This is my first public fanfics amd I hope you all can help me with it as well.
This was about 3 weeks I got the permission to use the idea that Liyada had allowed me to use in to an AU that I have now made my own. I will thank both her and everyone that help support the idea as well with my grammer editor(what will I do with out you Cledesol).
Now to start this story is about a 'what if' idea and will revolve with the Masked man and childern.
The updates will be slow but I'll try to make sure I make one chapter every month.
Thank you for the wait.
Blue is the female.

Some people say we have 3 mask
One for the public
One for friends and family
One for your truest of self
But we are different
One for the fear
One for pretend
And one for us
We are not allowed to have a mask of our
'true self'
So we show us
Because we are not allowed
Because we are masked
The mask stop us
It contains us
It controls us
All because of them...

"Someone has escaped!"
Panicking and running through the darkness of night, two small figures swiftly dashed within the shadows as they fled, hand in hand and away from the lights that flashed looking for them. By their side, two smaller shadows followed close behind
"Silver, are you okay?" the small brunette asked. She gazed upon the exhausted cherry red head. Turning the corner, Blue looked around while Silver grabbed his knees, trying to catch his breath for the amount of running he did. Sneasel, who stayed by his side raised his head up to his trainer in worry. Sharing the same feeling as Sneasel, she looked upon him. Blue let her determined eyes set on to the one's that hid behind the mask. "Today is our only chance to run away!" Nodding, Silver raised his head to look at his 'big sister' and tried to stop his heavy breathing through his mask but couldn't help but let a few puffs of air escape through. Thinking how to help him breathe better, Blue placed her hand on her mask, "Let's try to get these mask off before we escape," while gently reaching to place both of her hand by each side of Silvers mask.
Silver, following suit, he placed both of his small blacked gloved hands on Blue's mask, making Blue smile sweetly at Silver, even though he couldn't see her. She had though he would flinch as soon as she raised her hand near him, he truly did trust her. "Ready?" she whispered. He nodded, and they both pulled at the same time, ripping the masks from one another. But before they could look at each other, a flash of light came toward them. Simultaneously, they jumped into the bushes to avoid the flashing lights coming their way.
Sighing a breath of relief, Blue viewed her hands, which now held the mask that hid their face for many years, not allowing her to see her own and her roommate's face. "We got them off…," she said as her voice went lower, "Just as I thought….. That man's at his weak point." Looking down Blue remind herself that Silver was next to her and turn her head to the side to see him scanning her mask with curiosity. Her eyes widened as she looked at Silver, who had silver eyes that looked sharp, an italian pointed nose, and a mouth that was shaped like an 'o' as he continue to look down at his hands, and his shoulder length red hair that covered one of his eyes to complete his persona. Smiling, Blue placed her hand on the side of Silvers face, making him look up in surprise as his eyes wide to see the face of brunette. This, too, was Silver's first time looking at Blue, it was a surprise, after all he only got to glimpse at her face only once and even then he did not see all of it, because it was covered by her hair and then by the mask that he now holds. She had bangs that cover her forehead that curve inward, bright blue that shine as she looked down wide eyed, matching her smile. Silver blush from embarrassment at the sight of her face as Blue placed her hand by his, "So this is what you look like…Oh!" Stopping to remember where they are at she gazed upon Silver sternly, "We must hurry!"
Dropping her hands to reach down to her pockets in her black dress, she reached down to grab a paper that she had hidden from the Masked Man, leaving Silver to his thoughts. Silver couldn't help but think about how they were just kids that were taken to be one of the followers of one of the most feared man in all of Kanto and Johto. They were all separated into three groups, each held one girl and one boy, with a 3-age difference, just so that they can't rebel against him. But neither Blue nor Silver couldn't do much but stay in this prison that became a home to the other Masked Children that came willingly with him. They had always tried to find a way to escape from him, as they refused to become one of his elite followers.
Blue spread out the paper out to make enough room to allow Silver to see, making him stop his train of thought. "Let's check the route again," Blue said as she placed her finger, tracing the path which they plan to leave at, "Right now, we're right here." Placing the map back in her pockets she got down to her knees and start to tap the ground, "We've finally gotten out of that building... but psychic pokemon have created a barrier sourreding this place." The sound of Blue's voice was then silenced by a loud metallic thud that made them awe of how close they were to their goal. Placing her hands wide and grabbing the sides of the metal platform, Blue grinned as she picked it up, allowing dirt fly in all places, "The only way to get past it is through here!" Blue viewed upon Silver who made eye contact back in aware. Blue gazed upon it devilishly, "An underground passageway!"
Jigglypuff let out a cry of excitement as it floated down through the hole followed by Blue, then Silver and his Sneasel, making clanking noises from the metal bars of the ladder, "But that is all I know….," climbing down she can hear Silver follow suit as she opened the vent to the underground halls, "The underground route is too complex… I have no idea how to navigate it." One by one they dropped down with swift eses, blue eyes looked at each way of the route, pressing against the wall,"But...I suspect we'll have to bypass his room at some point."
But before the duo can continue their way to victory their hearts sunk in dread when they heard a voice. "There they are!" Not wasting a moment, Blue grabbed Silver's hand and began to run away from the voices as they rounded a corner, making sure he caught her demand ,"Here."
"Over there!"
"Get them!"
Not wanting to let either of them get caught again, they ran as fast as they could with Blue in the lead, guiding them away from the enemy. But fate was not on their side, as to the path they took led to a three-way path that held one of the members of the older four Masked Children, Sham. The older girl pointed at them, and sneered proudly, with a sweet sickening voice, "Gotcha."
Panicking, Blue grabbed a hold on to Silver's face out of fear of him being discovered when they are to escape from this prison. Even though Sham has now seen her face, she can't have Silver be recognize by them, when they get out. 'If we get out at all...' Shaking that thought out of her head Blue shouted desperately and lead them through a different pathway, "Don't let them see your face!"
By now, the other older Masked Childeren have finally caught up with Sham and have now released their own signature pokemon. Carl, the eldest of all of them and in the older group released his Houndour, while Sham, the second eldest and the same group as Carl, called out her Meowth. Will and Karen,who are in the second oldest group, wasted no time to also take out their own signature pokemon, Natu and Eevee.
"Meowth, scratch!"
"Houndour, ember!"
"Natu, psychic!"
"Eevee,bite!"
'No!' As swiftly as possible, Blue lead her and Silver the attacks that now blocked their path to their exit.She was afraid that even if they were to fight, they will not be able to escape with 2 against 4 battle, especially when the older children were strong then them. Unfortunately, one of the attacks manage to hit Silver on his leg making him cry out in pain from the sudden feeling. Eyes wide in horror, Blue desperately cried out his name trying her best to find a way out and saw an opportunity when they hit a fork in the path ahead. Both grinding their teeth, Silver from the pain in his right leg and Blue from the frustration and anger from the sudden input of their plan of escaping, until she saw a pipe ahead of her. Quickly, thinking of a plan, her hand used all its strength to break the pipe and wished upon Jirachi that it works. Her prayer must have been heard, because white steam poured out from it, giving the area a ghostly aura.
Coughing from the smoke, the elite followers tried to blow the smoke in order to find their target once more before they were out of sight. Sham, who knew what they are all thinking, was lucky enough to see which way the two left to. Grinning with excitement to please her master, she called out to her fellow Masked elite, "Not to worry! I saw where they went!" Proceeding to follow them, Sham ran to where the she have seen the shadows of the two, and leading the rest of the group close behind not wanting fail their master.
But they didn't get far, as to a big pink wall has blocked their path. Surprised of this outcome Karen exclaimed quite surprised,"A dead end?!" Smudged by this, Will placed both of his hands behind his neck, giving Sham a sideway glance to his left," Are you SURE you saw them head this way?" Outraged by the embarrassment of possibly getting them to waste their time on getting to their target, she proclaimed angrily at Will, but couldn't hide a little bit of panic from escaping from her voice," O-of course!" Use to Will's comments, Karen rolled her eyes in the mask and calmly stated,"Let's check the other paths,"and proceed to the opposite end of the wall. Carl follow with a smirking Will and a frustrated Sham hot on her heals, slowly letting the sound of their footsteps echo through the hallway die down.
Unknown to them, the 'pink wall' that blocked their path slowly dissipated itself to reveal it to be only Blue's Jigglypuff.Once Jigglypuff has came down to its normal size, jumped to look back at her trainer and gave a little cry to show that they are gone with a gleeful expression. Now that Blue was reassured, she sighed a bit of relief and raised her hand up to her chin to wipe of the sweat that found its way there. "Yes! We should be safe for now…," grabbing Silver's hand she turned to move on forward on the path they blocked, not wanting to miss a minute,"...because I think we are near the exit-"
Then as she let those last words fall from her lips, a shadow way in front of them, but not just any shadow, it was the Masked Man's shadow.'No, please no, I was so sure, he couldn't have…' Blue couldn't believe it, after all their hard work, their plans to see freedom, to finally escape, they were wasting their only hope.She could feel Silver, who was now frozen, shake slightly from the sight ahead of them. 'No no no, this can't be, this can't… wait… is that..?'
Blue, still holding Silver's hand, walked forward to see what was really the shadow that was covered by darkness, now was shown in light. The shadow was not of a man's doing but a clear statue of ice, carved carefully and taken care of with hard work that only delicate hand can make. The statue was of the Masked Man, but there were also carvings of them, carving of the Masked Children. Each one was wearing their mask, and carved no higher than their elbows, with arms close to the their bodys, facing all in different directions.But the most frightening sight is the Masked Man himself, long hair surround them like chains, the mask of fear resting on his face looking down with hands that seem to grab you at any moment, huver over all of them. A fearful sight indeed.
"Oh, scared me there...they're just ice sculptures," mentally sweat dropping at the unnecessary scare. Blue placed a hand on the head of the delicate Silver ice duplicate that was in front of her. "There are sculptures of us too." Blue let her eyes linger a little long and removed her hand from the ice, now looking around the room that they were now in Blue let a thought cross over her mind.
"This must be that's man's room."
Silver felt panic flood into his mind, the Masked Children were something that he can face, even if they were strong then him and Blue, but the Masked Man was someone that he hopes he will never see. Out of depression, Silver spook out, "Blue, we don't know where he's hiding. He could be nearby…" Silver expected for her to agree, to look at least panicked or even worried. Heck he even thought that she would start bolting out with him at hand, but he did not expect the next words that Blue spoke.
"Yeah, very near indeed," raising her hand to point at the curtain that were on the side of the room ,replacing a door, Blue continued with her eyes sharpening on that spot,"He's sleeping on the other side of that curtains."
"EH?!"
Silver couldn't believe it, the one person that they dreaded to see, the person they are trying to escape from, is right on the other side of a curtain! Blue sensed what Silver was so shocked about, and smiled at him with a triumph look. "But don't worry. He can't move a limb today. That man becomes weak once every few months. According to my calculations…," smiling with giddiness she let the last word fall with pride,"..that's today!"
At that moment, Silver didn't know that she was right. Every time a full moon appears, it will shine it's beams of light upon the shrine of Ilex forest. The Masked Man didn't know that there was such a thing that was able to capture that of time, leaving him injured badly many times when he tries to capture that light that shone so brightly over the shrine.
He didn't know...
Blue look from side to side with a very thoughtful look on her face,"We just can't go away like that ...hmm!" Blue had her sights on a feather, two feathers to precise. Silver wouldn't understand what would make Blue grab some random feathers, especially when they are trying to escape, but even he couldn't help but admire them.
One of them was a simmering silver so clear that it seems to made of it, making it seem to sparkle in the dark room. The other one was tipped with a bright green to pure white, and then a dark red, somehow with a special glow to it. Separately, they were beautiful, but together, they were breathtaking. Something about them makes you drawn to them, like a mystical force of some sort.
Shaking his head, Silver look up just in time to see Blue step forward to the feather still with a hold on him, making him follow in step alongside her. Laughing, she grabbed a hold of the feathers, she turns back over her shoulders with a wink and said,"We'll need mementos!" With that she turned around to the opposite side of the curtain which it rests to a reflection of the opening and made a dash towards it with a tight hold on to her 'little brother'.
She didn't know…
They both had the same though in their mind as they ran closer and closer to the light that grew with each step. The days of cold dark rooms are no longer going to grow, the times of fearing the presences of that man will be no more. The time of the light is now about to start.
They didn't know…
With their pokemon partners by their side, and with each other at hand they take a leaping step forward into that light with smiles that seem to never break. "The outside world!"
They didn't know… they didn't know that they set off to a path that will lead them to their past that they will beat. They didn't know that they set a new course in the timeline that was set in place. They will know soon that the days of true darkness not only bloomed that day, but the seed that will bloom from that flower will change fate itself.
The clock has started
Tick tock tick
