Ah, this chapter was a pain in the butt to write, but it was so fun to think up. I just let my imagination run wild! I hope all of you like it as much as I do! Also, this sort of foreshadows something, well two things, but one in the more near future.
By the way, sorry in advance to all of the Rotom fans, including myself. It seems to be a bit early for mentioning Rotom, but believe me, you'll understand soon.
Disclaimer: Pokémon, along with any people, places or things from it are not mine, nor do I claim it to be. The only thing I do own is myself and the dream this all started from.
Where was I?
I looked around and didn't recognize my surroundings. I determined I was in a large clearing somewhere in a dense forest. I looked down at my watch, intending to see the time, or date, or something that would remind me where I was, why I was here, how I got here, or anything about this place.
My watch wasn't there, nor was my wrist for it to be sitting on, or my hand, or my arm. I looked down at myself. I saw the grass beneath where I figured my feet would be. That's all I could see, grass. My torso, my legs, my feet, none of my body was visible.
"They're near," I heard a female voice behind me, the voice sounded familiar, like I had heard it before, possibly a while ago, but I could place it.
"You can tell already?" asked a second voice, girly, and not at all familiar.
I turned around to see two Pokémon standing together, Arceus and Mew.
My invisible eyeballs felt like they were going to pop out of my invisible skull. Two legendary Pokémon from different generations were standing together in this clearing. I reached down to where my belt would be, but all I felt was air. Not only was I invisible, but, like a ghost, I wasn't really there.
"How can you sense that..." the girly voice, which was Mew's continued.
"I can sense anything, anyone, anywhere," Arceus interrupted, "It's just one of things that comes with creating everything."
Mew nodded, "I can sense them too, now."
I tried to determine if they were talking about a plural "them" or a singular, genderless "them". Being legendary Pokémon it could be either.
My wondering was brought to a halt as, through the trees from all sides more legendary Pokémon emerged. My heart raced, what were the legendary Pokémon from everywhere, Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova doing in this one place?
"Welcome friends," Arceus announced once the Pokémon had assembled in a circle, in what looked like a particular order.
Starting to the left of Arceus the Pokémon were situated by National Pokédex number which skipped Arceus, since Arceus was at the "head" of the circle. Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Mew, Raikou, Entei, Suicune, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Celebi, Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Latias, Latios, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Jirachi, Deoxys, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Diagla, Palkia, Heatran, Regigigas, Giratina, Cresselia, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Victini, Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizon, Tornadus, Thundurus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Landorus, Kyurem, Keldeo, Meloetta, and Genesect.
Arceus turned to Jirachi, "Did you bring it?"
"Yes," Jirachi replied.
"Of course she did!" a squeaky little voice said, Victini.
'Bring what?' I thought, 'he...she...it, doesn't have anything.'
"We all know why we're here?" Arceus asked the circle.
Mumbles of agreement rippled around the circle, a couple voices stood out, like the male voices of Ho-Oh, clear as a ringing bell, Lugia, who's voice carried a sound like waves on the ocean and Giratina, who had a voice that echoed.
"Of course," a male voice, changing slightly between the two words said, Deoxys.
"How could we not?" asked a heated female voice, Heatran.
"We were all alerted by Jirachi before, weren't we?" Latios asked in the voice of a male teenager.
"What, have you forgotten already?" Latias asked in a female teenager's voice.
The four Regis all nodded, clearly unable to talk because of their lack of mouths.
"Good," Arceus said, "We know that it's been causing trouble to the Kanto region," Arceus continued, "and we all know that it will, most likely, travel through all of our regions. Don't be fooled, they may change as they go between regions."
"I think I may have seen one the other day," a deep, powerful voice, the voice of Groudon boomed, "It was blue, but I have a feeling it was the same."
"I saw the same," said Kyogre, his voice gave the sensation of a cool rain on a warm day.
"I as well," Rayquaza added, his voice breathy like sound carried on the wind.
I was getting annoyed by this point, I had no clue what they were talking about, and they were talking about whatever it was very vaguely. I couldn't even begin to guess at what they were talking about.
"I may have seen something as well," Darkrai added, the male voice was barely above a whisper, the tone painting a picture of the pure darkness.
"They looked dangerous," Cresselia added in a female's voice which reminded me of the beauty of the full moon.
"Very dangerous," the female voice of Diagla, rich and slightly deep, stressed.
"They seem to be gray in Sinnoh," Palkia piped up in a male voice which gave the impression of a vicious tiger being tamed.
"Oh," blurted Azelf, "I think I saw one of those things."
"Yes Azelf, we did," Uxie answered.
"They were quite scary," added Mesprit.
"I believe I may have seen a dangerous looking one as well," the melodic, female voice of Meloetta chipped in.
"I think they're all different," the female, child like voice of Celebi chipped in, "Though they may all have the same intentions."
"You may be right," Mewtwo responded, his voice the same as in the movies I had watched as a child.
"I still don't believe everyone's in such a panic," Virizon added in a seductive female voice, inappropriate for the situation, "They can't be as bad as you're making them out to be."
"Nor do I," said Terrakion, who's voice reminded me of a male body builder.
"Me either," added Cobalion, who had a very deep male voice.
"Or me," piped Keldeo in a childish male voice.
"Are you insane?" barked Entei, voice also like the one in the movies.
"This could destroy this world!" added Raikou, who's male voice was commanding and powerful.
"Settle you two," hushed Suicune, her voice smooth as pond water.
"I've seen it myself Virizon," Articuno explained, her voice that of an upper-class female, "They really are. If they're travelling regions they have more power than we had previously thought as well."
"Virizon, if you think this doesn't concern us you are definitely mistaken," Genesect added, its voice sounding robotic.
"The whole world, as Raikou said, is in danger," Kyurem, who had a voice that reminded me of metal scraping along metal.
"What can we do?" wailed a shrill female voice, Shaymin.
"We have to stop them!" wailed another female voice, almost as shrill, Manaphy.
"We have to be able to stop it somehow," the fiery male voice of Moltres commented.
"Of course," Zapdos added in a spunky male voice.
"Maybe a storm would help?" asked Thundurus, the male voice cut through the rest of the noise like thunder.
"Or a tornado," Tornadus asked, the voice of a male, whooshing like a whirlwind.
"An earthquake may do the trick," Landorus suggested, the male voice rumbling like an earthquake.
"The only way of stopping it is to protect what Jirachi brought here," Arceus cut in, "You all know what it is, and its importance to me. Do all you can to make sure it isn't harmed."
The group nodded in unison, then broke away from the circle and left into the forest. Three Pokémon stayed behind, Arceus, Mew, and Jirachi.
"Mew," Arceus said, "It's been nice talking to you, but you need to return to your post in Cerulean."
Mew nodded, "I guess I should. I don't have much time left to be wasting." It, presumably a "she" of sorts flew off.
"Jirachi," Arceus said, "I'm glad you found the significance of this thing before anything happened to it."
"No problem really," Jirachi said, "I've had it around me for a little while now, so I decided to figure some things out about it. That's all."
"Don't be so modest," Arceus commented, "If you had waited much longer it may have been destroyed by this terrible force, thus destroying me."
I blinked my eyes, I finally recognized Arceus' voice, it was...
My eyes opened. I was lying on an air mattress in a tent, the early morning light shining down causing the tent to feel rather warm.
"A dream," I sighed rubbing my eyes, "Only a dream."
