14 Mysterious Deaths In Devenor Forest 2/2 (1/2)

********** Lizzy's Perspective **********

Tessa: *nervously* No! What do you mean talked? You mean you talked to it, right?

Tom and Evan seem to let Tessa do the nervous talking now that Lizzy dropped that bomb.

in the meantime Susi thinks:

~ I don't get why he seems to be that interesting... or what it is to get so excited about. The Pokémon Lizzy talks about can't even talk Pokémon. I doubt it can even talk to its fellow... well what kind of Pokémon was he anyway?

”~Ok wasn't I expressing myself clearly enough?~”

”~Alright, let's try it again~”

”No! I mean I talked to it and it answered me in our language! It's really smart! I would even go so far to think it's legendary! I asked it some questions and it even knew about Arceus and it's creations Dialga and Palkia!”

Tessa can't believe what she is hearing right at this moment and shows it with a loud: ”.... what?”

Evan and Tom seem to be dumbstruck as well. Just standing there, leaving Lizzy to deal with an awkward silence.

Tom: How? I mean isn't it dangerous? How were you able to talk to it?

Lizzy now grabbing her chin in thought staring into the sky.

”Well... uh... I was chasing Susi again after I found her I turns out that she met him and he ran off before I arrived. I guessed that she wanted to show me something so I told her she could follow it slowly with me together but at that point, she already ran away again. I tried catching her again but instead ran into the Pokémon that she was so excited about. At least that's what I thought.

But it wasn't that important to me what I wanted to know was where my Susi went. I looked around and not a second later it's pointed me in a direction. I didn't really get what he was getting at.

Quietly he told me that she ran off in that direction. I didn't realize that it talked in all my hastiness. But it hit me a few seconds after I started running.

And that's how I found out.”

I start to check how they react to what I just said to them and not even a second later...

”And!? Go on please this could be really important for our mission and the guys that might be in danger!”

Evan shoots out his reaction, not quite the reaction I expected but a reaction nonetheless.

”Eh? Uh. Well.

It looked angry and when it continued it said that it didn't want to deal with us and that it had more important matters to attend too. Also, it said that it would deal with Susi if I didn't get her of his Tail.

*Susi twitches in surprise after hearing her name in that context fulling understand what Lizzy just said*

It said it came from another dimension after that it talked about Dialga and Palkia with me, only to cut the conversation short and saying that it had to get stronger.”

Evan, Tessa, and Tom look at each other in confusion. A Pokémon saying something is already strange enough, but it mentioning that it had to get stronger is even weirder why should it be so determined? And especially the part about being from another dimension what's up with that?

Tom turns to me again and asks: ”Did it say why it wanted to get stronger? Any reason?”

I scratch my head thinking about what the Pokémon told me: ”Well... I was asking it if it was a legendary Pokémon because I had never seen a Pokémon like it before, also it could talk and knew about Dialga, Palkia and even Arceus.

But it seemed too small and weak for that so I asked it personally.”

*I take some deep breaths*

Tessa cuts into the conversation: ”And?! What did it say? You can't take a break after saying something like that!”

”Well it seemed angry, but it answered with something along the lines of 'Did you think Dialga and Palkia popped out of their eggs being 5 Meters tall?'” (Lizzy)

„Well... huh. That's a good point isn't it?”, Tessa asks and scratches her head.

”Did they even hatch out of eggs? I thought Arceus created them, did he create them as adults?” Evan asks, he seems to be having more good-parent thoughts, not really thinking about the important Parts.

Tom now joins the Thought-Factory of his colleagues: ” So basically, we could be after a legendary Pokémon or just some highly Intelligent evil Pokémon. -”

”Or both” Tessa cuts into Toms thought

”Or both which would make it even scarier. Intelligent and evil are bad enough, adding the power of a legendary could be catastrophic, our region never had anything to do with legendaries or pseudo-legendaries. We just don't know how to deal with one.” - Tom having some worried thoughts.

Tessa and Tom both swallowing.

They know if times are dangerous or difficult the region will need their help. Arenas do exist in this region just like a Pokémon League, but even though they have been existent longer than in Alola, they are weaker compared to other regions. Many of the strong trainers rush through this region just to clear it on their way to become a Pokémon Master and continue training in the other regions, that's why not many strong Trainers stay in Noaho. That's probably why not so many people heard about this region.

Tom, Tessa, and Evan watch each other trying to figure out what to do. That when Tessa ends the quiet: ”First we should probably tell Claudia about it. We can figure out what to do with the others.”

Evan and Tom just agree by nodding.

I don't know how to react to that, .... but I have to do something! : ”How about you guys talk to it when you find him. If he's smart he probably has a Reason, right?”

Tom and the Others turn back towards me and Tom replies in a casual tone: ”Well, of course, that's how we would do it, are you sure it won't attack Humans?”

”Well he didn't attack me, right? And if he wants to get stronger he wouldn't gain anything from defeating Humans right?”

That's all I can think of if that doesn't convince them I don't know what will.

Tom scratches his head: ”It seems we have been way to excited about this whole thing, that does indeed make sense.”

Evan continues: ”Talking or not we should tell the Team to not battle it in any situation.”

*All of them look at Evan with a questioning face*

”Why are you looking at me? It seems to have quite the temper. It got angry after being called angry and small after all. Taking out your Pokémon might be triggering him to use them to get stronger right?”

Tom: ”Well it does make sense even if it doesn't have to be true. Let's just tell them to not react hostile and talk calmly like we do with all other friendly Pokémon.”

”Alright I will do that then, give me a second

Guys.” - Tessa says turns

Tessa steps a few meters back to not disturb the conversation in case it continues and starts talking into her Walkie Talkie.

- ”Claudia? It's me, Tessa, we got Intel about the Killer-Pokémon, from one of the Farmers Children around here.”

Claudia seems to respond but from where I stand I cannot understand much.
