A leaf that fell

"Sir we have an issue!" One of the team plasma grunts rushed into Ghetsis's hall, face to face with him in his thrown,

"What is it grunt?" Ghetsis looked down at the grunt, his face was flushed with fear and confusion, this caused Ghetsis to get visibly concerned as well,

"Well?"

"Out with it!" Ghetsis demanded hitting the armrest of his thrown with his fist,

"Reshiram.." The grunt managed to squeeze out from his mouth still recovering from the shock,

The mere mention of Reshiram's name in a situation like this left Ghetsis visibly concerned,

"Reshiram is gone!"

Ghetsis's eyes widened with fear as he got up from his thrown but as he stood there the silence in the room was all too loud,

he didn't know what to do, for the first time, things weren't going according to plan, so far that he might lose.

Rinng _ Riinng

The sound of a phone call broke the silence,

the grunt pressed a device on his ear accepting the call,

"Send back up! Reshiram has awakened and is keeping the Prince hostage we can't get to him!"

The voice of the call echoed through the room,

"The prince, is in danger?" Ghetsis said to himself,

"Are you still on twist mountain??" The grunt with Ghetsis tried to communicate but the call ended and all that was left was static.

Ghetsis left the room and the grunt followed him,

___

The blaze on Reshiram's tail grew larger, it was enraged but also trying to keep a young boy warm and safe from danger,

Alder smiles and nodded with his arms crossed,

"I get it now,"

As the whole situation went on, Yu sat nearby watching this unfold,

"Everything is as it should be," He said before looking at the entrance to the top of the mountain,

"The only thing left is for you to save them,"

He closed his eyes and smiled to himself, feeling a sense of joy and humor inside.

"And then, we move on to the next,"

I walked through the cave with determined eyes staring right at Reshiram,

"Ayuna," Yu said with a smile as he disappears in a gust of wind,

"Hyper beam!" A voice shouted from within a cave, minutes later releasing a beam of blinding white light straight at Reshiram.

The beast stepped back in pain, struggling to keep N covered from the blast,

Giovanni walked out of the cave with several other team rocket grunts,

Blue turned in their direction in anger but his heart sank when he saw me and Zorua,

"Ayuna?" Blue was shocked,

I couldn't look blue in the eyes, or look at him at all after what I did just now,

"It'll all make sense, I promise," I said staring straight at Reshiram,

I walked closer and closer to Reshiram, it was injured from the blast it struggles to regain its composure but by the time it did I was already in front of him,

"I'm sorry," I said, petting its head.

"Ayuna it's dangerous! Get out of there!" Blue eyes filled with fear, not wanting me to get hurt,

"It's fine Blue," I said with a smile,

Reshiram looks at me with rage and hostility, it opened its mouth for a blast,

but it stopped, as if.. someone convinced him,

Reshiram turned back into its stone form revealing N who was passed out under its wing for a while,

"Hey buddy," I said kneeling to the ground to pick him up,

His eyes were swollen from all the crying he did,

and face scratched from the impact when he passed out and hit the floor,

I walked over to team plasma, and handed N over,

Blue watched on confused as to what I was doing.

"Why would you give the kids back to those grunts??" He asked grabbing my shoulder and forcing me to face him,

and forcing me to face him,

"Because,"

"Some things, shouldn't be changed..." I said to him with pain in my voice,

Alder placed his hand on Blue's shoulder to comfort him,

"Just let him do his thing," Alder said smiling,

Blue let go of my shoulder and stepped aside,

I turned to Giovanni and he smiled,

walking up to the two dragons and picking them up,

"It's been a pleasure working with you,"

"Hold on," I said,

staring straight at him,

"Where's Chloe,"

Giovanni smiled, "Of course, silly me,"

He snapped his fingers, and Mavery came walking out of the crowd with a bag the size of an adult,

she tossed the bag in my direction, it landed on the floor with a big thud,

slowly, I opened the bag, arms trembling breathing inconsistently,

"Please, please, please, please" I muttered under my breath as I opened the bag,

There I saw Chloe her head was bleeding and her skin pale,

she...

she wasn't breathing,

Tears dropped onto her face as I looked over her, the cold hard ground she laid upon and I kneeled upon, doing nothing to comfort us,

I took her out of the bag and hugged her corpse tightly her cold skin embracing mine, A cold feeling I felt all too familiar with, a cold feeling I started my journey with,

"No, no, no, no, no," I muttered to myself,

"No!" Tears I cried ugly tears as I held her corpse,

"Chloe, wake up! Chloe!"

"Please,"

"This is no time for games Chloe!"

My hands turns into fists gripping at her team rocket uniform as I cried,

"We were supposed to be traveling together! You were supposed to see me become champion! We were supposed to.."

" Chloe...come back!!"

"She put up quite the struggle," Giovanni complimented as he gave the stones to the grunts,

"But, she was no match for my grunts,"

"Why.." I said my voice shaking,

"Why did you do this?"

"Huh?" Giovanni looked at me,

one of his hands was in his pockets and pokeball in hand just in case,

"That was part of the deal, you came late so I held up my end," he smiled,

I got up from the ground my arms balled up into a fist,

I reached into my pocket and threw a pokeball to the field,

Charmeleon came out ready to battle,

I closed my eyes and wiped the tears from my face,

when my eyes opened the pupil in my left eye turned white and an aura appeared from Charmeleon,

his flame got bigger and flames started to sprout from his back,

Giovanni's eyes widened in surprise,

'Morphing huh? This is the first time I've ever seen it in person, I thought it was impossible' Giovanni thought to himself observing both me and Charmeleon,

"You're not going any further with this!" I shouted, my voice echoing through the mountains,

Giovanni tossed his pokeball and Nidoking came out,

"You think you can stop me??"

"I'd like to see you try child!" Giovanni shouted,

The atmosphere was tense and Charmeleon was ready to battle,

Blue and Alder did nothing but watch the battle, there wasn't much they could do.

"You'll pay for what you did,"
