I see that its Mewtwo's silhouette, and I watch carefully as it forms in front of the forest. First there was nothing there, and then there was some kind of disturbance in the surrounding air, I saw that the air appeared to bend, or somehow move as if something was disturbing it. I'm not sure how else to explain it, or if I'm explaining it right. Anyway, when Mewtwo appears in front of the forest, it is floating towards us and then it's eyes are trained on me and Jenna. I don't feel threatened this time, I feel calm and cool about it, and so I just stand there and wait as the pokemon comes closer to me and my best friend.
I wait a few seconds, and I see that the pokemon is moving towards us quite quickly. I look down at the ground for a few seconds, and then look to my right as Jenna is staring at Mewtwo as well. Her mouth is open, and she looks like she is shocked and I'm wondering why, so I decide to ask her.
"Jenna, what's the matter? Why do you look like you're shocked?" Jenna turns her head to me, and then says,
"Luke, I'm afraid of what he is going to tell us. I hope it's nothing bad, but what can I do if it is something bad right?" I nod my head, and think of a good response to what she has said.
"Jenna, don't worry about it. We can't change anything that's happening in the world right? Whatever happens is determined by fate. Fate can be changed though if a particular person or pokemon attempts to change it and succeeds right?" Jenna smiles and nods her head as she realizes that I am right. I smile back at Jenna because I like to see her smile, it always puts me in a good mood and makes me smile. I like seeing the most important figures in my life as happy figures and not sad or moody figures, I would even say that moods are contagious because they can influence another being's mood. For example, when Jenna was upset about me not listening to her, I became upset as well. When I realize that I am thinking of something unrelated to the task at hand, I look up and see that Mewtwo is in front of us.
"Luke, how've you been? It's been a while since we last met." Mewtwo is looking at me now, and I turn to look at Jenna who is looking at me as well. I smile at the two of them, and then answer Mewtwo's question.
"I've been fine Mewtwo. How've you been? Me and Jenna were a little worried about you since we left quickly, you were panicking about us, and you were worried about our safety. I want to say thank you for saving us from a curse, and thank you so much for not attacking us despite the curse of the forest that you live in." Mewtwo looks down at the ground as I say this, and I can tell that something is wrong. Was it what I said? I want to know what's wrong, so I continue speaking. "Mewtwo, is something wrong? Was it what I said? I'm sorry if I said something wrong." Mewtwo continues to be silent for a while, and then it looks up at me quickly. I gasp in shock because I can see into it's eyes, and when I look into it's eyes, I get visions of what previously happened in the forest, meaning when it was under the curse it wanted to battle and literally destroy us. I look away from Mewtwo's eyes, and then it begins to speak.
"Luke, it is nothing about what you said. It is something that is happening to this world. There is trouble brewing." I feel my heart skip a few beats, and I look at Jenna who is looking at me as well. She looks like she is confused as well, and it takes me a few moments to realize what Mewtwo is talking about. Once I realize what it is talking about, then I stop breathing in fear. Is it something related to the curse? What could it be? Is the curse spreading?
"Mewtwo, you must talk to us. Tell us what is going on and how we can stop it. Please, you need to tell us!" I say loudly in a mix of fear and frustration. Mewtwo is looking at me now, I can feel the powerful gaze tracing me accurately and quietly. Then it begins to speak.
"Luke, you may already have an idea to what is happening. You may be right, if you are guessing that the curse is spreading." I am silent because I do not know how to respond to that and before I can respond, Jenna speaks.
"How do you stop the curse from spreading?" I look at her, and see that she sounds worried. Mewtwo turns its gaze on her, and then it says,
"I'm not sure yet. Remember how I said that some things don't have answers?" I nod my head but feel annoyed because I want to help but I'm not sure how to without more answers.
"Mewtwo, you need to know how to stop this. I don't know how to help otherwise." Mewtwo nods its head.
"Yeah Luke, this will be a hard task. It will definitely be harder than it was for you to master the power of reading auras. But I believe you can do this." Jenna turns to me and then looks at Mewtwo again.
"Then where is the curse spreading to right now?"
"I'm not sure, but I think you should investigate some nearby areas." There is that feeling again, the frustration welling up inside me again. I don't understand how it can't give us direct answers, and why it claims to know everything but I know that I will get the same exact answer if I try to question it's intelligence. I decide to remain silent, and then turn to Jenna.
"Well I guess it's up to us to find out how to do this." Jenna looks at me with wide eyes.
"But where should we even go? The forest is destroyed isn't it?" Mewtwo nods its head. I gasp as soon as I remember and realize this because I know that the forest had Mewtwo's home in it. Then what would happen to Mewtwo?
"What happened to your home?" I ask. Mewtwo looks down and has a sad expression on its face when it answers me.
"Luke, I'm afraid that the curse engulfed my home. It is no more, and I want it to come back." It's voice is full of sorrow as it says this, and I look down feeling the sorrow myself. I love my home and I wouldn't be happy if mine was destroyed so I can actually sympathize with Mewtwo here.
"That's terrible! Is there any way to get your home back? Like if we stop the curse and prevent it from spreading?" Mewtwo nods its head, and then it looks up at me.
"Yes Luke, you are a smart being. You know things, and you are a very good pokemon. You have a good heart, and that's what matters." Jenna looks at me and moves closer. I watch her closely as she nuzzles against my stomach and then wraps her arms around me. I smile, and feel my happiness rising despite everything that I have heard from Mewtwo. It's really nice to have her hug me, especially cause I have an attraction towards her. I hug her back, and she giggles in a cute and nice manner. When Jenna laughs, her voice is high pitched and that is one reason why I feel the way I do towards her. I look around at my surroundings, and see that there is a path behind us. I see that the forest is in front of us, but I'm curious to know where the path leads to meaning the path that goes into the forest. I would want to see where it starts, and what we have in store for us before the forest. Since I was raised in Floccesy Ranch, I know what it's like in this area, and I haven't been too far away from the ranch so I'm itching to see the outside world other than the cursed forest. I turn to Jenna, and then say,
"Jenna, I want to follow the same path we took last time. I want to see where that path starts and go backwards if you understand what I mean." Jenna looks at me in shock and then she nods her head.
"Luke, you have some pretty good ideas here. Also you led us the right way before, and since there's no forest anymore, should we just advance on that path again?"
"Hmmm..." I say out loud as soon as Jenna says this. I see that Mewtwo is looking at the two of us, and it is silent. I'm wondering why its still here, but I say nothing, and then before I can do anything else, it speaks to us.
"Luke, Jenna, you can go wherever you choose to go. I promise you that wherever you go, whatever path you choose you will get to the heart of this problem and solve it quickly and accurately. You will do a good job with this, and I know that you will succeed. I have complete faith in you." Mewtwo closes its eyes, and then I see that it is using teleport. I see that it's silhouette is becoming transparent, and within seconds it is gone. It happens before my eyes can process what I just saw, and then I look at Jenna. I see that she is looking at me, and then she asks me,
"Are you ready to start another journey Luke?" I nod my head, and clench my fist. I put my fist in the air, and respond.
"Of course I'm ready Jenna!" Jenna laughs and this is embarrassing to me, so I look at the ground and blush. Jenna notices that she embarrassed me and so she looks at me with worry and says,
"Luke, what's the matter?" Without looking at her, I say,
"Jenna, that was a little embarrassing. You were laughing at me weren't you?" Jenna looks away in embarrassment, and nods her head.
"Yeah, I was. I wasn't laughing in a mean way though," she says slowly. Before I can respond, I notice that something is wrong in the environment. I look down at the grass below my feet, and see that it is dying. The curse! I open my mouth in surprise and look up at Jenna who is looking at me in surprise as well.
"Luke, we'd better go!"
"Where should we go?" I ask. Jenna turns to look behind us, and says,
"Let's go that way! We should move away from the cursed lands and areas." I nod my head in agreement, and then quickly walk out of the ranch.
