Legendary Oppuritunity
Chapter 2
Elsewhere, in a magical world, where Pokemon exist, there was a meeting taking place.
A meeting of Legendary Pokemon from all the regions, they had met to discuss the falling of one of their own. Latias, Latios' dear sister, who was suffering from a deadly poison, had finally succumbed and passed into the Afterlife.
The Legends had gathered to console Latios and pay their respects and show their various signs of grief. Latios was barely hanging on, he had tried numerous times to commit suicide, he had even attempted to destroy his Soul Dew, all in order to follow his sister into the Afterlife.
"It's not fair..." he said to himself. "Why couldn't we save her?"
"Calm yourself Latios. We cannot lose another legendary." Zapdos said roughly, as Cresselia took the Soul Dew away from him, so he wouldn't try to break it.
"Be gentle Zapdos, he is young after all." Suicune scolded. All the other legends agreed.
"Yes, but it will do no good if he begins to act a fool." Raikou growled, Suicune glared at her brother angrily but withheld her comments.
At this point Giratina spoke, his deep voice rumbled over them all like the deep of the Void.
"Latios, we all understand the pain that you feel by the passing of your sister, but you cannot follow her into the Void." Giratina grumbled gently.
Latios began to shed tears as he flew up to Giratina's masked face and glared deeply into his dark cold eyes.
"How can you sit there and say that?!" he demanded, sobbing. "How can you say that to me, when you of all Pokemon can take me to her or bring her back for that matter?!"
"Because she has accepted her death and come to terms with it. To bring her back to this realm of pain and suffering would be a shame and a disgrace. The dead should rest."
"So what shall we do in the mean time?" Articuno asked as she looked around. "Without another legendary, the balance is upset."
"We must find a replacement." Arceus said, finally speaking up and stepping forward.
The Dragon Trio of Sinnoh bowed their heads at his appearance as the Spirit Trio.
"Master Arcues..." rumbled Dialga.
Suicune looked doubtful. "Find a replacement?"
"Is...that even possible?" Celibi asked, just as bewildered as Suicune.
"It is." Mesprit said, "All we need is to find one with a suitable heart." she said.
She looked equally down, since she and Latias were close friends.
At the time Latios shouted.
"Replace my sister? Feh, none could do that!"
"Not her as a person, just to restore balance. There must be at least one of each of us for the world not to be impacted. From little Phione all the way to Great Arceus and Mother Mew." Cresselia reminded.
She then looked at Mesprit. "Can you find us such a person?"
"Yes." she said, closing her eyes and searching. Searching for the one person who could be the new legend. It was then that she found the one.
Using her Psychic powers, Mespirit produced an image of a girl of 13, she was dressed in her night clothes, starlight lighting her dark room. She stared longingly into the night sky.
"This is our replacement?" Rayquaza grumbled loudly. "A mere child?"
Celibi peered at the image. "Is this truly our new Latias?"
Mespirit nodded. "She believes that she and Latias are alike."
Cresselia looked into the image as well. "But Mespirit darling, to say one is akin to a Pokemon is one thing-" she started, when Azelf cut in.
"She truly believes in her will that she is like Latias. It is so strong, I can taste it." he interjected. Zapdos made a huffing noise.
" Or, a child who dares think herself a legendary."
"Enough of your impudence, Zapdos." Lugia demanded, shuffling his wings. "Mesprit, Cresselia, do you have plans to test her?"
"We do indeed, but we will need Darkrai and Latios...And where exactly is Mother Mew?"
"Here!" she shouted, everyone looked about, but no one saw her.
At first it was an issue, but then Regirock noticed something odd about Shaymin.
He pointed, being as mute as his brothers and his crafter he relied on body language.
Looking down, the others saw Shaymin, in both Sky and Land Formes.
Shaymin herself looked down at the Land Forme Shaymin in shock, before she heard another girl laugh. It was Mew, back to normal.
"Hehe, sorry! That was too irresistible!" she said, "I approve of this new girl too, fyi, but I can tell Arceus needs convincing. Still I'm sure she'll prove herself in time."
Arcues blushed ever so slightly and looked away. "You must hurry and attend to your tasks. Dialga."
"Yes Master?" asked the Temporal Pokemon in a respectful manner.
"It must be a little out of your reach, for the girl resides in a world where Pokemon are mere fiction, but you must stop time around her dwelling place for the tests to take place." Arceus commanded. "For now, Palkia, open a path for the four of them."
Wordlessly, the Spatial Pokemon did as asked and gave them a path to that girl's world.
"Now then, go forth and do your works." he said, before looking at Mew. "Please, watch over them."
"Don't worry, Momma Mew's on the job!" she winked.
And so the foursome departed, the Spatial Hole closed shortly after in a flash of pinkish purple light.
The ones who were left including Arcues, heaved a heavy sigh. Mostly for Mew's playful behaviour.
