It was a cold and rainy day. Nathan walked towards the school gates. It was the end of the summer holidays and back to school today. He grunted and walked in. Suddenly, the trees rustled behind him.

"Huh?"

Nathan looked around. Nothing. Thinking it was just a bird or something; he turned back and carried on to class. But this was no ordinary bird. Behind the bushes a figure appeared. It was a giant silver and blue bird. Before it was spotted it transformed into a normal school-boy to disguise itself. It peered round the bushes at Nathan and followed him into school. It thought to itself,

"He is the one..."

Nathan had a relatively normal day at school, the boring lessons and the boring lunch break. At lunch he read his Pokemon magazine. He kept reading the part about Lugia in it. He always liked Lugia but he never knew why. He also wished he could be one, all the freedom and power he could have. But before he could ponder about this anymore, the bell went. He packed up and walked to his next lesson.
After the last two lessons, finally, it was time to go home. Nathan walked to the bus and waited in the queue. The disguised boy followed. Nathan paid his money and sat, alone, on the top deck. He wasn't very popular at his school. He sighed and waited. The boy sat down with him and said,

"Hey, why are you so upset?"

"I don't have anyone to talk to..."

The boy gave him a reassuring look.

"Well now you have..."

Nathan smiled like he hadn't really done ever before. He had made his first friend. But he didn't know why, because no-one else had liked him like this before. Anyway, his new friend talked with him for a while until he arrived at Nathan's house. Nathan walked down the stairs and the boy followed. As Nathan stepped off the bus, some of the school kids on the bottom deck shouted and teased him.

"Hey! Nerd! Wanna study these stones for your geeky science project?!"

They started to throw stones at him, hitting him several times in the back and legs. He started to run but his injured legs gave out and he fell flat on his face of the hard pavement. The boy ran out to Nathan. He stared at his wounds for a few seconds and miraculously, his wounds were healed. Nathan got up and the boy told him to sit on a bench. Nathan did so as the boy turned round and approached the bullies.

"Oh what ya gonna do? You gonna give us test questions?!"

The bullies laughed hysterically. They threw more stones at the boy, but he didn't wince or fall. He kept walking towards them as if nothing had hit him at all. He stared at the bullies for a few seconds like with Nathan but this time it was different, as almost instantly, they all held their heads in pain.

"Wait, I have a better idea, what about if I give you a migraine? Will that do?" the boy thought to himself as he watched the bullies wailing pathetically in the bus as it pulled away.

He went back to Nathan who was sitting on the bench and sat down with him.

"So, can I go to your house tonight?" asked the boy,

"Probably, I'll have to ask my parents though." replied Nathan.

"Okay, let's go..."

So, the two boys walked to Nathan house. When they arrived, Nathan went inside and the boy stayed waiting outside.

"Mum, I brought a friend round. Can he stay tonight? I haven't got any homework to do..." Nathan shouted through the house. His mother came in from the kitchen.

"Hi Nathan, how was your day today? Glad to know you've made a friend. And to answer your other question, he could today. Are you sure his parents know?"

"Yeah, his parents know..."

Nathan went back outside to the boy.

"You're allowed..."

"Sweet, I'll get my sleepover stuff..."

"Wait a minute...sleepover stuff? You're not assuming that you can have a sleepover here are yo-"

The boy interrupted,

"Don't worry, I'll find a way around that..."

The boy got his sleeping bag and essentials and went inside. He went over to Nathan's mother and stared at her. After a few seconds he stopped. He went back over to Nathan, who had just got changed upstairs and said,

"Your mum said I was allowed to sleepover..."

"Really? My mother doesn't normally do things like that..."

"Oh, well, I improvised..."

The boy chuckled to himself.

A few hours later, as they were falling to sleep, Nathan asked the boy something,

"I never asked, what's your name?"

"Lugi-"

The boy hesitated for a moment.

"I mean Luke, yes – Luke..."

"Okay, goodnight Luke..."

"Goodnight Nathan..."

And then he thought to himself...

"Goodnight Silverus... your destiny waits tomorrow..."

That night Nathan had a very strange dream. A giant blurry image appeared. It slowly came into focus. It was Lugia, the Pokemon he had always loved as his only imaginary friend before he met Luke. The Lugia basically did stunts and flew in the air, it looked like it was showing off and telling you how good it was to be Lugia. The following morning Luke awoke early. Nathan awoke soon after.

"Morning Luke..."

"Good morning Nathan." replied Luke in a somewhat serious tone.

"You alright?" queried Nathan, wondering why he was being so serious.

"Yes I'm fine. Could you tell your mother if we can go on a walk, by ourselves today?"

"Sure, no need to ask though, she always lets me..."

"Okay then, we'll set off as soon as possible..."

"Well, at least we can get some fresh air and look at the nice scenery..."

So after getting dressed and ready, they set off outside.

"So where were you planning us to go today Luke?"

"Somewhere excluded, quiet and covered, like a cave or something..."

"Sure, I know a group of cool cave formations about a mile from here. There are some tunnels from the outside that funnel in to a super awesome massive cave inside about 30m high. It's well cool..."

"Perfect, that's exactly the place I was thinking of. We'll go there..."

Luke thought again.

"We'll need that room..." and he smiled to himself.

When the boys arrived, Luke stood in the middle of the giant cave.

"Nathan, I need to talk to you about something, something very important."

"What is it?" said Nathan.

"Listen. You're probably not going to believe this but, you have to trust me. Can you do that for me?"

"Yeah I think..." said Nathan, getting slightly nervous now.

"Okay. The truth is that, I'm not just a normal boy. You're not either. This is the part where you have you have to trust me..."

"O-ur...kay..." said Nathan, now scared quite a lot...

"I...am Lugia..."

At that point Nathan almost fainted but then regained his stance again.

"B-b-b-ut, I thought y-you we- wait a minute, I can't believe you until you prove it!"

"You want proof? Fine..."

Luke started glowing brightly until it was blinding. Nathan couldn't see a thing, and before Nathan knew it, once the light and dimmed, standing there was a fully grown Lugia. Nathan toppled over but Luke made him conscious again.

"I-I wish I hadn't said that..." murmured Nathan, eyes wide open in amazement.

"So, y-you're a Lugia?"

Luke talked into Nathan's mind...

"Not a Lugia, Silverus, the Lugia..."

"Oh my g- wait a minute, d-did you just say Silverus?"

"Oh, well, that's a long story..." 'Said' Lugia,

"Tell me, I must know..."

"Well, a long time ago, about 30 years I think, you were born..."

"But, I'm 12 which means I was born 12 years ago doesn't it?" asked Nathan, now totally confused.

"No, no, no," Lugia chuckled slightly, "you started your human life then. I'm talking about your real life, your Lugian life..."

"So...I-I was born a L-L-Lugia?" said Nathan,

"Yes. You come from a great powerful family. You are the next Guardian of the Seas. You are so much more than a school nerd, Silverus, which is your true name, you are a king! I've missed you ever since I lost you in the great storm, and now, we are re-united! Anyway, I was born a few years after you from the same family. And yes, if you were going to ask, I am your brother..."

This was too much to take for Silverus. He stuttered,

"I-I'm y-your b-b-brother?"

"Yes! Think back, a long time ago, think hard! Think now; think about your real family, your real ones you love, COME ON! This is your real life! Awaken your real spirit!"

With this Silverus realized his past. He had missed so much. He cried with joy and ran and hugged Lugia.

"I love you brother!"

"Me too, Silverus!"

Silverus noticed he was glowing brightly. He stepped back. The light became blinding. All the intelligence of his previous life flowed back into him. Then, the light stopped. He was now an identical to Lugia except a couple of meters shorter.

"Thank you so much Lugia..." 'Said' Silverus.

"No, thank you..." replied Lugia.

The both rested after that together and waited for the adventures of tomorrow...
