"Do not disturb the harmony of fire, ice or lightning, lest these titans wreak destruction upon the world they clash. Though the water's great guardian will arise to quell the fighting, alone its song will fail, lest the earth shall turn to ash. O Chosen One, into thy hands, bring together all three. Their treasures combined tame the Beast of the Sea."

A girl, around 17 years old, was remembering that prophecy. She was wearing a black tank top with some blue jeans and white slippers. At first, she found it silly. She thought it was just a legend, a story. But she was quickly proven wrong.

"Melody?"

Melody turned, hearing her boyfriend calling for her. There was Rudy. He is 18 years old now. Melody had earned the heart of the young gym leader.

He asked, "What are you doing here again?"

Melody honestly answered, "Just going down memory lane."

Rudy questioned, "You worried about the parties coming up in Pallet Town?" When she didn't respond, the gym leader knew that he had his answer. He added, "I know you had a thing for Ash and I had a thing for Misty but it is time to move on."

Melody waved her hands in front of her, "I wasn't arguing that but I can't shake this feeling that something is coming."

Rudy thought for a moment before he replied, "Well, if something is coming, I'm protecting you."

Melody slightly teased, "You sure I won't be the one protecting you?"

To that, Rudy could only laugh. It was at this point, Mahri had found them. She is 14 years old now.

Mahri told them, "You two coming or not, big brother?"

Rudy replied, "Don't worry, Mahri. We're coming." He then turned to Melody, offering his hand. He teased, "May I escort you to the airport, me lady?"

Melody rolled her eyes but took his hand, lacing their fingers. "You are so lucky you're handsome."

To that, Rudy laughed more. With that, they walked off, Mahri right behind them.

Mahri turned to Melody and asked, "So why were you down at the shrine again?"

Before Rudy could shoo her away, Melody looked at Mahri. She admitted, "I just have a bad feeling."

Mahri understood that as she just nodded. She stated, "Well, look at the bright side, at least the legendary birds don't live around here anymore."

To that, Melody was grateful. Lugia had arisen from the deepest of the ocean to tell Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres to leave the area. It didn't want another fight to break out between the legendary birds and it would be safer for them to just leave the area. So that's what they did. No one knew where the birds were now, except Slowking and Lugia. Melody never asked either of them where they went as she didn't think it was important...

"Melody?"

The musician perked up. She saw that Rudy and Mahri were looking at her with concern. Apparently the three of them had made it to the airport.

She apologized, "Sorry, just on edge."

Rudy reassured, "Don't be sorry, you're leaving this island for the first time in a long time. There's nothing to be sorry for."

Mahri replied, "Big bro is right. We should get to Pallet Town and join the party."

Melody hugged them both, kissing Rudy's cheek. She was lucky to have them.

...

"How's the decorations coming, Max?"

Max turned to the voice in question, seeing that it was his sister talking to him. May, Drew, Harley, Solidad, and him were helping Ms. Ketchum decorate.

Max reported, "So far so good. Treecko and I are getting the balloons set."

Treecko said, "Tree!"

True to his word, there were balloons filled with helium. They had two balloons on each table and two at the entrance. Max turned to his sister.

He asked, "How's it going with you and Drew? Getting the tables set?"

May said, "Yeah with Blaziken and Roserade's help, this is going much faster."

Blaziken said, "Bla!"

Roserade said, "Rose!"

Solidad teased, "I'm surprised Ms. Ketchum didn't ask you for your help with the food, May."

To that, May blushed out of embarrassment.

Harley added, "Oh, come on, hun. You know as well as I do that May would eat more than help."

Solidad giggled when she saw May flush more. Cacturne and Slowbro were helping their trainers too. They were putting up the chairs and more tables. Before May could say anything else, they heard a familiar voice.

"That more sounds like Ash."

Everyone turned, seeing Dawn and Piplup there. With them was Kenny.

"Dawn!" May gushed.

"May!" Dawn gushed right back, hugging the brunette.

"Piplup!" Piplup said, running off to join Blaziken.

Dawn said, "I'm so glad to be here!" She turned to Max and asked, "Is this your brother?"

May answered, "Mhm, that's Max and his Treecko."

Max waved, to which Dawn had eagerly waved back.

Kenny asked, "Is there anything we can do to help?"

Drew told him, "Well, we could use a hand with setting up more tables. Ms. Ketchum said that there were a lot of people coming."

"Hello everyone!"

Everyone turned, seeing Iris and Cilan arriving. They were holding hands.

May smiled, "Hey Iris and Cilan!"

Dawn blinked, "I can't believe it! Are you two together?"

Cilan confirmed, "Yes, we've been together ever since Iris became champion of Unova."

Iris admitted, "What a day it was."

Max asked, "So where's Alder these days anyways?"

Iris answered, "Last I heard that he was taking a much needed break in Kalos."

"I can confirm that."

That's when Serena, Clemont, and Bonnie had arrived.

Harley waved, "Ah, there they are. The Kalos gang."

Solidad replied, "Glad to see you all here."

Serena responded, "Thanks, Solidad. I'm so excited for this party."

Clemont nodded in agreement, "Perhaps we could help, what do you think, Bonnie?" He looked around, seeing that his sister was gone. He asked, "Bonnie...?"

Serena tapped on his shoulder. Clemont looked at her and saw that she was pointing. That's when he looked, sweatdropping as he did. Bonnie was near May, Solidad, and Dawn. She was going to go over to Iris too but saw that she was holding hands with Cilan. She bent down to the three of them.

Bonnie gushed, "Would any of you beautiful ladies be interested in dating my brother...?"

Before Clemont could react, Max did. He pulled Bonnie by her ear.

He said, "Good grief, you are worse than Brock!"

Everyone sweatdropped, Clemont was ever so grateful to Max.
