This story's whole point is to help me improve my skills. Yes, I will try my best to make it appear good. I will try my best to keep the characters in character. I will try my best to update often and take your reviews to heart. Without further ado, I shall get on with In our Free Time.

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon.


It all started with a letter.

A special letter some of our council had received from Arceus. It red out the following message.

"Dear fellow councilman,

If you have received this letter, that means I have selected you along with a few others of the legendary council to meet on New Moon Island, much to Darkrai's dismay as it seems. This meeting, which has been called forth for a very special reason, will span to about two weeks. Our daily needs will be supplied just in case it should last much longer.

This meeting is mandatory. Those who do not attend will face punishment courtesy of myself.

Cheers,
Arceus."

And now, here I am flying towards the Sinnoh Region. I was actually surprised that I had received this letter since I'm not the best member of the council. I'm actually not as wise as you would expect me to be, despite the psychic-type stereotypes. I could be irrational, idiotic, naive, idiotic, and did I mention idiotic?

That being said, I didn't communicate very well with others in the council members. The only ones I considered to be my friends are Celebi, Jirachi, and the lake trio, even though they somewhat see me as a bother. Though maybe...somewhat isn't the word.

Other council members I didn't get along with as well for example would be Suicune, Darkrai, Cresselia mostly though. She was the exact opposite of me. Wise, and widely respected throughout the whole council. Even our all-powerful god Arceus would tip her hat to Cresselia. Sometimes I wonder if Arceus would want her to take control when she passes instead of me.

Who am I though? Who is this mystery narrator you've been following, if anyone even still is. Well if you haven't figured it out yet, you shall soon since I've arrived in Canalave City.

I looked around the city before proceeding to put my magi-lock on. A magi-lock allows us legendary pokemon to go anywhere without being detected by mortal eyes. It can only be sensed by those who can sense our aura. It also allows us to transform into humans, but I won't get into that.

Anyway, looking around the city I checked a nearby tree to see where the wind was coming from. There was a slight breeze, and I was hoping it lead north of here. I had never actually been to Darkrai's island. I was only told that it was supposed to be north of the current city. So now I guess it's time for some problem solving. Suicune is very fast, as she is known as the North Wind. She sometimes will leave a breeze from where she's been leading to where ever she is going. If it leads north, then I must follow the wind.

For the record, this is basically the smartest thing I've thought of for centuries.

Without further ado, I followed the wind. And sure enough, it did lead north. It only took a few minutes but after proceeding in the direction I noticed a wolf-like creature. I quickly identified it as Suicune and proceeded to follow her. Of course, it didn't take her long to notice my presence. She huffed and decided to run a little faster. Faster than I could actually keep up with to be exact.

Sigh, I told you that I couldn't get along with her. She saw me as the biggest idiot in the council, even though I'm really quite typical when it comes to our idiots here. You'll see soon enough.

After what seemed like forever to me, I noticed an island in the distance. I knew for a fact that it was New Moon Island because there were dark clouds swirling around and an ominous, malicious aura was being given off. Ugh, typical Darkrai. Way to pick the most depressing island to live on. I know he doesn't like any of us, especially Cresselia, but I would think he would pick at least a place that looks a little less malicious.

...

I landed safely on the island, where I was greeted by a face I didn't feel like seeing right now. Arceus glanced over to me, then looked away. "You're late, Mew." She said flatly.

"I apologize m'lady." I stuttered, not truly knowing I was late. She didn't bother replying. She only walked away and further into the island's forest. I let out a small sigh and followed her.


I'm actually...kind of proud with how this turned out. It took me about a hour to write due to the writer's block I had to work through. Anyway, please review and I'll try to have the next chapter up by Thanksgiving Day.
