17 Plates and 7 Geos
Chapter 1
Yes! Finally got the story upload system to work! This is my first story so no flames please, although constructive criticism is welcomed and encouraged.
"Cyrus, if you value your life stop NOW."
The wind on the Spear Pillar howled mercilessly, threatening to blow Triki and I off with every gust. It was sunset on the top of Sinnoh, and the dying sun illuminated with a bloody light three figures. Triki, (my Sceptile partner) and I, as well as a middle aged man holding a leather case as he crouched in the middle of a pentacle made of chalk, with 17 stone plates in the spaces of the star.
"Why should I Kate? Obviously you can't stop me," Said Cyrus, as he slowly straightened up and opened the leather case to reveal an odd object: a small flute made of a blue stone, shaped with tube-like organs all over it's surface."Tell me, why should I, when with one note on this flute, I can have my dearest wish: a universe free of all evil? "Said Cyrus, his voice like an snake slithering fluidly into my eardrum. "The ends justify the means,"
Triki stiffened beside me, he could see right through this B.S. and so could I.
"Why Cyrus? You want to know why? I said incredulously. I could feel my temper rising and I knew Triki felt likewise. "The ends, in fact DON'T justify the means, they NEVER justify the means when the conscious life of this universe is the price, Cyrus so you're not blowing that damn flute!" I was pissed off now and he knew it. "If you want to summon up that legend you'll have to get through me first!" I allowed myself a smirk. "And if precedent is any guide I'll win. Just like last time. And the time before that. Kinda hard to beat a Pokemon Master isn't it?"
Okay, how is it so far? Hopefully good? If you find any grammatical problems please review and tell me and I will correct them. And for those who don't know what a pentacle is it's a device used for black magics, generally drawn with chalk in the shape of a five-pointed star and filled with symbols. In this case Cyrus has simply substituted the symbols for plates. Bye!
