A/N: Well as a haughtyshipper I seriously thought that I needed to do something to have more haughtyshipping fics on this website! I'm still pretty new at this so I'm not very good. And please to the reviewers...go easy on me. If you have extra time please read my other Pokemon story. Yeah that'll help a lot!


"The Masked Guardian", or so he is called, is the protector of Lake Verity's forests for as long as Twinleaf town history has been known. Whenever somebody gets lost in the lake's vast forest, he mysteriously brings them back here safely with the person's memory remembering nothing but his clothing, his long, green cloak and clothing was his signature mark. "The Masked Guardian" would initially punish trespassers who want to harm the lake or the lake's guardian: Mesprit. He is noted for his heroic deeds and sometimes even for being the savior of Mesprit itself, or so it is rumored. His legends are passed down from generation after generation in that town and has even protected the surroundings of the town as a sign of respect for his love for nature and thanks for his selfless acts to protect the lake."

"That was such an intriguing story father!" a young Platinum Berlitz remarked as she listen to her father's story on her bed. "Please tell it all over again!"

"That's enough sweetheart…" Mr. Berlitz said as he put the covers over Platinum and kisses her forehead. "Now go to sleep."

"Goodnight father." Platinum said as she closes her eyes.

"Goodnight Platinum…" Mr. Berlitz said as he turns off the lights and closes the door. As he does, Platinum gets up from her bed and looks outside the window.

"Oh Masked Guardian, how I wish I can see you, even just once…" Platinum said as she dozes off.

-Several Years Later-

Platinum gazed down Route 201 as hopes to visit Lake Verity, the home of the lake guardian that represents emotion. She stares at the beauty of the lake's shoreline and ponders if there really is a very rare Pokemon that is unlikely to be seen in Sinnoh like the Professor said.

"It's beautiful out here…" Platinum remarks as she walks along the lake's shoreline to and later reaches the forest. "According to Professor Rowan, it lives somewhere here? My, this is quite an unusual place to live…" She whispers as she enters the vast forest. "Professor Rowan sent me here to search for a rare Pokemon that he saw in Lake Verity's forest…but all I'm seeing so far are Starlies and Bidoofs…" She thinks as she keeps on walking around the natural labyrinth. "Oh no…" Platinum said as she finally reaches a cliff. "I'm at a dead end…" She said as she rustles over her bag for her Rapidash's Pokeball. "Let us go Rapidash." Platinum commanded as she hops on Rapidash's back and gallops around the forest. "That's not the way out…" Platinum thought as they hit another dead end and gallops the other way. "Not this one either…" she continues around the forest but to no avail the road only seemed to become even longer…

After hours of searching, Platinum finally gave up on looking for the rare Pokemon, she sat down under a tree and looked at the sky.

"It's already almost night time…" She gazed at the sun setting. Time past by as Platinum decided to return home and continue her search the day after. But to her luck…her Rapidash accidentally tripped over something!

"Ow…" Platinum said as she stood up and went to check on Rapidash. "Thanks a lot Rapidash, you must be tired." Platinum said as she returns Rapidash into his Pokeball.

But at that exact moment a flash of light appeared behind her and she heard a buzzing sound…Platinum slowly turned around and she was surprised to see…

"BEEDRILLS!" She cries as she ran on her own while being chased by dozens of newly evolved poison bee Pokemon. She managed to hide herself behind a tree trunk, but unfortunately the Pokemon managed to locate her all over again. Without any choice, Platinum decided that there was only one thing that she must do to get out of that sticky, or should I say, pointy situation. Platinum reached for her Empoleon's Pokeball, but to her dismay…she forgot that she left all of her Pokemon in Professor Rowan's lab!

"Rapidash!" Platinum called out and the fire horse Pokemon revealed himself, though with an injured foot. "Use Fire Blast!" Rapidash whinnied as it let out the attack and it hit majority of the Beedrills. "Good job Rapidash! Keep it up!" Platinum ordered. But after some attacks, Rapidash eventually fainted.

"Rapidash?" Plainum said checking on the fallen Pokemon and looks at her Pokedex. "It can take down any opponent with its powerful poison stingers. It sometimes attacks in swarms." she says and looks at the remaining Beedrills.

"They are more than two dozen of them left..." She says worriedly as the Beedrills point their stingers towards her. "Is there even a chance that I may survive this?...if there isn't then I wish I could've at least said goodbye to father, Professor Rowan, and to Diamond and..." The Beedrills charge after her and Platinum closes her eyes, not wanting to see what the Beedrills will do to her. "...Pearl." She says out loud as the Beedrills come closer to her, ready to tear her into pieces until...

"Shock Wave!" a voice yelled out and a sudden blast of lightning shot out from between where the Lady stood and the Beedrills which made them flee just after the attack was unleashed.

Platinum turned around to see who the voice belonged to and let out a gasp. He was clothed in green medieval clothing(just like Sir Aaron's except green) and a long green cloak. His hair was completely covered by his hat that also hid his face. "Who are you?" Platinum asks, staring at the stranger with curiosity in her eyes.

"I am..." he started, lifting his hat up a little, revealing his luminous amber orange eyes the color of a rising sun and his slightly masked face. "...The Masked Guardian!"

-Meanwhile in another region-

"Are you sure you'll be alright going home all by yourself?" An old man asked.

"I'll be fine Professor Hastings..." a 19 year old said as she puts her bags on her Flygon's back, her black vest, red undershirt, black skirt, yellow belt, and black boots all washed up and cleaned just for this journey. "Have you maybe forgotten that I'm a Top Ranger?" She asked as she showed her Fine Styler.

'Of course not." the professor replied. "It's just that flying to another region all by yourself is a very dangerous journey, don't you agree?"

"The Professor's right, Titanium." a red hat-headed Ranger replied, his partner Luxray by his side.

Titanium pouted as she tightens the grip on her black fingerless gloves. "Sven...I told you, you don't need to worry, I'm just taking a short leave and then I'll come right back here in Almia after I visit my family!"

"I would trust her if I were you." a tall and long green-haired woman said as she pats Titanium's Flygon on the head. "The girl needs to have a break sometime, besides she has been doing ranger work endlessly for months now. Don't you think she deserves this break?"

"You have a point Wendy..." the professor answered. "But leaving at this time of day, now that's dangerous."

"Don't worry about it.' Titanium said as she finishes putting her bags on Flygon. "Besides I have Infernape with me." Her Flame Pokemon happily let out a roar as she heard her name. "See?"

"Well you're right, but can you at least send your Staraptor to escort her?" the professor asked Wendy.

"Sure!" Wendy replied as she whistled for her partner Staraptor who came almost immediately.

"Now, take care!" the Professor said as Titanium got on her Flygon, her partner Pokemon Infernape at her side.

Titanium fixed her dazzling orange eyes at the setting sun, her long blue-violet hair swaying with the wind. "Okay Flygon! To the Sinnoh Region!"
