It was nighttime in the Sinnoh Region, Oreburgh time and kids were outside of their houses playing with the Pokemon they had at the moment. It was not common to see kids playing outside when it was late at night. But, the adults of the city had to discuss the problems slowly being awakened. And they had to find a solution as quick as possible.

All of the adults were packed up in a large house that was big enough to house all of them and it seemed they were all alarmed at the moment. One by one, people were arguing whether the rumors were true or false. They didn't want to believe it due to the fact of what happened before. They had to make sure things were accurate and see if there was a threat that could affect the Sinnoh Region, along with every other region in the world.

It was six years ago, when it happened. A group of people who were unnamed due to the danger of being killed in the future somehow stopped Team Galactic, an evil organization that aimed to create a new world, and stopped them from causing destruction all around the world. Their plan was cruel, vile, and risky. Everyone was glad that this group of people came, otherwise everyone wouldn't be here today.

Team Galactic had planned to take control of Dialga and Palkia by using the Red Chain that they acquired from extracting the energy of Mesprit, Uxie, and Azelf; the Lake Guardians of Sinnoh. They were close to doing just that, when that group of people managed to delay Team Galactic long enough for Dialga and Palkia to break free. Once they were free, they created havoc and brought chaos in such a limited amount of time. They fought with each other for hours on end, and their screeches of pain were heard as far away as Kanto.

Eventually, they were stopped by the Elite Four and Champions of each region, but the damage had been done already. Veilstone City was received most of the damage in the end. Nearly the entire city was destroyed and it left hundreds of people homeless. It took them nearly four years just to fix the city, and that was a lot of time considering people from around the world were helping and donating money to them. Many cities and towns in Sinnoh were affected by this one single event in time that eventually turned into "The Battle Of Sinnoh". It was infamous for the actions of Team Galactic and one of the first times all of the regions teamed up to take Dialga and Palkia. It was a long, tough, and grueling experience for anyone who went through it. But in the end, mostly everyone survived.

Nearly half of Team Galactic's member soon went into hiding while the other half were brought to jail and every one of them got a life sentence. They were reviled each time people brought the subject. For the first four years, people were worried and scared to death that Team Galactic would rise again and this time, end this world of everything in it. But as time passed, people slowly forgot about the idea and began to continue their old life and start anew.

The Sinnoh Defense, after experiencing the tragedy, were forced to recruit more and more members. About five hundred of their armed forces were killed in battle and their Pokemon were lucky if they survived. Any of those that survived, were forced to go through psychological and mental treatment. They would relive those moments and go crazy, as if they didn't know anything. They would shout out to their proctors exactly how they reacted when the event ruined their lives. It was a traumatic experience for them all, and that's why they had to work harder for a stronger defense.

It was six years past the incident, and everything was calm and being rebuilt. Most of Sinnoh Region had recovered and the people were now living normal lives once more. It remained cautious of anything that happened, but anything else excluding that, they seemed careless nowadays. It was just a normal region once again, where people didn't have to care about what's happening. They could live peacefully again, a life they longed for years.

But unfortunately, it seemed like just after the region had recovered, there was trouble once again.

Three weeks ago, a man hiking in Mt. Coronet was searching for any fossils remaining in the area when he saw them. In Spear Pillar, a group of people with the exact same clothing as Team Galactic were doing an operation at the time. He was not spotted luckily, and he immediately reported to the authorities in Oreburgh City. They were shocked to hear that, they were baffled and at first they didn't believe him. But when the authorities looked into it, it seemed more of truth than a lie. It has been reported by three people just a few days ago that a mysterious group was doing something in Spear Pillar. And judging from what they saw, it was indeed Team Galactic.

It was immediately brought up to the elders and adults of the city and they were all having an argument about this now. There was people yelling at each other, denying anything while the elders village watched on. It was true, people didn't want to accept that Team Galactic, a group of people that could have killed everyone in this world years ago, was back. The witnesses were brought up to speak, and as they spoke, the elders could hear nothing but truth. They spoke of what they were doing, and what their plans seemed to be. It looked as if they wanted to bring back Palkia and Dialga once more, it was an idea that shocked everyone.

But they were wrong, it was a much worse idea than anyone could imagine.

A lady stood in the center of Spear Pillar, waiting impatiently for the next phase of the plan to take effect. She was walking back and forth, trying to remain calm until this began. She had a reason to be impatient, this part of the plan took a week and now it was finally gonna be over.

"Master Alison, we are now ready to begin!" a man with sea blue hair stated, approaching Alison with a confident look on his face. Alison turned back, before she grinned at the Galactic Commander.

Alison was a sixteen year old rogue trainer who was the newly appointed Team Galactic Boss. She held the title for nearly two years when Team Galactic regrouped once again. They had this operation in the works since and now it was finally going into effect. Two whole years of planning and preparing for this day. It was time to begin.

They chose to work in the shadows due to the rise of camera surveillance rising in every region. It was risky to work in the place they know today. So they chose to live their lives normally but with a different identity. From time to time, they would all meet up to discuss the current status of Team Galactic. They at times had close calls and almost got caught, but they managed to keep their work a secret until now.

"Right Saturn! Let's cut the talk and begin the operation now!" she impatiently ordered and Saturn nodded before one of the galactic scientists came up to Alison. He held a red button on his hands, similar to what you would expect from a movie. It already spelled out disaster once she saw it, and she was delighted.

"I expect that this will bring back Cyrus no matter what, right Charon?" Alison asked, taking away the device from Charon, one of the Galactic Commanders.

"Yes Master Alison! With the Red Chain and all of the grunts ready to attack, we'll be able to successfully bring back Cyrus!" Charon assured as he chuckled evilly. The sound of his chuckle already self-assured her that it was gonna be a one-hundred percent success. He always chuckled like that when he knew something was gonna be a success.

Alison nodded briefly before she stared angrily at the button. Just one push, and everything will go back to the way it was. The memories of The Battle of Sinnoh shrouded her memory, and her conscience took over. She slammed her hand hard into the red button and she walked back as the operation went into effect.

The moment she pressed the red button, Saturn and the other Galactic Commanders brought out a Red Chain, which began to levitate high into the air. It was the same actions that Cyrus did six years ago, but now it was to save him rather than aim to kill everyone and start a new world.

The Red Chain levitated in the air for a few seconds before Charon took out a computer and began typing multiple commands which sparked the Red Chain. With a simple push of a key, the Red Chain released out a large cry that was unexpected for everyone.

Everyone stared, worried as to what was that loud noise that suddenly pulsed from the Red Chain. In a second, a black, emptiness of a portal appeared and Alison cautiously walked up to the Red Chain. She stared, serious as she could ever be at the portal before a hand popped out, which freaked nearly everyone out.

Soon, another hand popped out of the portal. It was gripping tightly at the Red Chain and Alison presumed it was the person she had in mind. She grabbed the persons hands and she pulled with all her might. A person was slowly appearing out of the portal, and soon enough, a man with light blue hair was dragged out of the portal with a look of exhaustion and worry. He had a similar uniform to Alison, except that it was filled with smudges and scratches.

"M-Master Cyrus!" Saturn called out and ran over to him with a look of mixed emotion in him. He seemed worried and scared, but he also had a look of contempt as he fell on one knee, checking on the tired individual. He was breathing heavily and the figure of a man was barely shown. He was a weak, pale individual as to what he used to be before.

Alison began to stutter in her words as she stood over the man that nearly destroyed the Sinnoh Region and the world; her father, Cyrus Milad. The man that disappeared from sight for six years and is here right in front of her. She had finally found him. After years of worrying for him, day after day she wished for him to be back. And now she saw him once more. It was no longer a wish. It was reality.

Cyrus began to cough violently while everyone stared in disbelief. There was a look of surprise as they all slowly walked over to their original boss. There was no way to explain this, but they all were just struck with this feeling inside them. It felt as if, they never knew that this was gonna happen, but it did.

"Somebody-anyone! Get a stretcher for Master Cyrus now!" Charon yelled loudly and all the Galactic Grunts started to scatter, making their way to the only stretcher in the area.

Cyrus coughed once more before Alison laid his head on her upper leg. She pressed his head lightly while also brushing a hand through his head. As a Galactic Grunt went over to them with a stretcher, she and Saturn carried Cyrus before placing him and escorting him to one of the scientists for medication. He was to be treated immediately and with no doubt, they would bring him to healthy condition in no time. He didn't look as if anything was critical, he just seemed exhausted.

Alison watched as her father was stretchered over the camp they had ready in case of emergency. She started to weep, wiping her tears away before she looked up at Saturn. He was watching her this whole time but he didn't mind. He knew that seeing a person so important after such a long time would be sad and emotional. He didn't have the same perception as her, but he just felt relieved that he was back.

But one emotion lingered in his heart that he couldn't explain. With all the damage that he caused years ago, will he plan to do the same as he did before? That gave a negative feeling, but he simply hoped that his leaders ambitions wouldn't be that cunning and predictable. For now, it was time to leave the area before anyone could spot them. The portal made a lot of noise which definitely will cause them trouble if they don't leave soon. Now that they had their leader back, the operation was a success. They can all rest now.

Yumi clumsily entered a room inside Professor Sycamores lab, in which three pokeballs were laid in table in front of her. Soon enough, Jake arrived in the scene looking as naive as ever before he laid eyes upon the pokeballs. They stood beside each other before Augustine looked at the duo.

"And now you two! It is time for you to receive your first Pokemon!" Augustine announced before he started to release each Starter Pokemon one by one.

Yumi stared wide-eyed, excited and thrilled as each of the Starter Pokemon began to materialize in front of her. In the left side stood a Pokemon that resembled a raccoon but with spikes and an oversized head. Its body was the color of white and green. She stared at it before the Spiny Nut Pokemon smiled sheepishly at her. In the middle of the trio stood a Pokemon that seemed to look like a regular fox, but with orange fur in its ears. And in the right stood a Pokemon that resembled a lazy frog, who stood with an emotionless expression before it looked up at the two trainers in front of it and smiled.

"Ahem, before any of you decide to choose, I would like to give you guys something as an exchange for getting your first Pokemon," Augustine addressed before a scientist walked up to him and gave two electronics. He carefully gave one to Jake and Yumi before continuing. "This is the Pokedex. It is a highly precious item used by all trainers around the world as a way to collect data from the Pokemon they encounter and capture. Jake and Yumi, I would like you to help me complete the Pokedex. I had the dream of just doing that, but being a professor is much of a better fit for me than traveling all around the world. So that is why I entrust you two to help me achieve the dream that I am working hard for. The question is, will you two help me?"

Yumi stared at the device given to her before she nodded determinedly at Augustine. Just accept this task and she would get her first Pokemon. Do this and she'll be able to work hard and achieve the dream she wanted to achieve from the start. She placed it in her bag and watched as Jake stared timidly at the Pokedex. It was similar to what he heard before, so he didn't really feel much of a change in him. He put the Pokedex in his bag before Augustine moved out of the way. And there stood their Kalos Starter.

"I would love to choose, but I think it's better for the rookie to choose. Maybe Yumi might have the same liking as I do," Jake suggested, moving back allowing Yumi to choose first. She gulped hearing his words before she looked at each Pokemon in front of her.

Fennekin was a good choice, it had the looks and the talent to help her achieve great things as a performer. Then there was Chespin, it was a good choice as well. It was a tough Pokemon to train, but once it was ready, it could help her more than she could expect. And finally, Froakie. She didn't really have much to say here, but it definitely fits with Jake's personality. She had only seen Froakie in Pokemon battles and she thought that maybe they'd be perfect together. And with the lazy look on its face, it most likely seemed that they shared common beliefs.

And now that left two. Chespin or Fennekin. It was a tough decision. The choice that she made here was gonna decide her entire future, she surely didn't want to mess things up. She said that she wanted to work hard to achieve her goal. Once she repeated that in her head, it didn't seem much of a hard decision. With a smile, she pointed at the starter she wanted.

"I want Chespin!" Yumi declared loudly. She smiled happily as Chespin jumped into her arms and she began petting the Spiny Nut Pokemon lightly.

"Ah yes, Chespin. This Pokemon suits you nicely Yumi! After meeting and understanding Chespin, I can tell you and her will achieve great things!" Augustine announced, giving Yumi Chespin's pokeball.

"Thanks Professor Sycamore! I won't let your words go to waste!" Yumi assured before she backed off and gave Jake the floor. Now it was his turn to get his Pokemon. She curiously wanted to see what he would get for a starter. Just how predictable can he be?

Jake shrugged before he walked up in front of Fennekin and Froakie, before he bent over and began to pet Froakies head. He smiled at the Bubble Frog Pokemon before it jumped on him and started to play around with him.

"H-Hey! Cut it out Froakie!" Jake playfully shouted as he began to laugh. Froakie jumped around Jake before sitting on top of his head with a faint smile on its face.

"Well, there's no explaining that you and Froakie do have a connection there! You both share that relaxed and easy going personality. I can tell you and him will be great friends!" Augustine announced before he handed Froakies pokeball to his new trainer.

"Thanks Professor, I really appreciate the kind words there," Jake chuckled awkwardly before he grinned happily.

To see Jake like that, Yumi was a bit dumbfounded at her first perception at him. At first, she thought that he was just a trainer who seemed never excited for anything. But now, it looked as if he was just a laid back kind of person, who can still have fun if anything comes up. She adored him even more as a result.

Jake returned his new comrade back into his pokeball before he turned back to Yumi. "Well Yumi, are you ready to begin your new adventure and travel alongside me?" Jake asked her cheerfully. She nodded shyly, turning away slightly before he walked over to her, patting her head and grinning.. "Like I said, don't need to be so shy. We're gonna be together for a while, so don't make this hard for the both of us, okay?"

Yumi blushed before she nodded and he backed off as a result. "R-Right...Jake. I'm just a bit nervous about this and all. No need to worry," she assured but in the back of her mind, she still was anxious about the road ahead of her.

Maybe this was actually gonna be more fun than she thought. With having a person with experience by her side, she could have a friend that could help her in a time of need. And besides, Jake was a nice person, she liked that about him. Paparazzi was just the problem for her. She couldn't stand them to the point where if one person begins taking pictures of her, she'd slap them and walk away as if nothing ever happened. Yup, this was gonna be more a different journey than she expected, but she was curious as to what was she gonna experience.

"Okay stop thinking Yumi! It's now time to start your adven-"

Jake's stomach grumbled loudly along with Yumi's own as well and she sweatdropped at the fact that it happened when she was gonna barge out of those doors and run to her new adventure. Perfect, starting great already.

"Before we begin, I must find a place to eat. I haven't eaten since I tried out those peanuts in the plane," Jake chuckled awkwardly, clutching his stomach as he heard his stomach growling once again for food.

"R-Right," Yumi agreed nervously before they headed out of the room and waved a goodbye to Professor Sycamore. He waved back as he watched them leave the lab, and now it was just time to wait. He knew that great things would happen to them. He smiled before he started to walk away and get a cup of coffee as a victory for him.

They exited the lab and upon stepping out, they already had a group of people lined up waiting for Jake. He fell over before Yumi giggled at his reaction. Every girl looked at her giving a death glare, in which she returned before they continued on with their fangirling.

Yup, this was gonna be harder than they thought.
