Nightshroud: The Beginning
Chapter 10
The group are in the medical room waiting for Prof. Ivy to wake up. Nightshroud is leaning against a wall with Pikachu and the invisible Meloetta. "Should I reveal myself to the rest of the guys?" Nightshroud whispered to the two pokemon.
'I recommend it, but you don't have to if you don't want to.' Pikachu said.
'It's okay if you don't tell them your real identity.' Meloetta said.
Nightshroud smiled and nodded. A few moments later, Prof. Ivy started to stir. Everyone looked on in patience. Ivy wakes up and finds herself in a medical room with a familiar face and unfamiliar faces. When she saw Krane's face, she smiled.
"Hello Krane. It's been a long time." Prof. Ivy said.
Krane smiled in relief. "It sure has."
Ivy then saw Nightshroud and the rest of the gang. "Who are they?" She asked.
Jovi popped up. "Hi! I'm Jovi!"
"My my." Ivy said. "You are an energetic little girl aren't you?"
"You have no idea." Michael said. "I'm Jovi's big brother. Name's Michael."
Ivy nodded. "Nice to meet you."
Rui then stepped up. "I'm Rui."
Next to Rui was Wes. "Wes."
Ivy nodded. "Nice to meet both of you."
Cheren and N stepped up. "Name's Cheren. I'm not from here. I'm from Unova."
"Same here." N said. "Name's N."
"You both are from Unova!" Ivy exclaimed. Cheren and N nodded. "Amazing. You two are the first trainers from Unova I've ever seen." Both trainers nodded. Ivy then turned to Nightshroud. "What about you?"
"Me?" Nightshroud said. He then pulled his hood down. "I know you're not gonna believe this, but I'm . . ." He then removed his mask to reveal his face and scar on the right eye. ". . . a friend." Pikachu got onto his shoulder. Everybody else turned to him.
Ivy seemed to recognize Nightshroud by his face, hair, and the Pikachu on his shoulder. "Ash? Is that you?" Nightshroud nodded.
"Wait! Ash? As in Ash Ketchum? My brother's idol?" Jovi asked.
Nightshroud nodded again. "Afraid so. Krane knew this all along. The only people I revealed my secret to are Wes and Michael." Everyone turned to the Orre trainers. Both nodded.
Jovi and Rui turned to Krane. "You knew about Nightshroud's identity all along!" Both of them exclaimed.
"Yeah." Everyone turned to Nightshroud. He stared at his mask. "He was the one who gave me this mask. I just make my new name."
"Why?" Jovi asked.
"Jovi. Don't ask him that." Michael said. "It already hurt him enough to tell the story to me and Wes."
"No no. It's okay Michael." Nightshroud said. "I'd be happy to. Like I said, it's better to tell a painful secret to friends." Nightshroud told his painful past once again.
"Wow!" Jovi said amazed. "That's quite a sad story."
"Yeah." Ivy said. "I never thought Misty and Brock would say such things."
Nightshroud nodded. "Yeah. I thought that they were my friends, but all they did was taking me for granted. Using me to achieve their dreams. And they tell me to give up my dream. Not quite the friends I want."
"Wait!" Rui said. "Since you showed Michael and Wes your true identity, how did they know?" She said referring to Cheren and N.
"Well, they kind of figured it out." Nightshroud answered. Cheren and N nodded.
"By the way Ash." Michael said. "How did you get that scar?"
Nightshroud chuckled. "That past is not as painful, but I'll tell. I got this scar from a mishap in a battle in one of Team Rocket's base."
"Who's Team Rocket?" Jovi asked confused.
"Team Rocket is a criminal orgainization that resides in the Kanto and Johto regions." Wes answered.
Nightshroud nodded. "Anyway, one of the grunts had a Scizor . . ."
(Flashback)
In a Team Rocket base in the middle of a forest, Ash was running through a hallway with Pikachu and a Riolu. Riolu isn't a normal Riolu, it's the same one Ash rescued from Hunter J. The same Riolu who can use Aura Sphere. One time Ash traveled around the Sinnoh region to take part in the Sinnoh league once again. He encountered the Riolu in the route to Veilstone City. They communicated through aura. Riolu told Ash that it allowed another Riolu to take its place as the new guardian of the Lucario Kingdom and traveled everywhere to find Ash. After a few minutes of explanation, Ash allowed Riolu to travel with him. Now, Riolu is one of his strongest pokemon.
Ash, Pikachu, and Riolu are still running through the hall. They stopped when they saw a Rocket grunt with a pokeball in his hand. "Move out of the way." Ash said darkly. "I have no business with you."
"I can't do that." the grunt said. "You're an intruder. And it's my job to stop intruders. Go Scizor!" He threw the ball and it opened. A light came out and took form of a Scizor.
"Fool." Ash said. He turned to Riolu. "Lets do it Riolu."
"Right." Riolu said through aura and jumped in front of Ash ready to battle.
"Use Quick Attack!" the grunt ordered. Scizor charged for Riolu really fast.
"You use Quick Attack too." Ash commanded calmly. Riolu charged really fast. The attacks collided and forced both Pokemon back.
"Wing Attack!" Scizor's wings glow white and charged at Riolu.
"Endure." Riolu blocked the attack and hung on. "Aura Sphere." Riolu created a ball of aura and fired it from one hand.
"Agility!" Scizor flies leaving behind white trails of energy and evaded the attack. "Quick Attack!" Scizor charged really fast.
"Force Palm." Riolu put a palm on Scizor and released a yellow energy damaging Scizor.
"Regain yourself Scizor!" Scizor shook off the damage. "X-Scissor!" Scizor crossed its arm into an 'x' and turned blue. It then charged at Riolu.
"Dodge it." Riolu moved to the side before Scizor hit it, but unfortunately the attack is no coming straight to Ash. He tried to move, but thanks to Agility, the X-Scissor hit him the right eye really fast. Ash is kneeling on the floor clutching his eye in pain. Blood is coming out of it. Pikachu and Riolu ran to Ash's side to help him. He took out a pokeball. "Quilava use SmokeScreen!" The ball opened and a light came out and took form of Quilava. Quilava releases a thick black of smoke from its mouth. The grunt and Scizor coughed. The smoke cleared to reveal Ash, Pikachu, and Riolu nowhere in sight.
(Flashback End)
"After that, I used my aura to heal the wound, but the scar is permanent, it will never go away." Nightshroud finished.
"Ouch." Michael said. "That must have hurt."
"It did." Nightshroud said. "Even though I used my aura to stop the bleeding, the pain was still there. It hurt for about a week." He then touched the scar.
"Wait." Jovi said. "I thought you didn't compete in the Kanto league again!"
"I didn't." Nightshroud said. "I only came back to Kanto to get rid of Team Rocket once and for all."
"And you suceeded?" Rui asked.
Nightshroud nodded. "Right. I defeated the boss in the main headquarters and got him arrested. He died trying to escape jail. All the people who joined Team Rocket got back to their life before they joined." The others were amazed. "So, now what do we do?"
"I'll tell you what we can do!" Everyone turned to Michael. "We have to find a way to defeat Team Cipher once and for all!"
"Obviously." Wes said while rolling his eyes.
"But we can't just go after them head on!" Nightshroud said. "We need a plan." He then turned to Krane. "Professor, do you have anything that can help us defeat Team Cipher?"
Krane thought about it. "Well, I could use one of the advanced houses that have rare technologies I bought, but I don't think that either one of them can be of some help."
"Wait!" Michael exclaimed. "Orre has advanced houses!" Krane nodded.
"Why didn't you tell us?" Wes asked angrily.
"I thought that it wouldn't be a big deal." Krane answered.
"You bought houses that have advanced technologies. Of course it is a big deal!" Nightshroud said angrily.
"I know now." Krane said. "Not only that, some of my scientists and their families live in them."
"Wait. Did you say that some of your scientists live in the houses you bought?" Michael asked. Krane nodded. "Are you sure that you bought all the advanced houses?" He asked as Nightshroud put his mask back on and pressed a button.
"Just the ones that have better technologies than our lab." Krane answered.
A 'beep' sound was made in Nightshroud's mask. "You didn't buy all the houses with better technology. According to my mask, there is still one more advanced house with better technology for sale in Phenac City."
"There is?" Krane asked confused.
Nightshroud nodded. "In fact, it has better technologies than in the lab."
"And it's in Phenac City?" Krane asked. Nightshroud nodded again. "Well, I think I better buy it. How much does it cost?"
"It costs 500,000 Poke Dollors." Nightshroud answered.
"That's it?" Krane said. "No problem. I can afford that."
"Are you sure you can trust that?" Rui asked.
"Yeah." Krane said. "I programmed the mask to know the maps of every region and what's going on in every region. The mask is never wrong."
"Alright then." Rui said.
"The only problem is that I don't know who to give the house to." Krane said.
Nightshroud then thought of an idea. "What about us?" Everyone turned to him confused. "Me, Michael, Wes, Rui and Jovi. You can give the house to us." Michael and Rui smiled in excitement. Wes smirked. Jovi was not excited.
"You guys?" Everyone but Jovi nodded.
"Not me." Everyone turned to Jovi. "I wanna stay here at the lab. I love you brother, but I wanna stay here with my friends and mommy."
Michael smiled. "I guess it's okay."
"The house does have 5 bedrooms." Nightshroud said. "I guess we can use that as a guest room."
"Or you can give it to me." Everyone turned to N.
"You want a place to live?" Nightshroud asked.
"I had a place, but it collapsed." N said.
"Okay." Krane said. "So, you all really want the house?" Nightshroud, Wes, Rui, Michael, and N nodded. "Well then. I'll buy it for you."
"All right! We got our own place!" Nightshroud said. They celebrated. He and Michael high-fived. Rui hugged Wes. N smiled finally have a place to live again. Then a rumble and roars are heard. "What was that?"
"It came from outside!" Cheren said. Nightshroud, Michae, Wes, Cheren and N headed outback and are shocked at what they saw.
