Author's Notes: It's been a while since I've updated this story. I think I've found a way of doing my fanfics. I'll update them in a cycle: WIIAM, TGOTL, P:UE, and then FE:L. I really hope this will work for me, as well as for you. Now I might end up breaking this sequence a couple of times, but this will be the cycle I will generally refer to. All that aside, let's continue with the story.
Disclaimer: Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
A couple of weeks passed. Although River assured him that she probably wouldn't get pregnant, Drey still worried. However, he didn't have a lot of time to ponder these things. His training was picking up, and he felt himself getting stronger and better each day. One day, they he was summoned, along with Tristian, to the throne room. Well, throne room is a strong word. The room was about as big as a large concert hall. It did actually have a throne, where Arceus herself sat in her human form. Drey and Tristian knelt before her.
"Rise," Arceus said. As we did, she stood as well and walked towards us. "We have received intelligence of another attack. Your task is to go there, and gather intel, as well as quell any trouble they may cause."
Drey nodded. "How will we know who they are?" He asked.
"Believe me. You'll know. They aren't what you would call sneaky." She answered. "And since this is your first mission, River will accompany you. You'll find her waiting for you in the front hall. She give you the specifics."
Drey and Tristian nodded, and headed toward the door.
"And Drey?" Arceus called. He turned.
"Yes?" He asked.
"Be careful." Was her reply. He nodded again and followed Tristian out of the throne room.
~~~~Time Skip~~~~
"Arceus told me to fill you in on the specifics." River said as they joined her at the front entrance.
"That's correct." Tristian agreed.
"So what are we doing?" Drey asked.
"I've rented a couple of hotel rooms near the arena where we believe they'll attack. Basically we're the scouting team. We're going ahead to gather information and reconnaince. We send what we've learned back, and they decide the best course of action. However, in the case that they attack earlier than we expect, we're there to help stop them." River explained.
"So where exactly are we going?" Drey asked.
"Castelia City. the Medal Company stationed there is a huge supporter of half-pokemon rights, and is therefore a huge target."
"Of course." Tristian said, thinking. "But how will we go unnoticed? Even if we just wore our regular clothes, How would we conceal our armor and weapons?"
"Simple," River replied, rummaging in a bag beside her. She pulled out two necklaces, and extended them towards the twins. "With these."
"What are those?" Drey asked curiously. One had a diamond, In which a fire almost seemed to be burning. The other was an extremely reflective crystal, which shone with every color imaginable.
"These are for both of you. They channel the power of your chosen Legendary." River explained, handing the diamond necklace to Tristian and the other to Drey. "All you have to do is clutch the necklace and wish for your weapon and armor. It will appear on you. Really easy."
"So we're leaving now?" Tristian asked. "What about our clothes?"
"I've all ready packed our clothes." River replied, gesturing to the three bags behind her.
"You went into my room?" Tristian asked, blushing.
The side of River's mouth twitched. "Yes, and I must say, your choice of decoration is...sweet." She said. That just made Tristian blush harder. She glanced at Drey, who was standing with a look of puzzlement on his face, then she grabbed up her pack and headed for the door. River cracked a smile as she picked up her bag as well, and followed Tristian, leaving Drey scratching his head. He finally shrugged, moving to grab his bag as well.
"Must be a girl thing." He said to himself.
