Episode 4: Ghost of a chance Part 2
The sun is just rising in what is know known as Starlit town, famous for the stars that light it's nearby forest. Sitting on the fountain in the center of the town is Dave and plusle awake for hours waiting. All through the night Dave went from house to house looking for answers in his twin's sister disappearance but no one wouldn't even open there door, still spooked by what happened earlier that night. Stopping to rest on the fountain feeling guilty thoughts for not helping Daylena and minun who are now lost. Plusle walked to with Dave with a look of sorrow on his face and rubbed his cheeks against his arm trying to comfort him when he saw an old man with a mud brown robe approaching them.
Stopping a few feet away from them he began to speak.
"I suppose your looking for someone," the old man said in a scratchy voice
Dave looked up at the old man whose bald head gleamed from the fresh new light from the rising sun.
"How did you know that, "Dave asked probingly
The old man winced,.
"Well about everyone is looking for someone in this town sadly, "
Dave gave the man a puzzled look.
"What do mean? "
The old man came closer and widend his eyes.
"A few days ago people just started to vanish.children.first it was one then it was three, four, five and then ten. That's when the city started to get in an uproar and panic rushed over the city. People started to think maybe it had to do something with.the curse. "
Dave remembered before when he overhead people speaking of the curse at the city hall earlier.
"Yes I heard of this so called curse but it doesn't make since.what is this curse? " Dave said now wanting to no more.
The old man nodded.
"A decade ago a small group of children headed for a cave not to far north of here. They would pretend they were pokemon masters and the such I suppose. Yet something terrible happened up there, a young girl and her pokemon never came back. The kids were in a hysteria, they complained of ghost pokemon.and one large eye they could not forget. The kids said something about a curse..they said that the little girl was only the first that would disappear and the one with the single eye would be back for others in time. Yet the town was peaceful.in till now."
Dave had a terrible feeling in the pit of his stomach from what he just heard. Still he knew he had to do something about Daylena and minun and those others who vanished. He decided he would venture to the place the man mentioned..the cave to the north.
"You must be careful when you venture there, many have went there and never returned" said the man looking at Dave.
Dave shook his head.
"Im going to get my sister, "said Dave walking north.
Finding his way upon a path he followed it north climbing a few rocks here and there, time was strangely moving fast the moon already high in the sky it looking down upon Dave and plusle. Dave then came upon a rock face with a large hole in it; Dave slowly approached it when he saw something in the corner of his eye, a small girl.
"Eliza wait!" he shouted.
Eliza then pointed towardd the ground, pointing at a few glass like fragments that lay there broken.
"Help us!" Eliza screeched
Dave ran toward Eliza and jumped toward her hoping to stop her from escaping when he strangly flew through her and hit the ground with a loud thud. Lying on the ground he looked back at Eliza who vanished into thin air with her ralts.
Picking up one of the glass shards he raced into the cave now even more determined to find his sister. After a while of running through the damp cave he came upon a dead end that was well lighted from the starlight flooding into the cave.
"No. "Dave said lightly losing hope.
"Pla pla pla!" said plusle letting out a soft cry, pointing at a strange stone.
Dave examined the stone which resembled that shard he picked up earlier, he then placed the stone next to what seemed to be a slot next to the stone that plusle pointed out. Suddenly the sound of stone grinding filled the cave the dead end strangely moving back and sliding to the side revealing stairs that went deep into darkness. Gulping Dave started to travel down the damp stairs that seemed to twist down forever. Hearing what seemed to be chanting Dave slowed down and peeked around a corner and he shudderd from what he saw.
A dozen duskull floating around chanting there names one after the other, two blue flames floated eerily on the wall, lighting up the small stone room to reveal dozen of small children sitting on the ground with there eyes closed seeming to be sleeping. Dave scaned the area and spotted Daylena also seeming to be in a deep sleep with minun sleeping on her side, without thinking Dave stammerd into the room when a line of duskull blocked the children.
"Plusle use thunderwave now! Make it a good one! "Dave said hopping back surprised.
Plusle hopped from Dave's arm and released a wave of electric energy from his squeezed cheeks that directly hit the line of duskull immobilizing them.
Dave then ran to Daylena and shook her furiously.
"Wake up Daylena wake up! " Dave said while shaking his twin sister.
The blue flames blew lightly forward and a burst of cold air filled the small room with enough force to push Dave back. Then from the center of the wall a large grey pokemon with a single eye emerged floating out of the wall with ease, plusle hopped into Dave's arms as he slowly moved back.
"Day.lena..please wake up," Dave said scared half to death.
"She won't wake up! Dusclops won't let it happen, "Eliza said softly
Dave turned to see Eliza standing blankly holding her ralts.
"I'll be back under his control soon! Escape while you still can," Eliza said now screaming.
Dave then started to put everything together, thinking back he rememberd reading about dusclops, that it has the ability to put people under his control.
"Eliza you have to fight it! You can fight it!" Dave said walking toward Eliza.
Eliza shook her head.
"No no I can't he's to strong!"
Dave came next to Eliza, dusclops now angering.
"Eliza I believe in you I know you can do it" he said know getting louder
" Pla pla! " plusle shouted adding in.
Eliza fell to her knees and began to sob shaking her head, dusclops lets out a groan and began to fly at Dave and plusle at a blazing speed; Plusle cheeks began to spark; Dave prepared for dusclops strike when suddenly Eliza tilted her head up, eyes glowing a bright white.
" Im not gonna let you hurt anyone else like you hurt me! " Eliza said screaming!
Her ralts eyes begin to glow also and together they raised there hands shooting streams of brilliant light at dusclops that struck him with a great force. One of the sleeping kids let out a small cough while another began to move, all the kids began to wake.
"Dave please go! Take my friends with you save everyone before it's too late! "Eliza shouted
Dave shook his head.
"No Eliza your coming with us" Dave says shouted back.
Eliza smiled.
"No.Im already gone..but you freed me in a different way. Now go before it's too late and take everyone".
Dusclops screamed in agony while the white light wrapped around his round body. Dave called everyone out of the cave and the kids began to flow out. Grabbing Daylena's hand he rushed out also following the large group of kids, looking back he saw dusclops starting to grow larger as the white light consumed him. Out the cave the Dave followed the kids a farther distance away when a large beam of light shot out the mouth of the cave lighting up the whole area in a blinding light.

A sunrise broke over the small city again kids are returning to there parents some after over ten years when Dave and Daylena are greeted by the old man and fellow town's people.
"We owe you much thanks for you have saved are small town, how may we ever repay you" the old man says cheerfully.
Dave begins to open his mouth when Daylena's interrupts.
"How about the direction to the nearest gym! "she says loudly
The old man nods and smiles.
"The next gym is just over the hill "says the old man pointing west.
After receiveing different gifts from the town people the twins set off west to finally challenge there first gym leader, though daylena doesn't remember much of what happened she knows a lot just happened yet Dave knows so much more. Dave then closes his eyes and thinks about this grand adventure he just had when lightly in his ears he hears a " thank you " in the soft voice that could only be Eliza with he little ralts.
