Destiny was standing on the bridge, looking at the sea in front of her. The mild breeze made her hair sway like the gentle waves, made by the various sailing boats. She noticed that, unlike a few of the other towns she visited before, this one wasn't abandoned. In fact, there were quite a few people walking around in the town, which gave her a safe feeling. Apparently, nothing bad had happened to the town itself, and the people didn't look anxious either. But Destiny knew that behind her, there was a Gym waiting, and once she would enter that building, she would no longer be safe.

After a while, a big ship was going to leave the port, which meant everyone had to leave the bridge. Destiny quickly got off the bridge, but realized too late that she walked off the wrong side. She was now on the side of the port that had the Pokémon Gym. Serenia stood next to Destiny, looking at another building at the other side of the street. "Destiny, I believe that's a library over there. If we want to know more about everything that's going on, that might be our best bet." Destiny was about to agree with her, when she suddenly saw Cheryl walking away in the direction of the Gym. "Hey Cheryl, where are you going off to?" She stopped, and turned around. "I'm going to the Gym. I have a feeling we should go there. I don't know why, I just feel it." Without waiting for a reply, Cheryl turned back and started walking again. For a moment, Destiny didn't move. What was she thinking? Was she going to enter that Gym all by herself? Has she gone crazy? Niamare stepped forward. "Destiny, we have to follow Cheryl. She doesn't stand a chance against whatever the building is hiding from the outside world!" Destiny agreed, and they started running after Cheryl.

When they turned into the street where the Gym was, they could just see how Cheryl walked inside. Destiny ran even faster, and tried to call her, but it was already too late. When she was standing in front of the doors, she looked at the Pokémon once. "We have to save Cheryl, there's no time to wait." She pushed the doors open, and walked inside, the others following right after her. They were standing in a room that looked a lot like an indoor construction site, with steel bars and all kinds of machinery everywhere. But no matter where they looked, Cheryl was nowhere to be found. Suddenly, Axilles called them from a corner of the room. "Look, there's an old elevator here. If it works, that might mean that Cheryl went to one of the floors above!" Destiny pulled the rusty elevator doors, and with an horrible screeching sound, the metal doors opened, and they all stepped inside. Destiny tried pushing the buttons, but none of them seemed to work. Suddenly, the doors closed, and the elevator started moving. The whole time there was that annoying, high-pitched sound. As soon as the doors opened again, Destiny saw Cheryl standing on the other side of the room, with her back towards them. Destiny walked closer to her.

"I knew you would follow me here." Something in Cheryl's voice scared Destiny. She didn't sound like she used to. But it wasn't until Cheryl turned around, when Destiny understood this was going the wrong way. Even in the dim lights of the building, she could clearly see the two bright red eyes staring at her. "Destiny, we've been together for a long time now. And for all this time, there's a big secret I've been carrying with me. And now, I want to show you my secret." Before Destiny could do anything, Cheryl fell down on her knees, and screamed in agony. A black mist came from her wide-opened mouth, and Destiny saw how Cheryl's body was slowly getting absorbed by the mist. When the screaming stopped, all there was left from Cheryl was a pile of dead leaves. And right beside of that pile, a new Spirit was awaiting them.
