Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon...other people do...
Author's Notes: I'm hyper and have no idea what I'm gonna do with this story! Serious or humorous? Perhaps serious with a bit of humor? ^^;;; Gomen ne, I'll shut up and get on with the fic.
If anyone has any info about Latias and Latios, please send it to me at: sherra@northernfootholds.zzn.com. I desperately need the info. ^^; Thank you.

Mew flew for several more miles. It was a very long journey, but she was moving at an extraordinary speed. She made sure to stay above the puffy clouds as she flew. It wouldn't do if a trainer spotted her. Suddenly, she dove headfirst from the cloud cover and rocketed toward the lush, green forest that spread out before her. She startled a few Fearow as she descended, but paid them no mind. This forest was as old as time itself.
It was the Ilex Forest, abode of the elusive Celebi. Celebi was considered to be the bringer of life, among other things. He used his abilities to bend time to his will to retrieve Eggs from the past and plant them in the future. Most were unaware that the Legendaries actually did die. The thing was, whenever Mew "died," Celebi would retrieve an Egg from Kami-sama knows where and she would hatch from it. The thing was, she retained all her stats and her memory. It was in that sense that the Legendaries were immortal. It was silly to think that the mortal bodies their souls were harbored in could last forever. Impossible.
Mew slowed her descent drastically when she was a couple of meters away from the treetops. She calmly floated down under the canopy and listened. The forest noises went undisturbed. She closed her eyes and concentrated. Goody! Celebi was actually here, today! Usually when she wanted to talk to him, she had to trace their mental bond to whenever he was, a draining activity. With a pleased giggle, she did a somersault and dove underwater into a crystal clear lake. Suicune had been here. She could tell. With an elated giggle, the tiny creature circled above the lake a few times before continuing her search for Celebi. As she flew, the sky began to darken as storm clouds rolled in.
It wasn't long before she found him. He didn't need to constantly change his nest; the Pokemon in his forest were very protective of him, and traveling through time was also a very good means of escape. She landed at the entrance and poked her head in. Figures. He was fast asleep. She used her telekinetic abilities to draw a twig from the ground into her paw. Experimentally, she prodded the sleeping Pokemon with the tip of her twig. When this produced no response, she poked him harder. She hopped into the nest and poked again. It began to drizzle outside, then rain. Celebi started and blinked sleepily at Mew. He sat up and yawned. It began to pour in hard, slanted sheets.
"Wow, who died?" Celebi asked her as he made a motion with one of his arms. Leaves moved in front of the entrance to the little nest, preventing the rain from entering. Mew made a little ball of light in her paws. She gave him a funny look as she released it to float in midair. "No one died," she sighed. Celebi made his most innocent face as he said, "Well, I figured that something really tragic happened to get you out of your abode in the Amazon." "Something is up. You know I wouldn't come if something wasn't up," she sighed, exasperated.
It was true. It was risky enough as it was for humans to know where Celebi was, if not when. But if word got out that two Legendaries were in the same place....all hell would break loose. Mew knew. It had happened before, and would happen again. The human race never changed. She sighed and leaned back, resting against the wall of the nest. Celebi blinked curiously at her before saying, "...Well?"
Mew was silent, searching for a place to begin. The beginning would be good. But where did it start? Therein lays the problem. Mew wasn't sure when this problem cropped up. "Humans have been capturing us Pokemon for centuries; you know what happened. The deal was a give-and-take thing. They help us, we help them." Celebi sensed where this was going, but merely nodded.
"That wasn't good enough for some humans. They started to use us," Mew continued, "and then..." she paused, "they began to abuse us."
"Team Rocket," Mew and Celebi said simultaneously.
"One in the same," Mew murmured, "they've been at this for decades, and groups before them for centuries, and groups after them for centuries to come, unless.."
"Unless we stop them now," Celebi finished for her.
Mew smiled, sensing that her friend understood. "But..." Mew stood, "We have to be subtle about it! I don't want to completely destroy our relationships with all humans!!"
"What do you suggest we do?" Celebi asked, a sweatdrop present on his head.
"We should go undercover!!"
"W-what?!?"

"Ninety-eight, ninety-nine, one hundred," the voice rang out flatly as the Semi was unloaded. Its cargo had been one hundred Rattata, brought in for testing. They would be subjected to horrific experiments, and would welcome their deaths with open arms when their ends came, not that the people in the warehouse cared. If they could understand what the Rattata were squeaking to them, they'd probably sneer at the little Pokemon. Or rather, they'd sneer a lot more then they already were.
"Put them there," the voice rang out a second time, just as flatly, but this time accompanied with a lazy gesture of the right arm. The Rocked then returned his attention to his clipboard, and scribbled something down with a dull pencil lead. There were labs underground, and that was the Rattatas' final destination. The nameless Rocket raised his communicator to his mouth and murmured something in it that was inaudible to the others in the warehouse, not that it concerned them. He flipped the page of his clipboard so that it joined the thirty or so other pages hanging down from the edge of the wooden board. He tapped the eraser of his pencil to his bottom lip thoughtfully before scribbling something else down.
"Next shipment!"

The chapters will get longer as I build more plot for this thing. -- ; I'm still throwing around possibilities, juggling ideas, so yeah. Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions for this, please E-mail me at: sherra@northernfootholds.zzn.com So, now that you've come this far, please drop a review! If I don't get any reviews, I won't update.
