Nightshroud: The Beginning
Chapter 4
"Mewtwo?" Nightshroud asked.
"Hello again, Nightshroud." Mewtwo greeted.
"Hey Mewtwo!" Nightshroud greeted. "Not that I'm not happy to see you, but what are you doing here?" he asked.
"I came to talk to you." Mewtwo said.
"Okay!" Nightshroud said. "But not here in the sky. Lets go find land and talk!" Mewtwo nodded in agreement. Nightshroud pressed a some kind of button on his mask. The mask made a 'clank' sound. "Got it! We'll find land Northwest from here." The group then head Northwest.
They found the land like Nightshroud said. When they landed, Nightshroud got off of Latios. He then turned to Mewtwo and asked " So, what do you wanna talk about?"
"I found something under the rubble of the old Team Rocket base!" Mewtwo said.
"What did you find?" Nightshroud asked.
Mewtwo used Psychic and showed Nightshroud a pair of gloves. The gloves kinda look like Sir Aaron's gloves, but there is a clear crystal at the palm of each glove.
Nightshroud examined them. "Nice! What are those gloves for?" he asked.
"Team Rocket created those gloves to capture pokemon and make them do their biddings."Mewtwo explained.
"In short, the pokemon that are captured in those gloves are brainwashed!" Nightshroud said. Mewtwo nodded. "So, why are you showing them to me?"
"Because I thought you might be interested. And because I spent some time taking the power to possess the pokemon out and made them fit for you." Mewtwo explained.
Nightshroud was surprised. "Wow! You spent some time rigging them for me?" Mewtwo nodded. "Wow! You sure have changed!"
"I didn't change that much." Mewtwo said. "You're still the only human I trust and be called as a . . . friend." Nightshroud nodded. "So, why don't you try them out."
Nightshroud thought for moment. Then he took out a pokeball. "Come out, my friend!" The ball opened and it came out a Lucario.
Lucario looked around confused. 'Nightshroud, where are we? And who are they?' Lucario asked when he saw the eon dragons and Mewtwo.
"It's okay Lucario! They are friends!" Nightshroud said. Lucario nodded in understanding. "And we're on some island." Lucario was not surprised that Nightshroud can communicate with him because Nightshroud told Lucario everything in Alto Mare.
Lucario then noticed the gloves. 'What's with the gloves, Master?' he asked.
Nightshroud explained everything that Mewtwo told him to Lucario.
'So, Mewtwo rigged the gloves so that they can only work with you.' Lucario stated. Nightshroud nodded.
"Not only that. I also made it better and more comfortable than an ordinary pokeball." Mewtwo said.
"I see. So, what do you say Lucario?" Nightshroud asked.
Lucario thought for a moment. 'Sure! I'll give it a try!'
Nightshroud nodded. "Oh! And one more thing." Lucario is confused. "I thought I told you that you can stop calling me 'Master'? We are friends!" he smiled while Lucario looked down in embarrassment. Nightshroud held out his right hand and pointed it at Lucario. The crystal glowed a bright light and consumed Lucario. The light returned to the glove. Then the crystal turned from clear to blue.
"Was it successful?" Mewtwo asked.
"Well, there's only one way to find out!" Nightshroud exclaimed. He held out his hand. "Come on out, Lucario!" the light came out of the crystal and it took form of Lucario. "Hey, how was it?"
'It was . . . great, just like Mewtwo said!' Lucario said.
Nightshroud smiled. "Well, I'm proud that you like it!" Lucario nodded. Nightshroud then returned him back into the glove.
"Now who should I put into the other one?" Nightshroud thought for a moment then came up with an answer. "I got it!" he then took out another pokeball. "Come on out, my friend!" the ball opened and the light took form of Gallade.
Gallade looked around and saw his master and the three psychics. 'Nightshroud, whats going on?' Nightshroud explained everything. 'I see. So the other glove's free?' Nightshroud nodded. Gallade smiled. 'Lets do it!' Like Lucario, Nightshroud told Gallade about Alto Mare.
Nightshroud smiled. He held out his left hand and pointed it at Gallade. The crystal glowed a bright light and consumed Gallade and returned to the glove. The crystal turned from clear to green.
"Well, now that that's done," Nightshroud turned to the others. "we better get right to Orre!" he then hopped on to Latios. "Well, it's great seeing you again, Mewtwo!"
"Wait Nightshroud!" Mewtwo exclaimed. Nightshroud, Latios, and Latias stopped when Mewtwo told them to wait.
"What is it Mewtwo?" Nightshroud asked while getting off of Latios.
"Since you're heading to one of the most dangerous regions, you're gonna need all the help you can get!" Mewtwo said. Nightshroud was confused. "If you can, I would like to be a part of your team."
"Huh!" Nightshroud exclaimed surprised. "You want to be a part of my team too? But what about the cloned pokemon?" he asked.
"Don't worry about them! Pikachutwo and Meowthtwo are capable of ruling the island alone! They are not my apprentices for nothing!" Mewtwo said.
Nightshroud thought for a moment to choose between capturing Mewtwo or not. After a few minutes of thinking, Nightshroud chose. "Okay!" he said. He took out an empty pokeball. "Welcome to the team, Mewtwo!"
Mewtwo didn't hesitate and smiled then touched the pokeball and got absorbed in it. The ball shook for a moment and then a 'click' sound was heard meaning the capture was a success.
Nightshroud put the pokeball away and got on Latios. The eon dragons flew off like a jet. As Nightshroud and Pikachu are enjoying the scenery fo the ocean, Nightshroud murmured "Orre, here we come!"
