The knight followed N down the halls of the castle. "So how did you find your way in to this place?" N asked.
"I fell in to an open portal. After several tries to break out, I embraced the chaos and became a knight." He explained.
"And why did you set your weapon down?" N asked.
"You were neither friend nor foe. I had no reason to attack. I was also curious about this new castle that seemed to appear." He explained.
"You're a smart boy. I like that." N said as he opened the door to what appeared to be a laboratory. On a table were three half-sphere crystals; N picked one up. "Do you know what these are?"
"Capture crystals." The knight said examining it.
"But they are so much more. These are the master crystals." He said while the knight just stared at him. N began explaining the concept. "My scientists have taken the capture crystals that you know and created one of perfection that can capture any Pokémon. Once the Pokémon is captured, the crystals typically change shape to accommodate their powers."
"What's the plan with them?" The knight asked setting it down.
"I plan to capture Reshiram and Zekrom, and it shouldn't be too hard since in this plane I have an infinite amount of time to track them and open a portal to their exact location." N said smiling. "With them, I shall rule all of Unova, and then the world."
"That's not going to happen on our watch." A voice said as the door burst open revealing Ash, Brock, May, and Max.
"Oh, children. Knight, can you deal with them? I have some preparations to make." N said teleporting away.
"With pleasure." The knight said holding up his sword. "Emerge, Weavile." He commanded as the creature emerged from the blade. "Shadow ball." He called out as it blasted the trainers with a ball of dark energy.
"Combusken, flamethrower." May called out.
"Dodge it, and then use slash." The knight countered with incredible agility and speed as the Combusken was knocked to the ground. "Glalie, ice beam!" The knight shouted holding up his glove and the Pokémon emerged blasting the trainers.
"Pikachu, use thunderbolt!" Ash yelled while his Pikachu leapt up high unleashing a bolt of lightning on the Weavile.
"Get up! Now use shadow ball once more. Glalie help out Weavile with a blizzard." The knight ordered his Pokémon as it whipped up a snow storm that rendered the other Pokémon vulnerable to the shadow ball attacks.
"Retreat!" Brock shouted as they recalled their Pokémon and ran from the castle.
"They were smart to run." N said reappearing. "I shall reward you for your efforts that would have taken at least ten guards." He handed the knight a master crystal. "I also have a Pokémon lined up for you to catch." N said smiling with his own thoughts.
Little does he know that the crystals are untested, and he will be the guinea pig for this. I'll have him capture a legendary Pokémon, and if it's successful then I'll go capture Zekrom and Reshiram, and set my real plan in to action.
"Thank you." The knight said stowing the crystal.
"Oh it's no problem at all. You deserve it." N responded. "Now please come with me. I have your Pokémon waiting for you."
Meanwhile…
Ash and the others regrouped at the cavern. "That knight was really strong." Ash said breathing heavily.
"I wish we had Aaron. He could have taken him down." Max sighed.
"We all miss him, but we have to do this on our own." Brock also sighed.
May stood up and looked at them. "We're going to stop N and make Aaron proud. We'll train as hard as we can and get stronger. Then we'll take N and that knight down and find Aaron."
"Let's do it." Ash said as the others all nodded their heads in agreement.
"I know you're still alive, somewhere. Please be okay, Aaron." May thought to herself clenching her hands together with her eyes closed.
"Are you okay?" Brock asked.
"I'm fine. Let's go." May said regaining her composure. "We'll find you Aaron, whatever it takes."
N stood with the knight in his lab; N held the remote for a portal generator in his hand. "Knight, Arcticuno is known to land on icy mountain tops, and our research shows that is will be on the one that I'm opening a portal to. I want you to capture it." N pushed a few buttons on the remote opening the portal. "Let's go and meet your destiny." The knight pulled the master crystal from his pocket and looked at it briefly in his hand. He nodded his head and walked through the portal while N smiled as he followed.
Little did they know that Ash and his friends had broken in to the lab once more and were watching from afar. "Should we follow them?" Ash asked.
"No, it could be dangerous. Let's just stay here and watch the portal." Brock told him.
The knight approached the peak of the mountain while N walked behind him. At the top, Arcticuno was perched on the tip of the mountain. It looked down on N and the knight who approached it. It shot an ice beam at them which made N jump back while the knight continued to approach. "Arcticuno, as a knight of the Lost Plane under the leadership of Lord N, I command you to accept your fate." Arcticuno screeched loudly as the knight held up the master crystal absorbing the Pokémon who was writhing in agony. The crystal's shape became a blue triangle with a web-like pattern in it. The crystal attached itself to the chest plate of the knight's armor causing the whole armor to glow briefly before the crystal settled in to place.
"Excellent work." N smiled at him.
"Did he just capture Arcticuno?" Ash asked rubbing his eyes.
"He did." Brock said.
"Let's go. We don't want to be here when they get back." Max said.
"Too late." N said smiling evilly as the portal closed. "Why don't you demonstrate your new power for me?"
The knight's chest glowed as he walked forward; the ground beneath his feet grew patches of ice as a vortex of frost and snow blasted the group. "Pikachu, thunderbolt!" Ash shouted as the knight was blasted with several volts of electricity. He fell on to his knee shaking from the electricity that was still coursing through his body.
"Combusken, use flamethrower." May ordered. The knight had no time to regain his composure as he was knocked on to his back.
"Get up and go after them!" N shouted as the trainers ran off leaving the knight lying on the ground.
The knight stood up glaring at N. "I'm sorry I was just dealing with several volts of electricity coursing through my body followed by a flamethrower attack." He said sarcastically.
"Whatever. We have something else to do now."
"What?" The knight asked still angry with N.
"Reshiram and Zekrom of course. They are my destiny, and I will catch them and rule the world with them. They are going to appear together over a small volcano in the Kanto region, and I'm going to catch them. Let's go." N said opening up another portal. The two stood on the edge of the volcano where sure enough the two Pokémon landed ready to clash. They were about to attack, but N flew over them using his jet pack and landed between them. "You two shall serve me. I am your new master!" He shouted holding up a master crystal to each of them. They were both absorbed in to the crystals where he integrated them on to his arms. The crystals remained like half spheres one black and one white where they rested on the top of his hands. The lights outlining his suit also changed. One half became the blue resembling the electricity emitted by Zekrom while the other reflected the fire emitted by Reshiram.
The portal returned them to the Lost Plane. N walked outside of the castle with the knight following closely behind to protect his master. "Reshiram and Zekrom, show me your immense power!" N commanded as he raised both of his hands to the sky creating a beacon of light that gave off an incredible energy. Ash and the others could see the light from the cavern and cringed seeing the incredible power emitted by the legendary Pokémon.
"We rest for now, but afterwards we shall take Unova." N said before walking off. The knight followed with the crystal in his chest plate glowing briefly.
