Hi guys its me again. I hope you enjoy this chapter it took me awhile to write, I kept on getting stuck. It's not exactly the longest chapter but anyway enjoy.
Suicunes POV
"Oh shit." I muttered "This is not good."
I leapt forwards with long bounds, trying to ignore the pain in my side. The roaring continued and the lava was still continuing to rise. As I reached the main walkway I turned around and watched as the right walkway which I had just been on, crumbled and fell into the lava. I turned to the entrance as I saw something move. Someone was standing there: Entei. The roaring suddenly became louder and I looked down at the lava and saw a large figure emerging, Groudon. Fearing the worst I looked into his eyes and I met his piercing black gaze. I growled through my teeth, he's being controlled too. I looked back up at Entei, he was closer to me then I saw why, the piece of the walkway attached to the entrance was gone. I had no way out I was trapped. I ducked as Groudon threw a rock at my head.
"No!" Entei roared. "He is mine! He is mine," he said again, more to himself.
"So you get to have all the fun?" Groudon muttered.
Entei ignored him and walked towards me as he got closer I saw that his fur was a darker colour, the crystal was starting to fully take effect.
"Suicune, you've evaded us for long enough but you can't avoid us forever. Groudon said.
"I can try." I growled.
"You're going to be one of us. Either the easy way or the hard way." Entei growled. "You can have powers you never dreamed of."
"I would rather die."
"Looks like its going to be the hard way then Entei." Groudon sighed.
Entei opened his mouth and fire rushed towards me and water gushed out of mine. Red meet blue and I noticed something about his attack, it was a deeper red and it seemed much stronger than ever before. The two attacks went on relentlessly neither side giving up and I knew that soon my attack would soon destroy his. Then something changed. The fire suddenly surged forward, enveloping my water that fought against it. I put more power into the attack, which made more water rush out of my mouth, but the fire kept on coming as if the water wasn't there. The fire was getting closer to me and I could feel it searing heat on my nose. Then it engulfed the rest of the water and the fire hit my mouth. It felt like the inside of my mouth was on fire! Through my pain I saw Entei jump toward me and I threw up a mist around me that filled the entire cavern. I knew that Entei wouldn't be able to get to me through the mist. I had a sudden hope that because the mist restricted visibility that Entei would fall off the walkway and plummet to his death.
"Groudon!" Entei shouted.
A pair of large black eyes gleamed through the thick mist and a large hand grabbed me and hoisted me up into the air. I struggled against his hand and I howled in pain as it slowly started to crush me. The mist cleared. I looked down and saw that the walkway was just below me. Groudon growled and I looked back up and saw that he was looking at the entranceway, I looked there too but there was nothing there. Groudon was distracted so I took this as my chance. I sucked in a deep breath, wincing at the sharp pain in my side and a raging torrent of water burst forth from my mouth and hit Groudon in the side of the head. As soon as it hit him he dropped me and I lightly landed on the walkway. The next thing I saw was a flash of dark reddish-brown fur and Entei collided with me with the force of a stampede of Rhydon and my body was thrown off the walkway and before I completely fell off it Entei grabbed my two front paws with his and dug his claws in.
"Entei!" Groudon roared. "Don't you dare let go of him."
Entei growled and I yowled in pain and Entei dug his claws deeper into my paws and my blood ran down my legs and fell down into the lava below.
"Entei please, I can help you." I said. " You're not in your right state of mind. The dark crystal has corrupted you."
"Quiet!" Entei growled. "I've been ordered not to kill you but I can say it was an accident."
"Entei don't" I begged.
He hissed. "You said you would rather die. Besides death is a better fate than this." He then let go of my paws and I started to fall down toward the lava below. Then two echoing cries filled the cavern.
Raikou's POV
I watched Eli pace up and down in front of me. He seemed frustrated.
"What's our next course of action?" I asked him.
"I'm not sure yet." he snapped. "I have to wait for Taliqua and Mew to report back before I decide about anything."
Someone's Mr grumpy today. He must have woken up on the wrong side of bed this morning. I thought. "How long until they arrive?" I asked.
"A guard reported to see Mew on the southern horizon half an hour ago. Taliqua won't be too far behind. So they should be here soon."
Great, I didn't like either of them.
There was a sudden loud uproar from a couple of floors below.
"Raikou go check it out." Eli ordered, sitting behind his desk.
I nodded and took my leave. I was glad to be out of his presence, I had been snapped at enough today. I ran along the long corridor and bounded down the three flights of stairs. I soon arrived at the dungeon where the prisoners were kept, people who knew about the dark crystal and who wanted to destroy it were imprisoned here. It was impossible to destroy it anyway, only a legendary pokemon could destroy it with the help of-
"What have you done with her?" a mans voice roared. "Where is she?!"
I walked into the dungeon to see a man struggling against two guards. His blue eyes were wild with rage as he stared at the main guard. One guard had blood streaming from his nose; it looked like it was broken.
"If you have hurt her in anyway then I swear I will kill you." the man vowed.
I growled and my body crackled with electricity. "Enough."
The five prisoners in the room jumped and looked at me. A lady in the far corner with her Chikorita gasped. "We can understand you."
I ignored her. Ever since the dark crystal had taken control of me humans could understand every thing I said. It annoyed me to no end. And because Eli had the dark crystal, one of its powers was to let the holder understand pokespeak.
I looked at the guards. "I'll take to them. Let him go."
The guards roughly shoved the man against the wall. And they left the dungeon except for the main guard who stood at the door, uncertain if he should stay. I growled at him and he hurried out of the dungeon. I smirked, they were afraid of me and so they should be. I then turned to the prisoners.
"What's going on?" I asked them calmly.
"They took Taliqua my Absol away. And I just want to know if she is alright." The man said franticly.
I closed my eyes. I hated this, these people have had their strongest pokemon taken off them and their weakest pokemon or the ones that look weak, they've been allowed to keep with them in the dungeon. I then reopened my eyes. "Your Absol is fine."
The man sighed in relief.
There was movement in the corner and the Chikorita sitting with her trainer called out to me.
"Chikori, hush." the women said.
"You're wondering why your are in this predicament aren't you?" I asked the Chikorita, she nodded. "Its because you lot attacked out hideout and because all of you know about the dark crystal." I have to admit that how these five trainers had braved Mt Silvers weather was impressive. I took a step towards the trainers but as I did I saw out of the corner of my eye a pokemon burst forth from the shadows of the room and hurtle toward me. I snarled and leapt backwards as it whizzed past me. It turned back around and charged at me again.
"Felix! Stop!" A trainer shouted.
The pokemon skidded to a stop. It was a Cranidos, it then turned and walked back to its trainer.
I surveyed the trainers; there were three adults and two teenagers who seemed to be twins. Then I surveyed their pokemon. There was a Dratini, a Vaporeon, a Vulpix, the Cranidos and the Chikorita. As I looked at the trainers and their pokemon I recognised fear in their eyes.
"You shouldn't be afraid of me, I'm not going to hurt you."
Silence filled the room. Then the teenage boy broke it.
"What are they doing with our pokemon?" he asked.
"Some are being used to track down some pokemon we are after and the others have been given to guards without pokemon." I said.
"Will we get them back?" his sister asked.
"I don't think you will. But I strongly disagree against it." I lied down.
The prisoners stared at me then after awhile they started to talk amongst themselves. I rather like these trainers; I'll visit them often. I decided. The minutes slipped by and I slowly fell asleep.
There was a loud roar of thunder and the crack of lightning. I opened my eyes, something was not right. Smoke was filling Brass Tower. I looked at Lugia, Ho-oh, Suicune and Entei, they were still asleep. They jumped awake as I yelled their names. At that moment flames erupted in the room surrounding us. Entei, Suicune and I stood back to back as the fire advanced towards us.
"Raikou! Entei! Suicune!" Ho-oh cried.
I saw him try to get to us but a wall of fire blocked his way. There was a hissing sound as Lugia and Suicune used water to try and douse the flames but it didn't work. I cried when I saw the flames surge forward and engulf Suicune. His cries of pain filling the room.
"Suicune!" Ho-oh and Lugia cried out in anguish.
Entei was the next to fall as he tried to save Suicune from the flames.
Tears streamed down my face as I watched my two brothers dying. Flames reared up around me, ready to take me next. I looked up to the starry heavens; Lugia and Ho-Oh were up there, Lugia restraining Ho-oh.
"You can't save them. There is nothing you can do." Lugia said, tears streaming from his eyes.
Ho-oh moved his head back in forth in denial. "I must save them!"
I heard him cry out as the flames engulfed my body. I writhed in pain and I hit the floor.
"You will live again, my sons."
And Ho-oh's voice was the last thing I heard.
My eyes flew open; I was back in the dungeon. A loud cackling filled it. I leapt to my feet and whirled around, Darkrai floated before me. He wasn't being controlled, his eyes were still blue, lucky him. Darkrai had used Nightmare to make me dream the thing I most hated in my past, which I try to forget.
"Darkrai!" I roared. "I will kill you!"
"Sure you will." Darkrai sniggered. He then burst into a fit of laughter. "You should see your face." he managed to say through laughter.
I growled menacingly and jumped towards him, aiming for his head. And he disappeared into thin air, his laugh still echoing around the dungeon. I snarled, I hated him! He most enjoys making Entei; Suicune and I remember that day. The day that Brass Tower burned. When Suicune, Entei and I perished in the flames. On that day a bolt of lightning hit Brass Tower making it catch alight. It burned for three days and on the end of the third day a sudden downpour put out the raging inferno. On the morning of the fourth day, Ho-oh returned and resurrected us. And after that day we were never the same again. I came back from that memory.
"Are you alright?" One of the prisoners asked me.
"I'm fine." I then walked out of the dungeon, the guards closing the door behind me. I walked down the corridor, suddenly the floor was shaking and I could hear a roaring coming from outside. I ran up the many flights of stairs to the entrance but by the time I got up there it was already over. A girl with brown hair was being held up against the wall by the guards. There was a growl and I saw what must have been the girls Garchomp pinned down by Eli's Salamence. It was struggling to get the Salamence off it but the Salamence was too strong.
"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" Eli said, standing beside me.
"She was trying to destroy our hideout and free the other prisoners," a guard said.
"I can see that you fool." Eli hissed.
Yep, definitely woke up on the wrong side of bed.
"Lets have a look at her pokemon." Eli said.
A guard snatched the Pokeballs off her belt and released a Charizard, a Scyther, a Luxray, a Rhydon and a Croconaw.
"A very nice collection." Eli said approvingly. "Especially that Garchomp. Take her to the dungeon." he walked off, then called back over his shoulder. "Come, Raikou. Mew and Taliqua have arrived."
I moved to the side as the girl was taken by two guards down to the dungeon.
"Melody!" her pokemon shouted.
I recognised that name, but I couldn't remember where I had heard it before. I then watched as the guards released their stolen pokemon and with great difficulty escorted the girls' pokemon up the large stairs. I knew where they were being taken, to a large room where all the pokemon were kept. I turned and bounded down one flight of stairs and ran into Eli's study. Mew and the Absol; Taliqua were there.
"What's the report?" I asked them.
"Lugia is no longer travelling with Suicune." Mew said. "He's gone back to the Shamouti islands. And Suicune fell for that Ho-oh trick, hook, line and sinker."
I seethed with anger; I didn't like what Mew had done. Transforming into Ho-oh and impersonating him to trick Suicune.
"And I suppose Groudon and Entei are dealing with him now." Eli said.
"That would be my guess." Mew said.
"What about you Taliqua?" Eli asked.
"I had to deal with that damn Lucario again." she grumbled. "And he almost defeated me."
"Oh no, not him again." I said, trying to sound sympathetic but I was having a real battle within myself not to burst out laughing. Taliqua has had a lot of trouble with this Lucario. "Oh yes Eli. I've wanted to ask you, can I go after Darkrai? I desperately want his head."
"Raikou, you know the rule. No chopping off heads." Eli said disapprovingly.
"Please, let it slide just this once." I said.
"No." Eli said, his voice stern. "But your welcome to go after him if that is your wish and bring him back here. He would be good for hunting down the rest of the legendary pokemon. Let's see if you can catch him." Eli drummed his fingers against the desk. He then got up and walked over to a large glass cabinet on the side of the room where the dark crystal was kept. He placed his hand on the glass and it just seemed to melt away under his touch. It would do that only for him.
"Taliqua, go have a rest." Eli said.
The Absol left the room.
"So, what's our next course of action?" I asked.
Eli turned to me the dark crystal in his hand.
"We are going after Lugia."
10 minutes later…
I stood at the entrance watching the snowfall. Eli floated before us on his Salamence. My fellow legendary pokemon beside me.
"Today, we go after Lugia." Eli shouted. "Nothing will be able to stop us. He won't be able to escape. The guardian of the sea will be ours. Lets go!"
I could feel the ground shaking as my fellow pokemon roared and launched themselves off the mountain. Eli's Salamence veered away from Mt Silver and I jumped into the snow and began to run towards the bottom of Mt Silver. As I ran I thought I heard a haunting, beautiful song echoing from our hideout one that I recognised from a distant memory.
So that's what now chapter six for ya. I really thought that Lugia was going to be in this chap but I decided to add the bit with Raikou but for sure in the next chapter Lugia will be in there. I didn't get any reviews on chapter 5; I was disappointed with that so come on guys, please review. Please don't disappoint me again.
