Chapter 10-A Strong Connection of Friendship
L.T: *Tossing books* No…nope…nuh-uh…HEY! I was looking for this water spell book for a week now!
Kleo: Light Trainer, could you please concentrate!
L.T: Sorry, Kleo.
The Mobian Trainers, their Pokémon, and Sonic's friends soon were in the castle library and, like L.T said, there were a ton of books ranging from myths and legends, to spell books, to even normal novels and mangas. That mostly has fictional fantasies and adventures, as well as the Twilight Saga and a few others for Dark Draygoon, in that section. They were looking for a special book in particular that had the spell to help out with communicating with Sonic that L.T picked up on one of her many trips to the Pokémon World.
Knuckles: *Looking at one section on a ladder* What is that book we are looking for again?
Leafeon: *Pawing at a book* A spell book in the ancient Unown Text that has many spells from the Pokémon World, including the one we are looking for.
Shadow: *Rolled by on another ladder* Unown Text? What's that?
Chatot: *Flying by with another book in its claws* The ancient Unown Text is said to be created when the ancient people first found the Unown, mysterious Pokémon that look familiar to the common alphabet, which include the question and exclamation marks. The text looks like your alphabet, but oddly shaped, and seems to have an eye in it, just like the Unown.
Knuckles: O.K, but what are the Unown exactly?
Banette: *Floating by* Unown are Pokémon with mysterious power. Some say they can make dreams and wishes become reality, while others say they leave stones that lead to treasure in a part of the world Sonic is in. No one knows for sure what they are, and they say they are more mysterious than us Ghost-types.
Shadow: Creepy. I'm going to look at another section. *Rolls away*
In another part of the library, Tails came upon an old, black book that seemed to have the letter "A" on it with an eye in the middle. He flew off his ladder and ran up to L.T, who was chewing out Noburyuu for reading on the job.
L.T: Listen we are looking FOR a book, not looking AT a book!
Noburyuu: Sorry. These books just got me distracted.
L.T: Uhh…for the love of-
Tails: Hey Light Trainer! Is this the book?
He passed it to her, and as she skimmed through it, her eyes lit up behind her glasses.
L.T: This is it! This is the book of Unown Spells! Nice job!
Tails: *Blushing* Aww it was nothing.
She soon called out to everyone, and they all gathered around a table that she put the book down on. She turned towards the middle of the book where the spell was and here is what it said in the Unown Text.
"Friends of one in our world
Let your hearts be one with our spell
So you may speak with the one in their dreams
That was chosen to help us and bring peace as well"
Amy: Is this the spell we need?
L.T: Yep and as you can see below it, in order for the spell to work, we have to have a Pokémon that switched worlds with him in the room.
Amy: And that's Lucario!
L.T: Exactly! As long as Lucario is nearby, I only have to do this spell once and you guys can talk to Sonic when he sleeps, which is right about now, if I'm guessing right! Let's do this in the main hall!
They all gathered into the main hall, with the Mobian Trainers and their Pokémon close to the wall so they wouldn't mess up anything. They all agreed for Tails to be the first one to communicate to Sonic so he got close to Lucario while Light Trainer, with her staff and the book open in her hands, got ready to do her job as a Spellcaster Kitsune. She spoke the words of the book, with her staff raised, and soon, small Pokémon that looked exactly like the text surrounded the two of them and filled the area with a strong, yet calm, soothing power and they felt a connection to Sonic. The twin-tailed kitsune decided to call out to his friend.
Tails: Sonic? Can you hear me?
Sonic: Yeah I can hear you. Can you hear me?
Tails was so overjoyed to hear the voice of the hedgehog that felt like a brother to him for so long, that he felt like crying.
Tails: Yeah! Yeah I can! I-I don't believe it! The spell worked so far! Hold on a sec!
He called out to Amy, Knuckles, and Shadow to come into the ring of Unown, and when they did, a bright light filled the space within and they all soon saw Sonic, who at this point was a green-eyed Riolu.
Sonic: *Tearing in the eyes* G-guys…you're here.
Amy: Hi Sonic!
Knuckles: Hey Sonic!
Lucario: Hello Sonic.
Shadow: *Smirking* Hello, faker.
Sonic: *Chuckling* You haven't called me that for a long while, Shads. *Sniffs*
Knuckles: What's up with you? You don't usually cry.
Sonic: *Wipes eyes with his arm* S-sorry…I'm just happy to see you guys!
Amy: And we're happy to see you! You look cute as a Riolu.
Sonic: *Blushes* Now you're embarrassing me, Amy!
Lucario: Have you figured out what to do in my world.
Sonic soon told them about the events that unfolded from meeting Alakazam, to starting his team, doing rescue missions, learning techniques, battling Zapdos, restoring the Electric Crystal, and the info from Xatu.
Tails: That's amazing!
Knuckles: I'll say! That sounds crazier than what we went through!
Shadow: So you're going to find the other crystals, right?
Sonic: I sure will!
Soon the power started to fade.
Lucario: Looks like it's time for us to go for now.
Sonic: Are you going to tell the others?
Amy: We sure will! And we'll always visit you in your dreams!
Sonic: Thanks guys. I'll see you later!
They all said goodbye before the power faded completely and the Unown disappeared. They all felt relieved to see that the blue hedgehog was alright and that he knew what to do. They soon were aware of their original surroundings when Dark Draygoon spoke.
Dark: So did it work?
Tails: Yeah it worked! It really worked! I…I…*Starts to cry*
Jynx: Aww…*Hugs Tails*
Aaron: I can't blame him one bit.
T.K: Neither can I, Aaron. Neither can I.
Shadow, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Lucario thanked the Mobian Trainers, told what happened, and they promised to visit as they left to tell the others about Sonic, unaware that a Pokémon that was a blue and white cross between a dragon and a jet with red eyes and a red mark flew overhead watching them. It soon landed near Travis who greeted it happily.
Travis: Hey there, Latios. What's going on?
Latios: Nothing much except the strange lightning storms stopped all of a sudden and I was wondering if you knew something.
Travis: Yep, the chosen hedgehog, or Riolu right now, had restored the Electric Crystal and is on his way to find the others.
Latios: Really? That's great! I'll go tell Latias right away! Oh! One more thing, he might head over to another part of my world when he's done with the crystals. At least, that's what Celebi says.
Travis: Hmm…that's definitely something to tell L.T and the others. Say hi to your sister for me!
Latios: I sure will!
As he flew off, a few questions entered his mind; Will Sonic succeed with the crystals? Will the Pokémon guarding them be too much of a challenge? And will he make it to the other area? Only time and the wind might tell.
END NOTES: 10 down and only 13 to go before I finish uploading what I got of my story so far!
This chapter is another one of my faves because you get a bit of info about the Unown from me watching Pokemon the 3rd Movie as well as playing the games. Plus I nearly cried to this chapter as I was writing it!
What is also interesting about this chapter is that you get to meet Travis' friend Latios! Sparky wanted to have Latios just travelling around so I did just that.
Please R&R and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
