[ Roughly eight decades ago…]
"I do not understand, Ethan, what good would it do to leave the territory when you have the perfect haven to beco a ghost master?" The elder man looked at his only son with apprehension. "You may think that you ran away, but in truth, we allowed you to travel all across Kanto to give you a taste of the life outside our haven so that you might realize the futility of your beliefs. We never anticipated that you would get lost in your delusions."
Ethan, now nineteen, simply looked away. He was tired of the rigid laws and traditions that his father, Artemis Ainsworth, upheld with great faith. Over the centuries, the House of Ainsworth had produced so of the most powerful and accomplished Ghost Masters in Kanto and the surrounding regions, so much that the na Ainsworth had co to be associated with mastery in ghost types. However, it was also true that the accomplishnts dated over several generations, and there seed to be an acute shortage of such accomplishnts over the last three generations.
"I am only trying to stand up to the Ainsworth na, father." He replied, pride filling his voice. "We have stagnated, and we need to change in the coming tis. We cannot just pretend that the world is all the sa."
"Hah!" The sixty-ish man laughed. "If one also changes with the changing world, then how will one know that the tis have changed?"
Ethan rolled his eyes. He had left Lavender Town back when he was fourteen, with his Gastly who was born with the monster gene - who had, through training, effort, and experience, evolved into a formidable Alpha Haunter. He and Haunter had faced the Draconids of the east, the Blackthorns, the Wataru people, the Caucasians, and the ice-people of the north. He and Haunter had grown in their self-imposed exile from ho, learning, experiencing, and growing.
And now he was back for more of his family's residents to experience the larger world outside. He had… simply not estimated the true breadth of the situation.
"You ran away, dreamy-eyed like that, stayed out of communication for years, married that little skank from the Bavarian cliff-"
"Her na is Emily, and she's my wife. I'd request you not call her that." Ethan growled.
"Ha!" Artemis laughed. "As if so fisherwoman would ever beco the lady of our elevated na. Admit it, Ethan… you have made many mistakes, but this is the end of it. I will not allow anyone to muddy the Ainsworth na to suit their foolish fantasies, not even my heir." The man's eyes shone crimson red. "I thought yourself capable of listening to proper advice, but it seems that won't be. I will have to show you the error of your ways, no matter if you want to accept the truth or not."
Almost instantly, sothing large and powerful gripped Ethan in behind, as two crimson eyes glowed in the darkness behind him—said creature's powerful claws gripping his shoulders, squeezing them to the point of hurting.
"Caesar." Ethan almost whimpered, as Caesar—his father's Haunter, began to slowly manipulate the ambient ghostly energies that Ethan's body had soaked over the entire ti he had lived at the mansion, making the young man whimper in agony. "Father, tell him to stop."
"He will stop when you realize that I am the head of the Ainsworth na and that you are duty-bound to follow my orders." The man barked. "Caesar, bring him in."
But Ethan had other ideas, like managing to push his elbow into one of the Apricorn devices he had managed to acquire from a craft smith in the Canyon, in which pokémon could be stored for short intervals of ti so that they could rest when injured. Sadly, the devices were quite fragile, despite being handy. So it was no surprise that the Apricorn ball fell from his robes to the ground, shattering into several pieces, as a dense cloud of dust and venomous gases shot out of them, condensing furiously into the form of a Haunter.
