Celeste and Porygon excitedly began to hack into the Indigo League system mainframe. True, most people could not afford the expensive Porygon from the Celadon City Game Corner, but she had managed to obtain one, and now she would use it to further her hacking career. She chuckled as she began to break through the firewall.

They really should employ better security.

Soon, she was inside. She laughed as she patted Porygon’s head. Porygon was already interfaced into her computer but now-…

Now she would find Red’s secret and blackmail him to marry her! It was perfect!

She began to scroll through the database, but what she found was strictly boring. His medical records were easy enough to access, but all that showed were the common diseases that swept indigo plateau and a few vaccinations. There was nothing really interesting, until she reached his birth certificate.

Well, well…

It seemed that the esteemed Champion’s father was the Dragon Master! She could use this inside scoop!

She giggled.

Lance sighed as he watched the hacker’s signal click off. Red opened his eyes, the wires connecting him to the Master Computer shaking slightly as he disconnected from the system. The computer hummed, happy with the Champion. Only the Elite Four or the Champion could connect to the system, which controlled all of Kanto and Johto.
“That vile witch.” Red swore. “I’ll not let her get away with this.”

“Yes, if she made our relationship public it would be quite unpleasant.” Lance agreed mildly. Red smirked.

“You want to kill her, don’t you, Father?”

“My, my. I was only thinking of erasing her memory and exiling her to a desert island. Must you be so direct?”

“She’d still starve to death there, slowly…” Red crooned, but then his eyes brightened. “She would suffer more.”

“Yes. Death is too quick and painless.”

Celeste sneezed, but ignored it and disconnected her Porygon, as she walked towards the phone to make a call.

The Champion picked up, and he sounded shocked, but he did allow her a meeting in two hours, so she dressed herself in her best clothes and went to meet him.

Lance and Red were both waiting. The Dragon Master was dressed in his normal dark attire but had foregone the cloak, and Red looked twitchy, staring into his gloved hands nervously. Celeste smiled.

So he had told.

“Now,” she said professionally, “I know your secret.”

“We could deny it all we wished.” Lance told her rationally. “After all, as only the Champion Challenger and Champion can use the Master Computer where the data is stored, there would be no proof to story unless you admitted you hacked.”
“Well, it’s my word against yours.”

“Exactly what do you hope to gain?” Red queried. “After all, I would hardly marry you.”

Celeste gaped.

“You were planning on forcing him into marriage?” Lance sounded almost amused. “Red…”

“Yes, Father?”

Celeste shivered; reading or guessing about incest was one thing. Actually seeing it happen was disturbing!

“Shall we?”

They both blurred, and when Celeste awoke, she found herself gagged and bound to a palm tree with ropes, out somewhere on an island under a blistering sun with all her pokémon and supplies missing.

She screamed, but no one came.

Lance and Red watched as she quickly dehydrated and died, screaming in agony. Then, they went to bed.

Red smirked as Lance slipped into bed next to him and kissed him.

“Foolish girl.”

“Nothing will ever keep us apart, right, Father?” Red asked.

“Of course,” Lance whispered, and Red smiled, a long, slow smile that sparkled with madness in his eyes.
