Chapter two: The Gracidea Flower

(Five years later...)

-Darkrai's Base-

Altaria sat down across from Gardevoir – Darkrai's psychic commander – and sighed. Gardevoir looked up at Altaria.

"Is something wrong, Altaria?" She asked with a raised eyebrow. "You're not yourself."

Altaria glanced back at Gardevoir. "No honey. It's nothing." She replied.

Gardevoir's eyes narrowed. "Is it because of the five year anniversary since the massacre of Sora Village? Sorry to say this, Altaria but you have got to get over it. After all... Five years is a long time if you think about it." Gardevoir said as she poured a cup of tea.

"Honey, look, I might be a tiny bit upset about Swellow, but that village can go to Hell for all I care!" Altaria shot back.

"Altaria, calm down. I was just saying is all. If you keep on thinking about Swellow, then it will just distract you from what you need to do." Gardevoir explained.

"Is it so wrong that I was able to grow fond of that guy? He was the only one who I felt comfortable talking to." Altaria wondered.

Gardevoir sighed and took a sip out of her cup. "I know what you're going through. After all... I knew this person in my old home that I was good friends with, you know, before I joined Darkrai." She said.

Altaria looked up at the ceiling. "This whole thing is just so strange... But I guess I do owe Lord Darkrai my life."

"Hey ladies!" Cleffable greeted as she walked into the room with a small smile.

"Hey. So you got back already?" Gardevoir replied with a raised eyebrow. Cleffable nodded.

"Yeah. When we got to our destination, it was already abandoned." She replied, sounding a little disappointed.

"Cleffable darling, is there something that I'm missing out on?" Altaria asked questionably.

Cleffable turned to her. "Oh that's right. You were out on a mission last week when the meeting was on. Apparently, there is a group of people trying to rebel against Lord Darkrai." She answered.

Altaria raised an eyebrow. "You're telling me that there are people stupid enough to rebel against Lord Darkrai?" She asked. "Honey, you must be mistaking."

Cleffable shook her head. "No. I'm not. We have already found some of the group and they are in the dungeon. We are trying to torture the information out of them, but so far they aren't telling us anything. I think we are going to destroy them if they don't give up soon." She replied.

"Oh? I was wondering why the dungeon cells have been getting a little cramped lately." Altaria said out of the blue.

"So, they have been moving from place to place so then they can't get caught... Clever..."Gardevoir said and took a sip out of her cup.

"Ever since the last couple of people we caught they are being more cautious than ever. It's getting harder and harder to find them." Cleffable sighed. "All of this work is making me tired, but I guess I would be more reliable than Glalie or Emboar."

Gardevoir and Altaria nodded in agreement. "That's true." They said in unison.

"It's a shame that none of Darkrai's men that are second in command are ice types. Honestly, I think that anyone of them would be better than Glalie." Gardevoir commented. "He is always screwing things up."

"But you have to admit Gardevoir darling that Glalie is stronger than all of them. Speed is just not his area. Not to mention that he is constantly lost. It's a miracle that he can actually find his way back here, let alone find his own room." Altaria said.

"Emboar always wants to smash stuff. He is a psychopath. He once thought that I was a piñata." Cleffable said as she folded her arms with a pout.

"Yep. It's really a shame that Lord Darkrai chose two guys who don't even know what they're doing." Altaria said as she shook her head.

"I'm sure that Lord Darkrai has his reasons and we can't question those reasons." Gardevoir replied. "We just have to suck it up and respect his decisions."

"Let's just hope that we can collect all of the gems. I heard a rumour that there are some others around who might be strong enough to wield their power." Cleffable said.

"I've heard that too."Gardevoir said. "This could mean trouble."

"I'm pretty sure that we can handle them with no problem." Altaria replied. "After all, they haven't gone through Lord Darkrai's training like we have. Have they?"

Gardevoir and Cleffable nodded.

"Good. Then there is no worry." Altaria said, pleased.

-Shaymin the Sky Warrior-

Shaymin let out a small yawn as she looked outside the cave.

"Is it morning already?" She asked herself as she stood back up and stretched. She smiled to herself and looked around. "Togekiss must be somewhere else..." She said to herself and raised an eyebrow.

She walked out of the cave, letting the early morning sun rays hit her face as the cool breeze flew across in front of her.

Shaymin grabbed a small plastic bag and began to walk out to the forest.

'I wonder where Togekiss is at...' Shaymin wondered to herself. 'She is never this late.' She giggled to herself. 'Maybe she's found herself a new man...'

She wondered through the forest as the Pidove and Emolga flew by and chirped and waved to her. Shaymin nodded to show a hello and continued to walk through the forest.

Shaymin looked up at the top of one of the trees and saw one apple left on it. She placed the bag that she was carrying around onto the ground and began to climb up the tree.

She grabbed the apple with her mouth and proceeded to climb her way down the tree. One of the Emolga glared at her and glided over to her.

"Shaymin, do you mind sharing that apple?" She asked with adoring eyes.

Shaymin made it to the ground and placed the apple at her feet. She looked back at Emolga with a sad face.

"Sorry, but my family comes first. I have to make sure that Togekiss gets some food too. Besides, the last time I shared with you, you took the whole apple and never gave it back to me." She answered.

"But you're not even related to Togekiss..." Emolga replied, angrily.

Shaymin smiled. "Not by blood. But we treat each other like family."

Emolga huffed. "You know that those Zangoose will just try to take it away like they always do."

"But they have only caught me once. I have been disguising myself as a bush the whole time and they don't seem to notice that it's me." Shaymin replied as she tilted her head to the side.

"You know that I am only looking out for you. After all, those Zangoose aren't afraid to hurt a girl." Emolga said.

"I know. But really, I'm fine. Nothing bad is going to happen. I can look after myself..."

Emolga sighed. "I guess so. But if those Zangoose get you, I can't risk my life to save yours. It's every Pokémon for themself."

Shaymin nodded. "Yeah. I know that. I'll be careful." She promised and began to walk away with the apple in her bag.

"I still want that apple though..." Emolga sighed.

Shaymin turned around. "Sorry, it's every Pokémon for themself." She apologize and turned back again, walking back home.

On her way, she heard a rustling in the bushes. She turned to face them, but they stopped moving. She shrugged and continued walking until she heard more rustling.

'This is starting to creep me out...' She thought to herself as she looked around some more.

"Who's there?" She asked shakily.

"We thought that it was obvious." Someone's voice replied.

"You were just talking about us earlier, weren't you?" Another added.

"You should know by now." The final one finished.

Shaymin gulped. She knew those voices and that way of talking. The Zangoose had followed her. If she had searched through the bushes like she normally did instead of climbing up the tree then she would've been safe. But recently that has been hard. Even to find a full Oran Berry was difficult. So she had no choice but to do what she did...

The Zangoose jumped high out of the bushes and surrounded her with their claws raised.

"There's the easy way-" One began.

"Or there's our way." Another added.

"Look, can't we just please work this out?" Shaymin asked with shakiness in her voice.

"We gave you two options. Pick one!" The leader Zangoose replied.

"I'm sorry... But Togekiss and I struggle to find food now... We need this to survive. I'm sorry that I can't give it to you but..." She trailed off and looked down at her feet.

"So, that's your answer?" The left Zangoose asked.

"You chose option two?" The one on the right asked.

"Well, to be honest, I do like that better. It certainly is more entertaining." The leader finished up as he cracked his knuckles.

Shaymin gulped as she took a step back. She had never been able to beat the Zangoose before, so what would change now? She looked around her surroundings to search for an escape route. Nothing.

'This is not good...' She thought as the Zangoose all stepped towards her.

-Shaymin the Sky Warrior-

"What happened to you?"

Shaymin sighed. She had waited back at the cave for Togekiss after she had been brutally beaten by the Zangoose. But, all she thought about was that she wasn't able to bring back any food for the two of them.

"It's nothing..." She replied softly.

"Was it those Zangoose again?" Togekiss asked sternly.

Shaymin didn't reply as her eyes adverted to the ground beneath her feet.

Togekiss sighed. "When are you going to stand up for yourself, Shaymin?" She asked, making the small grass Pokémon glance back up to meet her eyes. "I won't be here forever, you know... Someday, life will take its' course and you'll have to look after yourself – that includes fighting!"

"But, you know that I don't like violence, Togekiss!" Shaymin replied.

"Then why do you insist that taking the beating for it will make it all better?" Togekiss asked. "They won't stop if you just let them walk all over you..."

"Well, what am I supposed to do? Even if I did try to fight back, it wouldn't do any good if I'm not strong enough..." Shaymin asked.

Togekiss stared at Shaymin for a moment before finally answering her question. "There is a way that can work especially for you..."

Shaymin blinked. "Eh? What are you talking about?"

Togekiss shook her head. "...It wouldn't do any good if you can't find it... In fact, no one knows where this item is..."

"Come on, tell me!" Shaymin pleaded with her tempting eyes.

"Mm... Okay, if you are sure..." Togekiss shrugged. "Well, legend has it that a special flower can be found somewhere in this land. It's called the Gracidea Flower and it can help only a Shaymin. You see, apparently it can help by transforming the Shaymin and they'll gain new abilities..."

"New abilities? Like what?" Shaymin asked, now interested.

"Well, there are two forms as far as I'm aware... There's the Land Form – the state you're currently in – and the Sky Form – the form that you can only transform into by using the Gracidea Flower's power. Whilst in Sky Form, the Shaymin will have the ability to fly and do other amazing things... However, with it being so rare... Not much else is known about it..."

"That sounds awesome!"

Togekiss took in a deep breath, soon letting it back out. "But there's more,"

'There's more?' Shaymin thought. 'This just keeps on getting better by the second!'

"The legend also states with it being so rare, the Shaymin who does manage to find it will then be titled as the one who will save the land from the darkness... They will be known as the Sky Warrior...!" Togekiss finished up.

Shaymin stared at Togekiss, her eyes widened. "Erm Togekiss," She began. "Are you sure you're feeling okay?"

Togekiss groaned. "Shaymin, what I'm saying is that it could be you. You never know!"

Shaymin then went into a fit of laughter. "W-WOW! THAT HAS TO BE T-THE FUNNIEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD!" She stated in between laughs. She held her stomach once she finished laughing. "Ugh... Now my stomach hurts..."

She then curled up, her eyes falling down. "But in all seriousness, Togekiss, that's not me..." She stated and soon, she fell asleep.

Togekiss sighed, staring at the Pokémon she considered a daughter. 'Shaymin... If only you wouldn't underestimate yourself like that... You are more than what you think that you are...'

-Shaymin the Sky Warrior-

"I'm going out, Togekiss!" Shaymin called out as she began to walk towards the forest.

"Just be careful, Shaymin. Remember what I said about sticking up for yourself..." Togekiss reminded the young Pokémon with a small, sad smile. "If they try to hurt you just fight back."

'Easier said than done... I don't have the Gracidea Flower, you know!' Shaymin felt like saying.

"I know..." She replied instead.

"Good girl... Don't be gone for too much longer... You know that if you don't find any food, just come back..." Togekiss advised.

"I know that, Togekiss... I've been doing this for only a couple of years now." Shaymin replied and began to walk towards the forest again. "Bye!"

"What am I going to do with that girl?" Togekiss mumbled to herself as she began to do some chores of her own.

-With Shaymin-

Shaymin began to look around for any sign of food quickly – no such luck, of course... But she was really interested in at least trying to find that flower that Togekiss told her about. Sure, she didn't think that she would be capable of things... But she thought that it was worth a try, anyway.

So she went searching, until a sudden thought hit her.

"I don't have a clue what the flower looks like..." She groaned. "Why didn't I ask Togekiss about it...?"

'Maybe she would get a little suspicious about it... Or maybe she wouldn't know...' She thought to herself, nodding in agreement with those perfectly logical reasons.

"What are you doing now, Shaymin?" Emolga asked from up in a tree.

"Oh... Um... Looking for something..." She replied.

'Yeah... That was really convincing...' She thought sarcastically to herself.

Emolga narrowed her eyes. 'She's up to something...'

"What's this thing you're looking for?" She asked.

"Um... A thing... That's important?" Shaymin replied.

Emolga was now both interested and annoyed. 'What could be so important? Eh! Who cares! If it's treasure, I'll surely be able to get money off of it!'

She glided over to Shaymin, landing right in front of her. "Well, did you ever think that I'll be able to help?" She asked with her hands on her hips.

"Well, it's just that..."

"AH HA! You think that I'll get in the way and be a burden to you, don't you?"

"No! It's not like that at all! I just-"

"I knew it!"

Shaymin sighed. "Fine... You can help me... But, this is really important to me, so promise me you won't do anything to it, okay?"

"You have my word!" Emolga replied.

"Let's go then...!" Shaymin groaned as she and Emolga began to walk further into the forest.

"So what exactly are we looking for?" Emolga asked as she began to glide through the air.

"...A flower..." Shaymin slowly replied.

Emolga almost lost her balance at hearing that reply. "What? A flower?" She asked in annoyance.

"Well, you wanted to come... But you don't have to help me look for it if you don't want to. I won't force you." Shaymin replied.

Emolga groaned. 'That would be a good idea, but I would like to know what's so great about this flower... I'll stay with her and take it once she tells me what is going on!' She snickered.

Shaymin raised an eyebrow at the electric Pokémon. 'She can be odd sometimes... I'll keep an eye on her...'

"Well, what's the flower look like...?" Emolga asked.

'She asks a lot of questions...' Shaymin thought, soon mumbling something softly.

"Eh? You're going to have to speak up a bit..." Emolga said.

"I said that I'm not sure..." Shaymin answered.

'Is this really who I'm hanging out with today?' Emolga asked herself.

"All I know is that it is rare and it should be different from all of the other flowers." Shaymin continued.

"Geez... That's helpful..." Emolga groaned sarcastically.

"Hey, I was only told about this yesterday... Give me a break..." Shaymin replied.

"Oh? If you were told about this flower by Togekiss, then it must be important." Emolga commented.

"I never said it was Togekiss who told me."

"You never said it wasn't. And besides, who else would it be?"

Shaymin remained quiet. Emolga smirked.

"As I thought." She said with a small nod of victory.

They walked in silence for a while until Emolga tapped Shaymin on her shoulder. "Hey, there's a flower field over there if you want to check it out." She stated.

Shaymin gave it a thought. "Well, I guess that it could be hiding in plain sight..." She replied. "Okay, let's give it a whirl."

The two then began to search through the flowers, but with no luck. Emolga gritted her teeth.

'What am I even doing looking for this stupid thing? It's not guaranteed that it will help me or make me money...' She thought.

Shaymin sighed. "It must not be in here..." She said, facing Emolga. "We should probably search somewhere else..."

"You're a handful, you know that, right?" Emolga asked, obviously annoyed.

"Once again, you said that you wanted to help. I had no say in the matter..." Shaymin reminded.

"I have no idea what you are talking about..." Emolga replied. Her ears suddenly twitched, picking up the sound of rustling in the bushes. Her eyes narrowed. "Eway eednay otay etgay outway ofway erehay, ownay!"

"Eh?" Shaymin asked in confusion.

Emolga groaned. "Eway eednay otay etgay outway ofway erehay, ownay!"

'What kind of language is that...?' Shaymin thought.

'What kind of Pokémon doesn't understand Pig Latin?' Emolga thought as she shook her head and glided over to Shaymin. "Ah screw it! We need to get out of here now!"

Shaymin thought of what Emolga said before. Then she finally got it. "Ywhay idn'tday ouyay elltay emay eway ereway eakingspay Igpay Atinlay?" (Why didn't you tell me we were speaking Pig Latin?) She asked as she and Emolga began to run – and glide.

Emolga shook her head. "Ouyay avehay otay ebay ethay iggestbay idiotway inway ethay orldway!" (You have to be the biggest idiot in the world!) She yelled.

"Onay eednay otay ebay uderay!" (No need to be rude!) Shaymin replied. "What are we even running from?"

"The Zangoose! Who else?" Emolga answered.

"Well, we better pick up the pace!"

"That's what I've been trying to tell you!"

"Let's... Not point fingers here..."

"Of course!"

The two continued to flee as fast as they could, but that was all in vain when the Zangoose had caught up and surrounded them.

"And... Where do you two think you're going...?" The leader Zangoose asked with his arms folded in front of his chest.

"What do we do now...?" Shaymin whispered to Emolga.

"You're the reason we're in this mess in the first place...!" Emolga hissed.

"Look, I'm sorry! But it's important!" Shaymin apologized.

"Well, saying sorry isn't going to get us out of this..." Emolga commented.

"Just hand over any food or valuables that you have and you can leave without getting hurt..." The leader told the two.

Emolga sighed. "Well, we're not going to get out any other way..." She stated.

"When are you going to stand up for yourself, Shaymin?"

"I won't be here forever, you know... Someday, life will take its' course and you'll have to look after yourself – that includes fighting!"

"No! Don't give them anything, Emolga!" Shaymin told her.

"What? Has this flower of yours really gone to your head this much?" Emolga asked in shock.

"No... The flower has nothing to do with this..." Shaymin replied. "Togekiss told me that it's better to stand up for yourself than to take the beating or give them what they want. So, that's what we're going to do!"

"I'll give you one more chance!" Zangoose yelled. "Either you give us all that you have or suffer the consequences!"

"Come on, Emolga... Let's just try..." Shaymin said.

Emolga stared at her for a moment and sighed. "There is just no arguing with you, is there? Let's do it then..."

Shaymin smiled. "Alright, let's do this then!"

The three Zangoose raised an eyebrow each at Shaymin as she charged right towards one of the lackeys.

"Magical Leaf!" She called out as she hit one of the Zangoose hard with the leaves, knocking him unconscious.

"What the hell?" Zangoose asked in confusion.

Emolga smirked. "You're not as weak as I thought..." She told Shaymin.

Shaymin laughed nervously. "Uh... I'll take that as a compliment..."

"Electro Ball!" Emolga yelled out and formed a ball of electricity in her palms, soon sending it off and attacking the Zangoose that was standing next to his boss, electrifying him and sending him flying into a tree.

The Leader glanced at his two unconscious comrades and growled at the two girls. "You're going to pay for that!"

"Huh. I thought they were tough, but that was easy..." Emolga stated.

"Yeah... It's... Kind of embarrassing..." Shaymin added. "Why were we scared of them, again...?"

"Don't ask me!" Emolga replied.

"HEY! STOP TALKING ABOUT ME LIKE I'M NOT HERE!" Zangoose yelled in anger.

"Oh... Right... We should probably deal with this guy..." Emolga said with a small sigh.

"You might've taken out the other two... But there is a reason why I'm the boss..." Zangoose began. He smirked as he noticed the cliff. "Fury cutter!" He yelled as he launched his multiple attacks at Shaymin, hitting her back closer and closer to the cliff.

"Shaymin! Look out!" Emolga called out as she quickly glided over to Zangoose and Shaymin, only to be hit by Zangoose's attack and sent flying back.

"Say goodbye!" Zangoose yelled and hit Shaymin with a final swipe, sending her off the cliff, screaming as she was falling closer and closer to the ground.

Luckily, she managed to quickly grab onto a ledge, though beginning to get sweaty palms.

"Okay... How am I going to get out of this situation...?" She asked herself and then soon noticed a single pink flower growing from the side. She tilted her head in slight confusion.

"Maybe... It's not likely, but... It's worth a try..." She then carefully tried to reach out for the flower, although the ledge was beginning to crumble. Nonetheless, she managed to touch the flower's petals. Nothing happened.

She sighed. "Well, it was worth a shot, I guess..." She mumbled. "Now what am I supposed to do?" She wondered.

There was soon a bright glow coming from the flower, catching Shaymin off guard, causing her to lose her grip of the ledge, then falling towards the ground. But then, she also began to glow, her body was drastically changing. Her small form was growing, her legs longer as well as her body and head. Her innocent eyes changed into intense eyes. And the most noticeable change was that she could float in the air!

"Whoa!" She gasped with a smile. "This is awesome! I actually found the Gracidea Flower! YES!" She shouted with joy, but began to lose her balance, luckily she quickly caught herself. "Okay... Looks like I'll need to get used to this..."

She quickly flew up to the top and landed on the cliff. "Hey! Zangoose!" She called out to Zangoose who was getting ready to leave, but he turned around at hearing Shaymin's voice. His eyes widened.

"What the hell?" He asked in shock.

"You want a fight? I'll give you a fight!" Shaymin called. "Leech Seed!"

Seeds were shot at Zangoose and zapped him of some of his energy until he quickly broke them off with his claws and jumped into the air.

'What happened?' Zangoose asked himself. 'What suddenly changed her? Is it because of...?'

Shaymin quickly flew up behind Zangoose and kicked him into a tree. She then continued to hit him by using her Magical Leaf.

Once she was done, Zangoose stood up and stared at Shaymin in shock. "How much has she improved in these last five minutes?" He asked. "This is bad..."

Shaymin began to walk over to Zangoose and stared him right in the eye for a few moments in silence. She sighed.

"You might want to take your comrades and get out of here... And don't try anything like this again..." She told him.

Zangoose blinked. 'Eh? What's she trying...?' He wondered as he cautiously grabbed his gang and got out of there, Shaymin watching his every move.

Shaymin walked over to Emolga, who was rubbing the back of her sore head. "You okay?" She asked in concern.

"Ugh... Yeah..." Emolga replied as she stared at Shaymin. "What happened to you?"

"It's kind of a long story..." Shaymin replied.

"...Why did you let Zangoose and his gang go?" Emolga asked.

Shaymin blinked. "What do you mean?"

"He was going to kill you! And you let him go like that! What's that all about?" Emolga asked.

Shaymin shrugged. "Hey, I might've fought him harshly, but I would never kill him... If you think about it, the whole ordeal that happened five years ago has made things hard for all of us. He just wants to survive like the rest of us do..."

"You're a strange one, Shaymin..." Emolga stated as she shook her head.

Shaymin giggled. "You think so...?"

"I know so..."

"Shaymin!" Someone called out from the air. Shaymin and Emolga glanced up and noticed that Togekiss was the one calling out.

"I'm down here, Togekiss!" Shaymin called back.

Togekiss heard Shaymin and landed down where she was. She stared at Shaymin's new form.

"S-Shaymin... Did you...?" Togekiss began.

Shaymin nodded, knowing what Togekiss was about to say. "Yeah... I found the Gracidea Flower..." She answered.

Togekiss blinked and began to laugh. "So this is what you were doing! You were searching for the Gracidea Flower!"

"Yeah..."

"Well, do you still have it...?"

"Um... AH! It's still on the ledge."

"I'll go get it." Emolga offered as she glided off to where Shaymin fell.

"What's that all about?" Shaymin asked.

"I think Emolga's changed a bit since meeting you..." Togekiss replied as Emolga came back with the pink flower.

"Here it is." She said. Togekiss inspected it closely.

"Yes... This is definitely the Gracidea Flower..." Togekiss mumbled.

"Wait! You knew?" Shaymin asked.

"Of course! You never asked what it looked like. I thought you didn't want to know." Togekiss answered.

"But, now that you have found the Gracidea Flower, Shaymin..." Togekiss began. "There's something important that needs to be done – it's up to you if you want to do it though."

"What is it, Togekiss?" Shaymin asked.

Togekiss sighed. "Well, you know how I was telling you that story earlier...?"

"Yeah..." Shaymin slowly replied. 'What's she getting at?'

"Well, I also might've mentioned that you will have to save the world from Darkrai's rein..." Togekiss replied nervously.

"Yeah, I know." Shaymin said casually. "I'm going to do it."

"EH?" Emolga gasped.

"Are you sure, Shaymin?" Togekiss asked.

"Yeah... How hard can it be?" Shaymin replied. 'Wait! What am I saying?'

Togekiss noticed Shaymin's nervousness and chuckled. "Don't worry, Shaymin... The prophecy states that you will have help..."

"Let me guess... This is going to be a long story... I think I might have to sit down for this..." Shaymin said as she sat down.

"Well, apparently about one hundred years ago or so, a dark force did the same thing that Darkrai is doing now... One of your ancestors, Shaymin, went around the world and gathered nine other warriors that were also destined to save the world. Together, combined with special stones, they managed to defeat the darkness and keep the world at peace... Eventually they hid the stones away in ten secret places so then if the world were ever to be in danger again, they could use them as a trump card. Surely, you know where I'm going with this..." Togekiss explained.

Shaymin and Emolga just stared at Togekiss in confusion. "Um..."

Togekiss sighed. "Just find nine other warriors and the stones..." She rephrased.

"OH!" The two replied.

"But where can I find the other warriors? I can't just pick some random people..." Shaymin asked.

Togekiss handed Shaymin a white stone. "Here... It'll react if one of the warriors are close by..."

"Interesting..." Shaymin mumbled.

Togekiss smiled. "I suggest when you feel like leaving to go to The Forest of Tranquillity. Ask to see Sceptile and that I sent you. He'll know what to do from there."

"Well, I better go then. Thanks Togekiss!" Shaymin replied.

"Wait! You're going now?" Emolga asked.

"Yeah! This is the sake of the world we're talking about here. I can't wait around." Shaymin replied as she grabbed the Gracidea Flower and transformed back into her normal state.

Togekiss sighed. "I'm going to miss you, Shaymin. Come back soon, okay?"

Shaymin smiled sadly. "I'll remember to do that..." She turned and prepared to leave. "Bye, Togekiss, Emolga..." And with that, she left to find The Forest of Tranquillity.

'I hope that I'll be able to do this...'

Author's Notes:

Hey guys! This chapter took forever, but it's up at last! Sorry if it's horrible with some of the description. Pokémon is hard... I hope to get this up on my YT channel soon as well. Not sure how long it'll take though...

Review! Constructive Criticism is also appreciated if you have complaints about something. I need to improve with this kind of story... I also wasn't sure about some of this, but this is the best I could come up with... So reviews are welcome!
