Doorstep baby. You're probably very familiar of the trope if I set the scene. Underneath a raining day, a mother (or father) is seen carrying a baby in a basket. The parent is sometimes draped in a cloak to avoid being seen. They reached a door to a house and ringed the doorbell. They quickly placed down the basket and escape through the night as the door opens. Stepping out, a person stands there and glance down towards the child before them, which may hold a note. In some respects, Finn is a doortep baby to some extent. However, his origins wasn't quite as typical as you what you expect.

It all started in a lab. Ferals and Pokemon alike have been locked away in cells to be used as experiments for various projects. Upon these beings was Eli. With no knowledge of what happened to his parents and the blood of a Houndour flowing through his veins, the time that Eli spent in this lab left him fearful and scared for his life until a strange mechanical beast appeared. This beast would slaughter the scientists in this lab and freed the Pokemon and ferals inside. Once its job was done, it left. However, as such curious as ever and with no place to go, Eli followed this beast for over a year. The beast did not stop him and simply let him follow along until it was able to find a place for the boy to stay in in hopes someone would take him in.

The metallic beast didn't realize that it would that village, a duo would arrive and take that boy in as their own.

The other Gods call him Ogun. It was a name given to him by the God of Many Hands and was meant to be a nod to his affinity to iron. Ogun was once a primitive beast that was regarded as apex predator at a time. He would die at some point before he would return to this world centuries later with his body composed of steel. Despite killing the ones that rebuilt him, the God of Many Hands made him ascend to godhood and gifted him a name the mortals would refer to him as: Genesect. When Ogun wasn't advancing technology with Magearna and Miraidon, he was scoping the land of labs where Pokemon attempt to play God. To craft new Pokemon was considered a heinous crimes to the Gods, and it was his duty to ensure there was balance by eliminating the ones who dare spit in the face of the Gods by doing this.

That is what brought him to Genesis Lab. He heard the whispers of Pokemon and the like going missing in a nearby town. There was also a stronger prescence of freakish hybrids of ferals appearing in places they shouldn't. He knew the signs of what this meant and was already off before his master could give him the command. When he stepped into the lab, he wasn't surprised by what he saw. Pokemon and ferals of various ages were being experimented on. Some were lifeless while the majority was still alive. Honestly, that latter was a surprisingly one, given his track record. Regardless, he did what he usually do. He tore about the scientists, destroy whatever plans of projects they had and let go of whatever beings were victims to their experiment. He got his praise. It meant nothing to him as he was already familiar with how this goes. As always, he doesn't stay long as he knows the Union would making their appearance shortly once one of the victims makes it to town.

What he wasn't expecting was a Tyrunt/Houndour hybrid to follow him.

The boy was Elliot. His memories were quite fuzzy. He was originally a Tyrunt..though science infused his blood with a Houndour. When asked about why he was following, Elliot remarks that Ogun resembled Primesect. That...was news to Ogun. He haven't heard that name since his old's body extinction. Considering the nature of the fact this boy was a Tyrunt, Ogun manage to piece together that the boy came from his time and died through some event that wiped out the Pokemon of their time. He would have become a fossil and most likely be brought back to life through this lab. The poor boy probably didn't realize that his parents were long gone. This fact was supposedly proven by the fact that Eli rambled about needing to stick close to Ogun in hopes he can help him find his parents.

Ogun decided to let the lad follow him. He made no comment about whether his parents were alive or not. He made sure the boy avoided meeting the various Gods he met and taught him the basic things needed to survive. Ogun mostly did this as he knew that he wasn't gonna keep the child for long. He wasn't built to raise a son, and his home wouldn't be in the best interest of the lad. As such, he made sure not to get too close to him but made sure he was at least giving all he could to survive. After a year, they would arrive to a Village of Saleah, where Ogun informed Eli that the village would take care of him from now on and he can no longer afford to take him on his missions. Of course, Eli threw a fit at this, but Ogun manage to calm him down by reminding him that he would visit once a week. He also noted that he would take the boy back when he was 8-9 years old and take him as his own if he was still here. To his joy, Eli took this offer and wish Ogun a goodbye as he left.

Eli cherish the moments that Ogun appeared as he reminded him of his father. Unknown to Ogun, Eli was fully aware that his parents had died. His parents would never leave him. He tried to have hope they were alive....but that hope faded over the months. He latched himself to Ogun as he saw him as a father. He was appreciative of the time that Ogun spent with him as he gave him the attention he craved. Don't give him wrong. The village treated him with kindness and partially saw him as family. However, it just....wasn't enough. He counted his days (as best as he could) for when Ogun would adopt him. However, nothing could prepare him for the day that Raiden and Lucius appeared. He was wary of them at first until they started to give him attention. They bothered to listen to his ramblings and even gave him some free food. It was so...strange...but he kinda liked it.

When the two got ready to leave the village, Eli was quick to demand that they adopt him. This wasn't uncommon for Eli to do. Whenever people he liked appeared, he usually give that demand. He usually expected them to say no. To his confusion, Raiden and Lucius said yes. Eli question if this was some kind of trick with Lucius denying that was the case. Eli questioned why they wanted anything to do with him. Raiden would simply reply that they honestly enjoyed Eli's vibes and saw that Eli wanted to see more of the world. Lucius adds that Ogun also asked that they take Eli in since he wanted the boy to have the happiness of having a family. At this information, Eli breaks down and eventually runs over to Lucius and Raiden to cuddle up to his new fathers.
