Chapter 1: The Crossover
(2004, February)
In a small cottage near Three Island town, there lived a small family comprised of 5 members. The youngest member was 10 years old Entaro and the other four were his parents and grandparents.
"Legend says…" Entaro's grandfather was telling him one chilly evening while his mother lit the firewood to increase the warmth of the room, "...that in the distant Tohjo Falls, there is a plate hidden within the cave."
"What kind of plate it is, grandpa?" curious Entaro asked.
"It is a golden plate with inscriptions written in ancient language from a legendary person. Rumor has it that if one can decode properly what the plate says, he/she will obtain incredible rewards."
"So, it is basically some kind of treasure?"
"You could say."
"I wonder what the rewards are. A lot of people must be competing to get their hands on it to get and decode it!"
"I don't think so," Entaro's father said, "I haven't seen a lot of people talking about it except that it is in the legends. We haven't even heard if anyone has found it yet."
"What if they did? What if we don't know because we are too far away from Tojho Falls?" Entaro retorted excitedly.
"Relax, dear," grandpa said, "It's just an old legend."
Entaro wasn't satisfied. In this heart, there was a resonance of determination that someday he will investigate about the golden plate and find out the truth. He, for some reason, believed that the legend was true indeed.
(2017, July)
As Entaro regained consciousness, he slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying on the ground and surrounded by his Pokemon who were worried about him. Entaro tried to remember anything from before fainting but failed to recall anything. And all of his Pokemon were unsure of what had happened as well. The only thing all of them were sure about was that they were in some unknown place along with lots of other people and creatures around them, including a chubby skeleton with blue outfit and a turtle with a mine attached to its back. There was also a 100 feet tall chicken with black and red feathers engaged in fighting with a trio of people, a fat dark-skinned man with a rifle as the trio's leader. All of them were in a vast open field with grass extending to the horizon.
"Are you all okay?" Entaro asked his Pokemon.
All six of his Pokemon - Charizard, Pidgeot, Butterfree, Raichu, Lapras and Snorlax - replied in affirmative. However, Charizard had his eyes locked at someone in the sky. As Entaro looked in the sky to find out who it was, he found out Mewtwo levitating with its psychic powers!
Entaro was about to return his Pokemon back in their respective Pokeball but then everyone present in the place stopped as they heard a mysterious voice speaking to them. Nobody was sure about the source of the voice; in fact, none of them were sure about what was going on at all.
"Greetings to everyone. I see you guys are quite puzzled about what is going on. Don't worry. You all are here for a reason," the voice spoke.
"All of you present here are the champions, the best of the bests in your own worlds," the voice continued, " I brought all of you here to participate in a small competition. You will be given small tasks to accomplish and those of you who'll manage to finish the task unharmed will be awarded rewards and the chance to return back to your own world. If you fail, you either die or become eliminated, remaining here forever."
"I have a bad feeling about this," a girl amidst the people, the participants that is, said.
"And for your first task," the voice continued, "You have to reach to the base of the beacon of light you can see in the south-eastern sky. The faster you reach there, the less possibility for you to get eliminated. The first event of Ceraphenine Games commences now!"
As the voice faded out, a few people were confused about what they should do. Some of them were willing to go along but others were not convinced enough.
"What do you guys say?" Entaro asked his Pokemon.
Pidgeot responded the quickest among them saying that they should go. It said that it would be able to carry Entaro much faster than everyone. The other Pokemon said that they were willing to assist him in getting victory as much as they could, for they all wanted to return home safe and sound.
A middle aged boy with light brown hair and neat and formal dress addressed the people present their, grabbing their attention.
"Who are you?" one of the participants asked.
"My name is Light Yagami," he said, "And I have a small favor to ask from all of you."
He took out some pieces of paper from his wallet and handed them to the human participants.
"May you all please write down your names and small descriptions of yourself in these pieces of papers?"
"What for?" a girl with dark hair and white robe asked, with a bit of suspicion.
"The thing is… you heard the voice, right?" Light started to explain, "You people are all extraordinary in your own ways whereas I am a normal human with no special powers. I don't know what might happen next but I am pretty sure I will be the first ones to get eliminated. I just want to remember the names of such champions with whom I had the honour of being able to participate in any game."
"Fools. They don't know that these are the pages of Death Note. The moment they write their names, they would all die and eliminate themselves!" Light thought in his mind.
"You know," Entaro said, "I liked the idea. But…"
"But what?" Light asked.
"I don't have a pen or anything with me."
"Me neither"
"Same here"
"I just arrived here fighting chickens! How can I have anything to write with!"
Soon there were chattering noises like these all around. Hearing this, Light was a bit dissatisfied.
"Don't worry," he said, "I have a pen…"
Before Light could bring out a pen for them to write with, an eerie bluish light appeared around the papers and they all got destroyed. To everyone's surprise, Light Yagami began to float in the air. But it seemed like he wasn't doing it on his own since he was screaming in unnerving state. Soon, Mewtwo appeared before him.
Mewtwo used its psychic power to bring out more pages of the Death Note that Light had kept hidden with him, including the one inside his watch, just like how it used psychic to float him up and prevent others from suicide.
"I am warning you," Mewtwo said, "If you dare to try any of your shenanigans like this one more time, you will face the worst death possible."
Mewtwo dropped Light from several feets up in the air and flew off towards the beacon. The girl in the robe walked up to the injured Light.
"You were trying to pull off some dirty tricks on us, weren't you?" she said, "I could feel. You better not try to mess with us dirtily ever again."
She stretched her arm towards him and white light began to glow from her palm. She used her magic powers to cripple Light's limbs.
Most of the participants had already left for the beacon.
"Hey, you are Alita, the controller of life force. Am I right?" a tall girl approached the girl in white robe and said.
"Yes. How do you know?" Alita replied.
"I heard tales about you when I was a child. My name's Arane, by the way. Wanna head to the beacon together?"
"I don't have a problem."
"I think taking the bus might be the best option for us. What do you say?"
"Sure!"
The two of them left the spot together. At that point, Entaro and his Pokemon were still in the spot, along with crippled Light, screaming in pain, and the giant chicken, dead. There was also a small plastic board lying on the ground that had "Dr. NIM" written on it. The turtle with the mine was walking slowly towards the goal but he was the only moving participant who was in Entaro's sight.
Entaro recalled all of his Pokemon in their Pokeball except for Pidgeot. He picked up the plastic board and rode Pidgeot and flew off towards the target.
