Author Note: Whoa! Thanks for all the reviews and favs! I really didn't expect to get as many as I got o_0. Sorry this took so long – I've been really busy with school and stuff… and I had a severe case of writers block. I just did not know how to write this chapter! And it's really short… sorry!

Chapter 2 – Explanations

The waves crashed around me. I was treading water in the middle of the ocean, the shore of Cinnabar Island barely visible. Two of my Pokéballs had just strangely malfunctioned. And I was staring at Kyogre –that had just talked to me!

And yet the only thing on my mind was the phrase the Legendary Pokemon had spoken. You are my Chosen human. It made no sense that I should know it, and yet… and yet it meant something, like on a subconscious level. Which consciously freaked me out.

You recognize it, Kyogre noted quietly. You recognize what you are, and so realize the power within you. I stared at her, my thoughts buzzing around my head like Beedrill.

"…power?" I muttered, thoroughly confused. I mean, sure I was a good trainer, but it was my Pokemon that had the power, not me!

The power of the sea. The power I gave you when you were but hours old. I shook my head, half to clear it, half denying it.

"But I- I don't have –" I didn't get a chance to finish. Kyogre smoothly turned and pulled up alongside of me.

Climb on my fin. Place you hand in the middle of the circle, and I will show you your power. Cautiously, I did as I was told, my shoes sliding on her smooth, sapphire skin. When I put my hand, palm down, in the middle of the red circle on her fin, a series of images flashed inside my mind.

The first was looking down at me as a baby. I was wearing a light blue onesie, my wide blue eyes staring upwards innocently. A sapphire mist hung around me, making it look almost like I was lying in water.

The second image must have been from the future or something, because it showed me in some kind of wetsuit, standing on an outcrop of rock that jutted into the ocean. My hands were raised, and the sea rose in two towers on either side of me, ready to strike.

Then, as quickly as they had come, the pictures disappeared, leaving me shocked, but a little less confused, kneeling on one of Kyogre's fins. I sat down with a bump.

"That's- that's what I could do?" I asked faintly. "And that's how you gave me some of your power?"

Yes. She seemed to sense my need for elaboration, mostly on the essential question – why. Mew and Arceus declared it so. Their reasoning was that with some of our power in a human, we would be wiser in using it and not fight amongst ourselves. I believe a recent battle between Dialga and Palkia in Alamos town strengthened their resolve that something needed to be done to stop us from fighting.

"Did it work?"

Kyogre looked at me skeptically. Do you really think polar opposites like Dialga and Palkia would give up so easily?

"Well, no," I said sheepishly. "Are they really so persistent?"

You will find out soon. Her eyes sparkled mischievously. It is time to take you to Spear Pillar.

"Spear Pillar? What?"

Hold on tight, the Legendary called. I just barely managed to cling to one of her dorsal fins before she shifted and dove straight down into the depths of the ocean.

The next chapter should be so much easier to write… so expect more soon! Especially now that it's summer break. Yay!

Also, the next chapter will have pretty much every legendary there, so should I include Mewtwo or not? It is a clone, after all…
