Sapphire walks up behind TrailBlaiser.
“Um, TrailBlaiser, what's wrong?” Leo quickly wipes her tears
away.
“Nothing, nothing. I'm fine.” she
stammers. Sapphire crosses her arms.
“Come on, you can't lie to me.”
Sapphire sits beside TrailBlaiser on the sofa in the main hall. “So
what's up?” TrailBlaiser takes a deep breath.
“There's a disruption in the Pokemon
realm. Two other realms have collided. Now RiverFlyte's over there
trying to fix it.” Sapphire waits for a few moments.
“What happens if he can't?” she
asks. TrailBlaiser's breath catches in her throat.
“The realms break apart, piece by
piece. Everyone just, doesn't exist anymore. And then it spreads.
Like a zipper opened in the middle, the fabric of the realms are
slowly ripped apart, until the only places left are the Alpha Realm,
Narnia, and here. The only reason we aren't destroyed too is because
we are guarded by Aslan.” Sapphire tries to comprehend this.
“So, if he can't fix this,
everything's going to fall apart. And RiverFlyte? What will happen to
him?” TrailBlaiser stays silent as another tear runs down her
cheek. “Oh.”
“I don't speak Pokemon.” Everyone's
silent.
“So, who does?” asks Tai. Ash
thinks for a bit.
“Meowth does.” he offers. “He's a
member of Team Rocket. And they attempt to kill me on several
occasions, so, they shouldn't be too hard to find. Just let them come
to us.” Link gives him an incredulous look.
“In what universe is it okay to let
someone who's trying to kill you, find you?!” he yells. Ash shrugs.
“They've been after me for years. And
they haven't exactly been master assassins. They're attempts only end
in hurting themselves most of the time.” RiverFlyte hears a rustle
behind them and turns just as three figures emerge. Two of them are
dressed in white clothes with a large red R on the front, while one
resembles a cat.
“Is that them?” Link asks. Ash
nods. Link rushes toward them, sword drawn and bloody. The humans
flee while Link grabs Meowth.
“Hey! Let me go!” it cries.
“You speak Pokemon?” Link asks it.
“Yeah. So?” RiverFlyte explains
what needs to be done to save the world. “Wait, so you want me to
translate for Arceus?! The creator of the world?! Who am I to speak
for him?!” Link thrusts his sword into Meowth's face.
“Does this convince you?” he
growls. Meowth's eyes widen.
“You- you wouldn't hurt me! You
can't!” Meowth covers his face with his paws.
“I've killed creatures much more
threatening than you.” Tai puts a hand on Link's shoulder.
“Dude, lay off the violence.” he
scolds. “We need him to help us.” RiverFlyte paces around a bit.
He pulls out his communicator.
“RiverFlyte calling RTHQ, come in
RTHQ.” he demands. TrailBlaiser's voice comes through.
“This is TrailBlaiser. What do you
need?” He seems surprised to hear her so calm.
“Lenora, are there any other Pokemon
interpreters?” he asks.
“Um, not that you can reach easily.
The closet one is N, and he's in the game realm, you're in the anime.
I would suggest staying with Meowth. If you were to find N, you'd
have to separate him from Touko, who will fight you tooth and nail to
keep him. You do not want a girl fight on your hands.” Everyone
shudders.
“I'll admit, girls are some of the
more dangerous beings in the universe.” Link states. The others
agree.
“Thanks, Baby. I'll see you when I
finish the mission.” He's about to close the communicator, when he
hears her voice.
“Sep, you will finish the mission,
right? I need you.” RiverFlyte pauses before responding.
“I promise you, I'll return. I love
you.” He turns off the communicator. Everyone waits in silence. “We
should keep moving. We'll be halfway to Mount Cornet by sunset.”
They continue walking in silence.
