Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's another chapter of the couple in the Distortion World! Be prepared!

Chapter 5: His Story

Gloomy, that's the best word Myra could describe this place as.

All she saw was disorder and chaos everywhere. Mirrors showed different regions and places she didn't even know. The vast purple sky made her head spin as upside-down pieces of Earth floated everywhere.

Way to go Myra, you've gotten yourself vertigo by just looking at this world.

She hugged Zorua tighter as she walked around. It didn't help that a giant luminous eye was following her every move. The giant body of Giratina followed her everywhere she went, preventing her from finding any means of escape. If he went away for just a moment, she could find her way out of this world and back to her own.

No use of escaping now, I guess I'll have to do my research here. She put Zorua on the ground, a protesting yelp coming from his mouth. Digging in her backpack, she pulled out her laptop and started to type in more of her report on the Distortion World.

The Distortion World is said to be another universe or world parallel to our world. I have found this place to be very strange with a guardian beast constantly trying to break out of his prison. The world is very….strange.

A bright flash indicated that Giratina had turned into his human form. She didn't bother to turn around as he leaned over her. Zorua growled at him, Giratina glaring back at him.

"What are you doing on that strange device?" He asked her in his smooth voice.

"Just typing up my research on this world, which is sort of self-explanatory." Myra commented. "This place is far more interesting than my own."

Giratina nodded, reading over what she'd wrote. "Guardian beast huh?"

Myra felt her cheeks grow hot as he read that. "Why yes, you are the only inhabitant of this world. So you kind of guard this place by yourself."

"Yes…it is my world, but it is also my prison." He said with malice in his words.

Myra shifted uncomfortably. "Why were you imprisoned here in the first place?"

The air grew denser as she said that. Giratina's eyes glowed red for a second, before clenching his fist. Myra felt she had gone into sensitive territory and backed away a bit. Zorua rushed to her side and stood protectively in front of her.

"My banishment…the reason why they call me the Renegade pokémon….it starts back when I was freed from this prison." He growled inhumanly, making Myra shake. "Back when I was one of Arceus' sons. A day I would soon want to forget, for that day I was turned into the likes of you!"

Flashback…

Time was warping and space was rippling, the sky was filled with the auras of two powerful pokémon. In the midst of the two draonoids, another one followed suit, trying to prove his wort. The dragons all clashed with each other, screeching as they did.

These dragons were Diagla, Palkia, and Giratina, the Creation Trio.

As they battled above, the realm of the humans watched in awe. The Sinnoh region back then was full of scientist who predicted such a cataclysmic occurrence in the near future. People screamed as the fighting grew fiercer.

"We could be seeing the end draw nearer, we have to get out of here!" One of the scientists said.

"But how, the Spatial World, the Temporal World, and the Distortion World have collided! We would need someone to put them down or stop their fighting." Another replied.

"No one would be foolhardy! This is it, the end of the world!" Another panicked, running around in circles.

"Have no fear men, I have the solution." A calm voice rung out amidst the chaos, walking towards the dragons. The woman was fairly tall with dark blue hair. She tied her lengthy hair back in a ponytail and had side-swept bangs in front, with two strands of hair draped down the sides of her head. She was dressed in elegant robes with a high-collared cloak. She wore a keyhole blouse and a long dress.

"Madame Minerva, we beseech you not to stop them! Something terrible could happen to you." They all cried out.

Minerva silenced them. "My friends, I have done much to save this region before. But it's time for me to save your lives." She stood under the scene of the fight and brought her hands up. "I call upon the ancient spell that once changed the form of pokémon before! Monstrum hominis, qui vitæ et mortis, fecero in diebus meis!" Her eyes glow white as a multicolored beam shoots out of her hands. The beams hit the trio, making them screech in agony. Their bodies shrunk down until they were the size of humans.

Diagla had white hair with blue streaks, wore a blue overcoat and white pants, his jewels rested on his shoulders, and he had black gloves.

Palkia also had white hair with magenta streaks, wore white robes, and his jewels were on his shoulders.

Giratina was to first to react as he made his way over towards Minerva. He towered over her before giving her a slap to the face, making her crumple to the ground.

"You foolish mortal! Do you know what you've just done?" He snarled angrily at her.

Minerva chuckled as blood trickled from her lips. "What's wrong Giratina; does your new form not suit you well?" She wiped the blood from her mouth. "And you shall remain in that from till death dos you part."

Giratina roared as he grasped her by the hand, seeping his dark energy in her body. She screamed the pain coursing throughout her body. Diagla and Palkia tried to intervene, but Giratina formed a dark energy bubble around them. Ruthlessly, he continued to slowly kill the poor woman. Her face was suddenly drained of color as he growled at her.

"You…won't…get...away…with…this." Minerva breathed out. "My…descendant…will…stop…you."

With that, the woman's last breath was uttered as she fell dead to the floor. Giratina looked at her before casually tossing her body towards his brothers.

"Take her useless body towards those mortals." He raked his hands across his hair. "We need to find a cure for this."

"You brutally killed her and yet you feel no remorse?" Diagla exclaimed angrily.

"I only care about myself; you shouldn't be concerned with me."

"She was a brilliant scientist! And you just killed her…you really are the Renegade Pokemon." Palkia said, heaving her body on his shoulder.

Giratina turned away from his brothers, walking casually amongst the debris of their battle.

Myra was at a loss for words after hearing his tale. Her hands were shaking as he finished and she clutched onto Zorua more tightly. This man…no…this pokémon had brutally murdered this woman for turning him into a human.

"And now, I am banished here for trying to overthrow my father and for murder." Giratina sighed and walked away from her. "You probably think I'm some monster now don't you?"

He felt a hand on his shoulder and turned to see Myra crying on his back. His face turned to one of surprise as she wept on his shoulder blades. He brought her in front of him and wiped away her tears.

"Why are you weeping? Does my story bring you great sorrow?"

"That woman…you killed long ago…was one of my relatives."

And cliffhanger! That's how you do a backstory! Next time we'll see more interaction between the two and the rescue team that will try to save her.
