Prologue

Arceus looked down at the world from an asteroid in space. The world was becoming corrupted. It had been a thousand years since the events that had awoken him. He turned around as Giratina came up behind him.

"You were right Arceus." The distortion Pokémon said sadly. "The humans are beginning their war on Pokémon. They have already attacked several places such as The Bell Tower and Mount Moon." Arceus sighed sadly. He had known that a day like this would come.

"Call the others together." He said sadly. The ghostly dragon nodded and left. Arceus looked down again at the world. It had been so long since he had been to the planet, and now he would be leaving it.

…

The asteroid became crowded as the many so called Legendary Pokémon came to answer Arceus's call. Mew was tugging on Mewtwo's arm to get him to hurry up.

"Come on Mewtwo." She insisted "Arceus was very insistent, we need to hurry!" Mewtwo sighed. He had been alone for the past thousand years with the exception of an occasional visit from Mew, and he had liked it. Now he was being forced to meet all of the powerful Pokémon that he had been trying so hard to avoid. Mew wrapped her tail around his arm and pulled harder as she tried to get inside.

"Mew… is this really necessary?" Mewtwo grumbled. "I'm not even sure that I count."

"Oh, you're just upset that you turned out to be immortal." She smiled. Her eyes softened. "It's not so bad you know… you get to spend more time with me!" She smiled. Mewtwo groaned. "Aw, you know you like me." Mew smiled as she flew a small circle around his head. Mewtwo decided that it would be better in the long run if he went along with Mew. He hated to admit it but finding out that he was immortal had depressed him. Not that he wanted to die… but he didn't want to live forever either. Mew was chattering on about how she was looking forward to seeing Celebi and Shaymin again and how she hoped that Groudon had gotten over Mewtwo's existence (and subsequently trying to kill him). Mewtwo ignored her as they walked into the counsel room. Suddenly Mew smiled and flew off.

"Shaymin!" She cried out happily. The small hedgehog-like Pokémon smiled at the pink feline who was circling her.

"Hello Mew." She smiled. "It's good to see you so happy, even in times like these." Mew smiled. Shaymin looked behind her and smiled politely at Mewtwo. "It's good to see you two Mewtwo, I was afraid that you wouldn't come."

"Why's that?" Mew demanded. "Why are you so happy to see him?" Shaymin was taken aback at her abrupt response and put up her paws in surrender.

"Whoa Mew, take it easy… I just was glad to see that you managed to drag him out of his cave." Mewtwo looked at Mew in surprise. Why was she acting so protective of him all of a sudden?

"Oh… well, I'm glad I was able to get him here too." Mew smiled nervously. "Oh look! There's Celebi!" She cried out as she flew off quickly. Shaymin looked up at the confused clone and smiled.

"Well, it looks like you and Mew are getting along very well." She said. Mewtwo shrugged.

"She just wouldn't leave me alone till I came." He grumbled, glancing in the direction as the small pink Pokémon who was chattering with Celebi.

"Still," Shaymin added. "It's good that you came, some of the others need to see you as an ally. And the only way that will happen is if you meet with them and convince them that you are not a threat."

"The only reason I would do that was if I cared about what they thought of me." Mewtwo snorted as he walked away. Shaymin shook her head, the only reason that Groudon and a few of the others wouldn't kill him was out of respect for her and Mew. It would help a lot if Mewtwo actually cared about what others thought about him.

…

Arceus pounded his hoof on the ground to quiet things down. The other Pokémon settled down and turned to listen to them.

"Fellow Pokémon… thank you for coming… it brings me pleasure to see you all…" He stopped and glanced at Mewtwo. "Well… most of you." There was a small scuffle as Celebi, Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf held Mew back. Arceus raised an eyebrow at her and then continued. "As you know, the humans have become extremely aggressive lately. They have already made advances that have driven out Ho-Oh from his home in the Bell tower." Several sympathetic murmurs could be heard as all eyes turned to the Phoenix. His rainbow feathers were drooping in sadness and his head hung low.

"How could this happen?" everyone turned to Rayquaza. "How could Ho-Oh been driven away?"

"The humans have made considerable advances in technology." Arceus answered. "They have weapons that can harm even us." Groudon and Kyogre glanced at each other and snorted. "As far as we know the situation will only get worse. It is because of this that I have decided that we must leave." There was a moment of silence and then everyone started talking at once.

"Leaving?"

"Where will we go?"

"Where could we go?"

"How is this the only option?" Suddenly a voice rose above the others.

"Leave… ARE YOU CRAZY?" Everyone turned in surprise to the small Celebi…

Wow... Celebi standing up to Arceus? Bet you didn't see that one coming. Don't forget to review and prepare for the next chapter.
