It was a cold December in Celetris. Kooper and company were searching for Aurafu, even exploring the Mushroom Kingdom, but still no trace. During this time, Kooper became hyper fixated on finding Aurafu, from plastering missing posters everywhere in Celetris, to even digging through the rubble in Astral Mountain, day in and day out.
Back home, Silver arrived at her house after a long flight. Landing on the front porch and opening the door. A little bell rang once she opened it, something she 'ahem' borrowed from an empty store. It acts as a security mechanism.
"What intruder is here this time? I am armed this time!"
"Relax, Noiwave. It's just me." Said Silver.
"You're not me, you're Silver. Or are you? You could just be a Void Shadow that looks a little too much like my little sister." Noiwave squints into her eyes. "You smell like the outside more than usual."
"I've been outside more than usual." Silver says deadpanned.
"Or have you?"
"Noiwave, enough! I would've killed you already if I were a shadow."
"Thought you would have killed me anyhow!"
"Look. I am not one of those shadows. "
"Ok, this is getting boring and dumb." Noiwave yawns.
"Good."
"Small talk to me like that again and I'll smack ya up!" Noiwave raises her tail.
"Bitch, you best back the f!#k up before you get smacked the f!#k up!" Silver said, also raising her tail, a grin emerging across her face.
"That's cute. My tail is bigger than my future, and that's a fair trade if I say so..."
"Your tail might be bigger~" she vanished in a flash, appearing behind Noiwave "~But I'm faster, bitch." She smacks her hard and snickers to herself.
Noiwave fake cries and overreacts. They pause when they hear the bell ring, with wind and snow blowing in. It was Kooper freezing with an icicle on his snout and blue skin.
"Oh my Arceus!" Silver rushes over and warms him up to the best of her ability.
Noiwave signs. "Why do you keep pushing yourself to the limits like this!?"
"I won't rest until Aurafu is f-f-found!" Kooper stays determined, despite freezing outdoors.
"You're gonna kill yourself out there!" Noiwave yells.
"She's right, you know. No use in yourself going missing yourself trying to find him." Silver agrees.
"It does not matter if I go missing. I'm gonna keep searching tomorrow like I always do." Kooper put his foot down.
"STOP THIS!" Noiwave holds Kooper by his arms. "You're not going out tomorrow! We want to find Aurafu like you, but we've worked our asses off to help you, so stay here or else I'll force you to stay here!"
Kooper froze up when Noiwave yelled at him before fainting.
Silver stares at him wide-eyed and looks back at Noiwave. "Er... I think you yelled too loud."
"He froze to death!"
"No, he didn't. He's just fainted. Trust me, I know"
"What are we gonna do with him, Silver? This is going to be the worst-case scenario if we have to tie him up. It does not matter what we do, we can't stop him now."
Silver tucks him up with incredible care, like a mother would with her son. She sets the fireplace, making sure he's warm and cozy in his nest.
"You're so good to him. I don't know how you do it." Noiwave watches her, feeling empty and defeated. "No wonder why people always liked you more. Am I too aggressive, perhaps? This is a sad world we live in. I can't even get Kooper to eat something. No matter what we do, we can't keep him in one place, to put his mind at rest."
"I don't think the kid's mind can rest." Silver turns to Kooper, keeping a close eye on him.
The next morning, Dry Bones came over to update the Noivern sisters on Aurafu's whereabouts
Silver opens the door, sipping on some coffee. Dry Bones greeted her "Oh? hello, Dry Bones. " She opens the door up all the way, inviting him in. "Come in. Don't want ya freezing in the cold."
"I'm already dead, so I don't know how much it affects me."
She rolls her eyes "Just- get your boney ass in the house."
"I have no ass. You could say it's pretty BAREBONES." He steps into the house, cackling to himself.
"I'm gonna give you one if you make one more fucking bone-related pun." she muttered.
"What was that?" He turned around.
Noiwave walks in. "Oh, hey Dry Bones, what the hell do you want?"
"You know about Kooper's Game Boy? It's not alone a Pokémon machine, it's used for communication, a map, and tracking ghosts from our universe called Boos. He gifted Aurafu one and when I was digging through the Astral Mountain rubble, I could not find his system. So I believe Rena and Seriph teleported out of the Cave of Cosmos along with him before blowing it up."
"How do we know if his Gameboy horror was destroyed?" Silver asked.
"Game Boys can survive nuclear explosions. I am damn certain it can survive a terrorist attack caused by two edgy furriers. Now, where's that Fakemon Kooper? I need to see his Gamer boy for a second."
Silver points to the room with the fireplace, Dry Bones tiptoes near the fireplace where Kooper was fast asleep with his Game Boy in his hand.
"Wait... when did Kooper get the Nintendo 64 hoodie? He is from an N64 game, so he must have gotten out instead of N.
"What is it with you and puns?" Silver asked.
"Because I'm not that BARE BONES."
Dry Bones quickly snatches Kooper's Gameboy, replacing it with an Urshifu plush toy, and Silver mutters angrily behind him before looking at the screen. He then goes to call Aurafu.
"If he picks up, this boy is getting chucked at someone's fathead."
They all pause when someone picks up the call.
"WHAT IS YOUR CONCERN!" Someone picked up the call.
"AURAFU!? YOUR ALIVE!" Silver jumps back. "WHERE THE F!#K WERE YOU!? KOOPER NEARLY FROZE TO DEATH TRYING TO FIND YO UGLY ASS!"
"Well, if it isn't Kalvin-Koopa and his two stinky bats. How the heck are you? Is Kooper still haunting me down? Old habits die hard, don't they?"
"EXPLAIN YOURSELF. I WANT AN ANSWER MOTHER F#!KER, WHERE. THE. F!#K. WERE. YOU!?" Silver demands.
"Don't need to get angry like a typical Noivern... and a woman."
"Bitch-" Silver rips the Game Boy out of his dry, boney hands and slams it on the ground as hard as she could. Noiwave pulls her little sister away.
"Silver!" That was our only chance to find out where he is!" Noiwave yells.
"It's fine. If they can withstand a nuclear blast, then they can withstand me throwing it into a wall. Unlike YOU WHEN I GET MY CLAWS ON YOU!" she yelled into the Game Boy.
"Oh, what was that? I'll just iron my Sir Arron cape and hat. See ya later, instigator." Aurafu hangs up.
Silver is practically fuming with anger. She grabbed the nearest non-valuable object she could and threw it out the nearest window.
"When I get my f!#king paws on him, I'm gonna. [EXPUNGED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REMOVED] [EXPUNGED] [REMOVED]"
Noiwave smacks the back of Silver's head. "Get it together, idiot."
"That can't be Aurafu! He looks like some sort of fusion between a Lucario and an Urshifu. He even had the outfit of the legendary Aura Guardian!" Said Dry Bones.
"S!#t can change. Plus, he uses Aura, and guess what else uses Aura? Lucario's. In fact, I think that's their main thing."
"They are literally called the ,"Aura Pokémon, tiny tail." Noiwave face palms.
"Aura is literally in Aurafu's name, ya doofus." Silver replies.
"I might know where Aurafu might be from his background. Aurafu is looking top tier, so we need to pick up the rest of his team, starting with." Dry Bones kicks Kooper to wake him up.
"Don't you f!#king dare kick him, you glorified turtle corpse, or you will experience death for a second time!" Silver threatens him.
"Is there something I can do for you?" Kooper rubs his eyes.
"Hey Kooper! Guess what? We found Aurafu!"
"I have a hard time believing that." Kooper is unamused.
"We suspect Aurafu's location, and I'm gonna do a bit of a private meetup between my fist and his stupid face. "
"You don't have a fist, that's just a claw." Kooper holds her claw.
"And you think things like logic are gonna stop me? Pitiful"
"If you're lying to cheer me up for a fun day out together, then let me just go get my friends. They moved down to the oasis in the desert, but were going to have to meet them down there." Kooper grabs his Star Rod and all his power-ups from his world. "Fly me to the desert oasis." He snapped his fingers towards Silver.
Silver lays down on her belly.
"Fine! Pretend to be Ash's Charizard today. These games are not tolerated!" Kooper slams the front door.
Silver glances back at Kooper, wondering if he was referring to her.
Loading Desert Oasis.
The Garchomp was finally relaxing in his favorite spot again, having lost it for a long while during the Celetris war. Noiwave and Silver were flying above with Kooper and Dry Bones on their backs, looking tired from the long flight.
"Oh no. I remember trespassing here." Kooper lies on Silver's back, not ready for what he's about to get into.
"You have two big noiverns by your side. We would lash out at a sand shark just as much as anyone else."
Silver scowled at Granchon, hiding Kooper with her oversized ears to obscure Kooper from the Garchomp.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you," Silver whispered to him. "If that f#!ker even dares to lay a finger on you, I'll rip it up and make him eat him."
Granchon stirs, initially confused at the sudden intruders, before shaking himself awake. "Get out of my territory."
The quartet hid behind a rock.
"That was that damn wild Garchomp you mentioned before, Kooper? Surprised nobody took his place, so I will, for the sake of free real estate." Dry Bones sharpens a dagger he has on him.
"Let's not try to fight him." Silver silently walks down the path to get out of his territory, turning her body sideways, making sure he never sees Kooper.
"You should be the second to last one saying that, sis. This is a Garchomp we're talking about, so someone is going down." Said Noiwave.
Silver groans "I thought we're here to find some info on Aurafu. Don't get into brawls with random Pokemon."
"This place is none the better after the war." Kooper holds Silver, disappointed at the outcome of his actions.
"It's not that bad in Celetris, Kooper. The only things missing here are constant kidnappings, incompetent military, mild cartoon violence, decent food, warp pipes, parties, golf and Waluigi... or maybe we can consider someone like Noiwave as these world's Waluigi."
"Quit yelling Dry Bones or I'll snap your femur." Silver hushes Dry Bones
"Oh crap. Let's just switch to a trust passing ASMR." Dry Bones whispered.
Granchon growls quietly, sharpening his scythes.
"My mind palace has come up with an idea. A lightbulb appears above Kooper's head. He throws Noiwave a Double Cherry and another version of herself appears.
"Damn, I look good... like superb, like I look... good." Noiwave gawks at her double. "Now go over to that Garchomp over there, you majestic bat." She points her double towards the Garchomp while blushing at herself.
Silver finds it a little creepy and watches as it runs at the Garchomp.
"Now we can sneak on by." Said Kooper.
"Oh.. Oh... I know. Yeah, let's go before he realizes." Silver quickly sneaks away.
"Now I regret not busting my tail more for Kooper. There is so much more we have to learn about him and his world." Noiwave is still admiring her double as they pass on by.
"Sis. Stop checking yourself out and get a move on before he learns it's a fake." Said Silver.
"But look at that form. That is the idol female form." Noiwave points at her double.
"Holy Arceus, you're narcissistic."
"Sh, sweet summer child." Noiwave hugs her little sister.
"Ugh." Despite being annoyed, she enjoyed it, and hugged back before smacking her across the face. "Snap out of it."
"Just for you." She kissed Silver on her forehead.
Silver turned around in disgust and walked away, still trying to hide Kooper.
"I made a mistake..." Kooper's eyes narrowed.
"Yeah.. same here." Said Silver
"You're talking about yourself, right guys?" Dry Bones asked.
Kooper and Silver simply nodded.
Noiwave turns around to admire her double, only to see it being torn up by the Garchomp.
Silver winces. "Alright, for real. We should go!"
Noiwave flies away, screaming in horror at seeing herself being torn apart..
"Hold on Kooper!" Silver flies after Noiwave.
"You cousins of a gun! Wait for me!" Dry Bones runs after them, completely exposing himself to the Garchomp.
"If the ground is weak against fire..." Kooper's Star Rod reacts to his power ups and gives him a fire flower by default. Without a second thought, he jumps off Silver to face the Garchomp by himself.
"You dumbass! It's the opposite!"
Silver tried to skid to a stop, but face planted into the sand. She groans and falls on her back, dazed and concussed. Dry Bones trips Kooper, drags him by the leg towards Silver so the both of them can pick her up to flee.
"You're the type of stupid person to look up type weaknesses." Said Dry Bones.
"I don't want to talk about it!"
"Kan u gois elp me up in my head."
"I don't speak temporarily unconscious or confused, Silver." Kooper shakes her.
This just makes it worse. She groans in pain from the shaking.
Noiwave comes down and grabs Silver out of Kooper's hands. "Everyone steps back from me, life-sized Noivern plush. Noiwave slaps her. "Your slaps worked on me, so it better work on you."
Silver's brain bounced around more and she suffered another concussion. That probably isn't accurate, but screw it. She became even worse. Noiwave sprays a full heal on her sister
"Ugh..." she slowly recovers. "U bettrr not try to kiss ne."
"Well, Mom would not do it if we had one..."
Silver tries to get up, but fails and falls to her side.
"You're such a mistake sometimes, kooper, such a mistake." Noiwave says out of nowhere.
The other three stood there silently, surprised by what she said.
"That would have sounded more impactful if Silver said it, than I would have really taken a minute to reflect." Kooper roast Noiwave and lays Silver on her back to soothe her.
"I let you stay in our house, eat our food when you actually ate and flew you all around Celetris multiple times to find Aurafu, and you say that to me!?"
"Koopa did nufin wong!"
"SHHHHH! I'm speaking, my orphan sister!"
"Don't talk to Silver like that!"
"Yeh don tolk 2 me loik dat bu moportantly don talk 2 Koppa loik dat!"
"Say nothing until you can talk normally!"
"There's no such thing as normal. It's okay, Silver." Kooper rubs her back.
"Tanku koopa. C luk sumeon who aktually loves n kaers bout me
"Oh, if only I knew what you're saying. But I still love you all the same."
Silver smiles as it snowed all over the Badlands.
"Huh? Snow in da dezrt?"
"It sure is, stinky bat. That Garchomp is not following us now, so I'll just watch you guys catch a cold as we wait for Kresin and Volstro to get their tails over here. ,"Who's a good disabled bat?" Dry Bones experiments with Silver, patting her belly.
"imn otdisaebld im perfektlyfoin
The three carried Silver all the way back home and spent the rest of the day there with snow all over Celetris.
Noiwave was resting in her nest and holding Silver close.
"Kooper... sorry for what I said earlier. Me and Silver just tried to support you. You ."
"Speaking of which, c-can I sleep with you guys tonight?" Kooper asked nervously.
Silver groans and rolls over on her belly.
"You still look pretty cold. I'll give you Silver to hug tonight." Noiwave lays Kooper down on Silver's belly and covers him with a blanket. "Goodnight, Kooper." She gives him a warm smile and turns away to lie down.
In their bathroom, Dry Bones was looking into the mirror, painting his face with gray paint to cover up something. "Okay... now they will never know the real me..."
The next morning, Kooper and Dry Bones traveled back towards the Badlands to apologize to Garchomp.
"Celetris doesn't celebrate the season of giving, but I'll give, regardless." Kooper holds a Christmas present and walks up to the Garchomp.
"Wait! You're actually doing this!? You saw what he did to Noiwave's clone yesterday? You most be stupid or plotting a suicide mission, my guy!" Dry Bones holds on to one of Kooper's arms as he gets closer.
"You've got three seconds to back up." He growls angrily.
"I just want to give you a little present as an apology for trespassing." Kooper tries to reason with him with no fear.
"Those are the words of a dead man..." Dry Bones looks at himself for a sec. "I'm a bad influence. I like it."
"Gee, you got a death wish, little guy?" Kresin pops in, yanking them both back
Volstro swoops in too, slashing away. "Never anger a dragon, kids! They're too dangerous if you can't handle it."
"First, I fought much worse where I come from. Second, is that you, Volstro? You look... bigger than me now, so you might have a point."
"Kooper, there is no talent in being 3′ 3″ compared to our 2'6, I don't believe in size. It's a lost cause," Said Dry Bones.
"The only lost cause is your package. Lost forever ago." Kooper whispered under his breath.
"Anyway, the only reason we're really here is about Aurafu. He may not be dead because I called him yesterday, and he actually picked up, but..."
"Then where is he? People wanted to talk to him." Volstro asked.
"Talk to him about what? From what I could tell from his surroundings in the call, it looks like he was in the Mushroom Kingdom." Dry Bones
"Wait, you called him!?"
"Well, Silver did f#!k up your Game Boy too, so I don't blame you for being for violence against women."
"You're avoiding my question. Whatever, I'll go find Palkia and get back home in a flash, but don't know what to do with the Christmas present now."
"Christmas is not even canon in Celetris, so I'll just..." He snatches the present away from Kooper and runs.
The other three chase Dry Bones down the Badlands, to Silver's house.
"I just wanted to apologize to Grachon with a present."
Loading Silver and Noiwave's house.
As they enter, they find alcohol bottles in the trash can, like a lot of alcohol bottles. Many of them looked to be containing something strong, too. But other than that, it seemed fairly well taken care of. Sure, there were some dust spots, and the sink looked like it could use a wash, but it was overall fairly clean.
"Dammit, again? Excuse me, Kresin and Volstro, my friend here is... well, you already know the implications of… that." Kooper points to the trash can. "Silver, get down here!"
She comes down holding a naval cannon with a stock, a Handgermit. Upon seeing Kooper, she gasps, and sets it down. "Oh hey Kooper, wasn't expecting to see you here."
"I live here!"
"Who are these two? They're your friends?" She asked.
"At least I hope so..."
"We are. C'mon, little guy, have a little faith."
"Life changing words like that is why you're my SS tier friend, Kresin." Kooper hugs the Zoroark by the leg. "Can you come with us, Silver? I'll even let you beat the Void Shadow out of Aurafu. Just don't kill him."
"Yeah, I'll come," she says, picking up the naval cannon with a stock and trigger and flicking the hammer up. She then rests it on her shoulder "And sure, i'll try my best not to kill him the first chance I get. No promises tho"
Volstro turns and folds his arms. "We might not have a choice."
"But… Can we do this?. His health points need to be zero, if that's what it takes. Aurafu would not do this willingly. This could be my very last mission if I don't make it, but I would not want it any other way if we set Aurafu free." Kooper stares down at his Star Rod, collecting his thoughts for a moment.
"You won't die, I'll make f#!king sure of it." Silver hugs Kooper.
"As much as this is entertaining... Are we just going to stand around all day?" Volstro asked.
"Yeah, I'm getting bored, too." Kresin yawns.
"... The Loading screen can interrupt our conversation, which is something we have done little of late."
"What's with you and loading screens? We might be Video Game characters, but we're not being controlled by people behind their computers... like video game characters… Kooper has a point, just do it!"
"Yeah. Hurry and f!#king load already!" Silver demands.
One loading screen later, they find Palkia somewhere in Celetris and they send the five of them to the Mushroom Kingdom. When they got their land into Kooper's old village, it was destroyed, with the trees on fire and all the inhabitants knocked out on the ground.
"We're late to the party." Volstro jokes.
"Now's not the timmean,e for jokes, dude."
"I wasn't." Volstro draws his blades.
What about my old house!? Kooper rushes over to it and sees that it was demolished. It was nothing much, but this left him now on his knees.
"H-hey, Kooper, it can't be that bad. I mean, your house was only one room with not that much stuff in it-"
"It doesn't matter how big or small it was... THAT WAS THE ONLY HOWE I HAD!" Kooper punches the ground.
"And we can rebuild it once we complete our task."
Silver comes to his side, trying her best to make him feel better.
"Why would it matter at this point? They pulled me away from my world to save another, there is no going back." Kooper covered his head with his hood and just lay on the ground.
"It's only getting worse, look!" Dry Bones points to a giant footprint.
Silver gives him a motivating hug, lifting him back up to his feet.
"He's gonna get it now!" Kooper calls Aurafu on his Game Boy.
"What do you want now- Ah, why look so hot headed today, Kooper. You look pretty sick, go get a shroom."
"You're not Aurafu! You're a stupid Void Shadow in his body. I'll come and rip you right out of him!" Kooper points directly at him on the screen.
"Let him do his thing. A little rage hurt no one."
"Show that goopy son of a bitch who's boss!"
"And all your other friends out here as well for me to bash their weird heads in. Kalvin Koopa, Gex if he was a Pokémon, adopted stinky bat and... I can't even think of one for you, Kresin, you're pretty good, but I'm better." Aurafu laughs like an absolute villain. "And don't pretend I forgot about you, Kalvin. Mind if I told all of your meat bags the truth about you?"
"You're bluffing! I see you're at the Crystal Palace. You can kill everyone else all you want, and I'll still outlast you!" Dry Bones takes the Game Boy and throws it on the ground. "We can get to the Crystal Palace if we go through the sewers and find the right pipe to Shiver City."
"Eww... the sewers? Gross. I don't wanna crawl down a sewer pipe.. imagine how many f!#king drug needles and corpses went through them" Silver shudders."And all the s!#t too, I guess…"
"You're wasting our time, excuse me but I have to do this." Kooper grabs Silver and shoves her down a warp pipe head first.
Silver slides down the pipe, shouting profanities as she goes.
One sewer trip and visit to Shiver City later, the five make it to the Crystal Palace, a 'mirror' filled castle with puzzles in every which way that were solved years before when Kooper was on his adventure with Mario and remembered the time when he got framed there. When they got to the very end of the Palace and outside, it was nothing but a snowy cliff and a throne with a staff next to it.
"F!#kin' hell. They really went ham on the mirrors.. I guess the name "Crystal Palace" speaks for itself" Silver said, pulling bits of trash off of her fur.
"Sewers aren't so bad if you don't wade in the slush, you know." Volstro looks around. "But yeah, there are way too many mirrors here."
"There's probably a lot of hidden passageways, and a lot of spots where enemies could ambush us." Silver approaches the mirror and tries to touch it.
"Leave it to the experts of the place, so right here we have a-" Dry Bones covering his nose."The stupid snow outside most of washed it off! They can't see this!"
"No matter, because there is a save block and HP block in this last room." Kooper enters the room and sees a set of switches connected to a massive Bowser bomb. "Why is there a Mario Party mini-game in here?"
"Dude, we've got no idea what you're talking about. Can't we just press 'em all?" Kresin walks on in.
"Huh..? Well, that's strange. And I don't advise you to do that Kooper, one could be a trap. "
When Vostro and Dry Bones walked into the safe room, the door closed, trapping them all in the room. Volstro pushes the farthest lever, Kooper pushes the middle one and prays that it does not go off. Thankfully, both were safe, and they sighed in relief.
"You're all peasants. There are no coins or stars on the line." Dry Bones pressed one of the last two ones, but did nothing. "... Stop doing that, that's more suspense!"
Kresin hesitates for a moment... before picking the one on the left. It was a trick, as it was the last switch and the bomb counts down.
"Arceus dammit, Zoraork," Silver groaned and ducks down.
Kresin blinks rapidly. "...Oh... Son of a-"
The bomb explodes, and they all fly outside in ashes. All they see is nothing but a snowy cliff and a throne with a staff next to it.
"Ah, had fun with the luck based mini-game back there?" A familiar voice said.
"AURAFU!" Kooper screams.
"That's what they call me. Looks like you caught me just playing Paper Mario on the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack." Aurafu lies on the thrones smirking.
"That's my Nintendo Switch, and how did you sign into my account and buy the Expansion Pack!?"
"Well, why have all your passwords in a notebook like a responsible person?"
"How dare you use my EShop credit to spend that much money for a bad emulator just to play a game with me in it?"
"To show all of our friends your first ever appearance when you were so much younger." Aurafu shows them just that with the game itself.
"That shell is my everything. That bomb felt like nothing when it exploded. And I have to wear underwear just in case I get mugged again" Kooper crosses his arms and looks away.
Aurafu chuckles to himself. "And don't think I forgot about you, Kalvin. "This dead Koopa ain't so bone dry as I thought he was. Want more proof."
"You're bluffing, fatty bear!" Dry Bones steps back and Aurafu throws some armor and rocket blaster towards him, his bones shiver and rattle like no one has ever seen before.
"Look, they recruited us to help fight you, so at least humor them, Aurafu. Or are you too much of a coward to accept a moral challenge?" Said Volstro.
"I'm down to give you guys a bear ass beating. You four like to hear a little flashback of how I turned into this fusion form?"
Loading flashback to chapter 9, before Astral Mountain . After Kooper and company were ordered to leave by Aurafu, the mountain gets striked by more Void Shadows, spawning out a distorted portal, possessing the Pokémon that were living and escaping the mountain.15 minutes later, all the void shadows gathered in one place while Seriph and Rena dragged Aurafu towards Giratina, which was to wait when he descended from the sky. Seriph kicks Aurafu to the center of a beacon, casting the spell that traps the host in said beacon by creating a firewall around the bear. Giratina's plan was to shadow force Aurafu and steal his aura powers that were given to him, which would transfer once Giratina got to the other end.
Giratina strikes Aurafu using shadow force.

A blast between Aurafu and Giratina blows the Renegade Pokemon away from taking control. The void shadow starts to glitch from Aurafu, which slowly separates from Aurafu, melting on the ground and making multiple forms of other Pokémon,only to fail and die off
The bite from Aurafu's arm glows and regains his energy back to normal. The remaining aura that Rena had in her system at the time she bit him was still in there. This caused him to evolve into Aurafu/Lucario fusion, complete with blue fur, appendages, spikes and his hands and chest, and an outfit and staff resembling a legendary aura guardian. With a deep glare in his eyes, he jumps off a wall and strikes Giratina with the staff.
"Getting out of this place, you water bear soon. I'll come back for my hugs." Seriph attempts to flee the scene.
Aurafu tackles hugs and stabs Seriph with his new chest spike. "Why not now? The tables have turned in my favor. I would stick around, but I'm getting too old to be babysitting two edgy furries that think they are better than everyone for surviving a traumatic childhood. Get over yourself. Everyone has it rough.
Metaphorically, Seriph flashes his fangs. His fur glows a lot and turns bright red because he's injured.
"Dammit, ya bear, you've only caused us trouble. I'm only gonna see you die as the villain, even if I'm not alive, you're gonna cause many people's deaths… creating you was the only barrier to existence, you see we aren't the only one chasing ya, we actually succeeded in one part. The aura guardian that was supposed to come back only failed the others. My bite marks were supposed to nullify you and create gaps between this process, but it only created for the aura to spark, you lucky bastard.
Aurafu picks up his Game Boy Horror and walks over to Giratina, towering over the fellow legendary, and threatens it so it can teleport him out of Celetris.
Aurafu picks up his Game Boy Horror and walks over to Giratina, towering over the fellow legendary, and threatens it so it can teleport him out of Celetris.
Also, Seriph funny enough looked upon you. Ever since the death of his brother, you were always the one for him to take care of him. What happened then once you took him in as a cub?
"This must be that other timeline you speak of, and I frankly don't care, because that was a different Urshifu. Palkia told us I, Kooper and Noiwave were killed in that timeline. None if this matters as that was an alternative version of us, you see.
Giratina opens a portal to the Distortion World to escape with Aurafu. The fusion grabs Giratina by the tail, knocks Seriph and Rena into the portal, followed by Giratina, not before forcing it to make a portal to the Mushroom Kingdom.
"So long, gay Giratina!"
Loading back to the present.
"Que the end credits, if that were so simple." Aurafu rested on his throne.
"That was too much right there. Are you taking care of Seriph in the old timeline? That sounds dumb. Also, before you ask Silver, yes Silver, there is apparently an alternative timeline we're we die." Said Kooper.
"Well, that isn't all that surprising. There's an alternate timeline for everything. Hell, there probably is an alternate timeline where we're firing nukes at each other from halfway around Celestris."
"But you know one thing that will surprise you all?" Aurafu throws a snowball at Dry Bones, paint melted off of his face, revealing that his bones were black and Turquoise. "Dry Bones is not who you guys think he was."
Aurafu shows them a military personal file of Dry Bones, containing his real name and picture from when he was still alive.
"Born and raised in Sarasaland before he joined Bowser's army at a young age, that's right. Our Kalvin right here was a bad guy in the good old days of youth. It's a damn shame you had to live your afterlife as a lie, ain't it? I'll be nice and kill you again."
"It's my pleasure, ready to die." Dry Bones was no more, as he wiped the remaining paint off of himself and grew a single wing on his back.
Kalvin knocks everyone out of the way and strikes Aurafu punches him down into a pile of bones, only for Kalvin to come back together and steal Aurafu's staff. Kalvin swoops into the air to bash his head with his own staff and baits him by stepping on his head so he can stab Aurafu in his stomach with the horn on his nose.
"Kalvin, you can at least make him faint, don't kill him!" Kooper got up off the ground.
Aurafu pushes Kalvin out of him and runs over to Kooper to choke him by the neck. "Then it's your turn to become a pair of bones."
Kooper's star rod blinks red in his hand and all of his power ups he had retreated inside it. A small fire flower symbol appeared on the star rod and it automatically gave one to Kooper, turning his outfit to be all white, which caught Aurafu off enough so Kooper could shoot him in the face with a fireball, and get out of his grasp. Silver scowled up, turned to Aurafu, and lunged, slashing at him with Dragon Claw.
grabs her back with her tail to swing her in circles, knocking the others down and throwing her off the cliff. "Bye-bye."
Che clung onto the cliff before sneakily climbing back up. Firing a dragon pulse at him, "I have wings, dumbass. "
"I'm not dumbass, I'm Aurafu you dumbass. And what are you two over there doing staring into space like you're away from not breathing?" Aurafu points directly at Kresin and Volstro.
That specific pair didn't seem to answer, as several more appeared around the room. Kresin summoned an army of illusions. Silver charges yet again, hitting him with a dragon claw
"Your dirty little claws will be ripped off!" Aurafu tries to counter her with close combat, when Kooper comes to interrupt the move. "You've really become a Noivern's boy since we last met, Kooper."
"Aurafu's stats may match a Mega Lucario now! He is on some Uber shit now!" Kalvin watches from afar.
"Shut up, dragon ball wannabe," Silver swoops in and goes for another slash.
Everyone else continued to surround Aurafu with one winged Dry Bones. After Silver said what she did, he just closed his eyes before pulling out a Bomb-omb. "Kooper... please take good care of Latias for me. My work here is done. Why wait?"
"Okay listen, we don't have to do this!" Kooper lets his guard down, begging Kalvin not to hurt Aurafu. Aurafu Takes as an opportunity to punch and pin him down to the ground in the cold snow.
"You thought you were so clever in trying to counter me with that fire, but face it Kooper, I will never accept you or Kalvin as Fakemon where they come from. And they are only friends with you because you two are their last resort as friends, but will soon drop you once they find actual Pokémon to be comrades with. You two should stay where you belong, and that's in this ridiculous Kingdom you used to call home."
"And you will soon find another home for yourself."
Kalvin found the opportunity to strike when Aurafu was fighting the others, tackling him off the cliff of the Crystal Palace. The Bomb-omb Kalvin was holding blew up in the air, causing his body to break apart, as well as causing Aurafu to faint, losing his blue color in his fur as it reverted to the usual gray. Kooper ran over to the cliff to witness his worst fear becoming a reality, looking down the cliff completely horrified.
"..." Kooper just simply turned around to walk back in the Crystal Palace, looking at the other three with an unamused look on his face before leaving. "He went there… he really went there."
The other three follow Kooper back into the Crystal Palace.
Silver walked next to Kooper. "And now he's dead."
"YEAH, NO S#!T, SILVER!" Kooper snaps at her. "I knew you were gonna say something!
She flinches as Kooper walks away. Volstro and Kresin stand by her side, scolding her for acting carelessly.
"This is serious Silver, Aurafu is… gone." Kresin sighs. "Little guys looked all over for nothing. Now we have to mentally prepare for Kooper's sake.
"Next year will be the most trying year as a rescue team." Volstro sighs.
