I halt and press myself gently against the outside wall of the room, feeling vibrations coursing through the earth.
The pokemon is in there, I think as the vibrations cease.
With little trouble I push the door open by way of telekinesis, or the gift of moving objects with my mind. I enter the room. Everything is dark, except for a painting on the wall. In the painting is a male who seems to be wearing what I wore to the tournament and beside him stands the pokemon that I somehow freed from the crystal. A sudden sound catches my ear and so I move over to the left just slightly but it is then that I am thrown to the floor by someone from behind. I first think that it is Santerous but it doesn't feel heavy enough to be him.
Summoning my power of aura I manage to sense that it is the pokemon that I freed earlier. I let loose a torrent of my white aura and the pokemon jumps away before he is thrown off my back.
Careful with that power, the pokemon says before I hear the door opening and then closing. It could be a danger to you later on.
He doesn't know the truth about that, I think before I leave as well.
I head back to the castle and find that once I enter Tronay comes running up to me.
"What is it?" I ask, bored by her appearance.
"Veer is missing!" She says in panic as her blue eyes lock with mine.
"What?" I question, making sure I heard right.
Behind me, unknown to the rest of us, the blue pokemon that I had freed earlier watches with interest as Tronay tells me that Veer is indeed missing and neither her nor Santerous knows how he was taken.
"This is the truth!" Tronay shouts as I keep telling her this cannot be true.
"She is right," Santerous mutters, his purple eyes looking down at the floor.
I stare into the faces of my 'family' and begin to understand that what they are saying is true. Veer is missing. Someone or something took him from me. I clench my hands into fists and my purple eyes burn will my fierce will. I shall find Veer. I will save him and crush anyone that stands in my way! The blue pokemon walks over at this point.
You wish to find your pokemon? He asks with that telepathic voice of his.
"Yes," I answer.
The pokemon chuckles at my determination, my need to find Veer and ensure that he is safe.
I will help you, the pokemon says.
"Your name?" Tronay and Santerous ask.
Lucario, the blue pokemon replies.
