Chapter One. If you've seen the Pokemon Movie Eight: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew then you'll understand the character in the story. It takes place a long time ago before Ash was even born, where knights and castles kind of things still are around. If you haven't seen the movie I recommend you watch it before reading thsi story, so you can get a feal for the characters but you don't have to. Sorry for the grammar mistakes my spell check is messed up, but not that badly. Enjoy and review!
His breathing was heavy as he raced up the stairs his foot steps forceful as his boots echoed loudly as they made contact with the stone stairs. His eyes were filled with rage and his muscles were tense as he pushed open the wooden door that greeted him at the top of the stair case. His baby blue eyes nervously scanned his surroundings as he found himself in the Eastern wing of the castle, with two halls to pick from he decided to take the quickest way. Racing down the right hallway he passed by several guards in suits of armor and several servants who weakly grinned at him, they knew he'd get to the bottom of it. He was their last hope. Reaching a pair of large wooden doors he waited no time and rammed them with his shoulder, bursting right into a large throne room. At the end of it were two elderly figures in royal attire.
"Sir Aaron!" The women gasped as the man who was dressed in gray and blue attire rushed to greet the two with a firm placement of the knee and a bow. Aaron wore blue boots with gray trousers, he had on silver knee and shin armor, he wore a dark gray long sleeved shirt with a dark blue vest on, a leather brown belt was strapped securely over his vest, his forearm and elbows were protected by armor, and he wore a black hat with a gold symbol on it. In his right hand was a staff.
"I came once I heard what happened" Aaron admitted as his eyes were plastered to the marble floor that he was kneeling on, his reflection clear within it.
The two who sat in the thrones were no other then the former King and Queen, both of them starring at the Knight weakly. The former Quenn opened her mouth to talk, but her husband stopped her. Firmly placing his hand upon her's he didn't want her to speak as he knew her heart couldn't bare the thought of what occurred anymore.
"Our daughter, she was taken last night. Her room was left in a mess and a wall had been blasted wide open. Several of the guards had spotted some figures escaping on the roof and tried to stop them, but the guards were unable to reach them in time. They said they spotted her being carried by one of the kidnappers" The Former King explained as Aaron's heart almost skipped a beat as he hear how his lovely, Queen. Rin had been taken.
"Who took her?" Aaron demanded to know angrily as the King rose up from his throne and slowly approached the Knight. With each step he took down the small set of stairs that led to his throne, Aaron cringed in anger. Every moment they wasted was a moment she was in danger.
"We don't know. We searched her quarters and were unable to find any clues. It could of been bandits, assassins, knights from another kingdom, or it could of been an inside job" The Former King explained as he gently brushed past Aaron his cap running against Aaron's hand as the elderly man stopped near the large window within the throne room. The window over looked the kingdom below the throne room, it was a large castle that over looked the local town below. "We need your help to find her."
"I'll do everything in my power to find her and get her back" Aaron growled lowly as he rose up from his feet his eyes locked upon a picture of the beautiful, Queen Rin.
"I'm glad we could depend on you, Sir Aaron" The Former King stated lowly as his hands formed a fist in anger of the idea of his daughter missing.
"Their first mistake was taking, Queen Rin" Aaron growled angrily as his muscles became tensed and his grasp upon his staff tightened greatly."Their second mistake was not killing me before they took her, because now I'm coming for all of them."
The town was busy as the local townspeople were busy with their regular routines and the local guards were busy watching out for any criminal activity, while conversing with the locals to keep a friendly presences. Aaron quickly rushed through the crowded streets his mind determined to find the kidnapped, Queen.
I swear I'll find you, Rin. Even if it takes my life.
Aaron finally reached the outskirts of town where a few farm houses were located, but they wasn't what he was interested in. What he was interested in was the small cabin located on a grassy hill located near a sparkling blue lake and a large oak tree. Aaron quickly rushed towards the large oak tree where he was greeted by a large Pidgeot.
"Pid!" Pidgeot cried out loudly at sight of his master who grinned happily to see his Pokemon, but his eyes said otherwise. His eyes were filled with worry and anger.
"Where's Lucario?" Aaron demanded to know as the large flying Pokemon signaled with his wing towards the small blue figure who sat peacefully near the lake. "Lucario!"
Lucario quickly stood up surprised to be hearing from Aaron this soon. He had just left half an hour ago and he was already back, it was odd.
"Why are you back so soon?"
"The queen has been taken" Aaron explained as he could see the shock expressions that appeared on Pidgeot and Lucario's faces.
"B-By who?" Lucario demanded to know as he stuttered at first as he couldn't imagine how someone was able to kidnap a high royal family member with all the security she had.
"No one knows. I have a few ideas about who might of done it, but I can't be to quick to point fingers" Aaron explained as he slumped down beside the tree his legs weak from the simple thought of Rin in danger and being handled by dangerous criminals.
"We can't just sit around! We have to act!" Lucario cried out angrily.
"Pid Pidg!" Pidgeot disagreed as the flying Pokemon felt that at this moment everyone was to emotionally confused to take any sort of action. Lucario shot the Pokemon an angry look.
"Lucario... Pidgeot is correct. We can't just go running around accusing people and busting down doors. We must rest today and collect clues, we also need help. Lots of help" Aaron admitted as he knew this mission was way to big for just one knight. Aaron just wanted to get Rin back, but he knew it wouldn't be that easy.
"Who are you and what do you want?" Rin cried out as the darkness of the room was frightening and the constant sound of cries or help echoed loudly causing her to shiver in fear. Slowly, emerging from the darkness of the shadows and into a small beam of sun light stood two figures. She was unable to see their faces, but she took note of the long black capes they wore around their body to hide any sort of enlightenment of where they were from.
"Your Kingdom is the most powerful one in the land and it's about time things change. Your mother and father are old and sick, you're the only true symbol of leadership left in this land. Without you this land will crumble" One of the figures laughed widely as he gently brushed his hand across her cheek making her to pull back in fear and angrily spit towards the figure. Just missing his neatly polished boots.
"You'll never get away with this" Rin muttered lowly as he mind fell upon Aaron and how the brave knight would save her.
"I don't see how we'l be caught. In a few days my forces will take your kingdom and all those brave knights you're depending on will be taken care of" The figure laughed loudly as the other figure beside him snickered lowly. "This is the end."
I hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter and stay tuned for the next one, as things begin to get heated up. Review!
