Pokémon Black and White
Prologue: Ascension
"Members of Team Plasma!" Ghetsis' voice boomed throughout the room. "Today is a momentous occasion to behold."
"Quite momentous indeed!" A man said.
"It is quite exciting!" A woman added.
"Yes!" Ghetsis said. "That is enthusiasm that it well-founded given the auspiciousness of this day!"
"I can hardly contain my excitement!" A man commented.
"Neither can I!" A woman added, then looked around. "I wonder where he is."
Ghetsis then began walking up to the throne in the room, holding a crown. "Yes, this will be quite the day."
"Members of Team Plasma!" Ghetsis announced, holding his arms wide in the air. "Settle yourself for the moment will soon be upon us."
"Are you ready?" Gorm said, holding N's cloak.
"Of course he is." Zinzolin said, a chastising tone in his voice.
"Ghetsis has been preparing him for this day." Bronius added.
"We would not be having such a fortuitous ceremony if he was not." Rood said.
"Yes Sages of Team Plasma." N said. "I am ready."
Ready to do what I must to save and protect my friends. N thought to himself, remembering his old friends. Darmanitan, Woobat, Zorua. All the other Pokémon I will free you from your oppression.
"Ah, N, I presume that you are ready." Ghetsis said, in more of statement than a question.
"Yes Ghetis," N began as Ghetsis prepared to put the crown on N's head. "I am."
"Good." Ghetsis said.
"Our Lord N looks determined." Concordia observed from where they sat.
"Yes, it would appear he is." Anthea added. "He has been preparing his whole life for this moment."
"All hail Team Plasma and our King N!" Ghetsis declared.
"All hail King N!" The six other Team Plasma Sages exclaimed.
"All hail Team Plasma!" The other members of Team Plasma bellowed. "All hail King N!"
"But do not forget." Ghetsis said. "Our main goal."
"Yes." N said, holding an hand up to quiet down those present. "We shall free the Pokémon and only then will they be happy!"
"All hail Team Plasma!" Some members exclaimed.
"Liberate the Pokémon!" Others declared.
"For honor!" Others shouted.
"All hail Team Plasma and our illustrious King N!" They then yelled in unison. "The Pokémon will be liberated!"
"Yes!" Ghetsis shouted. "But now, we must begin the preparations to speak with the populace of Unova!"
"Yes Ghetsis!" Those present shouted, saluting. "We will not fail Team Plasma."
They then slowly left the room, leaving only King N, the Seven Sages of Team Plasma, and Concordia and Anthea.
"Lord N." Concordia said, bowing, her Gardevoir next to her. "We will now escort you to your quarters."
"Yes, Lord N." Anthea added, also bowing, her Gothitelle next to her. "You will need your rest for when the speeches begin."
"Thank you." N replied, following the two ladies. "I am grateful to you."
"It is our pleasure to serve you." Concordia said.
"Our desire is to help you achieve your goal." Anthea added.
"And I plan on achieving that most distinguished of goals." N said, opening the door to his room.
"Good night Lord N." Concordia said, bowing before leaving.
"Have pleasant dreams." Anthea added, also bowing before following Concordia.
"I will soon help you my friends." N said to himself as he prepared to go to sleep. "No longer will you have to deal with the oppression of Poké Balls and listening to humans orders without end."
However, as everyone was settling in, one of the Team Plasma Grunts in attendance was a certain person in authority.
"Liberate Pokémon huh?" Looker said to himself as he inconspicuously left Team Plasma's Base. "I must warn International Police Headquarters about this development."
As he hit the ground after descending the wall, he released his Pokémon.
"Croagunk, Luxray, come on out." Looker said, looking around. "I don't believe we're alone here."
"You would be right about that." A voice said from the shadows to his left.
"Impressive." A voice to his right commented honestly. "It is not an easy feat to detect us."
"Nothing occurs within Team Plasma that we do not know about." A voice in front of him said.
"The Shadow Triad!" Looker exclaimed as his Pokémon got into fighting stance.
"Very perceptive." The middle voice said.
"How you managed to sneak past our keen eyes escapes me." The right voice said.
"One though does not simply get into base without us knowing about it." The left voice said.
"Bisharp and Absol!" The right voice said as he unleashed his Pokémon.
"Bisharp and Accelgor!" The left voice said as they emerged.
"Bisharp and Banette!" The middle voice said as they came out.
Time for more assistance. Looker thought you himself.
"You come out here too Gallade and Floatzel."
After a mostly one-sided fight, with the Shadow Triad fainting all four of Looker's Pokémon and they knocked out Absol, Accelgor, and Banette, the three Bisharp advancing slowly on Looker.
"No where to run now." The middle voice said.
"You'd think that wouldn't you." Looker said with a smirk.
"What are you planning?" The left voice asked.
"You're Pokémon have fainted." The right voice commented.
"I have more than just those four though." Looker replied. "Magnezone, Staraptor come on out!"
"Magnezone?" ("What is it?")
"Staraptor?" ("Fight or flight?")
"Magnezone, use Supersonic!" Looker exclaimed. "Staraptor, use Whirlwind!"
Magnezone's eye then glowed red as it unleashed several transparent rings, effectively confusing the Bisharp as Staraptor flapped his wings furiously. The resulting winds blasting the Bisharp into their respective trainers.
"Now return Magnezone!" Looker said as he returned the Magnet Area Pokémon after hopping on Staraptor's back. "While the time is right, let's take advantage of it."
"Staraptor!" ("Right!")
Looker and Staraptor then flew off into the distance, leaving the Shadow Triad coughing as their departure kicked up dust.
"We must go after them!" The right triad exclaimed.
"No, they'll be back." A voice said as he was followed by his Cyrogonal.
"Sage Zinzolin." The three Shadow Traid said as they knelt in front of the man. "What are you doing here?"
"I sensed something was wrong when the ceremony was occurring." Zinzolin replied. "It was hard to spot, but I saw someone there who seemed suspicious."
"Well, he is gone now." The middle triad said bitterly, looking off into the distance.
"No matter, being a member of the International Police," The left triad began. "they'll return to put a stop to our plans."
"Well, let us return to the base." Zinzolin said, shivering slightly. "It's cold out here."
"Yes, you are right." The middle triad said.
"Next time though," The right triad began. "they won't get off so easily."
"Are you tired Staraptor?" Looker asked in concern to the Predator Pokémon as they descended into a hidden forested area.
"Staraptor star!" ("I'll be fine.")
"That is a relief." Looker said, sighing before looking up into the sky. "We must have been traveling quite a while if the sun is starting to rise."
"Staraptor star." ("It was easy.") The Predator Pokémon said proudly.
"Yes, you deserve a long rest after that flight." Looker said, returning the tired Staraptor. "Now, to contact the International Police about this development."
"Yes, what is it?" A disguised voice asked.
"It is about Team Plasma here in Unova." Looker said, talking to a laptop. "They plan getting the people here to release their Pokémon."
"They do?" The voice said in slight surprise before composing themselves. "No matter, keep a close eye on them and only engage when absolutely necessary."
"Right!" Looker exclaimed, saluting to his superior. "You can count on me."
"I know that I can." The voice said before turning off.
"Now to get some rest myself." Looker said, closing his eyes. "All that excitement tired me out too."
"Where should we begin our speeches to convince people to release their Pokémon?" Giallo asked.
"I think we should begin in Accumula Town." Ryoku said. "Several multitudes of people and their Pokémon exist there."
"Yes, I agree with you Ryoku." Ghetsis said. "Accumula Town will be the place to begin."
"Indeed." Zinzolin said.
"Although, it won't be easy." Rood interjected. "People will not willingly give up their Pokémon."
"Soon they will though." Bronius said. "Ghetsis is quite the charismatic person."
"And once they listen to what I say," Ghetsis began. "they will doubt their relationships which will pave the way for Pokémon Liberation."
"And it will be glorious." Giallo said.
"Head of International Police," The man said next to the person who had just finished talking with Looker. "do you truly believe that Looker can handle himself in Unova?"
The Head of International Police merely gave a small smile before responding. "Yes, Looker is quite capable, but who said he would be dealing with Team Plasma alone?"
"Who do you plan on contacting?" The man - Xavier - asked.
"I'm going to contact the Gym Leaders and Elite Four Members of the Unova region." The Head of International Police - Alexander - replied. "I'm sure they'll be of help when the time comes.
"Head of International Police?" Cress inquired calmly over the videophone. "To what do we owe this surprise?"
"International Police!" Chili exclaimed incredulously, pushing his brother slightly out of the way. "Wow, so cool."
Cress sweat-dropped at his brother's enthusiasm. "Now, now, Chill, calm yourself."
"Sorry," Chili said sheepishly. "I got overly-excited...again."
"Is there something wrong?" Lenora inquired.
"Yes, it would seem that an evil organization has taken root in the Unova Region." Alexander replied.
"An evil organization?" Burgh wondered aloud. "What do they want?"
"Do they plan on disturbing the populace like Team Rocket from Kanto?" Elesa asked.
"Or do they plan on something akin to what Team Magma and Team Aqua from Hoenn did?" Clay inquired.
"Do they want to remake the world?" Skyla wondered. "In the manner of what Team Galactic attempted?"
"My guess is they plan on something entirely different." Brycen said.
"You would be right about that Gym Leader from Icirrus City." Alexander said. "They plan on getting Pokémon Trainers and the like to release their Pokémon."
"Impossible!" Drayden said. "Pokémon Trainers love their Pokémon and there is great friendship between both of them."
"No one will willingly give up their friends." Elesa commented.
"My pure heart is taken aback by this development!" Burgh exclaimed, half-dramatically.
"Is there anything that would give them the chance to attempt this?" Cress asked.
"Well, to be honest," Alexander began. "we don't know the particulars of their plans."
"And I assume you want us to keep an eye out for anything suspicious?" Clay surmised.
"Precisely." Alexander said.
"We'll keep on an eye on Striaton City." Cress said.
"Yeah!" Chili exclaimed loudly. "You can count on us Head of Internation Police."
"I will do my best to keep on eye on anything suspicious in Nacrene City." Lenora said.
"My pure heart will allow me to keep a close watch upon Castelia City." Burgh said, turning off the videophone along with Cress, Chili, and Lenora doing the same.
"Nothing will get by me undetected." Clay said.
"I'll be sure to keep Nimbasa City safe." Elesa said.
"Don't worry about me!" Skyla declared. "I'll keep a high-flying eye over Mistralton City!"
With that, Clay, Elesa, and Skyla signed off as well.
"My icy gaze will not let any evil-doers go unnoticed in Icirrus City." Brycen said.
"Me and my Dragon-types will keep a valiant watch over Opelucid City for anything out of the ordinary." Drayden said as both he and Brycen signed off.
"Now what sir?" Xavier inquired.
"Now we contact the members of the Elite Four." Alexander replied.
"What is it?" Caitlin inquired, yawning. "I was having a simply great dream."
"Why have you called us here today?" Grimsley asked.
"Whatever it is, it must be important." Marshal said.
"And just when I was writing my novel too." Shauntal said half-heartedly.
"I've called you here to inform you about the evil organization know as Team Plasma that plans to liberate Pokémon from humans." Alexander said.
"Liberate...Pokémon?" Caitlin asked, still half-asleep before she composed herself. "Well don't worry about me. Me and my Psychic-types will keep a watchful eye over Unova."
"My Dark-types and I will also maintain a vigilance over our fair home of Unova." Grimsley said.
"My Fighting-types will be prepared to deal with any evil-doers I should come across." Marshal said, punching his fists together.
"This sounds just like an Action/Adventure novel!" Shauntal exclaimed excitedly before composing herself. "My Ghost-types will maintain a stalwart watch over the populace of Unova."
"And I, as Champion of the Elite Four, will keep an eye out for anything suspicious in the Unova region." Alder said before he and his other four members shut off their videophones.
"Do you think they'll be prepared?" Xavier inquired.
"Only time will tell." Alexander replied. "Only time will tell."
Author's Notes: And there you have it, the prologue to the story. The main thing that inspired the story would be EchidnaPower's AAML: Diamond and Pearl Version story. Go over there and give it a gander. I'm sure you won't regret it. Cover Image from searching Pokémon Black and White TechnoBuffalo.
