Chapter Six- Signs of the Demons (Let me tell you right now, you're probably going to KILL me for what I'm going to do!)
Maxie and Archie finished their conversation in the back room, and then headed out to the Orb Chamber. Each pushed a secret switch behind the two Orb Pillars. The floor between the pillars started to slide sideways, revealing a staircase.
"After you.", said Archie.
"Why thank you."
Maxie led the two downstairs, flipping a lever along the wall as they descended. The sliding trap door started to close, and the wall torches illuminated.
When they reached the end of the staircase, they entered a spacious room that was just like the Orb Chamber, with two high pillars. Only these pillars went straight through the ceiling.
Maxie walked forward and stood on a red panel, while Archie stood on a blue one. Soon, the pillars in the room started to slide downwards, and the Orbs at the top were inside. Two more sliding trap doors shut above them, and the chamber was sealed once again.
All was not finished though, because then they turned to a last, wall panel. Pushing in on the wall panel brought up a third pillar between the Red and Blue Orb Pillars. On this pillar, sat a Clear Orb, with a slow swirling dark mist of some kind inside. It almost breathed evil into the room.
"Now the preparations are complete, I believe, and it's time for the real Orb Ceremony."
"What is it that we shall do?"
"I'll have to say, that the people need no more threats today. And I would like to observe how the Empress and Mewtwo get on with the people. They are heroes, and not only that, but amazingly powerful. Will they flock to them with gratefulness? Or will they fear them, out of not really knowing their motives and their true strength? And besides, she does deserve a rest. She barely defeated the first Absol she encountered. Yes, she only used her Vaporeon to fight with it, when all three of them could have easily killed it, but that was a very, very weak Absol with little skill. It tried to rage around them only to realize that it couldn't hit non-humans, something everyone knows... Everyone knew it besides it, I guess. But that one was left from before we had as many followers."
Archie walked over to the Blue Orb, and it glowed. Not extremmely brightly, but not too dully either.
"It shows we have quite a following, but still, there are many who do not believe."
"That's too bad, considering that we need almost the entire population's energy to power the Orb Magic."
"Yes. Everyone who believes and opens their mind to Groudon and Kyogre, also open their heart's energy to us. We'll carry out the prophecy by using their power.
"I know. It's too bad that such a tremendous energy is required, but the reward at the end is far too sweet to let this pass by."
"Yes, shall I read it one more time?"
"Why not?"
"When all three Orbs of Power are united, the Fire, Groudon, and the Water, Kyogre, and the Spirit, the two primary Orbs will seek strength. Strength of the heart gathered into the Orbs transfer into the Orb of Spirit, and it's ability will grow. When all believe, and all heart is in the Orbs, the Spirit Orb shall release it's Ultimate Demon, for use by the ones who freed it. The Ultimate Demon is the Ultimate Dragon, and the Ultimate Dragon is the strongest creature of all. Rayquaza."
"Yes. We shall use the Rayquaza's powers to control the world, and go from temple leaders to kings!"
"Ha, yes we will."
"So--let's consult our Demon and see what we can do."
Peering into the Clear Orb, the mist swirled and formed the shape of an Absol.
"Ah, same option as before, casting a lesser Demon. It's so many hearts of the people for a weak demon, so many for a stronger one, and all of them for the Greatest One. We're not going to cast another Absol, there are still many of them roaming around. Enough to do the job. When the people are frightened--they'll believe anything if they think it'll save them. Since we more or less control the Absols, we can tell them where to strike, and when, and even when to stop. It's not like we need the Empress, we can have them believe in us all by ourselves, but we look better as simple Temple leaders, not fighters, and some would try to stay loyal to the Empress. Having her do our fighting, and also gain hearts, means that when we use her for our own purposes, and any hearts she gains will in turn be ours. She's someone who they can really believe in, so we'll use her to gather all the remaining hearts and discard her after that."
"And what of Mewtwo? Should he prove to be a stumbling block, he will be a force we cannot defeat. We can not harm him with the lesser Absols, and casting stronger forms requires more hearts we won't get because he will halt the Empress."
"Yes, yes, I thought of that myself. But, the one thing you have to keep in mind is that he doesn't particularly like humans. He's in this for Nyreami's sake. If we can turn him away from Nyreami, he'll lose intrest in the whole situation, because he has no other reason to care."
"But how will we turn him away from her? I mean, maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I think there's something going on between those two.. They're always together, and they retreated into the same room last night. Of course, that's not really evidence, just something interesting."
"Yes, it is. The messenger this morning said that they weren't sleeping together or something, because he was in the chair, but that's not truly reliable when the creature is psychic and could have sensed him and moved, you know."
"You're right. If they are together, it will be harder to break them apart. Much harder."
"But still, I think I have a plan for getting it to work."
"You always have excellent plans."
"I know. But enough talking. We'll get back to "work" tomorrow. Today--why don't we take a day off. Since our Empress is getting one, it's only fitting that the future kings of the Earth have one as well."
"Heh. Yes."
Maxie walked over to where his counterpart stood, a look in his eyes like that of some evil creature, that had a plan. In a way, that was what he was.
Archie just awaited him, and gave a smile. This was definitely better than working. Maxie approached and put hit arms around his waist, leaning forward for a kiss. He didn't do it gently, but he wasn't a gentle person. Pushing him forward, they soon were against the cool, stone wall on the other side of the chamber. Maxie's crushing lips were forceful, and he clearly showed the lust he had for his companion as he ravaged him to the floor.
Just before he lost control of himself, he rose to his feet quickly.
"We are doing this in a most uncivilized manner, are we not? Why don't we go to our usual spot for this?"
"Another excellent plan."
Bringing Archie to his feet, he pulled him closer, his arm fiercly around his waist as they retreated into the far section of the chamber, shrouded with a darkness so think it could choke those who didn't have the ability to breathe such evil. There were sounds of a stone door opening, and then after that, the sounds of their harsh, vicious sex.
Their love was pure and true in every way. But it wasn't the way you would think.
End Chapter Six (I just know everyone wants to KILL me for writing Maxie and Archie like that, I couldn't help it! Don't blame me, blame the Evil Fanfic Idea Fairy! And also, I know this chapter was REALLY short. Don't worry though, because of the way this is set up, the next chapter is going to be REALLY long! So if you can forgive me for throwing Maxie and Archie into a twisted relationship, forgive me for the short chapter and I'll see you at Chapter Seven!)
