[color="#A0522D"]"Eh? Oh, hey there, I'm Alexander Carlin, but everyone calls me Alex. Yeh, you're the one who just lost...Still, that Metang of yours kicked arse. Anyway, I'm set up to battle next, so you can watch me if you want." Suddenly, an idea struck him. "Hey, can you help me train this Aron here? He's having trouble using Head Smash, so I think an actual battle is just what he needs. You up for some sparring?"[/color]

[Zextra]

"Sure. I've got nothing else to do" Kier said. "Go, Metagross!" Kier shouted, revealing his newly evolved Metagross. "Remember, Metagross. Don't go too hard on it. Aron's just practicing" Kier explained to Metagross. "Alright. I'm ready when you are" he shouted to Alex. "Next time I go up against Shibi, I'm going to wipe him straight out!" Kier thought as he patted Metagross' hard, metallic head.

[Dementuo]

Zura Trancella looked around. "I guess I'll tell you my story, though I would prefer to know my audience." Trancella said.

Glory came out from behind Trancella. "How did you know?"

"Dont underestimate me, my old friend."
"Well, whatever. If you have a story, then spit it out. We don't have a lot of time."
"Alright, I'll tell you..."

-CYGRUS CHRONICLES: CHAPTER 2-

"After I lost to Glory, I was saddened by my weakness. My mind started to twist, and I became even more Hell bent. I wanted revenge on the manwho had put me back on the bottom. I followed him here, per his request, and I found people who shared my interest. They agreed to help me get revenge, and we scoured the region for the Pokémon that would provide power to me. I came across the mystical stones which sealed the Legendary Pokémon, the Hedrons. There were seven total Hedrons. A Time Hedron, a Space Hedron, an Aqua Hedron, an Earth Hedron, a Fire Hedron, a Sky Hedron, and a seventh Hedron which possesed power from all the other Hedrons, the Dreamstone Hedron. As I approached the Hedrons, I could feel thier power emminating from them. I touched one, and saw flashes of the world. Where hidden things were, when things would happen, had happened, and were happening, many other things as well. Then, there was something else that had happened. Someone formed from the Hedrons when I first brought them together. It was the day I truly formed Team Draconius. There was a great shaking, and the floor collapsed beneath my feet. I fell into a starry expanse, seeing nothing but pitch-black, and the endless flow of stars. There I found a Pokéball. Inside it contained an eigth Hedron. This Hedron was different from the others. When I touched the Hedron, I was back in the mountain cavern. I had brought the seven Hedrons together here, in Mount Aquamarine. After I let go, I was back, falling through the starry expanse once again. I touched what I have now so aptly named the Star Hedron again, and I was back with the Hedrons. Still clutching the Star Hedron, I removed the other Seven Bedrons, and returned them to their rightful places. After I returned them, I kept the Star Hedron as a reminder of their powers. I knew then that those powers could only be accessed AND maintained by the Legendary Pokémon. So, the days went by, and I concluded that the Hedrons were what was keeping the Legendaries sealed."

-END OF CHAPTER-

"...And that's my story." Trancella said.

[Zextra]

Rectus looked at Trancella. "So you're doing this just because you lost one battle..." he said silently. "I understand that it may have been depressing to lose, but is it a cause for you to try to destroy everything in your way? These hedrons....is it really necessary for you to claim their power?" Rectus continued. "Zura, he's not just feeling the need for revenge, but he's infused with it. I'm sorry, but he really took this too far" Rectus whispered to Zura. "Don't think that this is overkill?" rectus shouted to Trancella. "Revenge has carried you too far. Just accept your loss and move on. If you don't get over it, you will not obtain true power..." Rectus said calmly.

[Dementuo]

Trancella didn't listen. "I want to reclaim myself. My wounded pride. When I lost that day, I had my pride destroyed. But in the meantime, here's something that I was supposed to give to you." Trancella threw Glory a Pokéball. "You'll know what to do. And now..." Trancella pulled out a black rock encased by some sort of shell, with an opening at the top. "...I take my leave." Tracella touched the black rock, and disappeared.
Zura looked at the Pokéball he had just been given. "Interesting... Oh, damnit!" Zura turned to Rectus. "I forgot about the two grunts. I'm sorry Rectus, but I can't just leave them down in that hole. I'll be back shortly." Zura said as he rushed out of the cave, called up Charizard, and flew back to Evraflow.

-MEANWHILE-

Trancella appeared back at Barren Colloseum. "I knew that they wouldn't understand my goals. Well, whatever. The only thing that matters is that I get the last two Hedrons... And stop those two..." Trancella walked into Draconius HQ.

[Zextra]

"Tch...Trancella...He gave it away with that Hedron story...the location of his HQ..." Rectus smiled as Zura got on Charizard. "and I'll be taking a...trip..." Rectus said as he boarded Salamence as he headed off for Barren Colosseum. "The first hedron mentioned...the Time Hedron...you were careless, Trancella..." Rectus thought as Salamence soared through the region. Eventually, he landed near Barren Colosseum. "It's got to be here somewhere..." he thought as he took out the energy detector device. He removed a chip from inside and replaced it with another one...one with the image of Team Draconius' insignia on it. The device showed graphs which lines flew off the meter. "There it is..." Rectus thought as he located the sensed area. He stooped down and put his finger on what appeared to be a bottle cap that was littered on the ground. A hole appeared from under him. "This is it..." Rectus thought as he fell down the hole.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Smoke began to appear behind Gradnis Village. A loud noise like trees being cut down instantly surrounded the Village. Pokemon where running out of the forest in fear. Zigzagoones where running everywhere and Staravia's where flying out of the trees, Kakuna's and Metapods and Silcoons and Cascoons where being disturbed, some even died from a fall or a falling tree. It was madness. The noise began to grow closer, and closer to Gradnis Village.

[Ｄｈａｒｃ]

[color="#A0522D"]"Oh, thank you so much. C'mon, Aron, let's do this. Now use Head Sash!" Aron began to gather his power and a light blue aura surrounded his body as hhe charged, but suddenly the energy dissipated, and he ran into Metagross with an attack about the strength of a Headbutt.[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]"Oh, no..."[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]Meanwhile, Zangoose and Electrike were doing some sparring of their own. Electrike fired a Signal Beam which Zangoose dodged expertly before closing in with Fire Punch. Electrike ran around Zangoose and slid, then performed a Spark attack, hitting the Cat Ferret Pokemon square in the back. He then unleashed a Discharge, combining the energy from the Spark with the energy still retained within him to electrocute Zangoose severely. Zangooe fell to the ground, but got up rather quickly. As it did, it spun around and hit Electrike with an X-Scissor, then drove it into the ground with Crush Claw.[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]
[/color]
[color="#48D1CC"]Virgil spoke into the device given to him by Rectus. "Hey, you two. I think Kyogre's arriving. You better come down here and check this out." Kyogre had indeed arrived, but there was something quite disturbing about it-Its pupils were gone. Its now soulless golden eyes stared straight at Virgil, then the water began to rise rapidly, and Virgil escaped with Delibird's aid. Back at the top, he saw Rectus. "Umm...Nevermind. He's kinda PO'ed."[/color]

[Dementuo]

Shibi heard the noises, and rushed outside. He ran into the forest, where Pokémon were running in every which way. "What's going on?!" Shibi looked aroundto try and find the source of the destruction...

-MEANWHILE-

Glory heard the message from Virgil. "What? What's going on down there?!" Zura asked. Then, Zura realized something. "The Hedron... Damnit!" Zura ran back to the top ofthe mountain, only finding the Hedron had been knocked out of it's pedastal. Zura put it back into place. "Is everything alright now?" Zura asked through his transmitter.

-MEANWHILE-

Trancella had gotten word of an intruder. "Interesting that he would find me here. Fortunatley for me, I will soonno longer require this base, and I'll move to another one..." Trancella turned on a speaker which lead into the guards' rooms. "All personel report to Corridor 23-42 immediately. There is an intruder inside the base. I repeat: All personel report to Corridor 23-42 immediately. There is an intruder in the base. This is not a drill. Repeat: This is not a drill." Trancella turned off the speaker, and walked over to the window which overlooked the Barren Colloseum from the volcano, though from the outside it looked like a house with no entrance, and the window was one way.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

They where odd tanks with no gun barrels, with an odd insignia on them. There where ten of them all in a V shape like a flock of Starly. They finally broke through to Gradnis Village, all of the Tanks lined up in one section of Gradnis Village. Suddenly the front of the tank opened up and many, many people came out with pokeballs and matching black, white, and purple uniforms with the same insignia as the tanks. They surrounded the village and one yelled "attack!" all of the people ran into the village and began to raid stores and used pokemon for evil deeds. They forced the people to stay in the village and they couldn't do anything about it! Suddenly a lone figure appeared out of the tank, Maximillion O. Ludicrous. he then took out a transceiver and said, "Dante, come in whenever you are ready..."

[Dementuo]

Shii was horrified by this. "Go Grovyle, Leafeon, and Bulbasar!" Shibi sent out his three Pokémon. "Grovyle, use Leaf Boomerang! Leafeon, use Solar Beam! Bulbasar, use Sleep Powder!" The three Pokémon launched their attacks at the many men who were attacking the village. From nearby, someone stepped out of the shadows. It was Zura Trancella. "Maximillion! What do you think you're doing?" Zura's voice echoed over the village. "Stop this right now! I will not allow you to destroy any part of this region!" Zura continued.

-MEANWHILE-

Shubura got a message from Zura Glory. "What? The last Hedron? Well, send it over, and I'll put it in place at the cave entrance." Zura sent over the Hedron that had been encased in the Pokéball. Shubura looked over to the west and saw smoke rising. "Thats where Gradnis Village is... That's not good..." Shubura rushed up the volcano, and found the pedastal. "Alright... I have to do this carefully..." Shubura began to slowly lower the Hedron onto the pedestal...

[Zextra]

Rectus ran through the hideout, somersaulting high into the air, avoiding many grunts. "Trancella..." he gritted as he continued on. "Spiritomb! Hypnosis on these grunts!" he shouted as he released a Pokeball. He ran down the hall as the grunts were being put to sleep. "Good job" he said as he returned it. He recognized a locked door several hundred yards away. "Porygon Z! Unlock that door!" he yelled as he released Porygon Z to mess with the circuits. The door opened. "Excellent!" he thought. He ran through the door.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

Maximillion turned to see Zura, "What will you do to stop me?" Maximillion released his Magmotar to deal with the grass type pokemon that where meddling with his plans, "Team Nebulus will conqure what needs to be conquered to purify the universe, Time and Space itself shall save mankind. Are you willing to destroy Man's future by stopping us?" A grunt then came out of nowhere and ordered their Pursian to attack Zura.

[Dementuo]

Zura pulled out a strange stone. It was colored a bright, light blue. "Im assuming you know what this is? If not, then you must not understand the power I hold here. This is the Sky Hedron. Stop attacking this region, and stand down, or feel the power of the skies." Zura said.
Shibi watched the Magmortar appear and attack his Pokémon. "Alright Leafeon, now use Dig!" Leafeon burrowed underground.
Zura continued to stare intently at Maximillion. "Stand down, right now, or you will regret ever coming here." Zura cotinued, still clutching the Hedron.

-MEANWHILE-

Shubura lowered the Hedron onto the pedestal, but nothig happened. "No... Hm... No, that's not possible... This isn't the right pedastal... But then, where is the right one...? I wonder..." Shubura thought. "I had betterget the Time Hedron, and reset everything over there..." Shubura thought, as he looked down at a viewer on his watch which revealed the battle going on at Gradnis. "This is terrible..." Shubura said to himself as he rushed to Barren Colloseum.

[Zextra]

Rectus came to a room with a black stone. "So that's how he got out..." Rectus thought as he touched the stone. Then, he realized what it was. "A fragment of the Alakazam Shard!! Of course..." He was instantly transported to Gradnis. He appeared in the skies, falling. "Salamence, go!" Salamence emerged and swooped under Rectus, catching him. "Thanks" he patted Salamence on the head. "The Alakzam Shard - the result of a wicked experiment, whose purpose was to grant all humans Psychic powers. Trancella, you creep..." he thought. "Salamence! Hydro Pump!" Salamence shot a massive blast of water at the forest, which stopped the forest fire. He jumped down from Salamence next to Shibi. "Both team leaders? You have got to be kidding me..." he thought. "Salamence! Dragon Claw!" he shouted as Salamence clawed at the Pokemon who were attacking the forest, knocking the back.

-MEANWHILE-

Kier looked up. Flames and devastation was everywhere. "What is that?!!" he asked.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

"You would back down to a thing like that? Go ahead, kill me!" Maximillion then took out a small trigger, "But if you use that I blow up this entire Town, you see while my team was raiding the place they placed bombs everywhere, this entire town is my hostage, I don't care if I die, I could care less, but then you'll have the burden of this entire town on your shoulders as they all die like my mother did!" This was a perfect example of how insane Maximillion was. "This remote is also motion sensitive, if it leaves my hand with out me doing it a certain way, it will set off!"

[Zextra]

"Spiritomb, Porygon Z! Let's go!" Rectus tossed 2 PokeBalls in the air, and a purple hazeball and a mechanical duck emerged. "Alright..." he whispered to them. "Spiritomb, use your psychic powers to find the bombs, and PorygonZ, when Spiritomb finds it, you go ahead and diffuse it" Rectus continued whispering. Then, he turned back at Maximillion. "You really don't care? What's your point, trying to kill yourself and this entire town?" Rectus confronted Maximillion. He messaged Zura, telling him that there was a crisis at Gradnis Town.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

"I really don't care, when you go through what I do you loose a sense of what's real and what's not." Maximillion tightened his grip around the trigger, "After being tormented by those of your own species who know of the pain you go through but are still rejected by them. To loose everything, I want everyone to know what it is like to be me!" Maximillion placed his thumb on the button, "Now leave or me, you, and everyone here will die!"

[Ｄｈａｒｃ]

[color="#708090"]Dante dropped from the sky and his Altaria landed next to him. "Tch, patheitc...Are you [i]really[/i] what I need to deal with? Altaria, use Draco Meteor. And Electivire, come out and use Thunder." Electivire burst from a pokeball and immeediately fired a bolt of lightning into the air as Altaria simultaneously fired an orange sphere into the sky. The two attacks combined and golden spheres of light rained down from the heavens, obliterating everything in their path. Dante didn't care who or what they hit. He didn't care about much nowadays. Except Giratina.[/color]

[color="#A0522D"]Alex was about to command Aron to try again when he noticed the flames and explosions. "What the...?" Aron was looking towards that area as well when a golden ball of light landed in front of them, detonating as it smashed into the ground, forming a large crater. Several similar orbs detonated around them, but none quite as close. "C'mon Aron, let's check this out!"
Alex and his Aron arrived to find numerous fallen trees, giant tanks, and a few trainers (Some of which were on the ground, sleeping). "Alright, Aron, use Iron Head on that tank in front!" Aron charged forward as a silver aura formed around him. "You two, you come out as well!" Electrike and Zangoose emerged from their balls and let loose battle cries. They were ready for anything.
[/color]
[color="#48D1CC"]Virgil noticed everyone was leaving. "Oh...Well, you guys go...I might as well stay here anyway." Virgil looked back down into the hole. The watr was no longer rising, but it was still very high. He stuck his head through the hole and looked at Kyogre. The red pattern on Kyogre's body was glowing a bright, burning red, and his eyes were glowing golden. Then the ground began to shake. The mountain was collapsing![/color]
[color="#48D1CC"]"C'mon Delibird, we have to get out of here!"[/color]
[color="#48D1CC"]"Del, Deli!"[/color]

[Dementuo]

Zura Glory got the message. "Guess I'll have to go there..." Zura got back onto Charizard, and rode off.

-MEANWHILE-

Zura Trancella looked back at Maximillion. "If you don't care, and I will. But hear this! You have no idea what hell will reign down on you if you do this! Stand down now, or face judgment." Trancella put away the Sky Hedron, and pulled out one that was bright white. "Ill give you three minutes to decide. If you haven't decided by then, then you will be judged!" Zura continued.

-MEANWHILE-

Shibi looked at Rectus. "Yeah, both leaders are here. I have Leafeon underground. She's trying to find the bombs as well. Oh, and Rectus, Shubura told me to give you this." Shibi pulled out another strange stone which was colored light blue. "He said it would helpyou. Here, take it." Shibi handed over the stone to Rectus.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

"Ha!" Maximillion didn't care he laughed at Zura. "You still don't get it! Hell will be a glad improvement than from here. Now step down or everyone here dies! We can do this for hours so I'm giving you one minute!" Maximillion laughed, he would do it too, he wasn't afraid, he loathed life itself and would gladly accept death, no matter how horrible, "It will be better for everyone if you just step down, I will not harm these people, i just need the land."

[Dementuo]

Zura Glory arrived, and landed next to Zura Trancella. "If you honestly think that you can do that, then think again." A Pokémon quickly dashed out from behind Glory, and Glory pulled out a stone that was a bright green. "If hell is a welcome change, then I'll gladly oblige." Glory said. He turned to Trancella. "We've had our differences, but I'm asking for a truce this one time." Trancella chuckled. "I may want revenge on you, but fine. I'll do it." Both Glory and Trancella turned to Maximillion. They held up their stones. The Pokémon that had dashed out appeared next tk Glory. It was Celebi. "Powerof the Life Hedron, power of the Pure Hedron, rain down judgement upon this place!" Both Hedrons started glowing, and Celebi started using It's Time Travel abilities to restore the forest. "Restore what once was, and reclaim what now is!" The trees started to clamp down on the tanks, pulling them into the ground. Bright lines of light filled the sky, shooting down to the ground where the grunts were. "Now, seal the malice within the place, and banish those who claim power they do not comprehend! Be sealed once more!" The two Hedrons and Celebi disappeared, and the village was back to normal along with the forest. "Now, Maximillion. All of your bombs have been disarmed, so stand down, and leave. You don't have to go any further into the void." Glory said, as he leapt down towards Rectus. "You got Shubura's message? Thank you Shibi." Zura Trancella looked back at Maximillion. "Go back to where you came from. I will not allow any more destruction." He turned back to Glory. "Dont think this means I'm stopping my plans, either. I'm stillgoing to perfect this world, just without destroying it." Trancella said.

[MortalKombatSmoke]

"C-Celebi... I thought you where just a legend! The master of time! You can do it! You can send me back to when I was happy! I can fix everything that's been wrong with my life!" Maximillion went towards Celebi, "I've been hunting down the ruler of time but now in front of me I have the master of time! Please Celebi! Send me back and I swear I will be better!" Maximillion begged, he wanted to change things for the better.

[Makο]

Hitoka stood stealthy behind a tree nearby, watching the events unfold. Upon sighting Celebi, his eyes widened a little, showing a little bit of emotion.


[i]The...master of time...[/i]



He looked at his 1 pokeball, his only Pokemon...Then looked back up. Silently, he walked from behind the tree, moving towards the center of the conflict, always staying out of view.

[Zextra]

Rectus' Pokemon returned, smiling. "Alright, they did it" he thought, as he returned them. He then proceeded to approach Maximillion. "I'm sorry about whatever has happened to you, but the past is the past" he said matter-of-factly as he walked directly in front of Maximillion. "You shouldn't take out your anger on the entire world" he sighed. "So, are you willing to stop and save yourself?" Rectus asked as he looked straight into Maximillion's eyes. "What you're doing is not right, and deep down, I'm sure you know it" Rectus said.
