It was a sight to see in the Hall of Origin. Arceus' youngest creations were cowering behind older ones, never having seen him so defenseless in their lives. Mew and Regigigas desperately tried to pull the being of Antimatter away from their leader, but the beast would not hear of it. He spun around, bashed his tail into Mew, and then aimed a huge Hyper Beam at Regigigas. Arceus' two best, and trusted fighters, stepped back, glancing at each other.

Arceus glared at Giratina as he rubbed ash from the Hyper Beam off of his snow-white clothes.

Giratina stepped forward, reverting to a human form where his hair was messy and blond, eyes ruby red, and skin pale. He grabbed Arceus' by the front of his shirt and pulled him close enough to see the dark red flecks that made up the red in his eye. Arceus flinched slightly, turning Giratina's snarl into a deep frown.

"Where is she!" Giratina roared. "What the hell did you do with her!"

"With WHO?" Arceus snapped.

"You know exactly!" Giratina shoved him back. Regigigas stepped forward and grabbed Arceus, hauling him to his feet. "She's not at the meeting right now, is she? Darkrai and Manaphy haven't seen her! No one has!"

Confused, Arceus threw his hand to the side, the golden circle around his head flashing green. Vines broke through the hard marble ground, wrapping around Giratina and clamping his mouth shut. He struggled to get out. At this point, the younger Legendaries bolted out of the room: out went Darkrai and Cresselia's children, the Roaming Beasts' respective children, and Manaphy. Shay, a young Shaymin, cowered back burrowing his face into Entei's long, soft fur. The beast brought the young Legendary around as if to protect him.

"Giratina!" Entei roared.

The Hyper Beam forming between Giratina's two hands exploded from his surprise. Arceus, Regigigas, and Mew jerked back and glanced at Entei. Usually the lion never spoke up, always quiet and reserved. Suicune and Raikou gave him terrified looks.

"Giratina, look what you're doing." Entei stood up, Shay at his feet. "You're terrifying him. Calm down, take a few deep breaths, and tell us what is wrong."

Huffing, Giratina crossed his arms and sat down on the steps leading up to where Arceus, Regigigas, and Mew sat. He glared at the Legends around the room, glared at the dark gray rug that split the room in half. Shay ran up the steps, changing form until he was a human.

"M-Mom's…" Strong arms wrapped around Shay. Giratina pulled him onto his lap and let him rest his head on his shoulder. "She's gone…I haven't seen her in weeks, Papa."

"I know," Giratina said. "No one bothered to tell me. We'll find her."

Arceus' eyes narrowed. "What do you mean you haven't seen her in weeks?" he asked. "This is the time she usually leads the Shaymin to a new spot in Sinnoh." He glared at his son. "Giratina, you do not know where Shaymin is?"

"No," Giratina growled. He ran a hand through Shay's soft green hair, brushed a finger across the Gracedia Flower pinned to his necklace. "She usually keeps in contact with me, but suddenly…it stopped. I heard an ear shattering scream and came here right away."

Tears fell down Shay's face, soaking into Giratina's dark gray jacket.

"Oh, no, don't cry," Giratina said desperately as he rubbed Shay's back. "Please don't."

"Get her back," Shay squeaked. "Please Papa."

"I will. I promise."

Someone cleared their throat. Giratina unwillingly diverted his gaze from Shay to look at the looming form of Mewtwo.

"What do you want?" Giratina growled.

"I may know where she is," Mewtwo said.

Arceus leaned forward. "Seriously?" he asked.

"Yes. I've been hanging around a Team Rocket base, and I keep hearing something about, 'We've finally caught her!' I wasn't sure who it was until just a few minutes ago."

Legendaries around the room crowded around.

"Like those Galactic people?" Heatran asked.

"Each one of your regions has had an evil team running amuck." Metwo glanced around, gaze lingering on Giratina the longest. "Team Rocket, Magma and Aqua, Galactic, Plasma and each has their own but similar goals; get the Legendary Pokemon."

Giratina stood up. "What the hell is Team Rocket doing with a Sinnoh Pokemon?" he asked then shook his head. "I don't want to know…" He trailed off as Shay wrapped his arms around his neck. "Which Team Rocket base?"

"Right outside of Cerulean City."

"I'm leaving." Giratina turned to hand Shay to Arceus but Mewtwo stopped him.

"This is exactly what they want you to do. They know that a higher up Legendary will come to attack, and they've prepared for it. You can't go in there."

He was right. Giratina cursed under his breath and turned to Arceus, hoping for an answer. But the god had none. He looked deep in thought.

"You can't just go in there and run rampant- you're one of a kind and they'll definitely want to capture you for their own evil deeds." Arceus scratched the side of his head. "You know what? Mewtwo- go with him. Stay in your human forms."

The cat looked appalled. "I refuse," he said.

"You have the most knowledge of Team Rocket, having been created by them. This is an order!"

Metwo forced back an angry growl. "Fine," he said and looked away.

Giratina gave Shay a big hug before turning and handing him to Arceus. "I'll be back," he said to the boy, "and I'll have Shaymin with me."

"Please come back," Shay cried. "Please."

"I promise." Giratina took a deep breath and walked down the steps. The farther down he got, the more angry he became. Team Rocket stole Shaymin from him, kidnapped her! And it was all to get him to come down there? Oh, he thought, they were going to get more than they bargained for.


Shinzu: Eh, I hope you like it so far! The next chapter is twice as long as this, as will every chapter. What is Giratina x Shaymin called? I have no idea. ._. Anyway, credit for the plot goes to a friend of mine.

Please review!
