Hi (^_^)
I've decided that I've been extending this story for far too long...
Anyway, I sadly don't own Pokémon...
"Talking" Thoughts "PokeSpeech" Written Material Spirit Speech
On with the story...
Chapter 27: Culprit
Previously:
*Mewtwo's POV, Pallet Town*
After about a minute or two of laughing, Dialga stopped and stared at us.
Once a few seconds passed, he smirked, "If it isn't Mew and Mewtwo. It's been a while since I've seen you two."
There is no way that is Dialga.
Dialga doesn't sound like that.
If that's true, then who is it?
And why does he look like Dialga?
Why does his voice sound eerily familiar if I can swear I've never heard it before?
Why does every passing moment in all this just bring on more questions?
*Arceus's POV, Hall of Origin*
If what Giratina suspects is true, the who could have possibly been strong enough to help Pryce do what he did?
Who could be strong enough to remove souls from one body and put them in other bodies they created?
Who could be evil and vile enough to do this?
Who could have enough power to make Palkia and Dialga go Primal?
Giratina and I are the strongest beings in this universe, who could be so powerful that they could avoid our notice.
It's practically impossible to avoid us entirely, we both know everything about every other being, from when they were born to when they'll die.
Just who is doing all this...
Maybe the answers will come if we go to Pallet Town already.
That is where Palkia and Dialga have gone...
Besides, Mew and Mewtwo can only hold off Palkia and Dialga for so long...
I turned towards Giratina, "We're warping to Pallet Town, now! We have to stop Palkia and Dialga before things get too out of hand."
We've let things go on like this for long enough...even though it's only been a few days at the most since things actually started...
Giratina nodded, "Okay."
Leaf and Gary stared at us, "What about us?"
I almost forgot about them...
I looked at Giratina, "What do we do with them?"
Giratina shrugged, "We could bring them with us and pray they don't accidentally die or something like that... Besides, all their friends are already there."
That was the wrong thing to say...
Leaf and Gary gave us an 'are you insane' look, "You mean to tell us that you left our friends were they could be killed?"
We should have asked Mew and Mewtwo to teleport them here...
It would have been much safer,,,
Giratina and I sweatdropped, "Yeah..."
Leaf and Gary glared at us, "They'd better not be hurt."
Okay this is getting kind of creepy...
They keep saying the same things at the same time...
Not even Giratina and I do that...
Palkia and Dialga never did that either...
I waved a hand, "Anyway, we'd better go... Giratina grab the girl."
Once I finished my sentence Giratina rushed over to Leaf and warped away to Pallet Town with her.
Gary stared at where Leaf just was in shock, "What?"
Humans...
They never understand the simplest of things...
Then again, teleporting isn't exactly common for humans to do unless they teleport with a Pokémon...
I walked over to Gary and grabbed his arm, snapping him back into reality.
Gary turned his head to glance at me, opening his mouth to say something, but before any words could come out, I had already started warping us to Pallet Town.
Hopefully they'll be answers in Pallet.
Maybe we'll finally find out who is person that's behind all this.
*Gary's POV, Pallet Town*
How did we get here so fast?
Nevermind, that's a stupid questions.
Legendries can appear out of nowhere so they probably just brought us here with them.
Leaf and I looked around, surveying the damage and such, seeing my friends knocked out on the ground with their Pokeballs scattered around them.
I wonder were Gramps and Mrs. Ketchum are.
I'm going to guess that they're still inside because the phone is inside...
However, the fact that an evil-looking Palkia and Dialga were present along with a thankfully normal looking Mew and Mewtwo kept us from going to them.
It seems like they put up a fight against Palkia, but I don't think that they had much of an effect.
I think only Legendries can really fight each other and win.
At least the place isn't completely totaled.
Gramps would have a heart attack if that happened.
Although, I wonder where all the Pokémon could be...
I turned my head in every direction looking for any signs of life other than my knocked-out friends and what remained of the wild-life.
Why no one in Pallet noticed any of this?
Why did none of the Pokémon come to help everyone?
Arceus must have had the same line of thought because he suddenly asked, "Mew, Mewtwo, how many other life forces do you sense within your range of detection?"
Mew and Mewtwo stared at Arceus oddly for a few seconds.
Finally Mew answered, "No. I don't sense anyone. Wait a second, I can't sense anyone for miles! Where is everyone?!"
What do they mean by they can't sense anyone?
Pallet Town is less the a mile away and hundreds of people live there.
It's not like all of them could have suddenly disappeared.
Arceus went into a thinking pose, "I thought something might be up..."
All of us except Palkia and Dialga turned towards Arceus, waiting for an explanation.
What does he think happened?
Scratch that, this is Arceus, he probably knows what happened.
Arceus sighed, "Once we teleported here I felt like something was up. This doesn't feel like Pallet Town, actually it doesn't even feel like Kanto either."
How can we not be in Pallet or Kanto yet still be at the Mansion?
Giratina, Mew, and Mewtwo's eyes widened, "You're right!"
Arceus nodded, "Anyway, I think we're in an alternate space that Palkia created once she first came here. That's why we can't sense anything outside of the small area we're in. That's why no one, human or Pokémon, has come here."
As if being attacked by Palkia in some other alternate dimension was enough, now she's attacked my friends in this alternate dimension!
Giratina groaned, "Great, first we find out Palkia's attacked them, then we find out she's told them the truth, now we find out she's transported us to some alternate dimension, what's next?"
Suddenly Palkia started thrashing back and forth, dark energy swirling around her.
Giratina sweat dropped, "I spoke too soon... Now I've jinxed us."
Palkia grabbed her head in pain, shaking it wildly, almost as if she was fighting herself.
After a few minutes Palkia yelled, "I won't let you take over my body!"
What's going on?
Why is Palkia yelling that?
Could it be possible that someone has been controlling her the entire time?
Could what Giratina have hinted towards actually be true?
Did Palkia really go Primal on her own or does she have no control over her actions?
If all that is true, then who is behind all this?
Could it be the same person that helped Pryce, or someone else entirely?
Just who is the culprit?
*Palkia's POV, Pallet Town*
Dialga...
Why?
Why did you still decide to try to save me after all I've done to hurt you in the past few days?
I attacked you.
I betrayed you.
And now I'm destroying you without really trying.
What have I done?
I've been so obsessed with my revenge and pain, that I didn't realize just how much I was hurting you and just how far you'd go to save me.
Love is blind...
It blinded you and forced you to do this.
Now I wish you never fell in love with me, but it's too late to change that.
I watched with sad eyes as Dialga was engulfed dark energy, causing him to go Primal.
My expression changed into one of shock once Dialga spoke to Mew and Mewtwo.
There is no way that that's Dialga.
Dialga's voice isn't like that.
Besides, he'd never use that tone.
Who is that?
It just can't be Dialga.
I won't believe that it's Dialga.
He couldn't have possibly have gone evil!
Time can be distorted and twisted, just like Space.
However, Time is flexible like that, Space isn't.
I understand how I've gone off the deep end, but Dialga?
I swear when I find out who did this...
It's too bad you won't be able to do anything.
What?
Who are you?
The same being that is controlling Dialga.
So it's you causing all the problems.
Let Dialga go, he's done nothing the deserves a heavy punishment, unlike me.
I don't want him to get hurt!
You're too late.
How am I too late?
I already have full control of his body.
That doesn't mean I can't try to stop you!
The spirit ignored me.
Dialga's soul ceased to exist just moments ago.
Now, it's your turn.
What?!
No!
Dialga can't be gone!
At least you will be erased from existence knowing that there was nothing you could do and that at least you tried.
Nice to know you actually care...
Please note the sarcastic tone present in my earlier statement-err thought.
Personally, I don't care about either, but if it makes taking over you body easier, I would say anything.
Why you-
Bastard?
Jerk.
I don't care what you call me.
It doesn't really matter either, my control over your body is almost complete.
I tried moving only to see that the spirit was correct.
Even so, I'll find a way to stop you.
Really?
Everything has been going the way I have wanted it too for a while.
The fact that you were already going Primal helped.
My plan has been working to perfection.
I'm surprised that none of you supposed Legendries realize what I was doing.
Here I thought you were all smart enough to see that everything that occurred ten years ago couldn't have been done by only one man.
Wait?!
You!
You were the one!
You were the one that helped Pryce.
Seems like my cover has been blown.
Oh well, it's too late to do anything about it anyway.
It's never too late!
I'll stop you here and save Dialga and myself!
I won't let you win!
I yelled, "I won't let you take over my body."
It's too late little girl.
You should have realized that already.
Your efforts are pointless.
Now, say goodbye.
No!
I won't say goodbye.
You can't do this.
I already have.
With that I officially lost all control over my body.
As I was fading away I managed to look at the spirit's true form.
You look familiar...
Just who are you?
Someone long forgotten.
Now, sleep for the rest of eternity, Palkia.
Dialga will be there with you.
I slowly lost conscious.
Just who is the culprit behind all this?
Black Out.
To Be Continued...
The plot is finally moving forward...
Sorry for taking so long to do so, but I actually want to end this story before the school year gets to deeply set in motion.
There's that and the fact that this is going to probably be my last long fanfic for Pokémon.
Anyway my next update will be on August 13th.
Until then, Review. (^_^)
