Sprout was laying on his bed... looking up at the ceiling "what even was all that... a second me... and with a stable and loving relationship...." Sprout got up and sighed... "I don't even know what to think of it anymore.... he's gotten everything.... while I have... nothing...." Sprout looked down as he heard a knock

"Sprout? you ok in there?... I get what happened was quite a shake up but... you shouldn't let it get to you.. " Pollo was outside his door

"I get that but... whenever I try to forget about it.... something else reminds me of it......" Sprout opened his door..

"maybe we need to... look back and see how far you've come?.. that always works for me" Pollo smiled

"Maybe.." Sprout looked down and grabbed a photo book from underneath his bed

"I've thought about burning this but.. maybe it's good to look through it.." Sprout opened it and the pictures he saw.... caused him to immediately freeze... " huh?.. Sprout?..." Pollo looked confused

"kip...." Sprout's voice sounded shaky

{Legends: the haunting past}

/I this... a little too well ... this was after I witnessed mega evolution well.... suck the life out of my parents... I had nowhere to go... so ... I went out and hid behind a school... food was discarded there at least 3 times a week... it wasn't pretty but... I had no choice... until...\

Sprout sighed "what is it gonna be today..." he jumped into the dumpster and dug around

"great.... nothing..." Sprout sighed as his stomach growled "I can't keep doing this..." Sprout froze as he sensed someone behind him

"huh .... so you were right... there is a little trash bandit" A swampert walked up to them

"jeez.... they don't look too good.." The swampert got closer as Sprout started to back away.

"uh... he's scared?.. hey... it'll be alright..." The swampert pats Sprout on the head, leaving him in shock

/I don't know what that pat did back then .. but now I realize it reminded me of my parents... they'd always pat me on the head whenever I was sad.. I don't know why ... but it soon comforted me ....\

Sprout slowly stared to smile a bit

"huh .. I guess that did something?.." the swampert looked a little confused

"do they even have a family?.."

Sprout heard this and immediately shook his head

"urf..." The swampert sighed "normal I'd just leave ya behind but... there's just something behind those eyes... something that tells me you've been through a lot already..."

Sprout shook his head and sighed a bit "a bit too much..." he looked down

"you know what... maybe you could stay with me until I can figure out what's going on.."

Sprout immediately jumped up onto the swampert's head

"heh.. I guess you like that idea.... jeez... if the guys saw me now... they'd think I'm some kind of creep.. but I'm just trying to do the right thing.. right?.." He looked up at Sprout as Sprout nodded

"good.. at least you know I'm just trying to do the right thing.."

/so yeah... that swampert is well... kip ... I spent a lot of my childhood with him ... I kinda saw him as my father.. either though he wasn't.... no one did ... they just thought of him as one of those freaks.... if he was... things would be different... but he wanted to do the right thing... occasionally checking to see if he could just outright adopt me.. but.. there was something in the way of that... I thought I'd be with him until I was an adult but...

one day.... it happened../

Kip was keeping watch of Sprout, smiling softly

"I wouldn't be surprised if you evolved soon.. heh maybe you'd learn Rollout.. imagine how fun that'd be for you" kip smiled

"heh I bet! it could happen any day now!"

Sprout smiled until he heard something.. what sounded like sirens..

{Pasha town police! open up you kidnapper!}

Kip's eyes immediately shrank "He has no parents! how am I seen as one!?"

The door was immediately broken down, causing Sprout to run into a corner

"!? Sprout!" kip tried to run to him.... but... Sprout saw something he didn't... a gun... pointed in kip's direction... "Kip!" Sprout looked horrified.. but as kip started to turn around... it was too late...

kip.. was shot in the head.... killing him on the spot....

Sprout watched as kip's body hit the floor... left silent...

Sprout stood there... frozen in shock until he heard something..

"alright... take em in"

Sprout immediately ran underneath the Blaziken and out the door

"what the!?" They sighed before turning around, seeing Sprout run out at what seemed to be the speed of a car

"what!? what were they feeding them!?" they immediately ran off into their car and sped off after Sprout

Sprout continued to run, sliding under ing by cars and occasionally jumping over them

Sprout widened his eyes where he heard sirens... their rhythm almost sounding like the words... "no turning back" to him

nets were soon shot at him

"!?" Sprout immediately curled up, using rollout to get through a rather short gap in the wall ahead

Sprout sighed in relief, knowing no one could get to him now.. "ugh..." Sprout curled up by the side of the wall

he soon started to think about kip... that moment... it stayed stuck in his head..

\that moment kip died .... it sticks with me... even long after it all happened... I'll never forgive whoever it was who did it ... there's a reason I have such a sour feeling towards the feds... I wouldn't be surprised if that's why I became a hitman before well everything else../

Sprout closed the book and sighed as pollo looked at him in shock

"that's.... wow .. I... " Pollo couldn't even process all of this..

"I know... it explains a good chunk of things.. besides the crummy friend group I had .. ugh .." Sprout laid on his back "I think I'm just gonna try and forget this.... a little rest might do it..."

Sprout soon closed his eyes and fell asleep

pollo sighed/man.. he's been through a lot...\ Pollo soon decided to get up onto Sprout and lay on his gut before falling asleep.. as a sort of attempt to comfort him..
