I do not own Pokemon Colosseum or it's characters and Pokemon.


Matt's POV

BEEP, BEEP, BEE-

I press the snooze button on the alarm and blink the sleep away from my eyes. I get out of my bed and walk towards my bathroom. I feel something brush up against my leg and looked down to see Flameon brushing up against my leg.

"Hi girl, how you doing?" I asked, rubbing her stomach. I hear a loud burp from behind me and find Munchlax with a opened can of soda.

"Who drinks soda at 7:00 in the morning?" I asked him. He just takes another sip of the soda and walks off. I chuckle and head into the bathroom. I grab my comb and try to untangle my messy brown hair. When that's down, I brush my teeth while walking towards my closet. I open it up and pull out a random combo of clothes and get dressed. I spit the toothpaste remains out into the sink.

"Alright guys, I might be coming home late tonight. So Flameon's in charge." The look on Munchlax's face was priceless. Flameon just smirked at him before rubbing up against my leg again. I pat her on the head and pat Munchlax as well before heading out the door. I walk up to my bike... well I guess it's sort of my bike.

I wonder if Wes remembers me. I also wonder what he would do if he ever found me.

I look back at the bike to compare it to what it used to look like and what it's like after I made some modifications. I had to get rid of those engine spokes in the back, sure it made it look cool, but in the long run it just slows you down. I also gave it some color. Now it was purple with a blue line across each end. It was pretty cool now. I mount the bike and make my way towards Pyrite. It takes me about 15 minutes to get there.

"5 minutes early. A new record." I get off my bike and press the alarm on my bike before heading towards the news building. I walk inside to find only a few employees here, some looking more dead then alive. I sure hope that's not my future.

"Yomoshi!" I hear my boss yell my name and immediately run to his office. "Boss" is a bald man with 3 kids, a wife and a dog to take care of. I'm pretty sure he takes his anger out on us employees. But today isn't going to be the case with me, because when I enter his office he was smiling.

"Yomoshi, I've got a big job for you to do. You know those Pokemon that Mirror B's been handing out at the Colosseum? Well, I've got a tip that they even attack people. Find anything you can about those Pokemon, become one of Mirror B's goons, just get me that info!" He screamed.

"Uh sir? I think there is something wrong with those Pokemon. Everytime I see a battle going on, one trainer has a Pokemon with some purple aura surrounding it. But judging by how people just think it's a normal Pokemon battle, I don't think no one can see it but me." I told him.

"Then it's a blessing! Go out there and find someone with a black aura Pokemon and gets some pictures of it in action. If you can get anything at all, I'll triple your paycheck!" I rush out the door right after he said, "paycheck" I rush outside and head to Battle Square and sure enough a battle's going on between a Misdreviaus and a Furret. Both had Black auras around each other. I recognized one of the battlers as Cail, the green haired rouge boy. The other one is a mystery.

"Misdreviaus, use Shadow Rush!"

"Furret, you too!" Both Pokemon ran at each other and became engulfed in shadows before hitting each other dead on. And I got the collision on camera. Triple paycheck, here I come! But before I could run back to the Boss's office, the Misdreviaus's aura turns dark orange and it looks at me. It then forms a shadow ball and launches it at me! I dodged out of the way and made a break for the office. But the Misdreviaus cut me off. It then used Shadow Rush and I only barely dodged it.

"Hey! Control your Pokemon!" I screamed at the trainer. He was fumbling for his Pokeball to call Misdreviaus back. I didn't notice Misdreviaus charging up another Shadow ball until it hit me on the side of my leg. I wince and wait for the final blow, but heard a Pokeball land. Soon the Chief comes and helps me to his office and addresses my wound. After giving a bow of thanks, I exit the building and head to Boss's office.

"Yomoshi, what happened to your leg? Tell me later. Did you get the photos I wanted?" I open up my knapsack and pull out the pictures. The Chief had a photo printer in his office, which is a lucky break on my part.

"These pictures are mind-boggling! I've got another job for you, Yomoshi! I hear that 2 thugs were carrying a squirming sack, rumor has it that they were heading to the Outskirt stand then to Phenac! Beat them there and get me a scoop!" He said. "Oh and if you see anything else suspicious, get in on camera!"

"Yes sir!" I then rush out of the building and towards my bike.

I'd better get Flameon and Munchlax. These guys will probably have some Pokemon on them.

So I rev up my bike and head towards my house. But I can't shake the feeling that something both relieving and dangerous is gonna happen when I get to Phenac. But it's probably just my imagination, right? I pull up in front of the house and see Flameon rush towards me.

"Hey girl. How about you and Munchlax come with me to Phenac to get a big scoop?" I said, putting her on the ground. As soon as the words came from my mouth, Flameon was rushing towards the bike. She loves going to other places on my bike. Munchlax, amazingly does too when he isn't eating something.

"Munch?" Munchlax appeared in the door. Flameon started baying at him, possibly telling him what's going. Munchlax quickly ran to the bike and climbed onto the handlebars. I quickly get them situated in the "cargohold" and speed off towards Phenac. It takes 5 minutes to get there and, like the boss said some Shady looking guys were outside a truck. But they went running off, right past me, to Pyrite town.

What's got there shorts in a bunc-

My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of rustling. For some reason, Munchlax and Flameon's fur bristle and point to the back of the city. I give them a suspicious look, but still park the bike out near one of the entrances/exits of the city and enter. Munchlax and Flameon have been cautious since we got here, though why is a mystery. Soon Flameon pushes me into the water and hides somewhere. Munchlax goes down as well and takes out one of those underwater air thingy and shoved it in my mouth.

I glare at Munchlax, who was pointing up. I look up and let out an air bubble of amazement. The sandy colored hair, the silver sunglasses and the blue trench coat. It was Wes. No wonder my Pokemon were acting up, they must be scared for me. Wes isn't the most understanding person I've known, you know? I floated there, as if the water had been turned into ice and I was frozen solid.But the air bubble had other ideas. It had started to float towards the surface.

As usual, Wes's supersonic ears picked up the small noise. And his eyes shot to the water's surface.

We stared into each others eyes, different emotions went through his eyes. But the last one was the most frightening...

Anger
