Cut to scene: Castelia Pokémon Center. Enter Hilda and Victini. Victini hands Hilda a cup of water.
Victini: How long do you think it will take for Diancie to heal?
Hilda: She's part Rock type so the burns aren't all that bad.
Victini: As I said before; Pokémon are the reflection of their trainers. If your Pokémon love to fight with all they have not matter what the odds… then you do as well.
Hilda: I guess your right about that! Although sometimes, my strength does get the better of me… much like my Pokémon.
Victini: Yeah, I saw your brawl between you and Virizion last night. You got guts to take her on. It wasn't the smartest of moves… but guts none the less.
Hilda: You saw that?
Victini: Like I said: I have been watching over you and your sister all along. You're one tough human! You are the Princess of Ideals after all.
Hilda: It's been like that ever since I can remember. I always had this 'fire' inside me that just yearned to become stronger. I don't know why, but that's what I have always felt. At times, it has gotten in the way, but I have learned to deal with it. And I am not as strong as everyone thinks I am… I still have a long way to go.
Victini: Well... you're stronger than any other human I've seen your age.
Hilda: Victini, may I ask you a question?
Victini: Sure.
Hilda: Do you know anything about Kyurem?
Victini (Getting sad): Yeah, I know him. I've known him for a long time. We were once partners fighting alongside Sir Huge all those centuries ago.
Hilda: Sir Huge?
Victini: He was the first and True Hero told in history – the one who brought end to the first Unova war before his son and daughter begun the second one. He was the father of the twins, and the one Kyurem instilled his friendship and trust to before his separation.
Hilda: Oh, I see.
Enter Diancie
Hilda: Hey, Diancie.
Victini: For centuries, I had to watch Kyurem's descent into madness. Everyone had forgotten about him… but not me. Thinking about it now… I wish I did; at least then, I would have been spared the pain of seeing such a close friend and comrade become so ravished and destroyed by revenge and madness. Even now that he is free I cannot return to his side, since what he has in store for the world is what I detest – complete annulations of everything in the name of vengeance. He is an enemy that needs to be stopped!
Hilda: You must have cared for Kyurem very much.
Victini: Indeed I did. My desire to stop Kyurem is why I have come to you, Hilda. You may not know this, but you have right to a power hidden within this region. It is this power that can bring end to Kyurem's madness and rage. A power that can tame the most untamable.
Hilda: Really? What is this power?
Victini: That, I cannot tell you. I don't want to force fate, but I will at least guide you on the right path. It will all eventually pan out, so until then worry about your safety and start gathering the others who have yet to choose a side.
Hilda: Choose a side?
Victini: To choose to fight alongside you, or against you under Kyurem's ranks – much like Cobalion and his siblings. We may as well be at war Hilda. We need all the power we can get. Find others like me and coerce them to fight with you.
Hilda: Others like you… you mean legendaries?
Victini: In fact, I can start you off by introducing you to a friend of mine who is working within this city. She's a legendary like me. I'm sure she's performing at the café as we speak. Why don't we go there now and come back here later?
They exit and re-enter as the set changes to Café Sonata. A green haired woman enters. It is Meloetta. She begins to sing.
Meloetta: Think of me. Think of me fondly when we've said goodbye. Remember me once in a while; please promise me you'll try. When you find that once again you long to take your heart back and be free, if you ever find a moment, spare a thought for me.
Hilda: Wow, she's really good.
Victini: I've always enjoyed hearing her sing. That's Meloetta. She's a Legendary Being like me. Unlike the others, she and I continued to adjust to the times as the world progressed.
Meloetta: We never said our love was evergreen, or as unchanging as the sea, but if you can still remember, stop and think of me ... Think of all the things we've shared and seen. Don't think about the way things might have been ... Think of me, think of me waking silent and resigned. Imagine me, trying too hard to put you from my mind. Recall those days, look back on all those times, think of the things we'll never do. There will never be a day, when I won't think of you...
Hilda: Whoa, that voice!
Victini: She's an amazing soprano no doubt. Meloetta has been singing as an occupation for centuries now. But then again, that is her specialty; she is the Being of Song after all. The embodiment of music and dance.
Meloetta: Flowers fade, the fruits of summer fade, they have their seasons, so do we. But please promise me that sometimes, you will think… Ah ah ah ah ah… Ah ah ah ah ah... Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah… Of me!
Hilda: Bravo!
Victini: Meloetta! Come hither, will ya?
(Meloetta walks down from the stage.)
Meloetta: Hey there, Victini! I wasn't expecting you until later.
Victini: Hey, Meloetta. I figured you'd be working right about now, so I thought I'd drop by and introduce you to a new friend of mine. Hilda, this is Meloetta the Being of Song. Meloetta, this is Hilda, Professor Juniper's daughter. It turns out she's one of the reincarnated twins. And do you remember Diancie?
Meloetta: Oh, I see. And yes, it's so nice to see you again, Diancie. I was just wondering why you gave her my actual title so casually, but if she is a chosen one of fate, then I guess it's appropriate. How do you do, Hilda dear?
Hilda: I'm good. It's an honor to meet you.
Victini: Meloetta, you know why I've come here…
Meloetta: Yes. Do not worry, you have my full support. I want to stop Kyurem just as much as you do.
Victini: I knew you would say that.
Meloetta: My set is done, which means I am off for the rest of the day. So Miss Hilda, where to next?
Hilda: Let's go to to the hotel, where I will debrief the others about you guys. Zekrom and I got a new room after our old one was destroyed.
Meloetta: Then lead the way, oh, fearless leader.
They exit and re-enter as the set changes to the Castelia Hotel restaurant, along with Zekrom, Hilbert, N, and Professor Juniper.
Hilda: Hi, mum.
Professor Juniper: How's it going, sweetie?
Hilda: Great! I'm sure you've heard of Diancie. She, Meloetta, Victini and I are going to tell you about what we know so far.
Victini: So, Professor Juniper, I've been watching Kyurem like a hawk and gathering as much information as I could before revealing myself to Hilda. I've also discovered that it was Ghetsis himself who signed your daughter's death warrant, as well as N's.
Professor Juniper: Victini, have you met Hilbert?
Victini: No.
Professor Juniper: Hilbert, this is Victini. Victini, this is my son, Hilbert.
Hilbert: Nice to meet you, Victini.
Victini: You and Hilda have a very nice mother.
N: I figured dad would do something as deadly as that. I have a plan. We need to gather the remaining Unova legendaries.
Cheren: Did you say there's a fourth sibling? Does that mean that Keldeo would be on their side already?
Victini: I don't think so. Keldeo had a falling out with his other siblings centuries ago. In fact, it was right after the second war when Cobalion and the others shunned him. Ever since then, he has been running across this region never stopping, trying to forget. Wherever there is water, you can be sure Keldeo will be there, running atop the water's surface to wherever the current takes him.
Diancie: That's a little sad…
Victini: Cobalion's a jerk, what more can I say. If you don't agree with him, you're against him. Simple as that.
Zekrom: Why do we need the others, anyway? Not only do you have Reshiram and I – the most powerful of the Unova Beings – but we also have these heroes and their legendary friends arriving soon. We already have enough power to take on that monster, so why waste time looking for those drunken idiot brothers and a scared little boy?
Victini: Wait… there are others coming?
Reshiram: That's right. The ones born from Arceus and Angeallen's own flesh and bone will be joining us.
Victini: Really? This will be the first time we've ever met the others, isn't it? When will they be arriving?
Professor Juniper: Not long now. About four hours.
They all exit and re-enter as the set changes to Castelia Harbor. From stage left, Dawn, Dialga, Giratina and Professor Oak enter. Hilda talks with Zekrom in the background while her mother talks to Professor Oak.
Professor Juniper: Professor Oak! It's good to see you teach! How was your trip?
Professor Oak: There was a small bump in the road. But other than that, it was an enjoyable cruise. How have things been holding up here?
Professor Juniper: Well, I guess you could say that it could be better; Kyurem has begun to make his move.
Professor Oak: I see. Then we much act quickly.
Professor Juniper: And you must be Dawn Rowan, the World Pokémon Champion of Sinnoh and hero to us all. It's a pleasure to meet you.
Dawn: Hi, it's great to meet you too.
Professor Juniper: Might I introduce you to our current Unova champion? Hilda!
Hilda: Coming, mum!
(Hilda races over to her mother and Dawn.)
Professor Juniper: Dawn, this is Hilda Juniper, my daughter, and our current Unova Champion. Hilda, meet Dawn, the World Champion of Sinnoh. She's your competition!
Hilda: Hi! Nice to meet you!
Dawn: You too. You must be really strong to have become regional champion at such a young age… we'll have to test our abilities someday.
Hilda: Sure. I'm not as strong as everyone thinks I am, but you bet! I look forward to the challenge.
Professor Juniper: Even so, my daughter is quite the force to be reckoned with.
Hilda: Mum, knock it off!
(On the other side of the stage, Giratina is chatting with Victini.)
Victini: So, you're the one Kyurem always went on about. I never thought that I would ever have the chance to meet you; the last I heard, you were locked within the Distortion World for all eternity. He always called you father, you know… I guess that was his way of being appreciative of you completing his life where Arceus left off. Giratina, the Being of Distortion- the dark embodiment to the One's Light. Does looking at you now, also equate to be looking at Him?
Giratina: You remind me of a certain little witch I had to put up with the seven years I spent in Heaven. I wonder… could you be a relation to her? In any case, that smart little mouth of yours is beginning to get on my nerves.
Victini: I'm not scared of you, but I'm not trying to pick a fight with you either. I just wanted to see if you lived up to your reputation… to see for myself why Kyurem thought so highly of you. I can tell that all the stories ring true; even when just standing before me, I can sense that dark, ominous, and powerful evil around you… but it's not dangerous either. You may be powerful, but not threatening. Well… at least not yet.
Giratina: I'm glad we have an understanding.
Victini: Anyway, I think it's time that I clue you all in on the situation. Yes, Kyurem is our enemy and yes, he threatens the entire planet. But even with our power gathered here, we are not ready yet. There is more that you all need to know.
Dialga: It seems you already have taken charge, little one.
Victini: What do you expect? I'm Victini, the embodiment of Victory! Just follow my lead and it will be all right!
End of Scene 8.
