Firesage101: ok I can be wrong but half the fun of guessing is I may get it right. I like how battle is free but has to deal with Jarod now. love it.

UltimateLeviathan: Isn't it just great having voices in your head?

Replies

Jarod: Well, sometimes the voices are good to have when they warn you about upcoming danger. Now, if you just randomly hear voices telling you to kill or hurt others, you might want to see a psychiatrist.

Battle: Was that a reference to me and Dark Matter?

Jarod: Yes, yes it was. And don't worry, we're skipping over a teleport.

Jarceus: That was my line.

Jarod: Too fucking bad.


Last Time


"Oh yeah… I remember that now. Funny the things you'll forget in two years." Sighed Battle before he realised something "Wait weren't you a voice in Aura's head for a while?" He asked, smirking

"Yeah, yeah, I know, karmic justice that I become a voice in someone's head." Laughed Jarod sarcastically

"Nah, I was going to ask how much of a bitch you became." Chuckled Battle before Jarod turned into a giant black monster

"BiTcH! I WiLl EAt YoU!" Screamed Jarod in multiple voices before Battle ran away, making Jarod chase him down


Now


"Ok, we're at the Tree of Life." Stated Jarod, in his 'gijinka' form, as Battle teleported himself, Jarod, Aura, Christy and Enigma in front of a giant withered tree

"You know, for a tree called the Tree of LIFE, I thought it'd be more… you know, alive?" Shrugged Enigma confused

"That's an easy explanation. The Tree of Life is dying because of an ancient force called Dark Matter. That is what was controlling me to petrify everyone." Explained Battle simply as he took a step forward only for Jarod to push him over "Hey! Why did you do that?" He asked angrily before he turned to Jarod to see him holding an orb of dark energy in his hands

"Not this time… Yveltal." Growled Jarod as he absorbed the orb into his body as Yveltal rose out of a wormhole of darkness, Nuzleaf and two Beheeyem accompanying him

"YoU'rE MInE." Stated the many voices of Dark Matter inside of Jarod's mind as his body froze up

'W-what?' Asked Jarod in shock, realising he couldn't move or speak as his body slowly turned towards Battle and the others despite his best attempts to stop himself

"Jarod? Why are you turning?" Asked Christy slightly afraid

"SoRrY. JaROd ISn'T HerE." Laughed Dark Matter through Jarod's body as it fired an orb of darkness at Battle, only for the kitsune to jump out of the way

'Please. If you hear me… strike me.' Thought Jarod before he noticed he could twitch his hand a little

"DiE!" Screamed Dark Matter as it created another ball of energy before its hand closed, destroying the ball before Dark Matter could throw it "WhAt?" It asked confused before a massive beam of light shot down from the heavens and hit Dark Matter on the head "ArrRRGggHhhH! ThAt Hurts." Growled Dark Matter as Jarod slowly got control again

"I… Won't let you… HURT THEM!" Screamed Jarod before a pulse of dark energy erupted from his body, shooting out a small red shard, which flew to the top of the Tree of Life

"GRAH!" Screamed Yveltal, Nuzleaf and the two Beheeyem as they were consumed in a dark looking aura before they all formed a massive sphere of dark energy before they all chucked it at Jarod, who absorbed it before a ball of light hit him on the head as he changed back into a normal Keldeo before he started glowing and growing before he disappeared

"Prepare for justice!" Shouted Jarod before Nuzleaf shot into the sky, being lifted by an orb, before said orb exploded, dropping light-blue meteor-like energy blasts onto Yveltal and the Beheeyem duo, dealing massive damage to Nuzleaf and Yveltal leaving the latter panting and the former fainted.

"Wow, what the hell?" Asked Enigma confused before Jarod appeared next to him in a human form he and the others haven't seen before. Jarod's eyes were red in the pupils, his hair had turned yellow and stretched behind him, like a massive wind was blowing, with two 'horns' at the base of the line of hair with a blue triangle-shaped streak at the front of his hair He wore a yellow trench coat with a blue, lined inside, which went down to his knees, the 'cuffs' on the trench coat were light blue and had two white gems each, otherwise his clothes were the same as when he was in his Keldeo 'gijinka' form.

"Sorry for the surprise. It'd seem that my prayers were heard." Smirked Jarod as he stared down at Yveltal and the Beheeyem duo before the cuffs on his trench coat and the triangle-shaped streak of hair turned black, the inside of his trench coat turned dark grey and his gems turned into a reddish-orange. His pupils also turned grey while his sclera turned into the same colour as his gems "I would run now if I was you." He growled in a darker voice

"GROH!" Roared Yveltal as he fired a massive red beam at Jarod only for him to dodge it before he appeared between the two Beheeyem

"Dark Pulse!" Called out Jarod as a wave of dark emotional energy exploded out of his body and shot the two Beheeyem into two different trees, knocking the two out before a yellow ball of energy hit him in the back "GAH! Focus Blast?!" He asked surprised as he noticed another one coming at him making the his iris turn yellow, his sclera turn pink, his triangle-shaped hair streak and his trench coat's cuffs turned into an indigo colour while the inside of his trench coat turned into a darker colour of indigo and the gems on his cuffs turned into the same pink as his sclera, as the Focus Blast passed straight through him harmlessly "Shadow Force." He stated calmly as he seemed to melt into the shadows

"GROH!" Roared Yveltal as he flew towards Battle and the others before two massive bolts of electricity blasted him back

"How could you start the party without us?" Asked James playfully as he, Watts, Empoleon and Infernape walked up to Battle

"Wasn't my idea, Yveltal started it, and Jarod is ending it." Shrugged Battle before Jarod appeared behind Yveltal

"ROAR OF TIME!" Roared Jarod as he fired an indigo beam into Yveltal's back making him smash into the ground before Jarod flipped in midair as he turned into a Resolute Keldeo as he slashed Yveltal in the back making his eyes turn into spirals before Jarod turned back into the form he was previously in, only, the iris of his eyes were red while the sclera were green, the cuffs of his coat and his triangle-shaped streak were gold, his gems were green and the inside of his coat was grey

"Wow. You won on your own with ease." Noted Aura amazed "But what was that on your prayers being heard?" He asked

"I asked Arceus to strike me to stop me from hurting you. I guess he heard me and decided to do one better by giving me his power as well. I can now transform into an Arceus… A shiny one to be specific." Explained Jarod before he turned back into a Keldeo

"Oh, ok." Nodded Aura slightly surprised by Jarod's answer

"So, we'll get to defeat Dark Matter now." Smirked James happy before he noticed that Jarod had a downed expression on his face "What's wrong Jarod?" He asked making everyone else noticed Jarod's face

"You guys… You won't fight." Stated Jarod sadly confusing everyone

"Of course we are, we're not going to sit by while Dark Matter kills us." Stated Aura before Jarod turned into his Keldeo 'gijinka' form and slapped him in the face

"No, you are not! I'm not having you all distract me!" Shouted Jarod making Aura growl

"We are going to help you, like it or not! This is not a dick fighting competition! If you want publicity so bad, we'll give you the credit!" Growled Aura before he was slapped by Jarod, only harder this time

"This has nothing to do with that! I'm the only one who can fight Dark Matter! While I was fighting and protecting you, I realised you all don't have Harmony Scarves!" Shouted Jarod making Battle's eyes widen

"So, that is what this is about. You're really worried for us." Sighed Battle making everyone besides Jarod and Aura stare at him confused "When Jarod and I were sharing the same body, I watched his memories of playing the game he used to get to our reality and one which tells events highly similar to the ones that are happening. The Harmony Scarves he mentioned are special scarves which stop you from being Petrified if you are within a certain vicinity of the Tree of Life. They will also evolve you into your final stage of evolution…" He explained before he trailed off staring at Christy

"What?" Asked Christy noticing Battle's stare

"I just realised you are the only one who isn't in their final stage of evolution…" Muttered Battle only to get hit by a Psybeam in the face

"Well, what do you expect?! Aura and Jarod do almost all of the battling leaving nothing for the rest of us! The only fight I actually got experience in is that one against Gallade!" Shouted Christy pissed off

"Actually, when I think on it, the same might be true for me since I joined the team…" Admitted Enigma Mareepishly

"Ok, that's great." Sighed Jarod before he noticed a giant beam of light "Oh…" He started before the beam hit him "SHIIIIIIT!" He screamed before he disappeared

"Oh, my Arceus… I think Jarod was just killed…" Stated Aura in shock before he fell onto his knees as a yellow ball of energy shot out of his back before slipping into two halves, one half going back into Aura while the other half formed an Alolan Ninetales who had bands on his legs, one of which had a green pokéball symbol on in

"Um… What just happened?" Asked the new Ninetales, in Jarod's voice, confused

"Jarod? I think you were…" Trailed off Battle as he stared at his other self

"Was… was I just killed only to be brought back a second later?" Asked Jarod as he looked over his new body "And… I was brought back as an Alolan Ninetales wasn't I?" He asked getting a nod from everyone besides Aura, who was panting on his knees

"Alolan Ninetales? What is that?" Asked Aura confused as he got back up

"Pretty much a Ninetales with an alternate typing. Instead of being a straight fire-type. Jarod is an Ice/Fairy-type." Explained Battle briefly making Aura chuckle darkly

"Is that so?" Smirked Aura as he formed a small orb of grey light before pointing it at Jarod "FLASH CANNON!" He called out as he fired a beam of grey light at Jarod, who dodged it "Come here you little shit!" He screamed as he chased Jarod around, firing Flash Cannon after Flash Cannon

"What did I do?!" Shouted Jarod as he dodged the beams

"This is what you get for fucking with me for so long!" Screamed Aura as he continued to chase Jarod

"Was it the images of Christy or the nightmares!?" Asked Jarod loudly before he ducked under a Flamethrower

"You what!" Screamed Christy as she started firing Flamethrower after Flamethrower at Jarod, helping Aura to chase the elusive Ice/Fairy-type down

"Even though I'm probably going to die, I SHIP IT LIKE FEDEX!" Screamed Jarod one last time before he randomly climbed up the Tree of Life


Jarceus: That is all for this chapter. I hope you all enjoyed.

Jarod: Are we going to know who fucking killed me and split my soul from Aura's soul?

Aura: Wait a second… I'm… I'm free of him giving me images of Christy in my head!

Jarod: You know, take away Christy's fur and she's wearing nothing at all.

Aura: You. Stop that.

Jarod: Nothing at all…

Aura: *Mumbles something*.

Jarod: What was that?

Aura: Grr. I said stupid sexy Christy.

Jarod: Enigma, Battle. Get the party supplies! Aura admitted to taking a fancy towards Christy!

Enigma: Hell yeah!

Battle: *Backing away slowly*

Christy: I'm going to kill you both.

Jarod: Thinking what I am Enigma?

Enigma: Run?

Jarod: *Nods*

Enigma&Jarod: *Run away* NO REGRETS!

Christy: GET YOU ASSES BACK HERE SO I CAN GIVE YOU THIRD DEGREE BURNS!

Jarceus: Um… See you all next time…?
