As Lucius finished his sentence a hurricane whipped up around the two of them and a gold form appeared before them.
"Lucius, son of the horror stricken king." The form told him.
"Save it Arceus, I'm not here to make small talk." Lucius snapped.
"You have his fire, it could be your worst enemy." Arceus replied.
"Hurry up, I need to get back to the group." Lucius replied impatiently.
"Yeah, you wouldn't want something to happen to your pregnant girlfriend." Arceus replied. "It would be tragic."
Lucius leaped at Arceus' spirit form and to Abigel's surprise he didn't just pass through him. His and Acreus slammed into the ground and started to hit each other until Arceus launched Lucius back. He landed easily on his feet while Arceus slowly got up.
"Now I see why you need me." Lucius told him. "In your current state you are reduce to having barely any power at all. So you need my body to be able to wield your full power."
"Nothing gets by you." Arceus mocked.
Emily rubbed her stomach slightly, which just started to form an unnoticeable budge, and she looked in the general direction of Lucius' location.
"Lucius, please come back safely." Emily whispered.
Cress watch as his army amassed in front of him quickly.
"Soon, no one will be able to stand in my way." Cress told himself.
His new right hand man walked up him with an hourly report.
"Sir, she still won't come out." He told him.
"She'll have to come out some time, they always do." Cress replied as he got up.
Abby looked at Lucius who had absorbed Arceus' spirit form, and she winced as Lucius' back arched to unbearable degree and he yelled out as his body temporary warped again. This has been happening for an hour now, but atleast the blizzard had calmed down.
"Lucius you're strong enough to pull through this, I know you are." Abby told him.
All of the sudden a blast of lightning ripped through the sky and struck Lucius straight in his abdomen and Abby was launched backwards. She landed on her back and she instantly blacked out.
Emily saw the lightning strike hit the peak of Mount Coronet and she felt and shift of strange energy in area around her and before her she saw a tear in the space in front rip open. It opened to a slight oval and Lucius and a girl stepped through the portal, but she felt like there was something different about him. Soon that thought was dashed as Lucius hugged her tightly and felt herself somehow become lighter, but it disappeared when she noticed the girl that followed Lucius again.
"Who is she?" Emily asked him, a little unwary.
"Don't worry, she guided me up the mountain, and I really need a shirt." Lucius told her before leaving her alone with the new girl.
"You're so lucky to have him, you know." Abby told him.
"What do you mean?" Emily asked her.
"When Arceus suggested that he was threatening your life, Lucius wailing away at him." Abby replied. "Nice baby bump."
Emily felt her stomach and glanced at Abby.
"You noticed?" Emily asked her. "Your name is?"
"I'm Abby, and sorry about kissing him." Abby replied.
As Abby walked off Emily spun around and walked back the tent that Lucius and she share. She watched as slipped on his shirt and he easily lifted her off her feet. He gently touched her stomach, and then he kissed her lips for awhile.
"Why were you worried about me?" Lucius asked her, but before she could answer he continued. "I can smell it radiating off of you."
As if she wasn't confused enough before she didn't know where to start her questions until what she saw for a split second on his back resurfaced in her mind.
"Did you get hit by the lightning that struck the peak of Mount Coronet?" Emily asked him.
"Struck by it? I conducted that little thing." Lucius replied. "Had to keep Arceus in line somehow."
"Arceus?" Emily asked him.
"Yeah we conjoined, though we are still two different people." Lucius replied.
"I would ask if this war is finally over." Emily told him. "But I know it is definitely not that easy."
"I can't completely control the full powers, remember the gem I told you about when we first met?" Lucius asked her.
"Yeah, what about it?" Emily asked him.
"I know where it is." Lucius replied.
