A/N: Recently got into reading pokemon fan fictions and thought I'd try my hand at them using the free time I have while in college. Hope you all enjoy this little tidbit. Feedback is appreciated, even if it's as simple as saying that there should be more detail.

Prologue:
In an instant, she was there, sitting amongst some of the largest and oldest trees on the continent. The area looked like it hadn't been tread upon in quite some time, with most of the forest floor covered in wet leaves and dirt.
Upon taking a closer look at her surroundings and sending out a small psychic pulse, the figure looked slightly disappointed. He's late. The floating green figure seemed to sigh slightly. He just can't manage to be on time to anything, can he?
"I'm not late you know, I'm merely on time. I'd think a time traveler would also deign to show up on time instead of a few minutes early, or are you still having trouble locking in to certain points of time?"
The first figure swung around aiming a sphere of compressed ghostly energy at the newly appeared second figure. Upon seeing the small pink feline with a large grin on his face, the first figure dissipated the shadow ball before speaking in a slightly surprised tone.
"Mew. I'm so glad you actually came out here to help me with my little project."
"No problem Bibi, what are friends for?" Mew kept a smile on his face as he was looking slightly bemused at his green companion.
I suppose you are one of the few pokemon I can truly call a friend. Bibi inwardly sighed to himself, though smiled to Mew regardless.
"It also helps that your one of the few celebi I don't absolutely loathe." Mew chuckled to himself. "Now what is this business you asked me out here for. I was busy amusing myself in Evol Temple." Mew looked to Bibi curiously now.
"Well, you know how Dialga was worried about certain catalysts leading to scenarios in time that could lead to doom or salvation?" Mew nodded motioning for Celebi to keep going with his paw. "It seems two catalysts are meant to meet their end a few leagues east of here. After begging Dialga, I was able to get him to grant me permission to influence the flow of time slightly."
"Uh huh. So what are these two catalysts supposed to do, save the world?" Mew began to chuckle to himself while Bibi started to become annoyed with Mew.
"Well, for your information, they could play a part in saving the world." The celebi looked off into the distance. "Well, if they're given the chance that is. Otherwise others wills have to step up to prevent the world's distraction."
"Hmm, and Dialga felt it would be prudent to give you such an important task for your first time meddling with the time stream? I'd think he would have gotten an experience celebi, no offense to you of course, to do this job if it was so important."
Bibi puffed up slightly in annoyance before responding. "Just because I watch over Temporal Tower most of the time doesn't mean I didn't prepare for this task before asking for it. There's almost no risk here as the two catalysts rarely fail to save the world, and even when they do, there are others capable of stopping complete destruction."
"Ahh, but there's still risk, and a likelihood of things going completely wrong as well. I wouldn't have come here at one of the Trinity's request otherwise. After all, meddling with the time stream can have many unexpected consequences."
The two legendary psychics spun around to see a previously undetected blue furred, bipedal pokemon step out of the shadows.
