A/N Hey everybody. Glad all of you felt like you had to read my first story! Now, I need to cover a couple of things before we start. 1. Please only give constructive criticism. This is my first story, and I really don't want to receive dozens of angry reviews. 2. A couple of ideas in this story come from Mekon's The Black Latios. I have plans to rewrite some of his stuff with my characters added or even tell you guys to read some of his chapters to explain what is going on in the background. I am unfortunately unable to ask permission because he has been inactive for 5 years. I only hope that he will let this story continue if he ever comes back as this is kind of a fanfiction of his fanfiction.

Anyway, on to the story.

Summary

Chapter 1:

He shot through the sky, glancing behind him every couple of seconds. Nothing. He still didn't stop, knowing his pursuers were right behind him. Suddenly, a bright light hit him in the eyes. A voice cried out, "We got you now, you slippery Latios!"

The Latios quickly turned invisible and dove downwards, hoping to throw off Team Rocket. However, he didn't know that they had been tracking him with thermal cameras. The pilot smirked as she launched heat-seeking missiles, missiles that were modified to target one heat signature: a Latios.

The Latios felt the missiles strike him, felt himself start to fall, felt panic wash over him as he shot towards the unforgiving earth. He tried to concentrate, tried to control his fall, but all he managed to do was aim for a small spot of light in the field of darkness below. Half falling, half gliding, he got closer to the lights which revealed itself to be a small town on the coast with a large building on one of the hills. He had targeted the large building which soon became a lab. Not being able to slow down much he crashed through the roof and landing in front of the three humans who stared at the Latios in shock and awe.

10 minutes earlier:

Ash and Luke were as close as brothers. Their birthdays were a day apart, and they had spent a lot of time together. Birthday parties were always a joint operation between their moms as both had been orphaned as babies. When they were 4, they somehow managed to build a treehouse in the woods and they often played there. However, on this particular night, they had been playing with some pokemon at Professor Oak's lab. Ash had left already with his mom, and Luke's mom had just arrived to pick him up.

"Thanks for watching Luke, Professor. We got everything set up." She said as Luke ran past chasing a Pidgey. The mothers had been planning the two boy's birthday party and needed them out of the house.

"No problem, Olivia. Luke was great. He and Ash always seem to figure out what is worrying a pokemon and then calm it down. They actually managed to calm one of my Geodudes down before he destroyed the roof!" Prof. Oak replied.

"That's nice. Luke! Time to go!" Olivia said, turning to her son.

"But Mom!" Luke complained, having caught his query. "I just met him!" he said as he hugged the Pidgey tightly, who squawked and worked his way out of the 5-year-old's death grip. "Ok. Bye!" he called out to the pokemon in the field. A couple of his best friends waved at him, as he walked to the door with his mother.

Suddenly, a loud crashing was heard as a blue and white pokemon crashes through the roof and landed on the floor with a thud. It was covered with burn marks and cuts, and it was breathing heavily. Luke stared at it. His mom stared at it and then ran to get some first aid supplies. Prof. Oak practically fainted when he recognized it from the description his colleague Prof. Elm had given him about a rare pokemon. "I- I- It's a Latios! A l- l- legendary!" he stuttered, shocked that: A. A legendary had just crashed into his laboratory, and B. A legendary could be hurt as badly as this one.

Olivia ran into the room carting a large number of bandages and berries. The sight of her rushing to help the pokemon snapped them out of their stupors. Luke ran to grab some supplies from his mom to help, while the Professor ran to his computer to contact Prof. Elm to get any more info on the legendary Eon that just destroyed his lab.

Latios slowly opened his eyes and looked up into the face of a young boy with brown hair and a concerned face holding a berry to his mouth. Latios recognized the berry and opened his mouth and allowed the boy to feed him the berry. He felt a bit better. He knew he had too many in injuries to last much longer, but this boy, and the woman he now saw was bandaging him, didn't know that. He was just glad that he would be spending his final hour with these kind people.

In another room, Prof. Oak finally got an answer to his phone calls. Prof. Birch sleepily said, "Hello Samuel. Why are you calling at this late hour? And why are you so flustered?"

Prof. Oak quickly responded, "I need all data you have on the legendary pokemon Latios."

"Why?"

"One just crashed into my lab."

"WHAT" Prof. Elm was now wide awake. "I need the details!"

"Not now. He's injured. I need the data so that we can try to help him out."

"Done." Prof. Elm said as he started furiously looking through files on his computer. "We don't have much, but this should help you out."

"Thanks," Prof. Oak said as he received the file. "I'll give you an update in a couple of hours." He then hung up and walked out to talk with his guest.

Meanwhile, Luke was doing his best to help the pokemon. It looked up to him with thanks in his eyes as it ate another berry from his hand. Suddenly, he heard a voice in his head. "Thanks for helping me," it said. Luke jumped and looked around, trying to figure out where the voice had come from. His mom froze applying the salve she had been putting on a nasty looking cut on its side. The professor stared for a moment and then glanced down at his datapad.

"Please continue giving me those berries. They are my favorite kind." Luke looked down at the pokemon lying on the ground in a pile of rubble. "Was that you?" he said staring in shock at the blue and white creature.

"It would make sense." Professor Oak said kneeling beside Luke. "Latios is a psychic type. It's no long shot that he would know telepathy."

Olivia shrugged and continued where she left off with the treatment. I guess this could be considered normal compared to the other crazy things I've heard about happening, she thought as she applied a splint to his wing.

Luke gasped as he realized something. "We need to get him off of this rubble!" he yelled as he attempted to lift up the large Eon, at which he failed miserably, being five. Latios looked in wonder at the young boy struggling to lift his weight. Could he be the one? he thought. No, I was told that I could feel him. But, he will play an important role in the journey of the Chosen One. He has a strong Aura, even at his young age. He may be close to an equal to the Chosen One in terms of Aura skills. My abilities, however, are needed to help the Chosen One. I know what I have to do.

"I can lift myself. Thanks for the thought though" Latios said as he weekly levitated about a foot of the ground and struggled over the couch that was sitting nearby. He flopped down heavily and winced in pain. "As I said earlier, Thank you for helping me when you did not know me. I appreciate your assistance. However, I do not have much time left, and I have something very important to tell you. I was given a mission to help someone. Only someone with my abilities can do this job. However, I was greatly injured by a group of people hoping to use my powers for their own gain. I have to pass my role on to someone else." At this point, he looked at Luke.

"Wha-, you mean me!?" Luke said slightly shivering. He was five! He could not do whatever job required the abilities of a legendary!

"Yes. I can pass my abilities on to another because I have no sibling." At this point, Professor Oak gasped. This data shows that almost all Latios have a Latias sibling. He thought. Latios continued, "This means that I have more power than usual.

"Now," he said, looking at Luke. "Before you make a decision, you should know two things. One, there will be some side effects. Two, you will not be needed for many years, so you will have time to learn about what you can do and what your role will be, as well as lead a semi-normal life."

Luke thought for a moment, something not a lot of five-year-olds can do, before he said, "Yes. I may be young but I can still help!" He was grinning at the chance to learn something new. (And show up Prof. Oak's jerk grandson, Gary. That kid was always getting on their nerves.)

"Thank you," Latios replied. Then, privately, he told Olivia and the Professor, "You should know what is about to happen. When Luke absorbs my aura, he will become a hybrid. He will become a Laitos, but be unable to be caught due to still being part human. He will be able to disguise himself as a human: what he would look like at that time if he had not accepted my offer" Both adults nodded, understanding what was going to occur.

"Let us begin," Latios said to the whole group. He held out his claw and formed a blue orb that was flecked with red. "Luke, place your hand on this sphere." Luke complied, and Latios continued. "Focus on your very being, what makes you, well, you. Focus on pushing that energy you feel into the orb you are touching." Luke closed his eyes and scrunched up his face as only a five-year-old can, and slowly, silver began to flow into the orb, starting by his fingertips. Latios's color became faded and his outline blurry as he pushed everything he had into the orb.

Suddenly, a bright flash of light filled the room, and when it died down, Latios was gone. Then the orb that was in Luke's hand began to glow, and it began to surround him. "Mom, what's going on?" Luke said, panicking slightly. His mom looked at the Professor, who was furiously scribbling on his notepad, recording everything he saw. Then, the orb disappeared, and Luke collapsed to the floor, his mom rushing to catch him.

As she did, his body began to glow and shift. Both adults stared ad in Luke's place, a small Latios child lay. Unlike others, this one was royal blue and white. It sat up slowly and looked around.

Luke's head hurt. He sat up and looked around. "What happened to me?" he said. All his parents heard was, "Tios?"

"Um, Luke? Could you try telepathy as Latios did?" his mom responded. Luke nodded and then somehow remembered how to project words into their heads. "What happened to me?"

Professor Oak replied. "We believe that you have become a Latios-human hybrid. This means that you cannot be caught but still have all the abilities of a Latios."

This is so cool. Luke thought as he began testing out his new body. He could read minds, fly, and attack like a pokemon. He started flying around the two adults in the room, making their eyes spin as they tried to keep track of him. "This is fun!" he yelled as he shot around the room.

"Slow down! You're making us dizzy!" his mom said. Luke complied and settles down a bit. "Now, before Latios left, he told us that you could turn back into your human form to blend in.

"Yes, I just looked up how psychic pokemon change form. It appears you just have to imagine yourself as the form you want, and just put extra energy into that form to sleep." Prof. Oak said. Luke tried this, and a soft glow enveloped him. When the glow faded, Luke stood there, looking like he had before the transformation. He looked down at himself, enjoying being back. However, he could not ignore the power that lay dormant inside him. He looked at his mother, then tacked her with a hug. "I'm back!" he yelled, glad that he could still talk in human form. His mom hugged him back tightly.

"Ahem," Prof. Oak said behind them. "Luke, seeing how you are a bit young right now, why don't we wait for a year or two before you start training, Okay?"

"Sure!" Luke said, happily. He would love his new powers!

Three years later:

"Let's race to my house!" Ash said before letting go of the ladder that led to their treehouse and sprinting into the woods. Luke grinned at his best friend's actions. He then considered turning into his Latios form to beat him but decided against it. His mother and the Professor had stressed, ever since that night, he must never show his pokemon abilities to anyone unless it was necessary. So he settled with a run that quickly gained on his friend.

Luke grinned as he thought about all that had happened since that night. He had discovered the next day that he could understand pokemon when they talked. That had led to awkward conversations when they realized that the little boy they knew so well could now understand them. Those quickly stopped when word spread that he was now half legendary, and it had taken a week for him to convince them that he was the same person. Ash and been confused when they started groveling at Luke's feet, as they had just had their sixth birthday party, but he didn't ask questions because soon they stopped.

When Luke turned eight, his mom surprised him by saying that he could go over to the lab once a week at night to train in pokemon form. He was ecstatic as this meant that he could spend more time with Ash than he originally thought he could once he began training. In the year since then, he lad mastered multiple moves of different types and was working on some new ones.

Suddenly, he saw Ash freeze. He quickly caught up and saw what it was. A band of Mankeys led by a Primape were blocking the path. They looked at each other, and then the Mankeys dove towards them, led by their leader and attempted to use Low Sweep to knock them off of their feet.

Luke acted fast. He could feel the hostility in those pokemon and knew he had to get Ash out of there. He quickly launched an Aura Sphere at the leader ( A/N. Before you start flaming me, remember, I said that he had a really powerful aura), and then grabbed Ash's arm and Teleported about 20 feet backward. He then quickly transformed and shot towards the attacking band of pokemon with a combo move of Quick Attack and Steel Wing.

Needless to say, the band of fighting type scattered like bowling pins. Luke shot back towards Ash and transformed back into his human form. Ash stared at him in disbelief. "You just..."

"Yep"

"They just…"

"Yep"

"When did..."

"About three years ago. Remember that day when the roof of the lab was destroyed?"

"Yeah,"

"That was a Latios. It had a mission but was injured and had to pass it on to me because apparently, I was the only one who could continue it. It also ended up giving me it's abilities." Luke replied after Ash finished his string of two-word sentences. Ash just stared at him in awe.

"Dude why did you not tell me!? This is the best thing that ever happened to Pallet! A legendary visited and now one lives here!" Ash yelled, shaking his friend roughly by the shoulders. Luke got slightly dizzy from all that shaking.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you why. Just let me go first." Luke said. Ash let go and the pair began to walk home. "I'll start with your first question. I didn't tell you because Mom and Professor Oak told me not to tell anyone. They didn't want me to become a target for the people who had injured the Latios in the first place. Also, I really liked the idea of having a secret." Ash punched Luke's arm playfully.

Luke ignored the hit and kept talking. "The only other people who know about me are the professors in all the different regions and my mom. As to a legendary visiting, it was more of a crash landing. And the legendary living here is not entirely accurate. While I do have the form and powers of a legendary, I am only a hybrid, still half-human. All that really means is that I can't be captured in a Pokeball."

"Whatever. I still think it's really cool. You got to show me some more powers tomorrow." Ash said as they arrived at Luke's house.

"You got it!" Luke replied as he opened his door. "See you tomorrow!"

"See you!" Ash yelled as he jogged towards his house.

Luke closed the door and turned around. He walked into the kitchen and saw his mom making dinner. "Hey, Mom," Luke said as he began to set the table.

"Hello, honey. What were you talking with Ash about?"

"We ran into a group of Mankey, and I had to defend us," Luke said proudly. His mother looked at him and sighed.

"How did he take you being a hybrid?" she asked, concerned about her son.

"Surprisingly well. He wants me to show him some of my abilities tomorrow. I think I'm going to start with the invisibility," Luke replied, ginning. His mom grinned as well, remembering her reaction when she learned Luke had figured out how to disappear.
