Two Worlds, One Crisis [Luna x Aura]

Lunaura finally regained consciousness and looks around. She appears to be in a Pokémon-made labratory, but what surprises her the most is the fact the door of the prison room she's in is open! Is this a trap? She slowly steps out through the door, but nothing happens. Hoping that this could be her chance, Lunaura quickly runs out of the area as fast as she could.

Once Lunaura left, the ditto from before appears out of hiding after transforming back from the cell door while having a strange device on its head. "Sir, are you sure it's alright for her to escape so easily after putting our efforts into catching her? And besides, we haven't finished scanning her mind about the real target we're looking for," it asks.

"Yes. After all, the memory scan is a success. She is without a doubt one of the few we had taken from the human world. She may not remember now, but in a few weeks, Lunaura Eclipse will start to have memories flashing at her before she came to this world. And she'll, without a doubt, come looking back here for answers. And then, we can take that chance. In the mean time, we'll continue to search for the strongest Pokémon with the power to transfer us to the real world. It's time we start things off with this for now," a voice said through the device.

"Very well then. The Lopun- I mean, human has escaped then. I shall return to the meeting area," it says and moves out.

Lunaura finally gets out of the area of a cave. To her surprise, it's close to the same town she left her present for Kuro. She arrives back and to her relief, the equipment is finally finished and holds Kuro's present, the Lucarionite. She walks out while holding it and is unaware that Kuro can see what she's holding. She puts it in her bag and heads back to the forest of destruction.

 

Natasha and Kichiro were waiting for Lunaura to return for the past few days. Soon, They see her coming and smiles. Lunaura walks to them and pats their heads. "Mom, you're back! Where have you been?" Kichiro asks with relief, but also worry.

"I got into a little trouble... but luckily for me, I managed to escape. So, I am fine now," Lunaura replies to Kichiro.

"Did you get the item you were looking for?" Natasha asks.

Lunaura nods as she takes out the Lucarionite and shows it to Kichiro and Natasha. "This is a Lucarionite. It is said to help a Lucario mega evolve," she says to the kids.

"So, Dad can now mega evolve?" Kichiro asks with a big smile

Lunaura nods. "This will be a present for your father from all of us," she says to Kichiro and Natasha. Natasha and Kichiro smiles and hugs Lunaura who in return, hugged back. They feel Lunaura release them. "Now, I need to report that I have returned. I'll see you two in a bit," she says to her children as she walks off.

 

Lunaura had already informed the others on her return and is finishing up on the wrapping for the metal band holding the Lucarionite using some huge leaves she took from a tree with Hikaru, Natasha, and Kichiro. She then notices something bright outside; so, she quickly walks out to see what's going on. To her relief, it's only Kuro, returning from his world. She smiles as she shows Natasha the wrapped present. "Go say hello to your father," she says to Natasha.

Natasha nods with a smile as she takes the present and runs to Kuro. "Hi Dad!" she says to Kuro with excitement. She then hands Kuro the present. "Marry Chrissymas," she added while having a hard time remembering the holiday... Or event. She knows that Lunaura taught it to her and the others, but it's a little hard to pronounce it.

Lunaura smiles a tiny bit, but doesn't show it at Natasha's little error. But she's not complaining since she tried. She looks to Kuro with Kichiro and Hikaru.

 

Lunaura sees the Lucarionite and flinches. Kichiro did the same and folds his ears back. He then looks to Lunaura. "Mom, what are we going to do about Dad's present now?" He asks.

Lunaura sighs as she looks down while rubbing her head due to stress. She can't go look for another present for Kuro now. He's already here! She takes in another sigh. "It is what it is..." She says to Kichiro.

"I'm scared..."

Lunaura froze at the sudden voice. She looks up and around for the voice. Kichiro seems to notice Lunaura's strange behavior. "Are you okay Mom?" He asks with worry.

Lunaura stops and looks to Kichiro with a look of panic. She then shows a calm look since she's trying to calm herself down. "I'm fine Kichiro... Just still tired from a few days ago," she replies. She really must be to feel this stressed out. She then looks to Kichiro, and Hikaru. "Why don't you two go with your sister to meet your father at the tree in the middle of the forest. I'll catch up in a bit," she says to Kichiro.

Kichiro watches Lunaura a bit, but nods uneasily. He then walks off with Hikaru and Natasha to the middle of the forest.

 

Kichiro finally arrives with Natasha and Hikaru as Natasha looks at the tree with a surprised look with Hikaru. Kichiro looks as well and is surprised to see the tree as well. He thinks Lunaura might be surprised as well. He looks back and wonders if Lunaura is on her way.

Lunaura continues to pace around in the cave as she replays the same voice in her head that she thought she heard a little bit ago. Was it real? After all, it felt pretty real to her. It's almost like it once... happened to her... Lunaura shakes her head. Of course stuff like that had happened to her. She once lived in a destroyed future where she was all alone and scared. And now, it's time she puts the past behind her!

"Mommy, I'm scared..."

Lunaura flinches again with more shock! That's something she never said... or is it?... But then, Lunaura froze as she suddenly looks up and-

*"Sir, we have successfully managed to capture three humans from the human world!" shouted a voice. Lunaura looks around at her surroundings and notices she's trapped in a capsule with two humans... wait! These humans look extremely familiar! They're-

"What's going on around here?!! Who are you-" the man shouted but stops and has a look of shock as he sees the kidnappers. "Wh-what are you?!" he says as he stays close and in front of her and an adult female human.

Lunaura looks around and has this nerve to see what's going on. So, she tries to get a look of their kidnappers as well, but she suddenly gets shielded by a woman as the woman gently pets her head to calm her. "Lunaura, sweety, please stay close to me and your daddy! This will be over soon," she hears the woman say.

Lunaura tries to see what's going on. But instead, she turns to the woman. "Mommy, I'm scared..." she suddenly feels herself say. Lunaura looks shocked as she tries to move out of the woman's arms, but sees her body not responding to her commands!

"I know sweety! But try to be brave for me okay?" the woman asks. She hugs Lunaura a bit tighter as she watches the figures that Lunaura can not see.

"Alright then. Begin the experiment by sending them to a different part of this world," said a different voice she didn't recognize. She then feels herself shivering. And soon-"*

"Mistress Lunaura!"

"NO!!!" Lunaura shouts as she uses ice punch at the direction where she heard the other voice. She feels someone catching her fist and looks to see who. It was Bisharp.

"Mistress Lunaura, are you alright?" the Bisharp asks as he sees Lunaura's behavior.

Lunaura quickly moved her fist away from Bisharp and turns away. "Yes... I'm fine... sorry for striking at you..." she mumbled. She starts to calm herself down and looks to Bisharp. "Is there something you need?" she asks calmly.

Bisharp nodded. "Your children had walked off with Kuro to the middle of the forest. I thought I should let you know about that," he replies.

Lunaura nods. "Alright, I'll go to them," she says to Bisharp. Before she could let Bisharp ask anymore questions, she quickly walks off to the middle of the forest.

 

Kichiro frowns again. "Mom said she's going to catch up later. She seemed to be-

"I'm here everyone," Lunaura says to the group as she walked in and accidentally interrupted Kichiro. Lunaura then sees the tree and looks surprised at it's sudden changed appearance.

Natasha got close to one of the sphere like ornaments after she placed the present down and looks at the ornament with confusion. "Hey Dad, what are these?" she asks Kuro as she taps on the ornament.

Kichiro looks back to Lunaura to see her shaking her head a bit when no one is looking. But she sees him and nods to show he's alright. Kichiro sighed quietly and watches Kuro and Natasha.

 

Everyone did as they are told. They all went to the tree and picked up the box with their name. They all seemed surprised on how Kuro's rules had worked for them! Sakura has a strange black belt that goes around her head. Flare has received a power band and it can help increase his attacks. Bisharp got the same thing, but it's in a black and gray color instead of red and yellow. Mightyena obtained a some food/berries of his favorite flavor. Salamance now has a dragon fang that can help his attack power. Chansey has received a normal looking scarf, but feels warm enough to help her go through the winter. And finally, Machamp has obtained a band that can fit well on his head.

Finally, it's Lunaura and the children's turn as they walked up to Kuro.

 

Lunaura unwraps her present and sees the golden heart locket. She looks at it with a surprised look. She then touches it and clicks something on it. She sees the locket open shows a picture of Kuro in his human form. She stares at the locket for a bit and closes the picture and looks Kuro with a big smile and hugs Kuro. "Thank you Kuro," she says to him. She then releases him so she can hand Kuro his present. "And now it's your turn," she says to Kuro with a smile. She hopes Kuro would like the Lucarionite even though he has one.

 

Lunaura looks surprised and scratches her head a little in confusion. She clearly doesn't remember switching around items that quickly. She'll have to ask about it later so everyone can enjoy the day for now. She watches Kuro wear his glasses and then looks at the locket. She could of sworn that she's seen an item like this before.

"What's that Mommy?"

Lunaura flinches at the voice again.

"Well sweety, it's a locket. Your father gave it to me for Christmas. This special necklace can hold a picture or two for the people you love."

"Like how Daddy and I love you, Mommy?"

"Yes dear. And that's why I have a picture of you and your father, Lunaura."

Lunaura clenches her fist tightly to the ground. These memories... What in the world is going on?! These memories are extremely new to her; and yet, these take place when she was really young... when her parents were still alive. But why are they coming to her now, out of all time?! She sighs a little and shakes her head as she feel beads of sweat on her head. She quickly wipes them off and starts trying to put the locket on.

 

Lunaura flinches and blushes as she feels Kuro help put the locket on her, but she's still distracted by the sudden fragment of memories she recently had. Suddenly, she sees Kuro looking at her with his arms crossed. When she hears his question, she snaps out of her thoughts. "It's nothing important. They're just fragment of memories and I was lost in thought with them," she answered honestly. She smiles a bit and has her hand to Kuro's shoulder. "It has notching to do with you Kuro really," she says to him.
