A/N: Man, it feels great to be back! Anyways, since I can't figure out which Pokémon Savannah should have, this is an intermission, remember back in Chapter 19, before our heroes entered the Path of Soul? Well, how many of you noticed that Aqua wasn't in there? It was intentional so I could do this. Anyways, School is over so I'll work on this as much as I can (when I don't have a writer's cube (not block, cubes are cooler)).

Fruitless Fruit: thank you. You were right for being harsh, sometimes an author needs a firm hand to steer them in the right direction. You're unblocked.

Pure Gamer: Ok, Ok. Thank you and I've realized I should revise the first couple of chapters, wait…you know what, ok. I'll start with chapters 1-5. Frankly, I've never heard of Charles Dickenson, and I doubt I'll read any of his works in this time period. Maybe at a later date.

Chapter 24: Intermission: Aqua's Day off

Aqua POV (duh)

Crud, I should've set an alarm. I can't believe I missed seeing daddy off. Oh well, I'll welcome him when he gets back. Hmm, what to do till then, right now I'm just sitting in bed. I think I'll start with asking Omanos when they come back. I hopped out of bed and out of the room. I walked down the hall to the Lightonos meeting room, Omanos would probably be there. I opened the giant doors and walked in, I found somebody, but not Omanos. Dark ocean blue hair, a long aqua overcoat, and a golden crown, oh Arceus. The familiar figure turned to face me; his light gold eyes looked at me with sorrow. "Aqua" he said, it was Kyro. "KYRO!" I said angrily, I charged at him, ready to attack. He put a hand in front of me, "Listen first, and then you can hit me as much as you like" he suggested. Even through my anger, I agreed.

"Thank you, I'd like to start with, I'm sorry" he said apologetically. "I'm sorry for many things I did to you, but to start, let's explain why I joined Nebrosono, which I quit, by the way" he started. "I joined, to protect you, I knew they would attack us if we didn't join them" he explained. "That seems like a stupid reason" I said angrily. "I know, I know and I thought about quitting long before, but then…" he trailed off. "What? What happened?" I asked. "That's when they implanted chips" he said gravely. "Chips so that if we did turn against them, and so I can't tell who the leader is" he explained. "But…here you are" I said confusingly. "Yes, well, after you ran away, they rejected me, they were going to kill me, but I did what you did and escaped into the sea" he explained. "The chip" I asked. "They were stupid enough to mess up and not give me a waterproof one" he said happily.

"So now you're here to help us?" I asked. "Yes, but I don't know much" he said sadly. "That's okay, I forgive you, for everything" I said forgivingly. Kyro stood in place, and shed a tear "thank you" he said quietly. "Say, do you have any idea where Omanos is?" I asked. "Oh, yes, he's down the hall, take a right" he explained. "Thank you, I must go" I said and bowed before running away. I followed the directions Kyro gave me and found myself presented with two wood doors.

I pushed them open and found a rectangular office, two bookcases on both walls, a big desk in the back with a spiny chair where Omanos sat, doing paperwork. There was also a jade green rug on the ground, and two wood chairs in front of the desk. The walls, like all the others, were white as was the ceiling which held a ceiling fan. "Ah, Aqua what is it?" Omanos asked, looking up from the papers "please have a seat". I did so, "I was wondering when daddy and mommy, and my uncles and aunt were coming home" I asked. He chuckled at my nicknames for them and said "they'll be back in a half an hour, now I must get this done, do you have any other questions? " he asked. "No, have fun with your papers!" I said leaving the office. "I'll try" he said flatly.

I closed the two wood doors and started walking the halls again. "Wonder what I should do now" I thought out loud. I found a clock on the wall; unfortunately I hate analog clocks and can't read them. I tried my best to read it "se-seven….9….4" I guessed squinting at it. "12:15" a voice said from behind me, it was a feminine voice. I turned around; it was Aurora (Suicune). Aurora has long teal, wavy hair that goes down to her back. She also had a long violet skirt with a baby blue shirt. Her eyes were a pleasant, comforting green. She was a lot taller than me; she would probably be around 20 if she were a human. "Thanks Aurora" I thanked her. "No trouble, goodbye" she said walking off.

I sighed, I felt bad for her. I mean, how would you feel if your two brothers were fighting to kill each other? It must be tearing her up inside, but Aurora's too nice a person to let it show and have people worry about her. Anyways, 12:15 that means I still have…15 minutes left. I started thinking about what I should do but suddenly I was on the ground. Somebody had tackled me and now I was on the ground, I looked at my attacker and saw my best friend and sister from when I was young, Phione. "Hey Manaphy!" she greeted, she looked kinda like me, she had the same color hair as me, except her hair was in a bun that had a hole in the back to make a ponytail. She also wore a white t-shirt and camouflage pants. She and I had the same eye color, blue-green. "My name isn't Manaphy anymore, that's my species name now" I explained. "Ditto" she said happily. "What about a pink blob?" I asked.

"No, no I mean same here" she explained. "Really, what's your name?" I asked. "You first" she insisted. "I'm Aqua" I said proudly. "I'm Washia" she said just as proud. "That's a cool name" I complimented. "You too" she replied. "What have you been up to?" I asked. "Nothing much, though I have been ruling the ocean since both you and Kyro left" she explained. "Sorry about that" I said apologetically. "It's okay, it's just been a little tough, and luckily Kyro came back and brought me here" she explained. "That's good" I commented. "Yeah, so what have you been up to?" she asked. "Well, after escaping from Nebrosono, I've been hanging out with this very sweet person, and he's been taking care of me up till now" I explained. "Oh right! I remember both things, when Kyro attacked you for Nebrosono, and that boy, he does look nice" she commented. "Yeah, he went on the path of soul he'll be back in…" I started and looked at the clock, I froze "5 minutes" I said breathlessly. "Yeah, I know he went on the path of soul, I was at the meeting" she said "and we've gotta hurry and meet them, right?" she asked. I nodded frantically and we ran to the meeting point.

We arrived at the meeting point in about 4 minutes. We found Omanos there too, "Hi Omanos" we greeted. "Hello girls" he responded. Suddenly, a portal opened in front of Omanos, and 4 bodies poured out; my daddy, my mommy, my uncles, and my aunt. And… they were all unconscious. I squatted down and started poking daddy in the forehead "daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy" I repeated, continuously poking him. I knew he wasn't dead, he was still breathing. I guess we'd just have to wait for them to wake up. Or, Washia and Omanos would have to wait, I continued to poke daddy.

To be continued in chapter 26…

A/N: Pokemon Conquest will be out next week, look for it in stores June 20th. In other news, did you notice how I put what Pokémon it was next the character's name? I'm gonna do that every time I introduce a new member to Lightonos or Nebrosono.

Pure Gamer: do you have any specific chapters I should do, or should I just do all of them up to 19?

Also, sorry I didn't post this earlier, I finished it a week ago but the internet was down. Also, my Anonymous Reviewer is on, so anybody can review, I want more people to review my story than Pure Gamer (not that I don't love your reviews) and I hope this will help, but if nobody new reviews, I'm fine with that too. Anyways, sign us out Washia.

Washia: Bye bye!
