I don't own pokemon or the characters. In fact I own almost none of what this entire story will be. Sort of. You see, this is my first adopted story. This amazing tale was created by A Lights Shadow. They were going to drop it and I couldn't bare to see it go unfinished. You should check them out some time. They are Extremely talented. So here it is. I'll pretty much only be responsible for grammar corrections and the very ending when I get around to typing it. Hope you guys like it as much as I did. ;)
The room was pitch black. The darkness seemed to swallow it entirely. This was the night that changed our lives forever. Those events no one expected would happen.
Blood stained the floor. Its crimson color was a sharp contrast to the black that surrounded it. They looked slyly at all the dead bodies. A smirk appeared on their face as they looked at all the havoc they had caused. Bodies covered the floor. Fourteen of them in fact, and that's not an easy feat for one person.
They pulled a knife out of their most recent victim's back. The deep crimson blood seemed to have stained the knife completely. Of all the deaths, his had to be their favorite.
All due to the trouble he'd caused them. He had never been forgiven, even after all their deaths...
Crystal jolted awake, sitting up as she frantically looked around the room. She made sure everything was okay.
Her Xatu stared at her with its blank stare. Unmoving even as Crystal stared back. She didn't remember letting it out of its pokeball, but other than that everything was fine. She sighed in relief, before collapsing back onto her bed and stared at the blue ceiling of the room.
What was that?
She shrugged, before sitting up once more. This time to glance at her alarm clock. "9:26." She yawned slowly, before her eyes widened. "I've overslept! Hopefully there's still some time to get some of my research papers in!" She kicked the blankets off her, sending them flying to the end of the room, before jumping out of her bed.
She pulled on her clothes, a blue t-shirt over a pair of jeans, before looking in the mirror. Good enough. It really was nothing too fancy, or anything that bad for a seventeen year old to wear either.
She spun around, watching her hair swish instead of her clothes. No good. Better put it up. She put her hair up in a ponytail instead of her usual pigtails. Maybe that idiot won't know it's me.
Swinging her bag over her shoulder, she headed out the bedroom door.
Her mind raced. There was so much to do. She started talking to herself. "So if I finish up the paper on the process of evolution by stones... then I could start the paper on how pokemons breeding rates are affected by footsteps and by the one who hatches it." She sighed, knowing what that was referring to. Turns out she did need him.
Honestly, she loved her job. It was just that sometimes it could get way to overwhelming and sometimes she needed the help of a certain "idiot" to get things done.
She locked her door, before looking around the ever peaceful city. Children chased each other, laughing happily as they played. Older couples sat outside their homes, watching the children with happy smiles on their faces. Flowers littered the town. Their sweet scent was pleasant as petals flew around in the wind.
At first, Crystal didn't like the idea of moving to Cherrygrove City, but now she wouldn't change it for anything, even if she was slightly farther from her mother.
She walked away from her house, letting Archy walk along beside her as they went towards route 29. Towards the dreaded New Bark town. Dreaded to Crystal, at least.
"Hey Crystal!"
Crystal turned as she saw a girl run towards her, wearing the standard nurse outfit. "Nurse June. Whats up?"
The slightly older girl leaned over her knees, panting a bit from running. "Professor Oak passed by this morning. He wants to speak with you." She stood up. "I'm glad I caught you here. I thought I'd have to go all the way to New Bark!"
Crystal smiled slightly, "thanks June. I'll check it out."
She bid farewell to the nurse, before dialing Professor Oak on her pokegear.

"Hello?" The surprised face of the professor popped up onto her screen as he picked up. "Oh! Hello Crystal! It seems that you got June's message!"
She nodded. "Yes I have... So what did you want to speak with me about?"
"Well you see.. There's this place in Sinnoh that I want all you dexholders to check out.."
She arched an eyebrow. "Why?"
The professor scratched the back of his head nervously. "Well, there are reports that people have gone missing... and nothing seems to work.."
Crystal nodded thoughtfully. "Very well, I'll try to tell the others. Who else knows about this?"
"Blue does of course, but he doesn't care..." Oak got an embarrassed look on his face. Blue was his grandson, after all.
Crystal snapped her fingers and smiled. "Don't worry. I'll try to talk some sense into him. Thanks professor."
"I should be thanking you! Farewell Crystal!"
"Bye!"
