(October 21st 2017, later that day)
After running an errand in Lumiose city, Jarod, yveltal and gallade are seen cruising through the sky heading back to the trainer's home, however all is not as it seems as Jarod can be seen twitching nervously while deep in thought.
"Jarod… you seem to be on edge about some unknown circumstance, its not like you." Oblivion grumbles.
"Its…its nothing yveltal, I'm fine as can be." Jarod retorts, putting on a fake smile to hide his anxiety. "Uh in any case we are arriving home."
Meanwhile, inside the home, Diantha is busy tending to her pokemon. Her Gardevoir had finally regained consciousness after being half frozen in the blizzard.
"And that should do it." Diantha murmurs to herself after feeding her last team member when Ryu the greninja alerts her that Jarod has returned.
"Diantha, it appears that Jarod has returned from his flight to the city." Ryu announces
"He has? Alright that took a bit longer than I expected." Diantha replies.
"Alright, thank you as always yveltal, follow me Lawrence we ve got some chopping to do." Jarod says while moving rather hastily.
Let us get to work master, Psycho cut!" Lawrence replies as his blades extend and glow with purple energy before unleashing a series of slashes that chop through the fallen pine with ease, leaving a pile of chopped firewood in its place.
"Nice one Lawrence, just as sharp as I remember." Jarod states in praise.
"Ah so that's Lawrence, I've never seen a gallade like that before." Diantha says while walking towards them, her eyes drawn to the blue gallade.
"Hey Diantha, didn't see ya there. This here is my shining gallade, Lawrence. He is the mate of my shining gardevoir, Annabelle." Replies jarod
"You must be Diantha. It is an honor to meet you in person, Master has told me about the recent events." Lawrence says while bowing slightly.
"Anyways, Gallade could you help Diantha haul the wood into the downstairs storage, I have to discuss something with my team."
"Consider it done, master." Lawrence nods in reply.
"Sure thing Jarod, by the way I meant to tell you that gardevoir is back on her feet, she woke up just after you left." Diantha states cheerfully.
"Really now, that's a bit of good news". Jarod replies
"However, it happened when your Lucario was checking on her, he seems very concerned. Its almost as if she could sense him and was able to wake up, like they have some sort of connection." Diantha says in addition.
"Wow, that seems rather interesting. Good to know she has recovered, Anyway I need to get down to business." Jarod says slightly nervous. Team! Gather around me, he shouts and his six pokemon are soon gathered around him.
"Alright then, don't work yourself too much", Diantha chuckles at him.
"I won't, don't worry." Jarod replies back.
Diantha and gallade walk back to the house. once they're out of sight, Jarod begins to speak to his six loyal warriors.
"Everyone…. I have something important to discuss with you all. Today during my trip to Lumiose, I encountered a group of suspicious individuals who appear to be a part of a group calling themselves team infinity. Now I'm not saying this is certain, but from what I heard, it sounds like they are planning some sort of attack on an upcoming festival that honors the legendary creation trio."
"So that's what's been bothering you." Oblivion states
"Oh Dear." Venus gasps
"That sounds ominous." Ryu and Anubis both respond.
"Hmm that seems rather preposterous." Spectra growls.
"There's more to it, apparently, they might be looking for the lustrous orb. It worries me to a great extent what they could be planning. I didn't want to tell you guys while Diantha was nearby. I'm trying not to instill a panic." Jarod says ashamedly. "I apologize for keeping a secret."
"I speak for all of us when I say that we don't blame you for trying to keep things under control. But we are a team and no matter what comes our way we well get through it. Master you have been through thick and thin to help us so let us help you." Anubis states proudly
The rest of the team nod in agreement. "You guys are right, why don't we get down to training just like we always do, just in case things get heavy. Spectra and oblivion, id imagine you guys can control yourselves and work on your moves together."
"Indeed, we can." The two legends state and ascend to the skies to spar and train their powers
Ryu, Anubis. Let me get my combat suit on and we can work on our CQC skills and moves. Jarod states firmly. A few minutes Later Jarod returns in a Black combat vest and pants. On his arms are a set of gauntlets with silver armored plating similar to a shining giratina's scales and steel studs on the knuckles. On his head sits a helmet in the shape of an origin form giratina's head. Lastly his feet are adorned by a set of armored boots that resemble the feet of altered form giratina.
"Well then." Shall we begin. Jarod asks
"Indeed we shall." Ryu replies taking a battle stance
"Coming at you master." Anubis replies charging forward
Feel Invincible by Skillet starts to play
"En Garde!" Jarod cries out and leaps forward and the three begin to spar.
Anubis creates a staff made of solid aura and takes a swing at Jarod which he blocks with his gauntlets before retaliating with a series of 5 rapid jabs to push the Lucario back, before quickly jumping to the side to dodge a water shuriken barrage from Ryu
"Blast, I missed." Ryu groans
"Ryu, you ve gotta work on your speed or your ranged attacks like that won't be able to hit targets moving at high speed. Anubis, you need to be more unpredictable in your attack patterns, I knew what you were trying to do when you first charged at me." Jarod calls out as he delivers a swift right-hand jab to greninja sending the frog ninja back a few feet.
"Damn master, you really hit like a truck sometimes." Anubis states before getting in close using extreme speed to engage his trainer in a CQC session. The two of the exchange a rapid series of punches and kicks, both matching each other in speed before Anubis manages to catch Jarod with a low sweep to his ankle, staggering the trainer before pushing him back wit a light but strong aura infused punch to the chest.
"Humph that smarts, not bad Lucario." Jarod states wincing slightly before charging forward and striking Anubis with a shoulder ram strike.
"Ooof, now that stings a bit, you really are stronger than you know master." Anubis replies
Ryu appears behind Jarod with shadow sneak and nails him with a water shuriken to the back, staggering him again.
"I have you this time master." Ryu smirks cockily
"Not bad, you used your speed to your advantage and caught me off guard before I could react. That's what you gotta do to succeed against strong and smart foes." Jarod replies before sending Ryu flying with a roundhouse to his midsection
"Have you all had enough yet or shall we continue my loyal fighters?" Jarod asks in concern
"I can go for awhile yet." Anubis states proudly
"Same here." Ryu replies as well
"Alright then!" Jarod shouts proudly and the three begin again, sparring and training until the sun begins to set.
Meanwhile, at high altitude to the west of the Kalos region, a large white ship with purple stripes around the wings and an infinity symbol on its sides can be seen. Two large engines can be seen mounted on the rear of the craft. Along its top lay two rows of 4 missile launch tubes. Onboard the craft a large squad of grunts can be seen sitting in front of a screen receiving a briefing from their commander
"Commander Lucius, according to my calculations we shall arrive in the region in 3 days, which on that day is the festival where the object of your desire shall be out in the open." States a burly and tall male with silver hair, and a sleek white dress coat and pants. On his belt sit 3 strange poke balls that appear to have two small energy cells adorning them
"Excellent work lieutenant Dragomir, Id expect nothing less from you. Its time that the people of kalos see the error of their beliefs and ways of life. With the power of the beast we have under our control, we cannot be stopped." Lucius states firmly with a malicious tone'
Meanwhile in a large chamber in the center of the craft, a large bipedal creature can be seen. Its body primarily white in color with purple stripes adorning its neck. A pink orb rests in each of its two shoulders which lead into a pair of gauntlet like arms. Its thick tail and wings are covered in metal armor that is dark red in color, aswell as its legs. Its eyes glow a ferocious bright red as the beast roars.
"Gagyahgagyah !"
