In this chapter my two favourite legendaries are banding together and another one of my favourite Pokémon shows up in this chapter.
Chapter 2
Lugia's POV
It was a week after Mew's warning and I awoke to hear Zaptos screeching in the air, as if in pain. Something was wrong. I swam out of my cave, formed my whirlpool around me and burst to the surface. It exploded around me when I was above the water and fell back to the ocean.
I saw Zaptos in a cage, struggling to get free. Slowking being held back by a Feraligater and a man standing by the alter. The yellow stone in his hand, he looked like the chosen one but he looked well... evil. He threw a Pokéball into the air when he saw me and a Pokémon flew out of it. It was a Skarmory; it came at me so fast I barely had time to think. It attacked me with Steelwing and then I think Aerial Ace and I was winded. Then it came at me with another attack before I could prepare myself to launch an attack at it and it knocked me back into the ocean.
The next thing I knew the waves were wafting around me and I was laying on a sandy beach, I was sore all over. Out of nowhere there was the sound of feet on the san d in front of me. I looked up and saw a blue Pokémon walking towards me. On the sides of its body were three white diamond shapes running across its body and two down its legs. It had a long purple mane that flowed from a crystal thing on it head and it had two ribbon like tails. It took me a moment to realise who it was. It was Suicune, the spirit of the Northwind. As he drew closer I saw that he had a slight limp to his walk.
"Hey, are you okay?" He asked me.
"I'm fine, what about you?" I said, acknowledging his limping.
He shrugged "I'm okay. I drove off that guy after I saw you get attacked, but he got away with the yellow stone."
I grimaced "That's not good."
Suicune looked at me with a puzzled expression.
"If those stones get into the wrong hands, then the three birds are under the person's control. But not completely they can break free of the control but still that's not good. What about Zaptos, did he get free?"
"I'm so sorry." He whispered "I didn't get to him in time."
"What about Moltres and Articuno?" I asked.
"That guy tried to get the other stones but that's where I intervened."
"He'll be back though." I murmured "Why are you this far out?"
Sadness filled Suicune's eyes. "I was driven away from my home."
"What? By who?"
"Entei and Raikou."
I was astounded and all I could manage was one simple word, "Why?"
"I don't know, I think they were trying to capture me. Because there was this voice telling them to. They attacked me; they've never done that before. And I saw a man standing up in the trees. I think he might have been controlling them somehow."
"What Mew told me of is coming true." I said
"I know, I got warned too. I thought I might come see you because you're the guardian of the sea and your one of the wisest Pokémon I know. So what do you think we should do?"
"I'm not to sure. So much for being wise." I sighed.
Suicune laughed "How about we go see Professor Oak?"
"He's still alive?" I asked astounded again.
"Yeah, he's very old now, but he might know what's going on." And with that he bounded off.
And I took to the air and followed him. He's fast, I thought as he ran below me.
Suicune's POV
I couldn't help looking around me as I ran, I couldn't help being afraid that Entei and Raikou would catch up with me. I glanced up as I heard Lugia's wing beats becoming fainter; he had flown higher up into the clouds. He must have spotted something coming our way. I looked back at the road, seeing nothing I continued running. I was soon passing through a small forest and I suddenly froze in my tracks. I saw three dog Pokémon coming along the road. I didn't want to take chances and I leapt into the bushes on the side of the road. By now the three dogs were running and when they came within a couple of meters away from me I saw what they were. An Arcanine, a Houndoom and a Mightyena. I had never seen these three Pokémon work together before, wild ones anyway so they must be tame. They prowled around where I had just been standing, it seemed like they were searching for something. Then the Houndoom lifted its head and howled and the others joined in and they ran off along the road, still howling. I was about to come out of my hiding place when I was certain they were gone only to leap back in again. There was the sound of flapping wings; I stayed in my hiding place even though it could have been Lugia. A big shadow fell across the road as a large dragon Pokémon flew across the sun. It was a Salamence. As quickly as it appeared it disappeared. It then was quiet. Lugia the landed on the road and I came out from my hiding place.
"There was a man on the Salamence's back." Lugia said "He looked like the one you drove away the other day. And those dogs caught your scent." He added grimly.
Then it dawned on me, those dogs were a hunting party.
"They are trying to track us." My words came out in a rush.
Lugia nodded, "We'll have to be more careful." And he took to the air and I continued to run.
It didn't take me long to get to the other side of the forest. As I did I thought I heard a familiar cry. It sounded like Celebi, but I didn't stop to check. As I reached the end of the trees something slammed into me and I was rammed into a tree. I looked up and saw a Pokémon surrounded by an attack that I recognized as Safeguard. It was Celebi, he never left his forest. Why was he here? But this wasn't the Celebi I remembered, all the happiness was gone and he had the same dull dead black gaze that Entei and Raikou had. He then flew backwards and a ball of white energy began to grow in his mouth. I wanted to move but I couldn't, I was paralysed with fear.
Suddenly Lugia flew out of the clouds with a roar and knocked Celebi out of the air with his tail. But that didn't stop Celebi's attack and he redirected it to hit Lugia instead. Lugia tried to dodge it but was unsuccessful and he was hit in the chest but somehow he managed to fly up into the safety of the clouds. The Celebi returned his attention to me. I saw a Shadow Ball growing in-between his small hands, and it flew towards me, then out of nowhere a glowing white ball hit the Shadow ball and they exploded in a cloud of smoke, As it cleared I saw a Pokémon battling Celebi.
"Run!" it shouted at me ""I'll take care of things here!"
Then I realised I could move and I bolted out of the forest.
Lugia's POV
I saw Suicune running out of the forest, he was almost a blur, I had to speed up my wing beats to keep up with him. I winced every time my wings swept through the air, my chest was aching. I tried to think of something else to keep my mind off the pain, but it didn't work. The look in Celebi's eyes scared me. I knew that Celebi would never attack Suicune like that, not unless he was being controlled. That was three legendary Pokémon now, how many more would it take?
A horrible screeching noise started in my ears, then something sliver ran into my side and even harder into my chest. As if my chest doesn't hurt enough. I thought. As it backed off I saw that it was the exact same Skarmory that had attacked me before. It tried to come at me with Agility, but I attacked it with Hydro Pump, and it was knocked out of the air and I continued flying. It was after midday before Pallet town came into view and I landed where Suicune was standing on a hill a hundred meters away from the town.
"We should wait until nightfall before we enter the town." I said.
Suicune looked at me and nodded.
How's your chest?" he teased.
I shrugged but that made my chest hurt more.
"Ouch." I groaned
"No seriously, every inch of your chest is covered in bruises and some of the skin has split open."
I looked at my chest and saw that he was right, the Skarmory must have scratched me with its claw because there was some blood.
"Celebi hit you hard with that Solarbeam, didn't he?" Suicune said.
"No, he hit me with it softly." I said sarcastically. "But I couldn't let him hit you with that attack. Since you are weak to grass Pokémon attacks, he could have knocked you out instantly. But I wasn't going to let that happen. But why didn't you attack or move out of the way?"
"I was paralysed with fear." Suicune admitted.
I laughed, "But what happened to Celebi?"
"I made my escape when a Pokémon attacked him. I didn't know what it was."
"Hmm, well I'm glad that you made it out of that forest all right because Celebi was trying to attack you. And I'm happy that I managed to hit that Skarmory." Suicune laughed, and I started humming my song. Suicune sighed as he heard my peaceful melody and laid down. And we waited for nightfall. As the moon started its ascent in the night sky, I flew up and circled the town. It was no longer small it was huge, It had huge walls surrounding it borders and I spotted Professor Oaks lab on the opposite side of the town. I flew back to Suicune.
"The only way to get into the town is the front gate; I'll meet you at his lab, but be careful. It looks like there are guards everywhere."
Suicune nodded and I leaped into the sky.
This chapter is longer then the first and I'm hoping I'll finish the third chapter soon. Please review.
