Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Guardians Of The Rift
Peace briefly descended upon the Pokémon world after the PokéPals prevented the collapse in time and what would cause the end of the Pokémon world as we know it. A decade has passed since then. A lot has happened. My father and leader of the A.T.C, Alakazam has passed away. PokéPals have vanished into the thin air that we breath. A few things remain the same though. Wigglytuff's Guild remains and has become increasingly popular over the last few years because of the adventurous exploits of the PokéPals. Treasure Town still has its vibrant, friendly yet exotic atmosphere by the coastline.
Although peace descended upon the world and Treasure Town, we are still needed. Us exploration teams. Since bandit and thieves still roam. They still perform villainous crimes. Even nature can be harsh to us. A brutal storm once happened and multiple exploration teams went out to sea to save Pokémon who needed help.
Peace briefly descended. Briefly. These last few months have been chaotic for everyone. Bad Pokémon have begun to form groups; Their own Exploration Teams if you will. It has become increasingly harder for Pokémon and Exploration Teams alike to fight this new formed evil. The cry for help has become a bellow to all Exploration Teams. Only rumours surround the sudden up rise of evil. Some say that time is malfunctioning again and that Time Gears are being stolen but there is no proof that this is happening. Others say that people have just gone crazy for power and that this will be a constant struggle. I personally don't know what to believe.
As I speak now I'm hidden. I've hidden myself in my home behind the rocks of Beach Cove. The waves crashing violently through my mind just like the brainwaves in my mind. The reason why I'm hiding is logical. Hordes of bad Pokémon have come to raid maybe even destroy Treasure Town! Machamp and I were called to help in Treeshroud Forest. An innocent Pokémon was lost and needed to get back to Treasure Town. We got to the end of the Forest and to our surprise the infamous Team Meanies were there. The team now consisted of Gengar who is still leader. The strong duo of Throh and Sawk and finishing of the group Mismagius. A fight ensued because of Meanies' crimes and Machamp's hot headedness.
Their power was... was phenomenal. They defeated us with ease yet Machamp would not give up the fight he continued to fight the pointless war. Each punch was getting more sluggish and weaker each time. I was frozen to the muddy sludge, I wanted to move and help Machamp but my body wouldn't comply. It wasn't the sludge it was my willpower holding me back. I just couldn't do it. With my own eyes I saw him. With my own eyes I saw them. With my own eyes I saw them kill him. They brutally killed Machamp. I was next but my body worked and I jolted out of the forest back to Treasure Town. My mind was and still is going crazy I just saw my ally, partner and friend just die before my eyes and I did nothing but run like the coward I am!
I kept to myself when I got back by nightime at Treasure Town. I wasn't able to talk even if I tried to so I just mumbled my way out of conversations. Most people were asleep or inside by now. That's when the shadows began to move towards us. In the distance I could see flickering lights in the distance; getting a better look I saw they were torches. A mass group of Pokémon were marching. No storming towards us! Quickly, I woke everyone up and told them to get to Wigglytuff's Guild. There I told everyone what was going on. Wigglytuff signalled Pokémon to see what was causing this disturbance but before our eyes they were slaughtered each one of them. Buildings were set alight. Panicking I teleported to here. Home. Just like Machamp I've left them cowering before their death.
Moments pass when Diglett erupts from the ground in front of me. He tells me of the horrors back in Treasure Town and how I have to do something. Everyone is holding out but not for much longer. The next moment Diglett burrows back underground leaving me with my dysfunctional thoughts.
I have to do something even if I end up dying myself. I got get revenge on Machamp's death and everyone's death! This wouldn't of happened if it wasn't for me. Alakazam, son of the legendary leader of the A.T.C.
