Author's note: I would just like to say that this is based off of a very good fic written by cresellia called Eevee high school tale (- Link) that I hope you read. Also, if anyone comes up with a better title, feel free to put it in the reviews. Thanks and enjoy!
Caterpie cowered in the tall grasses that covered Beua Plains. He had come here to visit Bulbasaur, but he doubted he could find him. The blizzard had made sure of that!
Caterpie had no idea why the normally sunny plain's weather had turned violently cold, but he had a feeling that it wasn't good. This feeling was intensified when he saw several dark shapes coming towards him. He didn't move and hoped they would go away, but they kept getting closer and closer. They stopped, and then he could make out what Pokémon they were. There was a Weavile, a Metagross, and a Scizor.
"Good job with this blizzard, Weavile. By the time she gets here, Victini won't be able to use her fire moves." Said Scizor. Weavile nodded, pleased. Scizor continued "Any news from Macargo's group?" The Metagross shook his head. "Oh well. With all the plains folk he riled up, they should catch Darkrai in no time. Anyway, let's get ready to finish the hunt." They all grinned smugly. "Victini won't escape us this time!" The Weavile added.
Caterpie was confused. Victini was a good Pokémon, right? So if they were trying to catch her they must be bad. But Darkrai was a bad Pokémon, so if they were trying to catch him they were good, right? It was so confusing!
"Okay, places everyone! It's almost time to start! Victini won't know what hit her." Ordered Scizor. Caterpie watched in horror as the Weavile used an Ice Beam on Scizor, freezing him instantly. Scizor looked half dead, trapped in that icy cocoon.
The other two Pokémon jumped behind frozen shrubs and grasses and hid. Neither one was aware of the shivering Bug type hiding only a few feet away. If they had bothered to look then they would have saw him immediately, but they didn't, as they were watching a faintly glowing shape coming closer. As it got closer, Caterpie realized that it was none other then Victini herself!
Then Caterpie saw the plan. He knew what was going to happen next. "Victini! It's a trap!" He yelled urgently. Shocked, Victini looked. She took a few moments to register who spoke, as did the Weavile and Metagross, before she flew up. Seeing their chances slipping away, the two Pokémon took a desperate pounce. But it was too late for them.
With a frustrated growl, Weavile turned around and shot an Ice Beam at Caterpie, freezing him to the spot. Suddenly, in a shower of ice shards and an amazing display of brute force, the Scizor broke free! He battled the freezing winds to get to his prey. Years of training paid off, unfortunately for Victini. He caught up with her and grabbed her in his crushing pincers.
Victini began to struggling to get free and breath. Then she stopped moving. Triumphantly, Scizor held her up like a trophy. He loosened his grip slightly, and then realized his mistake too late. Victini let loose a blinding Flash, followed by a teleport.
Empty handed, Scizor returned to the ground. "Let's go. She was weak. She couldn't even break free of my grip, nor turn invisible. We will find her and bring her down!" He snarled. "Should we not do something about the one who cost us the hunt?" Metagross asked in a clanging voice.
Weavile grinned. "I think I'm going to enjoy dealing with that nosy pest!" She said, flexing her claws. Scizor nodded. "Do with him what you like. You can stay and help if you want, Metagross. I'm going to try to pick up Victini's trail." With that he flew off. With a glance at Weavile, who nodded, he followed.
Weavile quickly smashed the ice off of Caterpie's head, cruelly allowing her to toy with the helpless victim. Once she knew he was paying attention, she began to inspect her claws. "It appears I have a pest problem." She said casually. Caterpie whimpered. He had no idea what would happen to him now, but even a blind Magikarp could see that it wasn't going to be good.
"So, you interfere with our hunt and let the prey get away." Weavile clicked her tongue disapprovingly. "What do you have to say for yourself?" She asked. "P-please let me go!" Caterpie pleaded. Whatever bravery he had when he warned Victini off was gone now. Just looking at Weavile made his stomach lurch with fear, much less imagining what was going to happen to him now.
"Well, we can't let anyone know about this, can we? Well? Will you tell anyone?" Tiny bits of hope entered Caterpie's heart. "No! I promise I won't tell anyone, ever!" He said. This time, Weavile let an evil grin show. "Oh, I think you won't." Weavile agreed.
It was the last thing Caterpie ever heard.
To the south of Beua Plains, a dense forest created a giant ring. This was known as the Emerald Ring, and inside of it there were a mountain, a lake, a smaller less dense forest, and the rest was grassland. This formed the perfect place for Gardevoir High.
News almost never reached the Pokémon who inhabited the Emerald Ring. Few ventured though the forest, and even less braved the odd swirling winds above the Emerald Ring. So they had very little knowledge about the Legendaries and the Pokémon outside their ring.
All in all, Arceus thought, it was the perfect place for Victini to hide. He summoned his strength and added it to Victini's. When she Teleported away from Scizor, she went much farther then she normally could in her weakened state, thanks to Arceus. Further then Scizor would ever guess she went. And she ended up exactly where Arceus wanted her. But before he cut off all contact with her, he had to tell her something.
"Victini?" His dream self called out. Groggily, Victini answered. "Arceus? Is that you?" "Yes. Listen, they won't stop hunting you. This is for the best. If you forget yourself for a while, it will be harder for them to find you." "Forget myself? What are you talking about?" Victini asked, perplexed. "You'll see. But trust you must trust D-" Before Arceus could finish, he began to fade. "Who must I trust? Arceus? Arceus!" Victini yelled desperately.
Then her dream faded and she slowly slipped into true unconsciousness.
