Mirror of Nightmare
Chapter 21: Fate
"What?!" Everyone says.
"We doubt that those souls had escaped to Soulyn or Lumina… But I think not because… Soulyn… As Diasol said, that place is very bore to live… And Lumina… Along the way from Darkon to Lumina, you must pass a gate where a three-heads dog guards it… It is nearly impossible to pass through the gate unless you had got the permission from me or Giratina." Yterval says.
"Strange…" Rucas mumbles.
"Hey! Why didn't you ask Lumina or Soulyn about this?!" Navi asks.
"You know… Darkon isn't a good friend with Lumina… And Soulyn… I don't know if Soulyn hate Darkon or not…" Yterval says.
"Then… What did you do?" Rucas asks.
"Everyone just forgot about it. Because they thought that those souls had fallen into the river of sin." Yterval says.
'River of Sin?!' Everyone thinks.
-Meanwhile, at Irtha Legend College
"… Where are the Sacred Children now?" Principal Togekiss asks a Pokemon in a black robe.
"… They are staying at the Lost Undersea City with the Sword of Justice." The Pokemon in the black robe says.
"I thought that you were going to kill the Sword of Justice… But they are still alive…" Principal Togekiss says.
"… My master doesn't want me to kill them…" A Pokemon in the black robe says.
"Then, why did you go to the Lost Undersea City and fought with the Sword of Justice? And you didn't kill them, but left them with such a harsh injury…" Principal Togekiss asks.
"None of your business." The Pokemon in the black robe asks and removes his robe.
"… You are such an enigmatic creature, Mysterious Demon." Principal Togekiss says.
Under the black robe is the body of the Mysterious Demon… But he is wearing a mask so no one can see his true face.
"… I think that this is the time that I should leave this place… I need to fulfill my work…" Mysterious Demon says and disappears.
'Hm… Same as ever… Never show any emotion toward me…' Principal Togekiss says.
But then, a second after Mysterious Demon left, the door of Principal Togekiss's room.
"Who allow you to enter my room?! And why didn't you knock the door?!" Principal Togekiss says angrily, but then he softens his voice when he realizes that Pokemon who are entering his room is…
"… Who did you talk with before we came?" The first Pokemon asks.
"Well… If this isn't the Earthbound Dragon and The Sky Predator… But I thought that I hired you to protect the Sacred Children, didn't I?" Says the Togekiss.
"Shut up, only my boss and my brother that can call me with that name." Terrus says.
"Yeah! We come here to ask you for the truth! Togekiss, who did you talk with before we came?!" Soryl says.
"… None of your business." Togekiss says.
"You called him the Mysterious Demon, right?" Terrus asks.
"… So you two had eavesdropped me…" Togekiss says, and two brothers nod.
"… Before you left this school, I can sense the cloud of darkness within this place… Along our journey, I tried to find the truth about the cloud of darkness, and when we reached the lost undersea city, we finally learn the truth…" Terrus says.
"You chose Jedi, Ordin, Nardal, Ellisk and Glacia for a bad purpose!" Soryl says.
"… I asked Glacia to be the Sacred Children, and she accepted because I am her adopted father… Ellisk accepted because he wants to stop the war that killed his entire family, and the rest, they decided to be the Sacred Children because they didn't want to abandon Ellisk. Is that wrong?" Togekiss asks.
"No… You chose them to be the Sacred Children just because they are orphans, right?" Terrus says.
"…" Principal Togekiss says nothing.
"Because in the end, in order to meet the god, the Sacred Children have to sacrifice their life…" Soryl says.
"And you chose those poor orphans just because you think that they are worthless, right?" Terrus says.
"… It isn't my decision to do that." Principal Togekiss says.
"Then who?" Soryl asks.
"… The god." Togekiss says. His word shocks Terrus and Soryl.
"What?!" Terrus and Soryl say.
"The god commanded me to do that, and the Mysterious Demon is his servant." Togekiss says. His word left the brothers speechless.
"… Since you have known the truth of this, I thought that I couldn't let you go alive…" Togekiss says.
"Sure." Terrus says and aims his pistol to Togekiss's chest and then.
"BANG!"
"Good bye, you worthless creature…" Terrus says.
"… You… are… fiend…." Togekiss says before he stops breathing.
"Terrus, let's go back to the Lost Undersea City before someone knows about this." Soryl says.
"Yes…" Terrus says. Then both brothers leave the room.
-Back to the Lost Undersea City
"Where were you going?!" Maxnet asks when Terrus and Soryl shows up.
"We had just patrolled this place." Terrus lies.
"Why it took you so long?!" Maxnet asks.
"Soryl and I lost." Terrus says.
"Hm! You'd better to make sure not getting lost next time!" Maxnet says before he walks away.
After Maxnet walks away, Soryl turns his face to Terrus.
"… Hey, Terrus, is this the right thing? We killed the principal of that school just because he knows that we know everything about the Sacred Children…" Soryl asks.
"… Only the strongest that can survive, Soryl. You know this." Terrus answers.
"… Killing he isn't the right thing." Soryl says.
"I know. But we have no choice. The fate orders us to do this. You know… And of course, although the Sacred Children have to die in order to meet the god… But we will never live long enough to see the new world." Terrus says.
"Yes. Both of us are not exist in this place. The god ordered us to fulfill this duty. But once it is finish, we will return to Soulyn…" Soryl says.
To Be Continue…
LD: Eh! Terrus and Soryl come from Soulyn?!
Pokedragon: Of course they are!
