"Latias, what the hell are you thinking?!" Latios yelled. He was really mad now. "I mean, its not enough to have everyone else on this council, including Yveltal like you, you have to go after Rayquaza too?" Latias had just suggested to her brother that she try to befriend and change the sky Pokemon, but this was too much. "I don't even know if he'll want to talk to you, and you know it took Yveltal long enough.". " Look Latios, I know you don't want me too, but if I can get one week of missions with him, maybe I can change him." Latias protested. Ever since she pitched this idea to him, she had regretted it. If he even agrees to this, he'll try to stop me, and do everything he can to keep this from happening. Latias decided to go talk to Arceus, maybe she would understand.
"If you think you can do this, maybe you should take a shot at it." Arceus said. It wasn't like there was a better shot at turning Rayquaza into an agreeable Pokemon to work with. "Just make sure that nobody finds out that I'm trying this out, especially not my brother." Was Latias' answer. She couldn't believe that the god Pokemon had actually agreed, now all she had to do was wait for the next meeting, in...fifteen minutes. Not hard at all.
That meeting had been a disaster, but not from Latias' plan's point of view. When Arceus began assigning partners, and she got assigned to Rayquaza, you could actually see the scowl on Rayquaza's normally expresionless face, and the shout of denial from Latios didn't really let itself be missed. "Arceus, please! Reassign Latias, she isn't in her right mind!" were his words of choice when screaming across the Hall. "Now then brother, you really shouldn't try to restrict me." was Latias' answer to him. As all of this happened all anyone watched was Rayquaza's face. His scowl hadn't left it all this time since Arceus had handed out assignments. Suddenly, a hyper beam resounded off a gong in the roof of the Hall, and everyone turned to face Arceus. "Assignments shall not be reconsidered, and you all have something to do, am I right?" Suddenly, everyone agreed that they had business to attend to, and left. Everyone except Rayquaza, Latios and Latias. " oh sis, now you really messed up." was all Latios could get out through his clenched teeth. Rayquaza finally spoke up. "Hey, back off, Arceus said it, and you have no proof that Latias requested this match.", but he said it with such a hiss in his voice that Latios considered the fact that the legendary now hissing at him stopped Groudon and Kyogre, two legendaries who could smash him into pulp, from fighting every day. Time to pull a hasty retreat, he thought. He quickly vacated the room, and went to his assignment. Latias glides over to where Rayquaza stood scowling. " We're going to have so much fun!" she said and hugged him. Even with Latias' soft feathers, Rayquaza found the will power to say, "I highly doubt it."
