Authors note: Holy crap everyone, literally 300 views. I'm speechless … I actually have no idea what to say but to say that I made a lot of spelling errors in the last chapter lol-
But thank you to everyone that's been reading it, I know the story is pretty janky but I'm working it out as it goes. But I'm just going to shut up now and start the story.
Ferolcyon does not own anything, just the characters.
"That Jolteon literally just defeated Fern in only one move." Sapphire looked at him as he looked at her and her sister. Seeing him turn around and walk back inside. As Audino's and Chansey's went into the arena and picked up Fern back inside to heal up.
"I mean, we hate Fern but that was amazing to see. Did you not see how much power that he had?" The Leafeon looked at her sister.
"Of course I did, Leaf. He literally brought out a hurricane into the arena with just a weapon." Still shocked at the fact the hurricane didn't kill Fern.
Leaf groaned as she pitched between her eyes. "What do we tell father about this?" Sapphire just shrugged and looked at the next contestants, Haunter and a Mienshao. "Well… Father would probably already know, don't you think so?"
"Maybe… I don't know exactly but if big sis Freya knows about this, she is probably going to investigate." Sapphire and Leaf were talking about it as their bodyguards were to the side. Hearing everyone shouting the countdown seeing both a different Jolteon and a Mienshao fight.
"Know about what?" As an Espeon walked out of the door behind them without any bodyguards, smiling devilishly. Both Sapphire and Leaf's bodyguards started to make a line for Freya.
"B-Big sis Freya!" As Sapphire backed up and so did Leaf. "N-nothing! That you should know of!"
Leaf facepalmed and looked at Sapphire as she stuttered in her words, deciding to whisper to Sapphire's ear. "We should probably tell her anyway, she's going to find out anyway."
"Of course I would know, I can read your minds." As Freya did a small karate chop on both of their heads.
"R-Right.." They both said sitting on their hind legs.
"Back to the point, who is this Storm?" Freya walked up beside her sisters. "And where is he?"
"U-Uh… What we know of who Storm is, is that he's just a Jolteon and a mask with a weapon that can change." Sapphire said as she stopped rubbing on her head.
"You gotta admit though, his sense of clothing style is pretty good." Leaf said as she also stopped rubbing her head.
"True," She continued. "Storm went back into the room with the other Pokémon." As she scratched her chin. "Not only that, he summoned a freaking hurricane just from a spear!"
As Sapphire was hit by the head with another karate chop. "Language, but really? A hurricane? That's like physically and mentally impossible to do."
"Ow.." She groaned, "But not just that from section six, a Lucario moved at speeds that I haven't seen ever in my life like he had the power of Zeraora. It was like they were similar just in different scales of power…" Sapphire shrugged.
"Really?" Leaf said, "Someone from section ten had similar powers of Zygarde. He had like powers to duplicate and split up parts of himself and put himself together like pieces." She was thinking about it as she scratched her chin with her vines.
"Hmm… Interesting, I'll head to the library today I'll do some more research about it." As she looked at her sisters. "Leaf, keep going to stadium to stadium look for whoever else has these powers. I will keep a list of who has them." Then Freya looked at her Sapphire, "I need you to mainly focus on the people of their powers and what their powers resemble to. But mainly focus on Storm. It looks like he has more than one that he has."
"But what about father? Should he know about this?" Leaf wanted to tell due to her being the tattle tale in the family.
"No. He shouldn't, he will make this into a big deal and bring it out to the public. Keep it between only us three." As she looks at the bodyguards, as they keep their 'performance' up. "That goes with you six, don't tell anybody about it. Alright?"
They all nodded, "Yes Ma'am!"
Freya sighs and walks off. "Now you both do what you can do, I trust that you both can do what I say."
"Alright big sis." Sapphire and Leaf said at the same time.
"So, shall we get started?" As Sapphire looked at Leaf, she nodded and walked off.
"I see you later Sap." Leaf said as she walked off.
"I told you to call me Sapphire not Sap! We aren't kids anymore." As her face puffed up and looked away from her.
"Sure sure." Leaf smiled and continued walking with her bodyguards.
She sighed and followed Leaf downstairs to section two's room with the other pokemon. Leaf went on ahead to head to section five.
Meanwhile with Juno, she was wondering what Silent would be doing right now, what scheme could he be planning. "What am I supposed to do…" She groaned, the only time remembering feeling like this was when Silent wasn't retired, she only remembered being like this for only a year, thinking about what he would do.
Sighing once again she thought about what power does it mean that she could beat him? If she unlocked it? Her questions go unanswered, the only way that her questions could be answered if she found Silent ever again. "Juno!"
"Huh what?" As she looked up to see Zeal. "Oh uh, hey. I see that you won?"
"You weren't paying attention now were you?" Zeal took a good guess, as Juno nodded. Sighing, he sat next to her, "Juno, just stop thinking about Silent for once. We both saw that he didn't kill the princess." As both of them hear the voices of the next pokemon names going up. Seeing a Simisage get up and walk to the exit.
"I-It's not just that… He said something, when he didn't kill me four years ago…" As Juno was in fear.
"What was it about?" Zeal seemed to see Juno to panic even more. "Calm yourself first." As he patted her back.
"R-Remember that he said about my power?" As she calmed down a bit.
Zeal nodded, "Yeah what about it?" As he leaned over to the side to get a clear view of her face.
"H-He… Said something about when I unleash my power…" She gulped, "He would actually come back and kill me, even after all those years…" As she hid in fear.
"Does it really haunt you that much?" Zeal was concerned for her, as she nodded. "How would it help you to stop thinking about all of this?"
"I-I don't know.. Confront him directly? I can't, I'm afraid of dying. That's what I've always been afraid of. I want to get over it, but I can't if I'm actually going to die one day from his hands." As she placed her paws on the visor of her helmet.
"Hey, just relax for a bit, focus on the present, not the future." Zeal sighed and patted her back once more. "Who knows? Maybe Silent Lightning changed his mind. Just think about it. Even all the evil he did, what if he forgot about it?" Hearing cheering once again, as the Simisage returned back injured.
"When you put it like that… I guess?" Zeal heard sniffing from her sounding like she was crying. "I know I'm strong, but it's always him who haunts me everyday. If I just met him face to face again. I'd be facing my fears, but how am I supposed to find him? If I don't know who he is?"
"What do you plan to do if you find him?" Zeal got up and walked in front of her and crouched down, looking at her eye to eye.
"I…" She gulped, "I plan to talk with him. To work it out between us." As she lied to him, but Zeal didn't know.
"Seriously? That's all?" Zeal was confused by the sudden mood change, but Juno nodded. Zeal facepalmed, "Okay… But just don't push yourself over it alright?" She nodded, as she heard her name being called out.
Grabbing her spear with her ribbons, "I guess it's my turn… I'll see you in the next round." She waved Zeal goodbye as he waved goodbye as well.
Walking outside to the stadium for her turn, she walked out seeing a Flygon. She sighed, as it looked to be another normal contestant in the tournament. Looking down at her feet, a view appeared quickly as she saw her paw's in blood. Shaking her head violently she looked up as everywhere seeing her view went back to normal. Hearing the voice of the Exploud introducing them of who they are, the majority of the crowd was chanting the words "Internal Life" As her hero name. But all she could hear was silence, hearing Silent's words repeatedly over that he would kill her. Not being able to hear the count down, she sees the Flygon fly straight at her .
Having no reaction time due to thinking of the future and her death that could happen. Weapon first he uses his sword as he stabs straight through, feeling the slash to her slash she kneels down. Feeling no pain, she looked at the Flygon as the Flygon was in shock. Getting back up as she looked at the Flygon using her spear as a javelin throwing straight at him without hesitation on how hard she threw it. As it flew right past Flygon's head, almost killing him. Breaking through the wall behind him and the next five walls as it made it outside the arena, destroying three trees. As the Flygon stopped flying seeing his life flash before his eyes.
The Flygon snapped out of it and called an immediate forfeit. Juno, realizing this she shakes her head as some pokemon were gasping as some were cheering. As the Exploud heard her being declared the winner, she just ran back inside. "W-What did I just do…" Still bleeding from the sword that sliced some of her skin off. As her ribbons were covering the injuries.
Zeal sees her running through as the other pokemon saw her run, "Juno where are you going!?" As he yells out as she ignores him, seeing her spear she runs up to it. But as she runs her vision changes once again. Panicking, she sees a burning school, a very familiar scene that she hasn't seen before. Shaking her head, seeing her spear just there she runs up to it as she grabs it with her ribbons and removes the helmet from her head, sobbing as she kneels down. Looking up, she sees a masked Jolteon resembling Silent. He walked up to her as she held her spear out trying to look like a threat.
He sighed and shook his head, he walked forward as he put his paw on the spear and lowered it. "What are you doing here crying? Stranger." As he sat down in front of her.
"W-Who are you?" She put her paws on her face trying to wipe her tears.
"The name is Storm, what about yours?" As Velo tried to remain calm and act casual as usual.
"I-It's… Juno." Being hesitant towards him.
"Ah, beautiful name. But what are you doing here by yourself?" Velo mentally facepalming for terrible acting, but scooting a bit closer to her.
"I-I…" As she starts to sob again, Velo sighs, getting up and sitting next to her. "What are you doing?"
"Back home, my brother," He stopped in his sentence, shaking his head mentally he continued. "Does this to make me feel a bit better when I cry about bad memories." As he moves his arm around her for a hug. "I know we just met, but I can't just leave pokemon like you like this. Say as if it's some kind of tradition."
"Alright…" She sniffed due to her tears, returning the hug.
"You were saying?" As he tried to make her continue.
"O-Ohh.. Right.." Stopping the hug and wiping her tears. "I just had a bad memory from four years ago." Catching this Velo's ears were up and listening carefully. "You can say that I have a rival… or something like that, he said something about killing me if I unleashed my power even though I don't know what it is."
Velo mentally facepalmed knowing what she means, "Oh…" He did remember threatening to kill her once she unleashes her power, but he gave up on that due to him living a nice and relaxing life.. Sort of.
She nods, "It always haunts me, I want to figure out what the power is… But I'm afraid…" She stopped mid-sentence to catch some breath after crying, "I'm afraid of dying… Even though I fought against him so many times I'm afraid of dying." Sighing and looking at him directly in the eyes, seeing her eyes going dry as he can see her eyes sorta go red too from crying. "I didn't seem afraid when fighting him all the time since he left me alive over and over when we fought, but now when I think about it when he threatened me, I feel like he is stabbing through my chest slowly…"
"Oh…" He nodded at her as he gave her another hug, trying to keep up his act. "Hey it's alright, maybe he changed his mind, you don't know if his mind changed."
"Someone said that but I just can't believe it, over the years he killed so many and I just don't think he'd change." As she felt his spiky fur, feeling that his fur is a bit smoother than other Jolteons. "You know… I met a pokemon species like yours yesterday. Well… another Jolteon to be correct.."
"Really?" He said, question her trying to say in his acting.
Nodding, "His name was Velo, he kinda reminded me of my rival but just a bit less cranky." She stopped the hugging again as her tears were completely gone.
Velo chuckled thinking that was a bit offensive, sighing he can't remove his mask even if he wanted to. Due to the lie he made up on Eli, but was thinking that Eli will show up any moment. "I know this is a bit rude but do you have friends here?"
Nodding once more, "Yeah… I'm pretty sure one of them is looking for me right now…" She got up and removed her ribbons from her injuries. Velo noticed this as he stopped her pushing her to sit down. "What is it?"
"Your injuries, let me treat them." As he pulled her arms a bit closer to him, as she pulled away from him.
"O-Oh! You don't need to.." She looked away from him, "You act like Velo just a bit nice."
"I don't know if I should take that as a compliment or not." He pulled her arms in as she started to look away. As his aura around him started to vision of hers, she was shocked and surprised. The aura pulled out the sword and stabbed it into the ground. As a ring of water surrounds them, having her wounds to slowly patch up. "There you go." Getting up the aura grabs the sword and returns back into the mask.
"Y-You have the same power as my rival…" As she backed up again.
Velo sighed, "You never told me your rival's name, what was it?" Putting a paw out to help her up, Juno accepted and got up.
"His name was Silent." She said, starting to walk back to her section as Velo starts to follow behind. Juno is looking forward; she sees Zeal and Eli looking around, sorta panicking.
Eli, noticing that Velo was walking with Juno, rushed forward into a battle stance. "Juno stay away from him!" Growling a bit straight at Velo.
"Wait why?" As she was confused, as Zeal ran right next to Eli in a battle stance removing his sunglasses as his eyelids opened.
"He is Silent Lightning's brother! We can't trust him!" Eli growled even more as he took a step forward, Juno's eyes were in shock as she backed up and looked at him.
"A-Are you actually…?" Stuttering in her words as Velo sighed and nodded. "Explain yourself!" As her spear started to target him.
"I would, but even if I did. You would only cause me and him trouble." Velo is trying to keep his cool. "Besides, how about we put our fighting aside and continue with the tournament." Walking casually towards Eli and Zeal.
"No! We aren't letting you leave in peace!" Zeal ran straight at him, as Velo's body became water as Zeal phased right through, turning around looking at him.
"Hmm…" Velo went back to being solid as he was scratching his chin. "Let's make a deal."
"What is it?" Eli said, still growling at him.
Velo walked towards Juno as she backed up a bit and aimed her spear at him. "If one of you comes to the final's and defeats me or if one of your friends beats me. I'll tell you what I know about my brother." As he walked around Juno, putting his paw on her chin. "Well… I doubt any of you can defeat me. If you couldn't defeat my brother then there's no way you can defeat me." He chuckled, as Juno looked at his eyes, knowing that he meant it.
"We have to take the deal." Sighing as she lowers her spear.
"You can't be serious Juno! We can take this guy head on!" Eli said, trying to look threatening towards Velo.
"We can't Eli, what about the civilians that are here. Who knows what he can really do. He could kill everyone here. We can't afford that to happen." She sighed as Velo stopped putting his paw on her chin.
"At Least someone has some brain cells in this group." Velo laughed a bit.
"B-But…" Eli stopped his stance as Zeal did the same.
"She's right Eli, if he could destroy everything here and kill everyone then it'd be our fault." Zeal closed his eyes and put his sunglasses back on. "We're forced to take the deal."
"Alright…" Eli's ears went down.
"Anyway, we should probably start heading to our stations for the second round, yes? I'll see you there." As he ran to his section.
"Eli, you need to go to your section too, our section is right here. When you get the chance, tell the others about it. This can only stay between us and the group. If anyone else knew about this, it would cause a panic." Zeal ran back into his section as Juno did the same, Eli nodded and ran too, quickly to his section.
Eli made it just on time back to his section, walking back inside he see's Storm standing waiting. As a pokemon behind him said, "Excuse me." Eli looked behind him as he see's a Flaaffy with glasses with a clipboard trying to get in.
"Oh sorry." As he moved to the side as the Flaaffy walked into the middle of the room.
"Alright everybody! As you see you guys are the ones who passed the first round, I will assign you to your new section for the second round." As he looked at his clipboard, "For section one: Eli, Rodgers, Mileena, Rune, Xavier, Emi, Leo, Queen, Yumiko and Dale will head there right now." Saying their real names, the pokemon walked out Eli looked at Storm as he looked back at him. Eli then walked out.
Hearing from the distance of these words. 'Now for the other four.' As the voice of the Flaaffy disappears from being too far, Eli see's 80 pokemon heading for section one. Seeing other pokemon exiting and heading to their sections. As they all walked into the room, The pokemon that is in the middle of the room is a Delibird. Eli sees two of his other friends, Millie and Anna. He told them about the situation they were put in to fight against Silents 'brother'
"Are you actually serious?" Anna said as she was playing with her slime due to her being a Goodra.
Eli nodded, "Yeah, we have to give it our all this time."
The delibird then walked out, as now who was left was Zeal and Juno, Zeal met up with Millie, Yumi and Callie. Telling them about the situation against Storm, since it was told by Zeal they believed it immediately. Now what was left was Juno, she headed to the fifth section seeing Storm there sitting at a corner, she wasn't the only one looking at him, multiple pokemon were looking at him too due to what they heard about him.
Juno didn't like this, but knowing who he is now she has to give it her all this time. Even with the fear that had been built in, she knows that she has to do this. It would be the only way that she could get information about Silent, still looking at him as she sat down Storm noticed her looking at her. Even from afar she could hear him chuckling in her head. However…
"When it had to be like this…" Velo sweated as he was looking at Juno, "I only meant it as a threat, not literally… " Getting up he walked over to Juno, "Maybe I can set things right?" Questioned himself as Juno looked away from him, sitting right next to her.
"What do you want?" As she gave him a additude, "I trusted you."
Velo sighed and facepalmed, "I'm only saying it's between family, I don't want you or anyone to get in my way."
"Why so? Why can't I know?" Looking at him.
"Because I want it only between me and him, think about it, you can't beat him four years ago that means you can't beat him now. Not with all your training you had." He shrugged, as he put his arms around his head.
"Then tell me why all these years you, his little brother, start to appear now?" As she seemed confused, "Besides how old is he?"
"Well uh… I've been studying from the other side for six years. And if I'm correct…" Thinking if he wanted to tell his real age but what can hurt? "He should be twenty-four right now. And I'm eight-teen."
"Wait… He's older than me by one year!" She realizes that he's a bit mad, but sighing and thinking. "Wait you're eight-teen?!" Shocked, as she was acting with friends with Storm or Velo.
"Well, yeah." Staying silent for a bit, "Juno let me tell you this."
"What?" Changing her facial expression like she's comfortable with him.
"My brother, Silent won't kill you. I'm sure of it." He sighed as he leaned his back on the wall.
"What why so?" Being confused gave that expression that she doesn't know.
"Well he would've killed you already, about the part where you fought him and he disappeared? He wouldn't kill you even today, I know that for sure." As he looked at the clock reading 4:24 PM. "That's how our family works, if we wanted you dead you would've been dead already, we don't wait."
"Are you completely sure?" A bit concerned, but Velo nods.
"Silent has mercy on others even when he acts like the devil himself, I know he has his morals. Just believe me alright? I'm only looking for him due to me just… Missing him." Velo wanted to vomit, just because he's calling himself brother as he's acting himself as the younger brother. Then there's the whole situation where he's just himself too.
"Oh… I guess that makes sense, but that doesn't change my mind that I want to talk to him. I want to ask why." Feeling a bit down.
"But do you understand not to tell anyone else?" Questioning her, as she nods as an agreement.
"I don't understand how it would cause trouble for you, if you just didn't tell us." As she's still a bit concerned.
"Well, you guys would still hunt him down and if you figure out who he is, then you would know who I am. It would cause trouble for our family as well." Stretching out a bit as he looked at her. "Just please don't find him, he really just wants a normal life."
"Fine…" Looking away from him, "But remember that means you would need to win the tournament." Storm nods as he hears his name being called out.
He got up, looking at her. "Alright, thank you for understanding." He bowed down and headed off to the arena.
"I guess… He might be right after all." Lowering her guard feeling a bit relaxed. As if Silents laugh in her head disappeared.
Freya however went back inside the castle, in the library looking for books about what she was told about. As she went to the section of fantasy or myths. She pulled out multiple books with her psychic, quickly reading through all of them. Noticing that it isn't going to be easy to find. She just hoped to be lucky, using psychic on herself to fly around, she made it to the top of one of the shelfs seeing a dusted book, with no title. Confused, she grabbed the book with her psychic and brought it down to a table, pulling out a chair and sitting on it, opening the book for the first page.
Not being able to see who the author is, she turned to the next page. Reading the words chapters one: "Beginnings."
I know this chapter is a bit short and took a bit longer but the next chapter will surely be interesting, don't worry I'll work as fast as I can on the next chapter. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and I'll see you later.
