I could feel myself falling but was unable to see anything. A sudden jarring stop as pain struck my side dragged my attention away from the void that spread out around me. I stood up and looked down to see nothing but black. I increased the brightness of my rings but they still illuminated nothing.

Asra! I called into the blackness before I’m suddenly pinned as a surprised yelp called out. I turn my head around to see Asra had fallen straight onto me and unlike the void all around me, I could somehow easily make out her figure.

Shade? I hear her cautiously ask as she looks at me and then her surroundings. What is going on?

I would be lying if I said anything other than I have no idea. I respond. Could you please get off me? With those words she suddenly disappeared from my back and was suddenly lying next to me causing me to jump. I look around again as I stand slowly and look around to see nothing but the void and Asra who slowly stood as well. With a random thought I charge Dark Pulse and launch the beam of twisting shadows into the void. I don’t hold the attack for long as it seemingly hit something in the distance.

Who was that? Asra asks as she stands and slowly and cautiously making her way closer to me.

I think the better question right now is where are we? I respond.

“I can answer that.” A pair of voices echoed out from around us as things all around us start to appear in an expanding pulse. Fields of green stretched out as trees were dotted around the rolling hills as small flowers of two colours dotted the grassy plains. One had pale blue petals and pastel yellow centre with the other being almost black and silver respectively. Both of us were standing on a large carved stone platform as in the distance two figures stood. Both were seemingly human. Although after the last person we just met briefly I’m not too certain anymore.

There was a woman and a man. From this distance, I could see the woman had a black long-sleeved attire and wore a red scarf with white hair. From the parts that were exposed, I could see she had a pretty standard tan coloured skin. The man had a short sleeved blue shirt and shorts and wore blue shoes. His hair was the same pale yellow as the flowers around us along with having an identical skin tone as the woman beside him.

“So, why are you here.” The woman says turning to the guy beside her.

“Because how often does his ‘lord all mightyness’ even allow this?” The guy retorts. “Besides, this one is from somewhere new.” He cheerfully responds. “And also, I was the one who asked Mimmy to begin with so I should be asking that question, not you.”

“Because you can’t stop me. And besides, Glint wants to meet with this one.” The woman says gesturing in our general direction.

Can we please get an explanation!? I yell to the pair as they both turn to me and suddenly vanish.

“Where should we start then Jace?” The man says from behind me, and I leap away and just stare in shock at this stranger. The woman smiled looked surprised beside him before looking to the other umbreon present.

Who is Jace? Asra asks and the guy clearly reacts in a somewhat pained appearance.

“Right forgot about you.” He says as he turns his head to Asra before clicking his fingers causing her to collapse before she disappeared. “That should do it.”

What did you do to her! I yell as I start to feel really stressed and the energy in my body feels like it is about to launch out.

“I just sent her to her own happy dream land for a bit.” He happily responds. “Now then, you are quite the interesting one aren’t you.” He adds while reaching his hand out for me. I started to walk backwards away from this person and I only manage a few steps before my back leg suddenly felt no ground causing me to hault and turn around. The platform I was on stood alone in a sea of white where all the previous greenery is just gone. I turn back to the guy but he was now missing and the woman stood alone with curiosity in her eyes.

I’m just going to take a guess at who you both are. I say trying to find the guy but he is nowhere to be seen.

“We both know you know.” The woman, or rather the nightmare pokemon, Darkrai, says with a cheerful tone.

“But the names you know aren’t who we like to go by unless necessary anymore.” Called out Creselia as a grip tightened around my chest and I am lifted up.

I am going to hurt you if you don’t put me down. I growl as I glare at the lunar pokemon that was holding me.

“Go ahead and try.” He smugly responds.

I charge up Shadow Ball and aimed for a point-blank shot before the man in front of me vanished.

“What are you doing Shade?” Jennifer asks while she held me and I let the attack dissipate not wanting to hurt her. Jennifers face suddenly change and the human form of Creselia was once again holding me with a bright smile on his face. “SURPRISE!” He yells as he drops me and I dash away with Extreme Speed.

“I guess we should properly introduce ourselves.” The woman who suddenly stood beside me spoke making me jump away. “My name is Darcy and the bastard over there is Chris.” She says the last bit with a hint of venom in her tone. “And yes, we are legendary pokemon in a human form. Its very similar to what your human companion can one day achieve but in reverse.”

“So, what was your world like?” The upside down face of Chris responds from his new position of a few centimetres away from my face before he suddenly shifts sideways as Darcy kicked him. “Ow! The hurt.”

“Suck it up.” Darcy retorts before turning to me. “And don’t worry about Linsy, she can’t peak in here.”

Who is Linsy? I ask confused.

“You’ve met her before but you wouldn’t recognise their name or face even. Anyway, we already know everything you know but you gotta tell us.” Chris asks from somewhere. “What was your world like.”

Wait, what! I yell in surprise at the second thing Chris said. How on earth do you. Oh wait. I say in realisation of the fact we are probably in my own mind right now.

“By the way if you don’t play along, I have both yours and your little umbreon’s lives in my hands right now.” Chris said from above me and I look up to see Chris holding an image of two umbreons lying in the forest unconscious. “I really don’t want to end your new life so soon.” He adds with a evil grin. And something suddenly clicked then. Mimmy, or at least what I assume that girls name was said her friend did some bad things.

And now I know what she meant.
