Dracula's Castle - Ballroom

"What just happened ? Where is this ?" Pit who was teleported away looked at his surroundings, he seemed to be in a wide, bright, fancy room, looking like a ballroom used to host dance parties at castles in contrast to the dreary looking castle foyer.

However Pit isn't alone as he saw numerous dancing ghosts, most likely dead nobles who commit evil deeds and now forced to dance for eternity as punishment.

"Dancing ghosts ?" As Pit looked around the place a dancing ghosts waltz towards Pit, forcing him to dodge.

And at that time Palutena contacted him. ("Pit, I'm glad I found you, it seems you stumbled on a teleportation trap, it separates you from everyone else, that Gruntilda is no joke, it's very rare for a witch to be open minded enough to learn science.")

("Lady Palutena, so that's what happens, I'm in some kind of a ballroom full of dancing ghosts.") Replied Pit.

("They're Ghost Dancers, fallen nobles who committed evil deeds, and since they died without repenting for their sins, they're forced to dance for eternity as their punishments, never get to experience peace after death, and of course Dracula snatched them all to be his minions.") Explained Palutena. ("Don't let them touch you, or else you'll be feeling ghostly chills from them.")

"I know, I have to find the others." As Pit tried to leave the ballroom, something is flying from his right side towards him, Pit notices this and able to blocked it with his blades. That something turns out to be a rapier.

"A rapier ? Where'd it ?" As Pit wondered where the rapier come from he heard a voice speaking to him.

"Not bad being able to block that attack, I guess you really can't underestimate an angel." A masculine voice can be heard.

"But let see you win against our perfect combination." This time a feminine voice was heard.

A male and female ghosts manifested themselves in front of Pit, the man dressed in black tailcoat tuxedo and black pants, he also wearing a gray mask on his face, the woman is a red haired woman wearing a gray mask and blue dress.

"I'm not scared of you ! Do you think a ghost can win against an angel !?" Pit refused to cowed.

And at that moment Palutena spoke to Pit telepathically. ("Don't underestimate them Pit, that's Fred Askare and Paula Abghoul, former nobles from the past who sold their soul to Dracula, despite being excellent dancers themselves it was never enough for them, and now they're bound to serve Dracula for their selling their soul.")

"And it was worth it, what terrible luck for you to be sent here, we will make sure you won't be able to leave this place." Fred then swings his rapier at Pit who jumped backwards to dodge it.

"Do you really believe that !? Humans who sold their soul ended up being tortured for eternity ! You already a great dancers yourself, why do this !?" Exclaimed Pit.

"Why !? Because we know we won't stay on top forever, that's why we decided to make a pact with Dracula, so that no matter what we will be unmatched at dancing." Explained Paula.

"You sold your soul for this !? Fine, I guess no more room for talking, I have to get back to my friends, and I will cut down anyone stopping me." Pit pointed his blade at the two ghosts.

"We accept your challenge." Fred and Paula took a dance position and begin fighting Pit.

The Dancing Spectres waltz their way towards Pit, attacking him by rotating their rapier around them, as Paula and Fred combined their ballroom dancing and rapier attacks, forcing Pit to defend against Paula and Fred rotating and continuous strikes.

Several of the Ghost Dancers waltz towards Pit and passed by him, the ghosts intangibility gives him ghostly chills as Pit is temporary stunned, giving Fred and Paula an opening to attack Pit as they slashed his chest, knocking Pit down.

Palutena then spoke to Pit again offering a way out. ("Pit I can get you out of there.")

However Pit rejected Palutena's offer. ("I'm sorry Lady Palutena, but if I escaped they just gonna chased me across the castle, I have to put them down here and now !")

("Alright, then I will lend you my help.") Palutena bestow the Power of Flight to Pit as his wings glow. ("Fred and Paula are more of a close range fighters so I advice it's better to keep your distance, and since they're ghosts you can't destroy them, I recommend using the Divine Bow to imprison them.")

("Roger that Lady Palutena !") As Fred about to strike again Pit flew above, allowing him to dodge the incoming attack, he flew to the upper platform and summoned his Meteor Bow and firing continuous spread shot all over the ballroom, as this is a weapon from the gods they're capable of harming ghosts, many of the Ghost Dancers got struck down from the arrows bombardment, putting the ghosts into frenzy, ruining their coordination, Pit then switched to Divine Bow, this one has the power to seal an enemy, as ghosts practically immortal Pit once again bombarded the ballroom with the Divine Bow, sealing many of the Ghost Dancers.

Paula and Fred teleported to Pit's side the two ghosts hurl their rapiers towards Pit, attempting to stab him, but Pit summoned his Guardian Orbitars, blocking the attacks, Fred teleported to the right side and swings his rapier, only for Pit to telekinetically move one of the Orbitar to block Fred's attack, Pit used the other Orbitar to fire a shot at Paula, blasting the ghost with an energy ball.

"Paula !" Fred flew to help Paula only for Pit to find the opening to strike him down with the Divine Bow, sealing the male ghost in the process.

"Fred ! No ! You're going to pay for this angel !" Paula conjure ghostly flames and hurl them all towards Pit, but he shot them down with the Divine Bow, nullifying any incoming attacks. She then summoned numerous rapiers and flew towards Pit, with the rapiers spinning around her.

Of course since Pit is also protected by the rotating orbitars he's able to be defended from the rapiers, however Paula then stopped the rapiers from spinning as she hurl some of the rapiers towards Pit, Pit able to block them using the orbitars, Pit then move the orbitars away to attack Paula only to find she disappeared.

"Where did she go ?" Unbeknownst to Pit Paula teleported behind him and strike him down, swinging her rapier vertically from above, as she teleported away again.

"Not good, she can attack me from anywhere like this, unless..." Pit then equipped the Aquarius Blade. As he about to plant the sword on the floor for a mass area attack, in a good timing Paula reappeared and Pit stabbed the floor, unleashing a freezing cold energy that freezes Paula.

Pit summoned his Divine Bow and fired a shot at Paula, sealing her along with he rest of the ghosts. Pit successfully defeated the Dancing Spectres.

("Pit you did it ! You defeated the Dancing Spectres.") Palutena complimented her angel.

("Thanks Lady Palutena, but I have to admit they weren't an easy opponent, I can't believe they sold their soul for you know...this.")

("Sometimes ambition can blind people, they wished to attain and maintain their power or position by any means necessary, even to the point of selling their soul, I just hope that you and your companion doesn't lose your way into achieving your goals.") Replied Palutena.

("No worries Lady Palutena, I'll make sure that never happens, now I better get a move on.") As Pit about to leave Palutena stopped him for a moment.

("You're still hurt from that Battle, here let me lend you a hand.") Palutena send a bottle of Drink of the Gods in front of Pit.

"Cool ! A bottle of Drink of the Gods, this will heal me in an instant, thank you Lady Palutena." Pit drinked the Drink of the Gods and in split second all his wounds were healed, and now he's ready to continued on and reunite with his teammates.

Ilex Forest

In the Johto region lies a forest located between Azalea Town and Goldenrod City, it's name is Ilex Forest, many of the trees in the forest are high and thick and located close to each other, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate the forest grounds, causing the forest to be looked to be locked in perpetual night even in daytime.

The heroes arrived here to return the Parases and Parasects that somehow ended up in Makna Forest, which is located in Bionis, Shulk's homeworld.

"Alright we're here, Ilex Forest." Announced Red. "Blue and Green can guide you through the forest, I need to go to Ecruteak City, I'll see you guys later." Red sent out Charizard, he hopped on Charizard's back and fly above the forest and head to Ecruteak City.

"This forest sure is dark, it's like if you're not careful you can get lost, Okay since you two are familiar with this place Ness and I will follow your lead." Said Shulk to Blue and Green.

"Yes, and..." Ness seemed to notice something behind Blue and Green. "Hey what's that behind you ?"

Blue and Green turned around to see a small shrine behind them, they turned back again and Blue explained it to Ness and Shulk. "That is a shrine made for the guardian of the forest."

"The guardian's name is Celebi, a Pokemon with the power to grow plants and time travel." Continued Green.

"Time travel ! You're not kidding are you !?" Ness asked in disbelief.

"Nope, Celebi's power is the real deal, anyway i won't be surprised if our enemies wished to get their hands on it, hopefully Celebi is able to stay hidden." Said Blue. "Okay then, let's do our mission."

"Right, we'll use our golden plates to detect the portals." Shulk pull out his golden plate.

"And my turn." Ness pull out numerous pokeballs and released the Parases and Parasects. "You're home now, I guess this is it for us."

As the heroes about to leave the Parasect tucked it's claw on Blue's shirt.

The pokemon trainer noticed and turned around. "What is it ?"

The Parasect walked away it's like it's asking the heroes to follow it.

"Maybe it wants us to follow it ?" Questioned Green.

"Maybe it still remember which part of the forest that leads to Makna Forest, I say we'll follow it." Suggested Shulk as the heroes agreed and follow the Parasect.

Meanwhile somewhere else in Ilex Forest...

"Alright, I guess that concludes my research here." A blue haired girl with pigtail style, wearing a red shirt, white jacket and yellow shorts putting her notebook inside her pink bagpack. "Thanks for keeping me company." The girl then went inside a tent and take a seat.

Inside the tent she spoke to a boy wearing a red jacket with black pants, he also wear a cap backwards.

"No problem Krys, there's always a lot to discover in Ilex Forest anyway, my explorer curiosity just can't be suppressed." Said the boy.

"Of course not Ethan, so you already search the entire nook and cranny of this forest ?" Asked Krys.

"Not yet, but I plan to explore the entire forest one day." Answered Ethan.

"Okay, just don't forget to come home once in a while, after this I'm heading back to Prof. Elm's lab." Continued Krys.

"Oh yeah, Prof. Elm taking you in as an assistant, how'd it go ?" Asked Ethan.

"It's great, sure things can get busy and difficult, but it is a part of the job, I feel like I can put my talent and knowledge to good use." Krys answered with a smile on her face. "Those Ledybas sure is protective of their eggs, though I suppose that's natural, protecting their children is a parents duty after all."

"Yeah, oh speaking of eggs, Pokemon Day Care isn't that far from here, maybe I'll drop by and pay Lyra a visit." Said Ethan.

"If I recall her grandma mistake you for her boyfriend when you first met her right." Ethan's face turns red as Krys is teasing him.

"I-it was an honest mistake, I mean Lyra's cute and all, but...ah what are you making me say !" Ethan exclaimed in embarrassment much to Krys enjoyment.

"Ahahaha I'm kidding...so uh, what about me ?" Krys murmured as Ethan unable to completely hear her.

"What did you say ?" Asked Ethan.

"Oh, nothing, nothing important at all, I think I had enough rest, I better check things out over there." As Krys about to leave the tent she saw a silhouettes of people moving suspiciously.

Route 37

Before Red arrived at Ecruteak City he return Charizard inside the pokeball and dropped by at Route 37, a forested area which is located south of Ecruteak City, he pulled out a pokeball and released the Stantler. "You're free now...but before I leave do you remember how you get into that forest in Hyrule ?"

The Stantler walked away as if it telling Red to follow it. Pikachu jumped Red's shoulder after Red sent it out from Pokeball and follow the Stantler with Red follow suit. "Sorry to put you in there, it's getting crowded in there." Red apologized to Pikachu for putting it inside a pokeball.

After they walk a few distance Red's golden plate give off a strange vibration, Red pulled it out and it seems it sensed a portal. "This is it, so this is where space is distorted, the mission was to marked this portal." Red then used the golden plate to mapped the portal into his golden plate.

Red then turned to the Stantler. "Could I ask you to hide this portal with your illusions ? The last thing I need is for more Pokemon to accidentally landed in another world."

The Stantler obeyed as it used it's illusion powers to hide the portal, making sure no Pokemon nor humans able to reached this part of the route.

"Thank you, I'm going to Bell Tower in Ecruteak City now, you take care okay." And with that Pikachu jumped into Red's shoulder as he sent out Charizard, Red hopped on Charizard's back and fly straight to Bell Tower.

Ilex Forest

Blue, Green, Ness, and Shulk still following the Parasect.

"This place is a complete opposite to Makna Forest, sunlight really doesn't reach the ground does it ?" Asked Shulk.

"Different world different geography, in our home region Viridian Forest is somewhat like Ilex Forest, but the trees aren't that thick and sunlight still able to reach the ground." Commented Blue.

"So this Makna Forest, are they full of monsters as well ?" Asked Green.

"Yes, they're dangerous and huge, if you don't know how to fight you could be their next meal." Answered Shulk.

"Although it seems it's Bionis monsters that become Pokemons meal when we got there." Remarked Ness.

"Victreebels sweet nectar smell can be very enticing, glad you're able to resist it." Stated Blue.

"The monsters of Makna Forest never have to deal with something like that, I guess it caught them off guard." Continued Shulk.

"Kinda sad though you have to fight the creatures you encounter rather than catching and befriending them like we do." Said Green.

"Different world, different way of doing things, I don't think our monsters can be tamed the way you do." Replied Shulk again.

As the four of them kept on walking soon Ness and Shulk's golden plate start vibrating.

Ness and Shulk pull out their golden plates. "It's vibrating, I think we're getting closer."

The Parasect then stopped walking as seeing this Ness and Shulk use their golden plate to reveal the portal and marked it on the golden plate map.

"This is it, this got to be the portal that leads to Makna Forest." Stated Shulk.

"Okay, we found it, now what ?" Asked Green.

"We need to enter this portal and find the ones that leads to the Victreebels home." Answered Shulk.

"Then we need to split up, Green you go with Shulk, I'm staying here to make sure no one get past this point." Commanded Blue.

"Got it, okay Shulk, guess you and I have date at the forest." Green winked to tease the flustered Homs.

The embarrassed Shulk scratching his cheek. "Please don't put it like that, I already have a girlfriend back in my world."

"Aww you're taken already, okay I'll be sure not to cause any misunderstandings." Green replied with a teasing smile.

"Feel free to whack her if she cause you any trouble." Snarked Blue.

"So what about me ?" Asked Ness.

"I'm gonna have to ask you to stay with me Ness, in Berry Forest there's a Pokemon that likes to prey on children, I know you're revived in your 13 year old body, but I'm not taking that risk." Answered Blue.

"You don't have to worry about me, I have PSI powers, I'm not a defenseless kid." Protested Ness.

"That Pokemon is a psychic type as well, you may have fought Mewtwo, but it's power is restrained from the tournament rules like you said right ? But now we're not in Smash Tournament right now, not to mention you don't know what a Hypno looks like, Psychic type Pokemons are known to use psychological warfare to capture their prey. At the very least a Hypno won't make a move on late teens like Green and Shulk." Explained Blue which make Ness relent.

"We'll try not to be gone for too long." Said Green as she entered the portal.

"We'll give you a call when we're done." Shulk then entered the portal.

"Alright Ness, it's just you and me here, could you use your PSI powers to detect if there's anyone nearby ?" Asked Blue.

"I sure can, leave it to me." Ness begin to activate his Telepathy, first he ended up accidentally reading Blue's mind.

("Red's gets chosen to compete in otherworldly tournament huh ? Congrats for him I guess...?")

Ness shut down his Telepathy and decided to ask Blue. "Uuhh..Blue, sorry but I ended up reading your mind, does it bother you that Red gets summoned to the World of Trophy ?"

"Oh you know what's inside then ? Honestly seeing him summoned to an otherworldly tournament and fight off threats beyond our world, some part of me wanted to congratulate him, and the other is well...a bit jealous." Explained Blue. "But then again he'll be using Pokemons to attack people directly."

"I've heard that's against the law right ?" Asked Ness.

"Yeah, Pokemons possess dangerous powers after all, ordering them to attack other people have a good chance of killing them." Answered Blue. "I'm guessing you don't have such a law ? Or did you even have monsters in your world ?"

"Monsters huh ? Well we do have them, ranging from animals to inanimate objects, but most of them are born from Giygas influence, so I don't think we can have the same relation as humans and Pokemons are." Answered Ness.

Blue continued. "I see, I'm sorry to hear that, honestly when the ship got attacked earlier, Green and I hesitating a lot, I know we're not in our world back then, but having our Pokemons attacking people directly...and yet Red can do such a thing without hesitation, granted they are our enemy and practically undead, but still."

"It's not easy for Red either when he was summoned in the third tournament, after all he have to command his Pokemons to attack people too, it's only after a few convincing he's able to fight without worry." Continued Ness.

"Yeah, now that I see it, he really endure quite a burden, as his best friend and rival, I can't let myself be restrained either, there are people out there wanted to put the universe in danger, I have to willing to get my hands dirty to save it." Blue looked at his hands. "It seems Red has walked even further than I imagined, I won't let him leave me behind, someone got to stay by his side, of course that won't mean I'm gonna start directly attacking people with Pokemons, that would still be wrong."

As Blue and Ness continued their chat, Ness once again activate his Telepathy, and he picked up another thought from unfamiliar figure.

Bell Tower

After releasing the Stantler and marked the portal on his golden plate Red flew with Charizard straight to the top of Bell Tower.

However as Red fly closer to the top of the tower he saw there's another person standing there. Red managed to land and return Charizard to the pokeball.

"Aren't you Team Galactic admin Jupiter ?" Asked Red. "Why are you wearing Team Rocket's uniform ?"

"Well if it isn't the legend himself, I've been waiting for you." Said Jupiter.

"What do you mean by that ? You talk as if you're expecting me ?" Red noticed something from Jupiter's words.

"Yeah well to be honest it doesn't matter who gets here, I'm just here because of my mission after all." Jupiter then start kicking the 'dusts' off the tower.

"Hey stop that ! I need those !" Red yelled at Jupiter.

"Oops my bad, Golbat !" Jupiter sent out Golbat from her pokeball. "Flap your wings, blow those dusts away !"

Golbat obeyed as it's flapped it's wings to scatter the dusts away.

"No good, if this keeps up there's no more of those ashes left, Pikachu stop that Golbat !" Red commanded Pikachu to fight which the electric mouse obeyed, it jumped off Red Shoulder and attack the Golbat using Thunderbolt, thanks to type advantage Golbat receive more damage from Pikachu's electric attack.

Seeing this Jupiter return Golbat inside her pokeball and sent out both Bronzing and Skuntank, Red replies by sending out Charizard.

Jupiter commanded Skuntank to use Smokescreen and Bronzing to use Rain Dance, the sky turns dark as dark clouds gather above Bell Tower.

"No good, if the rain comes it'll wash away the remaining ashes, Charizard Sunny Day." By Red's command Charizard uses Sunny Day, the dark clouds soon pierced and dissipates from the burning sunlight, Charizard then flapped the Smokescreen with it's wings, while Red is distracted, Skuntank use Night Slash against Pikachu, sending it flying backwards.

"Hate the scorching sun, but it's not all bad, Skuntank ! Flamethrower !" Skuntank fire off Flamethrower from its tail towards Pikachu, which the electric mouse blocked by using Thunderbolt, however thanks to Sunny Day in effect Skuntank fire type attack is empowered by the scorching sun as it's easily overpowered Pikachu's Thunderbolt and burn away the mouse pokemon.

"Pikachu !" Red rushed towards Pikachu and spray Hyper Potion at the electric Pokemon, Jupiter then commanded Skuntank to use Flamethrower again to attack both Red and Pikachu. Charizard who is occupied with Bronzong tried to help, however Bronzong used Block to stop Charizard from moving, forced to watch it's trainer about to be burned.

Bronzong then join in to attack Red by using Flash Cannon, but before both attacks can connect Pikachu used Light Screen to shield Red from the incoming attack, however as Pikachu is just recovering the barrier can't hold on for long also because Skuntank's Flamethrower is still empowered from Sunny Day, Red then picked up his other pokeball and unleash Espeon, and use Light Screen, a much more stronger since Espeon is fully healthy, combining it's power with Pikachu before the barrier breaks.

Bronzong and Skuntank still unleashing Flamethrower and Flash Cannon, seeing the Light Screen can't hold on for long, Red sent out Lapras behind him. He commanded Lapras to use Thunder on Skuntank, a dark cloud formed above Skuntank and struck the skunk pokemon down, ending the Flamethrower stream.

"Now's our chance ! Pikachu ! Lapras use Thunder ! Espeon Shadow Ball on Bronzong !" The pokemons obeyed as Pikachu and Lapras combined their Thunder and blast Skuntank with the double Thunder while Espeon blasted the bronze bell Pokemon with Shadow Ball.

Bronzong about to use Gyro Ball to attack Espeon, however as it gets closer Pikachu jumped in to protect Espeon, Pikachu is sent flying from the impact, however Espeon used it's telekinesis to catch Pikachu from falling, because Bronzong physically touched Pikachu it's Static ability activated and paralyzed Bronzong.

Skuntank who got hit by Thunder multiple time struggled to get up, victory seems to be within Red's grasp. "It's over Jupiter, both Skuntank and Bronzong are not in fighting condition anymore !"

Jupiter however didn't seem to care as her face shows nonchalant attitude. "So they are, but so what, why don't you take a good look of your surrounding."

Red looked around and noticed the ashes on the tower are gone.

"Noticed yet, our battle blow those ashes away, looks like you won't be able to use them to revive your teammate hahaha !" Jupiter laughed as while Red may be victorious Jupiter completed her mission.

"No ! How did this." Red fall on his knees as he fell into Jupiter's trap.

"As much as I like to stay and enjoy your failure, I need a long bath, the scorching sun isn't good for my skin, Bronzong get us out of here." Bronzong struggled to move, but it's still capable of using Teleport to Teleport Jupiter, Skuntank, and itself away from Red.

As Red lament the failure of his mission, something appeared and floated in front of Red.

Makna Forest - Divine Sanctuary

Green and Shulk arrived at a cliff facing the great waterfall of Makna Forest.

Shulk turned around and looked around. "I see that portal leads to the Divine Sanctuary."

"Divine Sanctuary ? Is that what you call this place ? Though I admit the view is breathtaking, I wonder if we have locations like this back in our world." Green enjoyed the majestic view of the waterfall.

"Not sure who come up with the name, but it is one of the forests landmarks, anyway we should get going." Said Shulk as he's about to enter the cave in front of them.

Makna Forest - Cave

"I still remember the ins and outs of this cave, just stick close to me." Shulk is leading the way.

"Alright it's your world." Green followed obediently. "Say Shulk, you said you have a girlfriend, please tell me more."

Hearing this Shulk flustered and feel embarrassed a little. "Ah, well her name is Fiora, and she and I are childhood friends, we live close to each other for starters."

"Ooh, a childhood friends who developing feelings for each other, a little bit cliche, but there's nothing's wrong with that, and...?" Green wished for Shulk to continue.

"Well she had a brother, whom I also know very well..." Green then interjected.

"A brother you say ? They're usually the obstacle preventing the guy from reaching his sister." Interjected Green.

"Is that right ? Well Dunban never had any problems with me, if anything he encourage me to pursue Fiora." Answered Shulk with a bit of blushing on his face.

"Really, aren't you one of the lucky ones, I travelled to various regions in my world and of course I've seen a lot of brothers being overprotective, it's kinda funny when you think about it." Continued Green.

"Yeah, well things arent always that easy, let's just say it took me to nearly lost her to get me to tell her how I feel." Shulk begin telling Green about his adventure.

"Wow, I just...I don't know what to say, you and your companions really been through a lot." Green is at loss for words.

"You know, for someone who's living in a world full of superpowered monsters your world seems to be just fine." Replied Shulk.

"Not always I have you know, my world is often in danger as well, many times the threat just located far away from my home region. The summoning of Dialga and Palkia, the awakening of Groudon and Kyogre, a Pokemon riding a meteor toward our planet, I can list many examples of how many times my world is in danger, lucky for us several legendary pokemons are on our side and numerous talented trainers residing in those regions." Explained Green.

"Gods that on your side huh ? If only the same can be said about Zanza." Murmured Shulk.

"Hmm...? Did you say something ?" Asked Green.

"No, nothing important." Replied Shulk. "Anyway we found these Victreebels beyond Bridge Three, it's kinda far from here though."

"Hmm...far huh ? Maybe this one can help us." Green pull out a pokeball and sent out a Pokemon, it has a pink, fairy like appearance with small wings on its back. "Alright Clefable, were going to a place quite far from here, so please use Gravity."

Clefable nodded and twirl it's fingers, and suddenly Green, Shulk, and Clefable floated off the ground.

"Whoa, whoa ! We're floating !" Shulk panicked at his loss of weight.

"Shulk calm down, this move is called Gravity, it can make Gravity lower or heavier, just let me help." Green grabbed Shulk's arms and get him to adjust.

"Anyway just follow my lead." Green instructs Shulk how to float, and what to do in order to float forward, backward, or even stopping.

Luckily for Green Shulk get the hang of it rather quick. "I think I got the hang of it, did you do this often ?"

"Only in private, there's a rather strict law about using Pokemon powers to take the easy way, after all being creative means you can come up a way to abuse such power." Explained Green.

"Thanks to you I can float well, however what if there's monsters attackimg us ? I don't think I can skip to fighting while floating." Stated Shulk. "Many of the monsters in this place is enormous."

"We don't have to fight if we can help it." Green pull out another pokeball and sent out this time a purplish Pokemon with red eye and perpetually smiling face, it also seemed sinister looking. "Gengar can teleport us away should we encounter any problems, it's a ghost type Pokemon so it can fly naturally."

Shulk and Green 'fly' towards the location where he saw the Victreebels, they encounter many monsters of Makna Forest like Ammos Orluga, a giant bipedal masked monster, Clefable use Sing to make the monster fell asleep, as the heroes covered their ears, Makna Ansel also chased down the heroes, but Clefable used Gravity to make the monster bird fall to the ground by making the gravity heavy.

"We're here." Said Shulk as they arrived at the location, Shulk pull out a pokeball and release one of the Victreebel. "Do you remember how you got here ?"

The Victreebel hopped away and pointed at the giant reptilian monster.

"A Makna Brog ?" Soon after Shulk's golden plate begin to vibrate. "We must be nearby, if I recall there's a cave behind that creature."

"That thing's huge, do we fight it or..?" Asked Green.

"We fight it." Answered Shulk as he grabbed his Monado sword and ready for a fight.

The Makna Brog saw the human and hom and move to attack them, as Shulk ready for a fight Gengar teleported in front of the frog like monster and used Hypnosis, putting the monster to sleep.

"I guess that's one way to put it down, well here goes." Shulk then slashed the monster repeatedly until it dies. "That took care of it."

"I have to say I'm impressed, despite this world full of monsters you're able to survive just fine." Commented Green. "You're not even using any other monster to fight, just good ol fashioned sword."

"In our world we have this thing called Ether, and our weapons are infused with it, that's what makes it possible for us to fight monsters, but still, using monster to fight another monster huh ? I have to admit we never think of doing it that way, we do have some monsters trained, but only as delivery transports." Replied Shulk.

"The same can be said to Pokemons, but you're right they have more powers beyond that, a lot of people with extreme intents have always tried to find a way to fulfill their ambitions by using legendary pokemons which turns out to be beyond their control." Explained Green. "The only reason my world still intact is because there's talented trainers able to defeat those legendary pokemons."

"I see, well I'm glad there are people capable of stopping those crisis, still though when I was first summoned to the World of Trophy to join Smash I was very surprised that they have continents and landmass, I'm not even sure what lies beyond Bionis and Mechonis." Explained Shulk.

"Don't think I'm experiencing what lies beyond pokemon world either, but here we are, so where to next ? You said there's a cave nearby right ?" Asked Green as she put Clefable and Gengar back inside the pokeball.

"Oh right ! The Sap Cave, follow me." Shulk run a bit with Green followed him and they reached a small cave filled with orange sap.

Makna Forest - Sap Cave

Shulk pull out his golden plate and marked the portal on his golden plate. "Alright, I mapped it, now let's entered it." Shulk and Green entered the portal.

Berry Forest

Shulk and Green arrived at Berry Forest which is located on Sevii Islands, specifically on Three Island, this is a place where the soil is so fertile berries grow in abundance and never run out.

Shulk pull out the pokeballs and released all the Victreebels. "Alright we're here, you're all home now." The Victreebels thanked Shulk and Green as they returned to the forest.

"Well that was easy, but now I wonder if we can make sure no more pokemons ended up stumbling this portal." Pondered Green. "The last thing we need for our wildlife to become invasive species...and vice versa."

"Do you have anything that can repel pokemons or something ?" Asked Shulk.

"Oh ! I do, however this is more a temporary solution." Green pull out a Max Repel from her bag, she then sprayed the surrounding area with the Max Repel. "This will keep Pokemons away from this place for the time being, considering the Makna Brog is so large it can't get inside there's no need to use this on your world."

"That's fine, we'll think about a long term solution later, for now let's get back first." Shulk and Green then re-enter the portal to return to Makna Forest.

Makna Forest - Sap Cave

Green and Shulk returned back to Makna Forest after releasing the Victreebels back home.

"Well mission accomplished...somewhat." Commented Green.

"Yeah, but we're not here to sealed off the portal, if we did the enemy will know and they would opened another one elsewhere." Explained Shulk. "We're going to have to start looking again."

"You're right...oh wait I know, maybe this would work." Green opened her bag and pull out what it's like a talisman. "Cleanse Tag, this should repel anything." Green placing the Cleanse Tags on the cavern walls.

"That should do it, this will scare the Pokemons from entering this world, I hope it also works on the monsters here as well." Commented Green as she went inside the portal and return back a few minutes after.

"Let's give it a try then." Said Shulk as Leaf after returning give Shulk one Cleanse Tag. There's a Makna Brog nearby and Shulk showed the creature the Cleanse Tag, the Makna Brog move away for some reason.

"It worked !" Explained Shulk. "It worked on the monsters here too !"

"Great ! We can avoid unnecessary fights if we have to." Green perked up.

"Then mission accomplished for now." Stated Shulk.

"I guess it is, well we should get back to Divine Sanctuary." Green then sent out Gengar. "Gengar take us back to Divine Sanctuary, let's use your shadow portals to get back."

As Gengar about to create a shadow portal, Shulk saw two Nopons walking around, those Nopons are very familiar to him. "Riki ? Oka ?"

Shulk run past Green and approached the two Nopons much to Greens confusion. "Shulk where are you going ?"

"Riki ! Oka !" Shouted Shulk as his voice caught the couple's attention. "What are you two doing here ? Not exactly a safe place for a stroll."

"It's more important than that ! The littlepons from Frontier Village are missing !" Exclaimed Oka which shocks Shulk.

Ilex Forest

"So you're saying there's someone else here in the forest ?" Asked Blue as he and Ness approaching the person Ness sense. "Lots of people use this place to travel after all, are you sure you're not overreacting."

"I'm not, I can't quite confirm it, but I feel uneasy about this person." Replied Ness as they walked to the location where Ness hear the thought. "You sure it's alright to leave that portal with the Parasect ?"

"Yes, I did said to the Parasect if anyone gets near just use Spore and put anyone on close proximity to sleep." Answered Blue.

Meanwhile Ethan and Krys also searching for the suspicious figures Krys saw. "You sure about what you saw Krys ? It could be a Pokemon ?"

"I'm sure, besides the movement of that shadow seems to be too big for a Pokemon." Stated Krys.

"Okay, but it also could be a trainer getting lost, after all this is a huge forest." Replied Ethan.

"Which is why we should approached that person and ask them if they need help." Explained Krys. "Assume ng they're really a lost trainer."

Two figures stand in front of Celebi's shrine. One is an old man, and the other is a middle aged man.

"So, within this shrine lies a creature with power to time travel." Said the old man.

"That's what they say, if it's true imagine what can be done in our hands." Added the middle aged man.

"That aside the monsters that live in this world Pokemons was it what they're called ? They shown so much potential." Said the old man.

"Agreed, they managed to defeat every Demonic Beasts we pit them against, the people of this world had no idea how lucky they have it." Continued the middle aged man.

And at the end of that sentence Krys and Ethan arrived and saw the two men.

"Oh, hello there, I thought I saw something, but could you be visiting Celebi's shrine ?" Asked Krys.

The two men decided to play along to get some info. "Yes, yes we are, we're not from around here you see, but we wished to know about this Celebi, so we came all the way here, it's said to have the power to time travel ?"

"Well it's true, Celebi once take me to three years to the past that one time." Explained Ethan.

"It did ? Fascinating, please explained more." Said the middle aged man as Krys and Ethan tell the two men everything they knew about Celebi.

"I see, that's incredible, thank you for that, so the GS Ball needed to capture Celebi, but the materials are very difficult to find ? I hope such a thing doesn't fall to the wrong hands. It would be terrible for that to happen." Said the old man. "Well, we'll be in our way, thank you for the explanation." The two men then left the forest shrine.

"Well there they go, it's nice for foreigners to take an interest in our history huh ?" Smiled Ethan.

"I'll say, the red robe they're wearing, doesn't seem to be from anywhere near here." Continued Krys.

Not long after, Blue and Ness went out from the bushes and the trainers meet each other.

"Blue !" Shouted Ethan.

"Ethan, Krys ! Aw man it's great to see you guys again !" Ethan and Blue high five each other. "What are you doing here ? Is Krys doing research again ?"

"Yes, there's still a lot to do here, so Blue what brings you here ? I thought you were supposed to be at Alola with Red ?" Asked Krys.

"Yeah, well we're already done with the Battle Tree grand opening, and now we're continuing our travels." Answered Blue.

"Oh I see, that makes sense then." Ethan than notice Ness next to Blue. "Oh so who's the kid ?" Asked Ethan.

"Right let me introduce you, this is Ness, Ness this is Ethan and Krys." Blue introduce Ness to Ethan and Krys.

"Nice to meet you." Said Ness as he shook hands with Ethan and Krys.

"So I hear other people voice earlier, were you two talking to someone ?" Asked Blue.

"Yes, there was this two foreigners curious about Celebi, so we explain things to them, the way they dress really tells they're not from here." Commented Krys.

"Hmm...I see, what do they look like ?" Asked Blue.

"And old man and a middle aged man, they seem pretty curious about Celebi." Answered Ethan.

"So Ness, did you get lost here ?" Asked Krys.

"Huh ? No, I mean..." Ness is struggling to find an excuse.

"Ness is the son of Daisy's friend who live in Johto, I was asked to teach him to be a trainer since I'm in the vicinity." Explained Blue.

"The son of your sister's friend ? Well Ness raising Pokemon can be difficult, but it's a lot of fun too, maybe I can help !" Ethan showed his enthusiasm in helping Ness.

"Sorry, but now's not a good time, besides we're waiting for Green here." Answered Blue.

"Green's here too ? Where is she ?" Asked Krys.

"It's...complicated." Blue can only scratches his head as he struggles to answer.

Makna Forest

"What do you mean the children are missing ? When did it happen !?" Shulk is worried for the missing children.

"Littlepons missing since yesterday, we thought they were just playing so much they forgot the time, and when we woke up this morning they're still not home, all villagers are worried." Explained Oka.

"Shulk we were about to leave, why did you run off ?" Green catch up to Shulk, she then looked at the two Nopons underneath her. "Oh my gosh they're adorable ! What are they ?"

Seeing Shulk with another girl Riki begin jumping to conclusions. "Shulk with another girl, is Shulk cheating on Fiora ? Wait till Riki tell Fiora about this."

Hearing this Shulk furiously denying Riki's accusation. "What ! This is not what it looks like ! I'm not cheating on Fiora !"

Green can only chuckled at the flustered Shulk, she then speak up to clear the misunderstanding. "Hi there my name's Green, and there's nothing going on between me and Shulk, I'm not familiar with the area and he offered to help that's all, besides I have two strapping young men waiting for me back home."

"So Shulk not two timing Fiora ?" Asked Riki.

"No ! Anyway let me introduce you first, Green this is Riki and his wife Oka, they're species are called Nopons, Riki, Oka, this is Green, and she's not from around here, she came from another world, anyway, the missing children, is Kino and Nene included ?" Asked Shulk.

"Yes, all Riki's littlepons are all missing." Answered Riki.

"This forest is huge, it could take forever looking for them, Green is there any Pokemons specialized in searching for missing people ?" Asked Shulk.

Green then pondered a bit. "I don't know if it's specialised, but maybe this one can help, come on out Ninetales." Green toss another pokeball and this time a fox like monster with golden fur with nine tails come out from it.

"Do you have anything belong to your children ?" Asked Green.

Both Riki and Oka is shocked by what they see, seeing a monster come out from a ball like device.

"Umm...please don't be afraid, it's not gonna eat anyone." Green assured the two Nopons.

Riki and Oka regained their composure after that.

"Ahem, sorry about that, yes we do have something." Oka then showed Shulk and Green a gun like object. "This belongs to Kino, since we thought he didn't leave too far he didn't bring his weapon, we bring it with us in case we need it to fight monsters." Explained Oka.

"Okay Ninetales, track it's scent." By Green's command Ninetales begin sniffing out the weapon, Ninetales then caught Kino's scent as the Pokemon begin to move. "I think Ninetales found your kid scent, let's follow it !" Green, Shulk, Riki, and Oka followed Ninetales.

"Shulk are you sure we need to bring then with us ? They look so adorable and harmless." Green looked at the Nopons couple while running.

"It's fine Riki is one of my allies during our adventure, Ms. Oka on the other hand.."

"Leave wifeypon to Riki, Riki will protect Oka, Riki will make sure no harm come to wifeypon." Riki declared his dedication to protect his wife which made Oka blush.

"Aww..how romantic, I wish Red or Blue would act more like that to me." Said Green stroking her cheeks.

Makna Forest - Contaminated Area

The heroes followed Green's Ninetales into here, where Shulk meets Melia for the first time, Ninetales stopped so the others can keep up and they take a break.

"This is.. where we first met Melia." Stated Shulk.

"Hmm...? Melia ? Another one of your teammates ?" Asked Green.

"Yeah, she's an important friend of mine, after our adventure is over we went to reclaim her home, Melia is a princess of the High Entia race." Explained Shulk.

"Whoa ! A princess ! An actual royalty !?...oh wait what am I surprised about ? I meet Lear before." Green showed her surprise, before calming herself down. "Anyway this place seems...different from the others."

"That's because the Telethia here drain the ether surroundi g this area, that's why the plants seemed dying here." Explained Shulk.

"And well after our adventure I helped Melia to reclaim her home of Alacamoth, and uuh because I went there with just her Fiora is mad at me." Shulk lowering his voice.

"No wonder she's mad, you have a girlfriend and yet you wander off to a faraway place with another girl, that would upset anyone." Replied Green.

"I know, that was my mistake, I'll try not to do that again."

After resting a few more minutes they're ready to go again, Ninetales begin moving again which the heroes followed.

Makna Forest - Bridge Four

Ninetales stopped at the front of suspension bridge in front of the heroes.

"What ! Are you sure it's here ! They're not...!" Oka begin to fear the worst as Ninetales leads them to a cliff connected by a rope bridge. "What are they doing going all this way !?"

"Ms. Oka please calm down, I doubt the kids able to make it here on their own, Green earlier Blue said he refused to let Ness come with us because there's a Pokemon called Hypno ?"

"Yes, well Drowzee and Hypno, it's said they like to feast on dreams, and their favorite target is children, however they only prey on humans in desperation, but Pokemons are individual, some individual did act like a rotten apple which tarnish the entire species." Explained Green. "If a Hypno or Drowzee is responsible for this they probably took the kids into an isolated location."

"But how did it gets past all this monsters ? I doubt the monsters would let it pass by like that, not to mention with children in tow ?" Asked Shulk.

"Hypno is a psychic type pokemon, it probably use mind control or illusions to avoid unnecessary fights." Explained Green. "Anyway first things first, Gengar come out."

Green sent out Gengar again. "Gengar I need you to teleport all of us to the end of this bridge." Green pointed at the end of bridge four.

Gengar complied as it create a black portal for the heroes to pass through, the heroes and Ninetales entered the portal and reached the other side of the bridge.

After arriving Ninetales begin moving again, proving the kids didn't fell from the bridge much to Oka's relief.

"This is taking to long, Clefable." Green sent out Clefable again. "Use Gravity." Clefable made the gravity light at the heroes, allowing them to float, Riki and Oka panicked as they float, Green and Shulk calm them down and grabbed Oka and Riki respectively.

"Sorry, but we don't have time to teach you, so hold on to us okay Riki ?" Asked Shulk as he and Green floated to Ninetales direction.

"Shulk what lies on this location ?" Asked Green.

"This way leads to Valak Mountain, but I doubt the pokemon would go over there, there's also a tomb of ancient king in the southern part of this land." Answered Shulk.

As Ninetales about to reach the road to Valak Mountain, it turn left and headed south.

"Ninetales just turn left ! The children must be at King Agni's Tomb !" Exclaimed Shulk.

"Then that's where we find Hypno assuming it's the one responsible." Said Green.

Soon after the heroes arrived at King Agni's Tomb.

Makna Forest - King Agni's Tomb

"This is it, tomb of King Agni, let's go inside." Shulk press on as the door opened automatically, and everyone went inside.

"Thanks for the gravity Green, there aren't any stairs, so we have to jump from a ledge to get here." Shulk thanked Green. "And thank you Ninetales for getting us here."

"It's Clefable you have to thanked for the light gravity, anyway gravity returned to normal for us now." Green put Oka down as she realize she doesn't float anymore, likewise Shulk put Riki down as well.

The heroes walked inside, but then they encounter a yellow bipedal tapir like creature carrying a pendulum.

"So it's true, a Hypno did make it here !" Exclaimed Green, the Hypno noticed the heroes and begin to run.

"After it !" Shouted Shulk as the heroes chased the psychic pokemon.

Hypno mind controlled the monsters at the tomb to be it's protector as it run again. The heroes is faced by a bird and insect like monsters.

"Buio Vangs and Makna Antols, Riki and I can make a short work of this." Shulk begin to draw his sword.

"Monsters no match for Shulk and Riki." Riki also draw his weapon.

Shulk and Riki worked together to exterminate the monsters, thanks to the experience from their adventures, they're able to worked in sync and defeated all the monsters.

"Was Riki always this amazing ?" Murmured Oka as she is impressed by her husband combat prowess.

"Wow, impressive, my Pokemons don't even have to do anything." Commented Green.

"If it's combat, Riki and I have plenty of experience, now there's a coffin ahead that leads to a secret passage, I bet that's where we will find the kids." Said Shulk. "But that coffin is guarded by a Brutal Gravar.

The heroes went further in to see the tomb is guarded by a tall, bipedal monster with a reptilian like appearance.

"Hmm...? Gengar would you like to play ?" Green seemed like to be giving a signal to Gengar.

Gengar complied as it vanished and reappeared in front of Brutal Gravar, the monster tried to attack, however because it's just a normal physical attack, every swing of it's blade only pass through Gengar. The Brutal Gravar soon gets tired, with Gengar used Shadow Ball to attack the creature, defeating it instantly thanks to being tired.

"Well done Gengar." Green praised her Pokemon as she turned her attention to Shulk. "Are there any more obstacles ?"

"No, this is the last one, now we just have to opened the coffin." Shulk move the coffin which leads to a passage below, as the heroes walked down, Shulk is surprised to see there's a huge maze underneath. "What the ! There aren't any maze when we were down here !? What's going on !?"

"We have to go back !" Green lead everyone to be back at the surface, she then closed the coffin again.

"There shouldn't be any maze down there." Stated Shulk.

"Yes, Shulk speaks the truth, Riki went in there with him." Vouched Riki.

"It's got to be Hypno's illusion, it's meant to confuse us and lead us astray." Explained Green.

"It's cornered right ? What else that thing want by creating those illusions ?" Asked Oka.

"Probably to escape, the Hypno knows now that we're here it can't keep the children much longer, the only thing it can do is to escape and continue elsewhere." Answered Green.

"But how do we stop it ? While we're distracted by the illusion the Hypno could buy time to escape." Asked Shulk.

"There's only one thing to do, if we ruined it's concentration, it would panic and we can lured it out, and then we beat it while we caught it off guard." Answered Green. "As for how...Gengar, haunt this tomb."

Once again Gengar complied as it merged with the shadows.

"Alright everyone take your position." And with Green's command the heroes take their position to ambush Hypno.

Inside the secret passage with Hypno sensing the heroes not chasing after it anymore turn around at the sleeping Nopon children it abducted, Hypno is now ready to devour their dreams again, but before it could do anything, ghostly chills is felt by the Hypno, stopping the pokemon in it's tracks as it looked around in panic.

And soon human like faces formed on the walls of the secret room, letting out sinister laugh, as this scares the Hypno. Next debris begin to float and hurled towards the Hypno, injuring it.

Soon everything turns pitch black, no sound, no smell, everything is completely devoid of anything, and then a Gengar like face appeared behind Hypno, it let out it's tongue and licked the Hypno, making it cringe and terrified.

Hypno turned around to see there's nothing behind it, the pokemon is now swallowed in fear as it running away in panic, hoping to find a way out from the black void. But no matter where it run nowhere seems to be any different.

Hypno fearing for it's life, refuse to surrender, but soon hope seems to come as it saw a light in the black void. The Hypno make a run for it to reach the light, and when it does it ended up coming out from the secret passage under the coffin.

Shulk and Riki beat up the pokemon, Gengar returned and fire a Shadow Ball at the pokemon, sending crashing at the coffin.

"Riki ! Oka ! Head down now ! See if the kids are there !" Exclaimed Shulk as Riki and Oka went to the secret passage to check on the kids, and of course with Hypno defeated the illusion are gone and they found the missing Nopon children.

"Littlepons ! Wake up !" Riki and Oka shook the children to wake them up.

"Wait ! Let's see who's here, our Littlepons are here, Kino and Nene are here as well, Kilaki, Kokora, Kuriku, Pachipa, Pipiki, they're all here !" Confirmed Oka.

One of the Nopon kids woke up from sleep, it's a small green Nopon, wiping out his eyes. "Hmm...? Dadapon ? Mamapon ?" The Nopon then looked around. "How did Kino get here ?"

The other Nopon children also waking up from their sleep.

"Where is this ? How did we get here ?" Asked Kokora.

"Did we sleepwalk all the way here ?" Questioned Kilaki.

"They don't seem to know anything ?" Oka whispered to Riki.

"Let's ask Green Green later." Riki whispered back, before turning his attention to the Nopon kids. "Alright Littlepons, were going to go back to the village, make sure you follow us all the way okay." And with that the Nopons leave the tomb secret room.

Meanwhile up above..

"So what do we do with it ?" Asked Shulk as Hypno is tied by Green's Victreebel Vine Whip, and have Gengar and Ninetales ready to attack in case the Hypno tried anything.

"First things first, are you the only Pokemon arrived in this world ? Answer truthfully or I will have Ninetales curse you." Green threatened the Hypno.

The Hypno nodded furiously as if to confirm its the only Pokemon arrived in Bionis.

"Alright then, although you still needs to be punished for luring those kids away, Gengar Hypnosis and then use Nightmare on this Hypno." Gengar obeyed as Gengar hypnotized the Hypno and inflict Nightmare on the pokemon, the Hypno is writhing in pain as it forced to deal with nightmares.

Riki and Oka then from the secret room along with the Nopon children behind them.

"Littlepons safe, we go back to village now." Stated Oka.

"All of you are safe then, that's a relief." Shulk sighed a breath of relief.

"Shulk ! It's nice to see you again !" A pink Nopon greeted him.

"It's nice to see you too Nene, and Kino too." Shulk greeted the Nopon kids back.

"Kino had no idea how Kino get here, none of us do." Said Kino.

"Well you're safe at least, let's all get back to the village, since there's nothing else then." Shulk pull out his golden plate and teleported everyone back to Frontier Village.

Makna Forest - Frontier Village Entrance

"We're here." Said Shulk as they all arrived at the village entrance.

The Nopons are awed to see that they're able to get back in a flash. "Shulk how did you do it !?" Asked a curious Kino.

"He'll tell you later, alright everyone get in." Oka took the Littlepons back inside the village.

Riki who is still staying behind wanting to ask questions. "Littlepons alright ? Yellow monsters not doing any harm ?"

"Don't worry, about it, apart from kidnapping dream feasting is harmless, hopefully this event doesn't treat the entire Hypno species as kidnappers, many of them work with doctors to cure insomnia." Explain Green. "Anyway I sent Gengar to Sap Cave to bring the Hypno back to Berry Forest, with the Cleanse Tag I put all over that area it would think twice before entering that portal again."

Not long after Chief Dunga appeared from the entrance and greeted Shulk. "Oh Shulk, you're here, I was about to call you, but I see that wasn't necessary."

"Chief Dunga. Green this is Dunga, the chief of Frontier Village." Shulk introduced Green to the chief.

"Pleased to meet you, I have to say a giant tree housed so many people like this, I could never believe it with my eyes." Said Green. "Not even For tree City have anything like this."

"It's nice to meet you too, so I take it she's from another world as well ?" Asked Chief Dunga.

"Yes, it's mostly thanks to her were able to soove the missing children case." Explained Shulk.

"I'm sorry a monster from my world responsible for this problem." Green bowed her head.

"No need to apologize child, this isn't your fault, it's the fault of those causing this in the first place."

"Anyway Chief, there's a portal in Divine Sanctuary and Sap Cave, but we make sure nothing can enter that portal for a while." Explained Shulk.

And then Gengar returned to the heroes side through a dark portal. Chief Dunga is shocked by the ghost pokemon appearance.

"You're done Gengar ? Then let us go back to Ilex Forest..." Before Gengar opened a portal a small creature floated above the heroes.

Bell Tower - Top

Red saw the creature, it's a small creature with pink face and four appendages on its head, it also have red gems on its forehead and two tails.

"Aren't you Mesprit ?" Asked Red.

Mesprit spoke to Red telepathically. ("Yes, I was sent by Lord Arceus to help you on your quest, the lake guardian's will offer our aid to you.") Mesprit carry a psychic sphere full of dust, apparently it gathered the Sacred Ashes scattered from Red's battle with Jupiter.

"Thats !" Red quickly opened his bag and pull out an empty pouch. "Put it here ! I used to have stardusts here, but I sold it already." Mesprit move the sphere to Red's pouch and create a small hole which allows the dusts to enter Red's pouch.

("You will need it to being back your fallen comrades, for now let us return to your companions.") Mesprit teleported itself, Red, and his Pokemons back to Ilex Forest.

Frontier Village - Entrance

"Is that another pokemon ?" Asked Shulk.

The creature is similar to Mesprit, bit this one is yellow with it's eyes closed.

"Yes, this is Uxie, a legendary Pokemon." Answered Green.

("I am Uxie, we the lake guardians sent by Lord Arceus to aid you on your quest.") Uxie spoke using Telepathy to the heroes. ("I will make sure no harm come to this village.")

"Thank you Uxie, I'm glad Arceus being more active in this." Stated Green.

"I always thought humans don't need gods, but now that I think about it it's sounds more like arrogance then independence." Commented Shulk.

"I'm sorry your god Zanza is evil, but I'm sure Arceus is nothing like him, we can trust Uxie to protect this village." Stated Green.

("Mesprit and Azelf also tasked by Arceus to aid you all, the three of us can share knowledge using our powers no matter where we are.")

"Don't worry Riki, and Chief, with Uxie here your protection is guarantee." Vouched Green.

"An otherworlder who's going to protect us huh ? Okay I'll take your word for it." Stated Chief Dunga.

("You are the hero of this village correct ? I will look forward to see you in action.") Uxie complimented Riki.

"Yes, Riki will show fairy what Riki can do !"

With the security of the village is secured under the aid of legendary pokemon Green and Shulk then return to Divine Sanctuary to rendezvous with the others.

Ilex Forest

Blue is still with Ethan and Krys.

"You know you shouldn't give that much info, there always bad people out there wanting Celebi's power for themselves." Said Blue.

"I guess, but to make GS Ball you need Silver and Rainbow Wing in the first place, and they're very hard to find for obvious reason." Said Ethan.

And then Red returned to Ilex Forest teleported between Blue and Ethan.

"Whoa ! Red ! Are you abusing Teleport move ? There's a reason why the use of Teleport is restricted." Said Ethan.

"Huh ? Ethan ? Krys ? What are you doing here ?" Asked Red.

"We should be the ones asking..." Krys and Ethan then noticed Mesprit hovering above them. "No way is that Mesprit !?"

"Yes well..."

Now Green and Shulk showed up at Ilex Forest. "Sorry everyone I'm late, you won't believe what just happened, a Hypno made it's way to Bionis and abducting the children there."

"Uuuhhhh...what's going on exactly ?" Krys and Ethan gets confused by what just happened before turning their attention to Shulk. "And is that guy carrying a sword ?"

"Ahem hold that thought." Red then huddled up Blue, Green, Shulk, and Ness. "What do you think ? Should we let them in our adventure ?"

"Ethan and Krys are powerful trainers themselves, so why not ?" Questioned Green.

"Also before that, they're telling us that there are two men asking about Celebi, even going so far asking about GS Ball, honestly I'm very suspicious about them." Said Blue.

"Hmm...the more help we have the better, at the very least we need allies in our own world so they can inform us of anything that's going on." Shulk seems to agree on letting Ethan and Krys in on their adventure.

"Got it, we tell them then." Red break off from the huddle and spoke to the Johto trainers. "Krys, Ethan, there's something we need to tell you." Red begin to explain about what they've been doing."

Ethan and Krys left their mouth agape hearing Red's explanation. "This isn't some kind of joke right ?"

"Nope, what Red's said is the truth, honestly if we didn't get involved we wouldn't have believe him too, Green and I got attack by a gold slime like monster in a different planet." Added Blue. "And I lied about Ness, he's not the son of Daisy's friend, he came from another world, where Pokemon doesn't exist."

"And Shulk came from a world called Bionis, also a world where Pokemon doesn't exist either." Added Green. "When a Hypno abducted those children, none of the natives know what to do because they don't have monsters with psychic powers."

"If it's alright with you two, we'd like for you to help us, we can't always be here all the time, so we need someone from here to keep us updated." Stated Red.

"I understand, if there's an evil being threatened our world, then we need to stand against them, I'm in !" Ethan gave his answer.

"Count me in too, a Pokemon stranded in other worlds will be a danger to the pokemon itself and the natives who had no idea about pokemons." Krys also agreed to join as well.

"I may be being paranoid, but I think those men you encountered earlier may wished to use Celebi's power." Commented Blue.

"I don't know about Silver Wing, but when Silver and Ho-oh Team up when we're at Pasio, Ho-oh gifted Silver with Rainbow Wing, I don't know if he may still have it, but I think I'm going to see him." Said Ethan.

"I need to get back to New Bark Town first, I'm going to need to find out something about those men." Added Krys.

"Careful okay, we don't know who they are, don't put yourself as a target." Said Red.

"Don't worry I won't do anything that draws attention." Assured Krys.

"Then take this with you." Red give Ethan his golden plate. "Use that if you want to communicate with us, I can get more back at HQ."

"Wow an HQ !? That's awesome !" Exclaimed Ethan.

"We'll take you there one day, for now we need you here." Said Red.

"So Red did you got enough Sacred Ash ?" Asked Blue.

Red pull out a pouch full of Sacred Ash, "Yep and it's all thanks to Mesprit."

"Welcome aboard Mesprit, having another legendary pokemon is more than reassuring." Blue is glad to have Mesprit aboard.

"Uxie also showed up in Bionis, offered to protect Frontier Village." Added Green.

"I see, the Nopon kids were abducted by Hypno then, considering it's just attacked by a crow demon, frankenstein monster, and it's hunchback creator, that place really needs protection." Stated Red.

"Well we'll be on our way now, stay safe okay." Shulk used his golden plate to teleport the heroes back to the mansion.

"Ethan, were involved in something big again aren't we ?" Asked Krys.

"Well someone have to, guess I'll be seeing Silver then, take care okay Krys." Ethan return to the camping site.

"Yeah, you too." Krys then leave Ilex Forest.

Frontier Village

("So Mesprit successfully meet with them, how are things on your end Azelf ?") Asked Uxie.

("Just fine, I'm sealing the portals, so that non sentient beings can entered it, if the enemy is using it, we're also going to make use of it ourselves.") Azelf is currently dealing with the portals.

("That's good, we also need to find a way to save Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina.") Continued Uxie.

("All in due time, considering their importance to the enemy plan they're going to make sure our allies can't get to them easily.") Replied Azelf.

Underworld Palace

The two men that Ethan and Krys met from earlier reside in their room, it's a spacious room with yellowish black wall, but fancy and luxurious at the same time.

The men then transformed revealing themselves to be a pale skin men with purplish hair, their true form looking more inhuman.

"So then Thales, we're still pursuing this Celebi ?" Asked Solon.

"Yes, the power to travel through time, we can undo our defeat and better prepare ourselves." Answered Thales.

"If Fodlan thinks we're ancient history then they better think again, we will have our revenge." It seems Those who Slither in the Dark will return with a vengeance.


Finally, another long chapter done.
