Second-to-last Chapter 8O
Chapter 7- Dangerous (Cascada)
THE SONG IS UNFITTING I KNOW I WAS DESPERATE FOR A SONG OK! SO, BEFORE YOU PEOPLE GO "THAT SONG IS UNFITTING!" STFU! GOSH!
ANYWAY!
"I don't trust anyone."
Shaymin's voice was cold; it silenced all the Legendary Pokémon Gijinkas in the room.
"I know how this goes."
A girl with the most gorgeous blue eyes spoke up, her voice childishly innocent and concerned.
"Why?"
The white-haired female looked down.
"The pregnant one is disregarded...like always..."
Rayquaza leaned forward.
"Why should that apply?"
Giratina's POV-
Her eyes were hard.
I could feel the fear radiating off her frail body.
Shaymin Skyflower was Terrified.
The scent of fear usually appealed to me, but her fear was like a sheet of frost; cold and muffling all around it. She was biting back tears, and her mind was overwhelmed like a dew-loaded Gracidia Flower.
My mind was a Dark asylum; madness lurked evilly and Darker instincts lay within my Origin Form.
A form of pure evil.
"..."
Everyone was looking at me in shock.
"What?"
I was truly baffled.
Normal POV-
The Gratitude Gijinka glared at Giratina in cold disbelief.
"I said I'm bloody pregnant"
Then she fled, crying.
Don't know anything about you
So close, just a touch away
Your love hits me like no other
The Renegade blinked.
"..."
Zapdos coughed.
"We-ell...Giratina?"
"How canst thou be sure that-"
"Speak like a normal person for once, will you?" Articuno sounded annoyed.
The Reaper looked a trifle offended at that.
"...I meant- How can you be sure that I am the-"
Zapdos stood up, his excitement causing little bolts of electricity to fly off his body.
"You crazy? (Don't answer that) She was glaring at you the whole time!"
"Really?" His voice sounded a bit shrill and panicky.
"Yeah! A-a-and, she is always around you!" Zapdos was talking fast, and exclaiming irrationally.
"Oh!"
"A-a-a-and! And!She said so the whole group here!"
"!"
"R-r-r-really! How did you not here her! WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU!"
Everyone was silent.
"WELL! WHERE WERE-MMPH!"
Zapdos grunted as his Sister, Articuno, struck him solidly on the back with her wing.
"Ah...sorry."
Giratina was speechless.
"Er...are you OK?"
"..."
"Um...Giratina?"
The Renegade disappeared suddenly, in a cloud of shadows. Everyone gasped.
"Well...I guess that ends the meeting...er...yeah..."
The awkward voice of Celebi was greeted with a chorus of agreement.
They say I'm a true believer
I know something's taking over now
I wanna run but I don't know how
You just crossed my border now
Just a kiss away
Shaymin ignored the cold feeling and the deep gong/bell/tomb-stone-closing sound that signalled the approach of him.
"Shaymin?"
"Go away!" The voice was biting, yet muffled.
"Why?"
"Your presence is disturbing, Reaper! Get your archaic arse away from me!"
"...er...I do not have any idea what thee just said..."
Shaymin sniffed.
'Just piss off!"
"Ah, no. I think not, Gratitude."
Shaymin raised her tear streaked face incredulously.
"What?"
"You heard me, girl."
"Why are you here? To mock me?" Her tone took on a bitter edge.
"This is as much of your fault as it is mine, Reaper!"
Giratina shuddered at that name in obvious disgust.
"How was I supposed to know!"
"You're supposed to know everything!"
"..."
"Just go away! Back to your Reverse World."
"No."
Shaymin's eyes flashed in anger.
"I do not see thy issue..." His voice trailed off uncertainly.
"Really? Then, you're more insensitive than I thought!" With that, the Gratitude Gijinka swept away, crying and screaming curses and insults at him.
Give me a break
I'm melting away
You're so dangerous
Or is it too late?
Gotta know what's on your mind
"You're gonna have to talk to her again, you know..."
Giratina sighed sadly; Darkrai blinked at this.
"I...I cannot. She would murder me if I came any closer to her...I had absolutely no idea!" He added in a quick voice, as if Darkrai had some secret connection to Shaymin via mental links or something.
"Well, for a start, Shaymin isn't just expecting 1 child...she's expecting..." here Giratina had a deeply concerned look; another thing unusual for the Grim Reaper.
"What? Why doth thou refuse to speak..."
Darkrai groaned inwardly.
"Three."
Giratina paled (somehow) and his red eyes went wild.
"...what?" He choked out, his voice squeaky and strangled.
"I just said, three. You are going to be the 'proud' father of triplets." Darkrai made sure to make the air quotes around 'proud' as strong as possible. Sarcasm, while he could use it, was not one of the Renegade's stronger points.
"...three. Three. Three children." Giratina's voice was flat.
"That's what I just said, yes."
"..."
"Oh, and Cresselia told me that Shaymin is locked in her room; I guess she's a bit pissed." Darkrai added in an apparently dismissive voice; this didn't help Giratina's already tightly stretched nerves.
"Really?" Giratina's voice was as cold as ice.
"We-ell, last I heard, she was screaming curses directed at you, and loud sounds of breaking china-ware have been witnessed and seen by Cresselia." The Darkness Gijinka sighed and his visible electric blue eye clouded as the mention of his wife's name spun its calming magic.
Giratina raised an eyebrow.
"When will her...um..." He paused, his face briefly puzzled as he thought of a word.
Darkrai frowned.
"'Complications'?" He suggested tentatively.
"...yes, that is right. When will her complications calm down enough so that I can talk to her without being sworn at repeatedly?"
Darkrai's scowl grew darker.
"I rather doubt if she'll everwant to talk to you again..." Darkrai grunted, annoyed that his interesting though pattern had been interrupted. He sighed and looked at Giratina's somehow hurt expression.
'...Look, I reckon her main issue with this problem is that she wasn't married." He carefully emphasised the last two words.
"This may be a hazard guess, but I think that she wants to get married."
The Darkness Pokémon waited as this piece of news sunk in. A light seemed to go off in the Renegade's head.
"...What? She wants to marry someone?" His voice was incredulous.
Darkrai grinned; he was really enjoying the expression of surprise and alarm and...was it...jealousy...on his face.
"No, not 'someone'..."
Darkrai stifled a snort of laughter, but his companion was less than amused.
"What art thou trying to say? Speak!" He sounded a trifle testy.
"Ah, she wants to marry...y-you!" the Darkrai Gijinka burst out laughing, a novelty for him. Giratina was speechless. His red eyes were devoid of thought, which is a rarity. Darkrai's laughter helped his as much as a fire stops a flood.
"...What...the hell? Why me!" He sounded faintly hysteric.
"Because she does love you."
I'm out of control
Cause you want it all
You're so dangerous
My biggest mistake
I'm blinded by your eyes
Dangerous
Darkrai and Giratina turned around swiftly, addressing the light, musical, feminine voice from behind them. The female's voice was confident, her violet eyes kind and sympathetic.
"Cresselia."
Giratina uttered her name respectfully; Darkrai followed his example, yet put a lot of private meanings in that one word.
The glowing figure blushed slightly; Darkrai smirked his 'triumphant' smirk and his eye sparkled naughtily. The change Cresselia had brought upon him was incredible; his cold Darkness had been transferred into some vague sense of warm passion, and Cresselia had said in front of them all that she was pregnant about 4 months ago. Which made Shaymin's acting up suspicious.
"Really? She who curses my name and would kill me if she ever saw me again? Hah."
Giratina's scornful tone was forced.
"Yes. She does."
"Yes, listen to her, Giratina. Cresselia is a wise person..." Darkrai poured all the sarcasm he could into the word 'wise', causing Cresselia to blush and glare at her husband. Darkrai grinned and leaned back with his perfected 'This has nothing to do with me so I don't give a shit' face.
"Then, why all this crap that she gives me? I most certainly did not do anything to her. Well...apart from the obvious."
Cresselia sighed.
"It's her way of saying that she wants you to make a move or something, but she wants to see if you are worth it."
The reaper coughed incredulously.
"And, I this is her way of testing me!"
"Well, I guess so."
A long silence followed, broken only by Darkrai's muttering as he slept curled on the spot, his face pained. That was usual, of course.
Giratina breathed in deeply, then exhaled loudly; this was an exercise in futility, since he was already half dead and only breathed to make his fellow Legendaries more comfortable around him; as if anyone could be honestly and truthfully comfortable in the presence of the Grim Reaper.
"Cresselia?"
"Mm?"
"How did Darkrai propose to you?"
I'm out of control
Don't you push it to the limit
Cause you know I'm hungry for your touch
No doubt, I wanna be your lover
"Shaymin?"
The Gratitude Gijinka scowled deeply as her name was called by an all too familiar voice. A wave of nausea flew through her body, and she breathed in deeply.
"What..." She snapped in a weak and shaky voice.
"Can I talk or wilt thou infect me with the poisoned arrows of thine hatred?"
Shaymin flushed slightly and held onto a guilty silence.
"Yes, speak. You bastard..." This last bit was muttered under her breath.
"I heard that. Anyway. Why are you being like this? "
The Gratitude Pokemon Gijinka bit her lip and stood up, her momentary sickness passing slowly.
"Show yourself."
Good Lord, he wasn't even speaking in his archaic form of speech.
This must be serious.
"I must wonder though, Shaymin. What have I exactly done? Other than the obvious. Have I hurt or mistreated you in anyway?" His now visible face hardened.
"..." She couldn't trust herself to speak.
'Or...may...mayhap thy distress cometh from within?" Ah, back to the normal speech.
"...No." her voice, trying to sound fierce, was as quiet as a leaf in the wind.
"Well, then?" His voice was soft and his eyes were locked on hers.
"...Since when did you care..." her snappish reply was a mere whisper.
"Since thou first called me a... 'Motherless bastard son of a whore Weavile' I believe."
Shaymin was entranced by his blood red gaze. His hand was caressing her face and her anger was forgotten. In fact, if this was going the way she thought it was going, she would have no reason to be angry with him.
"Oh. Why?" Her voice was a murmur. Giratina was having such a positive effect on her; it's amazing what the Grim Reaper can do, it seems.
"Because...Thou art the only one who would put up with my crap all day every day..."
He leaned forward. Shaymin's heart shivered at his touch.
"Because...I..."
Shaymin breathed his name softly; the Renegade whispered on her lips:
"...Love thee."
And then they kissed.
They say, just a pretender
I know something's taking over now
I wanna run but I don't know how
You just crossed my border now
Standing face to face
(Later)
"So..."
The Renegade sighed; Shaymin nuzzled into his wary embrace.
"So, Shaymin..."
"Yes?"
Giratina closed his eyes and took a theatrical deep breath in.
"Wilt thou...er..."
Shaymin pulled away, her face questioning.
"Hmm?"
"Urr...Marry me...?"
Silence.
"Shit. That came out so wrong. Er..." he tried to recollect his thoughts.
Shaymin's face, unknown to his, broke out in a huge grin.
"...And I never do this...mayhap I wasn't ment to-mmph!"
His muttering was cut short as Shaymin enthusiastically kissed him; her mind, Giratina noted absently, a white sheet of pure bliss.
A click snapped in the Grim Reaper's mind. This was the reason he had felt so empty; his lack of...Shaymin...had been the cause of the hole in his mind. He felt the crystal rose of his mind heal itself, centuries of scars and shattered petals being mended at her touch. The black blood that surged through his veins gave away his increasing; it was strange- he didn't breath, yet he had a heart and blood.
Shaymin moaned and pushed against him. He pulled away, much to her intense disappointment.
"Desperate, are we?" He rasped, grinning at the smouldering glare she gave him.
"It doesn't matter...I'm already pregnant..." She giggled absently and she noted with satisfaction at the mutual feeling she read in his eyes, which were like mini crimson fires.
"I take it that thou hast accepted my proposal..." Giratina's voice was hoarse and hopeful; and odd combination for the Renegade.
"My dear, we've been married since Mew made this world."
She roughly shoved him against the wall of her room, only focusing on the male in front of her.
"...Now we're going to formalize it, really." Giratina chimed in.
Shaymin laughed and murmured on his lips:
"What about a ring?"
Giratina paused. A long line of thought followed this comment, before he replied in a low growl:
"Later..."
Give me a break
I'm melting away
You're so dangerous
Or is it too late?
Gotta know what's on your mind
I'm out of control
Cause you want it all
You're so dangerous
My biggest mistake
I'm blinded by your eyes
Dangerous
(Much later)
"So...what are we going to tell the other Legendaries?"
Shaymin blinked wearily. Her hazel eyes were sleepy, yet she thought this over extensively. To Giratina, watching her think, which involved her sitting cross-legged on whatever was available and staring at the ground in deep concentration, was just like an old person with a sign saying 'Kill Me!' over his head in a group of wild Mightyena. Utterly irresistible. He had no idea why, though.
After a long silence, she blinked and smirked.
"Why tell them?"
"It took thee an hour to figure that out?"
"Yep! Well, I had to go over some long theories and examine the consequences of each option."
"Ah."
Shaymin yawned and lay down again, in a purposely provocative position.
Giratina snorted and closed his eyes; a black aura surrounded his body and the calming effect this had was amazing.
He sighed.
"Oh, you didn't think I was gonna let you sleep that easily, did you?"
Giratina opened one blood red eye. He let the aura disappear and smirked wickedly.
"Yes. As a matter of fact, I did."
Shaymin wrapped her arms around him again; her voice hissed in his ear:
"Well, let me show you just how damn wrong you were..."
I'm out of control
Cause you want it all
You're so dangerous
My biggest mistake
I'm blinded by your eyes
