On with the show
Aura is the force of life and death, and those who control it, can choose the fates of the ones who don't – Crimson Revenant
Thus, we've seen so far many amazing adventures. First, we've started with discovering a new reality, that breaks all of the laws that we know, soon following, we've seen what we once called fiction become real, but from today, for 8 years, we'll behold a new level. In a world very similar to our own, was a forest, lush green bushes surrounded it all, along with trees of various berries, allowing the possibility of it being habitable for people, but mostly for animals, but these are very uncommon indeed. In this forest, reside what look like pidgeons, but they're far from just pidgeons, these have brown feathers along with a scheme of beige and white, giving them a majestic look, specially for the larger ones, who are at least 7 feet tall, with wings that are so strong that their flapping will cause strong wings that are able to even take down a tree. These, are known as Pidgeots, majestic birds that fly in flocks with their pre-evolved versions, the Pidgeys and the Pidgeottos. This, is Viridian Forest, which lays in the middle of the rustic and simple village known as Pallet Town, a town that attracts many people that wish a simple life, and Viridian City, the capital of the region known as Kanto.
In a clearing, we see many purple mouses running beside bigger beige ones as well flocks of the Pidgey evolution line around, the creatures all enjoying the peaceful day in the naturalist region. The mouses were known as the Rattata and Raticate, both Normal Type creatures, but their peaceful day would soon turn into the most amazing event that ever happened in that world's history. As they were relaxing and eating with their families, the space-time continuum soon broke as what looked like a warping breach in the air appeared, and from that same breach, came a figure. That figure, was the only figure that would be able to open a breach like that one; that figure, was the tanned boy that was now 19 years old, wielding a sheath in his left hip with a sword in it, his black and red sledgehammer and his signature gauntlets; that figure...
Was Alex Sawyers Prower.
"Bane?"
"Yes Alex?"
"Data, I want to know our location"
"On it... Apparently, we're in a clearing in the middle of Viridian Forest"
"Viridian Forest? That only exists in the Kanto Region"
"And there's only one world that has the Kanto Region"
"Yes..."

ALEX THE CRIMSON REVENANT
SEASON 4: GOTTA CATCH THEM ALL
"Disclaimer, we own nothing but OC's and plot"
(End Song)
CHAPTER 1: THE AURA PROPHECY
"So, this is the Pokémon world huh? Very interesting" Alex muttered to himself, as Bane, his symbiote, nodded.
"Indeed, though I'm impressed by the fact that you're calm on the outside at least" Bane added, chuckling inside Alex's mind as the tanned 19 year old boy just shook his head.
"And what do you expect? To me to jump like a little kid on a candy shop?"
"Well, you did that in Hot Wheels City"
That definitely hit the nail on Alex, as he blushed at the memory of him jumping up and down in glee.
"Yeah, well, that's a different case, Hot Wheels was my childhood and be in the place that every Hot Wheels fan wishes to be is astounding"
"Still not an excuse, but I'll let it slide this time. So, anything you want to do in here first?"
Alex now put his fingers on his chin, now considering what to do, and the answer came fairly quickly to him.
"In fact, yes. Prepare the Venom Blast, I want everything in this dimension scanned, including parallel ones"
"In case you find your doppelganger right?"
"Yes, they might be great allies to help me in my cause" Alex replied, now holding the sheathed sword on his hip as he remembered the encounter with his doppelganger, Scythex The Reaper.
Flashback
As the others left the Acceledrome –Gelorum included and the Blue Drones– Alex was now alone in the mountain he called home for a while, gazing at each track that he ran through, and the Wheel of Power, the thing that led him to so many adventures in this dimension. However, soon he felt that something –or rather someone– was watching him. He closed his eyes, focusing on his other senses, feeling a rush of wind blowing 57º degrees to his right, then 63º to his left, and finally, he noticed a sound, it almost sounded like there was something cutting the wind. He opened his eyes as he leaned the left half of his body to the right, narrowly dodging a scythe, which looked like it was made of the sharpest bone, as he then slowed time down, and grabbed the scythe and threw it back to where it came from. Whoever threw it, was shocked; because in less than a second, Alex grabbed his scythe and threw it back, but his speed wasn't his concern; what amazed him...
Was that only he could wield the scythe.
He soon jumped as he dodged the incoming scythe and landed in the floor, standing now in front of the boy now known as the Crimson Revenant, who just glared at him and was ready to attack. The figure was only wearing a cloak, which only showed the glow of his eyes, that were a deep turquoise color, and the scythe now returned to his hand, giving him the look of a reaper, and if you were a demonologist, you would easily confuse him with a Glif.
"Who the hell are you?!" Alex demanded, his voice and body language was yelling practically that he wouldn't hesitate to attack if he had to, this surprised the figure.
"I challenge you to a duel, Crimson Revenant; as for who I am, I'll tell you if you defeat me. But if I win, you will give me that Universal Weapon that you carry" The figure challenged, pointing at the black and red sledgehammer that was on Alex's back. The crimson raven haired boy was now having a little conflict with his mind, but the decision came fairly quickly.
"Challenge accepted"
(Play Hated You From Hello by Downplay)
Alex now dashed at lightning speed towards the reaper, gauntlets immediately on his hand, while the other one went at the same speed, now looking to slice the opponent in front of him, but Alex disappeared in a flash from ahead and appeared behind him, landing the punch Alex wanted to score. The figure flew forward but with a side flip he recovered and threw the scythe. Alex instead of dodging it, now just stood where he was, and right a few meters before it hit, Alex slowed time down and grabbed it again, this time, stopping it on its tracks and was now wielding it.
Time now went back to normal, as the figure now watched how his opponent was wielding his scythe, but even he had his tricks. He raised his hand forward, making the scythe along with Alex to fly towards him, but the raven haired boy was smarter than that. In a split second, he let the scythe go and grabbed the Universal Weapon while spinning in the air, now hitting the figure in the air as he now grabbed the scythe, but was too slow to defend himself. He now flew to the side, crashing with a track in the Acceledrome, as Alex now glared at the scythe.
"'That scythe... it isn't normal, I can feel magic in it, and it's so familiar'" He whispered to himself and gave a mental command to Bane.
The figure chuckled now, startling Alex as he stood en garde now, ready to defend himself as the figure stood stood up.
"No doubt that you're the Crimson Revenant, your thinking is faster than anybody's, and I'm impressed. Though, I still got more tricks under my sleeve" He told him, as he split the scythe in two, shocking Alex in the process as he remembered why that scythe was so familiar, and as on cue, Bane had told him the name of the scythe.
"Death's Harvester"
Alex teleported quickly now behind the figure, trying to land another hit, but the figure was quick enough and blocked it, now slicing Alex's stomach. The tanned boy couldn't help but grimace in pain as his stomach was sliced, but thanks to Bane, his cellular regeneration was faster than ever, as it immediately closed and landed a kick to the ribs; he even heard some cracking. The figure yelled in pain, as blood came from the injury, which was the greatest mistake you could do in a duel with Alex. The raven haired boy now brought his two feet to the hooded figure's face and landed a double kick, giving both more space as Alex landed with a back flip, and the figure fell on its back, blood flying towards Alex who absorbed it with gusto, with the hood falling as well; and what Alex saw, was nothing that he would expect.
The figure was in fact a black and turquoise fox, wearing the same wardrobe Alex was wearing, but instead of red it was turquoise, and now, his big, bushy tail was loose, shocking Alex the most. That figure, was so familiar, like he met it before, but then, he remembered his youth days, and the answer came quickly.
"You're... me"
Silence consumed the whole Acceledrome.
(End song)
"You're wrong, I'm Scythex The Reaper, and I'm not you, Crimson Revenant" The fox, now known as Scythex replied as he got up, but Alex knew better.
"No, I know who you are, your name is Alex Craveler, you're a survivor from a dimension that was known as Off Saving The World, along with the human soldier Nova, the alien cat Talon, and your girlfriend Macy" Alex told him, surprising Scythex at the information and at just how much he knew about him.
"How do you know all of it?!" He demanded, but Alex now brought his iPad, and opened an app as he showed it to Scythex, which was showing a book named Off Saving The Multiverse (Fourth Wall goodbye TT).
"Because you're the main character of this book, telling every single adventure of you" He told the anthro fox, who was now reading the book like crazy.
Scythex's POV
No way, this kid is right, every single of my adventures is here, from how I met the group, to how Macy and I started dating, but, why did he say that I was him? That's impossible, or is it?
"Hey, I can see that you were right about the book, but, why did you say that I was you?" I asked him, curiosity was very noticeable on my voice, but his answer was the one that made me shut up.
"Because I wrote this book four years ago, your main role was to be a parallel version of me, and help me to protect the multiverse"
No way, now I understand how he was able to use the scythe, because only I am able to use it; however, I was then remembered of our duel, and I lost. But there was something else that I wanted to give him, and I'm not going back on my decision.
End of Scythex's POV
"I fully understand, and I'm impressed; however, I lost the duel, and there was something else that I wanted to give you" Scythex told him, as he went for his tail and grabbed what looked like a box, which was making Alex get curious.
"What's in that box?"
"You'll learn soon enough"
As soon as Scythex said that, he opened the box, which revealed its content. It was a purple single edged sword, almost looking like a katana; its hilt was sheathed, and the base above the hilt had a spherical ruby in it, which glowed as much as Alex's own eyes; he immediately recognized the sword.
"Is that the Bladix? The sword that was created with a demon's energy in-"
"The To Love Ru dimension? Yes it is," Scythex finished for him, chuckling a little. "At least Rito won't have to dodge any slices and won't have to try to ignore some exposed breasts" He continued.
In another dimension
"ACHOO!"
As soon as he sneezed, he accidentally slipped on the floor, resulting on him crashing on to Momo, and when they landed on the floor, he was on top of her, accidentally holding her right breast. Both had deep blushes on their faces as Rin and Yami were throwing death glares to him.
"Rito..."
"S-SS-SSS-S-SSSS-SORRY!"
Back to the Acceledrome
"Poor Rito, I can already feel him falling victim of his bad luck again" Alex chuckled, as the boy and the fox just started laughing out loud, echoing through the whole mountain. As it quieted down, Alex gazed at the sword.
"So, why did you brought it here?" Alex asked, he was now being serious, while Scythex just gazed at him and smiled.
"Because I was going to give it to you if you defeated me in a duel, which you did. It is rightfully yours now" Scythex replied, and he then started to walk away, but Alex grabbed his arm, stopping him on his tracks.
"Wait, before you go, I would like to give you something too" Alex told him as he was looking through his pocket, and after a while, he took his hand out, which was holding what looked like a watch, and gave it to Scythex.
"This way we can keep in touch, maybe someday the multiverse will be in danger and I will need help" He told the fox, who smiled and nodded as he put it in his left pulse.
"And if I need help, I'll call you, okay?" Alex nodded, as the two shook hands, and Scythex left.
End of Flashback
"The Venom Blast is ready Alex" Bane told him, snapping Alex out of his thoughts, but smirked at the notification.
"Release it"
Soon, an electric wave was released from Alex's body, which went through the whole Kanto Region in 10 seconds, and the whole planet was hit by the electric wave in 30 seconds. After that, the electric wave was still going, now hitting the other planets and other dimensions, and then, everything in that universe was scanned.
"The whole universe has been scanned Alex" Bane told him, as it was now time for the second part of the Venom Blast.
"Extract it"
That was the part, which now the electric wave returns to him, now leaving trails of it in the whole dimension, including parallel ones, and when it reached Alex, everything was quiet.
"Venom Blast scan complete, all of the data was gathered" Bane notified his carrier, but then he noticed that Alex was slightly growling.
"Ehh, Alex?"
No response, instead, Alex just growled louder, and louder, and louder, until...
"GrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeaaaaaAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
He released a scream as a light engulfed him, and now, very amazing events were occurring in different parts of the Pokémon world.
In the very peaceful Pallet Town, stood a boy, he looked like he was 7 years old, he had messy black hair, he was wearing a yellow sleeveless shirt with jeans shorts and red shoes. He was currently crying now as he was running through the forest, why is he crying? Because his best friend, a mahogany haired boy, who was 7 years old just like him, had a fight, and his best friend said the words that would break any friendship.
"I hate you!"
The boy was Ash Ketchum, son of Delia Sakaki and Thrawn Ketchum. His best friend was Gary Oak, grandson of the Pokémon Professor Samuel Oak. As he kept running, he reached a cliff, with his head on his hands and crying non stop, but then, an electric wave hit him, which made something ignite on him, making him starting to growl, and a while later, he released a scream, which made his body now have a blue glow flaring on him, and a light engulfed him, which alerted the Pokémon around and witnessed him being engulfed by the light.
In an island that nobody knows, right between the Orange Archipiélagos and the Cinnabar Island, inside a building stood a group of men and women, wearing white lab coats, were wandering around non stop, now gazing with awe into two capsules, one containing a humanoid Pokémon, a tube being connected by the spine and the back of its head, it had greyish purple skin, the torso was a deep purple which formed a thick tail that ended with what looked like an orb, its arms were very thin, and its hands had only three fingers, a globe on each finger, and the other capsule contained what looked like a girl, that was only 7 years old, having long blonde hair, skin that was almost pale and eyes that glowed like emeralds, but not today. Both human and Pokémon had their eyes open, which were glowing a dangerous red, petrifying the scientists on the island.
Now, in a deserted island, between the Fire, Ice and Thunder Islands, was a secret room, a Slowbro resting in it, but then, the altar started to glow red, which woke the Slowbro as he gazed at a few words that were starting to form, and he knew, this is just the beginning.
In Bell Tower, currently located in the Johto Region, were four Pokémon, standing in front of the tower that glowed red, the first Pokémon resembled a saber tooth tiger with a vast brown mane, his face had what looked like a red mask, yellow fringes were on his sides; This, was the Fire Type of the Legendary Beasts trio Entei. On his right, stood another Pokémon, this time, the Pokémon had blue skin, while its belly was lighter in color, a vast purple mane was let loose and flippers came from the back of its head; this, was the Water Type of the Legendary Beasts trio known as Suicune. And on the left, stood another Pokémon that resembled a saber tooth, but this time, it was yellow, a light blue mane came from the back of its head, along with a purple one, blue lightning stripes ran through its body like tattoos; this, was the Electric Type and the last member of the Legendary Beasts trio known as Raikou. And finally, in front of the beasts, stood a Pokémon that resembled a bird, its body was red along with a white stripe, its wings were the most fascinating part, which glowed with each color of the rainbow; this one, was the one in charge of the Legendary Beasts trio and a member of the Tower Duo, this, was the Rainbow Pokémon Ho-oh.
The four gazed at the Bell Tower in awe, not knowing what was happening to the tower, but they knew that something big was coming.
We're now in the north of Kanto, in the kingdom of Rota, while inside a castle, stood a woman, wearing clothes that only a queen would wear, and her gaze was now towards a tree, with the top glowing the same color the Bell Tower and the temple in the Whirl Islands glowed, as words were appearing in front of the Tree Of Beginning, while in the storage of the castle, a staff was glowing red, as a soul that was trapped in it just said one word:
"Revan?"
Now in the Sinnoh Region, in Iron Island, stood two figures, the first one was a man, known as Riley, a man that's on the path to become an Aura Guardian, while on his side, stood his loyal Jackal Pokémon known as Lucario. Both were meditating, trying to sharpen their senses, but then they felt a powerful presence take part on the universe, which startled them by a million.
"Lucario, it's coming from Kanto, we must leave, now" His trustful companion nodded, as the two rushed to the docks to take a boat to the Kanto Region, but Lucario then stopped dead on his tracks, as his eyes now started to glow red, while Riley just gazed at his Pokémon in concern.
Somewhere else in Sinnoh, in a little town at the base of Mount Coronet called Celestic Town, a 13 year old blonde haired girl named Cynthia Shirona who was recently joined her grandma Carolina Shirona in one of her expeditions screamed out in terror as the ruins she visited to feel at peace soon started to shake while the runes printed on the walls started to glow red, now forming new words that she was now scared of.
In the Kalos Region, in the coast city known as Anistar City, right beside the Anistar Gym, the monolith that many crowned as the Sundial, started to glow a deep red, scaring for good the inhabitants of the city, while inside the gym, the Gym Leader Olympia was in a lesson with her students, but then she entered into a trance, as her eyes glowed and her trustful Meowstics showed a new vision, and in all places of the world, the same words were said.
In a different dimension, in a hall that was completely golden, Arceus, the Original Pokémon, stood in front of the scene, now witnessing the phenomenons occurring in the world she created, as a smile appeared on her face.
"It's time to reveal the warning" She commented, as the words that were about to be said, would indeed induce fear.
The words that were said around the whole universe, were these:
In a world consumed by the dark, you shall follow the crimson light
If not, the world will turn to ash, and the revenant justice will fall upon
The world will be restored with the force of the thunder, the mind and the flare of life
Once the world is restored by dawn, it will be guided by the power of One
Once the words were said, everything returned to normal all around the globe. The same glow that engulfed Alex now died down, making all of the Rattata, Raticate, Pidgey, Pidgeotto and Pidgeot gaze in complete awe at the scene.
"Bane? Report" Alex demanded, which apparently snapped the symbiote out of its trance, and quickly went to check on everything.
"Oh, y-yes, on it" Bane replied. Alex noticed the uneasiness in his friend, like he had seen God himself, but he decided to not ask anything... yet. After a while...
"Alex! The news in all of the regions have gone crazy, apparently that Venom Blast triggered many phenomenons all around the globe!" He shouted, which surprised the 19 year old boy at that.
"Show me the channels" Alex commanded, and with a mental nod from his friend, holographic screens appeared which showed the news channels from the regions, the results were shocking.
"Greetings Kanto, from Kanto News here we are having reports of very strange incidents occurring all around the world, the cause of this, nobody knows"
"From Johto the famous Bell Tower has been glowing a color nobody knows and the Legendary Beasts known as Entei, Suicune and Raikou had been caught in sight along with the master of the tower known as the legendary Rainbow Pokémon Ho-oh, nobody knows the reason of why this phenomenon is happening"
"In Hoenn we're now seeing amazing storms as well active volcanos going wild, is this the end of the world? What's causing this series of events?"
"In Sinnoh the famous ruins of Celestic Town had started to take a dangerous turn as it is acting like it is coming to life! How can this happen?!"
"In the Kalos Region the Sundial located in Anistar City has been recently showing a very concerning behaviour along with the Gym Leader of the town and the medium Olympia, however, the..."
"Most..."
"Shocking..."
"Part..."
"Is..."
"This..."
"The message that was left said:
In a world consumed by the dark, you shall follow the crimson light
If not, the world will turn to ash, and the revenant justice will fall upon
The world will be restored with the force of the thunder, the mind and the flare of life
Once the world is restored by dawn, it will be guided by the power of One
Is this the end of the world?! Or the beginning of a new era?!"
"This is Kanto News..."
"This is Johto Reports..."
"This is Hoenn Alert..."
"This is Sinnoh in the Morning..."
"This is Unova Now..."
"This is Kalos on the Move..."
"And stay tuned!"
Alex had to admit, this wasn't what he expected, he wouldn't have figured that so many dangerous events would occur if he deployed the Venom Blast, which certainly created a question in his mind.
"Wow, I would never expect so many incidents with just an electric wave" Bladix commented in Alex's mind, this was the first time this cursed blade actually spoke.
"Neither I. Bane? Had the same happened with the last 3 times that I used the Venom Blast?" Alex asked.
"No, this is something else entirely, and those words the news said, they looked like a prophecy" Bane stated, surprising Alex and Bladix.
"A prophecy? That's interesting, but, now that I think about it, there are a few words on that phrase that I can catch the meaning" Bladix commented, this caught both Alex's and Bane's attention.
"You do? Can you decipher it?" Alex asked.
Bladix merely nodded in his head. "I actually did it already, and you're part of that same prophecy. The first line as you know said In a world consumed by the dark, which means that the world will be drowned by evil, though, there will be good people in that same world"
"Like in my own" Alex muttered, while Bladix merely nodded again.
"Exactly, the other part of the first line said you shall follow the crimson light, and since you're also known as the Crimson Light, it must be meaning that people would have to follow you and will be able to rebuild the world back to its glory. The second line said this time If not, the world will turn to ash, and the revenant justice will fall upon, the first half also refers to someone else, while the other half mentions you again, since every time you bring someone to justice people call it the Revenant Justice"
"It seems someone in this dimension has been keeping track on me" Alex chuckled, as Bane nodded.
"You don't know how right you are Alex, the Accelerons were a great example of it" He added.
"The third line we know that it said The world will be restored with the force of the thunderthe mind and the flare of life, that line in this world makes the mention of three powers: Electric, Psychic and Aura, you Alex already fill the Electric part since your main secondary power is Electricity, while your primary is my own power source. The other two I must guess that they are a Psychic specialist and an Aura Guardian, one that is so powerful that nobody will say there was someone more powerful than him. And lastly, the fourth and last line said Once the world is restored by dawn, it will be guided by the power of One. This last line also makes a mention of someone else, however, this one isn't of much importance, but it also mentions that few people will guide the new restored world, or as they're called: The Chosen Ones"
Bane was awestruck at Bladix's explanation, he might be a vampyric blade, but it had its thousand years of knowledge, and he's a demon, which means that he had seen a lot in life. Alex on the other hand smiled but then turned serious as he sensed a presence, or rather, presences.
"Can you feel it?" Alex commented, as his two 'Devil Arms' nodded.
"Then get ready"
Alex now had his right hand on Bladix's hilt, while the left hand was with the left gauntlet. The bushes that surrounded the whole clearing started to stir, and then to slightly moving, to then rustling wildly, as the trees and the ground started to shake. The grip on the hilt of the demonic blade got so tight that his hand turned to the pale white that was now in oblivion, and Alex felt power, raw power; it was so powerful that he thought he would actually have another Venom Burst at the energy that he was sensing and absorbing. His face got more threatening as he started to growl, now flashing the fangs that he had for teeth since the first Venom Burst and his eyes to have an unnatural glow while his body started to have a red flare enveloping him. If you ever see him giving you that death glare, you are warned to be in a funeral in just a few minutes.
"Get you whoever you are!" He yelled, the flare enveloping him now turned stronger and glowed brighter.
From the bushes, the first thing he saw, was a little yellow Pokémon with its ears being black on the tips and on the tip of its tail that resembled a lightning, its cheeks were a rosy red, which were releasing a few sparks of electricity, it was a Pichu Alex recognized. After it, was a slightly bigger Pokémon, this time it was full yellow with the exception of the black tips on its ears and lightning shaped tail, it had horizontal brown stripes on its back and its cheeks were redder than the Pichu's, it was a Pikachu, Pichu's evolved form. After that, it was an even bigger Pokémon, this time it was full orange with a white belly, its ears and hind paws were black, while the tail looked normal, but it ended with a yellow lightning in the tip, the Pokémon's cheeks were completely yellow, it was a Raichu, Pikachu's evolved form and the final evolution of the Pichu evolution line.
Alex was now confused of why was the Pichu evolution line in Viridian Forest since it wasn't normal, but then, it would be even more confused, as Pokémon from every region was arriving to Viridian Forest, apparently, those that came from other regions came with either Flying, Water, Psychic or Dragon Types. He was surprised to see every evolutionary line in here, from Charmanders, to Decidueyes, just how many are there? He looked around and recognized some Pokémon's hostile pose, as the grip tightened. Suddenly, a flash appeared behind him, and on instinct, he unsheathed the sword and aimed for its neck, and what he saw, could be said that it was shocking, but not for him.
In front of him, stood a woman, she looked like she was 22 years old, with being 5.11 feet tall, a few inches lower than him, she had white skin, with her red eyes being just as hypnotizing as his own, with so much life and power reflecting in them, he knew that she's not someone to mess with. She also had gorgeous white hair with a few golden bangs that fell to her ankles, a golden cross combined with a circle was floating behind the woman, she was only wearing a white kimono with golden features that ended on her knees, with it showing a partial amount of her cleavage and her perfectly rounded EE Cups, and to finally end it, she was only wearing simple sandals that completed her wardrobe. In one word: A Goddess.
After analyzing the woman, he observed the golden cross behind her, and realized who she was, she was Arceus herself, the Divine Pokémon. He would've been shocked to see the Original Pokémon here, but he saw many things in his life, not to mention that his own powers could match her own, he won't win, but he won't lose, it was simply a stalemate. He sheathed the sword back, his gaze not toning down just a bit. She only had a smile but he saw beyond her eyes and saw that she was actually surprised, not by the fact that a sword was a mere inch away from her throat, but indeed, because she noticed that he knew who she was and was unfazed. After clearing her throat, all of the Pokémon bowed to her as she just stared at him.
"Greetings human, I am Arceus, the Goddess Pokémon, and I would like to welcome you to my dimension" She greeted, offering her own hand at him, who took it and both shook hands.
"I'm impressed to see the Divine Pokémon visiting me, well, thanks for the welcoming comittee, I'm Alex Sawyers Prower, the Crimson Revenant" He replied, giving a short bow in reverence to her. She quietly giggled at how formal he was.
"I know pretty well who you are, Alex. I've been waiting for your arrival" She told him.
Sure thing he would've been surprised, but after seeing the prophecy and after meeting with the Accelerons, he can expect everything now, so it wasn't big news for him at all.
"I could tell. So, is there anything you need me for, Lady Arceus?" He asked, making her blush a very tiny bit, but that wasn't unnoticed by him. He sure was a gentleman.
"Indeed there is, but it won't be here, Revenant" She replied.
Right after she said that, a portal opened behind her, startling the Pokémon surrounding them, but the 19 year old boy was still unfazed, he was used to sudden appearances, after all, he made such very often.
"Follow me"
And he did as told. He soon went behind her as the two entered the portal.
As they crossed the portal, Alex and Arceus now stood in a hall that was completely golden, its massive columns were adorned as spirals, while in the middle of two crimson curtains, stood a golden throne, the cushion was purely white and made of silk, and right a few meters in front of the throne, stood a pool, that mirrored every corner of the planet. Alex knew already where he was.
"The Hall of Origin, home of the Goddess Pokémon and a place where only the purest ones can enter" He muttered in surprise, as Arceus nodded.
"Indeed, welcome to my home Alex, here, I look out for the world and its inhabitants, and here I can speak normally like a human" She replied.
"Likewise"
As she reached the throne, her body started to glow, and it was so bright that it would force everyone to close their own eyes, but Alex seemed used to such brightness. Her body now started to grow in height, now standing 11 feet tall, with her body structure forcing her now to stand on all fours, her head now resembling a dinosaur, with her eyes being purely red, silver fur covered her upper body, and the golden cross now fused with her body. This was Arceus, now in her true form, it showed so much authority and omnipotence. Alex had to kneel before her for respect at a deity, while she just chuckled.
"No need to kneel Alex, if you didn't bowed to me in my human form then you should less do it in my true form" She told him, but he just smiled and shook his head.
"Even so, it's just respect, after all, you created this dimension, and is my duty as a knight to bow before my superiors" The tone wasn't jokingly, it was the most sincere answer that he gave.
Right after the pulse, he considered himself as a knight, now with the duty to bring justice and obey its masters, while Arceus wasn't his master, she was still a queen, a ruler. That sure surprised her, as a blush appeared on her face. It was then that she remembered why she brought him to the Hall, and then she forced her blush to fade away and gazed at the boy.
"Alex, I will need you to right now turn yourself invisible. I will summon the Legendaries to a meeting and I cannot do it if you're known, at least at the beginning. I will explain the situation, and when I tell you, you reveal yourself" She told him.
He merely nodded and then he just turned invisible, now leaning into the column that was to the right of the throne. She nodded back and focused her mind.
All Legendaries assemble immediately to the Hall of Origin for an urgent meeting"She said through telepathy.
In an instant, flashes started to appear through the whole Hall, and forms started to form, which now revealed the Legendaries that are currently known (With the exception of one). Moltres, Articuno, Zapdos, Mew, Entei, Suicune, Raikou, Lugia, Ho-oh, Celebi, Latios, Latias, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Deoxys, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Jirachi, Manaphy, Phione, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Shaymin, Regigigas, Cresselia, Darkrai, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Heatran, Victini, Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, Keldeo, Thundurus, Tornadus, Landorus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yvetal, the two Zygardes, Diancie, Volcanion, Hoopa, Magearna, Tapu Lele, Tapu Koko, Tapu Bulu, Tapu Fini, Solgaleo, Lunala and Necrozna. All of the Legendaries were standing right now in front of the throne while Arceus now took a seat in it.
"I am glad you have arrived my children, and in time" She started, as the Legendaries roared in agreement.
"Mother, why have you summoned us here today?" Palkia asked first, and the others roared once more.
"I have summoned you here because, I know most of you are wondering about the incidents that have been occurring in the world recently, and the prophecy shown" She replied, as every head in the Hall nodded.
"The Bell Tower didn't had such a reaction since the Chosen One's birth, and yet the tower had a stronger reaction this time" Ho-oh wondered.
"Same with the Whirl Islands, the temple never had glowed red and it was very strong" Lugia added.
"And the Distortion World itself has been affected too Mother, many electric waves flowed through, and I could feel power in them" Giratina finished.
Arceus could understand the Legendaries' distress since they never knew the identity of the Crimson Revenant and even less his abilities, which is a major threat to any, and seriously, any deity. She was calm nonetheless, and the mentioned boy could feel that his reveal was approaching.
"Calm down my children, I am sure that this won't be an issue, however, the era that we know it's close to its end, the humans will pe purified" She stated.
Alex already knew what was about to come, and he was right, Arceus expected this too. All of the Legendaries roared in anger and hatred, with Darkrai being the first to pull the trigger.
"Those humans, they don't even deserve to be in this planet, they corrupt our comrades with those devices that they call 'Pokéballs' only for their own selfish purposes. I will never submit to that scum!" He spat.
Alex on his full sanity would be mad at the Nightmare Pokémon for generalizing, but he had to control himself, and besides, he's seen the deepest truth of life, and the worst of it on its maximum level, he couldn't help but think that if he was one himself we would've thought the same way, but he's a vigilante, he might have some... 'drastic' ways to imply justice, but he does, and nobody, not even a deity like Arceus, can fool him.
"I have to disagree on that Darkrai, remember that there are good people in the world as well. Haven't you seen the Chosen One? I can feel his heart, and it is the purest one that I've ever seen" Ho-oh defended, but then, it was turn for Volcanion to scoff.
"Oh yeah? So how can you explain about Magearna and that organization that tried to get her for their purposes?!" He spat, and then the blue Zygarde stepped in.
"I agree, humanity is too corrupted, there isn't a single soul besides the Chosen One that is so pure" He added, but then, Arceus stopped everything.
"While I know that your hatred towards humanity is justified, it does not give you the right to generalize. There are pure souls besides the Chosen One, and what I'm about to say will make some if not every single one of you to disagree, but in the mean time, once the Chosen Ones begin their journeys, you will join their teams" She stated.
Now that was the last straw Alex noticed, as the whole Hall of Origin was filled with deafening roars of defying from the Legendaries.
"I will never join a human! I would rather go back to my White Sphere form than to join that scum!" Reshiram shouted, Kyurem, the Swords of Justice and the Legendary Genes nodded, Zekrom however just stood there in thought, and came to a conclusion.
"If there is something that I've noticed in humanity, it is the fact that they can change their ways if they see the truth. If the Chosen Ones' ideals are pure and honest, then me, my mate and my spawn will join them" He commented. The Legendaries in the whole room just looked at him in disbelief. But then, surprisingly, Hoopa just realized that Arceus said Chosen Ones, wasn't there just one?
"Wait, Mom, did you actually said 'Chosen Ones'?" He asked, and the Divine Pokémon nodded.
"I did"
"Then who is the second Chosen One?" Xerneas asked, and the red Zygarde nodded in agreement.
Alex noticed that it was time, as Arceus nodded to him, and he nodded in return. The Legendaries then witnessed that the column was now having red electricity run through it, as the air now took the form of the 19 year old boy with black messy hair and crimson lightnings on the sides. They all roared in anger and disgust.
"A HUMAN IN THE HALL!"
"HOW IS A HUMAN SCUM IN THE MOST SACRED OF ALL PLACES?!"
He, funnily, just stood there waving his hand to them while some were charging their attacks. Arceus was going to stop them, but then she noticed Alex's gaze, which was directed towards her.
"Don't worry about me, after all, I'm as powerful as you are" A voice said in her head. She looked around and saw that Alex was smiling, she deducted that he used telepathy to communicate to her, which was impossible since nobody, not even the strongest Psychic Type that is about to be created (hint hint ;) ) could get into her mind.
The attacks were fully charged, and now, they fired.
A/N: That's it for the day guys, hope you liked it, and don't worry, this saga's books will be kinda updated in disorder, but each book represents a new ark, which will have absolutely nothing to do with the previous book so you won't get lost, and there will be flashbacks so you can keep up, and stay tuned.
BTW, this is how Alex looks: art/Alex-617187674
I'm not so good at sketching and this was made last year, so I hope you know now how he looks.
Smell ya' later
