In the throne room waited the shady steel/fairy type for his king.
No one could suspect anything about this meeting. The majestic lion figure approached at the Mawile, "Here I am."
"Sire! We found the location of the crown."
"Perfect!" the king snarled with a grin.
"However... the place is sealed. We need the plates from the elemental temples. Due to their guards and their role in the society, we won't gain them with regular forces," told the Mawile.
"So I propose to summon a demon and bind it to your command"
"Sounds reasonable. Call the wizard Noresco the Alakazam, he's the only one able to call demons and other evil creatures," the King ordered. "He will call the worst demon known in Hell, and controlling it, the people will be forced to give up and give me those magical artifacts."
"I already spoke with him," admitted the Mawile. "And he told me the demon which would be the best, needs a host to fill during the summon... a host which is blood related to the master." He cleared his throat, "Either the host is already prepared but it takes two months for the demon to adjust. Or the future master forces a virgin to accept his seed, creating a host during the summon. The demon would be born within a week and ready within a month."
The King brushed his beard with his fingers, thinking on which option would be better.
The Mawile watched his king, wondering to which option he would relate. After all it's either one of his children will be possessed or a female raped by him will lose her free will.
"I think we can wait until the demon grows by itself. I don't want to waste more time in searching for a virgin, even with lies. Noresco will call and tame this demon, a creature half demon and half Pokémon is too weak."
"It wouldn't be half Pokemon mylord." he replied. "So who should be the host for the demon?"
"I don't trust it anyway. Noresco will offer one of his relatives for the demon, we'll pay him copiously if herefuses."
"I will contact him immediatly," he replied and moved to talk with Noresco.
"Tell him to be ready for tomorrow at dawn."
"Not the next full moon?" he asked. "It would strengthen the demon."
"Maybe we'll have to deal with him, if he won't offer willingly a related for the demon," the King explained.
The Mawile bowed and told, "As you wish mylord," and retreated to meet with the Alakazam.
The wizard lived in a shed not far away from the castle, all alone, always surrounded by magic books and potions and weird things. He was the alchemist of the kingdom, for a price he'll make anything you wanna, from a love potion to a imperceptible poison.
"Noresco... we have a job for you," told the Mawile as he came into the house of the wizard. He was actually focused on a book and didn't seem to notice the individual entering.
"Wizard Noresco!" shouted the Mawile.
He slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of milky white eyes, his face signed by the years of life, his mustache shading from gold to white, he didn't speak.
"The King wants the demon, with one of your relatives used as host," told the Mawile.
Swirling his right clawed hand, a purple dust flew towards a parchment and a inkwell.
Moving on his table magically the pen took the ink and wrote on the sheet. After a minute, the parchment flew towards the Mawile. 'I don't have relatives anymore' was written.
"Then come to the palace in the morning. We are clearing it with the King," answered the Mawile, not fazed by the reply.
He took back the parchment, signing the previous message with a line, and writing again.
"Alright. I'll come at the dawn."
"Until tomorrow," told the Mawile and went to return to his king. The wizard nodded and focused back on his book.
Back by the queen, princess and mercenary.
Raven picked up Soraya who had fallen asleep and carried her to her bed. "Thank you for your patience Raven," The queen said with a smile, tucking the sheets over her little girl.
"It is not a problem," he replied and looked at the sleeping child, before looking to the queen.
"Now you deserve a good rest," Palette smiled.
Raven nods in agreement to her and couldn't help but stroke her queen jolted her head towards him, shivering slightly, surprised but also appreciating the gesture.
While gazing at her, he didn't adept atempt any kind of apologize... he just thought she was very beautiful and deserved attention. The look on his face told it and he took her hand.
She wasn't sure of his intentions, but she didn't rebel, and took his hand too, feeling he was a better man than hers. Slowly he pulled her into an embrance and held her close, wanting to have her close.
She blushed as her arms wrapped around him.
Raven blushed as well and just kept her close, rubbing her back gently, unintentionally making her realize what he feels for her, though they only met that day.
Instinctively she purred in his neck fur, she started to have desire of him, her husband stopped since few years to please their lust, like he'd lost it. But she had still lust in her fibers.
He began to kiss her neck while feeling her body, losing his fear of what might happen if she disapproves this or them getting caught... just wanting to give her the attention she deserved.
Her cheeks flushed with a tint of red, as her right leg slowly raised to wrap around his waist.
As reaction he held her back to support her while kissing the lips and feeling her butt with the free hand.
She didn't hesitate a second more, kissing him back as her hands gripped around his shoulders.
"Not in my room, the King shall be asleep already," she whispered in his ear, going straight at the main part.
"Then where do you want it?" he whispered back, resisting the urge to do it right in the room of her daughter.
"Your room is perfect," she whispered again, slightly clawing his fur and clothes.
He smirks and told while scratching her back, "Then let's go... but not too close in case we run into a guard."
"Deal," she said kissing him fiercely once again with him returning before letting slowly go and began to retreat to his room. She followed him holding his hand tightly, not wanting to miss this chance.
They had to hide a few minutes to not run into guards and eventually reached his room. Once they were inside, Raven closed up the door. He went to her and began to pull on her clothes to take them off her body.
She folded and stretched her limbs to help him to get rid off her clothes. When she was naked, it was her turn, and slowly she took his clothes off.
He moved his body so she has it easy to get them off and once he was nude as well, he pulled her close and kissed her lips while slowly moving to the bed.
She clung her arms around his neck tightly, her head leaning on his shoulder as she finally found herself on the bed.
He nibbles her neck, preparing her body for the coming event, causing her to blush red.
Only a small fraction of his mind registrated that once they started here there was no going back... they would be in a secret which many would consider sinful... but Raven didn't mind it. He wanted this secret love. He wanted to be the queen's lover, to give her all the attention she wanted from him. He wanted to be a good male for her and a good father to her daughter and any child the two would make.
"I'm all yours, my faithful guardian," the queen whispered as her body heated due to her fire type, aware that she was betraying her king, her children and her kingdom, but she didn't care at all. A royal affair tantalized her like wine for a fly. If she would carry a bastard kid, she'd leave with an excuse and deliver this creature and raise it to challenge her son, the future king, and call the kingdom its own, she would be happy of this...
But for now she just enjoyed this affair.
Raven complied to her whisper and began with her to betray the so called King of a Luxray.
He mated her and fulfilled her needs.
Raven panted loudly after their good time and he smiled while gazing at her. For him it was the best moment of his life and he planed to stay with her as long it was possible.
Palette's breathes were short hot gasps, her body shivering in fulfilled lust. She looked into his eyes smiling too, happy of her session, she missed it since a lot.
Raven held her and kissed her lips before whispering, "I love you... Palette."
Her eyes widened in shock. She didn't love him, she just thought he would be a fairer and kind ruler and father, but he wasn't the man for her, she didn't love her king either anymore. In her years of youth, her life taught her that men were better out of one's life.
He saw her shock and sighed, realizing that it was an one sided love. However he made up his mind. He will be loyal to her, giving her his love even if she returns it to him.
She gave him a fake smile, as her claws whirled in his neck fur, "It was amazing..."
"I agree," he replied and kissed her neck. She let him caress her body for a while before whispering, "Now I should really go, before the king gets suspicious..."
"Alright," he replied and got off and got her clothes to help her dress up. While helping her, he told, "Even if you don't return my feelings... you should know that I will be at your side if you need help."
"That's good to hear," Palette said dressing her clothes up.
He guided her to the door and told, "Until tomorrow."
"Until tomorrow," the queen replied with a bow, before heading towards her bedroom.
Raven closed the door and decided to prepare for the case she is expecting a child from him and has to leave the palace to hide... he grabed a parchment and began to write a letter for somebody he trusted.
The queen couldn't sleep that night, she was afraid to carry a bastard, in her mind she was planning an escape plan, to leave until she gave birth without giving any suspects to the king.
On the next morning the Mawile was waiting with the Alakazam for king Amadeus, who woke up early that day, a servant served him a quick breakfast knowing about his meeting.
Dressed up in his formal clothes and with his family still asleep, he walked until the main hall.
"Ah Noresco, what a pleasure to see you."
The Alakazam bows and the Mawile spoke for him, "Your Majesty! I talked with him yesterday. Uncomfortably he cannot use any relatives for the summoning... because he lacks them."
Amadeus groaned swaying his fist in the air, "Damn! Then we have to claim a virgin, but where could we have her without suspects?"
"Well... we could still get a slave trader," the Mawile replied. "And I have some... contacts who could get the slave into the place using the catacombs."
"But you sure he trades virgin slaves?"
"He has to since I own his live."
"Ahhh, smart Mawile you are," Amadeus smirked. "Well then, lead us to this slave trader when you can."
Bowing in front of his king, the steel/fairy type replied, "I will call him immediately."
"Great!"
The Mawile left and came soon back with a Nidoking, who pulled a female Umbreon with him, "Ahhh such a night beauty," the king smirked grabbing her face. "Young, beautiful, looking healthy, she looks the perfect one."
She snarles at the king and the Mawile replied, "She is from the night clan high in the north... this clan has been refusing your reign for years so it would be very ironic to force one of them to bear the demon for you... who will steal the plate from them afterwards"
The king laughed, "Oh yeah the irony. Well Noresco, here's your bearer. Do your magic."
He bowed and prepared a magical circle and had the umbreon tied on an altar summoned to the ritual.
The Mawile explained, "The first part of the summon is done mylord... for the second part, the master of the demon must now rape the future mother of the host... he suggest you do the honor so you can trust that nobody would turn the demon against you... it will follow you until death. Then it is your soul's decision to banish it, let it rampage or give it a new master."
The Umrbeon was trying to get free but the magical shackles bounded her.
"With great pleasure," Amadeus grinned, as his claw slowly ran on the female's chest, his other hand already taking his clothes off.
In the meantime the Queen woke up, hearing weird voices and sounds. She silently stood on her feet and followed the sounds.
And she found her husband raping an Umbreon while the Alakazam was continuing the summoning and she could see the essence of the demon flowing from the king to the womb of the dark type while the Mawile laughed, "Yes Your Majesty! With the demon, nobody will stop your claim of the Crown of Arceus! You will be the god for all of us!"
With a last thrust, the King released until the last his seed into the female, growling as he caught his breathe back. When he released the poor girl, the wizard swing his magical stick and the ritual signs disappeared, dropping the Umbeon on the ground.
"Now my lady... you'll have a great honor... after you'll deliver this creature," the king said dressing up.
She whimpered but suddenly a magical symbol appears on her forehead, getting on the knees and told, "Yes master..."
"Part of this variation of the summon allows you to keep the 'mother' as eternal slave. If the demon is slaughtered for some reason, she will give birth to it once again after you mate her once more," explained the Mawile. "Her mind is completely replaced with the sole wish to serve the current master of the demon."
Also Noresco bowed and prepared to leave.
"Perfect. Wait here, I'll tell the servants to prepare you a room," Amadeus said. "And Noresco, you can go."
The queen was speechless, scared and angry at the same time.
The psycho type bowed and left while the Mawile questioned, "Sire... how to explain the presence of this girl in the palace if somebody asks?"
"Well she'll be the new dancer," the king said.
"And the unnatural pregnancy?"
"When she'll give birth we'll be sure that she'll be out from here. In the meantime we'll say she got pregnant before arriving here."
"Yes sire!" he bowed and retreated.
In the meanwhile Raven was looking for Sebastian. The whole castle was awake now, servants serving breakfasts at the royal family and guardian's dining room, where Sebastian was with his fellows.
"Sebastian... can I ask you a favor?"
"What do you want?" Sebastian asked.
"I have two letters to be delivered... it is enough if you bring them to the innkeeper Boris. He knows to where the letters must go," explained Raven. "I left a few things unattended as I got called and last night... there was something that lets me want to take a few preparations set by a few friends."
He didn't lie since he got a feeling that lying to this guy would be bad but he didn't tell the entire truth either.
"And why? What happened? If I can ask," Sebastian asked analyzing the two letters.
The letters were written in a code only mercenaries were taught to read and Raven only told "Something... unexpected. I prefer to keep it for myself."
Sebastian nodded, "Where this innkeeper Boris?"
"He is the Innkeeper of the Slashing Fang in the town where you met me."
"Ok. As soon as I finish, I'll go."
"Thank you! I owe you one," he replied and went to breakfast
Sebastian raised an eyebrow confused about how it could be important. But he just shrugged and went back to his breakfast.
Raven talked with a few people while eating his breakfast until he heard somebody running and he turned to the source.
The running one was the Medicham, who rushed outside the room.
"What's up with him?" he asked while sipping some tea he got for his breakfast.
"He has the habit to run at morning," the Ursaring said.
"I see!" told Raven and finished his breakfast before standing up.
"Hey guys I heard there's a new dancer in the castle," someone said.
Raven looks remotely over but wasn't really interested. Instead he moved to meet up with his duties. In a corridor, the prince and the princess walked with their parents, Ramon headed to a room with Amadeus, while Soraya and Palette walked by Raven.
"Morning!" told Raven with a smile.
"Morning!" both the ladies said.
"Ready for the day?"
"Sure! Today Mother and I will have a stroll in the kingdom," Soraya said.
"Want to accompany us?" Palette asked.
"Sure! Where we are going?"
"In the town."
"Then let me get my stuff first. Then I can come with you."
"Okay."
Raven got his weapons and came back, "We can go"
The little Soraya took both the adults hands smiling and they walked out through the gardens.
Palette glanced now and then at the pokémon next to her daughter.
Raven seems to be enjoying to be around the two, not noticing her look.
The little girl giggled happily as she suddenly rushed on the grass, seeing some flowers and picking them up.
"Raven, I have to tell you something."
"What is it?" asked Raven, turning to her.
"Today at the dawn, I saw Amadeus and the wizard Noresco, and the king was raping an Umbreon prisoned into a magical circle, and a Mawile talked about the Crown of Arceus."
"Crown of Arceus?" Raven asked. "I fear I don't know anything about it... though it doesn't surprise me that the king was raping woman her... though when a wizard is involved, I take this wasn't a simple rape."
"Indeed," the queen said with a sad look, being careful that Soraya didn't approach. "Reading books in the library, I read that this Crown of Arceus changes the owner into a God, immortal and with limitless powers. But there's need of several magical plates to bring in a temple, before to own the crown. And I read also about a demon, but I don't remember why..."
"If we could go to Apara, we could ask a friend of mine... the Shaman Dozo," told Raven. "Though it is a three days trip."
"I see. But first I need you to recruit a small but faithful team of guardians. I fear there'll be a fight soon, very soon..."
"I don't know all of the guardians yet so I cannot help in building a team. I could only recommend a few outside help if the guardians lack any candidates for certain fields... Dozo will be for sure one of them since we need an expert on demons and legends who isn't working for the king."
"Mhm. Ok then, if you have among your mercenary friends someone you can fully trust, then call them. I have few names in mind already, in my friends list."
"I know a few but since they are all mercenaries, they will all want a payment," warned Raven.
"They will have. At the end of this disaster."
"I have three candidates... one is an archer named Simon, a mage named Eve and a brawler called Larl."
"No offense, but leave Larl behind. I don't know what could happen, and we better to act in the shadow."
"I prepare a letter for them. Should they come to Apara and wait for us?" asked Raven, looking how the princess was doing.
"Yes. And write them to think over this very wisely, because there's no coming back, and they may lose their life. But anyway... the reward will be quite wealthy," the queen finished, looking towards her daughter.
"I understand," told Raven and had a smile at the joy of the little Shinx. "About last night... I sent a letter to somebody who would give you cover if you ever need one. I only told that you might need it, not the specific reason..."
Palette looked at him with a smile, "Thank you very much. But I prepared too a letter, for my sister, who rules a nearby kingdom. I told her to give me hospitality, and if the king asked why, she had to say that I wanted to spend some time with her. She's my dearest related, the only one I really love I can say."
"I see," told Raven and admits. "It may sound foolish... but I hope here is still a place for me in your heart..."
The queen smiled and kissed his cheek, "You will always have a special place in my heart Raven. Maybe you won't be my lover, but you'll be the dearest Pokémon I met. Try to understand my position, what will be of my children, my daughter? What will the people think? Everyone will call treason, and I may be killed. And I can't leave this kingdom in the paws of a ill mind like my husband..."
Raven blushed and nodded, "I understand."
He made a quick glance to make sure nobody was watching them and kissed her in return before offering, "How about we go and join her? I bet she is eager to know what I can do with my claw and a piece of wood."
"I'm sure she'd love to see you crafting," the queen replied as she took his hand walking towards Soraya. "My dear, Raven has an interesting activity to propose you."
"Oh mother! I prepared you a flower crown!" Soraya exclaimed as she shown a little crown with interleaved flowers.
Raven looked at the crown and whistled, "Wow! This is a beautiful one."
"Thank you Raven. I can make you one if you wanna."
"First of all I want to make something for you," Raven said smiling and cut from a nearby dead tree some wood off and cut it to a cube. Then he sat down in front of her and began to cut the wood with his metal claws, forming slowly a figure Soraya cooed as she sat in front of him, looking carefully at his incoming creation. The queen too sat next to her daughter. Slowly a little wood figure which looked like a mother was formed with her daughter in her arms.
Once it seems he was finished, he made a final look over it and a few careful cuts and then he held it to Soraya "What do you think?"
Both the queen and the princess gasped in surprise. But Soraya couldn't hold back her tears of happiness, that little statue were the spitting copy of her and her mother.
"Once something to preserve it is added, you can have this little statue" smiles Raven "And I can make you another one as well if you want. Just tell me who it should resemble."
The little princess jumped on her feet and crashed Raven in a hug.
"Carefull," laughed Raven as he put the figure down and hugs her as well. "You nearly broke it! But I am glad you like it"
"S-Sorry... but no one ever did something so sweet for me or my mother..." Soraya then sniffed, nearly crying in happiness.
He smiles and told, "Then let the happiness out," while holding her close.
"I-I can't... it's not allowed to a princess to cry. That's what Dad always tell me."
"Who would watch you here?" Raven asked while stroking her cheek. "Here are only you, me and your mother... and none of us would say a single thing. It isn't good to hide your feelings. This will only hurt you."
"Father always say that to rule a kingdom, a ruler has to hide his true feelings, and think only at the kingdom..."
"Sometimes showing your feeling helps ruling the kingdom... I was once working for a king who had to avoid a crises. One of the generals suggested to just burn down a town, no matter who would be hurt in this process. The king refused it, visible angered at this suggestion. All who were in this outburst of his feelings, were encouraged to do their best to repell the crises
and they did it."
"Really? Father says that his kingdom is the best in the world, because his heart is cold like ice, and his mind think and run like a mad Rapidash... I don't know what it means, but brother follows it, and he looks to be successful too..."
"What kingdom is successful if its people dislike their ruler? While on some points he might be right, many are suffering because of his ice cold ruling... the one I see being very successful hold a delicate balance of being kind and strict. Kind in the sense that the ruler listens to the people and their needs but also strict if the need arises."
Soraya looked down, her mind blowing with thoughts, everything she learnt until now looked collapse under Raven's words. But he was just a guardian, and he was in charge only since a day. Although... he was smart, kind, the kind of ruler she always dreamed to be her future husband. But she was so confused now.
Raven sat in front of her, guessing what was going on in her little head. He stroke her gently and told, "I know it is hard to understand for you... just let it settle down a bit and then you can try to make your own opinion, ok?"
Soraya nodded and stood up, looking at the little wooden statue and then taking it, "Thank you very much for your little crafting Raven. I really appreciate it."
"You're welcome," he smiled to her. "If you want I can craft you something else. Just ask."
Soraya smiles nodding.
"So, you still wanna have that walk in town, Soraya?" Palette asked, after her long silence.
"Yes mother."
"How about we bring this little statue first into a good place so it won't break during the walk?" offered Raven.
"Good idea." Soraya said and rushed back in the castle.
"Why you said those things Raven?" Palette asked, in a scolding tone.
"To give her an alternative to think about. And there is still the option of getting ignored since I am only a guardian."
Palette sighed glancing away. She wanted to say so much, but words were like glued in her brain, without escape to her mouth.
"I am sorry if I told something she should have never heard but personally I prefer a ruler that shows emotion than an ice cold one... and I cannot stand if a child is forced to hold back tears. No matter if they are tears of sadness or joy."
"No. Actually you did what I've not been able to do since she was born. But children don't know what's right or wrong to say from what they hear. They follow their heart, not their mind, and this unfortunately may cause troubles..."
"That's why I also said she should let it settle down first and think about it later. There will be a time when she thinks about with her mind and heart," Raven told and looked up. "Though I have to admit... I didn't think about this since I never dealt with children very much before I met you."
Before the queen could reply, the princess was back already, "I'm ready to go, Mother."
"Then better we go now" Raven smiled and stood up.
Soraya took both adults' hands ready to go, and Palette led the way first.
"I wonder if we'll meet some faces I know. I had a few jobs there."
"Are they active in the town?" Palette asked.
"Who knows. It is hard to keep in touch with each other when traveling around a lot and working for anybody with the right amount of money."
"I'm sure someone will show up," Palette replied with a smile.
Just as she said this, an ice spell hit Raven's metal arm and froze it.
After raising his frozen arm and looking at the ice, he told "Haha! Very funny Eve!"
"Oh... did the little Raven dislike ice?" told a female voice and a figure in coat with a floating staff came into the view. It looks like the coat was only to hide the species of the magic user since no feet were seen on the ground
The queen and the princess jumped in surprise, the little kid hide behind the mother's dress, shivering still.
"Sorry for startling you," told Eve and touched the frozen arm with her staff, making the ice shatter.
Then she hit the ground slightly and a cup of ice cream appeared, "Ice cream?"
"I see you still prefer ice spells," Raven told and Eve countered, "Why shouldn't I? But now tell me! How did you end up walking around with the Queen and the Princess?"
The queen snarled and then roared, from her throat coming a Flamethrower that melted the ice-cream as her teeth still glimpsed with flames, "Don't you dare to come any closer, witch!"
The chaos called the people attention, that came to see creating a circle around the mons.
"Hey, hey! I am not harming anybody! I just made a little fun with my friend Raven here."
"That's true. She likes to play pranks involved with ice spells. And always makes sure no harm is done."
"Geez!" sighed Eve. "I should really stop with my pranks when fire types are around... they get angered too easy... and by the way: I am not a witch! I am a professional magician."
The queen scoffed and turned back to her daughter. "Don't worry, she's not a danger, for now."
The little princess slowly made her way from behind her mother, showing a little, "You're not bad... are you?" she asked.
She moves down to her, and thought for a moment "Not more bad than Raven over here... except you consider little pranks as bad..."
Then she produced again ice cream and offers them as a peace treaty, "Ice cream?"
"They are good," Raven told. "And she only offers them to friends or when she wants to say sorry."
Soraya looked up at her mother, who nodded in agree. So the little one approached to grabbed the ice-cream and taste it. "It's good!" the kid said smiling and began to eat it.
"I am glad!" murrs Even and raises up. "Sorry for startling! I was sure that Raven had warned ya about my habits."
"For that I had to know you are here. Last time we saw you was hired to freeze a dragon."
"Oh yeah! Never came to tell you that my job after the dragon was to come here and produce some ice blocks until the regular ice mage recovered... had my last day today."
"Good news," the queen hastily said. "Ice-type magicians are dangerous, even if I'm a fire type."
"I am a psychic type," Eve chuckled. "Just love to use ice spells."
"I think it is easier to explain if we go somewhere where nobody would listen to us... Eve has a reason to hide her face."
"Oh great, someone who has to hide? Good friends you have Raven."
"Not my fault! Or Raven's! But people tend to panic when they see my face," told the magician. "Last time I showed it in public, they wanted to throw me into a volcano."
"And they had to do it!" Palette snarled.
The people around in the meantime began to cheer about Eve's execution.
"A witch is always a danger!" said one.
"Scum must be removed from our kingdom!" another cried.
"You cannot just judge somebody who has problem with her looks and has her talents," told Raven, defending his friend. "She is a kind soul! Only downside is her habits for pranks in this matter."
"Its fine Raven... I wanted to leave this town anyway. And if you really want to see my face: Be warned!"
Then she slowly removed the hood, revealing she was a Mesprit with a black top, a red eye and her right half of the face covered by a steel plate with a glass eye in her eye socked which bears a magical sign. "Here you have it! I am a golem created by metal and the body of a dead legendary! I refused to serve a master who only had mass killing and mass producing of my kind in mind! I never broke a single law in this kingdom! All I did was working as mercenary to earn a living! Do you still wish to execute me for my mere existence?"
The whole square gasped in disgust and repel, the queen pointed at the Mesprit and roared.
"DEATH TO HER!"
There the chaos burst. Every pokémon nearby assaulted the psychic type with tools or their own moves, weaking her at their best.
Soraya dropped the last ice cream she had in her paws, horrified by the scene. She couldn't help but run away, from that Pyroar who wasn't her cherish mother...
Suddenly all Pokemons flew away by a shockwave caused by the Mesprite and a Fire Pillar shoots out of the ground. Once it was gone, the Mesprite was gone as well.
Raven only shock his head and told her, "You want to be better than your husband? Then think about what you just did..." running after Soraya
The queen looked at the leavings of her order, but suddenly her eyes went dark and passed out.
