I want to kill them all…

Red shivered as he felt Lance tighten her arms around his waist. He wasn’t … really afraid of his lover, but sometimes, he wondered why they were even together. They were opposites, diametric poles of the spectrum but intertwined so closely by the threads of Fate that he could hardly tell where one ended and the other began. Lance had beautiful eyes like gold and long, red hair, and she was pretty enough to be a girl, but she didn’t really act like one…

They were supposed to be enemies. His Pikachu had nearly killed Lance at Cerise Island. The Elite Four had frozen him on Lance’s orders. So why…why was he in love?

He didn’t know, and it frightened him.
