Hi! As you can see, this is the third chapter of COL! Not much to say…today's Sunday where I am…

You know what? I better start before people get bored of me stating the obvious…take it away you guys!

Red/Green/Blue: She doesn't own Pokespe.

Red: Wait a minute…what's 'Pokespe'?

Chapter 3

Blue started retelling of her 'adventure' on the S.S. Aqua.

"Y'see…I was sitting outside beside the boat since I was early for the boarding time. That was the day-"

-Blue was finally going to meet her parents. The captain of the Aqua approached her. "It's not time yet, lassie…the boat won't set off 'til much later." He said, "Why are you so early?"

Blue brightly smiled at him, "I'm meeting my parents today. We've been separated for a long time…"

"I see. You must be looking forward to it!" said the captain,"…Okay! If that's the case, I'll make an exception! You may go on board now! Perhaps you won't feel bored if you're waiting on the ship."

"Really?" Blue asks in astonishment.

So then, Blasty jets her onto the ship. While inside the ship, Blue let's out all her pokemon and begins to explore the ship. More people start boarding as the ship starts to move. But right then, a mysterious pokemon attacks out of nowhere. Blue attacks while running to the top of the ship. Then she pulls out her Silph Scope to figure out who or what the enemy is. It reveals a fast blur. Suddenly, the scope is knocked out of her hands. The mysterious enemy strangles her neck and waist. "Grg…rg…!" 'I…I can't breathe…my voice…! Something invisible is strangling me…!' she panics. The scope is sucked into a black hole, broken into pieces.

Blue desperately attempts to get someone's attention, for the boat has docked to shore already. Then she notices…a woman with short brown hair and a man with striking blue eyes-her parents! Her parents notice her and dash to her, trying to get her from the clutches of the enemy.

'Mummy! Daddy! No! Don't come any closer!' Blue pleads them through her mind. Her parents see the hole, but it's too late. They are sucked into the darkness, right in front of Blue's eyes…

Blue stopped at that moment with a frown. Silver put a hand on her shoulder for comfort. He didn't know that had happened. Blue was just happy that she had her parents that she didn't tell him all the hardships. Red and Green looked down at the sight of her sadness that day. Everyone else looked at Blue either shocked or with sympathy.

"…I think that was one of the…bad things that happened first…" Red mumbled.

"It was, Red." Green declares, "it was the reason for our first actions."

"Guys…?"

Everyone turned to Yellow.

"…How many bad things happened during that time…?"

The Pallet town Dex Owners looked at each other. "…We don't know." They said in sync. Green sighed. "Seriously…this story doesn't even have a happy ending. Not until later."

"Two months later…" Silver says solemnly.

"Hey…that's right!" Gold exclaims while standing up, "Those three don't know about the Battle Frontier incident!" he said, pointing at Dia, Pearl and Platina (TRIPLE OBJECTION! Lol).

"Calm down, Gold!" Crys tells him, putting hands her in front of her, "We can tell them about that after the senior's story."

"Guys…I wanna tell it this time." Red tells his two best friends.

"Well, I was unconscious…"

"Fine. Go ahead."

"Yes!"

A/N: Well, this chapter was shorter than the other two…

Next time: Red tells the next part of the story!...I'm stating the obvious again, aren't I?

…Yeah…you can go now.

Wait! Don't forget to review!

…Okay, get outta here. I have nothing else to s- oh…

…I'll shut up now.
