Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

[Monochrome]

Luck Gone Bad?

It had been a few hours since Gage brought the body back into the center dumping it at the door stop and even though the thought of the corpse still sickened him he slowly began feeling hungry. He got up and walked over to the desk to ask for directions.

"Nurse... Do you know where if their are any resturaunts in the areas? My friend and I are getting a tad hungry." He stared at her slowly waiting for a response and the polite smile on his face slowly fadded into a disgruntled frown.

"Ma'am? Excuse me?" Still no response, she didn't even seem to acknowledge him at all.

"Alrighty then...." Gage walked away from the desk and sat back down next to Angela.

"Jeez, can you believe this people? I mean I know I walked in the building with a corpse on my shoulders but its not like it was just some guy, it was Beo for god sake, we should be being treated like heros right now!" But Angela, not unlike the nurse, stayed stiffly asleep taking no heed to Gage whatsoever.

"Angela are you okay?" Gage looked deep into her eyes and saw something was wrong. He did everything he could to wake her up, he snapped his fingers, he yelled he tapped her shoulder but there was no response, she just remained asleep.

"FINE THEN... DRASTIC MEASURES!" He braced himself and took a deep breath from inside his nostrils. He slowly extended a finger and poked the side of her breast immidiatly jumping across the room and taking shelter in a corner for fear of severe beatings. But still nothing happened. He stared at her and bent forward looking at her face as she continued snoozing under her hat.

"Oh Gage...." He heard an old familiar voice followed by a dark chuckle. He turned his head and sitting there on the desk was Beo alive and well staring down on him with his usual cocky smile. Gage looked around and then smiled.

"I get it now... This is all a dream, just a horrible dream, stuff like this doesn't happen in real life." He turned and put his hand on Angelas cheek, "But, it's a damn convincible one!" Beo began laughing again.

"Silly boy, don't you realize that everything you've done since the day Oak brought you kids in.. it's all been apart of the game?" His lips curled up in a dark tainted smile and Gage frowned taking his hand from the fake Angelas cheek.

"What do you mean game...?" Gage stared at him as he jumped off the desk and put one hand out making and open palmed hand gesture.

"Well what if I were to say I planned for everything to work out this way.. And that I wasn't really dead? Well I'm not pretty much the shadows have taken there full effect on me, and when I was stabbed it wasn't me.. That body by your friend there isn't me.. It's actually a shadow clone" he began rapping his fingers off a nearby desk.

"I would say you this is one ****ed up dream and that you have a damn screw loose... Even if that was true it doesn't explain why I can't talk to any of these people." Beos hand closed tight and his face went completely serious at Gages question.

"Oh thats simple Gage.. For every shadow clone created it takes a sacrifice... You my friend were that sacrifice.." His eyes took an intense focus on Gage.

"Are you saying I'm dead?" Gage asked in confusion.

"It means your now trapped in a dimension between the world, and the shadows.. No one can see or hear you, you basically don't exsist anymore Gage, and before I'd go I'd like to thank you for playing this exciting game with me." He snapped his fingers and was enveloped with darkness dissapearing into the wall.

"NO!" Gage yelled, "I treated your body with respect! I couldve thrown you in a freaking ditch but I let you go! WHAT THE HELL DID I EVER DO! I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE! WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE JUST KILLED ME!? ANYTHING WOULD BE BETTER THAN THIS."

Gage sat down in the seat he was in and clutched his knees trying to think of what he could do next. He couldn't live like this forever, he couldn't stay stuck alone in this dimension. He took a deep breath and looked down, a single tear tread down his cheek and although it fell off his cheek it never struck the ground. He really didn't exist anymore....

Chapter Gage

Alone?
​

You slowly make your way outside the pokemon center, and suddenly you realize you have forgotten about your pokemon! So you quickly check to see if they are there.. And to your surprise they are. You let them out to see if they can see you... They can...

You then sigh with relief knowning your not compeltly alone, but before you have time to think what to do next you are attack from behind.

"Charmelon Dragon Rage!" A voice shouts as a Charmeleon comes rushing at your pokemon.
Charmeleon

Lvl 24
Moves:
Dragon rage

Ember
Scratch

"Wartortle Rapid spin" He shouts right after giving you no time to react.

moves:

"Ivysaur razor leaf!" he shouts again quickly.

You can use three of your pokemon for this.. You quickly have your pokemon dodge, and you start ordering commands as well.. But you start to wonder how this kid can see you when your supposed to be trapped in another dimension. You start asking the kid questions during your battle but he doesn't respond... Finally he says something that scares you...

"Ahh how are these wild pokemon using such good fighting techniques.. I want to catch them already!" The kid yells to his team..

Then it hits you, your pokemon can see you, but at the same time there visible to the outside world.. Which could be dangerous for them...

Chapter Grecko

The Time travel theory revealed
​

You look at prof elm, confused and you think he has really lost his marbles.. But he looks at you with a serious face.. "Yes time travel.. our research over the years have shown two beings possess the power to travel through the voids of time, one here, and one in Shinnoh.. Your job is to try and capture this time travel pokemon" he says as he hands you the files and you look into it..

Celebi
It has the power to travel through time, but only appears at peaceful times.

"So what is time travel going to do?" You ask as you look at this pokemon closely.

"simply put, were going to have you travel back to the day of the pokemon league finals.. and kill Beo before this all happens.." He says with a sad look on his face..

"but if that happens, then everything i've worked for, and everythingi've done with my pokemon will all be lost" you say back to him.

"But it's the right thing to do.. it may be the only way to really lift the darkness" he says.. finally you accept the mission..

"Head to the Ilex forest on your Starraptor, when you get there you'll find a shrine, but it's very confusing in the shadows of the forest don't get lost" He says as you let out Starraptor and jump on it's back.

"Oh and one more thing take this two feathers with you" he says as he hands you a silver feather and a rainbow feather you wonder what these are as you take off into the sky..

Chapter Shaun

A chance at a do over?
​

"Tim travel is what will save this world from the on coming darkness now that both the ledgendary shadow beasts are together" Rowan says to you.

You ask him how time traveling is even possible.
"There exsist two beings with the power to travel through time.. you'll be going after this one" he says as he hands you the files.

Dialga
It is said that time flows when Dialga's heart beats.

You stare at this creature and realize this could be the power you've been searching for all along...

"So what do I do when I capture this pokemon?" you ask..

"Well you'll meet up with the other Kid who is currently in search of Celebi the other time travel pokemon, and you two will go back to the pokemon league finals and kill Beo before any of this happens.. Then none of this would have ever happened" he says to you..

You don't understand why but you feel you need to do this.. at least to see if your powerful enough to capture such a beast.. so you accept..

"Where do i go?" you ask..

"Go to the spear pillar, if you are strong enough it will show up" he says as he hands you a pokeball with a pidgeot in it, and you take off into the sky towards the sky pillar...

OOC: Omg! So excited I stuck with Oak! This is an awsome story line!!! :)

"Time travel is what will save this world," Professor Rowan explained patiently to Shaun. He held out a file. "With this, you can go back in time and save us all."

Shaun frowned at the hope lacing the Professor's voice. "And just how is time travel done, exactly?" he asked. All his pokemon had been returned except Weavile, incase another man attacked, and he was looking at the Professor as if he were crazy.

"There are two pokemon capable of time travel," Rowan explained, thrusting the file into Shaun's hands. "One is Celebi, who lives in Johto, and the other is this pokemon," Rowan explained, pointing at the pokemon on the file.

"There is already another boy who is on a mission to capture Celebi in Johto," Rowan continued, "and it is up to you to capture this pokemon, Dialga."

Shaun stared at the picture of the pokemon. This pokemon... Dialga... it could be the power he had been searching for. "Where do I need to go?" he asked gruffly, pleased to see Weavile looking at the picture with a smirk. It clearly wanted to fight this beast.

"At Spear Pillar," Rowan said as he released a Pidegot. "Take Pidgeot, for she knows the way. If you are strong enough, Dialga shall appear. Do you believe you are?"

Shaun scowled at the man. If he weren't strong, he would be dead, just like the others he had killed. "Return," he said instead to Weavile. He hopped on the giant bird and nudged its side. "Let's go," he ordered.

With a loud cry, Pidgeot took to the sky, and with her Shaun on her back. Without a backwards glance or a goodbye, Shaun disappeared into the sky, and Professor Rowan prayed that the young man would make the right choice...

Alone?

Gage realized Angela wasn't going to wake up anytime soon and just sitting there and watching all the people was becoming depressing. He stratched and walked outside, he still couldn't believe what was going on, he had been cheated out of his chance to prove himself. What would his grandfather do without him? What about Angela? She was strong but she couldn't do it alone! And what about his Pokemon? His Pokemon! Gage thrust his hand into the overcoat he wear and found his hand resting on three Pokeballs. A wide smile apeared on Gages face.

"Come on you three!" Gage said releasiing the three Pokemon he knew he could trust; Angel, Brick, and of course Spoons! The three Pokemon came out like they always did, nothing weird about them. "Can you guys hear me or see me?"

"Of course we can." Came a psychic response from Spoons as Brick brushed up against Gage happily and Angel made jooyous clicking sounds.

"Oh thank god! Something went terribly wrong I have to explain. Beo-"

"Charmeleon Dragon Rage, Wartortle Rapid Spin, Ivysaur Razor Leaf, lets get them!" A loud voice inturrupted Gage as three small Pokemon began their assault on his Pokemon.

"Everyone dodge!" Gage yelled quickly and all of his Pokemon narrily dodged the incomming attacks. "Now, Spoons Shadow Ball, Brick use Rock Throw, and Angel you use your Fury Attack!" Gage yelled. All three of the attack connected and did considerable damage, Gage was proud of his Pokemon. "Great job guys!" And then his attention changed to focus on the kid. "How can you see me?" But no response, "Hey kid damnit! Why the hell are you ignoring me? Oh wait...."

The kid finally piped up, "Wow guys, these wild Pokemon are really tough! I wonder what their doing in a town like this? Nevermind, I'm going to make them mine! Now, Charmeleon Ember, Wartortle Water Gun, and Ivysaur Vine Whip!"

"Spoons grab Angel and Brick and then use Teleport!" Spoons followed instructions perfectly and all of Gages Pokemon easily dodged the attacks.

"Gage? Why can't he see you and why does he think we're wild?" Spoons voice rung in Gages head. Gage gripped his teeth and it all made sense, the boy could see his Pokemon but not him, this was going to be bad...

 

[tim0789]

time travel...unravel!

"Time Travel.." Grecko said in his head as he looked at Elm with an odd look. Grecko didnt know whether to believe it or not. "Yes time travel.. our research over the years have shown two beings possess the power to travel through the voids of time, one here, and one in Shinnoh.. Your job is to try and capture this time travel pokemon" he says as he hands Grecko the files and he looksin it..

Celebi
It has the power to travel through time, but only appears at peaceful times. Grecko reads this and than looks up to Elm.

"So what is time travel going to do?" Grecko ask as he looks at the pokemons info closely.

Elm looks kind of sad for a second and than says "simply put, were going to have you travel back to the day of the pokemon league finals.. and kill Beo before this all happens.."

This comment hits Grecko hard and he kind of stumbles backwards before saying "but if that happens, then everything i've worked for, and everything i've done with my pokemon will all be lost"

Elm looks like hes actually about to shed a tear and he says "But it's the right thing to do.. it may be the only way to really lift the darkness"

Grecko takes a breath and than takes the courage to give his answer to Elm..."Maybe it won't be to bad to get a new chance, atleast all those people ive killed will be alive again and i will never have to experience the darkness i have now...but ill be a hero...and no one will know...but i guess all good things come with a price."

Elm listens to Greckos response and gives a sigh of relife than says "Thats very mature Grecko now heres what you must do...Head to the Ilex forest on your Starraptor, when you get there you'll find a shrine, but it's very confusing in the shadows of the forest don't get lost"

"I understand!" Grecko says as he hopes on starraptor.

As he is about to leave Elm runs over to him and grabs his hand."Oh and one more thing take this two feathers with you" he says as he hands Grecko a silver feather and a rainbow feather.

Grecko than takes off through the roof in the ceiling and heads towards the ilex forest with the two feathers in his hands. He than stares at the feathers and remembers the stories his dad used to tell him about a hero who used some kind of wing to capture a legendary pokemon and help save the world, and than Grecko starts to wonder if maybe his father has been preparing him for this since he was toddler.

[ShadowYashi]

"Piikachu"

Bolt sat boredly in Angela's arms, while she and Gage sat in the Center's comfy chairs, awaiting a reply from Sly "Grr what the heck is taking so long for that woman to reply" she grumbled irately while Bolt nodded in agreement, he wanted to sleep in a nice warm bed "Chaaa" for now however, he'd settle for Angela's arms, the electric mouse quickly drifted into a deep sleep "Mmm Bolt's got the right... Ahh Idea" Angela mumbled biting back a yawn as she glanced tiredly at Gage "I'm gonna take a nap alright, can you wake me when they call?"

Gage had a distant look in his eyes, but nodded in response "Good to know he's not completely blanked out" she thought giving a wry smile before resting her head on his shoulder and shifting into a more comfortable position for herself and Bolt. Angela also hid a small smile when she felt Gage stiffen slightly from contact and then relaxing "G'night Gage" was the last thing she remembered mumbling before drifting off into a nice slumber.

"Pika. Pikachuu"

Angela sleepily batted the prodding paw away, Bolt was poking her for some reason "Not now Bolt, I'm trying to sleep" she mumbled and Bolt took the initiative to prod even harder, causing Angela to frown and mumble again "Stop it Bolt, I wanna sleep!" Bolt gave an annoyed huff and apologized mentally, before his cheeks sparked violently "Piikachuuuuuuu!!!" Angela got the shock of her life as she felt electricity run through her entire system, not to mention, her hair was sticking out so wildly, it looked like she licked an electric socket "What the hell was that for Bolt!" Angela went to glare at the Pikachu, but paused when he gave her a worried stare and pointed to where Gage was "Pikachuuu"

Or where, he used to be. Gage wasn't sitting in his spot and Beo's body wasn't there either "Aah maybe he just went to the bathroom or something Bolt, I'm sure Gage is fine" she told the mouse, brushing off his disappearance off as nothing. 10 minutes later, Gage had yet to return and Angela was beginning to get worried "Alright Gage, enough playing... c'mon out" she glanced around the Pokemon Center and saw no sign of the boy "Pikachu" Bolt shook his head, not spotting him anywhere "Lets try an find him alright" Angela pulled out Houndour's Pokeball and released the fire pup "Houndour, go with Bolt and look for Gage alright. You remeber what Gage smells like right?" Houndour gave a light nod and Bolt hopped onto the canine's back and the two dashed off in the direction opposite of Angela, as she ran up to the nearest Nurse.

"Excuse me.. Nurse Joy, did you happen to see the boy that came in with me... He was carting the dead body or the guy that was trying to kill us with him" she asked and the nurse looked at her like she was insane before blinking and giving a light cough "I saw him earlier, but after a while, he kinda just disappeared... I'm sorry dear" Angela gaped at the red haired woman in disbelief, before stepping away.

"That bastard left me" That was her only conclusion and it pissed her off.

After several minutes of running around the center and getting the same answer over and over again, Angela took a seat in a booth and waited for Bolt and Houndour to come back "I can't believe he left me" she grumbled crossing her arms over her chest and glaring at the table, Bolt and Houndour sat in the booth seat across from her, giving her worried glances from time to time "I'll kick his ass when we meet up again" Bolt felt a drop of sweat run down his head, while a Nurse Joy popped up beside Angela, tapping her on the shoulder "Umm miss, there's a phone call for you"

"Huh?" Angela blinked before following Nurse Joy to the video phone, with Bolt and Houndour in tow. When they made it to the phone, Angela was slightly shocked to see Sly's face pop on the screen, there were creases in her brown, she looked tired and worried... she looked old "Angela." she began sadly and Angela felt something deep in the pit of her stomach tighten "We have some bad news..." Angela gulped before asking her what's the problem "Its Gage." she froze on her side of the phone, while Bolt and Houndour perked up "We found his body lying outside the base and we think Tai might've caught him off guard and killed him, before sending him back here through the shadows"

"W-What... But how, Gage was with me the entire time we were in the center.. he was right beside me, even when I went to take a na--" Angela froze mid sentence, her eyes widening in realization. Tai must've gotten Gage when she went to sleep! That's why he wasn't at the Center! "I need you to report back to the Base ASAP. I'll send a Pidgeot to come pick you up, so be ready" Angela noded solemnly and the line was cut. She blinked at Bolt and Houndour, who were saddened by the news "He's dead..." she whispered.

A few hours later, Angela and Bolt made it back to the base, where Sly stood at the docks, waiting for her arrival, both woman shared a brief look before sly led Angela to a small room, where Gage's lifeless body lay splayed out on a cot. Angela studied his body, something didn't feel right "Hey.... Where are his Pokemon?" she glanced at Sly for an answer and she shrugged "We don't know, they weren't with the body and I have my men searching for them... I'm sorry" she mumbled looking away Angela just stared.

She also stared when they held a small service and funeral for Gage, before burying his body. She stared and stared, standing her her spot until it was dark outside and even then she reluctantly trudged back to the tent they once shared, staring up at the ceiling, stroking Bolt's ears gently, he was curled up in a ball on her stomach, wondering what happened to Gage "Hey Bolt..." the Pikachu in question lifted his head up from his curled position and stared at Angela "Pika?" she sighed softly "Do you think... you think this is all my fault?"

"Piikachuuu"

He shook his head no sadly, before climbing off her stomach and walking over to cuddle up by her chest, while she rolled onto her side and hugged the mouse tightly before they both drifted off into a silent dreamless sleep.
