Back on the attack with the story. Now I wasn't expecting to write this part like this so please forgive me, but someone sent the idea, and I decided to use it.
Enjoy
It was getting more and more troublesome to sleep at nights. I couldn't place my finger on it, but its been a chill down my spine ever since those legendary dogs. Not to mention, the fact I still hurt Kirara, lingering in my girls keep saying I'm over thinking it, and that I needed to relax. I kept wanting to think that, believe it, but that haunting feeling just wouldn't leave.
Usually after long nights of exhaustion I would finally pass out, dreaming of nothing, only falling asleep and waking up.
Tonight was no different as I stayed up past everyone else, and pass out. There was something different about tonight though. I dreamt in what must have been weeks. It was dark as usual, but I felt the presence of another being. It's voice soft and comforting, the voice feminine and angelic, whispering into my ear loving nothings. An invisible force comforted me, it feeling soft and addictive as I couldn't help but embrace it further.
" I love you," it would whisper into my ear." Stay with me, don't leave me, my dear. I'll stay by your side, and never leave you. Just stay." I let it embrace me, the force only increasing in comfort.
It felt as if lips grazed mine, slowly pressing against them as the comfort increased. I reached out to the force, feeling nothing but more love, more comfort, the addictiveness only growing. I felt the graze of lips again, but didn't hesitate as I placed mines to it. It's like I could feel shock before it shifted back into its joyous cuddle.
I suddenly began to feel the force leaving me. The softness disappearing, the comfort fading. I tried to reach for it, but it was out of reach yet still close.
" Don't leave me," it said, its voice now echoing." Dezmin, Dezmin." It slowly faded to a whisper before silence.
I awoke without warning, a trace of fear still lingering in the air. The tent was empty, the sounds outside silent. Worry filled me, the original sounds of the girls awake, replaced by dead silence. I quickly made my way outside, the sight horrifying me. The trees, once luscious and green, now burnt and fallen. The ground held many craters, both covered in ash and blood. The sky carried few clouds, some dark, the scent in the air carrying a thunderstorm that just passed.
I looked in the craters...the girls in each one?! I ran to each of them, checking their pulses, a soft pulse still there. I ran to my pack, grabbing it before sprinting back. The injuries were minor, but could cause major damage later if not treated. I took out the potions and bandages from past pokemon centers. Without hesitation I began to treat each of their wounds, carefully examining them, making sure I didn't miss a spot.
It took half an hour, but once done I noticed something...Kirara was missing. I checked the perimeter, no trace of her being found. I could hear the girls began to stir, quickly making my way back to them. Each of them stood slowly, all of them releasing grunts of pains. I quickly grabbed all of them, giving them the tightest hug I could.
" What happened," I asked, the worry spilling into my voice. The girls exchanged glances before Ariel stepped foward.
" Suicune, Entei, and Raikou returned while you slept last night." That was highly unlikely, I wouldn't have missed all the commotion.
" Suicune kept you under her spell, while they battled us." Sasha added on." Despite having both Dia and Palkia, the element of surprise was our downfall." That still didn't answer the most important question on my mind.
" What of Kirara? What happened to her?!" I asked, my voice became more worried. It looked like the question scared the girls, all of them flinching as I asked it. They exchanged nervous glances, the long silence only increasing the tension and fear of what happened.
" Babe," Dia said, starting off." The legendary dogs were going to kill us, so...Kirara, she...sacrificed herself." My eyes widened, tears stinging them.
" She was captured?" I asked, hoping that I was wrong. They all nodded.
" They said if you didn't surrender yourself to them, they'll kill her." I shot up, looking for signs that it was all a joke. Dia held a serious expression that was becoming more and more common since Palkia's warning.
I fell to my hands and knees, looking at the ground as the tears fell, staining it for a second before it vanished into the earth. The last time I felt the need to cry, was when I was admitting my feelings to Kirara, when I told her I loved her.
All that hurt I felt right then and there. My heart was aching, my mind racing. My options where at an end, only one remaining.
" Where?" That was all I needed to know now. I could feel the worry grow, the girls shaking slightly.
" They told us, the cave at the base of the mountain west of here," Asuna said. I closed my eyes, inhaling, exhaling.
I walked to the tent, grabbing Obsidian, and my trench coat. I threw on the coat, strapping Obsidian carefully. I dug into my bag, grabbing throwing daggers Siphon gave me, adding poison bombs from Sacha, placing them carefully in separate pockets. I pulled the tent flap back, all the girls standing around it, each with worry on their face.
" Dezmin, where are you going?" Sasha asked. I strapped my shoes, looking up with the legendary ice stare. The girls took a step back, my anger flaring.
" Im giving those dogs exactly what they want, me." I was immediately attacked with protests, all of which I did my best to sound out.
I grabbed a smoke pellet, dropping it before disappearing into the forest. The girls pleas could be heard from behind me, but it was all in vain, I had to save her. I ran, hard, the sun close to its top peak as I pushed forward. The only sounds I could hear was the whistle of the wind, and my cloak flapping in the wind.
I kept to the shadows of the trees, jumping or ducking from branches, the trees only becoming thicker and closer together. I dodged with ease, as the mountain base neared closer and closer. I increased my speed as the light smell of blood reached my nose. I drew Obsidian, as I broke the edge of the bushes, a cave entering my view. The cave was the least of my attention, as what walked out of it caught it.
Suicune walked out, the same sultry grin she had was still there. I only glared at her, my eyes filled with rage and anger. Raikou and Entei were next, Kirara on Entei's back, her eyes dull and half lidded. A deep cut was through her leg, a smaller one across her gut. I clenched Obsidian's hilt tighter, the blade practically shaking in my grip.
" This is a low blow, even for legendaries like you," I said with so much anger. Suicune's smile changed to one of accomplishment, and an evil grin in the mixture.
" It gets the job done, and brings you one step closer, my love." I only narrowed my eyes, drifting them towards Kirara and back to Suicune. I sheathed Obsidian, folding my arms as I put my weight on my left leg.
" You got what you wanted, but I heal her first and foremost before I go." Suicune let out a laugh, her eyes narrowing back at mines. She gave a toothy grin, looking me directly in the eyes, trying to bare past a wall no one ever could.
" I don't think you're really made out to make arrangements, Dezmin." I shifted my weight to the other leg, giving her the legendary stare, the water dog pokemon shivering slightly before she clicked her tongue." Fine." She uttered.
Entei brought Kirara closer to me, laying her down in front of me." Don't be to long Dezy-san," she said before walking back to her sisters. I took out my last salve, covering all major wounds, only leaving the bruises which I wrapper diligently.
The colors in Kirara's eyes returned, her paw stretching upward to the sky. I quickly grabbed it, turning to her as she let out a groan.
" Dezmin," she said, her voice kinda hoarse. I could only look at her in this weak state, with nothing else I could do. I placed a hand against her cheek, her paw slowly grabbing it grunting from the pain. It hurt me to see her like this, the tears stinging the back of my eyes.
" Don't move anymore, it'll be fine." She went to open her mouth, but I connected mines to hers, stopping her protest in its tracks. I pulled back, my heart now raging in pain as I stood and turned to Suicune. I put on my best face, as I walked closer to her.
" Come Dezy-san, Arceus grows ever more impatient to see you." I lifted myself onto her back, looking back at Kirara with so much guilt in my heart. I shot an aura sphere into the sky before turning back to Suicune.
" Lets go. Better keep our ' great one' waiting," I said, adding so much sarcasm to the name. Suicune ignored it, turning back to the cave, and walking into it. I looked back one last time, my eyes never leaving Kirara's motionless body.

The cave was actually a tunnel, winding through the mountain to not cause a collapsion. The dogs grew sore, the fight still taking its tale on them as well. They stopped at field, too perfect for our time. The grass was a perfect deep green, the flowers splashed in magnificent colors. A small lake, perfect for drinking was just north-east, a shady tree right beside it. The soft sweet smell of honey and fresh water, filling my nose..The three legendaries took refuge under the tree, as I took the farthest spot away from them, lying in the fields. I looked up at the sky, resting my hands behind my head.
' I had to protect them, even if it cost my own life to do it. I was the alpha, and it was my job to make sure they stayed safe. I just...felt the need to always protect them, even when I reached my limit. I risked it all because I loved each and every last one of them. I didn't want to see any of them hurt, which is why I gave myself up. Arceus can do whatever she wishes to me...along as they stay safe.'
" Dezmin," came a soft voice. I sighed in annoyance before turning to see Entei lying next to me. I narrowed my eyes, turning back towards the sky.
" What do you want?" I asked, the irritation flooding through my tone. Entei flinched at my words, a hurt expression actually on her face. My eyes kept their hard glare, my legendary stare mere seconds from reappearing.
" I just wanted to talk," she said, a little softer. I looked at her out the corner of my eye, turning myself sideways to her.
" About what?" I asked, arching a brow. Entei lowered her gaze for a second before raising it back up to mine. I always thought of Entei as the brave, confident one, like her sisters, but she was like a child. Shy, giggles a lot, doesn't take many things seriously, and is playful too much.
" I wanted to know...what your relationship with those girls were." I narrowed my eyes again, my fist clenching behind my head.
" None of your fucking business," I said loudly." It's not like I'll see them again," I mumbled this time. Entei grew angry, but it paled in comparison to mine. Her anger wouldn't last long, mines would.
Why does she care? She got what she wanted, and yet she still wants me to suffer more. I could feel myself, grinding my teeth behind my lips in irritated anger.
" Im only trying to comfort you!" Entei growled. I brushed the comment off, returning a comment twice as vicious.
" Yeah...well you only deepen the wound." I shot her the coldest stare that made her shiver in her spot.
" Entei enough," Suicune said, walking up behind the fire dog." Arceus is close by, go rest. I'll watch him," she said, giving me a quick glance. I only sighed, turning over back to the sky, shutting my eyes.
I heard as Entei stood and left, and Suicune laying next to me." Dezy-san, we only want to love you, make you our champion, our lover." I grunted, looking at her with such a rage filled expression. Suicune's smile only grew, her sadistic nature showing in her eyes.
" Dezmin, you know what comes next," Suicune said. Sadly, I did. I knew Suicune wouldn't want me seeing the path into The Great Hall, and there was only two options on how to do it. One, knock me unconscious, or two, put me under a spell. I knew Suicune didn't want to hurt me, soo...
Her eyes flashed pink again, my vision becoming once again hazy, my emotions becoming mixed. Once again Suicune became the most gorgeous pokemon I could see. Her face, her body, her grace, all of it stunning once more. I moved towards her, cupping her face in my hands. Suicune smiled at me, her eyes a magnificent crimson.
" Suicune, I..." She planted her lips to mine once more, me eagerly accepting the affection. She pushed her weight onto me, laying me back under her. She broke the kiss, looking at me with half lidded eyes. I had no control over my body, as my hands roamed over her body.
" Dezy-san, we are almost there, just a little longer, then we shall become mates," she said lustfully. Her voice was so familiar, so inviting, so soft. Her warm embrace just made me want to stay in it longer, to hold her even closer. She stood and the feeling of having her gone was so familiar, that it all clicked. She gave me the dream, the softness, the warm embrace, the love I felt...all from her.
' What does it mean?'
' Its love.'
' Its a ruse.'
' She's being kind and gentle.'
' Or, using us for her gain.'
I felt myself climbing on Suicune's back as my inner thoughts continued their arguments. I nuzzled into her fur, the softness caressing me, my mind going blank. I just wanted to sleep forever, with Suicune, only her.
" Sleep," she whispered.
-XOXOXOX-
It was a while before I awoke as the sun was setting...below us. I looked around, noticing I was in a city that made all other beauty, pale in comparison, except Suicune of course. The buildings illuminated in a golden hue, the streets a mesmerizing silver, pristine and clean. The lights lit the streets, shining a soft orange. The pokemon that walked through were all happy, pure, and uncorrupted, no longer having bodies, hearts, and minds to.
In front of us a giant chapel stood, reaching higher than any mountain, wider then any river, and more luxurious than the city behind us. The street was now a hidden gold, the lights around us, bright white, lighting the path ever more.
" Welcome to The Great Hall," Raikou said with a sly smirk, towards me. I only looked in awe as I hugged Suicune's body tighter.
We reached the door, it being at least a hundred feet tall, spanding a hundred feet in width. The great door than proceeded to open, a bright light illuminating from inside. Slowly the four of us entered, the doors shutting behind us.
I shielded my eyes from the great light as we grew closer until it suddenly disappeared. I removed my hand, looking down the hall towards the other end. Suicune, Entei, and Raikou bowed, each in sync saying," Great One." A smile crept across her face, her white hair flowing ever so angelically. I only looked, no emotion on my face...clearly that is.
" Arceus," I whispered. Her smile grew bigger, her perfectly white teeth appearing.
" Welcome Dezmin."
Not going to give a long ending, so...
Read, Review, Enjoy
