Chapter Nine : A Unfolding Destiny, Nix Has Something To Say
"You are the human, who was conversing with Nix." The Sylveon said coldly to Adrianna.
"She also found you wounded in the woods and took you to this place." Wanda quickly added, sensing hostility.
"Who's Nix?" Brendan asked, but his question was ignored.
"Oh? She did? Well, I am grateful for that." The Sylveon nodded, then whispered so only Brendan could hear, but Adrianna could also hear. "Brendan, do you have any idea about the whereabouts of Yveltal?"
"No, but I'm glad too see you again. This Raichu is Adrianna, a human some Meowth named Madelhari summoned." Brendan informed.
"I'm kinda tired, we should all get to sleep, it is late, we could come back to Amelia tomorrow." Shannon yawned, walking out of the rooms, Wanda, Madoka, Brunhilda, and Brendan followed, Adrianna stayed.
"Yveltal...me and my friends just went on a job request, and the mystery dungeon we went to was rumored to have Yveltal sleeping beneath it."
"I must get to that dungeon, please take me, I'm in no shape to walk."
"How about I go there tonight, I can take your word to him."
"Just tell him that I'm near, and Xerneas has turned into a terrible Pokémon." Amelia agreed.
"Ok, hold on, what's your name?" Adrianna asked as she was just about to leave.
"I'm Amelia, and Thank you for doing this." Amelia thanked, and Adrianna dipped her head in reply and left the room. The walk home was pleasant, the moon in the sky was full and covered the land in moonlight. Adrianna stopped at The Den to grab her bag, the only thing they actually used from the bag was a heal seed to cure the Poison Status Adrianna had. Now Adrianna started back on Dungeon Path unaware of the Pokémon following her until, a twig snapped. Whirling around to see who it was, it was Wanda.
"Wanda? What are you doing?"
"I told you I'd do anything to help you. If you were going to go to a mystery dungeon late at night, you should have told me! I would have come with you no matter what."
"That's not why I'm out here, apparently Amelia know Yveltal, she asked if I could go a deliver it."
"Then it's a good thing I came, what if Press and his four Ekans attack you again? What if Yveltal attacks you? You wouldn't have anyone to help you." Wanda said, now walking alongside Adrianna. Arriving back at Snake Caves, the Sevipers were still there, glaring. But considering how they were there earlier today, it took no time to get to the third and last floor.
"So you have the nerve to return. " Press snarled.
"How do we get to Yveltal?" Adrianna growled, preparing to fight.
"You kidding? That bird will kill you, suck the life out of you. Even I wouldn't push you to that kind of death."
"How do we get to Yveltal?"
"Listen you can't—"
"How do we get to Yveltal?"
"You're not going to back out of this are you? Well, you can get to him by going through the tunnel over there. It leads underground, but if you value your life, then don't go there."
"Adrianna, maybe Press is right, this is a bit irrational..."
"No, we're still going. Don't be afraid." Adrianna said, walking towards the tunnel.
"You would be afraid if you knew what you were heading into." Wanda murmured, following Adrianna. The tunnel was very steep and after a while, Adrianna and Wanda started to fall down the tunnel, until they tumbled into some kind of chamber. At the center of the chamber, there was a large oval. It was dark grey and had light grey diamonds (the shape) lined up towards the ceiling, there was also a red aura coming from it.
"Maybe we should turn back..." Wanda said nervously. Adrianna just grabbed her hand and walked towards the oval. Poking the oval, Adrianna found a seam in the oval and pulled, Wanda, who was reluctant at first, also pulled. After a couple of tries, the oval unfolded into a bird, a large red one, with glowing blue eyes, Adrianna could swear the bird was nineteen feet tall.
"You have disturbed my sleep young Pokémon. What is it you want?" Yveltal bellowed.
"You're Yveltal. Are you not?"
"Strange how you wouldn't know what I look like. If you were of this world, then you'd know what all legendaries look like. Let me have a closing look at you." Yveltal said, bending down to see her and Wanda.
"A Raichu and a Squirtle. Do you two happen to know of humans? Raichu?"
"That's one reason why we came. A Sylveon named Amelia was injured, and she asked me to tell you that Xerneas has turned terrible, whoever Xerneas is, and that she is nearby."
"I wonder why she'd ask you to do this, she isn't very trusting of strangers."
"Because my friend Brendan revealed to her, that I'm a human."
"I knew it. Brendan is also nearby, that is good to hear. If you are human as you say you are, then you have come to me at a good time."
"What role does Adrianna have to play in this world?" Wanda finally spoke.
"She is supposed to destroy DrethithClan and all the evil it's hiding. That is why I was to summon her."
"Who's Xerneas?" Adrianna asked.
"Xerneas is the leader of DrethithClan, she used to be so nice, she used to be my friend. But then a Pokémon set me up, made it look like I killed our human leader, Prin the Piplup. A Pokémon named Kinku was responsible for the death of Prin. Kinku was also DrethithClan leader at the time and offered his leadership to Xerneas, he breathed lies into Xerneas to make her who she is now. She work does scientific stuff in her labs, and I'm afraid she's brought Prin back as a monster. After two experiments, she learned the secret to bring Pokémon back to life. But I am the death Pokémon, Xerneas does not see the balance in the world has been put in danger, she is abusing her powers as the life Pokémon. All Pokémon are supposed to die at some point. Xerneas didn't see the upset balance in the future. I did, that's why I had a human summoned, so I could have the human harness the power of the Tictor Jewel, because the Tictor Jewel is the only thing that can put the world back in balance."
"Two experiments?" Wanda thoughtfully said out loud.
"Madelhari and Storm. Both of them, experiments." Yveltal growled.
"Can't you fly out of the ground and stop her right now?" Wanda asked.
"No. My energy from battling her a long time ago...it's drained, that's why I sleep here. My energy is filling back up. If you'll excuse me, I must sleep. But soon I will have the energy to battle, and when I do, I hope you'll be ready. I suggest you seek out Pokémon named Meloetta, Mewtwo, or Madelhari." Yveltal said, curling back into a oval. Wanda and Adrianna climbed back up the steep tunnel and saw Press and his Ekans had been eavesdropping.
"Wait, Raichu, you're a human?" Press asked as we passed them by, but Adrianna and Wanda spoke no words as they came out of Snake Caves.
"Adrianna, we have to tell the others." Wanda said once they reached her house.
"I'll call a meeting tomorrow." Adrianna assured walk towards the dock.
"Goodnight." Wanda called.
"Good night." Adrianna responded before running on the dock to get to The Den. Once inside The Den, she locked the door and ran up to her room. She saw the glowing green Tictor Jewel on her desk. Now that she knew how important that it was, she put it in her olive green messenger bag, and she put her bag next to her hammock bed, and lay down. She was dragged into a new dream, not Nix's dream, but she saw Nix there.
"I came to your dream before you got to come to mine." Nix informed.
"Oh, so how's your day been?"
"Not so good...listen, I have something to say."
"What?"
"After a long time of listening to you talk about DragonsDen, I have been thinking. I wish to join DragonsDen. I want to meet Wanda, Madoka, Shannon, Brunhilda, and Brendan, I wish to leave Drethith."
"You want to join us?"
"Yes. Tell me where you live, I can sneak out and travel there."
"I live in Leaflove. There's a house in front of a lake called Lake Dratini, that's Wanda's house, I live behind her house."
"On the lake?"
"Yes, there's a dock leading to my house, well actually, it's a rescue team base, but I live in it."
"What's the address?"
"2220 Charterson street."
"Ok, it should be a three day journey. You should inform your friends that I'm coming."
"Actually, I probably shouldn't, only Wanda would believe me if I said you were coming, I can tell them when you get here.
