Farewell (follow me on DeviantART)

TrailBlaiser cries quietly in her bedroom, her knees tucked into her chest, her blond locks falling in front of her face as her body is wracked by soft sobbing. "It can't be true... it can't... how could she?"

RiverFlyte enters, a grim look on his face. He sees TrailBlaiser crying and sits beside her on the bed, wrapping his arms around her. "It's going to be okay..." he lies.

TrailBlaiser cries harder, twisting around to cling onto his shirt. "No it's not, Sep! I've been replaced!"

Closing his eyes, RiverFlyte kisses her forehead gently. "We've all been replaced..."

She shakes her head forcefully. "No, you don't understand. I... I've been replaced. Me personally. By... Confederacy!"

He tilts his head in confusion. "The Hetalia OC?"

"Yes!" She wipes her eyes, glaring at nothing. "She has anger issues, she's motherly, and DragonFyre, sorry, Fyreflare, roleplays her primarily." She looks up into RiverFlyte's eyes, angry, hot tears burning down her face. "She took me, altered me, and called her by a different name! And now suddenly this girl is better than me!" She buries her face in his chest. "I don't understand... what did I do wrong?"

RiverFlyte rubs her back soothingly. "Nothing. You did nothing wrong. You did everything right. This is just part of how an author grows. Moving on from one character to the next. It was destined to happen."

She gasps softly, her breaths shaky. "I j- just... didn't th- think it would... h- happen so s- soon..."

He kisses her again, gently. "Do you remember her first character?"

She shakes her head. "Barely. I forgot her name."

"That character is what became you. She went through many changes and adjustments until she was scrapped and you were born of the ashes." he says slowly, whispering.

"I... I wonder... how she felt... when she was... scrapped..." She kisses RiverFlyte gently. "Will I be forgotten as well?"

RiverFlyte stays silent. "I don't think so. The rest of us may be forgotten... you might be the only remainder of RTHQ when it's all over... but you and all characters like you will never be forgotten."

TrailBlaiser's grip on his shirt tightens. "Fyreflare... will forget everyone but me? Then... you'll all fade and I'll be... alone..." 

He kisses her softly over her face and neck. "I... will never... leave you... I love you..."

TrailBlaiser takes in a shaky breath. "But... she'll forget you..."

"No, she won't." RiverFlyte breathes. "I will always be the base of her male characters, and everyone here, every agent, will reappear. We might have different names, appearances, we might not even know who you are when we are reborn... but we will always come back." He kisses her lips gently. "And I will never leave you."

TrailBlaiser nods sadly. "We... we've done too much for her... she can't forget us..."

RiverFlyte smiles sadly. "Even if we're not our own story anymore, we'll still be here. RTHQ may fade, but the memories made and the plots and characters here will always be reborn. We'll be like phoenixes..."

TrailBlaiser laughs softly. "I've never been a phoenix before... it sounds nice..." She rests her forehead on his. "I want to spend my life... and all my lives after this one... with you..."

He strokes her hair softly. "You will. Fyreflare can't separate us." He smiles at her. " We were written for each other."

I'm Back!

What's up y'all? I've been off for a while now, but I plan to update soon! No, I don't have the rest of the story today. I'm gonna work on over the weekend and I'll probably come back with the next installment Monday... or Tuesday. Idk. By the way, I was just reading over all my stories on all my sites and I realized something: All My Characters Have A Mental Disorder!!! Several of them die in the plot line. One of them tries to kill her caretaker (only because she was slightly psychotic). One, I think, ends up killing herself. One jumps off a railing that was two stories high because a dream told her to (she didn't die, but still!). Oh, and then she almost gets eaten alive by a wolf and gets hypothermia.

My only question is... what the actual heck am I WRITING?! Sometimes I worry...

The Legendary Birds!


“We should keep moving. We'll be halfway to Mount Cornet by sunset.” They continue walking in silence. Suddenly, they hear a loud screech come from above. Ash looks up and immediately recognizes the flying beasts.
“What are they?” asks Link.
“Friends.” Ash sighs. Four large birds land in front of them., each with a different appearance. One is blue, with long, shining feathers. One is yellow, with black streaks in its wings. Another is tan, with flaming wings. The largest of the four is of all colors, bright feathers, and with wild eyes. “These are creatures of legend. Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Ho-oh. Each is extremely powerful.” The trio of elemental birds glare at Meowth and screech at him.
“What are they saying?” Tai asks.
“They're mad at me for my team trying to capture and sell them for profit.” The three birds blast him with ice, fire, and electricity, leaving Meowth charred.
“How are you still alive?!” Link gasps. Meowth gives him an odd look.
“The laws of physics work differently in this realm. Don't ask me why or how. I didn't make this realm. Arceus did.” RiverFlyte explains. Ash hops on Moltres's back, and Pikachu follows him.
“It's the fastest way to Mount Cornet. Get on.” Tai shrugs and jumps onto Zapdos, with Augumon close behind him.
“Is that thing safe?” Link asks. Articuno bows to him. “Alright, whatever.” He climbs onto Articuno and grasps its neck. RiverFlyte leaps onto Ho-oh, surprised by its soft feathers.
“Hey! What about me?!” Meowth shouts.
“Fine.” RiverFlyte groans. “Get on.” Meowth scurries up Ho-oh's wing and holds on. “Do anything stupid and I'll let Link handle you.” Meowth goes pale. “To Mount Cornet! Fly!” The birds take off toward the mountain, carrying the boys away.

Sorry it's so short, been working on other projects on figment.com. You can check them out if you want. Draconia and New South. So... yeah. TTYL!

The End Has Come!

Jk, but fitting tittle today, don't you think?


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.

RiverFlyte's Mission!


The transmission ends, leaving TrailBlaiser stunned. RiverFlyte puts his hand on her shoulder.
“What's your plan?” he asks.
“I don't have one.” she breathes. She pulls her knees to her chest and cries. “I don't know what to do!” Ash watches her intently.
“Wow. She might be crazier than Misty.” he muses.
“You think that's bad?” Tai comments. “This girl, Mimi, almost got everyone killed because she was obsessed with her appearance.” Link leans on his sword like a cane.
“Please. Ruto, a half-fish girl, tried to get me to marry her, then tried to drown me when I ran away!” Ash smiles at the two other boys.
“We may be from different 'realms' or whatever, like she said, but I think we can all agree on one thing. Girls are insane.” RiverFlyte notices that TrailBlaiser isn't responding to him at all.
“Babe.” he sighs. “Go back home. You're in no condition to fix this.” He helps her to her feet. Kissing her gently, he sends her through the portal. Once it closes, he turns to the boys. “This is my mission now.” They stare at him in confusion. “So, we're going to save the world. Any questions?” Everyone raises their hands. “This is going to be a long day.” he sighs.

“Okay, so, we're all from different realms.” Tai begins. “And somehow these realms collided even though they're supposed to stay separate. And we have to enlist the help of, what was it, Arceus?” RiverFlyte nods.
“Arceus is the supposed creator of everything in this realm. He is the most powerful being here. Besides me, anyway. In theory, I could fix the problem, except only those in control of a realm know how it works. It's all terribly complicated and to be honest, I'm not even sure how everything works.”
“Wait,” Ash stops him, “what do you mean 'supposed creator'? All our records say that he is.” RiverFlyte pauses and thinks of how best to explain.
“Er, it's best described as, a universal hierarchy. God, master of the Alpha Realm, is the one in charge of everything. Below him are Aslan, who oversees all realms even remotely similar to the Alpha Realm, and The Emperor Across the Sea, who's in charge of all other realms. We don't associate with the Emperor, though. He has his own set of guardians. Aslan created every realm he has control over, then left the realm's own deities to watch over it. The deities report to Aslan, and Aslan reports to God. Make sense?” Everyone stares at him blankly.
“No.”
“Not really.”
“Sort of.”
“So confused.”
“Pika!” Tai turns to Ash.
“Is that all it says?” he asks. Ash looks at Pikachu.
“Yeah, pretty much.”
“Crap.” breathes RiverFlyte.
“What?” asks Link.
“Arceus is a Pokemon.” RiverFlyte groans.
“Yeah, we've already established that.” sighs Tai.
“I don't speak Pokemon.”

It's Video Game Land!


“Hey TrailBlaiser!” calls Agent Rabbitleap, whose been monitoring the realms. She rushes up to where TrailBlaiser's carving an new artifact.
“What's up, Wolf?” she asks. Rabbitleap shows her readings and graphs.
“There's been an unusual fluctuation of energy from the, uh, Pokemon realm.” TrailBlaiser raises an eyebrow.
“So? That kind of thing happens whenever a realm is updated by it's writer.” Rabbitleap shakes her head.
“That's just it. Nothing has been reported for days.” This gets TrailBlaiser's attention.
“Not even on the Japanese sites?” Rabbitleap shakes her head.
“No event Pokemon, no WFC releases, no new games, no movies, no manga, no anime episodes. Nothing. There is virtually no reason whatsoever that this realm should be acting like it's getting an update.” TrailBlaiser puts down the little chunk of oak, now half-way shaped into a dolphin.
“All right. I'm gonna go investigate.” she opens a portal to the realm, but turns to Rabbitleap just before she enters. “Do me a favor, keep RiverFlyte on standby. Just in case.” Rabbitleap nods as TrailBlaiser steps through.
The portal closes up behind her, leaving her surrounded in tall trees. A small creature crawls out of the forest and sniffs at TrailBlaiser. She examines the creature closely. “You're a, uh, Nidoran, right?” The rodent-like Pokemon looks up at her with happiness in it's eyes.
“Nidoran!” it cries merrily.
“Your vocabulary astounds me.” she sighs. She looks around, then spots someone beyond the edge of the trees, the steps out onto a trail, then stops, her breath caught in her throat. She sees two boys, one with a yellow mouse creature, and one with a dinosaur-like creature. The first young man takes out a small red device, pressing various buttons.
“Cool Pokemon you have. I've never seen anything like it!” he exclaims.
“That's cause he's not a Pokemon.” the other boy says.
“I'm a Digimon!” explains the dinosaur. “My name's Agumon!” The other boy jumps back in surprise. TrailBlaiser screams, startling the the boys.
“No, no! Th- that isn't possible! Ash, Tai, you two shouldn't be able to communicate! The very laws of magic forbid it!” Another boy, this one elf-ish in appearance steps out of the woods, sword drawn, with blood splattering his tunic. TrailBlaiser looks at him in horror.
“Link?” she asks, her voice barely a whisper. He nods, quite confused. TrailBlaiser backs into a tree. “Okay, so three different realms have somehow collided, Pokemon, Digimon, and Legend of Zelda.” All three boys, including the two creatures, stare at her in puzzlement. A portal opens a few feet away, and Agent RiverFlyte steps out. He notices TrailBlaiser's horror.
“Leo, what's going on? Rabbitleap notified me of your sudden spike in heart rate.” TrailBlaiser vaguely motions toward the three boys, now thoroughly confused. “Yeah, that would do it. Have you contacted DragonFyre?” She sends a burst of red magic directly in front of her, leaving a projection of DragonFyre. “Sister, analyze. What's the solution?” she squeaks. DragonFyre looks from Ash, to Link, to Tai.
“Um, you have three options. You could hide in the Alpha Realm, hide in RTHQ, or hide in Aslan's Country. Either way, the fabric of the universe is slowly falling apart. So... yeah.” TrailBlaiser shakes her head.
“I can't just sit back and hide! Something needs to be done to fix this!” she cries. DragonFyre sighs.
“If you mean, you're gonna stay here, then, nice knowing ya Sis.”

Skyfeather

At dinner that night, the agents gather around the table. Persia gasps at the sight of hoards of exotic and expensive food being brought into the room by silver trays, carried by red magic. Duck and turkey sit in the middle, while sauteed vegetables surround the rest. TrailBlaiser stands and claps her hands twice. Every agent stops talking immediately and gives her their attention. "Tonight," she announces, "I propose a toast to a new agent. While thought as a nuisance, she presented herself to be rather admirable in her retrieval of two of my agents from an unknown realm. Persia," She motions for the young girl to stand, which she complies to. Hr heart beats quickly. 
"This is it..." Persia breathes. Sapphire, Owlcry, and Doveslash smile at her, giving her encouragement.
"From this day forth, I give you status as an agent in training here, at RTHQ. When you are within our walls, no longer will you be known as Persia. You shall be called, until the day you graduate as a full agent, A-I-T Skyfeather." The agents erupt into thunderous applause. TrailBlaiser sits again at the table. RiverFlyte whispers something in her ear. No one notices the leader as the agents welcome Skyfeather into their ranks. Owlcry, who is sitting beside her, stands and envelops her into his arms.
"Congrats, Skyfeather." he breathes. She hugs him back, a huge smile on her face. 
"Skyfeather, huh? I like it!" 

After dinner, TrailBlaiser stops Skyfeather on her way to her room. "Persia- er, I mean, Skyfeather, may I have a word with you?" Skyfeather skips over to TrailBlaiser.
"Sure, boss!" she beams. TrailBlaiser rubs her neck nervously.
"About that. Technically, aren't you already enrolled in your own program?" she asks. "I want to have you as a dual student. You are to receive training here under the authority of Rabbitleap. However, I also want you continue your studies in Questica and Mystika. Maybe you can spread this message to your home. We don't know much about Questica, and, to be honest, making you an A-I-T was more of a diplomatic move than anything else. I hope that, in your employment here, we come to know more about your home." Skyfeather yawns and waves her away.
"Yeah, yeah, diplomacy, training, negotiations, blah blah blah. All I need to know is, do I get my own room here?" Skyfeather cuts in. TrailBlaiser grinds her jaw in annoyance.
"We don't have the room as of now. That's why most of our agents are in their respective home realms. Just be happy you have an agent name, and don't push it."
