AURORA // GODDESS
day.01, rinea


Aurora picked at her right sleeve nervously, her twilight colored eyes looked off in the distance, committing the world she knew and grew up in to her memory. Today would be the day that she left it all, her dying planet, her parents, her friends, the Pokemon she worked so tirelessly to rescue and rehabilitate. Honestly, she was sad to let it all go, even if it was for a good cause, she would miss it. Once she stepped through the portal that stood before her and the others, that was it. It was unknown to her how long it would be before she could return or if she would ever. The thought frightened her, but Aurora knew that she had to go through with it. After all, she was chosen to be the Goddess of one of these 'new' worlds and make it habitable to Pokemon and possibly humans alike. It was what her world needed, a new beginning and she would be the one to lead it. The responsibility weighed on her fragile shoulders and had haunted the young woman ever since she found out, but at least she would not face this new challenge alone. Alongside the pink haired Goddess was a Lucario, he stood proudly and confidently, eyes focused on the giant machine that would take them away. His strong presence gave the girl some strength and confidence that she would be able to accomplish her dream of one day seeing a world full of Pokemon and humans, free of fear.

The girl's wandering mind was soon drawn away from her thoughts and directed toward the voice that now consumed the silence. Aurora stood there silently until addressed, her hands clasped within one another. "Hello," She quietly voiced as she gave a small wave, head titling just enough to make eye contact with the other two people standing next to her. The pair seemed to be vastly different from one another, from their very apparent age difference to their hair color. However, out of the two, Aurora was very surprised to see the boy that stood directly next to her, he looked so young. There was no way that the boy was over eighteen. His youth brought back memories of the early years when the girl first began the Pokemon Rescue Society, Aurora herself was only in her early teens when she started devoting her time to the creatures. It was nice to see others so young taking the initiative to help those in need.

After her short greeting, Aurora took a quick glance at the Pokemon that stood by their trainers, an Ampharos and an Eelektross. The girl was stunned by what she saw, fully evolved Pokemon were a rare sight to see as most were killed off in their earlier stages, but many did not have a trainer to look after them. It warmed the young woman's heart to see that these two were well taken care of. Soft eyes drifted back over to the Pokemon standing beside her, gratitude filling her heart for the opportunity to know the creature and care for him. Aurora's Lucario, Raiden, was much more than just a Pokemon to her, he was her partner and best friend. She did not view him as some pet that she told what to do, he was like a person and she treated him as such. The girl didn't know what she would do if something happened to him.

The others were soon introduced after Aurora, both scientists with very useful talents that would help the new Goddess in making this planet, Rinea, habitable to Pokemon. The woman was very grateful to have a team to help her as she would not be able to do it alone and in any rescue situation, it was really the team's effort that made the difference, not just one individual. Her attention focused on the man, who now spoke to her directly. "I understand," She replied in a quiet voice, giving the man a quick nod in case he didn't hear her. Once he stepped aside, all that was left to do was step through the portal and begin the task at hand. Aurora gulped nervously, but took the steps necessary to proceed into the new world, Raiden followed close behind.

The feeling of teleportation was something completely new to the Goddess. Once she reached the new planet, her knees buckled and she began to dry heave, stomach flip flopping intensely. It was a sickening feeling, to say the least. Raiden held up much better, with only some dizziness and wobbly legs and was soon hovering over the weakened girl, rubbing her back for comfort. "I-I'm.... ok." Slowly she pulled herself up from the grassy earth, hopefully before any of the others saw how weak her stomach was. Once standing, the girl gazed upon her new home in awe. What laid out in front of her was a spacious plains with lush, green grass, dotted with flowers. Aurora's wide eyes began to tear up, a single drop trickled down her fair cheek as her hands held each other against her chest. In the far distance she saw what looked like the beginning of a forest. "Oh, how beautiful."​

Aurora was so awe struck by the planet's abundance of life, even if it was only flora. The openness of the plains gave her the feeling of endless possibilities. This world, it was hers to create and with the help of her team, they would bring forth a new era of Pokemon and humans, living together once more. It was something she had only been able to dream about before, now the young woman actually had a part to play in that dream. The emotions that ran through her were so strong, they made the Goddess' entire body tingle and warm. Raiden stepped up beside his speechless partner, his own eyes sparking with excitement, her aura mingling into his own. This planet would be his new home as well and he too would play a big part in shaping it, more so than he knew.

A voice from behind pulled the Goddess out of her euphoric state, her body twisting to see the scientist approaching. "Oh, yes, hello," She replied, the words fumbled as she spoke. The girl had almost forgotten about the others who traveled through the portal as well, she was too engulfed by the beauty of her new home. "I'm terribly sorry. I... I'm just so amazed by this place..." Her voice was soft and faded as she spoke, hopeful eyes wandered about for a few moments before they returned to the conversation. "It is nice to meet you, Jade," Aurora's voice retained it's light tone as she spoke, her head dipping slightly as she introduced herself and her partner. "As you know, I am Aurora and this," She gestured to the Lucario who stood in front of her. "is Raiden, my partner." The Pokemon bowed his head once his name was spoken, then returned to his gazing.

"Minor Evolution?" She mumbled, feeling kind of silly for not knowing what the woman was talking about. "What is that?" She asked as Jade handed a small stone to Raiden, who held it within his hands most delicately, not knowing what to do with it. Before an answer could be given, the scientist continued to speak. When she mentioned that Pokemon could now be created, Aurora's eyes lit up. "Oh yes, yes! Let's do that!" She said in an excited voice, hands held together tightly, close to her chin. The girl had already known that there were going to be Pokemon made from the DNA of their partners, it was something that she was informed of when she was appointed Goddess of Rinea, but to be so close to it happening made her ecstatic. However, Aurora did feel a little uneasy putting her friend in such a situation, but there really wasn't much of a choice. There were only three Pokemon on Rinea so far, Raiden included. She had spoken to him about it before their journey into the portal, days before actually. At first, Raiden did not like the idea of some stranger taking a part of him to make another, but he soon realized that it was what needed to be done to save his kind. "Ok, Jade, your first task will be to create a Pokemon from Raiden and umm..." Aurora paused for a second, realizing that she did not know the name of the Ampharos. "I'm sorry, but I don't think I caught the name of your friend there." She said with a nervousness in her voice while her hand scratched at the back of her head.

Before the young woman could get the name of Jade's Pokemon, the youngest of the group approached her. "Oh!" Aurora was a little startled by the sudden appearance of the boy, jumping a bit at the sound of his voice. "Hello, Riley, nice to meet you. I am Aurora and this is Raiden." Again, she gestured to her partner. "Yes, you are the one that can create translators for Pokemon, right?" Aurora had done some homework after taking on the role of Rinea's new Goddess, although her busy schedule with the Pokemon Rescue Society caused her to forget quite a few things that she had read on the many papers she was given. "I believe it would be best if you fashioned some for all of us, then help Jade with creating new Pokemon. Would we perhaps be able to use your partner's DNA as well?" She asked politely, eyeing the Eelektross with those pink awe struck eyes.​

"Amber the Ampharos, very fitting." She mumbled to herself as she watched the scientist set up for her first task, a smile tugged at her faint lips. This was the beginning of their little planet. Soon it would be crawling with Pokemon, all because of the trio that stood in the open field. Aurora felt like she would explode with all of the enthusiasm that was within her. She watched carefully as Jade began the process of creating new life, her ears hung onto every word that was said. "Oh a double type, nice," The young woman mumbled, her eyes wide and glued to the images on the computer screen. A gasp soon escaped her mouth, hands quickly covered it, as eggs began to materialize in the incubators. "Oh my goodness...." The Goddess couldn't believe it, life, being created right before her very own eyes. How amazing! She thought, the possibilities of creation running through her mind. Even her partner couldn't help, but gaze at what was transpiring.

It only took a few moments for the scientist to create the first set of eggs, her partner was quick to settle next to them. It touched Aurora's heart to see that the Pokemon felt something for the little eggs, even if she did not lay them herself. Raiden also crept closer, a little unsure of how he should feel about the growing life. He had never thought about having offspring before, there was no point when he lived on a dying planet. Now there was life all around and he had contributed to a small part of it. His red eyes caught the little pupils of the Ampharos, keen ears listened to every word. There really wasn't much for him to think about, little ones needed looking after and if they had his DNA, then he could not refuse. 'Of course. For the good of this planet, I will protect them with my life.' Raiden spoke confidently with his hand over his chest and gave a small bow to the new Mother.

Aurora wipped a single tear from her wide eye, she was so happy to see such a sight. Although, her attention was soon drawn away from the eggs and their parents as a device was handed to her by the younger of the scientists. "Oh, thank you," She said softly, attaching the translator to her ears. "This will come in handy." The girl smiled as she spoke quietly to herself, excited about being able to understand Pokemon other than her partner. Aurora turned around to look at the larger system that Riley had pointed out. "How do you track Pokemon with it? Is it some kind of radar as well? Can we tag the Pokemon to make it easier in finding a specific one, say if they are sick or something?" The young woman was trying to think of future situations, if Riley was able to create tracking tags for each individual Pokemon, then the team would be able to find the specific Pokemon they were looking for if they were in range of the radar.

Aurora's eyes gleamed at the sight of the Poke'nav, it would make communicating over large distances a breeze and a map was something that was definitely needed. "Wonderful! These are all great devices Riley, thank you." She gave the boy a slight bow of the head in gratitude and adjusted the nav around her left wrist. "Hmm, I think we should think of names for all of the places that we discover." The girl pondered for a bit, trying to think of a suitable name for the plains that they had arrived in. "How about... The Plains of Alkuja? It means The Plains of Beginnings..." She waited quietly for the input of the group.

"Oh, no, I-I mean you are very young, but I'm sure that you wouldn't have been chosen if you were not capable of holding your own." Aurora's words came out a bit fumbled and her face seemed to have a nervous look on it. She wasn't sure what she had done to make the boy think such things, but she sure didn't want him to think that she looked down upon him because of his age. After all, Aurora herself had started out young in the pursuit of helping Pokemon, she did not judge someone by their age, but by their passion and actions.

The talk of creating more Pokemon drew the Goddess right out of her nervous state. Although, this time the girl was awe struck by the Ampharos that began morphing right in front of her. Again, her mouth dropped and hands quickly flew over it. "Oh, my!" She was quite stunned to say the least at what she was witnessing. Mega Evolution was something that she had never saw, only heard about. "This is amazing Jade! We will soon have a strong, happy planet full of Pokemon!" Aurora joined the scientist in cheerful glee as she watched two more eggs be created.

Rinea soon began to shift as time went on while the small group rejoiced in their progress. The sun was setting and the sky was ablaze with streaks of oranges, purples and pinks. A beautiful end to a productive day. Raiden gazed at the natural beauty of the new world, his eyes filled with hope for the future. 'Aurora, we should set up camp. It will be night soon.' The woman turned away from the newly made eggs and examined the sky herself. "Yea, you're right, we should," The girl mumbled as she turned back toward her teammates. "Hey guys, I think we should set up camp now that we have made the eggs. It looks like it'll be dark soon. I have a tarp and metal stakes that we could set up and use for cover if you wanted. I also have a sleeping bag that we could spread out and lay on." She felt terrible that her pack was only able to fit one, but it was better than having to sleep on the bare ground. "I also have an electric lantern along with some other supplies."​

Aurora watched as Jade set up her own shelter and was quite surprised at the size of the tent. The Goddess felt a little embarrassed by her own suggestion after seeing the scientist's set up. Quietly she rummaged through her own pack and took out the supplies that she would need for herself that night. Raiden was at her side and began to move the camping equipment that they had. He rolled out the single sleeping bag next to the large tent, about three feet away. Aurora gave a light sigh once she realized that there wasn't really much for her to do, besides walk over the electric lantern she had clipped to the side of her pack. It was a nice evening and there didn't seem to be a chance of rain so she opted for sleeping under the stars.

Raiden had sat in between the sleeping bag and the tent -on the side where the eggs were- his arms crossed as he waited for his partner to settle. However, before the pink haired woman made it over to her sleeping spot, the Lucario's attention was drawn to the speaking scientist. He was about to decline with a slight head shake, but Aurora intervened. "Of course he will. After all, when they first hatch we want them to know who their parents are, right Raiden?" Normally she wouldn't have taken the decision from him, but it was important for both parents to be there when the babies came into the world.

Raiden gave a small humfph of disapproval, but after thinking about it, he realized that Aurora was right. If his DNA was to be used to create life, then he would at least want the beings to know where they came from. 'I guess it would be the best option. Will you be ok sleeping by yourself?' The Lucario questioned as he rose to his feet. "Yea, I'll be ok. See ya' in the morning. Goodnight," The woman said with a yawn as she crawled into her bag, zipping up the side. 'Goodnight, Aurora.' Once he got the ok, Raiden carefully made his way into the tent and settled himself on the other side of the eggs, across from Amber.​

The sleep gas worked it's magic on the pink haired Goddess, she was not roused by any of the commotion that went on beside her sleeping bag. Raiden however, had been awake for a portion of the raid. His keen ears had heard the stranger once she entered the tent. However, before he was able to attack, a smoke bomb released a thick smog of cover. He was unable to strike with certainty, not wanting to hit Amber, her partner or the eggs, so the Lucario had waited for a clear shot. Unfortunately, that shot never came. Before he was able to defend against the intruder, a few attacks from the battling Pokemon inside the tent had knocked him unconscious. By the time he came to, the pillagers had fled.

Aurora's mind felt hazy as her purple-blue eyes fluttered open, Jade's screams had pulled her from the chemically prolonged slumber. "Wha-" She felt disorientated and had no idea what had just transpired. A few of the scientist's words had broken through her foggy mind, horrible, stole, Raiden, egg. None of it made any sense to the woman, so she sprung out of her sleeping bag to find out what all the fuss was about. She stumbled over to the others, still groggy from the bomb that she was unknowingly exposed to. "What's wrong? Jade what happened?" The scientist disappeared into her tent before and answer was given. Aurora quickly followed.

Raiden was now conscious and sat in the corner of the large tent, his face plagued with an odd expression. His eyes were focused on the soon to be hatched egg, but something about him read, disappointment. Maybe it was the way he was standing, or the slump in his shoulders, Aurora couldn't really place what it was, but she saw it. Before she was able to ask him what was wrong, a slight movement was spotted from where the egg sat. The young woman's attention was immediately drawn to the little oblong object, a crack now visible. "Oh!" She gasped as she dropped to her knees. Slowly the Goddess crawled over to the scene and sat next to her partner, excitement coursed through her. It hadn't been very long since the egg was created and already the creature inside was ready to start it's new life. The crack split the egg and out came an oddly colored Riolu with an Mareep tail. "Amazing..." Aurora mumbled, awe struck by the new baby. Even her partner was taken aback by the creature that his DNA helped to create, but his wonder lasted only a few minutes before he went back to his serious demeanor. 'Aurora, I know this is suppose to be a joyful moment, but we have a problem.' The woman turned toward the Lucario, confusion apparent on her face. 'An intruder has stolen the other three eggs. We must find her.' His face was hard and anger boiled beneath his fur as he spoke, teeth barred.

The Goddess was speechless for a few seconds, not sure what to think of this new information. She was never informed of others living on the planet, nor was she told of anyone that wanted to sabotage their mission. "Do we know where she went?" Aurora replied softly as she tried to hold back her own frustration and sadness. Before the Lucario could respond, a shout came from outside the tent, it was Riley. Quickly the two rose from their spots and exited, eager to find out what was going on. "Wait, wait!" The woman pleaded, her hands flew up and waved about to get the boy's attention. "Before we go running off after some mysterious girl, let's talk." She took a deep breath before continuing. "I'm still not sure what has happened, besides three of our eggs being stolen. I understand that finding those eggs is a top priority, but we also have to think about the new baby that was just born." Longingly the Goddess looks back at the tent for a few seconds, wanting to be around their first successfully created and hatched Pokemon, but there was business that had to be taken care of first. "This woman might come back for it and possibly for the other two eggs. We must protect what we still have. I think that we should split up. One of us should go after this thief, while the others watch out for the babies we have. As Goddess of Rinea, I feel as if it should be my responsibility to find this woman."​

Aurora grew sad at the sight of Jade's anger. The Goddess felt terrible about what had happened as well, but she knew that acting on the strong emotion lead to rash decisions. "I understand Jade, as long as we make a plan before we go running off after this woman. I want to catch her just as badly as you do, but I don't want anyone else getting hurt in the process." Her eyes furrowed toward the end of her speech, the woman's attitude turning to that of a serious nature. She almost mimicked the look of her Pokemon partner, with a little more practice she could match his intensity.

The Goddess gasped at the scientist's newly formed creation, it reminded her of something out of a comic book. "Well..." She whispered. "I'm sure that that woman will not see this coming." Aurora stood there for a few seconds as she marveled over the invention, before Raiden stepped up and nudged her side. 'You should prepare yourself as well.' He murmured a little uneasily, not very happy that his partner may have to engage in battle. Nevertheless, the pink haired woman gave him a confident nod and walked over to her pack. What she pulled out from it was an extendable metal rod, a small retractable knife and thick leggings. While rummaging through the bag she also found a little surprise that her partner had packed away, two gas masks, one for each of them. The woman gave a chuckle at the conversation she was now remembering about the masks that the two of them had had while packing for Rinea. Raiden had suggested to bring them, just in case the new planet had a toxic area, but Aurora was sure that there would be no such place. Thankfully, the Lucario did not listen. He only smirked at the sight of his quick thinking. "I know, I know. You were right." She tossed the smaller mask to her partner and threw the other one around her neck for quick access, Raiden did the same.

Quickly she slipped off her boots and pulled the leggings over her stockings, the boots back in place on her feet afterwards. Carefully she tucked the knife into her left boot and held fast her rod, still retracted within it's self. If Jade wanted to find this thief, she would not do it alone. Using brute force was something that Aurora tried her best to avoid, but sometimes it could not be helped. Being born on a dying planet meant that the Goddess was accustomed to some pretty nasty situations, she was a gentle soul, but knew how to defend herself if need be. She walked back over to the group, "Good thinking Jade." She said as the new born Pokemon was sucked up into the Pokeball. "I'm ready when you are."

Before the Goddess and scientist set out on their mission, Riley chimed in. "We will be careful and you should too. There may be more people like her here." Aurora took a quick glance at the tree line in the distance, wondering if there were any eyes out there, watching them. "If anything happens on our end we'll contact you as soon as possible, make sure that you do the same." The woman didn't comment on the boy's ruthless words, killing was something that she had not thought of. Sure, defending one's self was appropriate when the time came, but to kill... that was something completely different. Aurora didn't want to think about that possibility. Instead, she looked up at the rising sun. It's rays warmed her body and fueled the fire that was building inside.​

Aurora followed Jade closely as they made their way through the forest, it had only taken them about thirty minutes to reach it from the plains. Raiden was at her side the entire time. When the group reached the campsite, it was as if everything went quiet and still. All eyes were on the scattered eggshells, broken and burnt. The Goddess was speechless, as was her partner. Tears began to run down her fair face, quiet sobs followed. The woman knelled down and picked up a charred shell, she held it delicately within her hands. "I...I-I don't know...." Aurora gently placed the shell down and picked up the note that laid next to Jade. "This... this is horrible.... Jade, we must find this woman... we must stop her." More tears slide down her face as she tried to piece together the reasoning behind the thief's actions. Who would want to kill unborn Pokemon? What would be the purpose? Raiden came up behind his partner and placed a hand on her shoulder. 'Aurora...' He murmured as he gestured toward Jade.

The Goddess attempted to wipe her face free of liquid, but more replaced it. She rose from her spot in front of the fire pit and slowly made her way over to the scientist, stumbling as she did so. "Jade... it'll be ok. We still have Roary and the other two eggs. We must continue on and find this woman." Aurora knelled once more, this time next to the weeping woman. She wrapped a comforting arm around her shoulder. "There was nothing we could do... but next time, she will not take from us so easily." Her voice became hard as she spoke, an anger filling her like never before. Aurora had seen terrible things, but the killing of unborn Pokemon was not one of them. Raiden stood next to Amber and mimicked his partner, throwing an arm around the Ampharos for comfort.​
