Giovanni stared, looking down at the creature.
"Eliminate all humans, you say?" Giovanni repeated. "Hm. You are very violent I see."
"I am not violent. I am Omni." The creature replied.
"Omni? Is that your name?" Giovanni questioned. The creature looked at him before answering.
"I do not have a name. Names are for humans, Pokémon, and machines. I am neither. Therefore I have no name." the creature answered blandly. "What I meant before is my characteristic."
"Omni? A characteristic?" Giovanni said, becoming even more intrigued by the creatures words every second.
"Yes." The creature said. "Omni malevolent. The only trait I posses." It smiled. Giovanni felt a drop of sweat around his neck. "You humans believe in god, if I am correct? I am the exact opposite of him. He is the creator, I am the destroyer. He is Omni benevolent, I am Omni malevolent."
"So Giovanni…How do you wish to be killed?" the creature asked in a sadistic manner. Giovanni calmly walked over to the abomination, and slapped it.
"You are smart, I give you that much credit." Giovanni began. "But you need to be taught your place." He said in a cold manner.
"First off…" he began. "I, Giovanni, control everything in this room. I am your master." The creature raised an eyebrow.
"Second… I control you." Giovanni said boldly. "If you disobey me, your life will end. Simple as that." He narrowed his face into the creatures. The experiment looked wide eyed, almost in fear, and Giovanni was satisfied that his tactic had worked.
Until the creature began laughing.
"Control?" it laughed. "What control Giovanni? I see nothing that you have manipulatance over!" it scoffed.
"Arrogant fool!" Giovanni slapped the creature again, but it just continued to laugh. "I can end your life in a second!!" the creature stopped laughing, but continued to smile.
"No… no you can't." it deduced.
"I can." Giovanni said, the creature was now getting on his nerves.
"But you won't." the creature said. "You can't."
"What does that mean?" Giovanni sneered.
"I am Omni." The creature began. "Omni malevolent. I am a single power that can bend the world to its knees. You are a human. A very greedy one at that. I can just tell… you want the world, don't you?"
"Indeed." Giovanni said, now confused slightly. The creature spoke again.
"You want my power." The creature stated. "You want my power, to bend the world to its knees. You know I can do it. So if you possessed my power, you would rule the world."
"Yes-
"But…" the creature continued. "For that reason, you cannot kill me. If you were to kill me, then you would have no chance of world domination. You would still be the same weakling that you are now."
Giovanni felt more sweat. The creature had figured it out.
Almost…
"Yes, that is all true." Giovanni admitted. "However, you forget one important factor. My scientists." Giovanni smiled. The creature frowned.
"Right now, they are deciphering you DNA, to figure out how it works. Once they have cracked it, then I will simply create more of you, only more loyal, and then I will rule the world." Giovanni grinned.
"Oh? And how is that going?" the creature had its smile back.
"…the results were satisfactory-
"LIES!" the creature blared. "When my DNA is removed from my body, it automatically disintegrates! Your scientists have found nothing!" Giovanni's eyes widened, the creature was 100 percent right.
"And what's more, now that you have blown up father, he can't tell you my secrets!" the creature continued. "The only way to get my DNA is to study me live… but with these restraints around me, they limit my powers, and my DNA was engineered so that when my powers are limited, they limit themselves as well! In other words, your experiment off me would only be as powerful as I am right now! So the only way to use me, is if you take off these restraints! But you can't do that… because I am Omni." The creature smirked.
"Normally, humans would give up at this point. But you are different…" the creature smiled.
"Shut up…" Giovanni muttered.
"You are too greedy. You keep hoping for some kind of miracle, something to help me aid you! The smart thing to do would be to kill me immediately…"
"Shut up…" Giovanni said a little louder.
"But you can't! You will keep hoping, you HAVE to keep hoping! Otherwise you will never achieve your grand ambition!"
"I SAID SHUT UP!!" Giovanni violently slapped the creature. But its head didn't even budge from the impact.
"And so, in conclusion Giovanni…" the creature continued. "It's the opposite of what you think. I control you. I am going to kill you. You're only possible course of action is to release me now and get it over with, or to wait until the day comes." The creature spoke its words coldly and sadistically, in a way that can only be described as malevolent. This time, Giovanni slapped the creature as hard as he could, and this time, the experiment felt it a little. The creature continued to smile as Giovanni immediately turned his back on it.
"GUARDS!" he shouted, mad as ever. Instantly, two team rocket henchmen, both male and wearing the same uniforms rushed into the room from the elevator.
"SIR!" they said, hands to their heads in respect.
"It is not to even move while I am gone." Giovanni said coldly. "Understood?"
"UNDERSTOOD, SIR!" they both replied in unison.
"Good." Giovanni calmly walked over to the elevator, and typed in floor 11, his private office. And as the door closed on him, he never took his eyes off the creature.
And the creature never took its eyes off him.
"WHERE IS EVERYBODY?!" Ash yelled as loud as he possibly could.
"PIKA PIKA!!" Pikachu yelled, equally loud. Ash, unable to bear it, sunk to his knees.
"This can't be right Pikachu…" Ash said. "Even for one of my Moms pranks, this goes too far. Something's wrong…" Pikachu ran over, and rubbed his cheeks to Ash, trying to cheer him up. Ash looked at Pikachu, but he found no words to say. After a while, Ash stood up, Pikachu on his shoulder.
"We're going to find them, Pikachu! And whoever is holding them captive is going to be sorry…"
"Pika pika!" Pikachu said, cheeks sparkling with determination. Ash brought his hand to his chin.
"Now… if I had just taken an entire town captive, where would I hide them…" Ash's face lit up.
"THE NEAREST BURGER JOINT!!"
Pikachu fell down anime style.
"Pika, pipika pika…(are you sure your stomach isn't doing the thinking?")" Pikachu said to Ash.
"Uh... well I am kinda hungry…" Ash said. "Hey I know! Let's go to my house to see if we can find any clues!" Ash said.
"Pika! (yeah!)" Pikachu responded.
"Starting with the kitchen!"
Pikachu fell down again.
Mewtwo scanned what remained of the island. Hardly anything was left of it.
"Hmm."Mewtwo said. "Nothing remains. He studied the ground more closely. Bits and pieces of machine parts lingered here and there, but no sign of anything.
"Strange… I was sure that the signal was broadcasted from this point…" suddenly, something caught Mewtwo's eye. Looking closely at the ground, he saw spiders. All scurrying to a hole in the earth.
"Spiders?" Mewtwo said. The island was uninhabited, and small in size. Furthermore, there was nothing for the spiders to thrive on, nor anything that the spiders might have used to get here.
And yet they were there.
Then, something else came into view. A small tear of a black uniform. Mewtwo picked it up, and smelled it.
"Rockets." Mewtwo said, slightly bitter. "I should have known they'd be involved in this." Mewtwo scanned the area; as far as he knew, there were no such bases for the Rockets for miles on end.
"Where to look…" Mewtwo sighed.
"I know where to look."
Mewtwo turned around, slightly shocked. He saw no one.
"Down here." The voice said. Mewtwo looked down, and saw his shadow.
Grinning at him.
"What's up Mewtwo?" his shadow said. Mewtwo remained calm, someone must be performing some move on his shadow.
"Who are you?" Mewtwo asked calmly.
"I'm you." His shadow smiled. Mewtwo raised an eyebrow.
"I don't buy it."
"Yeah… thought you might say something like that…" His shadow said, clearly disappointed his guise had failed. "Oh well…" Mewtwo used his psychic powers to perform a quick analysis on his shadow. In his mind's eye, he saw a dark halo surrounding his shadow. That meant that, as Mewtwo suspected, that someone, or something, was communicating to him from a long distance.
"What do you want?" Mewtwo tried again.
"A deal." His shadow said. "Knowledge for knowledge." Mewtwo became intrigued.
"What kind?"
"I know where the Rockets went, and what went on here as well." His shadow answered. "I'll tell you everything, if you give me an honest answer to the question I present to you." Mewtwo thought a little before answering.
"Fine." Mewtwo said.
"First, my question." His shadow said. "Where is the location for the meeting of the legends?" Mewtwo's eyes widened.
"I don't know if I can answer that. You may be an attacker for all I know. Planning to assault when, if we meet next."
His shadow grinned. "Sharp intuition I see. Very well…" the shadow sighed. "I will not attack any Pokémon so long as they are in the confines of the location. Mewtwo studied his shadow. The aura did not waver, so it was telling the truth.
"Stonehenge." Mewtwo said. His shadow frowned.
"I've been there already." His shadow said.
"Yes, but in order to get into the meeting, you tap the seal on the far left broken stone, and it will teleport you to the real location." Mewtwo said.
"Duh!" His shadow cursed. "Why didn't I think of that!? I should've check the ruins more carefully…!!"
"Now, my question." Mewtwo said. "Exactly what happened here?" His shadow looked at him.
"Mind you, I'm not a genius or anything, so I don't know EXACTLY what happened, all I can tell you is what I saw."
"Fine." Mewtwo said.
"I was flying around, and I just happened to pass this island. Suddenly, this giant helicopter almost rams into me, thank god I was transparent and invisible, and lands on the island. So I think to myself: this looks interesting, so I fly down to the island.
As I'm looking around, people in black uniforms with the letter R planted on their shirts come, and they invade this computer lab or something. Then, they take this human sized tank, and put it in their copter. And as they fly off, they put a bomb down and blow the lab up." His shadow finished.
"By the way, there was something in that tank that they took…"
"What?" Mewtwo asked.
"I have no idea." His shadow answered. "The only thing I know is… it was alive."
Mewtwos eyes widened. The signal! He thought.
"Which way did they go?" Mewtwo asked urgently.
"East from here." His shadow replied. Mewtwo grew hesitant.
"Is all of this true?" he asked the person controlling his shadow.
"All of it. I swear upon my name."
"And what exactly is your name?" Mewtwo asked. His shadow paused before a huge grin spread across its face.
"I said I would answer… only ONE question…" and with that, his shadow returned to normal. Mewtwo stared at his shadow a little while longer, expecting it to pop back to life. But no, it stayed. And so, Mewtwo hovered into the air, and flew east, going to where who knows what would await him.
Ash pushed the door open to his Mom's house. His eyes darted left to right. So far, everything appeared normal. No furniture had been moved, and the lights were off. Ash turned on the lights to get a better view. Everything was still normal. Pikachu hopped off of Ash's shoulder and went into the kitchen, and Ash followed. Pikachu sniffed the air, then jumped onto the kitchen counter, pulled a note off the cupboards, and gave it to Ash.
"Pikachu pika pi chu." Pikachu said, saying that the note had traces of her scent on it.
"How old do you think it is?" Ash asked.
"Pika… pika pi. (about… a couple hours)" Pikachu replied.
"Kay…" Ash said. He took the note from Pikachu, and read it.
The forest It read.
"The forest…" Ash said slowly. "Maybe this is it Pikachu! We should head there next!"
"Pika!" Pikachu hopped onto Ashes shoulder, and Ash ran out of his house, heading to the nearby woods next to his town. In only a couple minutes, they reached the edge. Ash analyzed his watch, it read nine o clock. Ash stared into the forest, and walked in as stealthily as he could.
Pikachu walking by his side, Ash walked very carefully in the forest, so to not be detected by whatever was in here. Pikachu turned his head and whispered "Pika pika…" meaning that something was close by. Ash immediately stood still and listened behind a bush. Soon, some Pidgey came into view, and disappeared. False alarm.
But then, Pikachu heard something else.
"Pika pi chu! (something's coming!)" He said to his friend. Ash nodded his head, as he heard it too, and he quickly climbed up into a tree, and a couple seconds later, he saw something that was very unexpected.
People wearing masks that you would see on Halloween, and wearing nothing but straw skirts, and a bra for the women.
Ash had stumbled upon what appeared to be voodoo tribesmen.
One of them stepped forth from the twenty or so that were there. He wore the largest mask, and appeared to be the oldest of all of them. He gazed out at Pallet town before speaking.
"… at what time will the ceremony commence?" he spoke.
"About seven tomorrow." One of the men said. The old man, who appeared to be the chief, nodded his head slowly.
"Good. Everything is proceeding as scheduled." He turned back to his tribe and spoke words of warning.
"Remember: we must get Ash Ketchum! He is paramount to our plans! Without him, this entire operation is a failure!" somewhere in the tree, Ash gasped. They were planning to kidnap him.
"What about the Lava pit?" the chief asked. "Is is ready yet?"
"No sir…" one of the men replied meekly.
"Well get it done! It must be ready by tomorrow!" the chief said fiercely. "And the sacrifices, what of them!?"
"We have five, Tracey, May, Gary, Brock, and Max." a young looking girl replied. "They are currently stored in the prison, and we are preparing the sticks to hang them by."
They're going to sacrifice my friends!! Ash thought angrily. Pikachu's cheeks flared up a little.
"Excellent." The chief said. "Very well then, back to the lair."
"Wait sir!" another man spoke. "What about Misty? She hasn't arrived yet!"
Ashes heart skipped a beat.
"…We throw her in the lava pit, just like the other sacrifices."
