As promised, you amazing people get a sneak peek at snippets of what happen to the characters! It's not like my traditional stuff, where it's just one whole chapter preview... It's snippets of the story at different points.
Before we begin, if you're a new reader (You started reading this story, then went to Firestorm Origins, or started reading my stories a couple months ago, etc), then I want to say welcome to the club, even though it's not really a club! And if you're waiting anxiously for the sequel to come out in a couple weeks... That's not exactly how I run my profile. The way that my writing style works is this: I write my entire story in one go, proofreading and changing out some ideas as I go along, before ever posting it to . This means that there is usually a period of 4-7 months in between my stories being published, but I am able to post two chapters every week. So... Yeah. I post updates at the end of my most recent story, so you guys aren't left in the dark about my progress on the sequels. I hope you guys enjoy this little snippet!
-Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: When Fire Falls-
-Exclusive Access Sneak Peek!-
-Connor-
A hatch opened up in front of them with a glowing field of energy expanding from within it, almost like a net or protect barrier, and Magnezone uncuffed Connor. *Zzzt! Step forward!*
"This can't be happening…" He moved closer to the door and slowly stepped over the line. As he stepped through, nothing felt any different, but Magnezone closed the door, which was made of glass, apparently, and said, *Zzzt! I'm sorry, Connor… Zzzt!*
-Vulcan-
"Vulcan..."
Upon hearing that voice, he bristled up and ignited his fists. "What the hell are you doing here?" He snarled as the pokémon walked out from behind the nearest boulder.
"I know this looks bad, kid… But I got a deal to make with you. It might just save you and your friends."
-Roy-
He stared at the purple flames in front of him, being drawn in against his will, just like last time.
"Hm-hm-hm-ha-ha-ha! Oh, my little Roy… Your spirit is so much stronger than last time we met! But this time, there's no-one to help you…"
-Jade-
She opened her eyes when she heard a brief thunk-like sound, followed by feeling the Typhlosions' grip loosen from her arms. She righted herself from the snow and observed that the Houndoom had been knocked to the side and the Typhlosion had been slammed face-first into the nearest tree. A fog began rolling in around them, and laughter echoed around until a voice called out from her left. "Ooooh, you made a big mistake, lady!"
An identical voice came from her right, a somewhat high-pitched male voice. "A big mistake!"
The Houndoom used fire blast, sending thick pillars of fire in ten different directions, somehow avoiding Jade in the crossfire. After a moment of looking around in silence, she snarled softly. "Hmph…"
She turned back to Jade and leapt forward, but a shadowy pokémon grappled her head mid-leap and slammed her head into the snow. "Hee-hee! Levi, you gotta try this!"
The Houndoom got up and looked into the fog, then back at the Typhlosion and Talonflame, "Well?! Do something!"
The Talonflame's wings began glowing, about to use defog, when the same shadowy figure tackled it out of the air. "Ain't nobody messing up our flow, son!"
The same voice came from her right again. "Yeah!"
-Amber-
"Dusknoir, you can't go now! We need you! Tell him to delay a little bit longer! Just until you find Roy!"
"I'm sorry, Amber… But Giratina has summoned me. I do not know when I will return. I will do my best to make this meeting swift… But he grows less tolerant of our meddling. It will be difficult to persuade him much more." Dusknoir hung his head low and placed his hand on the ground. A dimensional hole appeared in the stone, the blue and black rings pulsing and swirling towards the center of the hole. He looked back once at her, then briefly at Grovyle before nodding his head once and vanishing into the portal.
-Mirage-
"Mirage… Hiekka?" The Aegislash levitated in front of her and seemed to be scanning her entire body as she stood in the courtyard of the massive palace made entirely of sandstone. "Yeah. Are they here?"
"Not at the moment, madam… But they should be back before nightfall. And your pursuers will not be allowed past the front gates."
-Victor-
He paced down the hallway on his way to his vault, and he stopped as a slight twinkle caught his eye. He moved closer to the statue of Valerie the Delphox and noticed a small badge on its dress "Hm? What's this…? It's not Team Firestorm…" He plucked it off with his beak, and a deeper female voice resonated from behind him. "You know, I look much better in person. I'm not really feeling the whole 'statue' thing."
-Aaron-
"I swore to Arceus that I'd be the one to kill you, Victor… And still, for nine years, you've evaded me. But I intend to keep my promise." He clenched his fists and looked to the sky as the rain slowed down to a light drizzle. He sighed and laid his head down against the cliffside in frustration. "GAH!" He slammed his fist into the wall, sending a fissure-like crack up the cliffside.
Alright, so what do you guys think so far? I'm trying to work on the sequel as much as I can while maintaining a good balance of school and work, so it won't be out for at least another four months, probably... School sucks. But meh. It'll be a fun adventure, full of peril and a few new faces added into the mix! But not a ton like in this story. (There was some confusion about the Insurgo for those that hadn't read my Grovyle Stories. I introduced like fifteen 'new characters' in this one. :P) Speaking of new Characters, I am no longer accepting new entries due to how many I already have. I'm sorry about that.
What do you guys think of these little snippets? Go ahead and leave any questions, comments, concerns and theories about what's gonna happen in the form of a review or PM! It's always appreciated, and I enjoy having conversations with you guys! I will see you guys in When Fire Falls! Much Love!
