A/N: Note, if you haven't seen the movies Lucario and the Mystery or Arceus and the Jewel of Life then this chapter, and this story, won't make any sense!
The first POV is a lengend (of Arceus) I will be putting parts of this legend (A lot of it is made up). Read it because it will explain a lot of stuff. The second POV is of Mew. This will also explain stuff. So not a ton of action in this chapter, but still it is important. Sorry that it is short too. But here is chapter nineteen!
/*/*/*
Chaos.
Order.
Two constant forces, fighting.
Fighting in a great void.
Fighting for control.
These two forces didn't know right from wrong. They didn't know. They just were.
Chaos against Order. Gone.
Order against Chaos. Gone.
Once they collided, they ceased to exist. But there was more of them, and the process would repeat. Exist. Collide. Gone. Over and over, no end in sight.
Until something happened. Something that hasn't happened before.
When two of these particles collided, they didn't vanish. They became one. Something new. Something that had never existed before.
Balance.
This one little new particle was different than the others. It was Chaos and Order, not one over the other, not fighting, but-
Balanced.
The particle gave a little shudder, it... felt.
Peace.
This new feeling was short lived, as many other particles turned, attacking. Chaos trying to destroy Order in the Balance, and Order trying to destroy the Chaos within the Balance.
But like before, it didn't destroy. As each particle collided with Balance, even more was formed. Until there was only one force.
Balance.
The new force was different. It didn't fight, it existed.
And it felt.
But it didn't want to exist. It wanted to be.
This new force began to collapse into each other, collapsing into a single shape. A single form.
An egg.
And from this egg came a new creature. A creature that could think. Dream. Wish.
A creature that could Create.
The creature took a deep breath, and open its eyes. It blinked, feeling the pum pum of its heart. The flow of blood and air within its body. It lifted up a golden hoofed leg, moving. A power flowed within him. One that allowed him to live.
He opened his mouth, and gave it a name.
"Aura."
Aura.
/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/
Eevee didn't know why she was still here.
She should have fled as soon as the strange people began attack.
But she didn't want to leave the girl.
She was a strange girl, she had helped Eevee. And Eevee could not figure out why she had helped her. Eevee cocked her head as the battle raged on.
The strange man in blue was commanding a female Pikachu, while nice girl was commanding a male one. One of Eevee's ears twitched, the Pidgeot that was circling above was making her nervous.
She stuttered as she remembered how she had almost ended up as the Fearow's dinner. Her leg and paw were still bleeding. But then the girl had come.
The girl had saved her.
She refocused her attention, she couldn't leave the girl now.
/*/*/*/*/*/
War.
Mew hated it.
It was nothing but a unmoral competition to see who was right. But in the end, no one was right.
Mew leaned forward, studying the scene that was playing before her in the reflection of the rock. As long as she provided a constant aura to the stones, she could view anything within the stones. Only a few of these stones existed outside of the Tree, and Mew kept constant watch over them.
Mew could only watch as the men prepared for a battle. Another stone showed an actual battle happening, but Mew didn't watch. She had seen enough wars in her lifetime. She refocused her attention to a crowd of protesting people. It was a small group of people, but they were begging in earnest for the war to stop.
Mew's eyes dampened, for she knew what would happen next. They would all be arrested. Then tried as traitors. And all traitors were put to... Mew closed her eyes.
And the war wouldn't stop there.
It would rage for two more years.
Two long, bloody years.
Then the war would be brought to the steps of the Cameran Place.
Then Sir Aaron would come.
Mew floated up to the Heart of the Tree of Beginnings. This is where Sir Aaron would give his life. Mew knew it, even though it hadn't happened yet.
Mew sent a pulse of Aura into the Heart, and the image shifted, showing her Sir Aaron. Mew recoiled at the scene.
She quickly begged the Tree to show her more of the past, and the tree complied. She watched a conversation between Sir Aaron and the Queen. Mew closed her eyes in thought. Of course... The laws of the land were strict at this age of time. With no proper Aura Guardian with Pikachu... Pikachu was in danger, well, not him, but his companions.
Mew turned and dove into the wall, and into the Time Stream. (In Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, there is a part where Pikachu, Mew, and Meowth go through a tree [like an illusion of some kind,] and there is all of these floating green orbs in this tunnel. I'm calling this the Time Stream, Mew uses it to appear in different times. That's how she is watching the war, but knows that Sir Aaron would give his life. That's how she's recognizes Pikachu, even though there meeting hasn't happened yet [in that current time.] Basicly, time doesn't matter inside the tree. Mew can see anything, and go to any time.)
She floated through the Time Stream, carefully floating around the green orbs, looking deeply into each one. As she went up, she began to vibrate. Mew closed her eyes and forced her way through the Time Lapse. She was the only one that could travel pass a Time Lapse. And one of the few that could break them.
Up ahead there was a blue glow.
Mew increased her speed to the orb. Unlike all of the other green orbs, this one was blue. Mew pressed a small finger into the blue orb, and her eyes flashed white. Memories flowed through her. All of them featuring a boy with messy black hair, with a Pikachu by his side.
Mew shook off the shock of the sudden overwhelming memories of Ash. She carefully shuffled through them as she made her way back to the Heart of the Tree.
Scenes were still playing within the rocks, but with a simple flick of her tail, all of them vanished. She floated up to the main crystal, and sent a pulse of aura into the rock. New images formed in the stones.
Ash's memories.
Mew carefully avoided a few of the memories, only searching for the one she was looking for. She had access to everyone's memories, but she still tried to intrude as little as possible.
She quickly paused at one memory, nearly recoiling at the image.
So he had been in contact with Ash.
She watched the memory play out. A man in blue with a Lucario was talking to Ash. Explaining something, handing him a silver ring with a blue gem in it. A gem that looked just like the crystal the memory was playing in. Ash turned the ring over in his hand, then said something to the man. The man smiled, said something, then ran off, leaving Ash alone in the fog.
Mew tried to keep her aura under control as she watched the man.
Riley.
She quickly moved on to different memories, she couldn't bare looking at that man. It only brought back painful memories.
Speaking of painful memories, she saw yet another man in Ash's memories that brought back bad memories of her own.
The man had dark green hair and green eyes. His skin was deathly pale, a Zoroark was at his side.
Zan.
Mew flinched at the sight of him, but what upset her the most was what was around his neck.
It was an obsidian rock, smooth except for the colored gems coming out of them. Pieces of Arceus's plates. And together they made the Amulet of Arceus.
Mew hung her head, it had been her duty to protect the amulet. If one used it under the correct circumstances it could be used against Arceus. It could be used to control Arceus. Mew had been guarding the Amulet. She was supposed to keep watch.
But it would have been soon handed over to another guardian soon, so she had lowered her guard the last hundred years, believing that anyone would be strong enough- or know enough, to take it.
Then Zan had come.
His forces had quickly immobilized the current defenders of the trees, Regice, Registeel, and Regirock. He soon had cornered her with his Zoroark, surrounding her with a Dark Pulse, immobilizing her as we;;.
Then he had taken the Amulet.
Mew had failed Arceus. She had failed her Master for the second time.
With a sigh she turned back to Ash's memories, searching. Gathering his story. Piecing together what was going on.
After a moment Mew pulled away, thinking. Ash was pretty far in the prophecy. Just missing three legendaries, Jirachi, Manaphy, and of course, herself. But there was one problem...
She was only allowed to assist a person one per lifetime. She had already assisted Ash. She had brought him back when the tree had consumed his aura. Panic rose through her, if she couldn't help Ash, the prophecy would be neutralized. The world would be endangered.
Zan would win.
Her eyes turned to Pikachu and his battle with Sir Aaron.
Then it hit her. The Time Lapse! Pikachu and the other legendaries were here in Sir Aaron's time to get her.
From another lifetime.
By traveling back in time via Time Lapse, they could override the law that kept her from assisting people once per lifetime, and she could complete her place in the prophecy.
Relief washed over her. Ash may have been captured, and Jirachi, but she could meet up with the other legendaries in Sir Aaron's time. She could contact Manaphy once she broke the Time Lapse.
Then they could save Ash. They still had a chance to turn the prophecy to their side. They had a chance to save Arceus.
She had a chance to save her Master.
She looked at the heart of the tree. One pulse of aura would allow her to contact Arceus, but she could bare to face him. He had created her to protect this world. And the Tree, the only link between Arceus's realm and this world.
She turned back to the image of Pikachu. She had to stop this battle between Pikachu and Sir Aaron before someone got hurt, or worse.
Mew transformed into a Ho-oh and flew out of the heart of the Tree, into the crisp air, searching for a certain Pikachu and Aura Guardian.

A/N: So basically we learn about how Arceus was born, and some of Mew's story. Here is a few facts about Mew:
She can control Aura (The first one besides Arceus.)
She protects the gateway (Tree of Beginnings) between Acreus's realm and the Pokemon world. The Tree of Beginnings itself holds up Arceus's realm, so that is why she must guard it.
She guards the Amulet of Arceus (Until Zan stole it).
The Amulet of Arceus holds pieces of Arceus's plates (The reason why will be explain in a few chaps). If the right sacrifice is used (Ash's Pikachu) under the correct circumstances the Amulet could be used to control Arceus (Will be explained in a few chaps!)
Mew was created to guard the Pokemon world, Aura, and the Amulet of Arceus.
Mew has failed Arceus twice (Mew let the Amulet be taken, and the other reason will be explained in a few chaps!)
Mew has met Riley before.
Mew has met Zan.
Mew's personality changes depending on how the Time Stream is flowing. (Like in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew she was really playful, but right now she is very humble and worried.)
The Time Stream is basically the flow of Time (But Dialga can control it). Each green orb represents someone, and a blue orb represent someone that can use aura. These orbs hold all of the thoughts of the person, which Mew can view.
Manaphy's red crystal comes from the Tree of Beginnings, and can view anything.
Mew is a very cute Pokemon.
Mew is the leader of all of the legionaries in the prophecy.
Mew is still a cute Pokemon.
Different Legendary trios take turns helping guard the Tree (It rotates between the Legendary Birds, Legendary Beasts, and the Legendary Golems.) The Golems are the current Guardians, (In Ash's time) And the Beasts are in Sir Aaron's time.
Mew is cute.
Did I miss anything?
Oh yeah! Mew is cute!
I also have a question of the day: What is your favorite starter Pokemon from each gen?
