Chaos: Whew, I managed to publish something

Treecko: Yeah, you said you would update two week ago

Chaos: Yeah, I know and I'm sorry for it but I've said it before. I've had quite a lot going on and I just had to deal with it

Treecko: Whatever you say, anyways disclaimer

In the stadium

Raiden's POV

I watched as the Umbreon was sent tumbling to the ground and crash down onto the battlefield. Smoke erupted as the Umbreon collided with the ground. I slowly walked up to the Umbreon confidently and picked him up by the neck. I smirked as I spoke. "Honestly, kid. Did you really think you stood a chance against me?" I slammed his head into the ground before lifting him back up. "You should have just left when you had the chance" I said before starting to charge up another Hyper Beam. "You're finished" and I readied my attack.

All of a sudden I felt a slight pain coursing through my arms. I flinched for a second and then I felt a powerful kick hit my abdomen. I fell to my knees before seeing the Umbreon standing glaring sinisterly at me. His body was covered in scratches and bruises and yet he looked fine. His normally red and black eyes had an outline of black surrounding it, while his body was engulfed by a dark-looking aura and his yellow rings would occasionally change to a light blue colour. Only one word could describe such a transformation. Evil.

I stood back up and stared down the monster that laid before me before launching my attack before I snapped out of my fear "Stone Edge" I yelled out as I launched sharp rocks directly at the Umbreon. He gave a devilish smirk and from my head I heard. "Is that all".

My eyes widened as the Umbreon just disappeared before my attack could reach him. I then felt his presence behind me before being struck by a powerful force. I fell to my knees, shaken by the attack. I opened my eyes to see the Umbreon in front of me smiling sadistically into my soul. I truly felt shaken to the core.

"I hope that's not all you are capable of. Because if it is I will be very disappointed". It was taunting me. That… thing was taunting me. I had him on the rope then in a couple of seconds he had turned the tables on me. I felt my pride get repeatedly pummelled. I felt a sudden burst of energy from my anger as I stood back up. "Do not underestimate me" I yelled before pouring all my energy into one final Hyper Beam. I fired the large beam directly at the Umbreon. The beam engulfed him in a matter of second before exploding on impact.

Ace's POV

"Thunderbolt!" I yelled out as I sent out my attack directly at the paralysed Blastoise. He gave a look of defiance before he was consumed by the electric attack. The attack erupted in black smoke and as the smoke cleared I saw the Blastoise lying on the ground defeated. I sat down to catch my breath smiling at my victory.

My relief was shortly lived as a giant explosion occurred behind me. I looked back to see in happened in another part of the arena. I could help but feel as if something bad was happening. "Hope you guys, are OK"

No one's POV

Raiden fell to his knees exhausted from his counter-attack, he glanced up to see the Umbreon was nowhere to be seen. "Did I beat him?" He asked in-between breaths.

"Hehe, what do you think" he heard once again in his head. Raiden turned back around quickly to see a fully charged Dark Pulse head straight for him. He being too tired to react took the attack head on and crashed into the wall. He felt the last bit of energy leave his body as he collapsed onto the floor. "Game over" Was the last thing he heard before falling to the ground defeated.

By the stands

Caster's POV

"Hmm, something's not right about how Chrono's battle ended, he was about to be ended before he received a sudden boost of power and annihilated Raiden, not to mention his level of aura seemed to increase dramatically as well. That increase of aura. It felt dark and chaotic…"

"Hey Caster, are you still in there" A voice cut of my train of thoughts as I turned to see Lucy looking at me with a worried expression. "Are you okay, you don't seem too well" She asked.

I smiled back at her. "It's nothing, honestly" I started to trail off. "Just something doesn't seem right".

"You sure you're alright" She asked obviously still not convinced.

"I appreciate that you worry about me but honestly there isn't anything wrong" I assured her as I did not wish to include Lucy in my thoughts.

I smiled to see that her expression lightened up. "If you say so but if there is anything wrong just tell me, okay"

I nodded my head before turning back to the battles.

"It's nice to know that she cares. Actually she has been acting a lot nicer to me recently. Maybe it's just me" I turned back to my original question and pondered about Chrono. "I still wondered what happened back there".

Again my thoughts were cut off again as I heard Rose yelling out. "Hey guys. Chrono, Flash and Ace made it past the first round, too bad Barry didn't though"

"That's unfortunate, but hopefully the others will make it through to the second round as well" Luna added

"But mainly, you want Chrono to win, right" Rose asked while winking at Luna.

Luna again blushed to the response "Wait, I never said that, Rose!"

The gang started to laugh again as I went back to my thoughts. "Where did he even come from anyways? He just appeared that one day and yet none of us even asked where he was from. When I also met him for the first time, when I tried to check his aura… something prevented me from doing so. What was it? I need some answers" I glanced over to see Luna. "Maybe she knows something".

"Hey Luna" I called out as she turned over to me.

"Yes, Caster. what is it?" She asked

"Where did Chrono come from" I asked. She thought for a moment before returning back to me.

"Honestly I don't actually know. The first time I met him, he didn't say anything about where he was from" She replied

"Wait, did he actually tell you anything, because it doesn't seem like he talks at all". I saw Luna stared to panic. It was barely noticeable as she covered it up well, but I could see distinctly that she was trying to find a way out.

"Oh, he just…um…wrote it down and showed it to us, yeah" She replied. Though I knew she was lying I could see no way that I could get her to tell the truth so I played along.

"Oh I see, thanks for that" I replied to her

"No problem, now let's continue watching. The second round is about to start now" She said before turning her head quickly to the battlefield.

"Yeah let's" I replied before turning back to the arena. "She's hiding something, and I'm going to find out what"

In the arena

No one's POV

"Well, it looks as though we made it into the second round, good job you two" Ace said to the group.

"No sweat, it wasn't too difficult to be honest" Flash said proudly

"Modest as always aren't you" We turned to see Barry walk over to us.

"Hey Barry, sorry you lost your fight, who was it against?" Ace asked

"A Roserade, her name was Thorn. Don't underestimate her, she is one tough opponent" Barry said wincing at his loss

"Thanks for the tip, we'll keep it in mind" Ace turned to Chrono "So how was your fight, you went up against Raiden didn't you?" Chrono nodded

"And you beat him, that's impressive. I'll have to be careful if we end up fighting" Ace said to which Chrono gave him smirk.

"Alright then, the second round shall now be determined" The Loudred announced out. "The screen will now show your opponents"

The screen scrambled the names until they lined up to show the matches.

"Looks like I'm against a Machamp" Ace said in a confident voice

"And I've got a Luxray" Chrono thought to himself

"And I'm up against, Thorn" Flash said to himself and then turned to Barry. "Hey Barry, I'll get revenge on her just for you"

"You'd better be careful, she's not gonna be a pushover. With type advantages and whatnot"

"I'll be fine don't worry about it" Flash smiled but Barry still did not look convinced.

"If you say so…" He replied unsurely.

"The fights will start in half an hour. Good luck to you all" Loudred yelled out before running off.

"That means we have time to see the others quickly let's go" Ace yelled before running off. Barry and Flash chased after but not before noticing Chrono was walking off somewhere else. "Hey Chrono, aren't you coming to join us" Flash called out to him. The black fox turned and just shook his head before walking away.

"That's weird, we'll have to tell the others in a second" Barry said

"Noted, now let's go" Flash said before they hurried off to follow Ace.

Chrono's POV

"What happened out there" I thought to myself "Why did I blank out, and how did I win?"

Another voice ran through my head. It was sinister and sadistic-like tone, almost as if it were taunting it's dying prey. "You blanked out because you were weak, as for your victory you can thank yours truly"

"Who are you, and what do you want" I asked threateningly

It put on a mocking tone "You don't know who I am, I am hurt" I growled in my head but it did not put off the demon's tone. "For now, you don't need to know who I am. Now as for what I want… I guess I haven't tasted blood in a while, so maybe a bit of that"

I was stunned by what it said. But I still had my doubts. "Don't joke with me, what do you really want from me"

The voice went from mocking to slightly annoyed. "As I've said all I want is a little blood, nothing else. And if you think I want your aura, you're sadly mistaken". I was taken aback, how he knew about my aura.

"How do you know my aura, are you a hunter" I yelled in my head

"Again, I'm not after your aura. And no, I'm not a hunter. Technically we're the same being, now enough with cryptic messages, I need to feast"

I pondered in confusion of what he said before feeling a painful sting in my head. It felt like my brain was trying to lash out of my head. I felt my energy sap out of my body as I slowly fell unconscious. "Sleep tight, hehehe" I heard before drifting off into the shadows.

?'s POV

I stood back up feeling energised and ready, ready to hunt. I felt it, a thirst for killing and an urge to hear blood-curdling screams. I've waited long enough and my time to rise has finally risen.

"Let the true fun, commence!"

Chaos: Oh that was fun, my sadistic side almost went over-board

Treecko: I see, so when will you update next

Chaos: Honestly I don't know, I've still got more things to deal with and I've got tests, so I can't say for certain, I'm sorry for the inconsistency but I cannot do much about it. I hope you can understand and I will try to update more often. See ya
