…..

Mc POV

As I sit on the back balcony of my room with a joint in hand, I start to go over todays events

After the little nude run I had my brother and his mates do, I finally found my first class, there was no orientation or anything it was just straight into class, which just as shit as I was expecting it to be.

First class was math, an hour of barely middle grade maths…..yes 2 + 2 is 4, good jobs guys, way to stand above the masses….

Second class was history, you're right Sinnoh kingdom has never been the aggressor, and stands as a shining beacon of justice and nobility, Im feeling the will of fire….

Third class, Pokémon and why humanity rules such powerful creatures... well the answer is we don't, they tolerate us, we would be wiped out in a heartbeat if they ever thought we were more trouble than we were worth….but that's not what they teach, they seem to think Pokemon fear us so they submit….so dumb…

Forth class, nobility and why nobles have the god given right to stand above commoners... this school is fucking retarded it's no wonder nobles are so fucked in the head, it's just a big propaganda machine, filling these kids head with ridiculous reason for why they stand above commoners and why they get to choose who lives and dies

I'm no hero, I don't mind killing people, I don't enjoy it but any means, but I don't have nightmares about it, this school is teaching them that anyone not of noble birth is worth nothing, and their lives SHOULD be decided by their whims, like if your having a bad day, kill a commoner to clear your mind, it's ok your a noble, they don't matter

Holy fuck I hate nobles even more now, these people are delusional psychotics, they are pissing off 1 legendary away from extinction and they are teaching this shit.

Well I know when I get my land it's gonna be as far away from these fucking nut jobs as possible….

And I'm brought out of my thoughts by a knock to the door….

Logan " my lord, his majesty Kane has come to visit you and your father"

Well suppose I'll go deal with this and get back to thinking of how to deal with the shit storms that are most certainly heading my way…
