Oh my Arceus!
Apotheosis: Salutations beings beyond the fourth wall!
Anto: Where the heck am I? Wait-What!? PG-13!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?
I have great news! I've returned to my favorite fic from before! But we're marking the first one as complete and revamping the Ransei Saga! I thought about it and I'm giving the Ransei Saga another go. I felt like I lost stride after a while, but now I want a go at it again after five more years of writing experience!
Apotheosis: We get to come back!?
You bet your tiny selves you will!
Anto: Will I not be tortured and treated like a cosmic joke!?
NO!
Anto: Hey-
Look for it soon! The Rebirth of this story in,
"Bizarre Misadventures: Samurai Idiots!"
Anto: Wait-what did you call us?
Summary: After finishing one region, what does a trainer do? Why the only thing to do is to go into another region to progress one's journey! That is why this trainer gets flung to the far past(?) into the Ransei Region and accidentally ignites a country-wide war to unleash a new god into the world! That's not what they do? Tell that to Anto! (Sequel. The first story recommended.)
God thinks I'm his father.
Let me put that in perspective, I an amnesiac, telepathic, 14-ish teenage boy had been called "Papa" by a baby Arceus!
How did this happen?!
... Oh right. Unova happened.
Now that I think about it. Is Unova still in one piece? I distinctly recall things going very badly before I got here. The severe lack of destruction makes me believe this isn't Unova.
"Papa! Papa!" And here I hoped that the tiny, floating Arceus with a small but divine voice was just a delusion. "Papa Anto!"
I sighed before petting the surprisingly plush Creator Pokemon. "Yes, little one?"
"I want a naaaaammmmmeeeee." I had a bad feeling as the small god turned like a clock hand in the air when he dragged out that word.
"A name?"
"Yeah! It's my birthday and I want one!"At that moment, the small Arceus' eyes glowed. Behind him, a mariachi band appeared that consisted of several Throhs wearing ponchos and sombreros. They started playing festive music that one could hear on a birthday.
It occurred to me at that moment I was dealing with a toddler, a toddler with the power of creation at his fingertips or paws in his case. I probably should react more, but considering what happened in Unova, even something like this feels mundane.
"How about," After a short pause of me once more questioning my life-choices that lead me up to this, I thought about a name for the newborn.
"Apotheosis." I thought it fits well for an Arceus since it means the highest point or something to that degree.
"WhooOOOAaaa." The little one had his eyes flash before the mariachi band vanished in a puff of smoke. I took a mental note to have this kid control his powers, or else I might get poofed out of existence on a whim.
... I can't believe a single year has me thinking stuff like 'being blinked out of existence' as if it's as simple as buying groceries.
"I like that name!"
Well, that was one problem down.
"Apo, come on," I picked a direction and started walking.
"Where are we going, papa?"
That is a good question. The bad thing is that, as a god, he is supposed to have the answers. With that in mind, what the heck have I gotten myself into this time?
I shook my head and focused on what needs to happen first. "We're going to find the others."
...
Why does it feel like something just popped into existence?
Against every fiber of my being, I turned around and I saw Apotheosis with a giant mustache on his face and a very colorful sombrero on his head.
"¡Oye, Papá! ¡Mirada a mi nuevo bigote!"
"Puede usted... ¿¡Oye!? ¿¡Por qué no puede yo entender lo que digo!?"
"¿Qué?"
"¿¡Qué!?"
Tan pronto como entiendo lo que digo otra vez, voy a asegurarme que Apo controla sus poderes.
...Dios, odio mi vida.
PG-13: And now, something I've been dying to try for a long time: theme song. I know sometimes they are kinda cringy with people putting Japanese lyrics and trying to fit something that's obviously a visual medium in fanfiction, but I thought it might be fun to write instead of reading.
Which is why I'm using English songs as my theme songs. So at least you can understand what I'm trying to convey.
And this song fits Bizarre Misadventures to a T! Ladies, Gentlemen, and that Technicolor in between, I give you...!
[American Authors-Born To Run]
(The music starts and a young teen taps the front of his shoe behind him in the same beat as the music)
~I'm born to run down rocky cliffs!~
(He doesn't run—he sprints out with the enthusiasm of an Olympic Runner.)
~Give me grace, bury my sins!~
(Anto runs past the flashes of his past adventure, as he reaches the present, Aptheosis flies up beside him.)
~Shattered glass and black holes!~
~Can't hold me back from where I need to go!~
(An empty grave is seen before a Hoopa flies over with a smirk before flying into one of his portals.)
Oh oh oh!
~Yellow hills and valleys deep!~
~I watch them move under my feet!~
(Anto and Apotheosis are joined by five other figures, running past a brand new land.)
~Stranger things have come and gone!~
~To see the world and take the throne!~
(At the very end of their run lies a black tower that stands beyond the clouds in the sky. Something is there, and Anto and the others race to it no matter how far they are.)
~Don't hold back~
(Anto stops and looks back, seeing his past friends cheering him on. On his other side, his new friends are giving him signs of encouragement.)
~Oh, I won't hold back~
(Suddenly, dark shadows appear and bar Anto and his Pokemon. They are many, looming and fearsome.)
(But Anto smiles and takes a step forward...)
~I'm gonna live my life like I'm gonna die young!~
(And sprints hard once more with past and new friends following after him and his Pokemon.)
~Like it's never enough like I'm born to run!~
( A multitude of attacks and etcetera try to stop the teen. Yet each time they're warded away by his companions and Anto doesn't slow down as the tower is in sight.)
~I'm gonna spend my time like tomorrow won't come!~
~Do whatever I want like I'm born to run!~
(A final figure rises above the shadow, his figure glows and exudes power and destruction.)
~I wanna see Paris, I wanna see Tokyo!~
~I wanna be careless even if I break my bones!~
(Anto is accompanied by three mysterious figures that launch themselves at the big bad and open a path for him and Apotheosis.)
~I'm gonna live my life like I'm gonna die young~
(Anto and Apotheosis run up the tower, faster and faster as shadows stalk behind him and his other Pokemon, trying to stop them.)
Like it's never enough like I'm born to run!
(Anto and the others see the peak of the tower, a blinding light awaits them in the end. The shadows all make one final attack for the boy as Anto reaches for the light...)
And with that, readers. Ends my preview of the upcoming sequel for Bizarre Misadventures.
I'm working on it now and even though my life is busier now, I want this story to come back to life.
Ah, wait. THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR PREVIOUS READERS. If you reviewed the past Chapter 58, Fanfiction won't let you review it again. I deleted the other chapters because now something new will take its place.
With that, Peace out guys! See ya soon!
