Here is chapter two. I hope everyone is enjoying the story so far! :)
"Would you cut that out? Seriously, you guys are enough to gag a Weedle!" Zapdos groaned a she watched Moltres rub her head against Ho-oh's chest affectionately. To emphasize her point she made a gagging noise, turned around, and pretended to hurl.
Moltres only gave a soft laugh in response. "Why should I cut it out? I'm just expressing how much I love him," she said with a smile before rubbing the top of her beak against the bottom of Ho-oh's beak.
Ho-oh smiled and nodded. "Yep," he replied simply, returning Moltres' nuzzles.
"I think its kinda cute," Lugia said, smiling at the couple. Articuno nodded in agreement with him.
Zapdos sighed. "I'm surrounded by mushy-gushy morons," she said as she rolled her eyes. "I'll see you saps later. I'm gonna go talk to Giratina and Ray," she said as she walked over to the dragon buddies.
"Hey Zapdos! How ya doin girl?" Rayquaza called when he saw her coming.
She grinned. "Good, now that I'm away from the literal love birds," she said, pointing one of her short, spiky wings toward the phoenixes.
Rayquaza looked at the couple and laughed. "Yeah, I'm not a fan of PDA either. But try putting up with an idiot who is head over heels in love with a girl who only loves him back in his dreams," he said, motioning toward Giratina with her spiky, yellow head.
Giratina cocked an eyebrow and frowned. "Hey, one of these days she is going to love me back," he said.
"Yeah, the same day that Hell freezes over, Celebi burns down the forest on purpose, Cresselia turns down Cascada tickets, Suicune ignores an oil spill, and Darkrai dyes his hair pink," Zapdos laughed.
"You better eat a Rawst Berry because you just got buuuurrrrrnnned!" Rayquaza crowed as he slapped one of his small, emerald hands against Zapdos' wing, their form of a high five.
"Hahaha, you're a comedic genius," Giratina said sarcastically, only earning more laughs from the ozone dragon and the thunder hawk.
-ooo-
"Mew, did you have any pixie sticks this morning?" Azelf asked, pretty much already knowing the answer.
"Yeah! And it was really, really, really good! So I ate three more! Then I ate a bag of cookies! Is it just me or it the room shaking?" she replied hyperly, twitching a little.
"The room isn't shaking, Mew. You're head is twitching, just like your tail, your arms, and your legs," Mesprit replied. "I think you had way too much sugar."
"No I didn't!" Mew exclaimed.
"Yes you did," Azelf, Mesprit, Celebi, Manaphy and Shaymin said in unison.
"FUDGE YOU!! You guys have no idea what you're talking about! I am positively certain that my sugar levels are perfectly... HIYA MEWTWO!!" she ranted, not bothering to finish her sentence and flying off toward her clone.
After she was out of earshot, Azelf turned to them and said "I worry about her sometimes."
"So do the rest of us," Manaphy laughed.
"Hey, Shay, there's your boooyfriend," Celebi said, pointing at Uxie who was flying in with Regigigas.
"Yeah, and there's yours," Shaymin replied with a smirk as Jirachi rode in on Groudon's head.
"He's not my boyfriend!" Celebi wailed in a panicy, ambarrased voice as her face started heating up.
"Suuuuurrrrree he isn't," the flower hedgehog said with a light laugh as she went to greet the pixie she loved, leaving her best friend floating there with a face as red as a Cheri Berry.
-ooo-
"Hi, little brother! How are ya doing? Have you stopped being such a serious pain in the butt and learned to have fun yet?" Mew asked excitedly as she flew over to Mewtwo, stood on his shoulders and messed up the light, grayish indigo fur on his head with her small, light pink paws.
"Mew, get off my shoulders and stop playing with my fur. And for the love of everything good and decent in the world, would you stop calling me that?! I'm your clone, not your brother," Mewtwo replied.
"Awwww, but i like calling you brother! That reminds me, if you're a clone of me, how come you're not a girl, like me? We have the same DNA, right? So why the heck do you look so different and have a different gender?" she pondered in a hyper voice as she moved to up to sit on his head.
"I don't know. The scientists modified my DNA structure so that may be the reason. Now get off my head or I'm going to break all the toys that you have stored in the Tree of Life," he replied, trying to remain calm and not break the pink, hyper kitten's neck.
"You're no fun," she whined as she got off his head.
"What else is new?" Darkrai asked sarcastically as he floated over to them.
"Great! Now Mr. Grumpy Ghost is here! I'll leave you two and your negativity here. I'm gonna go play with Raikou, at least HE knows how to play with a ball of yarn like a REAL cat!" she said as she floated off to find the thunder tiger.
"Good riddance," Darkrai muttered sarcastically.
Mew turned and stuck her tong out at him before spotting Raikou and zooming off to play.
-ooo-
"Dialga! We didn't even eat breakfast! I'm starving!" Palkia whined as they entered the Hall of Origin.
Dialga sighed in exasperation. "Palkia, Arceus banned food at meetings that don't take place in the early morning after the food fighting incidents, but this is early morning and she knows we're starving so there will probably be food there."
Palkia's eyes widened and he ran off to find food.
Dialga stopped in her tracks. "Oh crap! What have I done?!" she said to herself as she ran to catch up with her counterpart before he could destroy anything.
The mauve dragon skidded to a stop when he found the food. Dialga showed up soon afterward. Just in time too. He was shoving food into his mouth, plates and all, at rapid speed. He was going to hurt himself if he kept it up.
She groaned, grabbed his tail with her mouth, and dragged him away from the table. "I think you've had enough," she told him, her words being distorted a bit by his tail.
-ooo-
"Attention everyone," Arceus called out from her platform. Unfortunately, nobody heard her over the chatter of 32 legendaries. "I said, attention!" she tried again, still not being heard.
"EVERYONE SHUT THE HELL UP!! MY GIRL WANTS TO SAY SOMETHING!!" Giratina bellowed, gaining the attention of everyone.
"Giratina, I am not, nor will I ever be, your girl," Arceus said with a look of pure annoyance on her face.
"That's what YOU think," Giratina replied with a smile and a wink.
Arceus rolled her eyes, her face never breaking its 'annoyed' status. She turned her attention back to the legendaries. "I've called you all here for a very important reason. We've had a lot of close calls recently, as well as the tragic loss of Latios," she said.
Latias' eyes automatically filled with tears at the mention of her beloved brother's name. Suicune and Cresselia were automatically at her side, hugging her and trying to comfort her any way they could.
Arceus moved onto the next part of her little speech. "I've decided that we cannot afford the loss of any legendaries. But since there is no way to insure that you will live forever, I had an idea to make sure that no job is left without someone to take it. You will each be given an apprentice to train to take over your job should something happen to you."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute! What exactly do you mean bu an 'apprentice'?" Darkrai called out.
"An apprentice is somebody being trained to take over a special job. In your cases, you will each be given a baby of whatever you are. For example, you would get a baby Darkrai," Arceus replied.
"So basically, you're forcing us to be parents?! Don't we even have any say in this?!" he exclaimed as the other legendaries in the crowd started asking questions as well.
"Are you getting one too?" Dialga inquired.
"What about me? I am man made and I don't even have a specific job. Do I still have to get one?" Mewtwo questioned, looking as though he was standing on the fine line between calm and panicked.
"How old is that Team Rocket dude who always wears that stupid looking orange suit?!" Mew called out randomly, earning stares from her fellow legendaries.
"What?" she asked sheepishly.
The others rolled their eyes and returned their attention to their white, black, and gold leader.
"Darkrai, the answers to your questions are yes to the first one and no to the second one. Dialga, yes, of course I'm getting one as well. Mewtwo, yes, you are also receiving an apprentice. Your power is a great benefit to us and it would be a big loss if we lost you," Arceus replied to their questions.
"But that isn't right!" growled Darkrai.
"Yes it is. You all need one. They are necesities," she said.
Darkrai ran one of his obsidian hands through his albino hair. "Look, I just need to know... are you sure you are not drunk, high, or menstrual?"
Arceus gave him and angry and annoyed glare. "No."
Darkrai went on, ignoring the fact that Arceus was probably about to kill him. "Well then, have you suffered a recent head injury?"
Arceus started charging up for a Judgement attack.
Darkrai's eyes widened before escaping into the floor seconds before being hit and probably killed. "Point taken," he grumbled as he came back up.
"Now everybody line up. You will now be given your future apprentice," Arceus said as Liberty, one of the Pidgeots, brought in a large wagon. She was followed by Cloud, another Pidgeot who was also pulling in a wagon.
"Future apprentice? What does that mean?" Cresselia asked.
"You will be receiving an egg that your apprentice will hatch from. Oh, and don't worry about incubation. They are already in incubators," Arceus replied.
"No. Fucking. Way," Darkrai said.
Arceus ignored him and passed out the one of a kind eggs containing the future legendaries.
Well, there was chapter two. Please review! (Teehee, rhymey words)
