Here is chapter three my readers. I'm glad that I've finished this chapter; I found it hard to write in some places. In this chapter two things are revealed and the mysterious Pokémon shows again. Enjoy!

Chapter three.

Suicune's POV

I watched Lugia take off into the air and fly to the other side of the town and I was alone. I started walking towards the town, away from the main road, not wanting to be seen. I then delete quickly ran over to the stone wall surrounding the town near the front gate. I realized I'd have to get in fast before the guards spotted me. When the gate was clear of guards I bolted through the gate and into an alley. I sighed in relief as I saw that none of the guards had noticed me and I looked around. I saw a brightly lit square with a fountain in the middle. It looked like there was a celebration going on; people were dancing around the square. Lugia didn't warm me of this. As I walked deeper into the alley, I could see the celebration going on through the spaces in the houses that I passed. And delete I wasn't really watching where I was going.

I froze as I heard a voice.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" said a guard came out of the shadows, holding a flashlight.

"A Pokémon intent on ruining the celebration and peace," another guard said, sneering. "The peace and celebration of having no wild Pokémon in the town for twenty years."

It seems quite a coincidence that Suicune walks in at the exact moment of the celebration. That's not necessarily bad, but it's best not to rely on something so farfetched. Of course, if you eventually show that the celebration is causally linked to the events leading up to Suicune's presence in town at the same time, then that's quite OK.

The other guard sighed and nodded. "Time to take out the trash. It's a shame we have to get rid of something so beautiful."

I looked around, panicking, join sentences but there was no escape; there were walls on both sides of me. The first guard reached for a Pokéball on his belt. I felt a growl my chest as I pounced on him and clamped my jaws around his arm. I dug my teeth into his flesh and with all my strength and threw him against the wall. I blasted the other guard with a Bubblebeam as he reached for one of his Pokéballs, and he too was knocked out as his head collided with the wall. I could taste the guard's blood in my mouth and I spat it out.

I ran through the backstreets of Pallet Town. It seemed to take forever to reach the other side of the large town and finally I reached the lawn in front of the huge lab. Lugia was waiting for me, he appeared to be anxious.

"Could you take any longer?" he asked me.

"I don't have wings, I can't fly." I grumbled.

He laughed. "No you don't. So why do you have blood in you teeth?"

"I attacked some guards."

"I told you to watch out for them." He said.

"I know but why didn't you tell me there was a celebration going on?"

"Well, I wanted to see how long it would take you to get through the town."

"So then you shouldn't complain about how long it took me to get through the town." I said. "I guess we shouldn't keep the Professor waiting any longer. We'll probably give him a heart attack."

We walked up to the door and Lugia knocked. It didn't take long for somebody to answer. A white-haired man stood in the doorway. It was Professor Oak. He gasped when he saw us and clutched at his heart.

"Oh my..." he said, searching for words. "What... what do you two need?"

"Something strange has been going on with some of the legendary Pokémon," Lugia said calmly, "and we hoped that you might know something."

"Okay then, come in." I followed Professor Oak in and I turned back to Lugia who was trying to get through the door but his size wouldn't allow it. Professor Oak pushed a button and the roof opened up to the skies, revealing the stars. "You can get in an easier way you know?" he said.

"I think I can get through this door." Lugia said through gritted teeth, still struggling to get through the door. I couldn't help but laugh and he snarled at me. At one stage I don't know how he managed it but with his wings folded he managed to get his shoulders through the doorframe. He struggled to get through the door and then he tried to back out of it but he hardly moved.

"I'm stuck." He said, bowing his head. And that made me laugh harder. "Stop laughing and come over here and help me." Still giggling I walked over to him and placed my paws on his chest and pushed. "Ow," he complained.

After a few minutes of pushing he slid free of the doorframe and disappeared around the side. A few seconds later he flew through the open roof and landed in the middle of the room. Professor Oak led us through his lab and towards another room at the end of the lab. "Oh no." Lugia groaned. "Not another door."

Professor Oak smiled, pushed another button and the big iron doors slid open. Thankfully Lugia could enter the room with ease. As we entered the room he closed the doors and gestured for us to sit. At the end of the room was a TV, a laptop on a computer desk and two large lounges in the middle of the room separated by a coffee table. Lugia sat on one of the lounges with his tail draped on the armrest and it creaked a little and sunk to the floor. Surprisingly his weight didn't break it so I jumped lightly up on the same lounge and laid down. The professor went out the door and returned a couple of minutes later and sat on the opposite lounge.

"So what's going on?" he asked us.

"A week ago Suicune was attacked by Entei and Raikou and Celebi attacked us today. We think that they are being controlled somehow. And a couple of days ago a guy got a hold of the yellow stone and the guy looked like Ash—"

"But Ash is in a different region." Professor Oak said.

"He's alive? But I heard that he was killed," said Lugia.

"Suicune hasn't told you?" he said, looking at me.

Lugia too looked at me. "What haven't you told me?"

"I saved Ash from dying, I found him close to death and I rushed him to a Pokémon center." I said.

"So this guy, he looked like Ash?" said Oak.

"Yeah, he did but he looked different."

Professor Oak sighed and walked over to a drawer, pulled something out and walked back over to us. He showed us a photo, two boys stood there in front of the lab, arm in arm. They had the same colour hair and both looked almost alike. The only difference was that one was older and had green eyes.

"Ash has an older brother named Eli. He ran away from home when he was fourteen and when Ash was ten and we didn't hear from him again."

"So that's who I saw then," Lugia said.

"What's this celebration about?" I asked, Lugia translated it for me.

"Its about having no wild Pokémon entering the city and wreaking havoc. That's the reason those walls were built because we kept on getting attacked by wild Pokémon," Professor Oak explained. "I just can't help but wonder if it was just a coincidence that you arrived on the night of the celebration."

"So that's why those guards wanted to get rid of me," I muttered.

At that moment Professor Oak's lab assistant entered the room, carrying two bowls of Pokésnacks and a cup of tea. She put them down on the table and left.

"Eat," comma Professor Oak said. "You both look hungry." He walked over to his laptop and started it up, and we began to eat. "I think I might have something about what you were saying about legendary Pokémon being controlled. I think it could be in some scientific records." He was silent for a few minutes and then he said, "Was there anything wrong with their eyes?"

"Yes." Lugia said. "They had a dead dull look to them and they were black."

"This is it," he muttered and he printed off a copy and sat down on the lounge and read it to us: "The dark crystal is a crystal so powerful, that it can control legendary Pokémon. What has to happen is it's got to touch the Pokémon and they will be under the complete control of whoever holds it. It turns the Pokémon's eyes black and makes them dead and dull. And if the Pokémon has been under its control for a long period of time, it turns their skin or fur black. It was created by a scientist along with his dark Pokémon hundreds of years ago, and he was horrified to discover what he had created and hid it away deep within some mountains. After he hid it he wrote a document about it. Soon after he died and another scientist discovered the document and sent it out to other scientist so they would know the signs if it was found and the document was classified as 'top secret'"

"Can the crystal be destroyed?" Lugia asked.

Professor Oak scanned the page. "Only by a legendary Pokémon."

"Thank you," Lugia said.

****

We were standing outside the lab.

"You two be careful," Professor Oak said. "Suicune, those guards can tell if you're a wild Pokémon or not, because tame Pokémon in this town have a red strap around their leg. So watch out for the guards."

I nodded and Lugia took to the air and I ran off. Once again I ran through the backstreets of the town and I slowed my pace as I neared the square. The celebrations were still going.

Suddenly I was knocked into a wall. When I came to my senses, I looked up and saw that I was surrounded by Pokémon—an Umbreon, a Murkrow, a Sneasel, a Houndour and a Poochyena, and they had red straps around their legs. All dark Pokémon and all were growling except for the Murkrow which was squawking.

"If you don't get out of this town now then we will have no other choice then to hurt you," the Umbreon growled.

"And we'll show no mercy," said the Sneasel.

"We're the dark Pokémon gang of this town and we protect it from intruders such as yourself." The Houndour sneered.

A voice came out of the shadows. "Well, you haven't done good because three wild Pokémon have entered your town tonight and you haven't stopped us."

The gang looked into the shadows. In the moonlight I saw a Pokémon leaning casually against a wall. It was blue, black and it had a yellow torso and red eyes. It had a spike poking from the middle of its chest and a spike on the back of each of its front paws.

"And what are you exactly?' the Umbreon sneered.

The Pokémon smiled. "I am a very rare Pokémon but the one standing in front of you is extremely rare and if you hurt him then I'll hurt you."

I then recognised this Pokémon; he was the one that had saved me from Celebi's attack in the forest. But I didn't know what he was; I had never seen a Pokémon like him before. The Umbreon looked at the Houndour and Poochyena and inclined its head and they both walked past me, snapping their jaws at me as they went past, and planting themselves behind me. The blue Pokémon's eyes narrowed and two balls of energy blasted from his paws and hit the Houndour and Poochyena. The Sneasel darted at him and tried to slash him with its claws but he caught its arm with his teeth and tossed it against the wall. The Umbreon walked towards him and the Murkrow swooped down on him from above.

"Get out of here!" he shouted at me. "The guards are coming!" I saw the Sneasel get up and try to attack him from behind. I growled and tackled it to the ground. I heard the wild Pokémon cry out in pain as the Umbreon attacked him with Nightshade, but he punched the Umbreon into a wall. I saw the Murkrow was about to swoop so I blasted it out of the air with a Bubblebeam.

"Get out of here!" he growled through his teeth at me. "There's no need to worry about me." There was a groan and the Umbreon started to get up. He shot it with a ball of energy from his paw; he then turned and faced down into the dark alley. "Get out of here, now!"

As I looked down the alley I could see figures moving towards us: guards. And the Pokémon darted forwards, his paws already glowing with energy.

I turned in the opposite direction and dashed down the alley. I blasted the Sneasel with a Bubblebeam as it jumped in front of my path. I didn't check for guards as I ran out of the town. Finally I stopped at the hill a hundred meters away from the town. I glanced up as I heard wings. Lugia was circling above me.

I looked back at the town and thought I saw a Pokémon running away. Then I heard alarm bells ringing from the town. And I turned and ran with Lugia following above me.

AN: So that chapters done and I hope to get through the next chapter, I had to update this chapter, mainly about how Lugia entered the lab. It might be the fourth or fifth chapter that Lugia and Suicune will be paying a visit to someone. Anyway please review.
