Again I read the letter she sent me, for what I feel is the thousandth time.
Many times I have seen this familiar handwriting, but it's the first time in a long time I've seen it so shaken as if she, the one writing it has finally given up on her hope. I turned my gaze toward the starry sky with a sigh. I am sitting on her favorite place drinking a small cup of hot cocoa. She would probably have loved a night like this one.
But she's not here anymore.
It's a little funny when you think about it actually. We've been together ever since she can remember. Ever since I can remember. And after a single night... PUF! She's gone.
Of course, as soon as I woke up the next day and noticed that she disappeared I desperately searched for any sign of her whereabouts, but all my search was simply fruitless.
Of course, now I know why... It doesn't matter how much I search there's no way I can reach her when she's in another world. That thought boiled my blood and I stood up. In the letter, she said she wasn't in the world of Equestria, which would have been a place where she would be able to come back from, but in a completely different one.
I called our student, Sunset Shimmer, since she obviously is the most experienced in the subject, but it still gave me no result at all. I went inside while still trying to keep myself under control. I can take devils, sirens, monsters and anything the universe wants to throw at me, but taking my sister away is too much, my heart still aches like there's no tomorrow.
A strange sound caught my attention, and looking down I could see a strange patterned shadow that I've seen only once before. I turned around so I could see him better. The strange creature who handed me the letter was standing on my strand as it watched me silently.
"What's wrong? Have another letter for me?" I asked sharply. I know I should be grateful to him for giving me information about my sister's whereabouts, but the anger within me makes it very difficult. It's like I'm looking for someone to blame, somebody I can throw all the rage and accumulated sadness that I have inside me.
He only stared at me for a few seconds, which added to my anger. "Don't you have anything better to do?" I asked. "I'm sure there are other people around here that you might be able to bother, just look around," He blinked once. I know he can understand me, so it means he just ignored me.
That was the final straw.
"WHAT THE HELL YOU WANT MORE FROM ME?" I trowed the mug right on his face and it broke with the impact, but I don't care. I don't care about anything anymore. "YOUR DAMN WORLD TOOK HER FROM ME ALREADY, WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT?"
He blinked again.
I grinned my teeth. "ANSWER ME DAMMIT!" I took the chair that was by my side and trowed it, and this time he used his strange arm/shield to protect himself. "OH, NOW YOU CAN DO SOMETHING USEFUL, DIDN'T YOU? SO WHY DON'T YOU BRING HER BACK?" I took my table from the floor effortlessly, and this time I had a pleasant feeling as his expression finally changed to a surprised one.
He put both his arms up in a clear attempt to tell me he means no harm, but I couldn't care less. I trowed the table at him. "IF YOU CAN'T BRING HER BACK, THEN TAKE ME TO HER!" The table exploded in a million pieces, but of course, he wasn't harmed.
He nodded.
My eyes widened. "What?" He turned his back to me and pointed at me and then at himself again. "You... Can take me to where she is?"
He looked at me with sadness. There's more than he's willing to say now... But I don't care.
I walked toward him decided.
"What a bunch of idiots," I cleaned the small trace of blood that I felt falling from the corner of my mouth. "Can't even give a single decent punch,"
I looked at the sky. It's raining... Like always. It never stops raining around here.
I sat on a big stone close to the door of Po town and looked at what I had just done. Twelve 'Trainers' are lying on the floor completely unconscious. I smiled bitterly. Those stupid idiots can't do anything without their pokemon and yet they tried come against me? The big Guzma? Of course, I beat them down, and very easy even.
"You made a big mess this time, huh?" I turned toward the origin of the voice and grinned.
"Yeah, these guys were just a bunch of daddy's little boys that couldn't do a single thing by themselves, So I decided to show them what the human form of destruction is like, HAHAHAHA!" I laughed. He is a man that seems like the very description of depression, and yet from his direction I already can feel his overwhelming presence as if I'm in front of a true monster.
"Sure," Nanu walked toward me without caring about the many semi corpses he was stepping on. "And the fact they were after those little idiots you call a gang have nothing to do with that?"
"What do you want old man?" I asked sharply. He always manages to piss me off.
He shrugged. "A certain lady want to talk with you,"
"Huh? And what this has to do with you?" I looked away. "Many ladies want to speak with ya'boy Guzma here, but they don't need to talk with you first,"
He smirked with his hands still on his pockets. "I think this one is a little different," He turned away. "I just had to bring her to see you, so my job here is done,"
"And since when you're one to just help the others? Decided to do your job, cop?" I crossed my arms and laughed as the rain makes my hair fall on my face, which probably will make me looks like a crazy person in no time at all.
"Well, I was in a good mood," He started to walk away, but stop a few meters after. "He's all yours," And resumed his walk.
When he said a lady wanted to talk with me I thought it was a girl wanting to become a grunt, but this is obviously not the case. She has blonde hair with silver streaks and green eyes. She wears a white dress with a diamond badge on it, black and white leggings, and boots of the same color, which means she obviously is not going to ask for a chance on team skull. Despite the heavy rain she was not using an umbrella and doesn't seem to care to get dirty.
But there's something wrong. Nanu is already gone, but that damn feeling of sheer power still haven't vanished at all. The woman walked toward me without even giving the beaten trainers a glance, instead, her eyes were solely focused on me. And with each step, the presence of power is growing too.
She stopped not far from me with her arms holding each other. Suddenly I felt something falling across my check. A single drop that I'm pretty sure isn't from the rain. I can't believe I'm going to say it, but I smiled a little nervously, but not because I'm speaking with a pretty woman, but for an entirely different reason.
I can't deny anymore, the ridiculous amount of power I'm feeling is coming from her alone. Is like standing in front of a legendary pokemon that lacks any sense of pity for the others. But I kept myself from trembling.
"What do you want?" I asked even more sharply than when I talked with the old man.
"Are you the man called Guzma?" Her voice is soft and caring, completely opposite to her aura.
"And who wants to know," For some reason, her traces remember me of someone...
"My name is Lusamine," She answered while staring me in the eyes.
"Oh," I smiled. Now I get it. "The president of that artificial island and bunch of stupid naturalists," I kept the better part for the end. "Came to get your little boy back? Sorry to say it lady, but Gladion isn't even in this island anymore,"
As I mentioned his name the ghost of sadness crossed her face, but she did not cry or yelled at me, instead, something far scarier happened. She smiled. A smile lacking any kind of sanity that suddenly froze me entirely.
I can't take my eyes from her. It's like she's a snake and I'm only a small pray that can't counterattack. This time I'm shaking. I thought I was dangerous, I thought Nanu was dangerous, but this woman... She's a devil.
"Yes," As if she read my thoughts she said it and put both her hands on my checks. "You're far stronger than he made me believe," My eyes widened. No adult has ever said I'm strong, much less someone close to such an absurd level. It's a trap! I can't fall for that! But for some reason, my body is not responding.
"W-What do you want?" That's all I managed to say.
"What I want?" Her smiled disappeared for a second, and then returned far crazier than ever, making me gulp for the first time in my life. "I want you to be part of my beautiful world,"
The never stopping rain got even stronger as a thunder crossed the sky, but all I could see were those hypnotizing green eyes.
"Why are we here?" I asked as I observed the horse statue in front of me. "She said she's not in Equestria, so there's no reason for us to be here," He looked at me and then observed his surroundings. There's no one in view.
He went toward the left side of the statue where there's another mirror. I stopped by his side but all I could see was my own tired expression.
He touched the mirror that suddenly glowed with a magical light.
My eyes widened in surprise. Did that means that every side of the statue is a portal to a different world? Then that means... Luna is after this mirror? I jolted forward abandoning all sense, but he stopped me and shook his head once? "What's wrong? I have to bring her back!"
He shook his head again, and then pointed toward the mirror, and then toward the school and shook his head again. Not a very easy analogy but I get it... "When I cross this mirror... There's no turning back to this world, right?"
He nodded once solemn.
I smiled. "Too bad, but my world had already been taken from me... And I'm going to take her back," Without giving him a chance to stop me I jumped inside the portal.
