Hello everyone. This is the sequel to my fic, Redemption. This will possibly be a trilogy, I'm not sure yet. But, like before, Sun X Lillie in this, plus all the male protagonists with their female counterparts, and Cheren X Bianca. Anyway, on to the first chapter.

Chapter 1: Prologue

Sun and Lillie laid, sleeping, together in Lillie's room in the Aether paradise. Lillie was having a very pleasant dream of what her and Sun's life would be like. Sun had been acting a little strange when he had come back from listening in on Gladion earlier during the party, but she didn't ask why. If something was bothering him, he would tell her. She dreamt that they would settle down in Alola, Sun remaining champion, and they would visit their friends in other regions every once in awhile.

Sun, on the other hand, was having a nightmare. He was dreaming about the battle in the Corps of Silence's compound, how everything had almost gone the worst they could have. Sun was reliving it, until it suddenly changed. He was suddenly in a laboratory that looked like it had been closed for years. A few lights were on, but he heard voices coming from a room labeled, 'Genetic Augmentations.' Sun walked forward and tried to grab the door, but his hand phased right through. He heard a voice say, "You can walk straight through it." He looked around, but saw no one. He walked through the door and gasped.

He saw two scientists messing with some tubes connected to a test subject, who seemed to be telling them what to do.

Barry, he thought angrily. He was about to step forward when he heard the voice again say, "I can only get you here. You must watch." He recognized the voice, but didn't know why. He watched the scientist adjust the tubes connected to Barry, and finally one said, "Okay, it should be ready."

Barry grinned manically and said, "Good, now turn it on." One of the scientists flicked a switch, and suddenly strange fluids were flowing through the tubes and being injected straight into Barry. He screamed in pain, and suddenly the left half of his body began to morph. It was horrify for Sun to watch, and he wanted to close his eyes, but the voice said, "This is important. Watch."

Sun kept watching and when the morphing was done, The right half of Barry still looked like him, but the left half looked like some mutant Deoxys with a glowing red eye. Barry laughed and said in a voice that matched his horrifyingly look, "Good, it works. Then I should be able to put my plan into action." The scientists laughed and said, "And we have the research we need. Thank you for being a loyal test subject."

Barry smiled and said, "It has been a pleasure. Now make sure to leave me a copy of the genetic augmentations like you promised."

The first scientist said, "Oh don't worry. We plan on still working with you. We've heard your plan, and we want to help you. AS long as you pay with more subjects and good pay."

Barry nodded and said, "I can agree to this." Then he stopped and looked towards Sun's direction. Barry then said, "I can sense you with my new abilities. Where are you?" He then seemed to zero in on Sun and lunged towards him, hellbent on ripping him apart.

The Sun woke up, panting. He sat up and shook his head. He understood it was a nightmare, that's all it could have been. But what if that really did happen? Sun thought, It wouldn't be the strangest thing in the world, getting a vision in my sleep. He stood up and walked outside, looking for some fresh air. He walked to the elevator, and took it up to the conservation area. He looked around and just watched the Pokemon play. He was trying to shake the dream from his mind when he heard a voice behind him. "Hello Sun," it said.

Sun looked up. That was the same voice from his dream. He turned around and saw Lucas' Darkrai. He knew that Darkrai was the legendary Pokemon of nightmares and the new moon. He looked up and saw no moon in the sky. He looked back at Darkrai and asked, "Why are you here?"

Darkrai said, "I'm sorry Sun, but I don't have much time before Lucas notices I'm missing. That dream you just had? That was no mere dream. I sent you there, as I had power over your dreams with the nightmares you've been having. Barry is messing with extremely dangerous experiments. He wants revenge, against you and Lillie most of all, because you were always better than him and Lillie was able to beat Arceus. He's been able to connect with some former members of the Corps of Silence, but I'm unsure of what his plan is other than revenge. He has not slept in over a week and with his new forme he might not ever need to. Now with those changes, he could, theoretically, battle using his own body instead of Pokemon. I fear for what he plans." Then Darkrai faded out then back in. "He's realized I'm missing. I must return to Sinnoh now. I will try to keep you updated on Barry." Then Darkrai got close and whispered, "Don't tell anyone. I'm trusting you Sun, like Lucas trusts you." Then Darkrai faded into a shadow.

Sun blinked and shook his head. Then he said out loud to himself, "I know I love adventures, but can I please get maybe a week of calm before the world's being destroyed again? I want to spend some nice time with Lillie."
