Kut's POV.

I floated along with the shiny Rotom and my lover until I began to see a giant mountain beyond the trees.

"Alright, we have to either cut through Eterna City or go around. Hm hopefully Eterna is safe after last time." Red mumbled.

"What do you mean by last time?" I asked him.

"Well you see I first met Control after he captured me and my friends in Eterna City. I'm not sure if it's safe now or if Arcadia took it over." Red explained.

"I guess we will just have to find out, however I will remain on guard." I concluded, scanning the area. Eventually we reached the end of the forest.

There was a large lake in the middle of the path to the city, but there was a bridge over it so it didn't concern me. There was also a honey tree and a few Pokémon milling about but nothing really stuck out.

"Alright, this is a lot of nostalgia to say the least." Red concluded as we floated across the bridge.

"I quite like how quiet it all is. Much better than the forest full of savages." Belle noted.

"Indeed. I came across some not so kind Pokémon myself on my own excretions." I agreed.

"Welcome to Eterna City!" Red shouted, turning our attention to the city.

There were three rows of buildings, some were taller, one had a blue roof, one had an orange roof, and one had a cobblestone roof.

Further ahead was a red roofed building and another house, I also saw a giant building with a strange thing on the top.

Then there was a hill with a statue of a Pokémon I had never seen before on it, along with a few houses scattered around it.

"Wow, this place looks alive again!" Red rushed in without hesitation, floating around energetically.

"I've never seen a village so large." I awed, following Red in his progression
through the city.

"I think this is called a 'City.'" Belle remembered, however she said the word like it was from a foreign language.

"City... that's an odd word." I noted.

"Guys! Come on! Minaret is here!" Red waved to us from the hill, there was a large crowd of Plusle and Minun surrounding the hill, Golurks were keeping them from getting through.

We made our way to Red, who was on the edge of the crowd, trying to see around the Golurk for someone called Minaret.

"Everyone please, settle down!" A voice emerged from the hill, and a Roserade walked into sight.

"MINARET! MINARET!" The crowd cheered in unison.

"Ah, I must thank you all for coming to- RED IS THAT YOU?" Minaret turned his attention to the shiny Rotom, along with the crowd.

"Hi Minaret!" He waved, and Minaret looked even more joyed... somehow.

"We will talk after the show! I must give the audience what they came for!" Minaret told us, and Red nodded before beginning to float away.

"Trust me guys, you're gonna want to put some distance between your ears and the crowd." Red warned and we followed him.

Later we had been invited onto the hill Minaret used as a stage to chat. Minaret and Red talked about things like a 'Control' and another Rotom. However I mostly ignored it, until they brought up Arcadia.

"Arcadia? Hm I feel like I've heard that before..." Minaret trailed off, before gasping. "Yes I remember! It was a news report, he took over Snowpoint City! He's using it as his personal base, most likely because of the Regigigas that is there!"

"Oh man, well then we have to get there and fast!" Red removed his giant map.

"Hm, perhaps it wouldn't be wise to go in through the normal entrance. He most likely would be guarding that. Maybe instead we could pose as a supply ship from Canalave and get in through there?" I proposed, and Red turned.

"Yeah that's a great idea! Except what if he just blows up the ship?" Red frowned.

"Actually, I heard that he also took control over a fleet of ships to deliver him supplies. If you just took one over you could get in!" Minaret remembered.

"Alright, we can stop him once and for all!" Belle cheered, and Red nodded.

"Although it's out of our way it's our best chance," Red agreed.

"I have a friend who can transport you there in a flash! ZAKA!" Minaret called and an Alakazam teleported right in front of us, causing Red to jump behind Minaret, screaming.

"Red, calm down." Minaret told him and he stopped screaming and sighed.

"What is it you need from me Minaret?" Zaka asked.

"Teleport these three to Canalave City." Minaret ordered and the psychic type nodded, before turning to us.

"Brace yourselves, teleportation can be," he paused trying to find the right word. "Uncomfortable."

"I am sure we can do it!" I supplied.

"Yeah, it can't be THAT bad, right?" Red asked nervously.

"If Kut's doing it then so am I!" Belle took my hand, which boosted my mood.

"Alright then everyone, prepare for teleportation." Zaka warned and suddenly we were in Canalave.

I was overcome with a wave of nausea, can swords throw up? Well if they could I was about to, I noticed Red and Belle weren't doing much better.

When the nausea finally passed I noticed we were right next to the docks. I didn't have time to look at the rest of the city as my eyes were fixated on the five black boats on the docks.

Each one was as large as an average cruise ship, but they were so menacing. However I steeled my nerves and pushed towards them.

"Alright, if we just steal one then we can get out of here and to Snowpoint city." Red stated the obvious.

"We can do this." Belle encouraged.

"Of course we can, I just have to get in them I can control the things electrical system and get us out of here." Red told us confidently.

"Alright, how can we assist you?" I questioned.

"Just get anyone and everyone off the boat." Red answered and we raced forward onto one of the ships, there wasn't anyone on board so Red immediately went to work and next thing we knew we were sailing out of Canalave.

The ship veered to the right and the Sinnoh region became a small black speck, all I could see now was the vast ocean ahead of us, and I loved it.
