Chapter 11: Scare Game of the Night


It had been a day since they left Jubilife City making their way through a forest to Oreburgh City to get their second badge. As they walked under the protective branches of the forest, Danny couldn't drop the worried feeling he had since they last talked to Sunda. "Hey Danny, what's wrong?" Darkrai asked feeling the worry coming from the Halfa's side of the link.

"Nothing," Danny told him trying to hide how he was feeling and forgetting about the link he had with the Dark-Type.

"Are you sure? Because it seems as if you are trying to slip away from the question," Darkrai asked a bit amused at how the Ghost Boy was trying to hide how he was feeling.

"Really, nothing is bugging me," Danny insisted trying to get out of the question being use to hiding how he was feeling most of the time to not worry anyone.

"You do realize that it's no use hiding it from me right?" Darkrai asked him knowingly.

"I'm telling you the truth, nothing bugging me," the Halfa tells him really wanting to drop the subject.

"Don't even try that with me," Darkrai tells him with a small glare, "Even though I'm doing my best not to invade your mind, I will do so just to find out what's bugging you."

Danny just blinked a few times trying to figure out what the Dark-Type meant, then it hit him, causing him to sigh in defeat knowing that he was not going to get out of this, "Fine, you win this time. I'm just worried that the scientists that synced our minds together may be trying to find us to bring us back to continue their experiments."

"You're worried about that?" Darkrai asked a bit in disbelief, "I'm sure that they have given up on us by now."

"I'm not so sure about that," the Halfa told him sternly, "With past experience with a group back home called the Guys in White, they are not going to give up so easily. I have a feeling that they will not stop looking for us until they get what they want or until something or someone stops them."

"What makes you say that?"

"Because when the Guys in White first started going after my ghost half thinking I was bad, they didn't stop trying to catch me even when I proved to be a hero in many people's eyes. They still continued trying to catch me even after I saved the world from being destroyed, but it's becoming lesser and lesser each mouth."

"Um...Now that I think about, I guess you're right," Darkrai agreed after thinking about it for a few seconds, "I don't know what I was thinking. Of course they will be wanting us after Looker deleted all their info on how to do it."

"Hey, at least it was hopeful thinking," Danny pointed out knowing exactly how the Nightmare Pokemon was feeling.

"Hey, isn't that a Darkrai?" a voice asked.

"Yeah, I think it is," another voice confirmed.

"What is he doing traveling with a human boy?"

"Wait, didn't you hear the rumors?"

"What rumors?"

"They have been going on for about a week now. Where have you been all this time?"

"Sleeping..."

"Really?"

"Yup..."

"Ok...Well, there are tons of rumors going around about a Darkrai traveling with a human boy."

"Really?"

"Yeah. There is one that says that a Darkrai was captured by a group of humans called scientists for some kind of experiment and the human boy rescued him. So now the Darkrai is traveling with the human boy to repay him for his help."

"Wow!"

"I know. But there is also another one that says that they both were captured but managed to escape working together. Now they are traveling around watching each other's backs."

"Are there anymore?"

"Yeah. There's another saying that the human boy who is traveling with the Darkrai is able to understand us Pokemon."

"So you are saying that that boy down there may be able to clearly hear what we are saying right now?"

"Yup."

"That's so cool! And you don't hear a human being able to understand us every day."

"I know. But there is another one that is a bit freaky and is too unbelievable that it may not even be true."

"How so?"

"Well the rumor is, is that the human boy may not even be human, well not completely human. Some say that they witness him being able to transform into something else that allows him to fly and do other inhuman stuff."

"What kind of inhuman stuff?"

"Some say they saw him being able to shoot these green energy beams, create ice and go through solid objects."

"They sound a bit like something a ghost would be able to do. Is he a ghost of some sort that we haven't heard of before?"

"I'm not sure. No one really knows."

"So is he dangerous?"

"Maybe. But knowing if he's good or bad is the main question."

"That I can understand. I would hate having him come after one of us."

"It sounds like they are making me out as some kind of dangerous person," Danny sighed at hearing the wild Pokemon conversation.

"Well aren't you?" Darkrai jokingly asked.

"...Maybe..." Danny answered not wanting to confess that his powers or himself was dangerous.

"What makes you so unsure?" the Dark-Type asked.

"I'm not unsure about it," the Halfa states defending himself, "I can be dangerous...but only if I want to be." He then looked up to the sky and saw the setting sun, "It's getting late, I think we should stop here and set up camp for the night."

"Good idea. I'll go get the firewood and you can set up your camping gear," the Dark-Type agreed and then took off to find some wood as Danny started setting things up for the night.

Later that night when everyone was starting to settle down for a good night rest, a certain blue mist escaped a certain Halfa's mouth causing him set up and groan as he looked around for the one who decided to disturb his well-deserved rest. Hearing the groan and the sudden movement, Luna lifted her head from her spot beside Darkrai under a tree to where she heard the disturbance, "Danny...is everything ok?"

"Maybe, but not for long," Danny answered fully awake now as he took in their surroundings.

"How..so?" the Lunar Pokemon asked half asleep.

"My Ghost Sense just went off signaling that a ghost is nearby," the Ghost Boy explained as he got up to take a look around.

"Are you sure you're not just sensing yourself?" Darkrai joked.

"Yes, I'm sure," the Halfa deadpanned, "I'm just hoping that the one who caused it to go off isn't one of my enemies from back home that somehow made it here and is just a Ghost-Type Pokemon." He then turned his gazed in a random direction that he felt he should look in, "I'm going to take a look over there. I'll be right back," then he took off.

"Do you think he will be ok?" Luna asked her brother as she watched the boy disappear off into the woods.

"I'm sure he will be fine," the Dark-Type assured her as he got into a more comfortable position, "I'm sure that if he needed help, he would have told us."

"I just hope you're right,' the Psychic-Type said as she looked up to the sky with the feeling that she won't be getting any sleep until Danny gets back.

Danny made his way through the trees as he kept his guard up for any surprise attacks that may happen. He may be in a different world, but that didn't change the fact that something may happen knowing his luck. Just then a ghost like creature appeared before him out of nowhere crying out, "Boo! Fear me!"

Danny jumped back a bit in surprise expecting to see a certain annoying box loving ghost before him, but all he saw was a small red ghost with a white skull shape mask with a red orb for its eye or eyes trying to look scary. Seeing that it wasn't who he was expecting, the Ghost Boy let out a sigh of relief that he didn't realize he was holding, "So you were the one that I sense? Well, at least you're not someone I sadly know."

"Wait...You're not scared of me?" the ghost like Pokemon asked shocked. When he first saw the kid, he was expecting to easily scare the life out of him since he looked like an easy target. Was he losing his touch?

"Nope," the Halfa simply answered with, if he was someone else, sure he may have been scared.

"Not even a little bit?" the ghost asked hopefully not even noticing the fact that the boy could understand him.

"You mostly surprised me then scared me," Danny confessed as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Darn it, you seemed like an easy target as well," the ghost grumbled in disappointment.

"You will be needing to do something more than appearing out of nowhere to scare me. This appearing out of thin air is something normal for me" the Ghost Boy told him with a small chuckle, "Now if you excuse me, I have to get back to my friends," he then turned around and headed back to camp.

The ghost watched the boy leave with a determined look, "If I didn't scare you this time, then I will get you next time. Let the Scare Game of the Night begin."

Hearing someone enter their campsite, Darkrai creaked opened one of his eyes and saw Danny, "So did you find the ghost that caused your Ghost Sense to go off?"

"Yeah, it was some kind of Ghost Pokemon," the Halfa answered with a yawn as he slipped into his sleeping bag, "It tried to scare me by appearing out of nowhere, but it kind of failed on his end."

"Which Ghost Pokemon?" Luna asked as she laid back down knowing that Danny was back safely.

"I forgot to check," Danny confessed ready to fall asleep at any given moment, "But it was a ghost with a white skull shape mask and a red orb for its eye or eyes?"

"Sounds like you had a run in with a Duskull," Darkrai stats when he heard the description of it, "And by the sounds of it, you may want to watch your back. From what I heard, they enjoy scaring people especially little kids. So since it failed in scaring you, it may be back to try again."

"I'm sure I'll be fine..." Danny sleepily mumbled as he fell fast asleep.

Seeing that the Ghost Boy fell asleep without a care, the Dark-Type couldn't help but shake his head and soon fell asleep himself.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


Throughout the night, Danny found himself being woken up at the most random times by his Ghost Sense going off but finding nothing out of the ordinary each time. The one who was disturbing the young hero's sleep was the same Duskull from before trying to scare the Halfa. But so far, each time the Requiem Pokémon tried to scare the half ghost, said half ghost would end up waking up before the Ghost-Type was ready and would hide again until the boy was fast asleep. Knowing that it was almost sun raised, the Ghost-Type knew he had to hurry if he wanted to give the boy a scare. Without missing a beat and not caring if the boy woke up before he was ready, Duskull rushed over to position himself above the boy's face ready to scare him. As he floated there waiting for the boy to wake, he noticed a strange blue mist leave the kid's mouth.

With the feeling that he usually got when his Ghost Sense went off, Danny inwardly groaned as he opened his eyes spotting the same Duskull as before floating right in his face. Not expecting the Pokemon to be there, without even thinking, Danny quickly blasted the Duskull with an ectoblast sending him backwards into a tree. Hearing the ectoblast being shot and something hitting a tree hard, both Luna and Darkrai jumped into the air fully awake. Darkrai quickly turned his attention to the Halfa, "What just happened?"

"I think I just blasted the Duskull from before," Danny sleepily confessed not very sure how he should react it.

Duskull stuck to the tree in a dazed from the powerful blast and from the collision with the tree, "What just happened?" He then shook his head to shake himself out of it and then everything came back to him as he stared at the boy in shock, "How did you do that?" He then quickly flew up to Danny and started looking him over, "Where did that blast come from? Did you have another Pokemon hiding somewhere?"

Danny just stared at the Pokemon unsure how to explain it. Should he tell him that he was the one who shot it? Maybe he should, even though he been trying to keep his ghost powers a secret in this world. But with the rumors going around with the Pokemon, it was kind of useless to keep them a secret at the moment. Plus, what were the chances of another human being able to understand Pokemon or a Pokemon being able to speak the human language? "I was actually the one who shot it. Sorry about that though. You shouldn't be floating in someone's face when they wake up because you may give them a heart attack or end up getting hurt yourself, just like now."

"Wait...Did you just say you fired that attack?" the Ghost-Type asked unsure if he was hearing things.

"Um yeah," the Halfa answered sure that he just finished saying that.

"Really? Because you don't look special," Dusksull comments as he circles Danny again as he looks the boy over.

"Hey!" the Halfa cried out offended by the comment. Sure he may not look like someone with amazing ghost powers, but that didn't mean anything. He learned this lesson long ago from Sam and Paulina.

"I didn't mean anything bad about it," Duskull stats trying to defend himself as he backed away a bit hearing the edge in the boy's voice. "But I do feel a faint energy coming off of you that ghosts usually give off which is strange."

"That is because I'm half ghost," Danny informed him.

"Yeah right. A human being half ghost? That's something to think about," Duskull laughed as he thought about it, "I heard rumors of a human that is believed to be something like a ghost, but we all know that is impossible right?"

Hearing this, Danny couldn't help but smirk and snicker, "Then I hope you are ready to be amazed."

"What makes you sa-" the Ghost-Type started to say but stop mid-sentence when he watched a ring of white energy appear out of nowhere and started traveling across the boy. He watched as the rings finished traveling across the boy and disappeared leaving the boy looking a bit different and the ghost energy coming off of him became even stronger. "So you mean that-that you are act-actually a-a-"

"A half ghost? A Halfa? Yes. Yes, I am," Danny interrupted smirking knowingly.

"But-But-But-" unable to comprehend what had just happened, Duskull fainted on the spot.

Actting quickly before the fainted Pokemon could hit the ground, Danny caught the Ghost-Type in his arms. "Is he going to be ok?" Luna asked as she watched Danny lay Duskull in his sleeping bag.

"Yeah, he will fine in a bit," Danny assured them as he stood back up.

"So what do we do now?" Darkrai asked not used to being in this type of situation.

"We wait for him to wake up," Danny answered casually as if he was used to this. He then flew up into the tree that Darkrai and Luna were sleeping under and landed on one of the thicker branches before changing back to human.

Up in the tree, Danny looked up at the stars through the leaves as he wondered how his parents, Jazz, Tucker and Sam were doing back home. Were they all ok? Were they doing fine without him? How was Amity Park doing without him protecting them from the ghost attacks? Were they having problems with the ghost attacks? Those were the questions that were going through his head keeping him awake and wasn't sure how he was able to fell asleep that night.

The next morning was when Dusksull finally woke up from his shock. As he floated off the ground still a bit out of it as he tried to recall what happened the other day and why he was out in the sunlight. After a bit, yesterday's events came rushing back to him causing him to start looking around in a panic for the Ghost Boy. He didn't have to look hard, for the Ghost Child wasn't that far away tending to some food over the campfire. "Ah-" the Ghost-Type started to ask but stopped when he didn't remember ever catching the boy's name.

"It's Danny," the Halfa tells him not taking his eyes off the food he was cooking.

"Um, everything that happened last night, was it real?" Duskull asked just to make sure he wasn't imagining things.

"Yup," Danny answered with a small nod, "And you took it much better than I thought you would."

"So how did you become this, ah-ah-" the Requiem Pokémon started to ask but wasn't sure how to approach it.

"A Halfa? It's happened in a lab accident a few years back," Danny simplified, "Word of advice, never put an 'On' button inside of a portal."

"Ok..." Duskull replied unsure why he would be needing to remember something like that.

"Hey Duskull, I have a question that I hope you will be able to answer," Danny said catching the Requiem Pokémon's attention, "Is there any portals around here that led to the Ghost Zone?"

"The Ghost Zone?" Duskull asked confused on not hearing a place like that before, but it did sound a bit like a place he knew of.

"Yeah, the portals have different shades of swirling green and black and the Ghost Zone is another dimension that is green and black with floating purple doors and floating land masses that different kinds of ghosts live in," Danny explained as he took the food off the fire.

"I don't think I ever heard of a place like that," Duskull told him finding no harm in telling someone that was half ghost, "But there is a place called the Spirit World or the Ghost World were Ghost-Type Pokemon and ghosts of people and Pokemon live. Portals there are quite rare to find though, but I don't think it's the place you are looking for."

"How so?" the Halfa asked, it sounded a bit like the Ghost Zone to him, besides ghosts of Pokemon and Ghost-Types.

"The Ghost or Spirit World is a place that is different shades of purple, reds and blacks and doesn't have any floating purple doors."

"That's a bummer," Danny sighed in disappointment, "There goes my main option of getting home."

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing you need to worry about," Danny quickly told him and then placed some of the freshly made food in front of Duskull, "Here, you must be hungry."

"Um yeah, thanks," Duskull thanked not expecting such kindness from someone he was just trying to scare.

"No problem," the Halfa said as he passed out the other's food out, "And just a heads up, make sure you keep it away from these two if you know what's good for it."

"Hey! You're one to talk," Darkrai retorts smirking.

"Then you haven't met my friend Tucker, he could eat someone out of house and home if he wanted to," Danny jokingly says.

"I wonder how he will do in an eating contest with a Lickytong or with a Likyliky," the Dark-Type commented.

"Or better yet, against a Munchlax or a Snorlax," Luna playfully added in.

"They are all Pokemon with big appetites," Darkrai told Danny mentally.

"Thanks for the heads up," the Halfa said mentally, then out loud said, "Now that would be interesting to see."

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


After a while, everyone had finished eating and started packing everything up. Once everything was packed, Danny and the gang continued on their way as Duskull stayed behind in the forest. "I wonder if we will ever meet up with that Duskull again," Danny says as they made their way further into the forest.

"I'm sure that we will knowing how our luck been so far," Darkrai told him.

Unknown to them, the Duskull was wondering if he will meet up with the gang again as well.

Chapter 10: A Rival?


Roark was making his way through Jubilife City to get to get to Oreburgh City when he stopped in his tracks in fount of a new cafe unsure if he was seeing things or not. Out of the cafe came a boy that looked a lot like Danny followed by a Darkrai. "Wait a minute, was that just Danny and his Darkrai? But that can't be! How could they have gotten here before me?" He then held his hand up to his head as he shook it, "I think I'm just seeing things. First that flying black and white thing with a Darkrai following it and now seeing Danny and his Darkrai getting here before. I think I need to get some sleep when I get back to the gym," he then continued on his way to Oreburgh as he tried to figure things out.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


Leaving the cafe behind them, Danny and Darkrai made their way to the headquarters that Sunda was located at. "So Darkrai, are you going to hide in my shadow?"

"Like I said in the cafe, I don't see the point in doing so right now," Darkrai answered, "Besides why do I need to when pretty much everyone in this town knows about me."

"I guess you're right," the Halfa replied with a small sigh knowing the Dark-Type was right. After a bit, Danny felt as if they were being followed and turned around at a quick pace to look behind him but saw nothing.

Seeing Danny's sudden movement caused Darkrai to stop in his tracks and look back at his friend, "Is everything ok?"

Danny stood there for a bit taking in his surroundings looking for anything strange before turning back to look at his friend, "I believe so. It just felt as if we were being followed a moment ago."

"You must be imagining it," Darkrai commented not recalling having that feeling.

"Maybe, but I'm not going to let my guard down just yet," the Halfa assured him. He didn't want to take the risk of a sneak attack if one was to come.

"Don't you think you're being a bit paranoid?" the Nightmare Pokemon asked him as they started on their way again.

"No, I'm just being rational," Danny simply answered with.

"If you say so," the Dark-Type states with a roll of his eyes

"You don't believe me do you?" Danny asked knowingly.

"What makes you say that?" Darkrai asked acting innocently.

Danny just shook his head at the Dark-Type reply when he had the feeling that they were being followed again. Resisting the urge of turning around to see who was following them, Danny pulled Darkrai towards an unpopulated area of the city. Once he was sure that no one was around them in case something went down and stopped walking he called out, "I know you're there so come on out."

In reply for Danny's order, it was quite for a few minutes, but when Darkrai was about to say something, someone else spoke, "I'm impressed you were able to detect me. You have great detective skills."

At the sound of the voice, the two turned around to see a man with light green eyes, long grayish blue hair and was wearing a long red cloak. "Um thanks, but why are you following us?" Danny asked not letting his guard down in the slightest.

"Because I wanted to have a look at that Darkrai of yours," the man simply answered.

"Why is that?" Danny asked not buying it in the sightless, he had the feeling that there was something more to this man, "I know that he is a Legendary Pokemon and all, but you could of had came up to us instead of following us as if you were someone up to no good."

"I guess your right, sorry about that," the man apologized, "But I mostly wanted to see how your Darkrai compares to mine."

"Wait, you have a Darkrai?" Danny asked shocked not expecting that.

The man nodded as he tossed out a Pokeball and out of the flash of light was another Darkrai. The Darkrai beside Danny stared at the newcomer and greeted it with, "Shadow."

The Darkrai now known as Shadow stared at the Darkrai besides the Ghost Boy, "Phantom, it's nice to see you again."

"Wait, you two know each other?" Danny asked surprised forgetting about the man at the time being and turned to the Darkrai beside him, "And your name is Phantom?"

"Yeah, why do you think I was so hesitant on telling you my name," the Darkrai now known as Phantom answered, "I didn't want it to seem awkward with you calling me by your alto ego's name."

"I'm sure I would of have been fine," Danny assured him even though he may of found it a bit strange.

"By the sounds of it, you seem to be able to understand the tongue of Pokemon," the man commented as he watched in interest.

"Um yeah," the Halfa confessed a bit embarrassed that he forgot that the guy was there.

"So I guess it's no use talking about you as if you can't hear us?" Shadow asked a bit disappointed on the subject. When he saw Danny nod, he then said, "Oh well. Hey Phantom, no offense, but I don't think your trainer is for you. Aren't you one of the ones that enjoy giving nightmares?"

"You know as well as I do that I'm not a big fan of giving nightmares," Phantom growled.

"Yeah right, I remember when we were little, you enjoyed going out with your father during the moonless nights just to give others nightmares," Shadow stats knowingly.

"That may have been when I was younger, but I have changed since then," Phantom growled, "And didn't you say yourself that you didn't want a trainer?"

"True, but just like you said, I've also changed," Shadow informed him, "But can you prove that you changed? You still seem like the Phantom I know of."

"I can prove it perfectly," Phantom stats as he got down into a battle position, "But can you prove that you changed as well?"

"I know I can," Shadow declared as he got down into a battle position too.

"By the sounds of it, they want to have a battle," Danny informed the man sweat dropping a bit at how the two Nightmare Pokemon were acting.

The man looked at the battle ready Pokemon, then to Danny, "As much as I would love to see who's Darkrai is the strongest, right now is not a good time. We have something that we have to be in a bit," he then called back his Darkrai to its Pokeball, "I'm Tobias by the way."

"Danny," the Halfa informed him.

"Well Danny, hopefully the next time we meet, we can have ourself a battle," Tobias told him and then walked away.

"Can't wait! See you around!" Danny called out then turned to the Dark-Type beside him, "So do you want me to continue calling you Darkrai or start calling you Phantom?"

"Ether is fine," the Dark-Type told him, "It's up to you, whichever one is more comfortable for you."

"Ok," Danny nodded understanding what the Nightmare Pokemon meant, "Now let's get going."

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


"Ah, Danny, Darkrai, it's so great to see you two again so soon," Sunda greeted as the two entered his office.

"It's great to see you again too," Danny greeted as he took a seat in front of the desk.

"So how have your travels been so far?" the chief asked with interest.

"So far it been great," the Halfa told him, "We went to Full Moon where we met up with Phantom's sister."

"Phantom?" Sunda asked confused with the name.

"Yeah, that is apparently what Darkrai's name is," Danny explained, it may be a bit strange calling the Darkrai Phantom, but it felt like the right thing to do.

"And who is Dar-I mean Phantom's sister?" Sunda asked.

"How about I show you instead," the Halfa suggested as he took out Luna's ball and let her out in a flash of light, "Sunda. this is Luna."

Sunda's eyes lit up in delight at the sight, "Amazing. Who would have thought that a Darkrai and a Cresselia could be siblings."

Once Luna was out of her Healball, she turned to her Halfa friend and glared at him, "It's about time you let me out! Do you realize how bored I was in there! I was doing my best of not letting myself out."

"Sorry that it took so long, but we got caught up in something," the Ghost Boy tried to reason, "But I may have something you would like."

"Really? Like what?" the Psychic-Type asked wondering what the Ghost Boy had up his sleeve that would stop her from sending an Aurora Beam at him or send him flying using Psychic...Ok now that she thought about it, sending him flying may not work, He could just fly back or stop in mid-flight on his own.

"Um, cookies?" Danny answered even though it sounded like a question as he held up the bag of leftover double trouble chocolate chip cookies.

At the sight of the cookies, Luna's eyes lit up with joy, "COOKIES!" and in no time at all, she grabbed them with her Psychic and started munching down on them.

"I guess I should have warned you about my sister's sweet tooth," Phantom states with a small sweatdrop at the sight of Luna diving into the cookies.

"Yeah, you should have," Danny told him grumbling a little, "Now I have to make sure I hide any if my sweets from her," then he turned his attention to the Lunar Pokemon, "Anyways, Luna, this is Sunda, he's in charge of the people that are looking to see if there is a way to reverse what was done to Phantom and me."

Luna stopped eating her cookies as she looked over at Sunda, "So this is the guy in charge? I just hope he knows what he's doing," then she went back to enjoying the cookies.

"Um, what did she just say?" Sunda asked a bit confused at the language and was shocked that in such a short amount of time another legendary was standing before him.

"Oh, she just said that she hopes you know what you are doing," the Halfa translated.

"Don't worry, I have my best people working on it," the chief assured her, "I also got some Pokemon Professors and their people helping out as well."

"Wait, you have people outside of the force helping?" the Halfa asked a bit worried that his secret may be out once again.

"Don't worry, the people I requested help from are the ones I trust the most," Sunda assured him before the boy could jump to too many conclusions, "All they are doing is looking over the syncing notes to add their own expertise to it. Nothing about your ghost half has been revealed just like I promise. But I fear that there may come a time where we may just need to add that part to the calculations if we get stuck."

Danny let out a sigh of relief at hearing that, his secret was still safe for the time being. Just then he remembered something, "Oh yeah, Sunda, are the Pokeballs designed to have stuff inside them to keep the Pokemon that are inside them busy?"

Sunda sat there as he thought about it over, "I believed so if I remember correctly. From what I heard of, a Pokeball is believed to be designed to create a friendly environment for the captured Pokemon, but no one is very sure if that is true. But if it is, it may take some time, because the Pokeball may need some time to figure out what a friendly environment is for the Pokemon inside it."

"You hear that Luna?" Danny asked the Lunar Pokemon smirking, "You're Healball may not be so boring soon."

"I hope so, but I hate waiting," Luna grumbled as she munched on her cookies.

"So has anything else interesting happened to you?" Sunda asked deciding to change the subject around.

"Well, I won the Mine Badge without really meaning to," the Halfa confessed as he rubbed the back of his neck, "I just was just helping bring Byron back to his old self through a battle and it was kind of under the official league rules at the same time."

"So are you going to try and defeat the other gyms along with winning the Sinnoh League?" the chief asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Yeah, that seems to be the plan at the moment."

"That's good, this may also be a good way for you to learn more about this world during your stay here."

"Hopefully. Oh yeah, is Looker around by any chance?"

"Actually, he left a few days ago on a new mission to track down an evil organization," Sunda explained then thought for a moment, "I know I shouldn't be telling you this, but they may be a group that you may be needing to look out for. Not much is known about them since they had just started appearing not that long ago. But for what we found out about them so far, they are trying to take over the world and make it their own."

Danny couldn't help but shake his head at that, "Why doesn't that surprise me?" then he sighed, "At least they aren't trying to kill someone's dad, marry their mom and make them their evil apprentice or son or both."

"Wait? What?" Sunda asked very confused and wondering if he heard right.

"Nothing you need to worry about," Danny quickly said not wanting to explain the story at the, "But if we find anything about them, I'll give you a call as soon as I can."

"That would be appreciated."

"How has the research been going anyways?"

Sunda just sighed a bit in sadness, "So far nothing that helpful, we are still searching through all the notes trying to find any hints to undo it."

Danny just sighed, "That's disappointing."

"Don't get too worked up about it, we just started looking it over not that long ago as well," the chief said trying to cheer the boy up, "Plus as we looked through it, we also have to consider many different things as well."

"Yeah I guess you're right," the Halfa said as he rubbed the back of his neck a bit embarrass, "I guess I should have known that from being the son of two scientists."

The chief nodded his head, "So are you heading to Oreburgh next?"

Danny nodded, "Yeah and Roark already said that he be more than willing to accept my challenge at the gym."

"Then I hope you are ready. Steel-Types may be quite difficult to take down, but Rock-Types can be too if you don't have the right strategy and the right moves."

"Thanks for the heads up, but I'm sure I'll be able to come up with something for it."

"Also, if you are going to sign up for the Sinnoh League, you will be needing to do so at a Pokemon Center," Sunda explained to him, "But I'll be able to do it here if you want."

"You don't have to do that," Danny told him as he held up his hands in protest, "I'm sure I can do that myself."

"But I insist," Sunda told him smiling, "Plus, don't you three have to head off to Oreburgh for that badge?"

"Thanks, I guess," the Halfa accepted with a small sigh having the feeling that no matter what he would say, Sunda would keep on insisting. He then stood up and turned to Luna and Phantom, "Are you two ready to head out?"

"But I'm eating my cookies," the Psychic-Type protested with a cookie floating not that far away from her mouth.

"You can eat them in your Healball if you want," the Ghost Boy suggested.

Luna then thought about the offer, "Fine, but only because of the cookies."

Danny then took out Luna's Healball, returned her to it and put it away. He then turned to Sunda, "I guess I'll see you later then and thanks for all your help so far," he then left with Phantom right behind the.

Sunda watched the two leaving smiling, he was glad those two were doing well so far.

Somewhere else tons of scientists were rushing around trying to get some work done. "What's going on in here?" asked a man with dark purple hair put up to look like a crashing wave, dark blue eyes and looked to have some muscle. He was wearing a dark purple-gray sleeveless shirt with a black symbol over his heart that was an O with what looked like a P in the center, purple sweat pants with black stripes on the side and black combat boots.

"W-W-We are t-tr-trying to find where the subjects disappeared off to," one of the scientists answered nervously when he noticed the man standing there.

"What do you mean 'disappeared'?" the man demanded with a glare.

"W-W-We-Well you see Victor, they had disappeared a few days ago," the same scientist answered scared about what the man now known as Victor reaction will be.

"And why didn't you tell anyone?" Victor asked not very impressed.

"W-We thought that we wo-would have th-th-them b-ba-back by now."

"Do you have any idea on where they may be?"

"No-No not really. W-We-We're still looking for them."

Victor let out a small growl at hearing this, "What about the data? If we still have that, we won't be needing to worry about finding those two."

"I-It-It's all gone sir. We somehow lost it. W-We don't know what happened, b-but it been deleted."

"What about the backup?"

"It-It's been detected as w-well."

Victor let out a larger growl not very pleased at the information that was given to him, "Our leader will not like this if he finds out about this that is. For now, we will not say anything about this for the time being. For now, get more of our agents out looking for them. Also, send out a notice to all Pokemon Hunters about a big reward if they are able to capture and are able to bring those two in alive."

"Well do!" the scientist cried out and started to get to work.

With that taken care of, Victor left the room, "And I will go out there as well to look for them," then he smirked an evil smirk and laughed, "This is going to be fun."

Chapter 9: Meeting up with a New Friend


After they were done in the main part of Caralave City, the gang found themselves in the outskirts of the city in a forest like area. After a bit of talking when they were taking care of some things in the city, it had been decided that they will head over to Oreburgh City to get their next Gym Badge, "Since we are going to be passing through Jubilife City, how about we stop in and give Sunda a visit to see how things are doing on their end," Danny suggested as they made their way through the trees.

"Won't it be easier to to just call to find out?" Darkrai asked as he ducked under a tree branch.

"Maybe, but I think it would be better if we just drop in since we will be in the area," the Halfa pointed out as his phone started to ring. "I wonder who calling me," he asked himself as he reached into his pocket to pull out his phone and put it up to his ear, "Hello?"

"Hey Danny, it's me, Crysta," the voice on the other side replied with.

"Hey Crystal, how it going?" the Ghost Boy asked not letting his walking pace drop.

"It's been going great so far," Crysta answered in a happy tone, "I just wanted to let you know that the magazine I was telling you about is out and I was wondering if you wanted to meet up at a little cafe I know in Jubilife City."

"Sure, what is the place called?" Danny asked as he subconsciously turned intangible to pass through a tree that was in his path.

"It's called Evolution Magic," the journalist replied with having no idea what had just happened on the other side of the line, "It's a place were Pokemon and trainer alike can get something to eat or drink at. They also sell different items to help Pokemon evolve there as well."

"Sounds like an interesting place," Danny commented as he wondered what kind of things they sold there, food and evolution items alike, "I'm on the outskirts of Caralave City, around Route 218, so I may be in Jubilife City in about twenty minutes or so."

There was silence on the line for a bit before Crysta spoke again, "Are you sure you will be there that fast? Because I'm sure that it would take more than twenty minutes even by blimp to get from Cavalave to Jubilife, and by then it may be quite late to meet up at. We can meet up tomorrow if you want so you don't rush and hurt yourself."

"Don't worry about me, I will be just fine. I know of a way that I will be there in no time," Danny replied smiling, "How about you meet me at the east entrance of Jubilife in about thirty minutes so you can show where the cafe is."

"Um sure," Crysta says a bit unsure on what else to say on the situation with the feeling that no matter what she said, Danny will just do whatever he has in mind in the end.

"Great! See you there then!" Danny then hanged up his Pokegear and put it away.

"And how are we going to get there in about twenty minutes?" Luna asked quite confused, "Because I'm sure that it will take much longer than that to get there.

"I know of a way," the Halfa answered smirking.

"If you are thinking about riding me, you can forget about it!" the Lunar Pokemon cried out jumping to conclusions.

Danny just rolled his eyes, "Did you forget that I can fly there myself?" he then summoned his transformation rings transforming into his ghostly self.

"Oh," Luna says a bit dumbfounded forgetting about that bit of information, but to try and cover herself up, she quickly said, "I knew that."

Ignoring the last part of the Psychic-Type statement, the Halfa reached into his pocket and pulled out Luna's Healball, "Luna, I'm going to return you to your Healball for now. This way you don't have to worry about keeping up with us and can save your energy."

"And what about him?" the Lunar Pokemon asked as she tilted her head towards her brother, "Why aren't you taking his out?"

"Because I don't want to be tortured," the Ghost Boys replies with using an unamused tone, "I already know what it feels like with him being inside one, and I don't want to feel as if I'm trapped inside the Fenton Thermos or the Fenton Crammer. Don't ask. Plus I don't think Darkie likes being in one as well."

"So true," Darkrai commented then glared at the Halfa, "And don't call me Darkie. Only Luna can call me that."

"And what are you going to do about it?" Danny asked smirking evilly wondering what the Dark-Type had in mind.

The Nightmare Pokemon thought about what he could do, but came up with nothing, "I will think of something."

"Sure you will," the Halfa joked smirking.

Deciding not to question by what the Ghost Boy meant by the Fenton Thermos or by the Fenton Crammer for the time being, she sighed in defeat, "Fine," then she sent an evil glare at the boy, "But you better let me out as soon as possible. I also somewhat hate being in one as well. There's nothing interesting to do in there! For a device that is designed to house different Pokemon, you would expect there to be something inside to keep us busy.

"I'm sure there will be something in there to keep you busy at some point," Danny tried to reason, maybe he should ask Sunda later about that, "But yeah, I will let you out later."

"Good!" Luna nodded in approval.

The Halfa returned Luna to her Healball and then put it away. He then turned to look at the Dark-Type, "So ready to take off?"

"Do you need to ask?" Darkrai asked smirking.

"Race ya!" Danny called out as he took off into the sky.

"Hey! Wait up!" the Nightmare Pokemon called out as he rushed off to try to catch up to the speedy half ghost.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


Up in the blimp that was slowly making its way to Jubilife City, Roark sat by the window looking at the passing land but it was mostly sea underneath them. His mind was on the events that happened not that long ago at the gym, he still couldn't believe what happened there. How was a trainer able to catch two very powerful Legendaries, for what he knew of, without any or having any other Pokemon to help him out? Danny must have been lucky on his part for that to happen to him. Just then something caught his eye outside the window that brought him out of his thoughts. Flying not that far away was a black and white object with what seemed to be a Darkrai not that far behind it. The Rock-Type Gym Leader started at it for a bit, he couldn't help but ask for reasons unknown to him, "Is that Danny and Darkrai?" then he closed his eyes and shook his head, "I must be seeing things. The last time I saw him, I'm sure Danny wasn't able to fly or was black and white." When he opened his eyes again and looked out the window, the objects were gone, "Yeah, I must have been seeing things."

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


"Where is he?" Crysta asked herself as she waited by the east entrance of Jubilife City for her friends.

"Sorry that we're late!" a familiar voice called out.

Crysta turned to where she heard the voice coming from and saw Danny and Darkrai coming her way. She just shook her head, "Nope, I just got here not that long ago."

"That's good, I thought I kept you waiting," Danny told her as he stopped not that far away from her barely panting.

"Man, you sure can move fast when you want to," the Dark-Type panted trying to catch his breath as he stopped by the Halfa.

"You'll have to be to survive what I have to go through almost every day back home," Danny stats smirking as he looked back at the Nightmare Pokemon.

"And what do you mean by that?" Crysta asked with a tilt of her head a bit confused on what he meant by that.

"Ah, it's nothing," the Halfa answered quickly, "So, do you want to lead the way to the cafe you were telling me about?"

"Yeah, let's go!" Crysta agreed deciding not to question him any further and lead the way. After a bit, she decided to ask, "So how have things been since the last time we met?"

"All I can say is that it had been interesting," Danny tells her as he waved to a few people here and there that he recognized or waved to him.

"So you been here before?" Crysta asked as she notices the waving going on around her.

"Yeah, I stayed here for about week not that long ago," the Halfa explained.

"Doing what?" the journalist asked further hoping to get some answer.

"Just some personal stuff that I don't want to talk about right now," Danny confessed not wanting to reveal too much about his situation.

"Ok..." Crysta replied, she was finding Danny to be even more mysterious by the second. After a bit, she stops in front of a brown wooden building, outside there were picnic tables with umbrellas, double glass doors and a sign above them that read, 'Evolution Magic' in purple lettering surrounded by different colored stone. "Here we are. This is the place I was telling you about."

Danny stared up at the building and blinked a few times, "How come I don't remember seeing this here? I'm sure I would remember a place like this."

"Well, the last time we were here, we were kind of busy showing you around and teaching you a bit about this world to really look around," Darkrai pointed out, even he didn't remember seeing this here.

"Yeah I guess you're right," the Halfa agreed, "We were kind of busy when we were here last."

Crysta just stared at the two in curiosity. Did Danny actually understand what the Dark-Type was saying? Deciding to save the questioning about the strange boy for another time, she made her way inside, "Come on, let's head inside."

Nodding in agreement, the two followed the journalist and took in what the building looked like on the inside. There were tables and chairs set up all around the room, a staircase off to the side leading up to a balcony that overlooked the room, and a counter was near the back that had many different kinds of foods and evolutions items on display inside the built-in display case. As they walked towards the counter, Danny seemed to notice that most of the people were looking their way and the Halfa had an idea as to why. "Man, I'm so glad I returned Luna to her Healball before we came here," he stats mentally in relief.

"Yeah, I don't think she would be able to manage all the attention sent her way very well," Darkrai replied mentally as he remembers the last time his sister had tons of attention on her which was a story for another time.

"Welcome to Evolution Magic. How may I help you?" the cashier asked as the group came up to the counter.

"Three hot chocolates and two dozen double trouble chocolate chip cookies please," Crysta ordered, she then turned to the two behind her, "Is that ok with you two?"

"Yeah, it's fine with us," Danny agreed as Darkrai nodded his answer.

Crysta smiled as she paid for the items and with Danny's help, brought them up to the balcony that overlooked the room. Once they found a table, set everything down and had a seat, the journalist asked, "So did you catch any new Pokemon since I saw you last?"

"Yeah, not long after we parted I managed to get a new team member," the Halfa answered as he took a sip of his drink.

"Really who?" the girl asked as she took a bite out of a cookie.

"It's um... It's.." Danny started to stuttered unsure how to say it without causing the girl to freak out, "A Cresselia named Luna."

"Really? You got yourself another Legendary?" she cried out in shock not expecting that kind of answer, "Can I see her?"

"Maybe later, I don't think it will be a good idea to let her out here with so many people around," the Halfa explained as he rubbed the back of his neck as Darkrai reached for a cookie, "But what about you? What have you been up to lately?"

"Oh! I was able to send in the article about you to my publisher and you will never guess what happened! They were so excited about it that they decided to mention you two on the cover!" Crysta exclaimed, "They were a bit upset though with the fact that I didn't get a picture of you two for they could make it the cover image, but they respected your wishes though."

"R-Really?" the Halfa asked glad that they accepted his wishes but inwardly groaned for making it on the cover page once again. What was it with him with making it onto the cover of things? This was a WHOLE DIFFERENT WORLD for crying out loud as well.

"Yup," she replied smirking as she pulled something out of her bag and pass it to the Ghost Boy, "Also this is for you."

"What is it?" the Nightmare Pokemon asked as he looked over the Halfa shoulder to see what it was.

Danny took the object and saw that it was a magazine with a picture of an underwater scene with different kinds of water type Pokemon, "Pokemon Secrets," was written near the top in big bright ocean blue lettering. Off in the bottom left corner of the page was silhouettes of a trainer and what looked like a Darkrai with, "A Trainer and a Darkrai. A Nightmare Journey? Or a Nightmare Team? Read to Find Out," in white letters on top of it. He then looked through the pages until the Halfa found the page that had their article in it which included a bigger version of the silhouettes on the cover and beside it was an article with what he told Crysta.

"What do you think?" Crysta asked quite excited about this.

"It looks great," Danny commented, then something caught his attention for the silhouette of the trainer, "But why does it look like it has my hair?"

"I may have told them what your hair style looked like for that part," Crysta replied nervously as she scratched a little at her cheek.

"At least they didn't catch my bad side," Darkrai commented as he took the magazine and looked it over.

"And how can they catch your bad side?" the Halfa asked as he looked at the Dark-Type a bit confused.

"Because they can't with this," the Dark-Type answered smirking as he handed it back to Danny.

"Anyways, thanks," Danny told Crysta as he put the magazine away in his bag.

"No problem!" the journalist replied happily as she picked up another cookie, "Anyways, where are you heading next if you don't mind me asking?"

"Well after we visit some friends here, we are going to head over to Oreburgh City to try and win a Gym Badge there," Danny explained as he took another sip of his drink as Darkrai grabbed another cookie.

"Really? Is it going to be your first?"

"Not really. It's going to be my second," Danny confessed as he rubbed the back of his neck a bit embarrass, "I just finished getting my first one at the gym in Canalave City. I was mostly helping Roark out with bringing his father Byron out of a slump to get him back to his regular self. But in the end, since we challenge Byron under the official League rules, we kind of won the Gym Badge at the same time."

"So you managed to defeat the Steel-Type Gym and meet the Rock-Type Gym Leader at the same time? Wow, that's amazing! I've heard that Canalave City's Gym is a tough one to beat being a Steel-Type one after all."

"It was only easy because of the great team I had."

"All you did was bark orders," Darkrai chuckled.

Danny just glared at the Nightmare Pokemon in turn as he mentally said, "Well I would have gone in myself if a certain secret wasn't on the line."

"If you say so," the Dark-Type replied with as he rolled his eyes.

Crysta stared at Darkrai for a bit before asking, "Hey Danny, I've noticed how Darkrai doesn't like to be in his Pokeball and I was wondering why he doesn't hide in your shadow instead so he won't be seen?"

"In my shadow?" the Halfa asked never knowing Darkrai could do that. Was he like Shadow without the bad luck effect?

"Yeah, from what I read about Darkrai, they are able to hide inside shadows to escape or to just to hide in general," Crysta explained to him.

"Really?" Danny asked as he took in the information, then turned his attention to the Nightmare Pokemon beside him munching away on a cookie, "Why don't you hide in my shadow?"

Darkrai looked over at the Halfa and blinked a few times as he took in the question, "I don't because I just don't want to and don't see the point in doing so right now."

"I didn't realize it was this late! I have to get going!" Crysta cried out as she started to gather her things and drink, "I have an interview that I have to get to in a bit and I don't want to be late! See you later Danny, Darkrai and keep the leftover cookies," then she went racing off.

"See you later Crysta and good luck with whoever the interview is with!" the Halfa called out to his friend and then turned to Darkrai, "Come on, lets head over to the Internation Police Headquarters."

"Do we have to? We just got here." the Dark-Type complained as he held his hot chocolate in his hands.

"Don't you want to see if they discovered anything yet?" Danny asked smirking knowing that this will get his attention.

"Good point," Darkrai agreed as he got up and floated over to Danny who was gathering up the leftover cookies putting them in his bag for later.

"Let's get going then," the Halfa stats as he put his backpack on, grabbed his hot chocolate and then they headed out.

Chapter 8: The Gym Battle that Awaits!


After a bit of flying and Darkrai calming down from the scare he got from the Halfa, they landed by some trees outside of Caralave City, out of view of anyone in the area for Danny to transform back to human. Once he was back to human, the group headed into the city, "So Luna, do you want to go into your Pokeball when we are in public?"

"I would like to stay out, thank you very much," the Lunar Pokemon stats holding her head up high, "But thank you for asking though."

"No problem," Danny smiled in reply, but in his head, he was saying, "Great, now I'm going to have more people staring at me. How come where ever I go now, I have pretty much everyone staring at me?"

"Hey, just be glad they don't know who or what you are here," Darkrai tells him mentally as he smirks, "Because I'm sure you won't just be getting stares sent your way."

"Good point," the Halfa replied mentally as he remembered all the times he been bombarded by fans and paparazzi alike. He was now even more glad that no one in this world knew who he was.

"You know what," Luna starts to say as she looks between her brother and the Ghost Boy as they had a silent conversation, "I'm starting to hate that mind link of yours even more than before, but mostly the fact that you two can talk mentally to each other. I have no idea what you two are talking about and can't have a say in it!"

"You're not the only one," Danny grunts as he crossed his arms, "I can barely have a private thought or rant," he then jerked his thumb pointing at the Dark-Type beside him, "without your brother here listening in."

"Then don't think so loud," the Nightmare Pokemon retorts smirking.

Danny then stops and turned to face Darkrai giving him the 'Really?' look, "Really? Because I'm sure you would be able to hear them no matter how quite they are."

"I know," the Dark-Type replied happily smirking even more.

"Then I hope you enjoy the Ghost Wail if I ever try using it mentally," Danny tells him smirking evilly.

Darkrai paled at that, "You won't dare."

"Try me," Danny answered not letting his evil smirk drop.

Darkrai just glared at the Halfa as Luna just shook her head at how the two antics.

Roark was pacing back and forth around the middle of Caralave City deep in thought, "What am I going to do?" he asked himself, "I have to head back to the gym soon, but I can't leave with my dad the way he is. What am I going to do?"

After a bit with his thoughts going nowhere, he decided to look up in a random direction and stopped pacing in surprise from what he saw. Walking in his direction was a wild black haired boy with icy blue eyes wearing a white t-shirt with a red trim and oval on the chest, baggy blue pants, red and white sneakers and had a black and white backpack. But the shocking thing about the boy was that there was a Darkrai and a Cresselia following him. He had TWO LEGENDARIES! "That boy has two legendaries? That's unbelievable," the Rock-Type gym leader stats in disbelief, then he got an idea, "I wonder if he will be able to help," he then went racing over to the boy.

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


"So what do you two want to do before we head out?" Danny asked as he stopped in the area he believed to be the center of the city.

"How about getting something to eat?" Darkrai suggested as he started to look around for a restaurant or food stand.

"We just had something to eat no that long ago," the Lunar Pokemon reminded her brother.

"I know, but I'm still hungry," Darkrai tells her as he remembered how his last meal turned out.

Danny just couldn't help but shake his head, "Man, you remind me of a friend back home who loves to eat," then he smirked, "But if you are still hungry, I still have some of the Pokefood I made for you earlier in my bag."

"Do they also have the Tamato Berry juice in them?" the Dark-Type asked as he paled a bit once again not wanting his mouth to be on fire again.

"Maybe," Danny answered in a playful tone, he knew that they didn't have it, but he wasn't going to let the Nightmare Pokemon know right now.

"Then I guess I can wait," Darkrai replied not wanting to take the risk and not wanting to take a pick into the Halfa's thoughts in case he tried to use the now feared Ghostly Wail that may or may not work mentally.

Danny couldn't help but smirk at Darkrai's nervousness, he still couldn't believe that he was managing to scare the Nightmare Pokemon. But was he that scary? Well with mouths and mouths and a few years of exchanging pranks with the Fruitloop and pulling pranks in general and fighting other ghost causing him to become more resourceful. With those thoughts in mind, then yeah, he has become scary doing certain things. He then thought of something that he should have asked earlier, "Hey Darkrai? Do you go by anything else?"

"Why do you ask?" the Dark-Type asked curiously as to why the sudden question.

"Well, your sister goes by Luna, so I was wondering if you happened to go by a different name as well," Danny pointed out.

"Well I-"

"Hey!" someone called out interrupting the Dark-Type who sighed a bit in relief which caused the Halfa to raise an eyebrow at the sudden relief.

Danny then turned around in the direction that he heard the voice come from and saw a teen with red hair, brown eyes wearing glasses with a black frame and a red mining helmet with a light on the front coming his way. He was also wearing a grey short-sleeved jacket with the cuffs being a gold coloring with a black ring in the middle with the bottom trim being the same design but with a thinner black line, the jacket was opened revealing a black t-shirt, he was also wearing grey pants with the pockets having a gold band, black rubber boots with the bottom being red and white gloves with the cuffs a gold coloring. "Um, do you need something?"

"Yeah, I was wondering if you could help me with something," the teen answered a bit nervously.

"With what?" the Halfa asked curiously as to what the guy wanted his help with.

"You see, my dad hasn't really been himself lately," the guy started to explain, "He's the gym leader in this city and he hasn't been battling like himself or arguing with me about who loves fossils more or exclaiming his love of holes like he usually does. So far nothing I done had managed to bring him around and when I saw you and your legendary Pokemon, I thought if you challenge him to a gym battle that may get him back to his regular self."

"I won't mind helping you out," Danny told him, "But it is also up to these two, I don't want to make them fight if you don't want to. So do you guys want to help him out?"

"I don't see the problem with helping him out," Luna tells him with a nod so the teen before them could understand her.

"Why not? I'm in the mood for a good fight," Darkrai agreed, "Besides, I been wanting to try these gym battles I heard tons of trainers talking about out."

"Looks like they're in," the Halfa informs the teen before them, "So we will be happy to help you out."

"Thanks, I just hope you will be able to being him back to his old self," the boy tells them, "I'm Roark by the way."

"Danny," the Ghost Boy introduced, "And this is Luna and Darkrai."

(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)(x)


Roark led the group to a huge building that had the bottom part with looked like jagged rocks sticking out, above the rocks looked to be made out of sheets of steel sticking out that had a bit of a purple tint to it with many windows, the roof was that of a giant white oval and on the side of the building starting from the were red beams that were curved outwards as it grew in hight. "Here it is, the Canalave City's Gym!" Roark announced to the group as they stopped a bit away from the gym.

"It's huge!" Danny commented at the sight with wide eyes then gained a look of confusion, "But why does it look like a volcano with smoke coming out of it?"

"It's supposed to look like a fossil on top of a pillar I believe," Roark explained as he looked the building before him over, "But now that you mention it, it does look like a volcano with smoke coming out of it." He then led the group inside to a huge room which turned out to be the battlefield with a man standing in the middle of it, "Dad, I bought you a new challenger," Roark announced as he walked into the room the trio right behind him, "And I'm sure you will have fun battling him."

"That is what you said for the last one," the man now known as Roark's dad grunted.

"I'm sure you will enjoy this one," Roark assured his father and the smirk he was giving could be heard in his voice.

The man then turned around to face his son revealing his appearance. Roark's father had burgundy spiky hair and beard and black eyes. He was wearing a black cloak that was torned up a bit at the bottom with a white sleeveless shirt under it, grey pants with a golden band on the legs a bit above the knees that was a bit torned at the end of the pant legs, a black belt with a silver buckle, black work shoes with golden colored laces, white gloves with a golden colored cuff and was holding a shovel with a black spade. "And what makes you think that th-" he started to say but stopped once he saw who and what was standing or floating by his son.

Roark smirk just grew when he saw his father's reaction for who he brought, "Danny, this is my dad, Byron, the Canalave City's Steel-Type Gym Leader," he then turned his attention back to his father, "So what do you say? Do you accept the challenge?"

The shock expression soon left Byron's face to be replaced by a goofy smile, "Of course! I accept the challenge!"

"And you Danny?" Roark asked, he was glad to see that some of his father's old self had returned.

Danny was a bit surprised at Byron's sudden changed in attitude, but he simply pushed it aside as he smiled, "I was born ready!"

With a nod, they all got into their places for the battle with Roark being the referee, "This is an official Pokemon League Gym Battle against Byron the Gym Leader against Danny the challenger! The rules are simple, it will be a three on three battle with the challenger only being able to substitute his Pokemon. Now, let the Gym Battle begin!"

"Wait? A three on three battle?" Danny cried out in surprised not expecting it, "I only have two Pokemon!"

"Then I guess this is just going to be even more interesting!" Bryon called out as he sent out his first Pokemon, "Come on out Bronzor!"

Out of the Pokeball came a flash of light and out of the light came a plate-like creature. The creature was that of a teal circular flat plate with three dark teal orbs on the top and bottom of its rim, an inner darker teal circle in the plate with two yellow eyes, a teal orb nose and two smaller teal circles above and below the eyes. The Pokemon now known as Bronzor stared at Danny and the Pokemon at his side, "So this is my opponent? Let's see what he got."

Before Danny even had the chance to take out his Pokedex to see what this Pokemon was, Luna made her way over to Danny, "If you don't mind, I will like to go first."

"Sure," Danny agreed with a nod as Luna made her way out onto the field, "I choose Luna as my first Pokemon!"

"The first battle is Byron's Bronzor verse Danny's Cresselia! Now let the battle commence!" Roark announced and in his mind, he was saying, "How can he only have two legendaries? Shouldn't he have more Pokemon on him beside those two? How was he even able to get those two without any other Pokemon?"

"Danny, some of my sister's moves are Moonlight, a move that heals her, Mist, it just like what it name is, Aurora Beams, it's a colorful beam of icy energy, Future Sight, a move that takes time to activate, Psychic, a move that she uses her psychic energies to attack or to control her surroundings and Psycho Cut, a move that creates blades of compressed psychic energies that are sent flying at your opponents," Darkrai quickly explained mentally.

"Thanks for the heads up," Danny thanked mentally, then called out, "Ok, Luna, let's start this off with Mist!"

"Well do," Luna replied as her eyes glowed light blue and a thick mist started to roll in.

"Do you really think that this mist will stop me?" Bronzor asks as he tries to see through the thick mist that surrounded him.

Just then a silhouette appeared before the Bronze Pokemon as the Halfa called out, "Now use Psycho Cut!" As soon as that move was called out, pink blades of psychic energy came flying out of the silhouette hitting Bronzor straight on sending him flying backwards a bit, but once he regained his balance the silhouette was gone.

Seeing that the mist was going to prove difficult to see through and battle in, the Steel-Type Gym Leader called out, "Bronzor, spin at top speed to blow away the mist away!"

"On it!" Bronzor called out as he started spinning at a quick pace causing the mist in the room to disappear revealing Luna floating not that far away in front of Danny.

"Man, I thought that would last a bit longer," the Halfa commented at the sight of the mist disappearing on them.

"At least we were able to get a few hits in undetected," Luna pointed out.

"Bronzor, use Flash Cannon!" Byron called out to his Steel/Psychic-Type Pokemon.

"Have a taste of this!" Bronzor cried out as a bright ball of light appeared in front of him and shot a bright beam of light at Luna.

"Luna dodged it quickly!" Danny called out quickly not wanting to see his new friend get hurt.

"You better watch where the attack is heading," Darkrai warned as he moved out of the way as Danny sent him a strange look.

When the Ghost Boy went to look back at the battle, he eyes went wide as he saw the attack coming right at him once Luna was out of the way. Doing his best not to turn intangible to dodge the attack, he drove to the ground to let it fly past him. "That was a close one," Danny says to himself as he stood back up once he was sure the danger passed over him, "Note to self, watch out for flying energy blasts."

"Do you really need to make a mental note to watch out for energy blasts?" Darkrai asked as he returned back beside Danny.

"You'll be surprised about what I make mental notes for," Danny replied with a shrug, "Anyways what does Future Sight do again?"

"It's a move that takes a bit to activated once used," the Dark-Type Pokemon explained again.

"That should do," Danny says then called out, "Ok, Luna use your Future Sight then follow it up with some Aurora Beams!" Luna nodded in reply as her eyes glowed blue for a moment before fading away, then she opened her mouth and started firing beams of colorful icy energy.

"Bronzor dodge those attacks and use Extrasensory!" Byron called out when he saw the Aurora Beam coming towards his Pokemon.

In reply, Bronzor dodged the attacks sent it way with a few of the attacks grazing it now and then and dodging them by a hair. Durning the time between dodging the attacks, the Bronze Pokemon's eyes glowed a golden color as it shot a rainbow beam of psychic energy at Luna. Seeing the attacks coming her way, Luna dodged the beams of psychic energy sent her way with a few grazing her now and then. After a bit, both fired a beam of rainbow energy at each other that ended up crashing into each other creating an explosion causing the two to be pushed back towards their trainers. Once each Pokemon regained their balance and before Bronzor could make another move, Luna smirked and said, "Now."

Bronzor and Danny stared at the Lunar Pokemon in confusion as they tried to figure out what she meant by that, but all Darkrai did was smirk. "Do you know what she means by that?" Danny mentally asked the Dark-Type in confusion.

"Just look up above Bronzor and you will see what she meant by that," the Nightmare Pokemon replied mentally as he continued to smirk.

Danny followed Darkrai's instructions and stared up in surprise for what he saw. Up in the air above the Steel/Psychic-Type Pokemon appeared what seemed to be a wormhole that reminded Danny of a Ghost Portal, but this one was a mixture of purple and blue and seemed to sucking inwards. After a bit of nothing happening after the Ghost Zone like portal appeared, a bolt of what seemed like blue lightening came shooting out of it striking Bronzor, knocking the Bronze Pokemon out of the battle. "Bronzor is unable to battle! The victory of this round goes to Danny's Cresselia!" Roark announced as Byron returned his Pokemon to its Pokeball.

"You did a great job Bronzor, you deserve a nice long rest," Byron congratulated as Bronzor entered its Pokeball. Once the Steel/Psychic-Type Pokemon was safely in it's Pokeball, the Steel-Type Gym Leader turned his attention to Danny, "I have to say that this is starting to be one of the most interesting Gym Battles I had in a while. But that doesn't mean I'm going to go easy on you," he then tossed out another Pokeball, "Steelix, it's your turn!"

Out of the Pokeball in a flash of light came a giant silvery-grey snake-like creature, its body seemed to be made out of what looked like boulder-like sections. Three of the boulder-like sections of its body had rock like spikes coming out horizontal to each other and had a spike like tip at the end of its tail. It had a massive head that was mostly made up of its large jaw that had square white teeth inside, it had two sets of ridges under and small square lumps covering its lower jaw. Its eye sockets were slightly deep with red eyes and had two long ridges going from its eyes to the top of its head. "Now, who's ready to rumble?" the Iron Snake Pokemon asked as he took in his surroundings to see who his opponents were.

"Hey, Luna? Do you want to switch out and take a break?" Danny asked even though the Lunar Pokemon didn't look that tired yet.

"That was barely a challenge, let alone a workout," Luna huffed, "I can take care of this round as well. Besides, I can't let my brother get hurt now can I?"

"I can take care of myself sis," Darkrai huffed as he crossed his arms, "And you wonder why I don't stay around long."

"Well I don't want you getting hurt," Luna responded going into overprotective sister mode as she turned to face her brother, "I just want to make sure that you stay safe."

"Well, I always make sure I stay safe whenever I go out and I always return home fine," the Nightmare Pokemon stats trying to defend himself as he was starting to get ticked off with his sister's overprotectiveness, "If that doesn't say anything, then I don't know what does!"

"Why does it seem like I'm in the middle of a conversion that I will have with my sister?" Danny asked no one in particular as he shook his head in disbelief at the argument that had just started.

"Then explain why and how you got captured by those scientists?" the Psychic-Type asked in a know-it-all's voice ignoring the Halfa for the time being, "If you were watching what you were doing and what was going on around you, that may not have happened!"

"I was watching what I was doing and where I going!" the Dark-Type exclaimed ticked off, "It was a one and a billion chance of it happening!"

"But it did happen!" the Lunar Pokemon growled.

Danny's eye started to twitch as he began to become annoyed at the bickering that was happening before him and was doing his best not to let his eyes glow green in annoyance. He was about to step in to break it up, but someone else bet him to it, "Will you two stop that annoying bickering already?!" Steelix cried out sounding very annoyed, "This is no place for a family argument! This is a battlefield meant for battle! If you two want to argue, wait until this is all over and lose to my team!"

The two legendaries glared at each other for a minute, then turned away from each other with a huff, "Fine we will settle this later then."

Luna then turned her attention to the Steelix before her and glared, "And just to let you know, the one who is going to win this battle is us."

Steelix could be heard laughing at that statement, "Really? Let's just see you try."

Off on the sidelines, Darkrai all of a sudden felt a chill go down his spine and when he looked over to where he felt it coming from, he sees the Halfa glaring at him with a hint of green in his eyes, "Y-Y-Yes Danny?"

"We will talk later," Danny told him as he turned his attention back to the battle at hand.

The Nightmare Pokemon just floated there unsure of what he should do. Sure he may be scared of his sister at times, but Danny...he was something else. Darkrai couldn't explain it, but at the moment, he was quite scared of the Halfa before him. Why? It may have something to do with hearing a bit about what the Halfa was capable of, "What have gotten myself into?"

"I'm wondering the same thing for myself," the Ghost Boy responded with other hearing his friend's comment.

"Begin!" Roark called out, he was doing his best to hold it back, but he was excited to see who would win this battle.

"Steelix, start this off with Dragon Breath!" Byron ordered sounded pretty pumped up and Roark couldn't help but smile at hearing his father sounding like his old self.

Without missing a beat, Steelix opened his mouth and fired out a blue beam-like attack that looked to have wind twisting around it, "Have a taste of my Dragon Breath!"

With seeing the attack coming her way, Luna dodged the attacked without even needing to be asked, but it almost hit her by a hair. Danny watched as another Dragon Breath was sent at Luna when an idea came to mind, "Luna, use Future Sight and then use Psychic on the Dragon Breath!"

Somewhat understanding what Danny was getting at, Luna's eyes glowed blue casting the Future Sight and stayed that way as an outline of the same blue surrounded the Dragon Breath. The Iron Snake Pokemon quickly closed his mouth once he saw the Dragon Breath he just fired started to curve around Luna as if it had a mind of its own. "Now what are they up to?" he asked himself.

Byron stared at the battle before him and raised and eyebrow when he saw the Dragon Breath circling around the Cresselia without harming her, "Mmmm, I wonder what he is planning on doing with that."

Seeing the confused look on both the trainer and his Pokemon, Danny knew that it was time to make their move before it was too late, "Now send it right back at them!" In response to the order, Luna sent the Dragon Breath straight back to the one who fired it, hitting the Steel/Ground-Type head on pushing him back a bit.

At seeing what just happened, Darkrai blinked a few times before asking, "What made you think of that combo?"

"I just remember what you said about Psychic earlier and how some of the ghosts back home use something like that to control objects around them to attack," Danny explained to the Nightmare Pokemon.

"So you just are coming up with things based on your ghost fights?" the Dark-Type asked and when he saw the Halfa nod, he adds in, "I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not, but I hope to see you in action at some point during our journey."

"Knowing my luck, that may just happen," the Halfa groaned as he recalled what his luck brought him so far.

Steelix groaned a bit from the damage he took from his own Dragon Breath with the added strength of the Psychic attack added to it, "I should have seen that one coming." Once he was back up and recovered a bit from the attack, he turned his attention to the Lunar Pokemon and glared, "You're are going to pay for that!" Without waiting for another order, he went charging forwards as he fired another blast of the blue Dragon Breath at Luna.

Seeing the attack coming at her at a quick pace, Luna quickly made her way to dodge the attack, but wasn't that fast for it grazed her side a bit. Seeing that a lot of the attack hasn't disappeared yet, the Lunar Pokemon's eyes glowed and took control of the attack once again. When Steelix saw that happening, he creased the attack so the Psychic-Type wouldn't gain any more ammo and was bracing himself for the return of the attack. Lunar saw how the Iron Snake Pokemon was ready for the return of his attack and smirked as she made it circle and spread out around her to form something like a shield.

Byron from his side of the field stared at the Lunar Pokemon forming the Dragon Breath into what appeared to be a Type of shield and started to figure out a plan to get around it. "Use Sandstorm!" Steelix in reply, eyes started to glow blue as a sandstorm started to happen on the battlefield.

To try to stop the sand from going into his eyes without creating an ecto shield, Danny brought his arm above his eyes as Darkrai droved into Danny's shadow without him noticing to escape the sand. "Now where is he?" Danny asked himself as he tried to look through the sand that was blowing around them. After a bit he let out a small growl as he started to feel a bit powerless in this situation, "Man, I wish I could be out there fighting, I feel so useless right now."

"Then why don't you go out there and fight?" Darkrai joked mentally.

"You know I can't do that!" the Halfa mentally snapped back annoyed.

"I was just joking! Can't you take a joke?" the Nightmare Pokemon asked a bit surprise at the Halfa's response.

"I can! But you don't understand! I'm usually the one out there fighting to protect everyone," Danny explained mentally as he did his best to hold back his anger from not being able to do anything at the time being, he really hated this feeling. He then mentally sighed, "Sorry, I just hate sitting off on the sidelines unable to do anything to help. Before I thought that it was great being able to set off on the sidelines and let other take care of everything as I set back and relax. But after some chain of events, I can't stand sitting on the sidelines anymore, unable to do anything. It's just not my thing, not anymore."

From Danny's shadow, Darkrai stared at the Halfa surprised at what he just learned. From the short time he has been with the boy, he could already tell that the boy acted as if the whole world was on his shoulders and that it was his responsibility to take care of everything. But until now, he didn't realize this is how Danny really felt. Even though you couldn't see it, he was smiling and shaking his head, "You got a huge hero-complex, you know that right?" he asked mentally and could be heard smirking.

"I been told that a lot," Danny commented mentally with a roll of his eyes then gained a serious look as he started thinking of a plan, "Now what can we do to work around this sandstorm? We can't just send the Dragon Breath around the field randomly with the chance of it hitting us or Byron and Roark by accident. Maybe if we...yeah that may just work," he then shouted out, "Luna, try to stay calm and slowly expand the Dragon Breath around you!"

On the field, Luna was freaking out a bit as she tried to find her opponent in the blowing sand around her and barely heard Danny call out to her. After taking a few deep breaths, she managed to calm herself down a bit and put all of her concentration on the Dragon Breath shield around her and started to slowly expand it around her. After a bit, she stopped expanding the Dragon Breath shield when she believed was out far enough and was no was nowhere close to hitting Roark. Then without warning, a glowing ball of white energy came out of nowhere hitting Luna sending her to the ground and causing her to lose her concentration and letting the Dragon Breath dispell into the air. Through the sound of the sandstorm, Byron could be heard calling out, "Now Steelix, use Ice Fang on Cresselia!"

Before Luna had the chance to get back up, Steelix came charging out of nowhere out of the sandstorm and bit down on the Lunar Pokemon with glowing blue fangs. The Psychic-Type cried out in pain as she felt the power of the bite hit her along with the added effect of the freezing cold. Not wanting to hear Luna's cry of pain, Danny quickly called out, "Luna, use Aurora Beam to try and escape!" and at the same time, he was doing his very best to hold himself back from running in there to save her.

Doing her best to deal with the pain, Luna brought her head up slowly, pointed her head towards the Steel/Ground-Type and fired the colorful beam of icy energy. The beam of icy energy hit Steelix right in the head catching him off guard and causing him to let his grip go on the Lunar Pokemon. With her new found freedom, she quickly made her way away from the Iron Snake Pokemon and with the vision she barely had she made her way over to where Danny was. "Luna, do you think you can go on?" Danny asked in concern as he did his best not to go charging out there and take down what caused his friend's pain.

"Yeah, I think so," Luna panted as she answered, "But we have to do something about this sandstorm. If this keeps up, it's going to make it even more difficult to battle in and get damaged at the same time because of it." Her eyes then started to glow blue and the sandstorm disappeared, "There, that much better. Let's get this over with," the Lunar Pokemon stats as her eyes return back to normal and glared at the Steel/Ground-Type as Darkrai turned back to his place beside Danny before the Ghost Boy could notice he was gone.

"Now Steelix, finish this off with Flash Cannon!" the Steel-Type Gym Leader called out smiling.

Steelix opened his mouth creating a ball of light inside it and was about to fire it when the vortex appeared above him striking the Steel/Ground-Type with blue lightening. By the psychic lightning hitting Steelix when he was about to fire the Flash Cannon created an explosion and a huge smoke cloud. When the smoke cloud cleared, it revealed the Steel/Ground-Type laying on the ground with swirls in his eyes, "Steelix is unable to battle! Cresselia wins!" Roark announced.

"Great job Steelix, take a nice rest," Byron congratulated as the Iron Snake returned to his Pokeball. He then turned to look back at Danny and laughed, "I haven't had this much fun in such a long time! But I'm not going down with without a fight!" He then tossed out his last and final Pokemon, "Bastiodon, show them your strength!"

The Pokeball opened up releasing a flash of light that formed into the Steel-Type Gym leader's final Pokemon that was cream yellow and gray and looked a bit like a cross between a Zuniceratops and a bulldozer. It had a dark gray head that looked like a square castle wall with four yellow window like spots outline with a darker gray, three spikes on top and two larger light gray spikes on the corners. It had a triangle nose extended from the middle of its shield-like head down to around its mouth and seemed to be pierced by a light gray horizontal spike, it had had four tusk like light gray spikes curving upwards from its jaw and cream yellow eyes a bit under the spike coming out of his nose. It had a cream yellow body with dark gray plating on the top of its back with light gray spikes coming out of its back, dark gray plating from its feet to its shoulders, light gray toes and dark gray plated tail. The Rock/Steel-Type looked around to see who his opponents are, "Who ready to party?"

Before the battle could start, the Halfa called out, "Luna come back and let Darkrai take over!"

Luna turned to look at the Ghost Boy, "No! I will continue to fight! I will not let my brother be a part of this battle!"

"Luna, you look as if you are about to drop at any moment, you need to rest," Danny told her sternly. He didn't want to do it, but he would return Luna to her Healball just to get her to rest.

Luna was about to argue back about allowing her to continue to battle, but once she saw the boy's eyes she stopped. She saw worried, concern, the need to protect and much more written in the Halfa's eyes which caused her to stop in her tracks because she felt as if all those feelings were aimed right her. She then looked the boy over and saw that the Halfa looked to be using a lot of his will power just to stand there and not rush out onto the field to help her. She stared at the boy for a bit then sighed, "Fine," she then floated over to the sidelines by Danny and when she went by Darkrai, she whispered, "Be careful, watch your back and good luck."

"I will," the Nightmare Pokemon assured his sister as he floated out onto the battlefield.

"So you are our next opponent?" Bastiodon asked as he took in his opponent, "This is going to be an interesting battle, expectantly against a Legendary Pokemon."

"I could say the same thing," the Dark-Type replied as he took his place on the field and got ready to battle.

"Let the battle commence!" Roark called out expecting that this battle wasn't going to last very long even against Steel-Types.

Remembering what Darkrai's moves were and wanting to end this quickly, Danny called out, "Darkrai, use Dark Void!"

"Once again, no need to yell," the Dark-Type retorts as he puts his hands together creating a purple and black orb and fired it at the Shield Pokemon before him. The orb flew at a quick pace and hit Bastiodon before he could dodge in the chest causing a pink sphere to form around him. After a few seconds, the sphere disappeared as the Rock/Steel-Type fell to the ground fast asleep. Not long after the Rock/Steel-Type was fast asleep, the Nightmare Pokemon's eyes started to glow blue and Bastiodon started to thrash around in his sleep. At this sight, once his eyes went back to normal, Darkrai couldn't help but sigh, "Man, I really hate this Bad Dream ability at times."

"What do you mean?" Danny asked mentally to not cause suspicion.

"It's an ability that causes people and Pokemon in the area around me to have nightmares when they are asleep," the Dark-Type grumbled mentally not very pleased with the ability, "It makes it quite hard to sleep somewhere when there are others sleeping and you don't want to give them nightmares."

Danny just blinked when he heard that, "Really? Then how come I only suffered from a serious nightmare once since we started traveling together," he says mentally then quickly added in, "Not that I'm complaining or anything. But now that we are on the topic, was it you who caused it?"

Darkrai just shook his head as he answered mentally, "No, I don't think I was the one who caused it to happen. It may be our connection or something, but I've noticed that my ability doesn't seem to effect you in the slightest. But trust me, after going through that one nightmare, I hope that the ability will never effect you because I don't think I'll be able to live through it again!"

"You and me both," the Halfa agreed mentally and hoped that Darkrai would never figure out the meaning behind it.

Byron stared at his opponents as he watched what seemed to be a silent conversation going on between trainer and Pokemon. It was interesting to watch because something like this, you don't see every day, but by the looks the Cresselia was giving, it was something she was used to. Deciding that he will wonder how they seemed to be having a mental conversation later, he turned his attention back to his Bastiodon who was still sound asleep, "Bastiodon, wake up! We got a battle to win!" but the Rock/Steel-Type remained fast asleep.

"Darkrai, use your Ominous Wind and keep it up!" the Halfa called out as he ignored the mental protest about not yelling attacks.

The Nightmare Pokemon's eyes then glowed blue and threw his arms forwards as he created purple colored wind that went flying towards the sleeping Shield Pokemon. Throughout the attack, the Shield Pokemon stayed fast asleep until he opened his eyes waking up and when the Rock/Steel-Type realized what was going on, he jumped to his feet to receive a face full of the attack. From from not expecting the sudden attack, Bastiodon stumbled back a bit as he heard his trainer yell out, "Great, you're awake! Now use Iron Defense and follow it up with Ancient Power!"

Bastiodon's body gained a faint blue outline that faded away as what looked like light reflected down his face. As soon as the blue glow disappeared, it was soon replaced by a white glow causing a silvery orb to appeared before him that was soon fired at Darkrai. The silvery orb went flying towards the Dark-Type who was able to dodge it with ease, "Ha! You miss!"

"I won't miss next time," the Shield Pokemon growled.

"Flash Cannon!" Byron called out and in response, Bastiodon created a white ball of light before him and fired a beam of white light from it.

Seeing the attack coming straight at Darkrai and believing that yelling out would take too long, Danny mentally called out, "Darkrai use your Dark Pulse to cancel out that attack then fire it again to finish this battle."

"It's about time," the Dark-Type replied mentally he got ready to fire a purple and black attack.

"About ending this" the Halfa mentally asked confused.

"No, that you finally called out a move mentally," the Nightmare Pokemon replied mentally but a smirk could be heard in it.

"Really?" Danny mentally asked a little bit surprised at the answer

"Surprised?"

"No, it just sounded like something I would say."

Darkrai just rolled his eyes as he threw his arm forwards as he released rings of twisting purple glowing black energy. The dark energy crashed into the oncoming attack causing an explosion and a giant cloud of smoke. Bastiodon ended his attack believing that his attack managed to make it threw, but ended up being hit square on by the dark energy that came out of the cloud of smoke. The dark energy was powerful enough to push Bastiodon backwards hard against the wall knocking him out. Roark looked over at the fainted Pokemon for a moment then over to Danny and Darkrai, "Bastiodon is unable to battle meaning that Danny and his Darkrai are the victors of the Canalave City's Gym Battle!"

The Halfa stared there in shock, "We won?" when he was sure that it was real, he gained a big goofy smile, "We won!"

"Apparently so," Darkrai commented as he made his way back over to Danny and Luna.

"You were great!" Luna exclaimed as she nuzzled up to her brother, but after a bit she backed up a little and looked down a bit in embarrassment and sadness, "And sorry about thinking that you weren't able to defend yourself," she then let out a sigh as she turned her head away a bit, "I guess ever since I found out that I may have lost you forever, it felt as if I lost a part of myself. But then when I found out that you were back, even though you were connected to our new friend here, I just became even more protective over you."

Darkrai looked at his sister and saw how upset she looked, seeing her like this was stinging his heart. With a small sigh, he made his way over to his sister, he enveloped her in a hug which surprised the Lunar Pokemon who was no expecting it, "Don't be so hard on yourself about this, ok? I would probably be acting the same way if I found out something happened to you."

Luna then turned her head to look at her brother, "So you're not mad at me?"

"Why would I be?" Darkrai asked smirking, "You were just looking out for me."

"Looks like they finally made up," Danny stats smirking watching the two. He then looked over to Byron who looked more lively than before, "And by the looks of it, Byron looks much better as well. Looks like we did our job."

Roark made his way over to the trio, "Danny, thanks for your help with bringing my dad back to his old self," he then looked over to his father who was heading over to Bastiodon, "I don't think I ever saw him that excited about something besides fossils before, even holes." He sighed a little knowing what may happen if he didn't leave soon and turned back to Danny, "Well I better get going before we end up arguing about who loves fossils more when we see each other. Besides, I have my own gym to get back to anyways, I don't want to keep any of the challenges waiting right?"

Danny just stared at Roark in surprised not expecting that, "Wait! You're a Gym Leader too?"

"I guess I forgot to mention that didn't I," Roark laughed nervously as he rubbed the back of his head.

"You think?" The Halfa replies smirking.

"Then let me properly introduce myself then. I am Roark, the Gym Leader of the Oreburgh City's Gym," Roark reintroduced himself, "So, I guess if you continue to challenge the Sinnoh Gyms, I'll be more than willing to accept your challenge," he then looked over to the clock that was hanging high on the wall, "Well I better get going if I want to catch the blimp to head back home."

"Thanks, I'll think about it and good luck with your Gym Battles," the Ghost Boy tells the Rock-Type Gym Leader not letting his smile drop.

Byron off to the side by his Bastiodon, watched as his son left the building without saying his good-byes. It hurt him a bit at seeing this, but at the same time, he understood. He and his son haven't gotten along for a long while now, so him leaving without saying anything would probably stop any arguments from happening. "You did great out there Bastiodon, you deserve a nice long rest."

"Bast," Bastiodon says before returning to his Pokeball in a red light.

Byron then slowly got back onto his feet and made his way over to the trainer who just defeated him, "That was the greatest battle I had in a while! And thanks to you, I was able to get my battling spirit back!" He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a metal object that looked a bit like a triangle. The badge-like object looked to be three silver pickaxe, one pointed straight up, another pointed to the bottom left corner and another in the bottom right corner with their handles combining in the middle and the three spaces in between the pickaxes were colored a bronze color to look like stones. "This is the Mine Badge, it proves that you have defeated the Canalave City's Gym."

At the sight of the Mine Badge, Danny put his hands up in protest, "I can't take that. Really I can't. We just did this to help you out."

Byron just smirked as he took one of the Halfa's outstretched hands and placed the badge in it, "Then take it as a thank-you gift for helping me out. Plus, if you ever plan on entering the Sinnoh League, you will be needing it."

"Thanks then," Danny replies with unsure what else to say as he accepts the Gym Badge. He was about to ask what the Sinnoh League was when the Steel-Type Gym Leader interrupted him.

"Now I better be off! With me mopping around for so long has caused me to fall back on my fossil finding. There must be tons of fossils out there that are waiting for me to find them!" the fossil loving Steel-Type Gym Leader then went charging out of the room with his shovel in hand.

The gang watched as the Gym Leader took off in such a rush towards the door that it looked like he would have run into a wall if he wasn't watching where he was going. "Strange guy," the Dark-Type commented, "I don't think I ever saw someone obsessed over something that much before. Well, maybe Luna."

"Hey!" the Lunar Pokemon cried out not pleased with what her brother said, "I'm am not obsessed with anything!

"What about being obsessed with making sure I am safe?" the Nightmare Pokemon asked smirking.

"That is me looking out for your well-being," the Psychic-Type stats trying to defend herself.

"So Danny, do you know anyone that is over obsessed with something?" Darkrai asked the Halfa ignoring his sister's statement.

Danny thought about it, but it didn't take him very long to think of someone or many that were over obsessed with something, "More then you may be able to believe," then he sent a small glare at the Dark-Type, "And don't even think about looking through my mind to find out who they may be."

"Fine," the Nightmare Pokemon huffed, it wasn't like he was planning on doing that...ok, maybe he was, "But can you at lease tell use what one of them was obsessed with that may have been the most annoying."

"One that is the most annoying? That would be hard to do," Danny stats as he thought about four of the most annoying obsessions that the people and ghost alike had.

"What are they?" Darkrai pushed hoping that he would get an answer from the Halfa.

"Maybe another time," the Halfa stats as he heard the Nightmare Pokemon grumble in disappointment for not finding out, "Right now, we have to get you two to the Pokemon Center to get healed up before we get going," then as an afterthought added, "And find out what this Sinnoh League is."

"If I remember correctly from what I heard from trainers, it's a thing that many strong trainers who had collected all the gym badges in Sinnoh to gather at to find out who the Sinnoh League Champion would be," Darkrai informed them as he thought about.

"I believe I heard the same thing somewhere as well," Luna added in to back up her brother.

Darkrai then took the Mine Badge out of the Ghost Boy's hands, "So this is what one of the Sinnoh Badges look like," then after a bit of staring at it, says, "I won't mind fighting in more of these Gym Battles to get more of these things and test my strength."

A blue glow surrounded the badge and floated over to Luna for she could have a closer look at it, "It does look cool and I agree with Darkie, I won't mind battling in those other gyms. If they were anything like this one, they will be easy."

"I don't think all the gyms will be the same as this one," Danny told her sweatdropping at the Lunar Pokemon overconfidence as he took his gym badge back and pocketed it away, "And I guess it settled then, we are going after all the Gym Badges and try to win the Sinnoh League."

"And maybe the other gyms from other regions?" Luna suggested hopefully.

"Maybe," the Halfa respawned with unsure if he would be around that long for that, "Now come on, let's get you two the Pokemon Center," and with that, they headed out of the gym and over to the Pokemon Center for the two to heal up.

"Maybe sometimes they should be sperated?" Phantom suggested, "But then again, how should I know."

"Man, more evil to stop? I thought coming to this island, we would of been able to get away from stopping any kinds of evil," Phantom sighed.

"Hey, at least we don't have them coming at us pretty much everyday," Lunas tells him with a smirk.

Phantom could only laugh, "I guess you're right. I wonder how he and his friends are doing. But how are we going to contact Mordred? Man, why couldn't he have stayed a bit longer?"

(Hey, can I make some references to the story that the guys I'm doing good are from?)

Phantom couldn't help help but laugh, "Sorry, but I just remembered someone else that doesn't give up no matter what, " then he gained a serious look, "Who is this evil?"

Both Phantom and Luna looked at at the being not sure what was going on, but Phantom put his guard up with the feeling of touble about to happen.

Cronus only shook his head knowing that they had tons of work to do to return the humans back to their rightful homes. With the help of his sister, they started returning the humans to where they belonged through portals.

Phantom floated down to the ground and noticed a Pokemon he didn't recognized, "Who's that?"

A laugh could be heard as a blue portal appeared out of nowhere and Cronus floated out of it, "I was wondering when you would have noticed us."
Just then a pink portal appeared and Samaira came out of it, "And we were just waiting for you to ask," then she looked at Mordred curiously, "And you do realize that most of humans that appear in the world are from portal that you left opened right?"
"Phantom, I see that you gotten a bit better at using that move even though you only have used it a few times since learning it," Cronus congradulated looking over at the floating Darkrai, "And you can stop actting like you can't move now."
"Um thanks," the Dark-Type says as he rubbed the back of his neck in a bit of embarrassment, it was a trait he had picked up from one of his friends.

"And how do we let human invade your world?" Phantom asked from his spot in the sky, "It not like we have any control over them. Trust me, I know."
Luna just shook her head at what just happened.

Another set of eyes somewhere else, watched this all happening and just his head at Mordred mistaken someone as someone else.

Luna looked over the picture, "Nope, that's not me. Look at the coloring, does that look like me?"

"And I don't think we were around when the first Garatina was around," Phantom added in started to feel being able to move again.

Luna just stared at Moeded with an unimused look, "Really? I don't recall killing anyone."
Phantom couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Really? Sweet Tooth over there is too sweet to kill anyone," then he laughed at what he just said.

"Yes, I'm a Cresselia and the name Luna," Luna answered dryly not very impressed that this guy just realized what Pokemon she was, "And in case you didn't realize, the one that just blew you away, is a Darkrai named Phantom."

Luna then grabbed ahold of Mordred with her Psychic, "So in another way of putting it, you were removing a killer? But doesn't that make you a killer?
Phantom just floated there regaining his energy, "Man, I forgot about the side effect of that move."

"Actually, it is still wrong," Phantom comments appearing right behind Mordred, "General life was still taken just because you wanted more power. Sure he may have known that that may happen, but it is still unfair to him." Then without wasting another second, Phantom's eyes glowed as he let out a roar that distorts time around them and sending Mordred flying backwards.

"Really? You killed your own general just for more power? That is just sad and wrong," Phantom states coming out of the shadows by one of the spawn knocking it out then disappearing into the shadows once again.
Luna, "Why would someone tale their own team members out anyways? It doesn't seem like the right way to win a battle," Luna comments as she lifts tons of the Spawn into the air using Psychic and throwing them into the ground, rocks and trees, "Do you think those two will show up?"
"Nah, last time I saw them, Clocky told me that he will only appear only if he was needed to make things right and knowing Demi, she may be in another world or something up to no good to mess with time in that area to ignory your brother," Phantom answered as he came out of another shadow knocking out some more Spawn and disappearing into it again.

Phantom just shrugged, "Oh well, now I don't have to worry about doing something I don't want to do," he then disappeared into the shadows.
Luna just smirked, "Looks like he has a plan."

"If we start to get out numbered, I can put them to sleep," Phantom assured them, "Even though I hate the idea, I'll use my ablity to cause them to inflict damage to them in their sleep."
"And I will do my best not to stop the nightmares from happening," Luna added in.
