Prologue
Bright lights danced in the background, screams of the innocent could be heard and blood from every man, woman and child caught up in the battle was splattered on every surface possible. The once peaceful and beautiful island of Brim was at war. Brim was home to a group of people called the 'Hyrde' or the 'Guardians' as they were known worldwide. The Hyrde were a group of men and woman from the age of 18 and sometimes, very rarely, children from the age of 6 who were chosen by the most legendry pokemon, like Arceus and mew and so on, to protect those in need. There were different ranks in the Hyrde, there were:
The Aura's- they were most skilled in using Aura.
The Mizu's- They were most skilled in anything to do with water for example they could hold their breath for longer than most people and when some people would find rain hard to battle in they would find it much easier than fighting on a sunny day.
The Yuki's- They were most skilled in using snow and ice.
The Hi's- They were most skilled in using fire.
The Shidō-sha- they were the top of each group and usually ran the Hyrde.
Finally there were the Erīto- They were normally skilled in everything but were stronger at one thing than another for example one Erīto might be stronger in using Aura than another Erīto but that Erīto might be stronger in using water or fire. They would normally be at every big battle and they were normally extremely good at fighting.
However there were a group of people known as the 'Kurai' or the 'darkness' who wanted the power of the Hyrde for evil purposes. After small wars between the Kurai and the Hyrde, the Kurai finally decided to go to the next level of fighting, which was having a full war on Brim, the island where the Hyrde live and if they won it would change the course of history forever. Today was the 8th day of fighting and both sides had serious casualties and could not last much longer.

"How much longer can we last?"
"I don't know. Not much longer." The room was dark with only a few candles lighting up the room. In the middle of the room was a table, around the table sat 5 adults, three male and two female.
"Why don't we use project Saigo ni?" One of the females asked
"We can't River, it would kill us all!" A man replied
"It may be our last hope, Bryne." Another man said sadly
"Kōri's right. We could always send Kemuri, Bara, Yanagi, Sango and Yōgan away." the other female said
"I think that's a good idea, Hikari, but I think we should sent them further than away" The final man agreed, he then looked to the door "White, get the children!" A small woman with snow white hair poked her head round the door "ok Satoshi. Umm might I ask why?" Satoshi chuckled "It is time for them to do their part for the war."

Meanwhile.
"I'm BORED!"
"Yes, we know"
"Really bored!"
"Kemuri."
"Why do the adults get all the fun!"
"Shut up Kemuri!"
"I'm 7 and I'm one of the best Erīto's"
"Don't push it Kemuri. The girls are getting angry!"
"Your all 7 as well and one the best of your groups! But no we have to sit here and do nothing!"
"KEMURI!" the four children shouted at the same time, causing the other child, Kemuri, to stop what he was doing and look at them "What?"
The five children were in a small room with white walls and white flooring, in the room was 5 beds, a few toys and no windows.
"I don't get why we can't do anything." One of the girls stepped forward, she had long black hair and light brown eyes "we can't always have what we want Kemuri" Kemuri looked at her, he had black hair that was unbelievably messy and chocolate brown eyes "I know Yanagi but I can tell you Yōgan feels the same way." He finished with a grin. "Oi you leave me out of this" joked Yōgan who had blonde hair and blue eyes. The two other girls in the room looked at each other and giggled one girl had long blue hair and grey eyes and she was called Sango and the other girl had short (down to beneath her shoulders) redy- brown (mahogany) hair and brown eyes she was called Bara. Suddenly the door, that had appeared out of nowhere banged open and White came barging in. "Come on kids, follow me!" She called and walked out the room again; the kids looked at each other and followed her out the room.

1 hour later.
"Are you ready kids?" Satoshi asked
"I don't wana go!" Bara cried
"I don't wana change my name!" Sango cried hugging Bara.
"How about you, Kemuri?" River asked
"You can't split us all up and then-" he was cut off by Satoshi "You have to leave or you will die, now hold onto your stones." With one last look at each other Kemuri, Yōgan, Yanagi, Sango and Bara clutched the different coloured stones that were round their necks and in a flash of white they all disappeared. Satoshi looked at Hikari "are all the villagers off the island?" Hikari nodded her head and Satoshi picked up a small devise "Well then, Hikari, River, Bryne and Kōri it's been an honour being your friend and working with you all, I wish you all the best of luck in the next life."
"Good luck all of you!" Echoed Hikari
"Good luck guys!" Replied Bryne
"Wishing you all well in the next life!" River cried
"Same here!" Kōri cheered.
They all smiled and with one last nod Satoshi pressed the button with an almighty boom the island exploded leaving only the island left, no one had survived not even the darkness, nothing was left only the burnt remains of a once beautiful village. The war had been won but the cost was great, the Hyrde were no more.

Rising Shadows:
Visiting friends and favorite places. A long lost past that catches up. Secrets revealed and misplaced trusts. Past or future, it doesn't matter. And an old war that begins again. Tears and laughs in one day. Arguments won and friends that stay. Hope is there but love is not. A hero is made and dies that day. A disaster is to come.
