Wendy sat there in a hallway, even though her enhanced senses would allow her to hear everything within a 1000m radius. She couldn't hear a single thing, all she could hear in her mind were the screams of Winston Star, her best friend. She could feel the cooling blood soaked in her clothes, the more the blood cooled the more it hurt to simply exist.
Tears streamed down Wendy's face as she sat in front of a door. Behind that door was her best friend, behind the door she could smell many different nurses, doctors and even surgeons. But Wendy had a pit in her stomach that was telling her, Winston would not make it.
Wendy lifted up her hand and ran her fingers along the area Winston nibbled on her ear. She could still feel the bite marks embedded in her ears, she smiled and blushed, but quickly broke back into tears.
Wendy heard running feet quickly headed towards her direction. She didn't bother to look as she could only burry her face into her hands. She felt a light tap on her shoulder, she looked over to see Sealeous, Ultima and Mei'li standing there. Ultima and Mei'li were both drenched in sweat as they had just come out of their battle.
"Wendy, we heard what happened, and we rushed as soon as we heard the news," Mei'li said.
"Wendy, I'm so sorry... If we meet Team Scramble in the tournament we'll take them down for you. That's a promise!" Ultima yelled. He put his hand over his aching heart and looked Wendy in the eye. "I can not let someone harm such a broken person! I will get Alpha for you Wendy!".
"Ultima, don't be foolish... If you meet Team Scramble in the tournament, if you meet them on the battlefield. Please don't fight for me... b-b-ut... fi-ight for W-Winston," Wendy cried.
Ultima stood up and pulled Wendy into his body. He held the back of her head and pushed her right into his chest. Wendy could hear Ultima's calm beating heart. She began to pour all of her emotions into Ultima's chest, her cries echoed through the halls. Ultima quickly turned his head to his brother Sealeous.
"Sealeous, go find Team Scramble right now, and shut this project down for good," Ultima whispered.
"Right!" Sealeous yelled.
Mei'li wrapped her body around Wendy's body. Both her and Ultima smushed Wendy in between the two of them. It was sort of their way of comforting her. Wendy enjoyed the comforting hugs, but it just wasn't the same as the hugs Winston would give.
Wendy looked over to see both Ivan and Amity now standing in the hallway. Amity had a stream of tears falling down her face, she walked up to Wendy and fell to her knees. She looked up at Wendy, and simply could not hold back her own tears.
"Wendy... is Winston really dea-..." Amity could barely talk. She covered her mouth as Wendy broke her eye contact with her.
Wendy fell to her knees as well she held Amity in her arms, it was as if both girls could tell how the other felt. They could both feel how much they were hurting inside.
Sealeous was racing through the halls, he knew that Team Scramble's battle with Winston had recently finished, so they couldn't have gone far. Sealeous looked around many different corners without luck. He went through multiple rooms, and even when drenched in sweat he would stop at nothing to find Team Scramble.
There was just one more place he hadn't checked, and the room just so happened to be the royal tournament viewing room. As Sealeous stood in that elevator many thoughts were running through his mind.
"What should I even do when we meet face to face?... Will they even remember who I am?... And what am I supposed to do against Thor?...".
The elevator finally reached the royal tournament viewing room. The elevator door slowly opened up, and standing there was Thor, of course Team Scramble was standing there as well. Thor, Alpha and Beta all turned their heads towards Sealeous. As the proud prince stood there he walked out of the elevator to confront everyone in the room before him.
"Father, what a pleasant surprise!" Beta happily said.
"Father, what are you doing here?" Alpha spitefully asked. "You abandoned us! If it wasn't for Master Thor, we'd be dead!".
"Brother... please don't be so cruel to Father," Beta said.
"Oh Sealeous, your children have been quite the blessing to take care of," Thor smiled.
"Hands off Thor! Both you and I know that they should have never existed! Creating artificial life is morally wrong! Creating new species through genetics is wrong! Alpha... Beta... both of you were never meant to exist," Sealeous said.
"That is where you are wrong Sealeous. These two were meant to exist! Think about the applications of what they can do! Think of the combat abilities! These two wonderful children that you built can replicate the DNA of any pokemorph, if they see any kind of attack wether it's a grifta attack or not they can replicate it perfectly! They have the ability to transform into any kind of pokemorph as well making them perfect for assassinations!" Thor yelled.
"But that isn't why the kingdom of Aether made the 'Ditto Project'. The scientists of Aether made them to heal, with the ability to recreate an exact copy of DNA of any individual they could make organs that would not be rejected by the body, the medical applications would be limitless. But as they began to grow up, both of them began to show violence tendencies, we know what they're capable of in battle, that's why we have to stop their development. And because of you one of my best friends is dead," Sealeous said.
Sealeous put his hands together, a thick white fog erupted from his body. The palm of his hands begun to glow a thick layer of ice began to form in the palm of his hands. "Welcome back my friend,".
Sealeous summoned out instead of his usual frosty katana, he brought out a weapon that Thor was much accustomed to seeing. Within Sealeous' hands was a two handed broad sword that was covered in a thick layer of ice.
Thor stepped forward held his hand out in front of Sealeous. Electricity began to form and spark around his arm, it made its way to his hand to form into a bright orb of electricity. The orb soon formed into a mighty staff, but at both ends of the staff were two hammer heads.
"If it is a duel you wish to have, you shall have your duel with me!" Thor valiantly yelled. "But just to let you know, this is a declaration for war. Do you truly want that Prince Sealeous?".
"It's your fault that the woman I love is crying!" Sealeous yelled. He charged right in without thinking he reeled back to swing his sword.
Thor quickly blocked sending sparks everywhere setting the furniture in the room ablaze. The windows within the room busted open sending shockwaves throughout the entire tournament. The two royals were deadlocked with both of their weapons intertwined in a complex position.
Sealeous was the one to break the tension as he jumped up into the air, and angrily forced his sword down. Thor once blocked again, but this time the entire stadium tilted with Sealeous' sword strike. Thor grabbed Sealeous by the throat and threw him out of the royal room. He jumped out of the window, reeling back his weapon he spun around mid air, with one quick powerful strike he smashed Sealeous into the ground.
Thor begun to fall towards Sealeous a large electric aura surrounded his body. A thick black storm cloud appeared right above his head, and a massive lightning bolt struck down right where he had thrown Sealeous.
Sealeous quickly stood up and held his frosty broadsword in front of his body to block that lightning bolt. But as soon as the lightning bolt made contact it felt as if Sealeous was being crushed by the world itself. His legs were sinking into the ground, he looked around and saw all the shocked faces of the audience around him. But this wasn't the time to be worried about the people.
Sealeous could hear large cracks from both his bones and the broadsword that was literally crumbling in his hands. He still had one foot on the ground, but he was on one knee trying desperately to push back the attack.
Sealeous' body was surrounded in a bright white aura. Imbued with the power of extreme speed he quickly jumped back to avoid the lighting bolt. But unfortunately his broadsword had crumbled away in that time. He put his hands back together to summon out his frost katana.
Thor floated down gently. "Please don't tell me your going to use such a childish weapon against me,". Thor withdrew his weapon and this time summoned out two separate hammers, he got ready in another fighting stance.
Sealeous did the same, but this time he took a stance much similar to Wendy's stance. Both of them charged right in, Thor quickly swung, but Sealeous ducked under the attack. Sealeous forced his elbow into Thor's stomach, but the mighty king of Null quickly forced his hammer down on young prince's head.
Sealeous quickly blocked the attack sending sparks everywhere. He forced his blade upward scratching Thor on the cheek only to be met with a powerful blow to his stomach. Sealeous was sent flying, and when got up, he began to cough up large amounts of blood.
"Oh please don't tell me that this is all the first prince of Aether can handle. You are still far too young to understand the more important matters at hand. I don't regret killing your grandparents!" Thor laughed.
"Y-y-you what! Don't you dare speak about my damn grandparents! They were killed in the field of battle during the last war!" Sealeous yelled.
"Yes by me!" Thor laughed.
"H-h-how dare you!" Sealeous yelled. He quickly jumped up into the air his body erupted into a pillar of icy fog. His hands began to glow a beautiful glow, he slammed his fists right into the ground creating a white and blue dome that quickly expanded out from his inner core.
Thor's eyes widened as his entire body was engulfed his orb, he could feel an unbearable frozen chill run through his veins. Each and every living cell in his body was freezing and dying off. His skin formed into large blisters and begun to pop releasing tons of blood onto the ground. A cold chill was sent through the entire stadium, as every piece of metal within the stadium had a thick layer of frost form on it.
(-0-)
Ultima, Mei'li, Wendy, Chara, Owen, Amity and Ivan all saw the metal around them quickly gain a thick layer of frost around them. Everyone except for Ultima and Mei'li were in awe, but Ultima and Mei'li knew quite well that this was Sealeous' frost daze attack. The two of them only knew that this could be trouble, as Sealeous only ever uses that attack if the situation calls for it.
"Everyone, this is bad let's all get onto the air ships to take us down, and out of the stadium," Ultima said.
"Yes we must all go right away. You see this frost building up on the walls, this is all due to Sealeous, he may be battling Thor right now in a serious fight," Mei'li said.
"Alright we understand," Chara, Owen, Ivan and Amity all said. But Wendy stayed quiet, she only had her head down.
"Hey come on Wendy, you're in on this too right?" Chara asked.
"No... I'm not going with you guys. I'm staying here with Winston," Wendy said.
"Wendy, we understand your mindset right now, but this situation is dire. The last time Sealeous and Thor went all out against each other they nearly destroyed the great forest!" Ultima yelled.
"Then you go... I'll be fine," Wendy said.
"Urgh fine whatever! Come on everyone let's go," Ultima said. Everyone nodded and quickly ran off. Ivan however stayed behind with Wendy as he had something to say.
Ivan walked up to Wendy and held her by the chin. He looked right into her sparkling silver eyes, and with a stern look. "Wendy you're too arrogant for your own good,". He quickly pushed Wendy away and ran off to join everyone else.
As Ivan was running down the halls he was stopped by Ultima. "Hey Ivan, you go ahead I'm going to help my brother in the battle he's currently in,".
"Hey that's all good with me!" Ivan said.

The frosty fog quickly dissipated. Sealeous was on his knees, he was barely able to move after using by far his most powerful grifta attack. He looked forward to see Thor on the ground, but The king was supporting himself up with one knee. There were clear signs of frostbite scattered across Thor's flesh, and he was covered in multiple cuts that ran across his body.
Small bits of ice were darted along Thor's cheek bones and his chest, but other than that he seemed fine. He stood back up proudly and held out his hand a large wall of electricity formed behind his back, the wall soon turned into orbs of electricity. Those orbs soon started to orbit around Thor, as they all slowly turned into many different weapons, the weapons were many different kinds of hammers, axes, swords and spears.
He jumped up into the air and forced his hand down, along with the many weapons that surrounded his body. Sealeous only had the strength to look up after using his grifta attack, those weapons were closing in and he knew that Thor's attack would deal him his final blow.
Suddenly a flash of white light appeared right in front of Sealeous which caught him off guard.
"Righteous Seal!" Ultima yelled. A large white and gold transparent dome formed around Ultima and his brother. Once the dome was finished Ultima held out both his hands, and Thor's weapons made contact with the dome.
The dome bent a stretched in and out from each individual weapon hitting it. Ultima was on his knees as he could feel the burning pain of every weapon as if they were entering his arms. As each weapon hit the dome, it felt as if Ultima's arms were getting gouged by red hot knives.
"Ultima, what are you doing?! Righteous Seal will only wear you out!" Sealeous yelled.
"Urggh... Y-you're one t-to t-talk using Frost Daze, an attack th-that leaves you unable to move after using it," Ultima struggled to get out.
Once the raining weapons lightened up and finally dissipated Ultima released Righteous Seal. The dome slowly faded away, Ultima was now standing face to face against Thor, who clearly was pissed off at him for interrupting the fight.
"Hey, Thor what's up?" Ultima said.
Thor stayed silent due to the situation he was in, not because he was scared, but because he knew that Ultima was cunning when it came to word play. He stood there and got into a more formal stance instead of his usual fighting stance.
"Um... so I'm sure the audience here would like to know why you, The King of Null is fighting my Brother the 1st Prince of Aether. I'm sure there's a logical explanation, and I'm sure there's a way to resolve the issue here," Ultima cautiously said.
"Your idiot of a brother over there is trying to stop me from turning your experiment, 'The Ditto Project' into the strongest team in existence," Thor said.
"Um... I see, well Thor, this is a matter that should be discussed in a royal meeting. When should we hold the royal meeting?" Ultima asked.
"That won't be necessary, I can't let foolish naive children go unpunished. Sealeous has been hopping from kingdom to kingdom where he thinks he's helping out the people, but really he's just creating a massive mess for the respective kingdom royals to clean up," Thor explained.
"But helping people in need is the right thing to do!" Sealeous proudly yelled.
"Ha don't make me laugh, not when the culture in Null is, 'The strong thrive while the weak die and get crushed'. By inputting your ideals in my kingdom, you have single handedly brought rise to endless protests and pointless murders. The suicide rate in my kingdom has nearly tripled after your team started doing their so called 'help'. Sealeous, you must learn your place as you are still only a prince and not the king of Aether, but if you step out of bounds one more time you can bet that there's going to be a war on our hands," Thor walked out of Ultima and Sealeous' sight. He headed over to god knows were only leaving Ultima and Sealeous much to think about.

Wendy was still sitting right in front of the door that Winston was being operated on. The tears had stopped falling for now, but the feeling in her heart was empty, it felt like her heart was wilting away. A few hours had gone by and still nothing, but she was determined to be as close to Winston as much as possible.
The door slowly opened up and when Wendy looked up there she saw a doctor who was covered in blood. He kneeled down and handed Wendy, Winston's wallet. The doctor said a few words to Wendy which made her heart sink. She opened up Winston's wallet and saw the many picture of her and Winston that Winston had kept.
"Doctor... can I at least see his body?" Wendy asked.
"You might not like what you see,".
"It's fine, I need to see Winston one last time," Wendy said.
Wendy walked into the operating room, the room had some low lights and faded white walls. The tiles underneath her feet were also a faded white, but they were slightly darker than the walls. There was a soft breeze in the room thanks to the multiple fans set up.
The doctor led Wendy over to Winston's body. She turned the corner and slowly pulled back the curtain, and what she saw only brought back the tears. There she saw Winston's body being zipped up into a body bag. His eyes were closed and his face was quite peaceful, she soon walked out of the room and headed over to an airship to take her down to the festival grounds.
Wendy rode the air ship and once she exited she was met by everyone else. Everyone was there even Team Moonlight. They all had sad faces, but the two who were affected the most was clearly Wendy and Amity.
"Hey... um... Wendy, I know this is a bad time, but Ultima, Mei'li and I all have to head back to Aether now. So I'm going to have to cancel on the rest of our tournament matches," Sealeous said.
"Yeah... I'm thinking about dropping out of the tournament as well," Wendy said. Wendy walked up to Sealeous and gave him a small kiss on the cheek leaving the young prince blushing with shock. "Hey Sealeous, I guess I'll see you soon?"
"I'm not sure how long I'll be in Aether for, but I'll try to keep in touch alright," Sealeous said.
"Hey guys, so Astrid and I since we already lost in the tournament, there's no point in us continuing so we're going to be heading back to Null. But it was fun becoming friends," Skei said.
"Hey Chara, Wendy, Amity, I'm never going to forget the time we spent together. Thanks to all of you I've made some of the best friends I've made my entire life," Astrid said.
"Hey Wendy, Amity and I are going to try and focus on getting stronger so we're planning on heading to the Tsu kingdom, if you're interested you can come along," Ivan offered.
"Nah... I'm good, I'll be here in Null for the time being," Wendy responded.
"Hey Wendy don't worry Owen and I will be staying here in Null, so don't worry you won't be too lonely, but we are going to a private camp to train, so we might not get to hang out a whole lot," Chara said.
"Oh I see," Wendy said.
After Wendy had just heard that everyone was going somewhere off to do their own thing, she felt even emptier inside. It was as if chains were forming around her heart and weighing her down. She already got the message from Sealeous that Winston's sisters were being moved into their grandmother's house, so she didn't have to worry about them.
But Wendy now just had the rest of her life to worry about, and the events to happen from now on. What else did this world have in store for a young silver eyed zoroark. There was only one way to find out, and that was to start living in the world you were born in.
(-0-)Somewhere deep in the Kingdom Null(-0-)
"Scarlet Witch,"
"Yes your majesty...".
"I have a mission for you that you might enjoy,".
"Oh what is it?".
"Take this knife, I want you to assassinate Prince Sealeous for me, I don't care how you do it, but I just want him dead,".
"With pleasure Thor,".
