One day, Dusk and Lightning were busy enjoying a nice swim in the pond.

Lightning started to splash Dusk with water and began to giggle.

"H-hey!" Dusk laughed as he splashed water back into her face.

Lightning went to splash Dusk again but as she did he disappeared under the water.

"Dusk, where'd you go?" she asked, looking around worried.

Dusk grabs her foot as he drags her underwater, both of them playfully wrestling under water as he kissed her underwater.

Lightning started to giggle, but it turned out to be a gurgle in the water.

Dusk kisses her deeply giving her some of his air to breathe.

Lightning could finally breathe again from the laughter under the water.

Dusk felt happy but at the same time wishes that she would kiss him back.

Lightning swam towards Dusk and kissed him back on the cheek and he began to blush a bit.

His face flared and his heart sung as she kissed him.  Dusk went to kiss her back.

Lightning went up to the surface to take a breath and swam towards the shore as she began to shake the water out of her fur.

Dusk soon follow her and shake his fur out with water, getting her soaked again.

As Dusk finished shaking the water droplets out of his fur, his fluffy beige fur puffed out as he glanced towards her.

Lightning shook the water off her again and looked at Dusk with his beige pelt on his neck puffed up and began to giggle.

"Ha-ha what's so funny?" he asked her.

"Your fur has puffed up, it's so cute" she smiled.

Dusk looks down at his fur puffed out like a big fur ball. "Gah!" he cried as he tries putting it back down.

Though without the anatomy of his forepaws worked, it proved to be difficult.

Lightning began to giggle more. They walked towards a tree, where their new Espeon friend, Amethyst was sitting in the shade. "Hey Amethyst" Lightning replied.

"Oh hello guys" she replied standing up.

"Hey Amethyst, how are you doing today? Dusk asked cheerfully.

"Great" she replied happily.

"Hey everyone in the forest is talking about you guys. You are famous heroes" Amethyst replied.

"Well I don't think we're that heroic" Lightning replied.

"Ha-ha same." Dusk answered.  "We only did what was necessary to save our home.  Besides it was really Chase and Electra who summoned Xerneas.  Lightning and I were already turned to stone".

"Yeah, they are the true heroines of the forest" Lightning replied.

"Oh come on, you still tried to help" Amethyst replied, her pinkish gem on her forehead glowing in the sunlight.

Dusk chuckled at the statement, "well thanks anyways Amethyst.  Hey if I may ask, where were you during that moment when Yvertal was released?"

"Well I was almost turned to stone, but Infernape told me to come with him if he wanted Yvertal to spare my life; so I decided to go with him I didn't realize it was some kind of vengeance if he failed to conquer the whole world" she replied.

"Oh...that's why we saw you inside his lair when Drowzee took over your body" Dusk replied.

"Yeah" she said, feeling guilty for trusting him.

"No worries Amethyst!  It's all in the past now" Dusk assured her.

"Yeah, you're in our side now" Lightning replied.

Amethyst smiled at both of them.  "Thank you..." she beamed at them.

"Your welcome" they replied to her.

They continued conversing amongst each other happily, though Amethyst was hiding the pit in her heart as she looks at Lightning and Dusk together.  She yearned for a partner, a Pokémon she could have at her aide for a lifetime.

"Oh you guys are perfect for each other. I hope I find someone that looks perfect for me?" she spoke hopefully.

"Don't worry Amethyst," Dusk assured her.  "Someone will come into your life. Just trust fate.  After all, it was fate that brought Lightning and me together" he told Amethyst as he nuzzled Lightning.

"Your right, I'll find him soon enough, I can feel it" she replied.

They both smiled at her.

She smiled back.

"INCOMING!!" They heard above them.

"Huh!?" They looked up and ran out of the way, before Lightning could fully see the creature.

Soon enough a yellow fur ball lands where they were once resting.... face first.  "Ow...." Sparks cried.

"Sparks!! Are you alright? What happened?" Lightning asked him confused.

"H-hi Lightning...." he said dazed.  "Why are there 3 of you...?"  Dusk came towards Sparks. "Sparks why were you flying through the air?"

Um? There's not 3 of me? What happened?" Lightning asked as well.

"I told you that was a stupid idea!" They heard a female voice behind them.  "Relax Electra I'm sure Sparks is fine." A male voice replied "look see? There he is".

"What did you guys do?" Lightning asked them confused.

"I made a slingshot on the mountainside with vines" Chase answered.  "You guys want to try?"

"No... No... No... No!" She yelled repeatedly. "That is dangerous, you could have severely injured him" Lightning replied helping Sparks up.

"We should go up there and put it down before they think about doing this again" she whispered to Dusk.

"I agree" he whispered back "then again....it wouldn't hurt to at least try it once right?"

"Um...No" Lightning spoke again.  "Come on we should put it down" she replied.

"Alright let's go" Dusk replied as they all went up the mountain.

They found the slingshot and they worked together to put it down, it took a few minutes to fully take it down.

"Huh...You always make up these ideas like you're still a Pichu, Chase" Lightning replied.

"Well at least that's taken care of" Dusk said.  "Aw man, I didn't even get a chance to try it" Chase whined.

They all face palmed themselves in frustration.

"You are such an angrymon, Chase" Lightning replied.

"Oh well," Chase said "since we're all here what do you guys want to do?"

"Um..." Lightning replied, "better not be anything stupid" she whispered to herself.

"Well I am feeling kind of hungry" Sparks replied.  At that moment all of their stomachs grumbled.

"Yeah, we should go look for some berries" she responded to him.

Amethyst nodded.  "I know a place where a fresh patch just grew," she replied.

"Great, lead the way" Dusk replied and they all followed Amethyst to the fresh patch of berries.

Meanwhile far away from them Infernape, Drowzee, and Primeape were busy scaling the mountains in search for Mewtwo.

"Where is Mewtwo?"  Primeape asked looking in a cave.

"I don't know but we got to find it, so we can find a way to stop those annoying Pokémon and take over the world" Infernape replied.

"Are you sure he would be here Inferno?" Drowzee asked.  "The world hasn't seen Mewtwo since he vanished years ago".

"I don't know but I'm sure it will be in some cave here" Inferno the Infernape replied.

Primeape saw a cave at the peak of a mountain. "What about in there?" He asked.

"Hm... It could be a possibility that he is in there, Abrafo" Inferno replied.

"Let's check it out" replied Abrafo the Primape.

"Yeah" Inferno replied.

They all climb up the mountain.

They went inside the cave.

" it's kind of dark in here" Sigmund the Drowzee said.

"Yeah, I hope he's insi-" Inferno hit the wall of the cave and yowled in pain.

"WHO GOES THERE!!" a voice echoed in the cave.

They all freeze in place by the voice.

"Who was that!?" Abrafo the Primape asked.

"GO AWAY!!" the voice yelled firing a huge aura sphere at them, but they dodged the attack.

Inferno looked into the shadows to see who through the aura sphere.

"Why have you come here?!" the voice spoke calmer.

"Are you the one known as Mewtwo?" Inferno asks.

"Have you heard of me?" Mewtwo asked standing up and walking toward them.

"Why do you want to see me?" he replied.

"We wish to seek your assistance" inferno replied.

"You want MY assistance?!" he asked confused.

"Is this a trick?! DID HUMANS BRING YOU HERE TO MAKE ME A SLAVE AGAIN!!" he yelled in frustration.

Sigmund and Abrafo felt frightened.  "No," replied Inferno.  "We only seek your assistance in destroying this pathetic world.

"Hm... I do want to destroy all humans and all the Pokémon that obey them...But I like to work alone" Mewtwo replied, "GO AWAY!!!"he yelled.

"Obey us, or we'll have to do it the hard way!" Inferno yelled.

"YOU DARE CHALLENGE MY AUTHORITY!?"Mewtwo yelled.

"YES, I DO!!" Inferno yelled and used poison jab on Mewtwo, but he dodged it and used aura sphere on him.

"AHHHH!!" he squealed in pain. "You are going to pay for that!" he shouted back using flamethrower, but Mewtwo dodged the attack and used psychic. They all couldn't move anymore. Mewtwo threw them out of the cave and they fell on the ground injured.

"Well that went well..." Abrafo commented.

"Uhhh...Why didn't you try to hypnotize Mewtwo, Sigmund!" Inferno yelled at Sigmund.

"I-I tried to but his mind was so strong a-and seeing you get swiftly beaten like that I panicked!" Sigmund replied.

"You should have tried harder!" Inferno yelled, just before he fell to the ground weak and helpless.

"I'm sorry, Inferno" Sigmund replied.

"We g-got to f-find a way t-to get Mewtwo" Inferno tried to say.

"Maybe we should start training Sigmund and make his hypnosis stronger" Abrafo replied.

"Yeah, we could make our own Pokémon army" Sigmund replied.

"Hmm...that's not a bad idea.  And I know just the perfect Pokémon too" Inferno said.

"Who?" Abrafo and Sigmund asked.

Inferno chuckled lowly "the Pikachu's pesky boyfriend .... Dusk...."

"What?!" they gasped.

"How are we going to find him?" Abrafo asked.

"Simple, we just pay a visit to the Pikachu village for a bit" he responded.

"Oh" they replied.

"Let's go" he ordered.

They headed to the Pikachu village.

"Now what do we do?" Asked Abrafo.  "We wait" inferno replied as they haven't returned to the village from their outing together.

"There they are" Amethyst replied rushing to a bush.

They all picked a couple of the fresh Rawst berries and they ate some berries.

After they finished they walked towards the Pikachu village after their berry break and they brought a couple fresh Rawst berries with them back to the village, when Lightning smelled a familiar scent and she stopped in her tracks and stared at the way back to the Pikachu village ears drooping and worried.

Dusk noticed her worried expression.  " what's wrong Lightning?" he asked her.

"I smell an Infernape, Primeape, and Drowzee scent and they are the ones we know" Lightning replied to him worried and frightened.

Dusk sniffs the air and keep up their scent too.  "I smell them too...what are they doing here?"

"I don't know, but it probably isn't good" Lightning replied.

" why don't we go somewhere else for now." Amethyst suggested.

"Yeah, but what about the other Pikachus?" Lightning asked Amethyst.

" they should be fine," Amethyst assured "I don't bitter they are their main target"

"Ok" Lightning replied to her.

They leave the village.

"So where are we going Amethyst?" Lightning asked.

"Just for a quick walk" she replied.

"Ok" she replied.

They all decided to take a walk in a different part of the forest.

"I hope everything is alright" Lightning said.

"I'm sure that their doing okay" Dusk says to her.

"Ok" Lightning replied.

"So what do you guys wanna do?" Sparks asked.

Back at the Pikachu village, Inferno, Abrafo and Sigmund were still waiting for them.

"Uhhh! When are they coming?!" Abrafo yelled impatiently.

"Patience Abrafo...they will come later" inferno tells him.

"Huh..." he sighed.

They continued to walk for a few hours before returning.

They finally returned to the forest at dusk.

Lightning trembled in fear still smelling the scent still, but she didn't see them anywhere.

"They must have left and left their scent here" she thought.

Dusk yawned as they approached the village.  " I guess we should just call it a night then" he told everyone. 

"Yeah" they all replied.

"Do you have a place to sleep Amethyst?" Dusk asked

"No, not exactly, unless I can sleep here in the Pikachu village with you" she said.

Dusk glanced over to Lightning. "There should be room under the tree right?

"Yeah, there should be room for one more" Lightning replied.

"You can sleep with us Amethyst" Dusk told her smiling.

"Great" she replied and smiled back.

They all got settled in under the tree.

That night, Inferno walked out of the bushes and tiptoed and walked through all the sleeping Pikachus scattered on the ground until he approached them.

Lightning and Dusk lay fast asleep snuggled in each other's arms as Amethyst lay curled up next to them.

Infernape reached towards Dusk and he flinched and he backed up as he moved closer to Lightning fast asleep.

Inferno beckoned Sigmund to help him out.

Sigmund walked towards him and began to help Infernape.

Infernape grabbed Dusk and he woke up. Sigmund began to do his hypnosis on Dusk before he could cry out for help.

"You will help us make our army" Sigmund replied to Dusk.

Dusk tried to fight the trance but he fell under his hypnotic spell as his mind slowly drifted into darkness.  His eyes closed and opened revealing dull brown pupil less eyes.  "I will help you make your army" he said monotonously.

"Good" they replied and they went back to the lair.

Abrafo stopped them.  "Wait why don't we bring those two as well?" He said as he points at Lightning and Amethyst.

"Hm... Maybe we should just take Lightning" Inferno replied.

"Ok" Abrafo replied, picking her up.

Lightning woke up but she got stuck in Sigmund's trance, and she began to obey them once again. "We will make your army grow, master" she replied.

"Perfect" inferno cheered.  " now come you two we have work to do"

"Yes master" they said and they followed them.

"Oh and Sigmund?  Put Dusk and Lightning under a deeper trance when we get back to the lair. I don't want either of them to do a resisting turn to the hypnosis" Inferno told him.

"Yes sir" Sigmund said.

They make it back into the lair.

Sigmund put them in a deeper trance to keep them from escaping it.

"No.....must.... not.... slip....int-......u-....cs-........-.........****" were Dusk's last thought before his mind went completely blank.

"No... I got...to...fight...it...I... can't get...into...the...trance" were Lightning's last words in her mind before she was completely controlled by Sigmund again.

Their bodies simply stared blankly at Sigmund "the deal is done sir.  They are now fully under our control".

"Good" Inferno replied.

Abrafo continued eyeing Lightning's body.

"Hello Abrafo" she replied.

"Hello Lightning" he replied back walking towards her.

"Should we head to bed then?" Sigmund asked.

"Yes master" Lightning replied.

"You can come sleep with me Lightning" Abrafo grinned.

"Yes master I will sleep with you tonight" she responded.

Abrafo grinned and draped his arm over her shoulder as he walked her to his room.  Dusk simply remained still waiting for an order.

"Dusk, go into the secret room and rest in there tonight, we will start making our army tomorrow" Inferno ordered.

"Yes master" Dusk answered and walked into the secret room to rest.

"Hahahahahahaha!!!" Inferno laughed.

The next morning, Amethyst woke up and didn't see Lightning or Dusk anywhere. "Where'd they go?" she asked herself.

"Lightning! Dusk!" she cried out looking all over the Pikachu village for them. She sniffed their scents under the tree where they were resting last night and smelt a bit of Inferno, Abrafo, and Sigmund's scent as well. "Huh! Oh no!" she gasped and she began to follow the scent.

She followed the scent through the forest into the mountains.

She stopped next to the cave to the lair. "Oh no, they better not be in there" she said to herself worriedly.

She approached the cave really carefully.

She took a deep breath and walked deeper and deeper into the cave very careful not to make much noise to get caught and get in trouble.

She managed to make it inside the lair undetected.

"Where could they be..." Amethyst thought.

Lightning awoke and smelt a familiar scent.

Dusk woke up as well smelling a familiar scent.

"Hmm...That smells like...Amethyst" Lightning realized sparks flowing out of her cheeks.

"Amethyst is here..." Dusk growled.

"Time for an electrifying battle!" Lightning yelled running out of Primeape's room.

Dusk leaves the room and enter the main room where Amethyst resides.

They looked at her together and began to start a battle with her.

"Hello Amethyst" Lightning replied revealing herself to her.

"Lightning! There you are. Let's go home" Amethyst said.

"What! I'm not going home with you; I belong here with my master" she replied to her.

"What oh no you are being hypnotized again" she realized shocked.

"We're not going anywhere with you Amethyst" Lightning said "soon we will help Inferno grow his army.

"No! Snap out of it! Don't listen to Sigmund, you do not belong in the dark side!" Amethyst yelled.

Dusk used shadow ball on Amethyst hitting her with a critical hit.

Lightning used electro ball hitting her hard. "You g-got to stop!" she yelled.

Dusk charged at her and bite her leg.

"Ahhhh!" she squealed in pain. "get off me!!" she yelled using psychic and keeping Dusk's body still.

"Nggggh!" he struggled to move and tried charging shadow ball.

Amethyst made her psychic attack get tighter and squeezed Dusk and threw him on the ground hard.

"You need to stop Dusk!" she yelled approaching him.

"Don't forget-" Lightning started looking down. "-About me!" she finished, looking at Amethyst and used thunderbolt on her.

"Ahhh!" she screamed.

Amethyst became paralyzed.

"Ahhh!!" she screamed more, her body locked in place, now paralyzed. "Hahahahaha! You will never defeat us" Lightning laughed. Dusk was freed from the psychic and fired shadow ball at her.

She dodged the attack and used psybeam on Dusk.

He staggers back.

"Uhh!" Lightning gritted her teeth using thunder shock, but she dodged and used psybeam once more hitting her.

Dusk got up once more and charged at her with quick attack.

She used psybeam to encounter quick attack and he was hit by a few beams.

He lost his balance and slid across the floor.

Dusk tried to get back up but couldn't. "Hm... So now it's you and me" Lightning replied walking towards Dusk and looking at Amethyst.

Lightning used thunderbolt and shocked her.

"Ahhh!" she screamed in pain.

She got back up and used psybeam and hit her, but she got back up and used electro ball.

She dodged the attack and used psychic keeping her locked in place, but before she got it tighter Lightning used thunderbolt and she was shocked. Lightning tried to use it again, but she made it tighter so she couldn't use the attack again.

She threw her at the wall hitting it hard on her back.

Amethyst breathed heavily from the blows she had taken. Her frail body not meant to take so much punishment.

"Uhhh!" Lightning groaned in frustration using quick attackthen iron tail hitting her. "Ahhh!" she screamed again. She shook it off and used psybeam, but Lightning dodged it and used electro ball. She dodged the attack again and used psybeam and hit her.

Lightning tried to get back up, but couldn't. "Lightning, you have to stop, now" Amethyst responded to her walking towards her. "No! I will n-never give u-up" Lightning replied weakly trying to get back up but couldn't do it.

"What is going on here!!" Inferno yelled. "Lightning!"  Abrafo yelled looking for her, but realized she was out of the room. Sigmund even woke up to see what was going on.

Amethyst stared at Inferno and gasped before glaring at him "let Dusk and Lightning free!! Now!"

"Never! They are mine now!" Inferno yelled looking at her.

"Sigmund take care of her!" he ordered.

"I would love to, sir" he replied. He began to dance.

"You will forget about ever meeting Dusk and Lightning and leave this place" he ordered.

She began to get stuck in his trance and she forgot all the memories she had of Lightning and Dusk and left them in the cave.

Amethyst continued to trott out of the cave her eyes a dulled purple as she was put under the hypnotic spell.

"Perfect now we can continue our plan to building our army" inferno yelled, but first.  We must heal Dusk and Lightning.  "Come along you two".
