Let's explain the title.

First was the fight against Brock, the Gym Leader. Wartortle made short work of his pokemon while he hardly said a word. He only shook the guy's hand because he was nice about it. No other reason, the guy could die for all he cared for.

Then there was Leaf. She wouldn't leave him alone, so he dealt with her. And she chose to get Charmander, so Wartortle made quick work of the small pokemon. And while yes, she was wailing, he didn't care. He didn't even utter a word as he walked away.

Finally there was Blue, who made quite the complaint. Butterfree dealt with his team in a short time while he simply walked away from the tantrum. He rested at the center with Persian resting on his lap, which got him to sleep easily.

After that it was not bad. He kept tearing down trainers until he clashed with the duo again. Annoyances. And he had just ripped a poor kid down, leaving them crying. Oops.

"You should be nice!" Red gave a soft hum as he let a hand drift across Persian's back. "The kid didn't do anything to you." No reply as his mind clouded with very dark thoughts. Sure, the kid didn't do anything. But he had rage to prepare to drop onto the region.

More battles after that before Leaf questioned him. She made sure Blue was there after he forcibly did a move that made the kid race home in tears without any guilt so he could see his answers. Not hear, see.

"What are you doing? You forcibly made that kid cry!" He shrugged, not giving much of an answer as he went back to the center.

He found a lovely place to rest for the night before he pulled out a picture. His sister was only three, yet, the picture was just days before the incident. It sunk deep as he let the rage shake his soul. He then brought it close with a deep breath. Not yet. He had to conquer the region first.
