"What do you mean?" Madison said as she sat down on the couch. "You used to be a part of those scum?!"
"Yes.", Krestner said as grabbed his bag off the ground. "That's where I left this." He turned to leave, but was stopped by an enraged Selena.
"THAT'S IT! ALL WE GET IS A 'YES'! OF ALL THE ROTTEN UNDERHANDED DIRTY DISGUSTING THINGS TO DO THIS IS THE LOWEST! NOW YOU SIT DOWN AND YOU EXPLAIN TO US WHAT YOU'RE NOT TELLING US!" Krestner didn't even flinch.
"Hey Reggie, it's okay if they stay here, right?"
"Sure."
"So yea you guys stay here and chill. Reggie normally hides the chocolate cookies in the top cupboards and he has everything you guys need to relax so now if you'll excuse me I've got some business to take care of." Selena grabbed Krestner's arms and held them behind his back.
"Like I said, you're not going anywhere until you explain everything to us."
"That's a very bad..." Krestner's eyes began to glow and a large wind whipped up blowing out the door and throwing Selena back into a wall. Krestner walked out the open passageway into the night where he took flight and was gone. "...idea. Great now he's ruined my door."
"What the hell was that?" Madison said as she helped Selena up.
"Hmm...he's seemed to have mastered Whirlwind direction... oh.. He doesn't like feeling held down."
"Well maybe you can explain to us what we want to know."
"Okay then but you'll have to help me fix this door." Reggie said.
"Selena you stay and help, I'm gonna go get Kaitlyn." Madison ran off into the night. Ghost, who'd been left behind, tried to sneak out after her but was stopped by an equally angry Artik.
Ok calm down. Ghost edged backwards and teleported out.
Veilstone Galactic Building
Krestner Stratos landed on the tree from yesterday. Ghost teleported in on the branch just above Krestner and wobbled a little. "You're getting worse Ghost. It's time you take the Somnium."
No, I can go a little longer.
"Really. Krestner shoved a syringe into Ghost's leg and then returned him. "I'm the medical expert here." Krestner scaled the rest of the tree and launched himself from the top, landing squarely on the wall of the large imposing building. He used a small laser to put a hole into a window and slowly crawled inside. He crawled along the walls like a spider, avoiding cameras and sensors he could tell were hidden. Several Grunts walked by and he crawled into the shadows waiting.
"Commander Mars says we should guard the old Venus Laboratory until further notice."
"Really? That place always gave me the creeps even when it was still in use. But I suppose if she says it then it should be done." They walked off as they began to talk about smoothies. Krestner smiled. The Boss was smart, but he was smarter. He didn't hide what he was looking for in the Venus Lab. Krestner had hid the item in the most secure place in the entire building: The Boss's Office. He crawled along the ceiling to the Venus Lab. He decided since they expected him there, he might as well show up.
Reggie's House
"OK what do you guys want to know first about the mystery of Krestner Stratos?" Reggie said with his door finally reattached and Madison and Kaitlyn sitting nearby.
"First, we wann...." Madison started before being interrupted.
"Why does Giratina hate him?"
"Well that happens later. Before I tell you that you have to tell me how you know about Giratina."
"He attacked. Now tell me what we want to know." Selena said with a voice bordering on anger.
"Ok, but to explain Giratina I'd have to explain "The Day"
"What's 'The Day'?"
"The day Krestner's world fell apart."
-Flashback-
Krestner Stratos stood on a cliff overlooking the Eterna Galactic Building and smiled. It would be a piece of cake to get in there and get some food. He was so hungry. He turned around and walked down the hill still smiling. A couple of seconds later he was on his bike flying through the sky. The bike landed on the roof. Krestner landed on a satellite dish several feet away from the bike.
"Ow, I'll never do that again." Krestner rolled himself out of the satellite dish and found a door leading into the rest of the building. He crept along the wall moving slowly and carefully, trying slowly to find the cafeteria. Following the signs on the wall he came to a set of doors. He looked inside. Satisfying himself that nobody else was there, he slipped inside slowly and without a sound slipped a whole bunch of food into his bag. He was about to get away when...
Reggie stopped in the middle of his narrative to go feed his pokémon charges. Selena almost lost it right there, but contained herself.
"You gonna tell us what happened next?
"Actually, Reggie's going to shut his mouth before he says something else that borders on treason." A man wearing a blue suit and matching hat walked into the room. He had a necklace that was slowly glowing and a Lucario at his side. "Reggie, you know better than to quote anything fro Krestner's file. It was placed 30 levels above top secret for a reason."
"Well, if it isn't Riley, the man who started this whole mess to begin with." Reggie reached for a Poké Ball, but an Aura Sphere from Lucario stopped him cold.
"Don't make another move, Reggie or else..." The door burst open all of a sudden and Krestner came in clothes falling apart and bruises all over his body. "Well how are you today Krestner?" Krestner eyes glowed brightly for a second and then changed back to their natural brown.
"Hey, Boss. What's up?" Lucario shot another Aura Sphere that Krestner stopped with an open palm and dissolved it with his mind. "Well that doesn't seem very nice. Not very nice at all. I just assault an entire Galactic Base, and bring back so much information and that's how you repay me." Krestner seemed really happy for some strange reason. It was slightly unnerving to the others in the room. "Oh and by the way I also stabilized Ghost and struck a serious blow to the amount of Grunts, Team Galactic had."
"Where the hell have you been?!" Selena yelled at Krestner. Kaitlyn noticed the tear that slid down Selena's cheek.
"Stay out of this, and you should probably duck just in case."
"What are you guys?" Reggie grabbed Selena, Madison and Kaitlyn and dragged them behind a wall.
"Trust me, you don't want to get in the middle of that. Oh and to answer you're question, they're both Aura Guardians."
