Dawn of the Chaos

Chapter 53: The Truth Behinds the Mask

At last…Heroes/Heroine of Legend have finally reached the deepest room of the Palace of Legend, Lord Norval's chamber.

"This is the last…" Jedi says.

"Lord Norval! Where are you?" Ordin says.

"Come out and fight us!" Scarley says.

"I see you finally manage to overcome your obstacle…" Someone says. And then, Lord Norval appears in front of them.

"Welcome to Palace of Legend, Heroes/Heroine of Legend." Lord Norval says. He looks at Heroes/Heroine of Legend with an emotionless face through his mask.

"You are so good to have finally collected all Pure Pendants, maybe too good…" Lord Norval says.

"We have nothing more to fear!" Lumiere says.

"The future of the world is up to us!" Ordin says.

"We must protect the world…" Scarley says.

"We must defeat the evil…" Jedi says.

"…" Winsol says nothing.

"Let's finish this battle so I can kill Link…" Frostic mumbles.

"…" Tersoul says nothing.

"…Are you sure that you will be able to defeat me?" Lord Norval asks.

"Of course!" Link says.

"And we will destroy the Dark Gem that causes the void appeared in the sky too!" Zelda says.

"...Although you have protected this world from Ganondorf three years ago, but this time you shall lost!" Lord Norval says and roars.

Masked Dark Lord

Lord Norval

"YAHH!" Link roars and strikes Lord Norval with his sword. But a dark barrier appears and protects Lord Norval.

"What the?!" Link says.

"You are idiot. I have the power of the Dark Gem. So you won't be able to inflict any damage on me." Lord Norval says.

"We can't give up!" Link says.

"Why?" Lord Norval asks.

"Because the future of the world is up to us." Link says.

"The world that full with hatred, sorrow and nightmare?" Lord Norval says.

"But this world also has a good thing like a happiness, dream and love!" Zelda says.

"Hm! No such a thing like that in this world. You may feel happy, have your dream or have your love, but finally, you will find that happiness, dream and even love that you feel is a fake! The sorrow, nightmare and hatred is the stable thing in this world!" Lord Norval says.

"That's wrong!" Lumiere says.

"The happiness, dream and love is the unstable thing. But the sorrow, nightmare and hatred is the thing that last forever." Lord Norval says.

"No!" Zelda says.

"Then prove it!" Lord Norval says.

"This is the thing that we can't prove! You will know if you exist and feel it!" Jedi says.

"Then prove your existence!" Lord Norval says.

"Uh…" Link says.

"See it! You can' prove your existence! This world is the world of illusion! I shall destroy it so no one will feel frustrate by the illusion anymore!" Lord Norval says.

"…" Everyone says nothing. But then…

"What?!" Lord Norval says. Because the Pure Pendants that everyone except Link and Zelda are holding starts glowing.

"What is this?" Link and Zelda say.

"Kindness, the power that turns an enemy into a friend." Lumiere says.

"Patience, the power that changes the devil into the angel." Ordin says.

"Temperance, the power that turns a bad thing into a good thing." Scarley says.

"Chastity, the power that cleans the dark world into a purity world." Jedi says.

"Diligence, the power that makes the world becomes a happiness world." Tersoul says.

"Charity, the power that flows like a water of gratitude into our heart" Frostic says.

"Humility, the power that unlocks all locks in this world." Winsol says.

"What is that?!" Lord Norval says. But then, Lord Norval's dark barrier disappears!

"What?! My barrier?!" Lord Norval says.

"I understand this now, the power of light always win the power of the darkness." Zelda says.

"And the Pure Pendants gave us their power…" Link says.

"The battle still doesn't over yet!" Lord Norval says. And a real battle begins!

-Finally-

"YAHH!" Everyone roars and strikes Lord Norval with their weapon.

"ARRR!" Lord Norval roars in pain. But…

"I can't lost! Take this!" Lord Norval says before he charges his power.

"What?!" Everyone says.

"Take this! My ultimate attack! Shadow Blast!" Lord Norval says and strikes everyone with his Shadow Blast.

"!" Everyone shocks because they have no time to prepare for the attack. So everyone takes Lord Norval's Shadow Blast directly!

"ARR!" Everyone says and collapses on the ground. But…

"What?!" Lord Norval says. Because Tersoul and Winsol receive no damage from his Shadow Blast!

"Everyone!" Winsol says.

"…" Everyone becomes unconscious.

"Why we still alright?!" Tersoul says.

"…" Lord Norval says nothing.

"…Tersoul, only I and you left… I am scare…" Winsol says.

"Don't worry, Winsol. I will stay by your side!" Tersoul says.

"You two are just a helpless baby Pokemon! Your powers have no match against me!" Lord Norval says.

"…" Tersoul and Winsol say nothing. But then…

"Tersoul!" Someone says. And then someone appears…as a soul.

"Father?!" Tersoul says.

"Don't say anything, son. I have known everything already." Tysand says.

"!" Lord Norval looks at Tysand.

"Father, what's wrong?!" Tersoul says.

"Let me handle this." Tysand says and looks at Lord Norval.

"Why do you break your promise three years ago?! Answer me!" Tysand says.

"…You must be Tysand the Garchomp, the formal Hero of Earth." Lord Norval says.

"Don't act like that! Answer me!" Tysand says.

"I don't know anything about the thing that you said…" Lord Norval says.

"You are evil!" Tysand says.

"Father, what is this?!" Tersoul says.

"Did you know him before?!" Winsol says.

"Yes. Actually, he is…" Tysand says. But then, a Shadow Blast hits Tersoul's body directly!

"ARR!" Tersoul roars in pain.

"Tersoul! Are you alright?!" Tysand says and runs to looks after his son's injury, leaving Winsol facing Lord Norval alone.

"…" Winsol says nothing. She is so scaring. But she feels very strange deep inside her body…

"…" Lord Norval says nothing. And then he raises his Scythe, preparing to attack Winsol.

"…" Winsol says nothing too. Then she raises her Amethyst Chakram, preparing to attack Lord Norval. But then…

"…Winsol…" Someone says.

"?!" Winsol looks around. Except for Link, Jedi, Ordin, Scarley, Lumiere, Frostic, Tersoul and Tysand, she sees no one around this. And that voice…

"…" Lord Norval looks around too.

"…Please stop fighting…" Someone says again.

"!" Winsol looks around again. Now she realizes that the voice that she heard is the same voice that told her to fight Lord Norval back in the Dustorm Village before Lord Norval killed Link and his friends.

"!" Lord Norval looks around again.

"…You two shouldn't fight with each other… You two are similar…" The voice says again…

"W..Who are you?!" Winsol says.

"…Stop it. You aren't the slave of the darkness. Please, stop it!" The voice says again.

"!" Lord Norval looks around. He seems very shock.

"…Winsol… Look at the Pokemon in front of you…. Look into his heart…" The voice says again.

"…" Winsol looks into Lord Norval's eyes. She feels very strange again, like she and Lord Norval are binding together with something.

"My belove… Please… Stop! You are the one who try to free me from the darkness… I will try to free you from the darkness too…" The voice says again.

"!" Lord Norval looks around again.

"…Winsol… Please… Help your father!" The voice says.

"Father?!" Winsol says and looks at Lord Norval.

"… My beloved … I love you and will love you forever." The voice says.

"…Florentine…" Lord Norval says again.

"…Winsol, I am your passed away mother. And the Pokemon that is standing in front of you is your father…" The voice says again.

"Father… Mother…." Winsol says.

"…" Lord Norval says nothing.

"…Please, my beloved, in front of you is your daughter… Please… don't hurt her anymore…" The voice says.

"…" Lord Norval says nothing.

"…" Winsol says nothing too. She is so confuse about everything. The evil lord that she tries to defeat is her own father!

"…Please…Stop it… Both of you… my lovely daughter, Winsol the Lugia… And my beloved husband, Lord Norval… No…Your true face isn't Lord Norval…" The voice says.

"…" Lord Norval says nothing. Then he puts away his scythe. And then he takes off his mask…

He looks at Winsol. Winsol looks at him. He looks very much like Winsol. But he is a normal Lugia, not a draconic Lugia. He is older than Winsol. And he is…

Side Story X:

"Falcon, our friend, don't! Even the great Arceus could not handle that dark book…"

"If you open it… there's no telling what might happen!"

"I do not care, everyone! A world without her is empty. A LIFE without her is empty."

"Speak, the book of darkness! Teach your dark history! I await your command!"

"RRRRRRRRRRR"

"Falcon… What have you done?"

"Silence! The first prophecy beckons. I will erase every inch…of this blasted world!"

"F-Falcon! Don't do this! Falcon!"

"Falcon is no more! I am Lord Norval! And no one shall stand in my way!"

"RRRRRRRRRRR"
