Well, you could say this is my remake of Lannu! A better, more planned story that will flow much more smoothly than the old one. I don't really think you want to see the other one...*sweat drop* That was one of my first stories...hurrah...
Enjoy!
Silhouettes danced as the darkness engulfed the sun, stars covering in the dark sky like a shimmering blanket. The moon was full and cast an errie glow over the shadowy garden. A fountain glimmering and sparkling under the moon stood in the center around a patch of stone steps. A wishing fountain, the humans called it.
A glowing figure emerged from the shadows, it light blue, white spotted pelt glowing dimly in the pale light. A lavender mane waved off it's skull, two ribbon like white tails wisping from it's hind. Suicune stood there, in all it's glory.
Next was his two brothers-Entei, with his thick brown pelt and white mane, and Raikou, a saber toothed Pokemon with a dark purple mane and a yellow pelt patched with black stripes. They touched noses, sitting down by the fountain.
A silver streak blazed across the sky, intertwined with a blazing rainbow colored one. The two steaks touched the ground in a spur of colors, and there stood a brother and sister; Lugia and Ho-Oh. They too found a seat by the fountain, nodding towards the legendary trio.
Next was another set of brothers. A blue and white dragon appeared engulfed in a blue and silver ring of time let out a roar, the ring spreading around the area. A white and pink dragon appeared in a flash of light as a pink and silver hole opened up out of the sky. A black and yellow dragon slithered out of the sky, surrounded in a dark veil of shadows. Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina. They exchanged nods with the others, finding a seat by the fountain.
There was a flash of green light, and a little green fairy emerged in a sparkling ring. Celibi. She greeted the others with grins, and fluttered by the fountain.
Almost at once, there was a shadowy darkness, and a pink light swirled and mixed together. As the mixture cleared, Darkrai and Cresselia stepped out of the sky.
Another pair soon appeared without a grand opening. They landed simply out of the sky, one small and pink with a long tail, and one mighty, gray and purple. Mew and Mew Two. There were followed by Latias, Latios, Raquaza, and Deoxoys.
But then, the mightiest and grandest of them all appeared in a sparkling orb of blinding light. All the legendaries bowed at the sight of Arceus. He nodded, thanked them for their bows, and took his place by the fountain.
"Everyone of notice here?" Arceus asked, his voice booming over the crowd's small chatter. The others looked amongst themselves, searching for lost members. Everyone was accounted for.
"Good. Now, I shall start on why I have called you here. You see-"
Suicune's eyes suddenly grew wide as he sniffed the air. "Humans!" He barked. "Hide!"
The legendaries spread out for cover, finding the easiest places to disguise themselves. Some took cover in the shadows, other in the trees. Some just merely in the air.
A man arised from the shadows, his eyes wide and scared. A blanketed figure stirred softly in his arms, as he walked up to the fountain.
He laid the small figure down on the fountain, pulling back the blankets. A baby's face washed pale in the glow of the moon could be seen. He kissed the baby's bronze curls, and slowly walked away with tearful eyes.
"He's gone." Dialga muttered. "But..."
The legendaries came out of their hiding, only to find the baby laying there on the rim of the fountain. Celibi fluttered up with excited eyes.
"It's a baby!" She trilled. "The man left this baby here!"
"Should we return it?" Cresselia questioned. "What if-"
"The man has clearly made his peace." Arceus interrupted. "He does not want the human child. But why must humans be so cruel even to their own kind? Placing the tiny human on the fountain-? What if she rolled into the fountain and drowned?"
"What if no one finds her?" Mew piped up. "She will starve..."
"Should we-?" Latias started. Her brother cast her a wary look.
"To risky!" He hissed. "One day it will have to return to it's own kind!"
"But still!" Latias mumbled. "What are we to do...?"
"We could take it in." Lugia suggested. "You know the deals we've been dealing with lately. This child could be our savior. With the humans destroying our homes..."
"At least some of the humans are not all rubbish." Ho-Oh chuckled. "Kind monks are keeping my home protected. They have even built a tower in my honor."
"And what do you think our home is?" Raikou grumbled. "We brothers may roam and each have our own perspective places, but our tower...the humans have not even rebuilt it yet since that frightful day..."
"None shall speak of it, Raikou. Settle now." Entei calmed him. "We must decide on our present problems. What do we do with the human child? Leave it, help it, keep it? Either wise, we are going to great lengths. And leaving it would a burned. She is so unspoiled by this world. So young and thoughtless."
"It? Stop calling 'it' and 'it'!" Celibi exclaimed. "It is clearly a girl! Stop speaking so rudely!"
"Calm, Celibi." Deoxoys patted his friend's shoulder. "Calm down."
"I think we should keep her." Latias cooed. "She's so cute."
"Let her be." Darkrai crossed his arms. "Humans are all trash."
The legendaries looked up expectantly up at Arceus. He pondered the possibilities for a moment, and then said, "She will stay. She will be raised right and properly, and she will know no poison. We will be her family. Us. Her name must be perfect. Any suggestions?"
They were silent for a moment, until Suicune spoke up.
"Anima?"
"Anima...Meaning Pure Soul, am I correct?" Arceus contemplated.
Suicune nodded. "It fits her. He soul will be pure."
"All right. It is settled. Anima, you are coming home with us."
And so...
Anima was taken to what they Legendaries called home.
It was odd at first, for none knew what it took to take care of a baby...
But they coped, and found ways.
Now, this child would start a new life with a new name...
And Anima's adventure began.
How is it? Care to spare a review? I'm thinking about taking OC's later...maybe...I have so many plans, my mind is boggling around in my skull in over drive...ugh...*sweat drop*
Till next chapter!
