Ok, I'm pretty sure you guys don't really need the key...seeing as, y'know, you could just go to last chapter and look at it...so yea. (Plus I'm lazy) P.S: If I get some of the sinnoh region's..things wrong, I'm sorry, I've never played pokemon diamond, so please don't hurt me...

*Hides in corner*


"Lets go to umm, canalave city?" Asked George, struggling to stay in the air as he spoke, but regained balance when he finished. I nodded and pushed at the air, launching myself forwards, George following close behind. The feeling of flying was...unexplainable, I laughed, the feeling of freedom bringing the first genuine smile to my face in years. So this is what it's like, to fly, to be free. Do you like it? I can help you know. Look, I don't know what or who you think you are, but get out of my head! Look, I'll answer your questions and leave you be...for now anyway. I, in a way, am you. Just...how should I put this...different, I suppose. Ok, you've answered my question, now go! Fine, fine, keep your tail on, I'm going... The voice faded away and I shook my head. Am I going crazy? I pushed the thought from my mind and continued, diving down, signaling to George that we were there, well at least, somewhere nearby to land that was empty of people. Or so I thought. As soon as we landed, and I willed my wings away, a group of ten or so jumped from the bushes and overcame George, but the five that went after me weren't so lucky. I jumped, landing on their shoulders and kicked. Knocking two to the ground and spin-kicking the other three. When I was sure that they were down for the count, I turned to check on George, but he was gone, along with his captors. Oh, for Lord Arceus' sake! I ran to see if they left any tracks, but there were none. DAMMIT! EVERY. SINGLE. GODDAMN. TIME! I can help...just let me in...you'll see, you'll see that power is fun, that control over others is fun too, but you don't have to...you can just act as you are now, get on with your life...well, afterlife, if you will. But still, I can help you find him...Look...who ever you are, I don't want whatever you're selling. I have my own power, so stay out of this. If you are me though...did you forget I'm a half-demon? My senses are about 50% higher than a humans, I can just sniff him out. So I raised my face in the direction I suspected they went and caught the scent, running after it, I spread my wings for a boost and chased them down, the trail leading to a deep cave. Oh good... I walked in and there they were, George was unconscious, a mad-looking scientist leaning over him with a scalpel in hand, smiling maniacally. I pushed against the air with my wings and launched myself forward, colliding with that weirdo and crashing into a wall.

"What are you doing, you wretched beast?" He yelled, "I wasn't going to kill him." I stood up and growled, thinking what would be most threatening at the moment and my mind rested on a wolf. Damn it all, if I could shapeshift I could get out of here with George and kick this guy's ass at the same time... But just as I thought that, I felt like I was shrinking...and landed on all fours. I glanced at myself and was astonished, I turned into a wolf. Shapeshifting with just a thought huh? this could be useful... I jumped over the scientist and grabbed george by the scruff of his coat and ran, flinging him onto my back as I exited. Oh my god, oh my god! The adrenaline rush was immense, It pushed me onwards and onwards until we were just outside the town. I stopped and rolled George off my back and tried changing to an absol, which turned out ok, so I pulled George back on my back and pretended to limp into the town. Help? anyone? No? ok...I spotted a Pikachu and its trainer that looked kind of friendly, so I walked up to them.

"Excuse me? Umm, Pikachu?" I said cautiously.

"Yea? Do you need something?" it replied and tugged at its trainer, trying to get his attention.

"What is it?" The dark-haired trainer said "Oh, an absol! And who's that?"

"Yea, who is it?"

"Umm, I guess he's my trainer?"

"Oh, your trainer? He looks hurt..." He said, and lifted George off my back. "Ok Pikachu, lets get him to a pokecenter then."

"Is this becoming a thing now? He ALWAYS ends up in a pokemon center somehow." I walked out to the forest and shapeshifted back to my normal form. After stretching my arms I tested what I could do Lets see... I know, lets mess around with peoples heads...How about...Eevee. I shrank and my hair turned brown, before I knew it I was an Eevee, so I ran into the town and jumped out of the way of several attacks and pokeballs. So I ran into the forest again and shapeshifted back to an absol. I trotted back to the pokecenter to check on George, and surprisingly, he was already up and about.

"George? can you follow me?"

"Umm, sure?"

So he followed me back into the safety of the forest and shapeshifted back to normal, much to George's surprise.

"Wait, Morgan?! Since when could you shapeshift?"

"Ever since I saved you I guess...But still...Is the fact that you keep ending up in the pokemon centre going to become a thing now? A gimmick maybe?" I said mockingly, crossing my arms.

"What? No! It's just that I keep...getting...knocked...out...oh, right."

"Exactly."

"I'm done with this conversation, come on, lets go."

"Fine by me."

So we walked out of the forest and into the brighter sunlight and made our way back to the path, where a bunch of guys in suits coloured silver and blue cut us off.

"So, you turned up did you?" Said one,

"It took you long enough." Said the other.

I sighed. Now what?

"Just get out the way, I'm busy y'hear? I don't have time for the likes of you." I tried to walk past them, forgetting that my ears and tail were ever visible and it was both of us that they were after. They blocked me and pulled my arm.

"You're not going anywhere." He whispered. "Come with us." They knocked me out, somehow, and George was knocked out shortly after. Again?! Really...Let me in...No. LET ME IN! NO! Please? FOR ARCEUS' SAKE NO! I woke up to a bright light above my head and a pain in my leg.
