The Lost Light

A/N: Yo people! Triforcelord here, with the next chapter of this wonderful story! It really hasn't been all that long since I last updated, so I hope you guys are happy with the relatively small update gaps. You know, I remember the days when I was just starting out with my writing, and updated once every few days or sooner. Well, that's been shot to hell. Oh well, I blame school. By the way, for those of you who don't know, high school is the scourge of a teenager's existence. I hate it with a burning passion. Well, enough of that. Let's get on with the chapter!

The Lost Light Chapter Three: Getting To Know Each Other…Somewhat

I woke up to a weird smell. It kinda smelled like my room when Jake decided it would be a good idea to cover my room in dirt and attempt to plant fast-growing fuckin' flowers! It wasn't the smell that I hated, it was just the fact that my floor had been covered in dirt, which I found out after I had tried to get out of bed.

Remembering Jake's pranks, I smiled, but then I remembered where I was and why I was here, and I wiped the smile off my face immediately.

Opening my eyes and groaning, I sat up. When I did, I saw that I was sitting on a bed of leaves. Goddamnit! Now I have to say thank you to that blue asshole!

"So, you're up." Said a voice to my right.

Speaking of blue assholes…

"No, I'm just sitting up 'cause I was murdered in my sleep and now I'm a fuckin' zombie! Course I'm up!" I said irritably. I don't know why, but something about the guy just pissed me off.

"There was no need to bite my head off." Latios growled. "Anyway, now that you're up, here's breakfast." He chucked something blue at me, which I caught only because of the many times Jake had thrown eggs at me.

Again, I almost laughed when I thought of Jake committing attempted murder by way of eggs, but that was actually painful so I shut that train of thought off.

I felt Latios's eyes on me, and realized that he was probably reading my mind. 'Fuck off, before I tell your sister.' I heard Latios growl and look away. Heh, I love being me.

"Look, just eat your breakfast." He said, still not looking at me.

I looked down at the blue object in my hands and saw that it was a blue berry the size of a baseball.

"Okay, what the hell is this thing and will it poison me?" I said, eyeing the…thing apprehensively.

I heard Latios sigh. "That is an Oran Berry." He said, "I assure you, it will not poison you, as amusing as that would be. Although if you keep up the insolent attitude, I may just find the wrong berry."

We glared at each other. After about five minutes, we were interrupted by a red dragon Pokemon, who had no idea of the verbal war going on.

"G-Good morning, brother, Luke." She said, yawning, "What's for breakfa-" She then noticed me and Latios glaring at each other like we were trying to make holes in each other's head…Hey, that's an idea. If only I had brought my Swiss Army knife…

We broke our glaring contest to look at her, who was now giving us a glare that rivaled our own.

"G-Good morning Latias." Latios said, looking nervous, "Did you sleep well?"

"Nice try, brother." Latias said, still glaring at him, "Now, why are you treating Luke like that?"

Latios looked nervous, and I smirked. 'This is just too good.' I thought to myself. Damn bastard needed to be taught a lesson.

"Well, you see, he provoked me. I didn't do anything." Latios said. Man, he sounded like a three year old!

Latias then turned to me, with a glare still on her face. I gulped. "Is that true, Luke?" She said, dangerously calm. It was Latios's turn to smirk. I ignored him, although I made a mental note to annoy the shit outta him later.

"Umm, m-maybe?" I said, hoping that she wouldn't use DragonBreath or anything like that on me.

I was completely shell-shocked when Latias's face broke into a wide grin. She giggled at my expression, and said, "What, did you expect me to get mad at you? I know how brother is, so it's fine if you two argue." She got in close and whispered in my ear, "He can be a grouch sometimes, too."

I laughed and Latias giggled. Why did I say them as two different things you ask? Because Latias's laugh was high-pitched, and I DO NOT GIGGLE!

"I heard that, you know." Latios grumbles from his tree. "And Luke, you still haven't eaten your breakfast."

I looked down at the giant berry in my hands. I decided that if it did kill me, Latias would probably strangle Latios. I then took a small bite.

Okay, I'm not a food expert by any means, but right when I took that bite, I practically shoved the whole thing down my throat. That thing was gooooood.

Latios was smirking. "Any poison?" He asked. I then flipped him off.

Well, perhaps that wasn't my brightest idea, and that's really saying something. What happened was Latias did the same thing, and I thought that Latios was gonna explode. He roughly picked me up by my shirt and hissed, "What did I tell you about teaching my little sister bad habits, you little delinquent?!" He then threw me to the ground, and flew off angrily.

Latias looked confused and a bit angry at her brother's reaction. "What happened?" She asked.

I stood up and dusted myself off. "You know that finger thing that I just did?" I asked her.

"Yeah, you mean this?" She said, demonstrating.

I winced and said, "Okay, don't do that. And before you ask, it's because it means…uhh… a very bad word." I hoped that she would understand.

She surprised me yet again by smirking. Wait, Latias…smirking? What fresh hell is this?

"Actually, I do know what it means." She said, still smirking, "I just wanted to get back at brother for something." At my completely shocked look, she said, "What, did you actually think I'm sweet all the time? Sure, I'm pretty nice compared to other people, but I love to mess with people."

I somehow managed to recover and said, "Okay, so you only act sweet around Latios?" Did I even know her at all? Wait a sec, I've spent a grand total of about an hour with her. I'm lucky I even know her damn name.

Latias smiled and said, "No, not really. I just have a mischevious side, I guess."

"Ooookaaayyy then. Well, I should get goin'." I said, "I should probably go around and explore the city, just for something to do."

She looked excited and said, "Oooooh, can I come?! Please please please please please?! I can help you find your way around the city!" She stopped looking excited and gave me puppy-dog eyes.

I tried to look away, but it was too late. I'm no sap, but when girls give me the eyes or start crying, I have to give in. "Fine, fine." I said, looking back at her. I then realized a major flaw in this plan.

"Latias, you're a Legendary Pokemon." I said. When Latias looked at me like she didn't know what the problem was, I explained what should've been obvious. "I haven't been here for very long, but I still know that Legendaries are rare, and that people would probably do anything to catch one."

Latias just giggled. She then started to glow with a blue light, and I finally remembered a specific part of the movie. When the glow was gone, there was a girl who looked to be around my age standing where Latias was a few seconds ago. What was the girl's name again? Brittney? No. Brasha? No. Goddamnit, what was the name of Latias's friend in the movie? I decided to give up for now, but I had a feeling that I would be pissed with myself if I found out.

Latias beckoning motions with her hands and took off through the exit. I sighed and ran after her, already regretting this decision.

A/N: So, what did you think? I think it could've been better, but I want to try and get some chapters in for my other stories too before I leave tomorrow for Pennsylvania. There goes most of my Thanksgiving break, although it'll probably be fun. Well, that's about it. Triforcelord, out!
