Vinny looked over wide eyed, a panicked look came across his face when he saw Augustine pinned to the wall. He moved closer to Shard taking his hand.

The figure gave a deep chuckle. "The Ice Gym leader will not be harmed, as long as you two cooperate. I may have not succeeded in taking the Temple, but I did certainly catch you two. Vinny..." The voice softened only slightly.
"You and Shard will be coming with me...there is alot I must discuss with you. Come quietly, and my Drapion will not break his spine." The voice ordered, as the Drapion squeezed tighter, making Augustine shout in his half-unconcious state.

Mikey nodded "Ya I hope so to." They wanted to get away from the cold.
Vinny noticed a slight change in their voice but didn't care he wanted Augustine safe. His side was starting to kill him, it hurt so bad.He gripped Shards hand a bit tighter.

Shard's hands clenched into fists but he knew they had to listen.

"Atta boys. Drop him." The Drapion obeyed the voice, Augustine dropping with a soft breath, still and unconcious. The figure nodded to the guards, who undid the bars and pushed at Vinny and Shard for them to move, the Drapion keeping its tail near Augustine just in case.

Vinny let out a pain cry as one of the grunts pushed against his wound. He leaned into Shard more trying to get away from them.

Shard took Vinny's hand in his but did as the grunts said and moved where they wanted him.

As they boarded the air-ships, the temple was left abandoned, ruined equipment inside with Augustine and his pokemon worridly around him. He awoke for a moment and groaned weakly seeing them leave, only to fall limp once more.
The figure gazed at the two boys, not able to be read emotionally, but training the mask on Vinny. It spoke. "Good to have you back, Shard. We'll have to re-instate Beeheeyem's treatment."

Vinnys breathing picked up hearing that and pulls Shard to him protectively, not wanting them to take his Shard away from him again "Don't... please don't do that."

"Hm?" The figure tipped their head, as the Beeheeyem paused. "And why shouldn't I? He was stronger and smarter and more useful under good control. He kept the Snowpoint Gym leader in line." The words were sickly humored. The figure then sighed softly.
"You've grown alot, Vinny..."

"I don't want to lose him again... You took him from me, I don't want him to be someone else again. Hes strong and smart the way he is." Vinny growled a bit glaring at the figure. The corners of his vision blackening a little. A look of confusion passed across his face at their words "What?"

The figure did not discuss Shard after that, saving it for later. They motioned for the guards to leave, before she let out her Cofagregious, her oldest Pokemon. It hissed in spooky greeting. The ship was quiet now, as the figure spoke. "I've waited and planned a long time to see you again, Vinny. Do you...remember your true family?" They asked, mask tipping in curious quietness.

Vinny frowned at that and shook his head "No.... I don't remember anyone.I don't have a family besides my pokemon." He replied confused as to why they where asking this, he was alone for the longest time with his Gengar and Banette at the time a Haunter and Shuppet.

The figure looked at the Cofagregious, who seemed to look at Vinny with a fondness. "She held you in her arms, when I could not." The figure sighed, as the pokemon trilled gently, her four ghostly arms reaching towards Vinny in a calm way, as though making sure he was real. The figure continued.
"I was too young to let you stay with me on the streets." The figure took off the mask, revealing a woman in her upper 30's giving a deep look to Vinny. Short dark hair framed her cheeks and piercing eyes met the boys'. "It's been a long time, my son. The ghosts raised you better than I ever could."

Vinny was shocked into silence, he stared at the person who called herself his mom. His blue eyes wide, years so many years he had been left alone, he wished every night for the longest time for a mother but now he wasn't so sure. He blinked as the Cofagregious arms touched him, he didn't move he didn't want to. Finding his voice he spoke weakly "Your... your my mom? I... you... why did you abandon me?" He asked her, he was having a hard time processing this.

Shard gasped softly, looking at Vinny. This person was his mother? This couldn't be happening.

"Oh, it's reasons no person wants to admit." The dark woman sighed lightly, a clear craziness hidden under her cool calmness. She spoke. "I had you young, your brother even younger. But you, I was going to keep you...but mother got into trouble on those nasty streets. They'd take you from me either way, so I left you where I knew the ghosts would care for you. Oh, we seem to speak to them. And they liked you right away. I swore I'd come back once I had the perfect gift for you." She turned to look out the large windows at the region below.
"The filthy world at our feet." She smiled sweetly.

Shard looked between Vinny and Her. "She's lying." He said softly. "She can't be your mother.."

Vinny stared at her "I have a brother?" He mumbled shocked by the news, this was over loading his systems as a felt a panic and anxiety attack starting to rise. He gripped Shard tighter as he leaned into him needing comfort from his boyfriend. The ghosts have talked a few times about a lady but he never gave any thought to it. "I.. I lived on the streets to... it was terrible. I was kicked around for being a homeless child even with the ghost pokemon protecting me." He voice broke. Vinny looked up at Shard unsure what to believe right now.

Shard held Vinny tight against his chest, wanting to give any comfort he could to his boyfriend. He looked at the women before them, hate in his eyes. He hated her for making Vinny suffer, for making him suffer.

"I know...but it took years to build this from the ground up...you were gone when I had the thought to take you back after I escaped prison custody...Oh Vinny. I do not expect you to forgive me, no. I simply want you to enjoy the suffering of our tormentors with me. Those people down there who allowed us to have to make decisions like that." She gave a snicker of insane humor.
"Besides, you have your boyfriend here with you too. A cherry on the top."

He didn't want people to suffer, he didn't want anyone to suffer. Vinny shook his head "No... I don't want that... I want to be back in Hearthome with my gym battling trainers." He said not liking where this ws heading and the fact that his mom seemed kind of crazy wasn't helping.

"Oh, I see. You simply have not realized how wonderful true power can feel. Over people like Augustine. Pretty people, ugly people. And he was pretty..." The woman sighed, before looking darkly at Vinny and Shard.
"Shard defended your honor and killed that foolish guard who insulted you. But how can he protect you when he's not under the proper control?" She hissed.

"He can protect me, he dosen't need mind control. Please don't do that to him." Vinny really started to panic then not wanting Shard under that again. "Please don't that that to him, please don't."

"It's simple, really. Agree to stand at my side, and I'll let you keep your boyfriend here with you. They can find any fool to run your gyms." The woman shrugged, looking sharply yet fondly at Vinny.

Shard shook his head. "Vinny please don't. I'll be fine. Please don't give into her." He begged softly.

"You'll just mind control him again. If... If I stand by you please don't do mind control Shard." Vinny pleaded, he loved his gym but he loved SHard more. "You wont be fine SHard. You won't be you and I don't want that to happen again." He said looking up at him.
