DARKRAI FANGIRLING!
I suddenly felt a large weight lift from my shoulders, and I fell to the ground. I was sweating heavily, and panting. "Wha...the heck...just happened..."
I could hear Scarlet waking up, along with my Pokemon, but I didn't move. Everything sounded...muffled...so far away...I felt Scarlet shaking me...
Everything was a blur. The world had lost its sharpness - everything seemed to be out of focus, like when you put on someone else's glasses. The world sounded far away...I could feel that my hands were shaking, but I wasn't cold...I found it hard to breathe, every breath a struggle to get enough oxygen...
Slowly, after a while the world started to come back, or I stared to come back to it. My surroundings slowly went from blurry to clear, I could make out what Scarlet was yelling, and I could breathe again.
I was propped up against a tree, a wet cloth against my head. My insides felt like they were on fire. I tried to say something to Scarlet, who was still crying a few feet away, but all that I could manage was a small moan that was barely audible.
Scarlet looked up, and half crawled half jumped on top of me, hugging me closely.
Then, the world went dark.
I was still frozen because of Darkrai, and he was still there, hovering just as he was before. "Finally awake, are we?" I looked around. Everyone was still asleep, and Darkria still hovered there, and I was still stuck in place.
"What the heck was that?" Darkrai chuckled. "Well. Now you seem like you want help from me. That was pain. You are a human, still soft. No, you know nothing of pain. That was a nightmare. Your friend is safe - I have taken care of the one known as VibraKnife. Farewell, Ryan. We will meet again soon."
This time, I felt him leave. This time, I saw Scarlet and my Pokemon wake up. And this time, I saw Maya walking towards us, down Route 3. As soon as she saw me, she quickened her pace, raising an eyebrow at Scarlet, just as she had done with Lilly.
"Ryan. Didn't expect to meet you so soon. Where is Lilly and N?" It took a moment to come to terms with had just happened, and process the information. "Seafoam city..." I was still breathing pretty hard, and could feel the beads of sweat running down my forehead.
"What happened here? Looks like a you guys decided to all take a nap." Scarlet was up now, walking over to us. She stuck her hand out, which Maya shook before speaking. "My names Scarlet. Nice to meet you." "I'm Maya. Likewise."
I slowly returned my Pokemon to their Pokeballs. I was still trying to decipher what had happened in the last hour or so. Why had Darkrai felt the need to show me pain? Did that mean that I would be experiencing it in the future?
If I had a lot of questions before, I had even more now...
We headed slowly to Seafoam city, not really talking. When we got there, we couldn't find N or Lilly anywhere. And that's when all heck broke loose.
