(Heya! New chapter up, so new disclaimer! Yo, Emo-chicken!

-grabs Sasuke-

Read the disclaimer.

Sasuke: Ari don't owns no pokemon.

Me: WTF? Worst. Grammer. EVAH.

Sasuke: I'm too busy trying to kill my brother to, you know, care.

Me: ...And that's why I hate you so much.

"Well, with your gift, I wouldn't exactly be surprised… There must be so many people who would kill to get it, right?" Luna stopped in her tracks. "No." She clawed at her hair, and dropped to her knees.

"No!" "Luna!" "They… I… Oh god, Ezlyri…" Salem knelt down. "Luna, what happened?" Azrael and Feraia knelt at her side, as she explained to everyone else. "I… since I can talk to pokemon, they kidnapped me. I was experimented on, which gave me these." She muttered, "I wish for wings, I wish for a tail," and her gifts appeared.

"…Holy…" Salem muttered. "And…" She hesitated. "They were gonna kill me, when this voice came out of nowhere. It said they couldn't hurt me, and then the place blew up." Everyone was stunned. "Luna…" Cybela whispered. "Wow." Nyeros said. "So you do know what it's like." Merope murmured.

Luna nodded, then said, "I wish you away." The wings and tail disappeared. "And they had Fera as an experiment, so that's why she looks like that." Feraia nodded. "Wow. Who kidnapped you?" Luna shook her head. "Dunno. A man with long white hair." Salem gasped.

"Was he wearing blue?" Luna nodded. "That man was Kingston Skygo! He runs Skygo Corporations, Luna!" Luna was shocked. "What do they do?" "They make everything humans need to destroy the earth. Concrete, plastic, glass, pollution, it destroys the planet, they manufacture it." Luna sighed. "Lovely." She shook her head.

"Anyway, the sun's gone down. Let's go back to Professor Monarch's house." They followed Luna back to the lab. Feraia saw she was worried, and nipped her hand gently. "It's gonna be okay, squirt." Luna sighed. "I guess…" Luna knocked on the door. Prof. Monarch opened it. "Hello, Luna. Oh, you've brought the boy. Come in, will you?"

They followed her in. "Luna, there is one legend I have been studying since I was a small child. It concerns the first pokemon." Luna nodded, and said, "You've got it?" Prof. Monarch nodded. "Yes, I do. Hang on, we'll eat while we talk." She sat in a small, cluttered kitchen, and set some drinks and a box of bento at every place setting. "Alright, well, here we go!" She set a gigantic book entitled, "Myths and Magic Of Pokemon." She opened to the first page. "I'll read it out loud, so just listen."

"In the beginning, there was nothing. Then there was Arcerus. He was the Great Creator. But when he tried to create, his creations were without soul. So he formed something out of the chaos, and called it Mew.

Mew had the power to bring life to Arcerus' creations. They made three birds; one of Fire, Moltres, one of Lightning, Zapdos, and one of Ice, Articuno. These three immediately clashed with each other, which became the first battle between pokemon.

They fought for three days and three nights. Horrified, Mew was about to make them stop, when she realized that their fighting had caused the sea to be formed from Moltres' melting of Articuno's ice, and Zapdos had made the sky and clouds so he could call down thunder.

Out of these new things, Mew fashioned the Seabird, Lugia, and the Phoenix, Ho-oh. She was about to rest, until she realized that there was nothing but barren wasteland on this earth.

So Arcerus created Shaymin, and she gave her the power to create flowers and vegetation. Pleased, Mew and Arucerus created a few more pokemon; the first non-legendaries. According to fossils, some of these pokemon were: Gyrados, Magikarp, Eevee, Anorith, Lileep, Cradily, Armaldo, Aerodactyl, and Dratini, Dragonair, and Dragonite. Mew was almost satisfied, until she realized there was no time, no stars.

So she and Arcerus created Dialga and Palkia, the beings of Time and Space. They filled the sky with stars, and created time. Mew needed someone to keep the balance of time, however, so she created Celebi. Celebi kept both the balance between time, and was able to bring Mew and Arucerus' creations to life.

Mew and Arcerus, pleased, created two last things; the sun and the moon. But they gave off no light. So two brave Eevees, whose names have been lost, became the first Espeon and Umbreon. Giving the sun and moon their powers to shine, Mew and Arucerus also created Cresselia to help Umbreon, and Ho-oh was to help Espeon.

So Mew and Arucerus fell into a deep sleep. But without them, there soon was chaos. Dialga and Palkia inadvertently created a pokemon called Giratina from their essence. Giratina teleported to an ancient cemetery, where he created two beings from their graves; Regigigas and Darkrai. Regigas immediately rebelled, and from him came three minions; Regice, Regirock, and Registeel.

They ripped open a portal to the other side, and began to destroy. Registeel built over the trees, rivers, and lakes, making them gray and lifeless. Regirock crumbled the mountains and volcanoes, destroying almost all pokemon and vegetation. Seeing this, Mew and Arcerus cried out in pain.

They awoke, and, to combat the destruction, created two more beings; Groudon, to combat Regirock's destruction and create mountains, and Kyogre, to create more oceans. But they continued to destroy, so Mew and Arcerus created three more beings; Suicune, to purify the oceans and lakes that Regirock and Registeel had destroyed, Entei, to create the volcanoes and melt Regice's icy wastelands, and Raikou, to bring lightning to the world, just to keep the balance of chaos and order.

With these pokemon's help, Regigas and his minions were defeated. Darkrai sent them into a deep, deep sleep, and Giratina banished them to the ends of the earth. He went back to his cemetery to keep an eye on them; it is where he remains to this day.

Mew, noticing the volcanoes could not be controlled by Entei alone, created Heatran, to live in the tallest of the volcanoes. Arucerus and Mew were about to sleep, when two pokemon fell from the sky; Rayquaza and Deoxys. These titans clashed for five days and five nights, until one more pokemon came from the North Star; Jirachi, which roughly translates to 'Wishmaster'.

Jirachi settled their fight, and Rayquaza went to protect the ozone layer, while Deoxys went back to space. Mew, upon seeing the chaos subside, wept with joy. From the tears or her left eye, the ashes of the Great War, and Stardust, the first humans were created. From the tears of her right eye, Soul Dew was formed, giving birth to the first Latias and Latios.

Mew was amazed, until she and Arcerus realized that the humans were nothing but shells. So they created Azelf, to give the humans the Willpower to live, Uxie, for the Knowledge to create cities and learn more. And finally, Mesprit, to give the humans the ability to love, hate, feel joy, sorrow, pain, loss, triumph, and everything in between.

But before they let Darkrai send them to sleep, they created a daughter, with snow-white skin, and eyes of fire. One who was neither human nor pokemon, but something in between. Mew and Arucerus ordered five pokemon to watch over her and be her guardians.

These pokemon are unknown, but some say that they were to be sought out by the girl herself. She was lost to them after that, some say, but others say that the girl was sent to our world, where she lives among humans, and will, in time, bring either great destruction or great creation to the world."

Professor Monarch finished. She looked at Luna. "I believe the girl in the legends is you." Luna gaped. "Why?" Prof. Monarch sighed. 'Isn't it obvious? You can talk to pokemon, you said someone saved you from the lab and set you free, and, well, white skin and red eyes... you certainly fit the description." Luna thought. "But the five guardians..."

Prof. Monarch said firmly, "I believe the guardians in the legends are legendary pokemon. The best strategy is to seek one of these ancient pokemon out, and get them to give you information." "And get herself killed??! Are you mad?!" Salem screamed.

"Well, she obviously isn't going alone, I presume?" She said, looking over the tops of her glasses. "No way in hell." Salem announced. "Quil!" "Kita agrees, too." Luna said. "Oh, that reminds me; Professor Monarch, do you have any extra Translators? It's getting annoying being the go-between for them." Professor Monarch nodded. "Oh, of course. Here, let me get them." She went back to her lab, and gave Salem six. "Oh, thank god!" Salem said, fastening it to Kita. "Hi, Salem!" Kita said. "Squee!"

Professor Monarch said, "Gaiha Forest is supposedly the home of a Legendary. See if the rumors are true, and ask whatever resides within for more information. But be careful. Not every legendary pokemon is benevolent."

They nodded. "Okay, well, goodbye, professor." She seemed surprised. "You're leaving now?" Luna nodded. "Yup! Lots of stuffs to do, so little time to do it!" The two rushed out, as the Professor just hoped neither of them would get killed. "Okay, so we've gotta buy a few things, then we set off for the forest. Agreed?" "Agreed!" The others chorused. They stopped at the market, and bought pokeballs, potions, and whatever else they could think of. Luna also bought an Absol doll.

"It looks like you, Merope!" She said, hugging it. Merope began to laugh. Everyone stopped. An Absol's laugh is both beautiful and rare, reminiscent of the cries of birds. Everyone was amazed. "Mer..." Luna whispered. She straightened. "Um, yes. Shall we go?" Luna smiled. "That was beautiful." Merope sighed. "I guess... mom always said it was important to laugh..."

They had reached the end of the forest. Luna pointed at the stars in the sky. "Merope, my mom told me a story. She said that when someone died, they turned into a star, so they could be with their loved ones, and watch over the living." Merope pointed to a star that seemed to shimmer in every color. "I think that's my mama." Luna nodded. "Maybe."

Merope cheered up after that, as everyone went to sleep. Until, "MOM! AZ'S SNORING!!" "I AM NOT!" ARE TOO!" "NUH-UH!" "YUH-HUH!" "AGGGHHH! SHUT THE FUCK UP, ALL OF YOU!!" Luna screamed.

"Godamnit, sonofabitch." Nyeros muttered, rolling over, covering his ears. "I think I'm traumatized for life." Merope muttered. This got Azrael's attention. "Me too! From that time when Luna got drunk at her aunt Mareth's wedding, and she cursed off her aunt's growlithe. Heh, that was funny." "Ooh, someone else's traumatized for life! And it's my fault! Wonderful! To ze therapy man!" Luna cheered. Merope just stared. "Oh my god." Salem laughed. "I bet she rides in the dryer, doesn't she?" Azrael and Feraia groaned. "Loves to."

(Okay, R&R, sheepies! P.S., Nyeros' new catchphrase is from South Park. Stan says it just like he does.)
