So the update deadlines are getting longer, but that's because the school year is ending. Once that is done with, I'm probably going to go back to my old update schedule. Maybe a little longer because I'm starting to get interested in my own stories and I might continue those.

Chapter 26: Serena vs Krystal

(Krystal)

I woke up feeling as if I forgot something. I dreamt of something awesome, but I can't remember what. Whatever it was, it didn't matter because I'm in the Johto room, between Gold's arms. I can't even remember how many times I wished I was here instead of the barren Distortion World, cold and lonely. I smile as I wriggle out of Gold's grip, careful not to wake him up. However, I frown when I get off the bed.

Wait a minute. How am I awake before Gold? Normally I oversleep and Gold ends up waking me up. What time is it?

I look at the clock and realize that it's still pretty early. It's unusual for me to wake up this early. What's the occasion? What happens today that has me waking up early.

While I put on my clothes, I grin as I remember my dream and why I'm awake early.

Today I'm battling Serena.

(Downstairs, back in third person)

For the first time, Serena saw Red frown and smile at the sight of Krystal descending the stairs.

"I guess it takes a Pokémon battle for you to wake up early." Most of the Legends were already up and eating their breakfast.

"You think I wouldn't be excited to finally have a battle with a Legend after 13 years? I'm dying to stretch my Trainer muscles again."

Krystal then sent Serena a terrifying glare.

"I feel like I'm being preyed on by a shark." Serena whispered to Calem.

"Don't think about it too much." He shrugged. "You're lucky Hilda let you fight her in the first place."

"Right. I guess I'll just have to try my best."

"So," Krystal sat down with a smirk on her face. "You ready for a beating?"

Serena tried her best not to show how nervous she was. "We'll see."

"Then let's see it now." Krystal got up and headed for the door, followed by Serena.

(After the ride)

"Ah, the Burned Tower." Krystal looked around the place, remembering when Gold, Lyra, and her first found the Legendary trio of the Johto region. "I would never guess this would the first place I'd visit after escaping the Distortion World." She released her Heracross.

"I guess it is now." Serena responded while choosing her Pyroar.

The same strategy works every time against her. Krystal thought. This time, however, I will not only target her Gardevoir, I will use it against her.

"Rock Blast." Krystal commanded.

"Flamethrower!"

Krystal's Heracross Mega-evolved but got hit by Flamethrower, losing 51%. (Heracross has 49%)

However, the Mega-evolved Heracross used Rock Blast and hit 5 times, defeating Pyroar.

But Serena didn't let Pyroar's loss get to her and proclaimed:

"Yveltal!" as the the Legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region appeared on the battleground.

But Krystal predicted this move and switched to her Suicune.

"Hydro Pump."

"Foul Play!"

Yveltal was unsurprisingly faster than Suicune and dealt 31% damage. Suicune then took Yveltal down to 44%.

"Again."

"Oblivion Wing to regain health!"

Yveltal healed up to 69% and dealt 34% at the same time but Suicune left Yveltal at 13% afterwards. (Suicune has 35%)

"Now Extreme Speed to finish it off!"

"Escape with Phantom Force!"

But it was too late. Suicune dealt the final blow before Yveltal could move.

Serena shook off the fact that Yveltal fainted and grabbed a pokéball.

She's probably going to use Gardevoir now. Time to put the plan into action.

Krystal switched to her Ditto at the same time that Serena released her Gardevoir.

Gardevoir immediately mega-evolved and Ditto's ability Imposter made it instantly transform into Mega Gardevoir.

"Thank you." Krystal grinned.

Serena was slightly angry, but she responded. "You're welcome. Psychic!"

However, Krystal kept her new Mega Gardevoir and switched for her Celebi, who took 30% damage.

"Metronome!"

"Moonblast!"

Despite having the same speed, Celebi went first and used Hyper Beam to leave Mega Gardevoir at 47%.

Suicune then left Celebi at 6%.

"Thank you Celebi." Krystal thanked Celebi, who had to rest after using Hyper Beam.

"Draining Kiss."

Gardevoir defeated Celebi and healed up to 72%.

"Now Mega Gardevoir! Hyper Voice!"

"You too!"

But Krystal's Mega Gardevoir struck first and finished Serena's off.

"Aegislash!" Serena released her fourth Pokémon.

"You think I wouldn't know you would try to get a type advantage?" Krystal chuckled as she switched for her Houndoom.

Dammit. Serena bit her finger. I'm down to three pokémon and she stole my Mega Gardevoir. Not only that, but she did it so carefully that her's still has 100% health.

"Foul Play!" Krystal grinned, thrilled by the exciting battle.

"Iron Head!"

Houndoom attacked first and finished Aegislash off before it could move.

"Chesnaught! Hammer Arm!"

"Ok." Krystal laughed as she switched Houndoom for her Gliscor. "That time I just wanted to show you my Gliscor. I didn't even try to counter your switch."

Serena was clearly angry now, but she commanded Chesnaught to do so anyway.

"Ok, Gliscor! Acrobatics!"

Krystal's Pokémon was once again faster and defeated Chesnaught in one hit.

Serena had one Pokémon left.

"Okay Gliscor come back! I'm going to finish this with her own weapon!" Krystal switched Gliscor with Mega Gardevoir.

"Goodra! Earthquake!"

One last time, Krystal's Pokémon hit first. This time, however, it finished the battle as well.

"I...lost." Serena looked down.

"And I only lost one Pokémon." She grinned, but then approached her with sympathy, rubbing her shoulder.

"Come on. It's not surprising, is it? You already lost to Hilda last time. You just allowed me to fight Leaf this time. I thank you for that."

Serena looked up and nodded with a small smile.

(Back at the House)

"So," Leaf smiled as she leaned back on her chair. "Next time it's me against Leaf."

This provoked a reaction from Leaf. This reaction was a chuckle and a smirk.

"Ready to lose again, huh?" She remembered last time they battled.

"It's different now."

"We'll see about that."

They grinned.

Finally. That's done. I'm pretty excited now. That was one of the best battles I've ever written and I'm pretty happy with the results.

(Also, the reason I didn't add in more Legend moments is because I'm in a hurry but at least I wrote the chapter.)

Anyways, please remember to review as always!
