Welcome everyone to the second part of our two for one special. This chapter takes of immediately after chapter 5.

I ran around a corner, staff at the ready, like a lion moving in for the kill.
The other entrances were sealed off,so she could only escape through the main one.
I put on my signature mask a simple piece of blackened leather that covered the lower portion of my face, rather much like a ninja.
Once I arrived at the main lobby, I darted through the nearest path to the holding cells.
Whichever idiot designed the place didn't have maneuverability in mind.
Once I arrived in the general vicinity of the captive, I entered a fighting stance.
Boy, she would know the true meaning of pain by the time I am done with her.

Once I cleared the horde of grunts, I proceeded to the main lobby.
Or, at least, that's what I would have done.
I encountered some opposition from a well trained field agent, somewhat familiar.
The loss, to say the least, was embarrasing.

She started with a straight strike to my abdomen, which I easily deflected.
I countered with a roundhouse kick to the shoulder.
The target proceeded to throw a punch to my solar plexus.
I tensed.
She was proving to be quite the nuisance.
I whipped out my staff, and made a stiff swing to the back of the neck.
Her pupils dilated, then she slumped to the ground, unconscious.
I pulled out my radio, and called in.
This was easier than expected.

After our little skirmish, I hauled the unconscious soul back to the cell block.
She really did a number on the door, that's for sure.
I left her there, and made sure the room was actually secure.
I then made my way to the mission area.
Uncle, or the Boss to everyone else, walked up to me, and asked to have a word.
"Ash, you have done very well so far, and I think you deserve the honour of an apprentice."
On cue, a girl appeared, with honeysuckle blond hair, blue eyes and the tiniest hands in the world.
She held out said hands, for a handshake.
"My name Is Serena Gabena, and I am the new member of your unit.
I took her hand.
Little did I know that from that moment, life went crazy.

Far off, in a cave in mount Coronet there lay three orbs, one red, one blue one grey.
One Adamant.
One Lustrous.
One Griseous.
They cracked, And a bright blue light shone out of them.

In Johto, the bells in the Tin tower, silent for generations rang.

In Ashes room, the crystal in his staff glistened.

In a far and distant realm, the Hall of Origin, a creature lay, calm, sleeping.
This creature was vastly white in appearance, with a golden ring surrounding it's abdomen.
This creature's eyelids suddenly fluttered, the creature drifting into a lighter sleep.
This creature's name, was Arceus.
