Selena had, unfortunately, landed on her head. She quickly brushed off the throb on her head, and got up. Selena looked around and saw a lush, fresh looking forest in front of her, with blue skies over her head. A small, bustling town was just behind her, and she heard Bidoofs running happily over the grass.
"Okay, there must be a simple explanation for this." Selena thought. "I mean, why would I suddenly teleport to Petalburgh Woods when I was only a few meters away from DewfordTown? Teleport...maybe Ken did it." Selena called out Ken.
"Ken, did you teleport me to Petalburgh Woods? Why'd you do that?" Ken was shaking his head rapidly. "Oh, I guess then...I CAME ON MY OWN?! HOW! No way..." Selena racked out her brain trying to think of a good solution, but none came to her. She felt like exploding. Finally, she cooled down a bit. "...Okay, I'll calm myself down, I can't think like this. Gotta keep my cool as always." Selena looked around, and found a sign. It read:
LakeVerity -à Route 201
"Y'mean, I went from DewfordTown to LAKEVERITY?!" Selena gaped at the sign as she struggled to remember the way to calm yourself, which was taught by her karate teacher. She inhaled and exhaled, twenty times, as the teacher said that twenty was the magic number. It didn't work too well.
"My god...where the hell AM I!" Selena cried as she shouted out the last few words.
"SHUT UP! I can't get in a good nap in if you shout!" A mysterious voice entered Selena's mind.
"Gosh, that bump must've been worse. I'm even hearing voices." Selena thought. Just then, an earth-shattering roar battered her eardrums.
"Don't IGNORE me, Selena! How DARE you insult the mighty Groudon! I am the strongest, and I'll prove it to you!" , Groudon shouted.
Selena looked around again, and saw no one. "Where are you? Come out! What's the matter, loser? Can't move fast enough?" She taunted.
"Just what did I just say?! I said that you shouldn't insult me! I don't think you're the one to talk, since you don't even know WHERE I am!", Groudon shouted.
"Where are you, in my head? Come out! I said this before!" Selena shouted. A chuckle was heard, and Selena (once again) spun around.
"I guess you're not ENTIRELY stupid. I AM inside your head. Just in case, if you hadn't heard my name, it's Groudon." , Groudon chuckled again.
"Uh huh, and I'm the Sun God. You can't fool me, you-", Selena was cut short when a growl was heard. "I ALSO told you this before; do NOT ignore me! If I'm not Groudon, then how can I speak in your mind? If you want proof, as I offered before, I'll show you how I look like!" Selena saw in her mind, a faint hologram of a pokemon with red scales, huge hands and claws, a permanent scowl and weird, black etchings on its entire body. Groudon shouted, "NOW do you believe me? I'm the almighty Groudon, who-" "needs to lose some pounds, and is currently the heaviest pokemon in the world." Selena added, fuming up Groudon.
"Puny human…" Groudon mumbled. "If I had enough power to come in person, I would squish her to a pulp-" "Sorry, didn't quite catch that part." Selena butted in. Groudon didn't seem to notice.
"-for such insolence to a Legendary pokemon. Can't believe that I chose HER to save Master Arceus…" Groudon grunted. "Um, tell me…is Arceus hurt or something? Kidnapped? Being taken control? Why did you choose ME to save Arceus?" Selena asked. Groudon grunted again, and then sat down.
"Actually, in a way, it's a mixture of all three, kiddo. There is an evil thing called the Parasite, and it's slowly consuming Arceus. Sadly, it's affecting me, too, so this is the only way I can talk to you without consuming too much of my strength. Some other Legendaries must've been talking with their chosen ones…so you're not alone. About half of the legendaries have chosen someone, but the other half are taking care of Arceus, trying to delay the Parasite's growth as long as possible. Oh yeah, I'm the one who made you teleport to here, in case you were wondering about that. I also made you land on your head. I was supposed to land you in the forest, but I screwed up. Stuff like that happen, y'know?" Groudon let out a deep sigh. Meanwhile, Selena was trying to fit that all into her brain.
"Okay, so you're telling me that Arceus is dying because of the Parasite, the Legendaries are too weak to fight it on their own, and you guys got us for henchmen. Go figure." Selena said.
"No, we're strong enough, if put together. The problem is that WE can't harm Arceus, but humans can. Some stupid reason, I guess…" Groudon retorted, obviously mad about the "the Legendaries are too weak to fight it on their own" part.
"Chill out, G-dude, if that's what I'm supposed to do, I'll do it. I mean the god of pokemon. He's dead, probably pokemon'll die." Selena said. "So I go into that forest and join up with the other people inside already? Not to mention, probably all of the other Legendaries could've brought their host safely and properly."
"Just go in, Selena." Groudon sighed. Selena ran into the forest, to be met up with a bunch of people.
"Might as well make a friend, might make this quest easier." Selena thought. She walked up to the big group which was easy to see, since they were the only things interesting here. Selena introduced herself to a boy who was right beside her. "Hi, what's your name?"
