Alright, here's another chapter! Dawn meets up with Cresselia! What will the kindest moemon do?
Foxfawn: Thanks!
The Black Okami: Yes, he is.
Chaos Paradox: Well, something that awesome has to have a purpose.
Electrify: Sorry, no.
Mobiusfan: Read on and see.
SolaeTheBurn: Well, Dawn would never say nice things about someone to their face, but she thinks nice thoughts about them.
Adventures in Sinnoh: The Moemon Story
Chapter 58
Fullmoon Island. A beautiful tropical paradise. The island was little more than a small dot of land, but it was a lush place. It had trees almost over all land, except for one large lake in the center, the lack filled with pure water and in the shape of a crescent moon.
The world began swirling around the small island, on the strip of land that was in front of the lake. The world twisted to reveal a black hole in space, which Dawn popped out of, falling onto the grassy inlet.
"Ouch…" Dawn panted, picking herself up. "Who would have thought a wormhole from one place to the other would hurt to travel through… my whole body's sore…"
"Human!" A voice shouted out. The lake began shining, and a light began emanating from it. A moemon emerged from the water, shining with a beautiful light.
"Whoa…" Dawn said, staring at the radiant moemon. "You're so beautiful…"
The moemon was indeed radiant and beautiful. She wore a flowing gown of blue and gold fabrics, with long elegant pink ribbons forming crescent moon-like loops around her. She had blonde hair down to her shoulders, sticking down in two sections and sticking up at the top, with a large piece of hair colored pink. She had beautiful eyes that seemed to be blue, pink, and gold at the same time.
"Remove that coat." Cresselia said, holding her nose. "It stinks of impurity and corruption."
"Damn right it's impure." Dawn said, tossing the coat away. "This thing's as impure as the driven yellow snow."
"I want to know how you got here." Cresselia said, frowning. "Humans should not be able to reach this island by themselves."
"Well, I was… sort of helped." Dawn said. "I don't know how I got here myself."
"Oh…" Cresselia said, face palming. "It must have been that son of a bitch…"
"What?" Dawn said. "What son of a bitch?"
"That would explain the coat…" Cresselia sighed, ignoring Dawn. "I knew its stench was familiar… So you're one of HIS agents?"
"One of that stalker guys' agents?" Dawn asked, frowning. "Yeah, not in this lifetime, lady!"
"Who do you think you're talking to?" Cresselia asked, glaring at Dawn. "I'm a legendary moemon, you know! I could fry your brain just as much as look at you."
"Wh-what?" Dawn asked, shaking from the power emanating from Cresselia. "Um…"
"Juuuust kidding!" Cresselia said, laughing. "I would never harm a cute little human like you!"
"Um… thanks?" Dawn said, smiling shakily.
"So, cutie!" Cresselia said, smiling. "What have you come all the way to Fullmoon Island for? This isn't a place that you come to for a vacation, you know! So speak, what do you want?"
"Um… I need something for my friends…" Dawn said, turning away, frowning. "I have to find some way to save them…"
"Save them from what?" Cresselia asked, yawning. "This isn't really something I can be bothered with… And I'm not feeling especially generous to someone who trespasses onto my island."
"Well, I'm sorry for that." Dawn said, frowning. "But this is the only place to find you, there's nowhere else. So I didn't have any choice but to come here like this, sorry."
"Hm, that was a good apology." Cresselia said. "So I'll listen to what you have to say. Speak, girl. But this doesn't mean I'm promising you anything."
"Alright." Dawn said, frowning. "Two of my friends were attacked by a moemon. They were struck by some sort of spell of hers, and now they're trapped in a deep, deep sleep."
"…Not interested." Cresselia said, shaking her head. "I'm sorry, but I'm a specialist. I go into peoples' dreams and make them feel good, sometimes even do 'other things', I'm not someone you go to for just any ordinary problem."
"Please, you have to help them!" Dawn exclaimed. "They're my best friends, and I was told you're the only person who can save them!"
"Listen, you're an agent of that man, so I'm not going to do any favors for you. That bastard caused a conspiracy domino effect that led to the release of my mortal enemy, Darkrai." Cresselia said, frowning. "And any friend of Darkrai's is an enemy of mine."
"Wait, did you say Darkrai?" Dawn asked, frowning.
"Yeah, why?" Cresselia asked.
"Well, that's the name of the moemon that cast some strange bad dream spell on my friends." Dawn said.
"What?" Cresselia exclaimed. "Damn it! That bitch is still putting people under nightmares and interfering with my plans! I tried to make humans into my sex slaves by giving them nothing but good dreams of sex with me, but that bitch made all the people I seduced have nightmares! That damn witch!"
Unreal… Dawn thought, sweat dropping. Darkrai's the good guy in this?
"Alright, here!" Cresselia said, handing Dawn a small feather.
"What's this?" Dawn asked, frowning.
"It's the Lunar Wing." Cresselia said. "One of my feathers. If a person holds it while they sleep, then they have dreams about what they want most. It can also cure peoples' nightmares. Use it to reverse the effects of that Darkrai."
"Alright, thanks." Dawn said, taking the feather. "Now, how do I get back…"
"I'll take care of that." Cresselia said, smiling. She tossed the leather duster to Dawn, and then held up her and. Her hand began glowing, and suddenly Dawn disappeared in a flash of light.
Dawn flashed back into reality in front of the abandoned hotel, and quickly rushed inside. She held the Lunar Wing next to Barry and Lucas' heads, the light causing them to wake up.
"Oh my god…" Barry said, sitting up, sweating. "I just had the worst dream…"
"Me too…" Lucas said, shaking. "But I feel strangely refreshed and happy, like that nightmare sucked away all my fears…"
(Note: When someone afflicted with Darkrais' nightmares wakes up, they are incredibly energetic and happy, free of all fear and sadness. So it's a good thing)
"Huh." Dawn said. "Well, as long as you two are up…"
"Great job, Dawny." The man said, appearing in the center of the room, minus a leather coat. "I'm glad everything worked out okay."
"Here's your coat back." Dawn said, tossing the coat to the man. "It doesn't fit my style."
"Well, thanks." The man said, catching the coat in midair.
"Oh, and here's one more thing." Dawn said, walking up to the man, handing him the Lunar Wing.
"What's this for?" The man asked, frowning.
"As a thanks. For helping me." Dawn said. "I don't need it."
"Well, I don't need it either." The man said, frowning.
"Maybe not." Dawn said. "But I can see. Beneath that smirk of yours, you're pretty sad, aren't you?"
"Well, well." The man said, placing the Lunar Wing in his pocket. Dawny, you're truly an expert at seeing things that are hidden away…
So, how was that chapter?
