Latias and the Spirit Trainer

Chapter 9: "All in good time, my boy."

The next morning, Lorenzo and Bianca awoke to a loud Clang! They both got up out of bed, and ran downstairs to see what was going on, and boy were they surprised at what they saw.

"Dang it! I hope I didn't wake them up, now," I said as I held my toe along with a pot along side my foot.

"What in Arceus' name is going on?" asked Lorenzo.

"Grandpa!" said Bianca, startled at his choice of words.

"What? Oh, uh, hi? Now don't freak, I can explain," I said as I tried to keep a pot from boiling over.

"Mmmm, something smells good!" exclaimed Bianca, now standing by the boiling pot, smelling the air.

"You two like roasted Oran berries and Pecha berry smoothies?" I asked.

"Mmmm, sounds good!" said Bianca, now sitting at the table. Just then, Latios and the two Latias came in from the garden, and were now waiting at the table as well!

"Looks like I'll need to make more," I laughed.

"It certainly looks that way!" laughed Bianca.

"You want to help, Bianca?" I asked.

"Sure!" Bianca exclaimed as she ran into the kitchen as Lorenzo took a seat at the table.

"Ah, young love," Lorenzo thought to himself as he sat down. A few minutes later, Bianca and I came out with plenty of Smoothies and Oran berries to go around.

"Well, dig in!" I said as I handed out the plates. We all started to eat, and then it dawned on me, I still had no idea what the Soul Dew even was, and why Team Rocket was after it.

"Bianca, Lorenzo? What exactly is the Soul Dew, anyway?" I asked. Both of them sat there, stunned.

"All in good time, my boy," said Lorenzo. "For now, let's enjoy this delicious breakfast."

"All right," I said as I took another Oran berry from the pot. After we got done eating, Bianca and Lorenzo along with Latios and the two Latias escorted me to the small gazebo in the secret garden.

"This, is the Soul Dew," said Lorenzo as he pointed to a glowing blue sphere inside a small pool of water. It looked like it was alive or something.

"Wow," I said. "But, what is it actually?"

"It is said to contain the soul of a Latios," explained Bianca. I then noticed that the mother Latias was crying.

"Hey, what's wrong, Latias?" I asked, trying to comfort her.

"Latias latias, (I miss brother, he became this here Soul Dew,)" said Latias, now crying harder than before.

"Shhh shhh shhh, it's all right, Latias. We're right here," I said, trying to comfort her.

"Latias, (Thanks, Cody,)" said Latias, finally calming down.

"Aww, isn't that sweet."

We all whirl around to see…
