Chapter 33
Grayos
The Togetic guides me through the infirmary, never missing a beat. I follow as I faintly hear cries of pain from other divided areas. Their voices ring all around me and I shudder. My guide turns a corner and stops on the ground. She points to a divided area and looks to me. I nod at her, giving a thankful smile as she flies off to soothe one of the cries of pain. That leaves just me and the place where the two curtains separate. With a deep breath, I walk in on my feet into the room.
Three tables are set up in a row with pokemon lying on them with more white bandages on their bodies than actual skin or feathers. The three of them are propped up to sit up with the aid of nurses. They weren't just any pokemon. The pokemon were Dawn, Blake, and April. Of all pokemon, it had to be those three. I sigh and close my eyes for a moment. "Grayos, sir." I open my eyes to find one of the head doctors standing in front of me. "Sir, these three pokemon requested that they share some vital information with you."
"Thank you very much for notifying me. Unfortunately, Kitiro and Leyorra could not come at this moment. I hope you understand."
"Yes. It's no problem at all." The medic turns around and nods to the nurses who make sure that the injured pokemon can sit on their own and leave with the doctor. The four of us are left in the divided room alone.
"Thank you for coming, Grayos. We have vital information that can be useful to our victory in the war and a warning of a possible future battle." Dawn speaks from her table.
"Dawn, Blake, April? I've taken notice of your absence of the past two days. I don't want to know what you know just yet. I want to know what you did. So tell me, where were you?" I ask her with a deep voice. She blinks and doesn't say anything. However, April speaks up.
"We left Skyborne two mornings ago in pursuit of the Wings of Legend. In our past battle, it was Dawn and Blake that took down Moltres. So, if we were able to take down Moltres, we thought that, with luck, we'd be able to take down Rayquaza which we believed to be the leader of the Wings of Legend. The three of us traveled to Mt. Coronet and we found ruins called Spear Pillar. At the center was a portal to this weird world where everything was misplaced. There lies the base of the Wings of Legend. There, we discovered that the leader of the Wings of Legend isn't Rayquaza but a different pokemon that-"
"Giratina." I interrupt. April blinks.
"What?"
"The pokemon's name is Giratina and that weird world is called the distortion world." The three pokemon stare at me with confusion and suspicion. However, April conitues.
"Um, okay. Giratina locked us up because he wanted us for some reason, but we escaped. Before we returned to Spear Pillar, Giratina shouted that he was going to come for us and "Skyborne will pay." April finishes and Dawn speaks up.
"We believe that the Wings of Legend are planning an attack on Skyborne soon. And, this time, it's likely that they will bring their leader. We must prepare Skyborne for battle, now!" Dawn finishes and stares at me expectantly for a response. I groan and bury my face in my claws. Dawn recoils a bit at my reaction, not expecting it at all. But, she doesn't know how horrible this is.
"So, he knows where you are!? And he is planning an attack to retrieve you?!" I groan through my claws.
"Um, I think so. It sure sounded like it."
"This is bad. This is very bad! You should have never left Skyborne!" I look up from my hands. "Do you realize what you have done!?" I practically scream at them. Blake and April are speechless, shell shocked. Dawn just stares at me with a neutral yet serious look. There is a long silence between the four of us until Dawn breaks it.
"Grayos. You know these things already, don't you?" I start to calm down a bit and I nod. She glares at me. "What else do you know? What's going on, Grayos?" Now, neither of us will dare break the silence. I've never told anyone of what I know. It was all to protect them and to protect the world. But, I don't really have a choice, now. I've been backed into the corner and the only way out is to confess.
"Will you three be out of the infirmary by later tonight, do you think?" All three of them nod. They're already sitting up without much trouble. "Alright. Meet me at midnight tonight in the primary dragon training grounds. There, we'll talk." The three nod again. "Thank you for telling me of this. And I'm sorry that you had to go through something like that. It's all my fault. But, I must be leaving now." With that, I back out of the room and swiftly fly out of the infirmary without another word.
