Super Chu's POV:

The Dictionary defines defenestration as the act of throwing a person or a thing out a window...Really not my favorite word. I was thrown out the window of the mansion, The Big Man's party was being held at least twenty stories high into the sky. I steadied myself and prepared to fly back inside the building. It already had two smashed windows, what's the harm in a third?

I smashed another window flipping back inside, landing on a table. "Okay! Where's the dude with the nasty 'tude?" I asked then immediately was forced to dodge several Shadow Balls knocking the table over.

A maniacal laughter echoed in my ears and I looked up to see a Gengar with a white, Mega Gengar mask with a yellow, triclops eye, and extra quills down his head, standing on top of a Yveltal shaped flying glider. His voice was loud, obnoxious, and sinister. "Present, and accounted for!" He exclaimed throwing a jack o'lantern shaped bomb at me.

I dodged it and as it landed on the ground in a bright green explosion it let out a short screech that sounded like his voice. Leaping into the air I flipped over the heads of all the press in the building and he threw shurikens with  jack o'lanterns engraved into them at me. He continued hurling these at me and one actually managed to tear my uniform open. "Hey! Did I mess up your costume?! Lay off the threads pal!" I exclaimed.

"Ah! But the Ghoul Gengar doesn't take orders from Rodents." The Ghoul Gengar smirked. "The Ghoul Gengar squashes them into oblivion!"

He flew over to me and grabbed me spinning around and launched me into a table. "May I see your invitation Super Chu? Otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to leave." He mocked.

Man where do all these guys come from? First Rocket Cat, the Tombstone, and now this clown?! How could a night that was going so well go south so fast?




Normal POV One Day Earlier:

Pikachu and Gengar were in the elevator of Genar's Father, Romann's Mansion trying to figure out why they were there. "Maybe he needs help loading something somewhere." Pikachu shrugged.

"He's the richest man in the whole city. Why would he need our help with that?" Gengar asked.

"I dunno. You tell me." Pikachu suggested.

"If we're here for another scolding does it really matter?" Gengar sighed as the door opened.

"We aren't kids anymore Gengar. It's time for you to assert yourself. Sometimes he does have valid complaints. But if not, tell him you won't be pushed around!" Pikachu perked.

"Boys. Step in here!" Romann called from another room obviously overhearing their conversation.

Pikachu winced and drooped his ears. They stepped inside and he immediately tried to apologize, "Sorry Mr. Hex. We were jus-"

"Don't you dare apologize son. I never do." Romann smiled.

He was a Gengar just like his son. He had a scar over his left eye that he received defending his family from a robbery many years ago. His voice was calm and collected as it always was. But despite this, he was still very intimidating. "Now Pikachu. While it's good to see you, I called you boys here because I have a proposition for you two. Pikachu, it's my understanding that you're currently out of work, correct?"

Pikachu broke eye contact looking down in shame and simply said, "Yes sir..."

"Your employer's loss. I've seen what you're capable of. Especially when you helped Gengar with his homework in high school." He smiled, unfazed.

"We would help each other sir..." Pikachu remarked trying to give Gengar some credit.

Gengar started to smile but it soon turned back into a frown with his father's next few words. "Now now, modesty doesn't become men like us. Smart, driven, responsible, self made-" He started.

"I'm more of a work in progress," Pikachu humbly cut him off.

"At least you're making progress..." He coldly responded. "Now. The reason I brought you both here is because of your working conditions. Gengar, you're currently working in the field with my colleague  Dr. Slump, and Pikachu, you're unemployed. I have a proposition to improve both of your incomes."

"...Let's hear it dad..." Gengar said melancholically.

"I'm willing to promote both of you to the heads of the laboratory internship of Hex Corp. It's an eight to six job that pays handsomely for every half hour of work. You want in?" Romann proposed

Pikachu thought about it for a hard minute. But in his heart he knew he couldn't accept. Not only did he have his role as Super Chu to consider, but he also had Glaceon and an aging mother to take care of. "Thanks for the offer sir...but I can't accept...I can't work that many hours when I have to take care of my mother...She's not getting any younger and she can hardly take care of herself these days...I can find my own work. And for now it needs to be something with less strict of a schedule." Pikachu explained.

"Not just a man of integrity but a family man...I respect that. The ones you love always come first." Romann smiled, "And you son?"

"S-sure! I'm down!" Gengar timidly accepted.

"Excellent! You'll start first thing tomorrow morning! Rest up, and act sharp my boy. Now you run along. I still have some questions to ask Pikachu." He said prompting him to leave.

"Yes sir." Gengar nodded and left.

"Now Pikachu would you like me to make a few calls? I can see what's hiring and put in a good word for you. You're like a brother to Gengar. That makes you family." Romann asked.

Meanwhile standing by the elevator Gengar popped open another vial of the green liquid and downed the whole contents of it. He shivered then walked away.




"-and then he just fired me. Just like that...And now I'm struggling to find a job to support Mom and Glaceon, on top of my heroics as Super Chu...I can't take much more of this Eddie...And the other day she almost got raped..." Pikachu vented to a cousin that knew his secret.

"Look, you're 19 and she's 18. I'm sorry about that but she's bound to get unwanted attention from men...Don't go all emo on me bro...It'll get better...probably..." The Pikachu supposedly named Eddie sighed.

Eddie was a bit taller than Pikachu without any major differences from most Pikachu found in the city, or the world for that matter. You could tell from his voice however that he was several years older than Pikachu.

"I won't...Thanks for listening Eddie..." Pikachu smiled.

"If I may, maybe working with Mr. Hex himself isn't a good idea, but you might be able to take Gengar's old job. The hours there were much more reasonable to your needs. I work for Slump myself. And it pays an honest amount. It IS still technically under Mr. Hex's funding." Eddie suggested.

Pikachu thought about this for a moment then he nodded. He had two days to find a job before Glaceon would most likely find out that something was up. "Alright. I'll see if I can get him to hire you." Eddie smiled.

"Thanks Bro."




Romann entered his headquarters for a late night inspection and heard a strange noise. "Hmm?"

Engine sounds echoed from inside a room as the double doors swung open revealing the Yveltal Glider and Gengar, as described earlier. He was wearing the same, white Mega Gengar mask and the same devious grin was still on his face. "That's my Glider! My high tech Glider! Stop THIEF!" Romann bellowed.

The Ghoul Gengar simply laughed and flew away...

Several hours later, some of the Big Man's Petty thugs were in an apartment trying to bust open a safe, with a crowbar. "Dude, we could have cracked it open there!" A Primeape grunted.

"The Cops would have cracked YOU open first. Cops or Super Chu. Look, Hammerhead's waiting for The Big Man's cut. Forget the crowbar, blow it up." A Krokorok demanded.

"Blow yourself up." Primeape snorted.

As if on cue the front door exploded into green mist and the Ghoul Gengar emerged from the smoke. "Did someone mention explosives?!" He cackled.

"Get the Freak!" Shouted a Servine as the three of the lunged at him.

Ghouly shot three sparks of electricity at them knocking them back and a blade emerged from the head of the Glider pointing directly at Servine.  "I-I meant, get the Freak anything he wants..." Servine backed down.

"What I want is your undying loyalty. That or the dying kind. The Ghoul Gengar is nothing, if not flexible." He grinned placing a tiny mine on the safe.

It exploded with a higher pitched screech, opening the safe. He tossed the money inside to them and Krokorok caught it. "Appreciate the help, but we work for The Big Man. We switch Loyalties and we might as well tie on the toe tags ourselves."

"I'm good with knots too! As for The Big Man...The Party's over..." The Ghoul Gengar smiled subtly, holding out a larger bomb...




"He said yes?! That's awesome! When do I start?" Pikachu asked over the phone.

"Monday." Eddie answered.

"That works. I can wait two days." Pikachu smiled. "Thanks for the help!"

"Don't mention it bro. I'll talk to you later." He said hanging up.

Glaceon walked down the stairs of their house wearing a ruby red dress with sparkling imitation jewelry on it. Pikachu was absolutely stunned by her beauty. "Wow...I...Glaceon...What's the occasion?" He asked forcing himself not to stutter.

She giggled and said, "I was personally invited to a party. The Darkrai Dynamic Youth Center is hosting an anniversary party at the downtown ballroom and manor. They want me to perform for them."

"Darkrai Dynamic Youth Center? That sounds like a cover up name for Tombstone's Party...I better follow her as Super Chu just in case..." Pikachu thought.

"Sounds fun! Hope you enjoy yourself!" Pikachu smiled.

"Thanks Pika." She said hugging him.

They said their goodbyes and she left. "Alright. Now to get my costume..." He went over to his hidden pocket in the bench by the door where he usually kept it. But to his surprise, it wasn't there. "Oh no...WHERE IS IT?!"




Glaceon had just finished her third song of the night and blushed as the crowd cheered for her. She stepped off stage to get a drink. She looked around for a moment to find something non-alcoholic and after a good minute or so she settled on some iced tea. The majority of the Pokemon there were like her, Pokemon who make an honest living. But there was a fair share of thugs at the party.

A Jolteon approached her with a smile on his face. "You're Glaceon aren't you? The a cappella artist on PokeTube?" Jolteon asked.

"Yes. That's me." She smiled.

"My daughter is a big fan of yours. Would it be alright if I could bring her over to take a picture with you?" Jolteon asked.

"Sure. I don't mind." She blushed. "I'm still not all that used to people recognizing me and coming up to me though."

The man went over to grab his daughter and came back with a five year old Eevee. "Well hello there. It's nice to meet you Eevee." Glaceon smiled.

The Eevee didn't say anything but she pounced on Glaceon giving her a warm hug. Glaceon was surprised by this but she hugged back. They took a couple of photos, then Glaceon took her Tea and moved on. Tombstone floated on stage and tapped the mic. He was wearing a black suit and bow tie. "If I might have your attention. As many of you know, I am your host. Thank you all for coming to support the Darkrai Dynamic Youth Center."

The crowd gave their applause. And Glaceon took her spot back on stage and was about to start singing again but as soon as she opened her mouth to let out the first syllable, gunshots were heard in the hallway. "Sorry! Party's over folks! And stairs and Elevator are out of order. Although you could try a window." Servine laughed wearing a Jack O'Lantern mask Followed by Krokorok and Primeape wearing the same thing.

The Ghoul Gengar Smashed through a window on his glider laughing maniacally. "Oops. Too late." Servine smirked.

Everyone inside shrieked in fear. "Hello! Good Evening! I am The Ghoul Gengar! And I am looking for The Big Man!" Ghoul Gengar smirked.

Tombstone stepped up, "Sir, I don't know who you are bu-"

"Of course you don't! That's the point of the mask genius!" He laughed, "But I know who you are crime king! So step down, or I start sharing secrets!"

"You're making an enormous mistake. Security, this man is obviously troubled. Take care of him." Tombstone demanded.

"Tsk tsk tsk. Still hiding behind an army of thugs are we?" Ghoul Gengar shook his head.

Security shot taser guns at him but he caught the cords and as they shocked him he simply laughed it off. The electricity recoiled and shocked them. Ghouly used the cords as a whip and flung the remaining guards away. Ghoul Gengar jumped onto the chandelier swinging from side to side. "Careful now! Stay put, or else..." The Ghoul Gengar laughed.

"There's no need to threaten my guests." Tombstone glared.

"There is if I want witnesses! Big guy!" The Ghoul Goblin Smirked.

Glaceon was trembling violently. She already had Rocket Cat to fear but another Super Villain thrown in the mix was too much for her to take. She whimpered in fear, having an idea as to what would happen next. Ghoul Gengar turned to look at her and smirked. "Well look what we have here! Quite the knockout. Care to join me young one?"

He swung down and grabbed her. She screamed at the top of her lungs and struggled to get out of his grip. But he appeared to physically be almost, if not as strong as Super Chu, and she couldn't break free. "SUPER CHU SAVE ME!!!"




Meanwhile Pikachu was fumbling through the house tearing it apart still looking for his uniform. His ears perked up at the sound of Glaceon screaming. "Oh no...I'm coming Glaceon!" He turned to leave without his uniform but he slipped on a blanket and when he stopped fumbling and got the blanket off of him he found his suit on the ground. "There it is!"

He jumped into his suit and dashed out as fast as he could to the scene.




Glaceon was now bound and held firmly in The Ghoul's grip. At the sight of a hostage no one moved or dared try to attack him. Tombstone looked up to him and asked, "What do you hope to accomplish here tonight?"

"So...the whole wanting to kill you and take over your empire thing wasn't clear..? Well darn..." Ghoul Gengar shrugged.

"You who? Excuse me? Can I come in this way or do I have to break my own window?" Super Chu quipped.

At the sound of his voice Tombstone, Ghouly, and Glaceon all looked up to where The Ghoul Gengar had previously entered to see Super Chu floating there with his arms folded, clearly unhappy about Glaceon. "Super Chu!" The three of them exclaimed in unison.

Glaceon was brought to tears at the sight of her hero and boyfriend. "S-super Chu...Please...Save me..." She pleaded trembling through tears.

"I will Glaceon...Don't you worry." Pikachu said glaring at his foe.

"Your timing is impeccable Super Chu. I should have known that this was your girlfriend." Tombstone remarked.

"So your latest Super Loser turned on you, huh Tomby?" Super Chu smirked.

"I don't know who he is...Yet. But I assure you, he's not in my employ..." Tombstone grunted.

Super Chu jumped onto a rail and smirked, "That's just fine. He's scaring Glaceon so it's all the same to me. I can always pretend he's yours while I trounce him. I'll still feel good inside."

"Hello? I'm in the room! Really, you're both too rude!" The Ghoul Gengar comedically added.

"Oh where are my manners? Here you are terrorizing Tombstone and I don't even say thank you. My only excuse is you're holding the one I love hostage! It's confusing to me. Hand her over!" Super Chu growled.

"Yes, quite the puzzler. But The Ghoul Gengar has a better solution. You and I, join forces! We combine our powers! We could rule the city! And next, the world!" The Ghoul Gengar exclaimed.

Super Chu spat and coldly stated, "I make it a point to avoid working with anyone psychotic. I'm not going to tell you again. Let...her...go..."

"Your loss. OF LIFE!" The Ghoul Gengar exclaimed blasting energy shots at him.

Super Chu dodged and was about to punch him but he held up Glaceon halting Super Chu in his tracks. "Ah, ah ah. If you so much as try to lay a finger on me, you may hit little girlfriend." The Ghoul Gengar laughed knowing he wouldn't attack with Glaceon there.

Glaceon whimpered helplessly no longer trying to break free. She wasn't quite as scared as she was the other day, but was still too scared to move. Super Chu decided he could most likely get to her before this man could do anything and he lunged at him swiping his feet from under him causing him to drop Glaceon. Glaceon screamed as she fell unable to steady herself but Super Chu caught her before she hit the ground.

She sighed and looked up at her hero lovingly and with gratitude, "Thank you Super Chu..."

Super Chu said nothing in response. Instead he untied her and proceeded to kiss her. Setting her down he glared up at his foe.  He lept up and they began exchanging punches, and The Ghoul Gengar was able to keep up with him and retaliate, hitting just as hard. The Ghoul Gengar slammed a shadow ball into Super Chu's chest, sending him flying. He proceeded to blast him with plasma missiles that shot out of his hands.

Super Chu dodged most of them but got hit the last two times. The two went in circles around the room exchanging Punches and knocking over tables and snacks. At this point we return to when we first came in as The Ghoul Gengar grabbed him and threw him out a window smashing it.

Super Chu tried to steady himself and he flew back in smashing a third window. He flipped onto a still standing table and asked, "Okay! Where's the dude with the nasty tude?!"

He dodged as multiple Shadow Balls were thrown in his direction. Maniacal laughter echoed in his ears as The Ghoul Gengar said, "Present, and accounted for!"

He threw a Jack O' Lantern shaped bomb at him that let out a screech sounding like his voice as it exploded. Leaping into the air Super Chu flipped over the heads of all the press in the building and the Ghoul threw shurikens with  Jack O'Lanterns engraved into them at him He continued hurling these at him and one actually managed to tear his uniform open. "Hey! Did I mess up your costume?! Lay off the threads pal!" Super Chu exclaimed.

"Ah! But the Ghoul Gengar doesn't take orders from Rodents." The Ghoul Gengar smirked. "The Ghoul Gengar squashes them into oblivion!"

He flew over to Super Chu and grabbed him spinning around and launched him into a table. "May I see your invitation Super Chu? Otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to leave." He mocked.

"Leave now? When table seven needs more orderves?" Super Chu quipped.

More shurikens were thrown at him and Tombstone managed to catch one. They continued to duke it out for a bit until Super Chu grabbed him. "Oh did you want a ride?" The Ghoul Gengar smirked. "Keep our guests comfy boys! I'll be back in a minute!"

He dashed out of the building smashing yet another window and he threw Super Chu down. "Seriously Ghouly, do you have a license for this thing?!" Super Chu exclaimed as he steadied himself to begin flying again.

He flew off in pursuit of the Gengar. The Ghoul slammed him into a wall and it cracked. "You know the old saying! If you can't join em, beat em!" The Ghoul Gengar begun hurling bombs and shurikens at Super chu and didn't stop.

Much to Super Chu's annoyance, every bomb let out the same shriek as it exploded. He eventually caught one and threw it back at him. His foe was caught off guard and slipped nearly falling off his glider. Super Chu punched him full force in the jaw. "That's for making me protect Tombstone!"

Ghoul Gengar continued flying backwards until he realized he had been approaching a skyscraper. Just before he smashed into it he super jumped off the glider as it rammed through the building flipping over it and landing back on the glider as it reemerged on the other side. "Okay wow...just...wow..." Was all Super Chu could say.

The blade from the glider peaked out preparing to impale Super Chu but he ducked and kicked him, knocking him off his glider and damaging it. Super Chu prepared to knock him out as he had clearly won the fight, but The Ghoul Gengar burst into a fit of laughter. "Now what's so funny?" He asked.

"Just the special fire and brimstone pumpkin I left behind as a present for our Mr. Darkrai. Any minute now the Creme de le Creme of Amity City is going to paint the Town Red! Heh! Well the ballroom anyway..." He burst back into a fit of laughter.

Realizing everyone including Glaceon was still in grave danger he dashed back to the Ballroom as fast as he could. Completely leaving his enemy alone.




"What're we supposed to be doing again?" Primeape asked.

"Keep everyone here until the Ghoul comes back." Krokorok answered.

"Or maybe evacuate before the Ghoul's bomb goes off! Clear the room!" Super Chu exclaimed.

The Thugs started shooting at him and Super Chu being as history has shown, isn't harmed by mere bullets. Super Chu knocked the thugs guns away shouting, "What're you doing?! You have to get out! Bad guys included!"

"We work for The Ghoul!" Servine retorted.

"Every single blasted fragment of you?" Super Chu asked.

"You're bluffing!" Krokorok declared.

"Is that a risk you're willing to take? Especially when you've already taken so many?" Tombstone glared clearly recognizing them as former employees of his.

With this they left and everyone started streaming down the stairs. "Get out of here Glaceon! I'll be alright." Super Chu ordered.

Glaceon was hesitant but she eventually did as she was told. Super Chu begun tearing the place apart looking for the bomb. "If I were an evil pumpkin...where would I hide?"

Much to his surprise Tombstone stayed to look for it too. "Surprised you're sticking around..." Super Chu grunted.

"My party. My mess." Tombstone replied.

Glaceon was a quarter down the staircase until she remembered that The Ghoul Gengar had been swinging on the chandelier for a good 15 seconds. She ran back into the room and shouted, "Super Chu! The chandelier!"

"Thanks! Now get out of here!" He flew up to the chandelier and found the bomb and that it only had five seconds left till destination. In a mad rush Super Chu chucked it as hard as he could into the air out the window and it created a massive explosion that engulfed the equivalent of a four story building.

It thankfully went off out of harm's way. Super Chu sighed in relief until he noticed that Tombstone was clapping. "You know...applause from you...makes me wanna shower..." Super Chu glared.

"Perhaps...but someone should point out I personally offered you a handsome salary to do just the sort of thing you did tonight. And instead...You've done The Big Man's work for free. THAT my dear friend...is what grown ups call, irony..." Tombstone said chuckling as he walked away.




"Those thugs that tried to...rape me work for...him?" Glaceon asked.

Super Chu nodded. "Mr. Darkrai is the leader of the largest criminal empire in the country...I've been meaning to tell you but the guy called the police on me and made me seem like the bad guy when I confronted him..." Super Chu sighed.

"Oh Super..." She said pulling him into a warm embrace. "I love you Super Chu..."

"I love you more Glaceon..." Super Chu responded.

"I love you most...Thank you for saving me again...With how often I'm getting into trouble, I don't know what I'd do without you..." Glaceon's ears drooped.

"If you ever need me Glaceon...I will come...no matter what...Protecting you will always be my first priority." Super Chu pulled her into a kiss.

They kept their lips locked for a good minute and hugged each other. "Who do you think that guy was?" She asked.

"I don't know...But whoever he is, I have to stop him..."

To Be Continued...
I have waited for so long to get to this point. And here we finally are. Ladies and Gentlemen, I finally bring you The Ghoul Gengar!

Shortly after Super Chu prevented those thugs from raping Glaceon and discovering the mastermind Tombstone, Pikachu must fight a new enemy. One who seems much more dangerous than Rocket Cat...

Wow, talk about another tense moment especially with the introduction of Ghoul Gengar and hopefully there will be more epic twists to come. You really are on a roll here.
