The Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series of games are owned by Gamefreak and Nintendo and are not my property.
I own 5 OCs in this, that being the main character Pokemon in the Time, Darkness, Sky games, 3 newcomers, and the partner of the main character. Their names will be Trish the Vulpix, Maxi the Mawile, Jasminder the Leavanny, Marine the Bruxish, and Jasper the human. The story will be told mainly by Trish's POV. All other POVs and dream sequences will be in italic. I'm not saying who is in the POV as some have POV of a character and others are in 3rd Person. You should be old enough to figure it out on your own if you are reading this fanfic.
If I add any new OCs, I will introduce them with their names in bold.
With this out of the way, let's begin.


Chapter 26

When we managed to escape, we all had to run as fast as we could out of the compound before the Sableye could find us. I could tell that Maxi wasn't used to running so fast, so I ended up having to carry her the rest of the way, which wasn't a pain, as she was quite light in terms of weight. Jasper also was a fast runner, but he seemed to be petering out by the time we reached a place that I knew fondly, as I was born inside of it. Chasm Cave. "Hah... hah... why me?... Why me?..." Jasper huffed and wheezed when we finally reached the cave. "Obviously it's because Dusknoir sees you as a threat. Why, I don't know, but he views you as a threat," I said to him with a frown.

"Why would I even want to go with you idiots, anyways? You want everyone in this time to be erased from existence! You'd prevent your own family from being born?" Jasper exclaimed at me with anger in his eyes. "Would you rather stay here where nothing is beautiful and where everyone goes insane from the darkness? Or would you rather see the absolute beauty of a sunrise and see why the past is worth fighting for?" I frowned at him. "What would you know about it, anyways?" Jasper frowned. "Take it from us, human. Our world is five thousand times better than this world," Maxi frowned at Jasper. "We need to keep moving. You're free to do what you want, Jasper, but we're going back to the past," I frowned at him as I started to walk away with the others following me, him looking to be pondering what to do.

"Rgh... rm... fine! You better make good on your promise that this past world of yours is, indeed, better than this world," Jasper frowned as he approached us and we traveled through the Chasm Cave, the place filled with holes that could make you fall forever if you accidentally fell in one. It was also filled with ghost, steel, and dark type Pokemon, which I could tell Jasminder wasn't used to seeing. "So many ghost Pokemon... why is there barely anything but Ghost types?" Jasminder asked with jittery movements when she kept seeing the numerous ghosts. "It's because of Primal Dialga. Ghost, dark, and psychic type Pokemon don't mind the darkness this world ensues, nor do they have any knowledge of right and wrong. This future is practically lawless, which is why there are no police forces except for Dusknoir and his Sableye goons," I frowned. "And their police force is led by Primal Dialga... correct?" Maxi asked. "Precisely," Grovyle frowned.

We continued onward until we reached an area that showed Maxi and Jasminder just how bad this world really was. We came to a place that had a waterfall, but the water hung in the air, suspended, unable to fall at all. "H-How do you get water in this world if it doesn't rain and water hangs in the air? It's solid as a rock!" Maxi asked as she touched a water droplet and picked it up, it being completely solid. "The result is simple, but brutal. Any prisoners that are taken to get executed are used as meat and their blood is what you drink. And this place, with all of its lawlessness, means that humans and Pokemon often need to try and kill each other in order to survive... it's insanity is what this world is," I frowned.

"That's reprehensible... are you saying you had to drink other Pokemons' blood in order to live for this long?" Jasminder asked. "Sadly, yes... and it really wears on you after awhile... so once I got my Dimensional Scream ability and found out about the past, I knew I had to change this future for the better. No one deserves to live like the Pokemon and humans of this world. Nobody does," I sighed as we moved forward some more and into Dark Hill, which was full of steel and ghost and dark types, once again, some of us being able to learn new moves in the process. Jasminder learned a move called Leaf Storm (which was very powerful at the cost of getting weaker after using it) and Maxi learned a new move I hadn't seen before that she called 'Play Rough'. "Mawile aren't just steel type, you know. We're also fairy type Pokemon," she said to us as we moved forward some more until we came to a hill that had small lights flickering over the horizon. "Those lights... they may look pretty, but those are the lights of the prison. It looks like they're planning on executing some more criminals," Jasper sighed as he clenched his fist.

"Why would Master Dialga betray me like this?! I did everything he ever wanted! And then he orders Dusknoir to kill me?! AUGH! ! ! I'm so FURIOUS!" Jasper exclaimed, his voice causing an echo to sound out through the hillside, which we knew would be trouble if we stayed for much longer. "We must push on, brother. Either we stay here and get killed by the Sableye, or we reach the Passage of Time and escape their clutches," I frowned at him. "Passage of Time? What's that?" Maxi asked. "It's a portal created by Celebi in order to take trips through time that span countless generations. Believe it or not, this world is 3 thousand years past the timeline we were in," Grovyle explained. "3... thousand?! People have been in this world suffering for over 3 thousand years?! That's insane!" Jasminder growled. "It is. That's why we need to change the past to save the future and all of these poor souls living in this horrible world... now come on. We're at the halfway point to this world's version of Foggy Forest," I said to them.
