Lyra smiled. "Perfect. I heard about Team Rocket. Money and power. Those are the things I really want."
"Lyra, what are you doing?" I still couldn't believe what I was seeing.
"Ethan, leave. If you're not going to join, you should just go."
Tears started to swell up in my eyes. "You said we were going to be a team and travel Johto together."
Lyra ran towards me, grabbed my neck and pinned me against the wall. "Listen you little bitch, I dont care about you. I just like tormenting you and for some reason you keep coming back for more. So, these are your options you can leave and go on your little Pokemon journey or you can stay and let me keep abusing you."
She let me go and I started to climb out of the well. Part of me wanted to stay. I loved how she treated me. I loved when she called me a bitch or how she would smack me when I disobeyed but I couldn't live like that. She was an addiction and I needed to get away. She was going to become a criminal and I hoped I'd never see her again.
