Monster Rancher-Souls of New Evil

By: VTamer01

Disclaimer: I don't own Monster Rancher and if I did, the games would have the anime star Genki in them as well as Holly. My apologies for this story taking so long, but I'm making corrections to the first chapter and make this shorter.

Chapter 1-Farewells and Incidents

It has been awhile since Moo has been defeated and everyone in the monster world was at peace. That is, until a new evil unknown to the monster world decides to make himself known that he means to take over the world.

His name is Inferno and he is not a monster, he's more like a being of supernatural power and he came from another dimension. He sent out his baddies to seize cities across the world endangering a lot of families and people into surrendering.

And as of right now he is in control of all the continents in the monster world. He's spreading rapidly throughout the world placing his domes for his top commanding armies to uphold his power that he is in control. Trouble is brewing and this unknown force of evil already gets it out of hand.

People have lost hope that if anyone is going to save them. Alas, there is hope. The former courageous six have taken it upon them to stop whatever it is that threatens to take over the world. Holly, Yosho, and the monsters decided to take a long journey to destroy the domes of the top commanding officers and bring out Inferno to destroy him.

Inferno has heard of these rebels and has told his top commanding officers (the leaders of the domes and their army), to stop this threat to his power. Now the real games begin…

It's around four-thirty p.m. in the afternoon and a 20 yr. old Genki is at his dorm typing a 10-page essay paper that is due in one week when someone knocks on his door.

"Who is it?" Genki yells from his computer desk which is in the living room.

"It's me Sakura. I'm just wondering if you want to go out to a movie or something," Sakura answers.

Genki gets up and opens the door to reveal an 18 yr. old brown-haired girl with slender legs and a perfect body. Her skin color is like a peach. She's wearing a blue vest over a black shirt and black jeans. She also has on a blue jean jacket with some Nike tennis shoes.

The girl looked back at him and smiled as she looks over at Genki wearing a black-hooded sweater and black sweatpants with his trusty old orange cap backwards. He's also wearing some brown boots that looked exactly the same as his old brown boots he wore as a child. Genki has also gotten taller with an athletic but muscular body. His hair has grown a lot and he wears it over his temple like he use to. The rest of his hair is tied up in a ponytail. Genki smiled back at her and let her in.

"So Sakura, what brings you here?" Genki questioned as he closed the door.

"I already told you that I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies or did you forget that already?" Sakura said annoyed.

Genki laughed ashamedly and sat down on the sofa, which Sakura went to sit beside him. She automatically scooted over to him as Genki started to feel a little uncomfortable.

"Umm, Sakura, don't you think that I should get back to my essay? It is important that I turn this in," Genki told her.

"Please Genki-san; I really want us to go out to a movie to spend sometime together, please?" Sakura pleaded.

"Okay we'll go out to the movies. You and those puppy eyes can get you anything you want huh, Sakura?" Genki commented, as he looked at her and sighed.

Sakura hugged him and gave him a long kiss on the lips, which Genki returned passionately. Inside of Genki's heart though, it was telling him that this doesn't feel right.

Back in the monster world, on a hill that's a little far from the nearest town, is a big cabin with a barn and a carriage parked on the side of it. The cabin was made of bricks and cement more advanced than the older versions of it. It has a chimney on the roof and right now smoke is coming out of it.

Inside the cabin, there were monsters sitting by the fireplace waiting for dinner to be served. Tiger and Mint are snuggling up close to each other telling how much they love one another. Hare and Galaxia are sitting on chairs holding hands. Mocchi and Valetta are holding each other close to add to the body warmth. Golem and Undine are sitting by the window staring at the moonlight reminiscing how they first met. Suezo is sighing to himself wishing that he could find a mate.

Yosho and Elena are at the dinner table looking in the kitchen as Holly is preparing a farewell feast. She's making turkey, sweet potatoes, yams, greens, spinach, chicken, and macaroni and cheese. The dinner is finished and she calls out to her family to go sit at the table. Holly brings in the food, which is in pots and pans as they begin to get ready for something to eat. All of them sat down at the table and prayed over their food and began to eat.

"Holly, this is delicious. I've never eaten this good before," Yosho complemented.

Elena also agreed with her husband. In fact, they all nodded to Holly's cooking. Holly, blushing, could only scratch the back of her head as she began to eat. When they finished eating, all of the food was gone. Holly looked at her monster friends and saw that their bellies were big.

"I'll never have a good meal like that in a while when we go on this journey," Tiger commented.

"Yeah you're absolutely right about that Tiger," Hare added.

Their wives were looking at them depressed that they were going to leave them. Yosho got up and stretched as he helped Holly pick up the dishes and take them to the kitchen. He began to wash them as Holly went back into the living room and sat on a chair. Holly sighed and looked at her friends who were already looking depressed.

"What's wrong you guys, didn't the food cheer you up about this journey?" Holly asked.

"Yeah, but we are going to miss our wives, chi," Mocchi sighed as he looked at her.

The others looked at Mocchi and nodded. Holly could only agree that her monster companions will feel empty inside without their mates to be beside them.

"I know that this is going to be hard for all of you, but the only way we could live in peace is to get rid of this evil before our lives can be destroyed," Holly stated.

The monsters looked at her and nodded, knowing she is right.

"That's right. We have no fears, chi!" Mocchi yelled standing up.

Tiger stood up and nodded also. "We have everything it takes to beat this Inferno character," he stated.

Golem began to stand up as well, but the cabin shook in his attempt. "Sorry. Tiger's right we can do it," Golem stated with a sweatdrop.

Hare, the last one to stand up, looked at them in arrogance. "With my smarts and everything, you guys will need me on this journey," Hare said proudly.

Holly, Tiger (with his jaw), and Mocchi, threw pillows at him from the sofa. Hare looked at them shocked before spitting out feathers.

The next day, after a restful sleep, Holly, Yosho, and the five monsters emerged from the cabin looking at their family that they will soon leave behind.

"Goodbye, Valetta. I'll be alright and I promise to return to you," Mocchi waved.

Valetta ran up to him and gave him a long hug. "I'll hold you to that promise Mocchi," Valetta cried.

Yosho gave Elena a hug and a kiss as she returned it crying.

"You'll be safe won't you Yosho?" Elena asked through sobs.

Yosho had a few tears drop out of his eye also. "Don't worry Elena, I'll be back before you know it," Yosho said in confidence.

Tiger was silent as he looked at Mint, knowing that she already knew he was going to return someday.

"I'll see you later Mint. I love you," Tiger said in a calm voice.

Mint looked at him through misty eyes. "I know Tiger. Take care," Mint cried.

Hare began to hug his wife while starting to cry.

"Galaxia my dear, I'll miss you not being by my side. I'll think of you each night wondering how you're doing without me," he cried.

Galaxia cried also, hugging him even tighter. "I know Hare, please be careful. I don't know what I would do if you died," she sobbed.

Golem and Undine were looking at the small pond that was at bottom of the hill where the cabin was. They had decided to take a walk looking at it.

Undine looked up at Golem with sad eyes. "Golem, I know you must go on this journey and help your friends stop the evil that is plaguing the planet, but I don't know if I'll see you again," Undine said, before starting to cry.

Golem looked at her and picked her up as she cried even more into his chest.

"Undine, don't be sad. I'll return back to you because I love you. Remember we are soul mates nothing will ever break the bond between us. My friends can do it but they will need my help because we are a team. A friend of mine taught us this and we will always remember that. I just hope that he can return and help us fight this monster," Golem comforted, which made her smile. Undine nodded and pulled Golem into a kiss.

Granity looked at Holly who had tears coming out her eyes. She tried to go comfort her but Holly looked at her and gave her a forced smile. Suezo turned away as he wasn't given a goodbye hug and kiss. Holly noticed his distance and decided to go give him some comfort.

"Suezo, I know how you feel but don't worry, you'll find someone soon enough. Maybe on this journey, you'll probably encounter someone who'll make you happy," Holly comforted.

Suezo looked up at her and smiled. "You're right Holly. Maybe I will get lucky and find a mate on this journey. I'm just worried about you," Suezo said glumly.

Holly gave him a forced smile as well and hugged her longtime friend.

"Don't worry about me Suezo, I'll be just fine," Holly stated lightly.

Suezo looked at her before nodding and yelled out to the others.

"Alright gang, let's get moving. The more we stay here the more we lose our chances of freedom," Suezo yelled.

The gang waved their last goodbye before setting off. The others, who were left behind, were looking at the rest of their family depart, wishing that they would return safely.

"Good luck you guys, we're counting on you," Elena whispered to herself.

It's now six-forty p.m. in the evening back in Genki's world, and Genki and Sakura had just walked out of the movie theatre and were now in the car, driving to their next destination. They had decided to stop at a restaurant and were now waiting in line.

"I'm glad we decided to have dinner, Genki. This is so romantic." Sakura sighed happily.

Genki looked at her with a smile, before shifting his attention upwards at the night sky, sighing to himself.

"Yeah I guess. I really need to get back home and finish that essay," he said with an impatient air.

Sakura looked at him and huffed in slight anger.

"Don't worry about that paper now, Genki. You'll get it done in time. Now focus on our date or I'll have to smack you in the face to knock some sense into you!" she exclaimed while motioning her hand to make a point.

Genki looked at her and shivered a little before nodding his head in agreement. The people that were around them, looked at them in silence before carrying on with their business. They managed to get a table after waiting in line for an hour. Genki started to look around and before getting very impatient with the waiter taking so long.

Sakura stared at him and shook her head sighing. "Can you be patient? I mean, we are in a restaurant you know," she said in annoyance.

Genki got up and started to call the nearest waiter or waitress. "Hello! Can someone please take our order? We're starving here!" he exclaimed while gesturing with his right hand to his stomach.

People were looking at him whispering and annoyed that someone can be so rude and impatient. Sakura stared at him in shock and embarrassment that her boyfriend can be so immature. The manager came out, and it was a female who looked good in her mid 40's with auburn hair that came in a ponytail that went as far as her waist. Her skin was a very light peach color. She wore her executive clothes that were black with a white business shirt tucked on the inside of her black slacks. She looked pretty pissed off at Genki who stood there with a huge sweatdrop.

Genki glanced at her nametag and the tag had Jill on it. Jill came up to him nose to nose and Sakura got a little edgy that this woman was touching him. Genki began to blush a little as she began to yell at him for disturbing her customers and employees.

"Listen young man, we don't accept impatient people making noise in our restaurant. We understand that you are ready to eat but you have to wait until the waiter or waitress finishes with a certain customer, okay?" Jill yelled nearly turning red in the cheeks from anger and embarrassment.

Genki nodded his head ashamedly and sat back down in his seat. Sakura turned her head away from the people that were giving her disapproving looks before glancing at Genki who had his eyes looking down at the floor, sweating a little.

"Well I hope you're happy that you made that little scene. Genki, sometimes I can't even understand why I put up with you. You totally embarrassed me as well as disrespecting the manager's restaurant. You better hope that we get something to eat from this place or I'll never forgive you for what you have done today," Sakura said angrily.

Genki looked at her and put his head down. A few minutes later, a waiter came by and it was a man who had black hair and an Irish accent. His skin was very pale.

"Can I take your order?" the waiter asked with a notepad in his right hand and pen in the other.

Sakura spoke first as she looked at her menu. "I'll have a shrimp salad with a New England lobster tail and also I will like some Pepsi, please."

The waiter wrote that down on his notepad as he turned to Genki who looked kind of blue in the face. "And what will you have sir?"

Genki glanced at his menu and started to speak, "I'll have Mozzarella bread sticks with a side order of fries and a Coke, please."

The waiter had finished writing down the orders and walked away. Genki and Sakura waited patiently for five minutes while the waiter came and brought them some rolls and water. When he came back after the next fifteen minutes, he was holding their food on trays and he began to place the food they ordered on the table. Sakura looked at her food dreamily as it was prepared deliciously. Genki looked at his food and sighed as he began to dig in.

An hour later, they had finished eating their dinner and Genki had to pay the bill. He walked out the restaurant with an angry glare on his face because of Sakura not paying half of the bill. As he walked to his car, he sullenly opened the door on Sakura's side of the car and as soon as she got in he closed it. He then went to his side of the car and opened the door and got in. Genki turned on the ignition and waited for the car to warm up. Sakura then looked at him before sighing in annoyance. She decided to turn on the radio and jammed up the volume. Genki flinched at the music but didn't say anything as he pulled out of the parking lot.

After about thirty minutes of driving, the car pulled up into the dorm's parking lot and Genki got out and went to Sakura's side to open the door for her. He turned his alarm on his white Infiniti car with brown leather seats and silver hubcaps. When they got in, Sakura went to her room that was down the hall from where Genki's room is. She didn't even say goodnight to him as she went in her room. Genki looked at her as she closed the door and sighed.

He then opened the door to his room only to discover that a strange thing had happened when he was gone. His whole room was a total disaster area. It's like someone broke into his room and decided to wreck everything. Genki looked at his room in shock and fear.

"Who could have done this? I remember locking the door and checking to see if it was locked. No one could have gotten in here," he asked himself trying to recall if he made a mistake.

Genki turned his eyes to the side and noticed a white light in his room.

"What is that light coming from? I don't recall leaving my light on in my bedroom," he asked himself.

Genki gulped and began to move towards his bedroom. 'I hope no one is in there because if they're responsible for my room, they'll pay dearly for what they have done,' Genki thought bitterly.

As he approached the door, someone had opened the front door. Genki turned his head around and noticed that it was Sakura. Sakura walked in and almost fainted at the sight of Genki's room being a total mess.

"Genki, what happened here? And why is your room glowing white?" Sakura questioned in a flat tone.

Genki shrugged his shoulders at her and turned his head back towards the door of his bedroom, which was glowing white. He reached the doorknob, took one deep breath and opened the door. When he opened it, Sakura went by his side and gasped. Genki looked at his room in shock as well. They both saw that it wasn't his room but more of a warp in the space-time continuum or at least something like that.

"Genki, what the heck is this? Is this some kind of project you're working on?" Sakura asked suspiciously.

Genki didn't even turn to look at her or answer her question. All he did was stare at that warp hole.

'I don't know what's going on here but something's telling me to go right through that hole,' Genki thought.

Sakura began to get impatient with him. "Hello, is anybody in there? or are you to dumb to answer my question?" she asked him in annoyance.

Genki turned to the side and looked at her. She looked back at him with a neutral face. She then was about to say something, when Genki ran to the hole and dived through. Sakura's mouth dropped all the way to the ground. After she recovered from her shock, she thought she should go after him.

'I don't know but maybe I should go in that hole over there and get Genki back, because if I don't I'll be kicked out of college for attempted murder and be sent to jail. Stupid Genki would do something so idiotic,' Sakura thought and sighed as she ran in the portal to get her boyfriend back.

Genki was falling in what seemed like an endless vortex and its contents inside were molecules and atoms spiraling into some sort of a cyclone. He closed his eyes and dreamed a wonderful dream, but was it a dream or not? To Genki it seems like it is but it isn't what it seems to be…
