Chapter 709 Aether

I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.

Hank was walking around Ever After and he was going through a forest.

"I wonder what kind of Pokémon could be here?"He said.

He then sees Darling going up to him."I'm also curious to seeing these amazing creatures."

Pikachu came and she pets him.

Hank showed Darling the wonders of Pokémon making her want to see more of them.

"Pika."Pikachu smiles.

"Well we are going to need to find them first."Hank said.

"Excuse me."They heard someone.

They looked back and saw a woman, she has blonde long hair with silver streaks and green eyes. She wears a white dress with a diamond badge on it, black and white leggings, and boots of the same color, with green soles. Her boots have a medium-height yellow heel to them.

"Who are you?"Hank said and Pikachu runs behind him.

"I am Lusamine, I'm a researcher looking into the appearance of many Pokémon."She said.

He got surprised, he did remember the Pokémon came from a different world, could she be from that world.

"I see, but why are you here?"He said.

"I saw that you have your own Pokémon and I would like to request your help."She said.

"Oh then we would gladly help."Darling said.

Hank then pulls her away surprising Darling.

"Darling you can't just accept help just like that."He said.

"But it would be good to see what she knows, she might be a scientist."Darling said.

He looks at Lusamine and he has a bad feeling.

"Okay, let's see what she can do."He said.

Lusamine smiles."Thank you."

She goes with them and they looked around, they then saw a Bounsweet smiling around.

"Oh, Bounsweet."Lusamine smiles.

"It's so cute."Darling said.

Rotom came."Bounsweet. A delectable aroma pours from its body. They are often swallowed whole by Toucannon lured by that wafting deliciousness."

"That's terrible."Darling frowns.

"It's just how life works."Lusamine said.

Hank looks at her and then noticed Bounsweet glowing."She's evolving."

Then she became Steenee."Stee."

"Wow."Darling said.

"Steenee. This Pokémon is always bouncing around energetically. Other Pokémon are attracted by its lively appearance and pleasant aroma."Rotom said.

Pikachu smiles smelling the aroma.

"Well try to catch it, it can be a good one."Lusamine looks at Hank.

"Well okay."He said.

He takes out his pokeball Arrow and shoots it.

Steenee sensed it and jumps away.

"Well we'll have to fight."He said."Go Litleo!"

Litleo appeared."Lit."

"Use Ember!"Hank said.

Litleo shoots emembers at Steenee.

"That's mean."Darling said."It didn't attack."

"It would have, Hank can tell it was going to fight him."Lusamine said and she smirks.

Darling looks at her and wonders how she's so calm.

Steenee uses Razor Leaf and hits Litleo making him grunt.

"Litleo."Hank said.

She then strikes the smaller one many times making the cub grunt even more before he started to glow surprising the Steenee.

"Yeah!"Hank said.

Litleo evolved into Pyroar."Roar."

"Wow."Darling said.

"Pyroar, use Flamethrower!"Hank said.

He charges before shooting it at Steenee hitting her against a tree knocking her out.

"Go, Great Ball."He throws it at her making Steenee go inside of it.

They waited and it stops shaking.

"Very good."Lusamine smiles.

Hank picks up the ball and said:"So what now?"

"Can we talk alone for a bit, it's something important."Lusamine said.

He shrugs and goes with her, Darling then saw something come out of Lusamine's pocket being a letter.

While they were off she picks it up.

"I know I shouldn't be reading someone elses belongings but..."She opens the letter.

She reads it and she got shocked to what she saw.

With Hank

He was talking to Lusamine in a empty part.

"So what do you want to talk about?"He asked.

"Well I would like to say that we can work very well together."She smiles.

"Really?"He said.

"Yes, with your creative ways of catching them and your Pokémon can make many Pokémon be caught with ease."She said.

"Well I can see where your going."He said.

She goes up to his face surprising him.

"I think you can be a good one for me too."She goes to kiss him.

But then she backs away avoiding a sword slash.

Hank saw Darling with the sword."Darling."

"Hank, you were right she's evil."Darling said.

"So she is up to something."Hank looks at Lusamine.

Darling pulls the letter out."She's working with your enemies, she wants to turn the Pokémon into displays for her collection."

Hank glares at Lusamine.

She starts to chuckle."Oh well, but what I said about you is real, after the failures my two children turned out to be, I had to get a new husband to make new ones."

"Why you!"He charged at her but Lusamine vanishes.

"But do consider my love."She chuckles before her voice was gone.

They looked around for her and Darling said:"Hank, I'm so sorry, we should have never trusted her."

"What matters nothing bad happened."Hank said.

He also wonders about her children, since this turning out like Ragyo all over again.

With Lusamine

She was at a white room and was sitting down.

"Well that didn't end well, thanks to that brat."Lusamine said.

A bright light happened."But there is still hope."

Lusamine saw Ragyo and smiles."Hello Ragyo."

"They might have saw through your deception, but you are still strong, so it's only a matter of time for you to have children from your chosen mate."Ragyo said.

"Yes, Hank is good for me, the one chosen BT Arceus will make it a perfect child."She grins.

Ragyo and Lusamine are friends since they saw each other as kindred spirits.

They held hands and said:"Let's keep making the worlds beautiful."

Note: Here's Lusamine and she is basically trying to get Hank like how Ragyo wants Leonidas, Lusamine's children still exist and will appear later.
