Cut to scene: Theater Rooftop. Enter Keldeo and Virizion.
Virizion: I find it hard to believe that you're still wandering freely within this town. After we beat you senseless again, I figured that you would have gone away hiding by now… again. I guess you just be still working for that pathetic old man as gratitude for saving you. Just how long are you going to keep up this acting charade; it's as if you enjoy pretending to be something that you're not. When it comes right down to it that's what acting basically is, am I right…?
Keldeo: What are you doing here?
Virizion: Oh, I'm just here on business. You see, one of your human allies squealed to Cobalion about this 'collective' of trainers and Beings that have assembled here. I guess it's hard to keep your mouth shut when you're on the pointed end of a blade; humans will do anything to spare their miserable lives. With this Intel, we discovered that one small group from this larger collective was stationed here in Nimbasa, and I have been sent here to keep an eye out. Cobalion and Terrakion are doing the same thing elsewhere.
Keldeo: And why are you telling me this? Wouldn't have been better to have just stayed and watched us from the shadows?
Virizion: Like that would help anything… we may not be on talking terms but that hasn't changed our ability to sense each other when nearby. You would have gone off and told your pathetic allies about me when you finally realized I was here. I know you're with them for your heart is that soft and naïve enough to think this world should be spared. Kyurem is going to cleanse this earth, don't you understand that?
Keldeo: Cleanse it… from what? All Kyurem wants is revenge for what happened to him five hundred years ago. This is about nothing more than self-gratification for the power he lost. Kyurem has become a terrible monster and you seem unable to see that! You're a fool to believe that he wants to cleanse this earth, when there is nothing to cleanse it from! Or perhaps that's what you tell yourself at night to feel better about your position…
Virizion (Pulling out her sword): Shut up! You don't have the right say such things to me! Just when did you become so confident?
Keldeo (Growing defiant): I should be honest with you Virizion: it is only Cobalion that I fear. He is slowly becoming like Kyurem and you and Terrakion are enabling that. You two just follow him around as if it is some kind of duty of yours to watch over him… but the truth is you're afraid of him as well. (He pulls out his sword.) As for you and Terrakion, I have no qualms in fighting you; together you may be strong as well as cruel and unfair… but when you have no choice but to battle honorably one-on-one, it will be me that will rise victorious. You've become nothing but a coward and I can defeat you anytime and anywhere!
(With battle cries, Keldeo and Virizion leap at each other and start clashing with their swords. After a minute, a Shadow Ball strikes Virizion, halting the battle.)
Giratina (O.S.): Looks like Dawn and I came at the right time.
(Enter Dawn and Giratina.)
Keldeo: Sir Giratina! Madame Dawn!
Giratina: Who is this woman? I have never seen her before, and yet the two of you fight with an equal standing. That could only mean one thing…
Keldeo: Yes, she is a Being just like we are. She is my sister, an ally of Kyurem's come to spy on us.
Dawn: And I'm afraid they might have found Diancie and Hoopa. And Xerneas is here too. They might have found her too.
Giratina: Is that so?
(Giratina begins to stomp towards Virizion. He turns to Dawn and Keldeo.)
Giratina: Dawn, take Keldeo and run! I'll hold this demon off.
Dawn: Keldeo, let's go!
(Exit Dawn and Keldeo.)
Giratina: How bold of you to show yourself to your enemies like this… and yet so foolish. If your assignment was one of undercover reconnaissance, then I cannot help but question Kyurem's choice in spies. You must be the dumbest Being I have seen by far.
(Giratina raises his arm and chokes Virizion telekinetically. She grabs her neck.)
Giratina: Now listen here, you insignificant speck! Watch over us as much as you like, for nothing you, Kyurem for your little friends do will help you so long as I roam this earth! You're all nothing compared to me! Now, if I even catch a single glimpse of you again… what I'll do next will be worse than what you're presently suffering. Understand?!
(Giratina releases Virizion from his grip as she falls to the floor, gasping for air. When she catches her breath, Virizion runs off. Keldeo enters.)
Giratina: Are you ok? You believe I was too cruel, am I right? Arrogant opponents such as her deserve nothing less. She may as well been nothing more but some stupid human punk looking for a fight, rather than a divine Being who should have known better. She had it coming.
Keldeo: I realize that, but-
Giratina: -Enough. Now I understand why you're always running away. It is not your fault for the path they chose. The past cannot be changed, so you may as well get over it and move on. You have shown a glimpse of your strength and courage to me for that single moment you were fighting with her… but you're still far from being the warrior you should be. Stop acting so weak when you're clearly not. In short… toughen up.
(Exit Giratina.)
Keldeo: Maybe he's right…
(Exit Keldeo. Cut to scene: Amusement Park. Enter Hilda, Diancie, Hoopa, N, Shaymin and Victini.)
Victini: I'm sure you had quite an exhausting day, Shaymin.
Shaymin: Yeah, I sure did. What I really need is a long nap.
(The lights focus on N and Hilda.)
N (Pointing to the Ferris wheel): Hey, do you remember the time when we rode in that together?
Hilda: Yeah, I remember… But to tell you the truth, I'd rather forget it. I thought you were a nice boy… until you told me you were Team Plasma's boss. Up till then, that darn organization caused a lot of problems… for me as well as my friends. I dreamed of kicking the boss's ass and just leave him out to dry for everything he had done to us. Then I find out that the boss was nothing more than just a manipulated sheltered twerp with more social issues than you can poke a stick at.
N: Geez Hilda! You're really crazy.
Hilda: Don't be such a child, N! Hey, at least you manned up and shown some spine in the end. I'll give you credit for that. You're learning more and more each day becoming more of a man and less of the twerp you once were. I see that… And I will always be here at your side to see you through it. I'm here for you N… And I promise to never do… You- know- what.
N: Thanks Hilda.
Hilda: Unless you deserve it… Hey, I'm joking.
N: Sometimes I think you just screw around with me for the fun of it. Anyway, I was thinking that we should ride it again together. And… after telling me how you really feel about that day, I think we should ride it again more than ever. Let's erase that memory and ride it again as friends.
Hilda: Yeah, we should ride it again; we're not doing much at the moment anyway… some date this is.
N: You… you think of this as a date?
(Hilda and N hold hands. In the background, Hoopa and Diancie are talking.)
Hoopa: Diancie, suppose what would happen if Kyurem did find us?
Diancie: I'm sure he would try and make us fall for him or he would interrogate us asking who we are and where we came from.
Hoopa: Let's just stay on our guard and make sure that doesn't happen.
Diancie: Aww, looks like N and Hilda are falling in love.
Hoopa: I wonder if I'll fall in love…
(They start singing.)
Diancie: The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear are still inside my head. The kindest words I'll ever know are waiting to be said. The most entrancing sight of all…
Diancie and Hoopa: Is yet for me to see…
Hoopa: And the dearest love in all the world is waiting somewhere for me…
Diancie: Is waiting somewhere… Somewhere for me.
(The lights focus on Shaymin and Victini. Shaymin is trying to prevent Victini from having a fit.)
Shaymin: Victini, calm down.
Victini: I want at him!
Shaymin: Victini…
Victini: Let me at him!
Shaymin: Calm down now.
Victini: I'm telling you that was a rip-off! A rip-off I said!
(We are focused back on Diancie and Hoopa. Hoopa sings.)
Hoopa: The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear are still inside my head. The kindest words I'll ever know are waiting to be said. The most entrancing sight of all…
Diancie and Hoopa: Is yet for me to see…
Diancie: And the dearest love in all the world is waiting somewhere for me… Is waiting somewhere… Somewhere for me.
Hoopa: The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear… (Diancie: The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear)
Diancie: Are still inside my head. The kindest words I'll ever know… (Hoopa: The kindest words I'll ever know)
Hoopa: Are waiting to be said. The most entrancing sight of all (Diancie (echoing): The most entrancing sight of all)
Diancie and Hoopa: Is yet for me to see… And the dearest love in all the world…
Hoopa: Is waiting somewhere… (Diancie: Waiting somewhere…)
Diancie and Hoopa: For me…
(They sob and hug each other before pulling away and heading off to the side. We are again focused on N and Hilda.)
Hilda: N, you okay?
N (Getting sick): No, not really… I think there was something in that corndog that's not sitting well with me. Sorry, I need to go!
Hilda: Head back to the hotel, after you're done, okay? We can't have you walking around in your condition! I'll see you later!
(Exit N. Enter Zekrom from stage left and Young Kyurem from stage right.)
Zekrom: Sorry, Hilda. I was in the bathroom for a while. Too many people here.
Young Kyurem: Well that ruined it. What a loser! I guess he couldn't handle your womanly charms.
(Hilda and Zekrom turn around as Diancie and Hoopa join them.)
Young Kyurem: You must be quite the knockout… if you can make boys so sick with love that they just 'hurl' their affection at you!
Diancie: It's that boy from the Castelia Hotel!
Hilda: Shut up, you creepy kid! And what are you doing here anyway… you following me or something?
Young Kyurem: Didn't I say we would meet again? However this time is of random occurrence, I assure you. I heard there was an interesting production going on here. I decided to have a look-see when I ran into you guys. You, Miss Pink Princess, I remember you from the Castelia Hotel. But that girl in the pink and purple, I've never seen you before.
Hoopa: Are you talking about the play about Sir Huge?
Young Kyurem: That's the one. I have been involved in his story for quite a long time, so it will be amusing to see a dramatic representation about his life.
Hilda: Involved in his story… Are you an aspiring historian or something?
Young Kyurem: Hmm… A historian… Now that is a good way to describe it; I have been part of history for a very long time, after all…
Hilda: I don't like the way you said that, kid.
Young Kyurem: You never like what I have to say anyway. So, I take it you and your sister are alone with Miss Pink Princess and Pretty in Purple now since your date has succumbed to a weak stomach. In that case, why not we stay a while and get to know each other? The night is still young and it would be a shame to waste it… and perhaps after spending some time with me you'll find that I'm not all that weird and creepy as I seem. How about it…?
Hilda: Sure kid; it's not like I'm doing anything else tonight…
Young Kyurem: Great! Why don't we start by riding that Ferris wheel together? That's where you were going to go next anyway…
Hilda: Sure, why not… it'll be like riding with Hilbert.
Diancie: How about sis and I take a pod and you three take another?
Zekrom: Good idea.
(Hilda, Zekrom, Diancie, Hoopa and Young Kyurem ride the Ferris wheel.)
Young Kyurem: This is so amazing! It's like I'm flying without the need for wings. It's incredible!
Hilda: I take it this is your first time riding something like this?
Young Kyurem: It is. I always thought that riding this thing would be complete waste of time. Ever since its construction there have been many instances for me to just give it a try, however refused due to my ideals. Perhaps sharing this moment with two others makes a whole lot of difference… together within this pod, flying as if we were one entity. It's quite the experience, don't you agree?
Zekrom: I guess I can agree. What about you, sis?
Hilda: Well when you put it that way, it does sound rather awesome. I never really thought of it that way until now… you're quite the poet, kid.
Young Kyurem: So… have you thought about what we discussed the last time we met? Of how I warned you about going on this adventure… It seems you have not taken my warning seriously. You still have time to turn back…
Hilda: Humph! You're still going on about that? I thought I made it clear last time. I am not afraid of what awaits at the end of this journey. I am not just someone that can easily be frightened by threatening words and spooky stories. I'm built more solid than I look; kid; my mother and father raised no coward!
Zekrom: You said it, sister!
Hilda: And I have something to say to you. You make it sound as if you know exactly what I'm doing. You should know as far as I'm concerned; I hardly even know you! You know something and I want to know how! Just who or what are you?
Young Kyurem: As I said before, I'm just a fan… that's all I am.
Hilda: Whatever, kid. In any case my decision still stands: I will not back down, I will not give up till it's over, and I will fight to the end. You have my word on that.
(Hilda, Zekrom, Young Kyurem, Diancie and Hoopa get off the Ferris wheel.)
Young Kyurem: It seems you still need more convincing. I haven't given up on you yet. We will meet again warrior princess… and next time it will not be by random chance.
(Exit Young Kyurem.)
Hoopa: I'm starting to get really suspicious now. Diancie, did you say you and Hilda ran into this kid at the Castelia Hotel?
Diancie: Yes. That same time before he said something about stopping our adventure. Just who is he?
Hoopa: He must be hiding something.
Hilda: What a crappy end to a crappy day…
(Exit Hilda, Zekrom, Diancie and Hoopa. Cut to scene: Dawn and Giratina's Hotel Room. Enter Dawn and Giratina.)
Giratina (In his North King voice): How can you ignore such form of perfection, when it is right before your eyes longing for your loving gaze, my princess? Forget about your pain and only look at me. Only smile at me. Swear your love and allegiance to me, and you will never know suffering again.
Dawn: You're becoming a natural at this acting thing. I never thought that you would get so into it like this.
Giratina: It is a gift I never realized I had, but enough about that. You're troubled. What's wrong?
Dawn (Steadily growing worried): I'm just becoming rather worried about all this. Kyurem has hardly shown himself and yet we've been working so hard against him. Well… we haven't done much since we're stuck here for now, but I know the others have been working hard. It's as if he doesn't care about us… that all our efforts don't mean squat to him. It like he's mocking us.
Giratina: Don't be fooled by his lack of physical involvement. While Kyurem has remained assumedly hidden, his little minions have been running around doing all his dirty work. In fact, I had to go out of my way to put one of his spies in their place this afternoon.
Dawn: Yeah, I heard about that. It's never wise to praise the enemy, Gira-kun. And I thought you hated the idea of being his father.
Giratina: I was only teasing, my dear Dawn. Still… if he is anything like I was, he will only appear before us when necessary… more so when it spires to amuse him.
Dawn (Mocking Kyurem): Like father like son.
Giratina (Pulling Dawn into his arms): My dear Dawn, you shouldn't worry yourself with meaningless concerns. Kyurem is no threat whilst I remain within this world. Even if he does reach his complete form his power is nothing compared to mine. He is nothing but a fallen monster drowning within his own insanity. As long as I am here at your side, you have nothing to fear.
Dawn: So… What does that make you? Kyurem is a fallen Being just like you. Doesn't that make you a monster too?
Giratina: Do you not understand, yet…? I am the darkness to my father's holy light – violence personified. From the day I was born… I was always a monster.
Dawn: Well… for a monster you act more like an angel. A guardian watching over and protecting us – over everyone you hold dear to your heart. You're more than a monster Giratina… and one day you will eventually see that as well.
Giratina: Perhaps you are right, may dear Dawn. But for now… while on this path towards war… it is a monster that you will need.
(They kiss as the stage lights go out.)
