This world is yours and yours alone. The future is not written. Choose your own path.

A graceful, celestial aura hindered by the forever gloomy glare of darkness. It is here that my thoughts are scattered. But... who am I? What is this that I'm seeing? Why was I left all alone in this place?

Floating...

Thoughts adrift...

This void fills me with wonder and mystery. But a strange sense of falling is also occurring. Time is frozen. And yet, I move. But... how am I moving? What exactly is moving? I see no arms. No legs. Nothing but this atmosphere.

I feel invincible... and yet, completely vulnerable.

The aura continues to wave on through the darkness.

It is when my mind begins to empty... that I notice a light. A small speck growing slightly in size as it approaches. My attention is drawn to this light. Somehow... an omniscient power is present within it.

"So it is time..." A voice emits from the light. A deep, firm voice that has no intention of breaking. However, my confusion overcomes my will to speak back. "Very soon you will set off on the journey that you have been seeking your whole life. And you will reach the end to that journey. I await you there."

"Wait!" Somehow, I manage to call out.

"W-Where am I? Who are you? Or who am I for that matter!?"

A slight pause.

"... You do not remember?"

"I have no memory..." I respond.

"Hm..." I wait patiently for what this light has to say. "Then perhaps I will guide you for your first steps. You... are the one seeking to kill me."

"W-What!?"

"With the willpower that you possess, you are the only one capable of killing me. That is... if you can. You believed that I was not helpful to this world, and that I must be removed in order to free everyone."

"But who are you!?"

"I am... the one who created this planet. I am the one who gave life to all Pokemon. I am the one that stands above all others. I am known as a god.

"I am Arceus."

"Arceus..." The name echoes throughout. But I do not sense any familiarity. But as a god, maybe he knows this place. "Do you know what this place is, Arceus?"

"This area is filled with an enriching aura, and a never ending void of darkness. A rather peculiar energy to be in your conscience."

"My... conscience?"

"Only a select few have a neutrality as firm as yours. And it is with this neutral disposition that you will find your journey to be complicated. But as I said, you will see the end."

"Why... if you know that I want to kill you, then why are you telling me this?"

"Perhaps... it is that small bit of determination inside of you- that power that I wish to see. With your memory missing, you shall learn more about yourself, and maybe understand it all better in the end."

"How did I lose my memory?"

"In due time, my friend. It will all become clear."

The god, Arceus... helping me with my memory. I wanted to kill him? To "free the world?" What's that suppose to mean? Ack! W-What is...!? My head...

"We're all in this together. No backing out now."

"Let's free this world! Let's gain back control of our lives!"

"Today, we set off to do the one thing no one else has ever done. We... will kill a god!"

Ugh! The pain... it's fading...

That last voice... was me. I'm sure of it. I- no... we wanted to kill Arceus. We wanted to control our futures. I remember that much...

"Arceus." I spoke to him. "I don't understand why you would help someone who wants to kill you. But I do know, I will find a way. I will reach you. And I will take back the lives of all the Pokemon!"

"Such interesting ideology... Very well then. I patiently await for your arrival. May our paths cross."

"Before you depart, I ask one last thing from you, Arceus?"

"And what may that be?"

"Please... who am I?"

"Hm..." As he delayed his answer, the void surrounding us began to fade white. I could feel my power... my life come back to me.

"It is time for you to awaken, Xeno..."

"Xeno..." I repeated the name.

There was nothing but white light.

Gasping in shock at the return to life, my eyes widened as I was brought back to reality.

Rain. Nothing but rain and more rain from the dark night sky surrounding me from every direction. My red and yellow fur completely drenched. I stared at my paws. A fire-type is no good in this weather. I have to move. It is here that I notice my environment. Leaning against a giant rock, my body sat in what is now a rather muddy area in the middle of a forest. Thick-leave trees obscured my vision. However, there was a faint light in the distance. My only choice is to head towards it. Before standing up, I notice a rather long, narrow stick beside me. I grasp it in my paw. A warmth pulses from inside. Yes... a familiar feeling radiates from it. This is my wand. It must stay close to me.

I finally stand up and take my first steps. Did... I really talk with Arceus? And those other voices I heard... Friends? Allies? Who were they? … I shook my head. I will find out soon. They shared the same belief that I have; To free this world from the control of gods.

Gentle steps are taken into the foreboding forest. Dangers may lie in wait. But I will not let those stop me from completing my task.

My whole past is a blur to me. Nothing but my name, and my belief carry me forward in this unknown world.

I don't know how, but I'm going to find you Arceus.

And I'm going to kill you.

For everyone's sake.
