(Sinister Music) I'M BACK! Well, actually I've been back for a while now, but I couldn't get my story up until today since it takes time. Also, I've been working on like a million other stories, so hopefully the practice will help my story progress even better!
You know what I find ironic WindKaizer, that's the song I was listening to when I was writing this chapter. You gotta love Rihanna.
You'll see a lot more of Darkrai this chapter, trust me Attila. Of course, weather he's ok or not I can't say yet. You'll have to keep reading to find out.
Entei's more of a conflicted character then a mean one. He doesn't actually know what side he's on, nice are cruel. His feelings have started t conflict more with the appearance of Bullet…. Hmmmmmm….. and this chapter expect some very weird fluff from him, you've been warned. Fear not though Felix, Entei still isn't out of the woods, I still have quite a few things planned for our little fire lion. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Suicune's POV
I yawned and opened my eyes. It was morning by now and the horizon was tinted pink, surrounded by a light purple. When I looked around, I didn't recognize my surroundings. I was alone here, far away from the rest of the group. I couldn't even catch their scents. I tried to stand up, but my legs felt a bit shaky and body was sort of groggy. The feelings that coursed through my body made me remember last night's events.
"The dream and… Bark…" I said to myself. I felt bad fro running off on him, but I was so embarrassed about last night that I didn't know what else to do. I sighed and decided to look for the rest of the group. Being alone at a time like this wasn't exactly the best place to be. I stretched and yawned once more before proceeding through the bushes and trees. I still couldn't catch anyone's scent, so it made me wonder exactly how far I'd gone. It made me wonder if they'd crossed a river or stream anywhere nearby. I decided to go look for water. As well as lost, I was also pretty thirsty. I stopped at a nearby river for a drink. The water was surprisingly cold for Johto water; it made me wonder if I'd somehow woken up in Sinnoh. While I drank, I noticed something reflected in the water. A familiar figure loomed over me, it appeared dark but it was unmistakably my brother Entei. I spun around.
"Entei!" I exclaimed. His eyes glared down at me, they appeared to be shining in the dim light of the forest canopy. I straightened myself up and stood my ground.
"What're you doing here?" I asked casually. His eyes narrowed at me.
"What did I do now?" I groaned as he gave me his infamous "fire glare". There where a number of reasons that he could've been angry with me, so I didn't bother asking again. I narrowed my eyes and glared back at him.
"Aren't you going to talk to me?" I growled in a low, dangerous voice. He stared back at me for a long time, then without any warning he turned and ran from me. My eyes widened at first, by my instincts sent me darting after him.
"You get back here, Entei!" I yelled after him, but he kept running. For some odd reason, even in the lighting he appeared as a dark shadow. I skidded to a stop as I watched the sunlight fall on him, his fur still remained black.
"Entei?" I question, but no response was given. I stepped to him, but then instant I did he launched a black ball of fire from his mouth. I dodge it as quickly as a could, but another came instantly after the other. My body was engulfed in the black flame, and I could see Entei on the outside. Something wasn't right with him, he seemed to be transforming. My body began to grow weak and drowsy. I wasn't sure if I was hallucinating, but it appeared as if Entei was transforming into another familiar figure. That's when I finally took in his scent, it wasn't Entei at all.
"D-darkrai…" I whispered as consciousness slowly faded away.
Entei's POV
"Where are you going? You come back right now!" Bullet called from behind me. I could hear her hooves beating on the dirt as she came closer.
"Get AWAY from me Bullet! I'm not going back to MT. Olympus!" I growled as I began to dash off. Bullet grabbed my mane-cape at the last second, causing me to be jerked backwards.
"You can't go! You have to go back and help Arceus!" She growled between gritted teeth. I shook her from my cape, causing her to fall face first in the dirt.
"No I will not go help Arceus! The Pokemon god can take care of himself! Besides, do you know what he'd do to me if he found out what I told the humans! He'd kick my ass half way around the freakin universe for cryin out loud!"
"You and I both know he could be in danger! The humans might be too strong!"
"Well, that's his fault for making them in the first place!" I growled as I began to go in the opposite direction, but she was right in my face the second I turned.
"He's family to you!"
"No shit! Arceus's family to EVERYTHING! Even trees!! Do you think I really care what happens to him?"
"Yes I do. Family always means something." She said circling into my path again.
"No it doesn't. Some people, and Pokemon as a matter a fact couldn't care less about their families. You can't look after your family all the time!" I said darting around her.
"You're just like my brother…" She said suddenly. I skidded to a stop and turned back to her.
"What?"
"My brother never cared about anything any of our other siblings did. He treated me badly, my sisters my little brother his mate even my daughter."
"Your…."
"Yes I said daughter. Mimi, three year old today. Well, she would be one year if it wasn't for that "accident" that happened two years ago…"
"Accident?"
"Well, it was no accident what happened to her. My brother lead her up that really steep mountain range north of Mt. Silver. He said he had some business to take care of there, and I told him to wait off for a while, just until I could stay with Mimi…" She said looking at the ground. Her eyes welled up with tears.
"I told him, just one day, one short little day…. Of course he didn't listen. Sure, he took her with him so she didn't get eaten by a Persian, but when they where way up on the rocks… I guess she was trying to keep up or trying to get around something… her front legs weren't strong enough to support her weight…" She said pausing suddenly. Her shoulders shook as she held back a sob.
"She plummeted over three hundred feet, straight to her death." I was at a loss for words. Bullet had never been so serious before.
"What… did your brother do for her?" I found myself asking. Her tears dropped on the soil below, making salty muddle puddles.
"I know there wasn't much he could do, but he just left her there as if she was some stranger…. No you don't even do that to total strangers, let alone family." She said as more tears fell to the earth below. Half of me wanted to feel sorry for her, maybe even cry with her and the other half wanted to slap her silly and tell her that the past was in the past. My emotions where split, and I wasn't sure which ones to act upon. Then all of a sudden, I did something unthinkable. Something I may never be able to forgive myself for, I hugged her. I don't know what in HELL I was thinking, but I HUGGED her. It was the most disgusting, wondrous, putrid, amazing, nauseatingly warm things I've ever felt in my life. I didn't know if I liked it or if I wanted to throw up. When I released her, her cheeks where tinted pink.
"Entei?"
"Look, just SHUT UP with the comments! I was just, feeling a little funny. Now, after your little sob story I actually started to feel sort of bad for Arceus and…. Look We're going to make sure Arceus's okay. Okay?" I growled back at her. Her eyes came back to life at my words.
"Really? Oh this is going to be great! You an me, saving the world together, you know I always knew you could be a hero Entei. You could be a super hero, since you already got the cape thing goin, and the little mask. You'd make quite a handsome super hero, maybe more handsome then that Superman or Batman… well maybe not Batman but really, you could…" and she was off, babbling about only Arceus knows what. Though she was an enormous pain in the ass, it was better to have a chipper Bullet then an annoying depressed one with a hug magnet in her body. Hugging Bullet was the creepiest thing I have ever done… period.
Bark's POV
I yawned and lifted myself from the ground. Suicune still wasn't back from last night. I expected him to be back by now, maybe it wasn't so smart for me to leave him. I desperate attempted to wake up Quil
"Hey Quil, wake up!" Quil rolled over and growled slightly, I nudged him again.
"Wake up!" I whispered nudging him again. This time I managed to wake him up. He rubbed his eyes with his paws and sat up.
"Arceus all mighty, Bark do you have any idea what time it is?"
"No, but there's something I uhhhh…. Need to tell you…" I said dreading what came next. Not only would I have to tell Quil about last night, I'd have to tell him that I left Suicune alone all night long!
"Well, Suicune ran off last night and…."
"What the hell did he do that for?" He said in a growchy tone of voice. I sighed.
"Well… I did sort of… get a little intimate with him last night…" I said drawing rings in the soil with my paw. I could tell my face was turning red, even through my fur. This had to be the most embarrassing thing I had to talk to Quil about. I could almost feel him staring at me.
"Way to go Bark! So how intimate are we talking? Are we talking a little fore play or the whole shebang?"
"I just did the thing that humans do with the sucking and…"
"That's called oral, Bark." He said cutting me off. I waved my paw at him to dismiss the subject.
"Look, who cares what it's called? The fact is, Suicune is missing. He could be anywhere, or worse, he could be hurt! Come on, get up we gotta do something!" I cried scrambling back the way I came. When I noticed that Quil wasn't fallowing me, I darted back.
"What the hell are you waiting for? Come on lets go!" I growled tugging him from the ground. He shook his paw loose from my grasp.
"Look, Bark, if you panic nothing ever gets done right. You just have to remain calm."
"Hey, what happened?" Cresselia said. She seemed to be just waking up.
"Well… we have a little emergency. Suicune's lost out there in the wilderness with your friend Darkrai acting all crazy and…"
"Oh my gosh, Darkai's going to kill him!" She shouted suddenly. Everyone was a wake by now, and it wasn't exactly what I'd call order. Quil attempted to get everyone together.
"Hey, HEY everyone! If you freak now, you'll never fine Suicune. We have to do this with some order!"
"You know, for once you're actually right." Cresselia said.
"We do have to do this in a more calm manor." She concluded as order began to restore itself. Good thing too, if anything happens to Suicune… it'd be all my fault.
Entei's POV
I hauled myself over the rocky ledges of Mt. Olympus. Something wasn't at all right, and I think Bullet could sense it too. I leapt from one edge to another with Bullet close behind. She wasn't exactly climbing material, but she was doing alright. As I scaled another wall, I felt an odd trembling in the earth beneath me. I'm not sure if it was an attack or an earthquake. I turned Bullet.
"Did you feel that?" I asked. The trembling proceeded, growing slightly stronger by the second. Then, there was nothing. There was an awkward silence, no birds chirped and no wind blew. Up here that was incredible odd, since it was always windy. There could only be one explanation for this, something had happened to Suicune.
"There's no wind. Something's wrong with Suicune… but what about the birds?"
"I think something might be wrong with Arceus." She said looking up to the mountains peak. I gritted my teeth and continued towards the top with frightening speed. When I reached the top, it was there again. The giant ship was here at the mountain. Lugia and Arceus where attempting to fight it off, but so far nothing was happening. My uncle let loose another Hydropump, but it didn't leave a scratch on the ship.
"What do we do now, Arceus." He said turning to the god for help, however I'm not sure if even Arceus had the answer. Just then, there was a deafening explosion. A missal of some was coming right for them, but it didn't hit Arceus as everyone expected. It went for Lugia, the weaker of the two. The giant weapon overpowered him with force and left him immobilized by pain. Lugia tried to lift himself from the ground, but failed.
"Get up, Lugia!" Arceus growled in an attempt to get Lugia from the ground. He nudged him slightly, helping him to his feet. Now wasn't the time to be knocked out cold.
When nobody was looking, a Pokeball of some sort emerged from the monstrous ship, it was black on the top, but it wasn't an Ultra Ball. It clicked open, and caused Lugia to disappear in an ominous red light. It floated back to the ship, as if it where drawn by a magnet. Instinctively I sprang into action, seizing the black Pokeball with my teeth. With all my might, I pulled against the invisible force, but it was like playing tug-a-war with Suicune, Raikou, Palkia, Garatina and Groudon. Impossible. My body trembled as it was overcome by the unseen power. The Pokeball was pried from my teeth without a single mark on it.
"No! You can't have Lugia!" I growled reaching for the Pokeball again. There was no way I was going to let those pathetic humans have my favorite uncle. With my lath one final attempt, I tried to grab the Pokeball in midair. The Pokeball slipped right through my paws before disappearing into a slot on the ship. Arceus tried one last attack, firing a hyperbeam at the ship. The attack was unbelievable powerful and it would've incinerated everything else. However, the ship escaped without a scratch on it.
YAY, I'M BACK! I started out kinda short so I can get back into the swing of thins, anyhow reveiw please! ;D
