"Wow... Who's she?" Alex pointed at Meg.
"She's the one from my Bishi story." I responded. Alex jumped to her feet.
"YoumeanshehasYusuke?!" she squealed. While six of the girls looked confused, Meg and I actually understood Alex's question.
"Yes, I/she have/has Yusuke." Meg and I said at the same time. We then looked at each other. "Weird." We both said.
"Very." The other six agreed.
"Ok, I did NOT need that in stereo!" Alex said.
"Nor did I. Megan, where are we? It's obvious that we're not in Kanto anymore." Came a new voice. I froze. That was a Psychic Pokémon! I slowly turned to where Muna was. Sitting next to her on my bed was-
"Um... Megan... That's an Espeon." Alex said shakily.
"I see her..." I said.
"And she's on your bed."
"I see that too."
"Confusingly weird?"
"Yes."
"What kind of demon is that?" Maemi and Miko asked at the same time.
"She's not a demon." Meg, Alex, Muna, and I said. "She's an Espeon." I said before the others could.
"I bet you wouldn't know what Pokémon Divina is!" The Espeon challenged.
"Unown letter D." I said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Alex, as if knowing what was going to happen, pulled on my shirt collar.
"No fighting with the Pokémon." She said, pulling harder. I backed up, not wanting my favorite shirt, the one that said 'ANIME FREAK' on it, to be stretched. Muna checked the Pokéballs on her belt.
"Weird," she said, "Only Shinrai's ball is here." She commented. That seemed to mean something to Meg. She felt for her Bishi Balls.
"Strange, only Sesshomaru's ball is here..." she murmured. That rang a bell in my head somewhere.
"There's a connection there, I know it." I said. Then it hit me. "I got it! Shinrai was YOUR starter," I pointed to Muna, "and Sesshomaru was YOURS!" I said to Meg. Glancing at the clock, I grimaced. Midnight. I didn't realize just how fast time flies. "Hey, it's late. We'll figure this all out in the morning." I said. Everyone nodded and I proceeded to lay out huge blankets on the floor for sleeping space.
"You're taking this all pretty well." Alex commented after everything was all set up.
"The shock hasn't set in yet and then after that'll be the denial. I still think that this is all a really weird dream." I said. After locking the trapdoor open, I set out the fold-up stairs instead of the rope ladder. Instantly, two cats came up the steps, one my cat and the other my mother's.
"About time. I haven't seen you two all day. Where's Casey?" I said. I suddenly got up. "Shit, I left her outside!" I ran down the stairs and let said cat in. Going back upstairs, I found my own cat on my computer chair and my mother's cat in my bed.
"Cat person?" Maemi asked.
"You're a cat demon, aren't you?" I mumbled, not really listening. I crossed another day off of my calendar and checked the moon phase.
"Hey, what's the next phase?" Alex asked me, knowing all about my incarnations.
"Good question..." Maite said.
"Last quarter, tomorrow." I said. I heard a faint 'shit' from Maite. "I can give you a place to crash, Maite." I told her, hinting that I knew something she wanted to keep a secret. She looked surprised, but nodded. Switching off the light, we all lay in the dark, wondering what the hell any of us did to deserve this. Heh, it was probably me in the first place, for creating them...
-the next morning-
I woke up to light shining in through the east window, just like it did every day. I tried to move, but my legs were pinned down, probably by my fat cat. Raising my head a little, I saw that it was Maite's puppy instead of my cat.
'So it WASN'T a dream! And my incarnations are real!'
Gently, I nudged the puppy awake. It looked at me and then jumped off the bed and joined Maite. Carefully, I stepped over the young women to get to the trapdoor. It was closed, a sign that Alex was up and going already. If I knew anything about myself, I knew that none of my incarnations would be up right now. I silently got dressed in some old clothes; I had a feeling that things were going to get a bit messy later.
Quietly lowering the stairs, I walked down and into the living room. Alex was on the couch, watching an old episode of Yu-Gi-Oh. Grabbing a pack of Pop-Tarts, I sat down next to her. My mother's cat jumped into my lap as I sat down.
"Ya know, NekoNeko would be good to have around right now." I commented as the cat curled up in my lap, demanding attention.
"'NekoNeko'?" Alex asked.
"Oh, I never told you? In my Pokémon story, she was gonna get a Persian and name her NekoNeko. The Persian would know Psychic, so her affinity would kick in." I explained. Alex looked like she only half understood, but beggars can't be choosers. I decided to change the topic.
"Hey, Al-chan, you notice how a few of the incarnations are older than they are in my story?" I asked.
"Yeah, I did notice that..." Alex said. I gave a short laugh.
"Yeah, watch, we go to one of the worlds and it's like ten years after my story or something..." I commented. My eyes widened as I thought about what I said. Alex seemed to be thinking along the same lines.
"...Watch that actually be true." Alex said. I nodded.
"Yeah, watch." I muttered. We watched TV for another few minutes and then something strange happened. I looked over at Alex, who had started to pant.
"Al-chan? What's wrong?" I asked.
"The feeling again."
"What feeli-oh... The feeling from when they all appeared?"
"Yeah, that one."
"Ah, ok, lemme get the others. Which direction's it coming from?" Alex pointed to the left side of the house. East. Nodding, I headed upstairs.
---
Ten minutes later, the nine of us were at the park.
"Al-chan, where's it coming from?" I asked. Alex looked slightly panicked.
"I don't know, it's coming from everywhere!" she said. I sighed.
"Ok, let's spread out. I'm about to majorly rip off a thing Genkai said once, but if any of you find it, make a noise we'll all hear. Either scream or blow something up." We all nodded and went in separate directions.
Alex and I were searching the north end of the field when Alex started panting again.
"The feeling?" I asked.
"Yeah, from the right." She responded. We went about fifty feet when we saw it.
It was like looking into a smoke-filled mirror. Silver mist was swirling around in circles. Cupping my hands around my mouth, I managed to tear my eyes away from it to yell out: "HEY, WE FOUND IT! NORTH END!" Five seconds later, the other seven were assembled.
"Where's it lead?" Miko asked.
"Dunno." Maite responded. Without a word, I stuck my head in and looked around. Woods, woods, and more woods. Taking my head out, I asked, "Hey, any of you recognize this place?" Meg stuck her head in and took a look.
"Yeah, this is the Yu Yu Hakusho territories, where I first caught Hiei and Yusuke." She said.
"Good, climb in." Alex said. Without another word, we all stepped into the portal. Once Melody, the last of us, was through the portal, it vanished.
"That's not a good sign..." Alex said.
ok, R&R, tell me if you like.
