Sidney flew down into a small run down town in the middle of nowhere. The town's name was Mineral Valley due to its success with the mining industry. Once he got there he walked down to the local market to see if he could find anything useful. He got there and it was pretty empty, one item that he saw did catch is attention.
"Huh?... what is this? Steel type repellant?... Why the hell would you need this!?" Sidney said
"Oh you can never be to careful when dealing with steel types young man!" A merchant said
"Well alright then..." Sidney said as he walked away "Fucking weirdo!" Sidney thought
Sidney kept on walking through town what he saw were a few posters with messages saying. "No steel types allowed in town!" Sidney ripped one off a billboard and stuck it in his pocket. He headed into the pokemon center just for a quick check up. Everything was normal until he saw a big crowd just outside of the pokemon center.
"Huh I better go check it out..." Sidney thought. What Sidney saw absolutely shocked him. There were two girls having a pokemon battle, but the pokemon one of them used scared Sidney.
The two girls stared at each other with a great amount of intensity. There was a static in the air and not a nice one. There was tension anger and regret that filled the atmosphere.
"Elizabeth what do you want with my key!" A girl with long red hair and burning red eyes yelled.
"I just want to give it to my husband! Is that wrong Scarlet?" Elizabeth yelled
Scarlet gritted her teeth and clenched her fist. "Altaria use moon blast again!" The big fluffy dragon charged at Elizabeth's pokemon. It flew above it and fired a ball of pink energy.
Elizabeth smirked "Darkrai! Block it!" The ruler of nightmares held out its hand and blocked moon blast without effort. Darkrai flew up fast and grabbed Altaria by the neck.
Altaria struggled for a breath of air. Darkrai's grip tightened suddenly a blue energy formed in its other hand as it shot it at Altaria. Ice formed around the dragon's body as it fell to the ground and went limp.
Scarlet returned her beloved Altaria and put her hand on her chest as if Elizabeth was about to do something horrible. She prepared herself for the worst, but was shocked with she saw Elizabeth walk away.
"Hey Scarlet there's too many people around to steal your key! But watch out when you're alone you'll suffer unimaginable pain!" Elizabeth laughed as she walked away. She held up a black orb that sucked Darkrai into it like a pokeball.
"Hey Darkrai remember the mission..." Elizabeth said
"Sorry... but I've just recently reverted back into a pokemon I want to test my abilities" Darkrai said
"Don't worry you'll get the chance to actually test your abilities when we find Drake Dragon, Sidney Nivermoor or Morgan Monty." Elizabeth said
"When I get the chance to fight the chosen warriors... Drake Dragon... Sidney Nivermoor... and Morgan Monty... Why did she have to get the void reincarnated in her..." Darkrai said
"Look we don't know why the void choses who it choses but we have to find it kill its vessel in order to extract the void." Elizabeth said "That's what Justin wants and I'll give it to him because I love that man with all my heart."
"If I wasn't bound by the red chains I would kill you in an instant Elizabeth..." Darkrai said in a serious tone.
"Oh I know!" Elizabeth laughed
Sidney saw Scarlet fall to her knees and weep. She cried as her heart ached and burned with pain. Sidney walked over to her and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Hey uh... there's no shame to losing to a legendary pokemon." Sidney said
Scarlet looked up at the man holding her shoulder "You wouldn't understand... That girl wants by key... The leader of the Black Flame Clan wants my key..."
"Uh... why don't you just give them your key then..." Sidney said
"You're an idiot... but I can't blame you... you don't know what the keys are..." Scarlet said
"Well I'd love to talk about these keys over a few drinks! how bout it?" Sidney said
Sidney found himself at a local dinner with a crying girl right beside him. Her entire outfit was mysterious. She wore a long black cloak that had a white fur on the lining. She also had long red hair that ran from her head down to her torso.
"So um... ok... well my name's Sidney Nivermoor its nice to meet you" Sidney said
"Oh well my name is Scarlet Witch..." Scarlet said
"So you said something about people wanting to take your key am I right?" Sidney asked
"Yeah..." Scarlet said
"Well what does the key unlock?" Sidney asked
"Well it's complicated..." Scarlet said
"Hey look I've got time why don't you explain it to me." Sidney said
"Well ok but its not a story that everyone believes. You see when our world was nothing but a small amount of matter. Arceus the first pokemon made the entire world. He used a massive amount of energy. Unfortunately for the law of creation states there is always going to be an opposite and equal reaction from which is created." Scarlet said
"Ok but what does this have to do with your key?" Sidney said
"Well when Arceus made the world the energy that it took, acidently created a another dimension opposite from ours... Because Arceus' intentions were pure and for beauty... the opposite dimension had the traits of destruction. This dimension was called the void..." Scarlet said
"Ok but when will you get to the point." Sidney said
"Im getting to that... anyway human beings were never an intended part of this world. Arceus knew he had to keep the void at bay in order to prevent it from destroying everything he loved. He sealed away the one entity that controlled the void inside of a being placed higher than pokemon... He made human beings for the sole purpose of keeping the balance in order." Scarlet said
"Ok well um... ok but I still want to know what your key thing?" Sidney said
"When Arceus made humans he trapped the void's entity in a person's aura which could only be unlocked by 5 different keys. These keys were also trapped within a few chosen people. I just happen to be one..." Scarlet said
"Well to be honest this sound like a bunch of bull how do you know that you're a key holder?" Sidney asked
"Well the keys each have different affects depending which key each person holds. Mine allows me to live forever. But that doesn't mean I can't die I can still die of well being shot or stabbed." Scarlet said
"Ok then... so why did that girl with the Darkrai want your key?" Sidney asked
"She want my key as well as the other keys to unlock the void inside of the current vessel. She wants to give the void to her leader. If Justin got the power of the void he'd be unstoppable... I don't even think Arceus could defeat him." Scarlet said
"Here!" Sidney said as he handed Scarlet a drink.
"Oh thanks..." Scarlet said
"Look I can tell that you're distressed how about we have a pokemon battle?" Sidney said
"Oh well... about that I don't really like battling..." Scarlet said
"Oh I understand what do you like to do?" Sidney asked
"I don't have any hobbies... I've been on this earth for a very long time... I've given up on having many things..." Scarlet said
"Ok well how about we go walk for a bit and enjoy the town we're both in!" Sidney said with a smile
"I... I'd like that..." Scarlet said
The scenery was nice and the air was crisp. The blue sky lightened the mood of the each conversation. Sidney quickly noticed how beautiful Scarlet's kind and shy personality was. She laughed and cried at his crude jokes. Her smile brought this never ending happiness that he wanted forever.
Scarlet loosened up a bit and told Sidney that it was her dream to find what she's really looking for in life. Sidney understood as he always had a hole in his heart. A hole that couldn't filled with simple glory or victory. A hole that needed to be filled something that he needed to work towards.
"Hey Sidney why do you think this town hates steel types?" Scarlet asked as she held a poster in her hands.
"I honestly have no clue. They'd hate the champion from my home region ha!" Sidney said
"Huh why?" Scarlet asked
"Well I'm from Hoenn the champion is Steven he specializes in steely type pokemon." Sidney said
"Oh you're from Hoenn too how... cool..." Scarlet said "So I was wondering Sidney... would you like to have a pokemon battle?" Scarlet asked
"Oh sure! How about we just do a 1v1!" Sidney said
"I'd like that..." Scarlet said
Sidney found an empty battlefield for the both of them. Scarlet's heart was pounding with excitement. A small smirk appeared on her face as she grabbed an ultraball that was on her trainer belt.
"Ok are you ready Scarlet?" Sidney yelled
"Uh huh..." Scarlet said as she let out a small blush. She threw out her ultraball. A brilliant white light came out forming a blue bird which was covered in cotton.
"So its the Altaria I saw before..." Sidney thought "Ok come on out Salamance!" Sidney yelled. Salamance landed on the field and let out a mighty battle cry.
"Huh... that's a mega stone... well this should be interesting..." Scarlet thought.
"Ok when ever your ready Scarlet!" Sidney yelled
"Ok Sidney! Get ready! Altaria use dragon breath now!" Scarlet yelled. Altaria charged up the attack and fired it towards Salamance. The beam of purple energy came after Salamance fast giving it no chance to dodge.
An explosion was made, the wind that was created from the explosion forced Sidney to cover his face. "Salamance use fly now!" Sidney yelled
Salmance flew up into the air. "Good now use repeated dragon pulse!" Sidney yelled. Salamance fired multiple balls of energy at Altaria making it break into a nervous panic.
Scarlet let out a small smirk at Sidney's attempt of an attack. She licked her lips sending shivers up her spine. "Altaria no more messing around block with dragon breath!"
It was as if Altaria had turned into an entirely different pokemon. Its movements were fast and slick. It darted around the battle field blocking each attack with its own dragon breath. The entire field was lit up with billions of explosions. That almost looked like fireworks.
Scarlet's heart was pounding faster than ever before. "Altaria use dragon dance!" Altaria flew back and raised its stats with dragon dance. "Ok Altaria use moon blast now!"
Sidney saw the powerful attack form at Altaria's mouth. He felt nervous and scared as Salamance couldn't do a single thing to a fairy type attack. Sidney felt his entire body heat up. White flames formed around his right eye.
Salamance's skin colour began to change into a deep obsidian. Salamance could feel mountains of energy flow through its entire body. "Salamance block with flamethrower!"
The two attacks made contact creating a huge explosion that shook the entire town. The heat made molten lava around the battlefield. Sidney and Scarlet held their breath as the air quickly became suffocating.
Salamance flew in and grabbed Altaria. It threw Altaria into the molten lava which filled its entire body with intense burning pain.
"Hey Scarlet how do you like my dragon force technique!" Sidney yelled
Scarlet licked her lips. She let out a smirk that made Sidney nervous. She snapped her fingers once Altaria heard its trainer's command it flew up high. Before Sidney knew it a massive moon blast blocked the sun's light.
Suddenly everything went black after what felt like a few minutes Sidney opened up his eyes. He saw Scarlet above him. She had a huge smile on her face. Her smile was like a ray of sunshine that filled an emptiness in Sidney's heart.
"Hey what happened?" Sidney asked
"I won silly!" Scarlet said
"Ok but how'd you win?" Sidney asked
"I countered your dragon force silly! I know how to beat dragon force cause I can use it too!" Scarlet said
"What... you can use it too?" Sidney said
"Yup! Sidney remember I said that I can live forever! I'm the original dragon force user!" Scarlet said "I'm basically your ancestor!"
"Ok... well let me rest for a bit..." Sidney said as he passed out.
Later that evening Sidney laid down in his bed and thought about what happened durning that battle.
"What did I see? I remember seeing Scarlet use moon blast then everything went black after that... "
"Well don't worry we'll have more time to discuss what happened for now just sleep!" Scarlet said with a big smile. Sidney saw that within his mind as he quietly went to sleep.
