Chapter 18 – The Message and The Start


In the sunset sky over Orudoran a Charizard fly after a Mew in the sky towards the Tree of Beginning heading straight for it with two other Charizards close behind with Ash and Pikachu riding one, Liza on the other Charizard as they try to keep up with the Charizard Flare that just behind Mew. The group of pokémon flying over the landscape below many pokémon watching for that moment of the pokémon flying to the Tree of Beginning.

Mew entered the area where it stays and Flare landing on the ground looking over at the stockpile of toys, Mew flying around in circles then floating in front of him then spoke "Mew mew mew" then fly over to a toy and picking it up coming back then handing it to Flare. "Mew!" Mew point to it

Flare looked at the box with a handle on it and start twisting the handle around with his claw hand carefully a musical tone coming from it then the box lid pops open and Flare roared out in surprise falling over on his back just as the others arrived, he sat up looking at it. "This is a human child toy?" Flare held it up looking at the pokémon on the spring bouncing up and down. "You humans have the strangest of entertainment that I have seen" Flare put it down standing back up.

"That what we call a Jack in a Box and everyone including pokémon jump in surprise for the first time" Liza said as she got off Charla onto the ground. "Oh and hello to you Mew, it a honour to meet a legendary pokémon as yourself"

Mew flew around her then floating in front spoke back "You're a good human, come and play with some of my human toys" Mew put both paw hands on her armour left hand and pulled. "Come on try one"

Liza smiled "No thank you Mew, I am quite fine as I am"

Mew let go and blinked "You can understand?" Liza nod "Yeah!!!" Mew span around and flew up high then back down with a happy look on it face and from that guess Liza could tell Mew was a girl but sound like a child of five not something that live for more then 500 years.

"It thanks to Flare's little Brainfire pill, it affects increase the ability of listening. Right Flare?" Ash was sure at first then wasn't sure if that was the right answer looking for Flare to confirm it.

Flare pick up the toy placing it back on the pile looking over to Ash he spoke back "Yes that is right Ash, but I have no real idea how long it would last. It could be till the end of the day now or even weeks from now. It hard to tell with human beings, it was designed to help pokémon with hearing problems able to hear but they had to take one of these once the hearing fades for the rest of their lives, the only affect a burning mouth when you first take it" Flare confirmed what Ash said and told about it real purpose.

Mew look at Flare then at the two other Charizards "Are the humans fighting again?"

"Fighting?" Charizard stared at Mew then look at the armour he was wearing "Oh this, we just put it on for that guardian of aura thing that humans do here once a year"

"Like he said but once the day out we will be taking this stuff off" Charla spoke to Mew "But I have to say your just like I hear from stories told, a pokémon that out lives any normal pokémon and still a kid at heart"

Mew blushed and giggled "Yes I like toys and playing all day and night!" Mew flew around Charla then went over to some more toys taking out a toy of another pokémon and pushing down making it spin and come back up.

Flare watch Mew then just laughed, Mew look over at him still holding the toy "Before you ask, I know of someone that is a Mew species on Pokélonum and he care freeing as you popping up out of no where in any place having a bit of fun and usually when he arrive in a town or city and even a village there is always a party just to enjoy having a Mew kind around just the way they like it" Flare said to Mew. "His name is Mewif and I met him once when I was a little charmander, that brings back times" Flare laughed again.

Pikachu was amazed the wondered "How many Mews are there? On Pokélonum?"

"No one know for sure since they just pop up at any time or any place, not one for fighting but rumours go they can fight and only when there is no choice like in the Great Aura War that almost ripped 13 provinces apart over 1000 years ago" Flare said they all looking surprised "That when the law was made and still held that no one can learn the power of Aura since it could very well control the very strength of it."

Ash turned his head to Flare "that a law for over 1000 years?"

"That quite amazing to know" Liza spoke then said "I gather you read something about Aura to bring you chasing after Mew to here"

Flare grinned with a nod "Yes that is very true, it called Aura Messaging" Flare turning to Mew as he spoke "It a form of Aura that created by the particles that all around us. It from what I read use a tiny amount of it and my guess if this work, the Great Barrier won't block it but there is a chance that it would. I know it illegal to my worlds law, but this is the only last chance I can just let my daughter know that I am alive, this is very important to me now."

Charla spoke to Charizard quietly "Flare not the type from what I seen to break rules, must be his only option" Charizard nod calmly noticing Mew moving towards Flare.

Mew float right up to Flare looking right into his eyes, she and him staring at one another neither of them moving a bit. Ash and the others watch them both then soon they just sitting around or talking to each other, time and again looking at Flare and Mew seeing they haven't moved for a while now and time pass on as night showed it form over the sky completely and the moon now high in the sky.

In another location not to far away the Chopper being piloted by Officer Jenny chase after BlackCharizard the pokémon now on a increase of altitude. Cassidy and Butch seeing the gage going up and up now over 25,000 feet up and still climbing, at this point the chopper was having a hard time keeping up and going higher since it far past the safety limits by 20,000 feet up.

Officer Jenny was now having a real tough time with control "I can't get any higher, the chopper is starting to freeze" Jenny told Cassidy and Butch "We lost the Charizard" they just watch the BlackCharizard fly out of sight and distance carrying on up into the sky.

Cassidy took her phone and phoned up Giovanni then he answered "Boss we lost the BlackCharizard she flying high into the sky towards the Ozone Layer"

Giovanni wasn't happy to hear it but had to accept that this one got away for now "Very well, come to Alto Mare soon as possible. The city been evacuated already leaving the police and some others left including I. There is a storm brewing and he will show his true colours soon" Giovanni ends the call there.

Butch look to Officer Jenny "Get us to Alto Mare if you may"

"No can do, this chopper going back, we just got enough fuel to do so, once it been reloaded I will think about it" Jenny told him "Or otherwise we crash"

Butch gulped "Crash?"

"Oh put it together Butch" Cassidy spoke then look at Jenny "I hope there is enough strength in this thing to get us back"

"There should be, everyone hold tight" Jenny turned the chopper around heading back to Larousse City descending down from the high skies.

BlackCharizard felt a bit weak flying high into the sky the air already getting thin the tail fire starting to get small. She had to keep going for Zarkaruio then reach her limits flapping in the sky above clouds almost seeing stars in the sky; BlackCharizard was close to space and couldn't go any feather without endangering herself.

Zarkaruio looking at the image coming in from BlackCharizard, Lurna look over at him "Why are you putting that pokémon in risk of it life like that? Don't you know that poor thing tail going to go out if fly any higher" Lurna yelled at him

"Oh shut it human" Zarkaruio raise his hand at her blasting Lurna against the bars on the other side of the cage. "I plan to have her just stay there." Zarkaruio sneered at Lurna. "Now BlackCharizard let Rayquaza know your there. It time to talk to the only one that knows about me"

Meowth went over to Lurna and then look over at Zarkaruio "Rayquaza?" Meowth whispered. "How can he know Rayquaza?" Meowth mumbled watching Zarkaruio talking to BlackCharizard.

BlackCharizard nod and blasted a flame thrower into the sky then did another and another till a roar caught her hearing turning to see the green giant serpent pokémon flying right for BlackCharizard then she spoke out "Now I got your attention, my master wish to speak to you." Rayquaza was about to blast BlackCharizard when a holo image of a man appear in the air from the eyepiece making it stop in mid attack.

"Zarkaruio" Rayquaza instantly noticed whom it was even using the human body as a side form till time was right.

Zarkaruio laughed at Rayquaza "the little boy pokémon Rayquaza all grown up a shame your father isn't around. Oh that right I crushed him right in front of your eyes all those million years ago"

Rayquaza roared at him about to take a shot but didn't "So your using the black pokémon again for your duty work of conquest" Rayquaza spoke out to the hologram.

"Oh yes my servants" Zarkaruio grinned "Loyal to me and me only. Oh and this one is human or was, so I was you if you don't want to harm a human being"

"You coward!" Rayquaza sneered "Even it been so long I still remember it! You will lose again! I will make sure my father will be revenged and you being a uncle won't affect that" Rayquaza said to him

"Find the tower first" then the hologram about to close down. "Nice talk we had and I will be ready for you and all your legendary friends, the battle has finally started. My true form will raise and you will be the first to go, you're the most single threat then anyone else since you know of me more then any others" the hologram disappeared

BlackCharizard let a flamethrower out hitting Rayquaza in the face he about to strike back with a hyper beam but pause closing his mouth with a very anger look at her. "Bye" she flew down towards the land leaving an anger Rayquaza up in the Ozone Layer.

"Zarkaruio…" Rayquaza sneered then thought looking to the ground far below "Human child of the Pikachu friend, tell them and I will be not the only one that knows, time to tell the War of Ancients" Rayquaza flew towards the ground to find them leaving the Ozone Layer.

Back at Orudoran in the Tree of Beginning Flare and Mew was still staring into each other eyes making everyone around them wonder what going on between Flare and Mew more and more by each moment passing by. Ash sighed then look over at Liza "How long has it been?"

"No idea, a good 5 hours of so I think, It already past Midnight and I am feeling like going to sleep" Liza said looking at Ash "I would guess between 3 and 6am in the morning we been up all night watching these two staring at each other" Liza was looking at them again. "How can two pokémon stay in those positions for so long?"

Charizard then replied with close eyes "they must be talking to each other in a mental plain of some sort, I seen this happen with some pokémon. It seem to be a staring contest but in fact their eyes are open but no light coming on them so it like invisible eye lids closed"

"Wow, that impressive" Ash said to Charizard "I am sure you know that cause of we couldn't understand pokémon speaking" Ash look over at the two.

"Well it boring me" Charla yawned "I am going to go off and fly a bit. I need the fresh air" Charla turn to leave.

Mew then flew in front of her making Charla jump back in surprise "We done" Mew said happily "Sorry we took so long, but we was sharing things"

"Things? What type of things?" Charla looked at the Mew moving around then look at Flare.

"One of them is the Aura Message and the other thing was that I showed her my world from my point of view and she showed me thing about this little part of the world that was amazing even they happened a long time ago" Flare said to Charla explaining what things Mew was talking about.

Ash walk up to Flare to the left turning around to face him "So it was some sort of psychic exchange?"

"Psychic Exchange, sound funny and I like that name" Mew said childishly to them flying around then stop looking at Flare "It time"

Flare stood with a grin "Thank you Mew" Flare said seeing Mew power up a Aura energy field that was appearing before them a green glow was appearing.

"What is that?" Ash said covering his eyes a bit

Liza covered hers "Whatever it is, it must be Aura"

"It message Aura" Mew told them "Flare now say your words"

Flare smiled "I am Alive and Well" then the Aura ball shot up through the ceiling then into the sky "Now all I can do is hope"

"Is that it?" Liza frowned "All that waiting for one message that possible not get there" Flare was about to glare at her "But since it for a kid of yours that you haven't seen in over 3 years then it worth it" Flare nod with a happy look on his Charizard face.

"Ash you would do this for me wouldn't you?" Pikachu said to Ash looking up at him.

Ash picked Pikachu up "Right buddy I would do it" Pikachu standing now on his backpack head and hand paws on the shoulder on the right side.

Charizard look at them "Why don't we go back to the castle now? I am sure the others are getting worried by now" Charizard said looking out to the castle near the edge of the level they was on the sun was rising into the sky.

Ash walked up to the edge looking at the sunrise "I think we can now" Ash look over at Flare, he nod to it. "Then lets go back" Ash said then looked at Mew "I guess we will meet again" Mew nod with a happy smile then fly around them as a help to them, teleported them all back to the Palace in a flash.

Mew then looked to the Palace floating up to above the Tree of Beginning "I remember the old world before the war of the Ancients. I might been there when it happened but my powers cannot rival that of them. Why do I sense that old Aura in the sky the Black Aura" Mew then look to the west. "Is he awake? Is Zarkaruio alive once more?"

A flash to the past Mew remembered almost near a beach explosions with Mew crashing into the cliff face, Mew looking up from falling into the sand seeing the psychic field around the pokémon that Mew know as Zarkaruio with not red but purple black eyes giving a glow. The furry tail whipping a bit with a arm starched out to Mew the three finger one thumb claw tip paw hand aim at Mew a energy ball forming of Dark Aura. The launching it at Mew, the flash back ends and Mew using her short arm touch her chest almost like she was feeling the impact over again a tear falling from her large eyes down the pink fur then falling to the ground as she stared into the distance.

"I was only one of the lucky ones" Mew whispered then not feeling like having fun go back down to the Tree of Beginning but stop when she saw something that flew right past her only a few meters moving westwards but for that second both made eye contact Mew tilting her head watching it fly by. It grinned and carried on flying then shot by. "BlackCharizard" Mew whispered in shock then her eyes went wide seeing it disappear into the distance "He back! This is serious trouble for the world! I got to tell them at once!" Mew the speeds off to the Palace fast as she can.
