The Reuniting: The Untold Story of Giratina

-:[Chapter One]:-

It had been twelve years since my dad went missing. Rumor has it that there was a trainer who put an end to his ideals, put an end to his dream. Day by day the world was slowly becoming more imbalanced. Day by day time was slowing down and speeding up at unpredictable intervals. Space was becoming less and less stable; to the point where you couldn’t be sure of anywhere you took a step. Sinnoh was breaking down, and all because the shadowy Pokemon that kept the Distortion World in check had been captured.

The Distortion World and Sinnoh were parallels; one could not exist without the other. But without the shadowy Pokemon to look after and care for the Distortion World, it was slowly disappearing, fading away. It was only a matter of time before the Distortion World became obsolete, and Sinnoh breaking down.

This was all happening because Dad got a little too greedy with his idea of a perfect world. What he wanted to do was harness the power of the legendary Pokemon Dialga and Palkia. Using their powers of time and space, he would create a world without spirit. From what Mom told me, Dad used to be a good guy, but Grandma and Grandpa never thought he was good enough. The last straw was when I was born, and Grandma and Grandpa called me a disgrace.

I’ve never met Dad, aside from when I was born. He left to pursue his dream of an emotionless world shortly after I was introduced to this world. Mom was sad to see him leave, but there was a deeper level of understanding between the two of them which allowed her to be okay on her own. I wanted to know my Dad. I wanted to be Daddy’s little girl. But I never got the chance, like other girls in Sunyshore did. They all had normal dads.

I picked up the photo of Dad off of my bedside table and looked at it. The picture of him was fifteen years outdated, but it is the only memory I have of what he looks like. His icy blue hair was spiked at the top, and he was wearing a gray and black jacket that had a golden letter “G” on the top corner. He had a cold, emotionless expression on his face. I was disrupted from my thoughts when Mom called me.

“Stella honey, it’s time for dinner,” she called.

“Coming,” I groggily shouted back.

My mom had a good job working at Hotel Grand Lake, so her income was enough to support the two of us. We had a house that was on the smaller side, but it was still spacious enough for Mom and me.

“Thinking about Dad again, were you?” asked Mom.

“Yep,” I started. “I just want to meet him so badly.”

“I know you do honey, and I want to see him again too, but that’s a luxury not available to us right now,” she told me with a reassuring tone. After a little but more eating, an idea formed in my head.

“Maybe we can see him Mom!” I exclaimed.

“How so honey?” she questioned.

“If I were to find the trainer who has Giratina in their possession, then find an entrance to the Distortion World, I could find Dad!” I explained excitedly.
“Honey, that’s highly unlikely. No one knows where the trainer who captured Giratina is,” mom told me.

“Hmm…” I pondered what she had said, and it was true, no one knew where the trainer who captured Giratina was. But then something occurred to me. “The trainer who captured Giratina later became the Champion right? Maybe Cynthia would have some information about him?”

Mom thought that over. It seemed like she couldn’t come with an argument against my idea.

“Great! I’ll head to Celestic Town tomorrow then. I know that is where Cynthia’s family lives,” I exclaimed.

“Tomorrow?! Isn’t that a little soon?” asked Mom.

“It’s not like I have anything else on my schedule,” I shot back.

Again, it seemed like I had caught my mom without a rebuttal. When I finished my dinner, I ran up to my room with excitement, itching to pack for tomorrow’s journey. I grabbed the Pokeball that sat upon my desk and opened it. My Roserade popped out, and I told her of the good news. She let out a chant of excitement; it wasn’t very often that Roserade got to leave her Pokeball, but I decided that she would be accompanying me outside of her Pokeball on my journey. Just to be safe, I grabbed the remaining two Pokeballs off my desk and packed them in my mag. One Pokeball contained Sneasel while the other contained Vulpix.

That night, I could barely sleep. It would be my first time leaving Sunyshore in a long time, and I was just itching to get going. I spent the whole night dreaming about the journey, what I would see, who I would meet. It was only to Celestic town, but for me, this was just the first step to an even bigger adventure. In the end though, everything was for the ultimate goal of seeing Dad.

The next morning, I grabbed my previously packed bag, gave Mom a kiss on the cheek, and left for Celestic Town.
