CHAPTER 3: Lilycove City

Amber's POV

Me, Ash, and Serena arrived at Lilycove City. Eevee was on my shoulders, Luna was napping on my head, and Pikachu was sitting on Ash's shoulders.

"I wonder why Arceus told us to come here, to meet these people." Serena said, Ash nodded.

"Where are we meeting these guys again?" Ash asked, I pulled out my Rotom Phone and looked at the message from Arceus.

"Arceus wrote in his message that we'll be meeting up with them at the Pokémon Center, here in Lilycove City." I said, they nodded and we started walking towards the Pokémon Center.

Frisk's POV

We just arrived at the Pokémon Center in Lilycove City.

"So, this is the place where we're suppose to meet with Arceus's champions." Sans said, I nodded.

"Yeah this is the place. I'm glad some of the Pokémon from the mansion wanted to come with us." I said, smiling at the 5 Dusk balls on my hip.

"Yeah! Nyhehehe, I'm glad that I was able to catch some on the way here. Right Brother…" Me and Papyrus looked at Sans and noticed that he was asleep with a air bubble.

I looked back at Papyrus and sweat drop as he gain tic marks.

"SANS!! WAKE UP!! YOU LAZY BONE HEAD!! THIS ISN'T THE TIME NOR THE PLACE TO SLEEP!!" I covered my ears at Papyrus's loud voice.

The air bubble popped as Sans woke up and before looking up at his brother.

"Did you say something, Papyrus. I was nap walking." I facepalmed at San's behavior.

I decided to ignored them. Until I felt three auras approaching us. Now normally I would just ignore them, but their aura's caught both mine attention and San's attention because they are similar to mine, his, and our friends.

"Kid, you feel them too, right?" I nodded, Papyrus had decided to shut up.

We watched as three figures approach our direction. I speared a glance at Sans and nodded my head to the entrance of the Pokémon Center. He nodded and immediately grabbed Papyrus and dragged him inside.

I stayed there waiting for them to get closer. Now I was able to see them better. There was a boy with a poké cap with a blue vest and a black t-shirt underneath it and black pants. He had a Pikachu on his shoulder.

On the guy's right was a young lady with short blonde hair. A maroon hat with a pair of sunglasses on the hat on her head. She was wearing a pale pink dress shirt with a blue ribbon tied in a simple knot where one would normally have a bowtie there. She had a vest over the dress shirt that was the same color as her hat. She was also wearing a skirt that was the same color as her hat and vest.

And walking slightly behind them was another young lady with long curly magenta hair with streaks of black, green, and blue in it. She wore glasses, with magenta color eyes behind them. She had a pair of headphones around her neck. A pale pink and lavender Backpack. A purple, pink, and magenta flower petal design shirt on. A magenta color skirt with black tights on under them, and she had on a pair of white and magenta running shoes.

She had a unique Eevee on her shoulders. It had fur that was snow white where it should be brown, and it had a lavender color where it's should be a light tan color. The inside of it's ears were silver in color and it's eyes were Heterochromia. One eye was blood red, while the other was a mix of gold and silver.

Then laying on top of her head was a… I blinked, wait… is that one of Zygarde's cores laying on her head. I squint my eyes just to make sure.

I was surprised to find out that I was right. Tho it was white with a violet core. Must be a part of a shiny Zygarde. The girl smiled as she laughed at something that was said between the three of them.

Suddenly the Zygarde core jumped off the girl's head. Much to the girl's shock, and started to quickly hop in my direction. I was curious. Why this Zygarde core looked familiar to me.

Suddenly I remember when I caught a white Zygarde. When I was a gamer, but this couldn't possibly be…

Suddenly the core stopped in front of me. We stared at each other for a while. Until I broke the silence.

"Zaianna?…" I asked softly, not wanting to get my hopes up.

The core squeaked in happiness and bounced up and down.

"Zaianna?" I asked again, but more firmer this time.

It squeaked and nodded in affirmation with happy tears forming in her eyes. Tears started to form in my eyes as well. I got down to my knees and looked at her more closely.

I was looking for the silver crescent moon tattoo, that she had insisted on getting with her other core, Zeanna, getting a silver heart tattoo.

As if knowing what I was looking for. She laid down showing her back to me, and there it was. A large silver crescent moon that fit perfectly in the middle of her back. My tears started to fall as I was able to confirm that it was indeed Zaianna.

"Zaianna?!" I said, as I picked her up, but she jumped away, before she began to glow and grow in size.

Zaianna turned into her dog form and she jumped into my waiting arms. I hugged her close, before I started apologizing.

"Zaianna, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to abandon you and the others. I thought I was gone for too long, and I thought I'll never get to see you guys again. I'm happy to see you again, Zaianna." I said, as I released her from the hug.

"Zaianna... How have Zeanna, Phantom, Danny, Izabela, Hollie, Arrow, Prince, Tigress, and Maimai doing." I asked, Zaianna used telepathy to speak to me.

"Sis is at the cave in the Alola region. Maimai is the new Totem pokémon for the Ghostium Z-crystal in the Abandon Shopping Market. Arrow, Prince, and Tigress are working with Professor Kukui. Phantom disappeared a few weeks after you did. Izabela and Danny are protecting your old home in Kalos from outsiders, and Hollie died a few months ago while protecting a group of children from a Pokémon that went berserk and attacked anything and anyone in sight." Zaianna said, I looked down.

"Thank you for telling me, Zaianna." I said, I looked up and patted her head.

"But I want you to send out a message to everyone. That let everyone know that I'm back and that I'm the chosen Champion of Arceus's Children. Along with two skeleton monsters named Sans and Papyrus." I said, she nodded before returning back to her core form.

I look at the approaching people who looked confused and wanted answers. I stood up and picked Zaianna up before setting her on my shoulder.
