Shade fluttered around, slowly exercising her wing. "Damn this." Shade complained after she fell for the hundredth time.

Bellatrix dried her eyes on her sleeves. "I think I can help explain everything." She said, standing up. "I am Bellatrix Souldew, one of the few living first gen binaries, and this whole 'collision of the worlds' thing isn't the first time it's happened."

[And I'm just like, casually resisting the urge to post while letting others catch up o3o]

Calypso reluctantly opened her eyes and lowered her head away from the warm sun to face the others. "What Bellatrix says is true," She said, her voice still tinged with that ancient accent. "And as for Analissa," She glanced at the young Rayquaza Binary, "I am merely speaking through her. This is her Binary form, and as the Binary of Jirachi, she is closely linked with Hypnos, whom I believe you know as Darkrai. My consciousness was merely in a deep sleep for the past few centuries, if you follow. My former body, however, is gone," She shrugged. "I am now but a mere spirit, being supported by my own descendant's body."

Her tone was a little wistful, but Calypso shook her sadness away. Her time had long since passed, and it was soon time for her to face death. "Back to business," She quickly added. "Some of the information I hold cannot be spoken, for you will have to learn those on your own. I cannot assist in you much in that department," She grimaced, "but I do still remember how to fight. I was C-" She hesitated at Callum's name before continuing, "Callum's right hand and one of the best fighters. I don't think Bellatrix remembers, but I took down Kenta and Miloni on my own."

She glanced at her old friend. "You do remember those two, right? They were, ah - what is the modern term? A pain in the arse."

Turning back to the others, she hastily explained. "Two extremely powerful gijinkas of Dialga and Palkia. Back in our time, gijinkas were extremely rare and more powerful. Legendary gijinkas were even more so, and the gods put us to the test by forcing us to fight the two most powerful of their generation - Kenta and Miloni."

"Of course I remember them! Those butts." Bellatrix said. She smiled as she remembered punching Kenta in the face when they first met. Even though the punch had done nothing to help them, it was a fond memory of hers, mainly because everyone was laughing when she had done it. She was known as the passive death weapon by majority of her team, mainly because of her "psycho mode," as they called it. "Our teammates were Callum, Rosa, Aeneas, Markus, and Minerva." She said. "Binaries of Arceus, Lugia, Darkrai, Tornadus, and Xerneas respectively. Aeneas and Calypso were in looovvveee." Bellatrix said with a flushed face, remembering her relationship with Callum. He was always the best at making her laugh, or at least, up until his heroic death. "Me, Minerva, and Calypso

"Wait, wait, holder up a sec. You said Minerva was one of your friends, right? As in, Minerva, who might or might not be sworn to maidenhood by Atermis, godess of the moon and the hunt? Because their names are short of the same and the girl at the mountain peak [i] did[i] look like someone related to th moon..." Skye trailed off at this point, hoping the answer was yes. If so, their quest to obtain Diana's blood had just became a tad bit easier

(Gah currently typing this in a headphone which auto corrects itself it's so annoying)

---

"So, not to be rude, but what exactly are you even doing here? I mean, I get that Ana's your descendant but why now? Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't want you here, I just need a bit of a clarification." Ateer said, his mind spinning at 100 miles a minute trying to figure out what was happening.

---

(How do you know that the binary you saw is Minerva? You never learned her name, and you do not know that she's sworn to Artemis)
Bellatrix thought back to when she was put into her magic induced coma. She had been taken by Hypnos nearly immediately after her and her friends saved the worlds from collision. She didn't remember why she was taken at all actually, now that she thought about it, but she had an idea about a possible reason. "I honestly have no idea why we were sent here. Maybe it was to help you guys out this time? I'm not actually sure. A friend of mine is actually the only reason I'm still alive right now actually." Her face turned a startling shade of crimson as she remembered her last moments with Callum before going off to save the world.

---

"Well, we can figure this out later. We need to go up to the peak of the mountain to get the Blood of Diane for Riona. We're losing daylight guys," Ateer snapped back into reality.

---

''We did find someone at the mountain peak. All I can remember is the person's huge horns, and that golden bull that tried to kill us.'' - Crono was silent for some time, mainly for thinking about the situation. ''We should get the blood really soon, we wasted too much time!'' - the ancient Binary made him forget about the main quest he needs to do.

---

Calypso turned her eyes towards the Lugia Binary. "Ateer, was it?" Her eyes flickered from purple to orange for a split second. "You look an awful lot like your sister," She murmured, feeling a pang of nostalgia.

She managed to tear her eyes off the boy, instead focusing on her old friend. Raising an eyebrow, she put her hand to her hip and cocked her head to a side. "'Friend', huh? You were always the most innocent of the group. More like, you two were going to be married like me and Aeneas," She snickered good-naturedly.

"As for being sent back here? I believe I ought to agree with Trix. Me and Aeneas were stolen away from our bodies just as we were at the brink of death by Hypnos. I was in no state to engage in conversation by then, but my husba- Aeneas might know something, as he was a son of Hyp- Sorry, Darkrai. Time travel is extremely confusing," Calypso closed her eyes as a wave of guilt washed over her.

She still remembered his parting words.

Go on without me, Cal! I'll hold them off!

I'm not leaving you!

The darkness of dreams is my domain! I'll be fine, but you won't be!

Aeneas, don't be stupid! Even the gods can be reduced to little more than nothing!

I love you too much to let you fall in harm's way! GO!

Aeneas, watch out!

I'll be fine, agh! I'll meet you in the real world! Find Analissa!

She, in her own opinion, was stupid enough to follow his orders. "Gods damn it, Aeneas! Where are you?" Calypso thought angrily as she swiped a traitorous tear out of her eye. She cleared her throat, and was embarrassed to find out it was hollow when she spoke.

"You're right, by the way. From what I know, Riona is essential to the team. She is, for lack of a better word, my reincarnation. And I'm afraid you will be forced to face a trial similar to fighting Kenta and Miloni - and in that case, trickery and lies will not work for you," Calypso croaked out, flinching at the sound of her own voice. "Fire against fire, power against power,"She tried again, relieved to find out her voice was clearer.

She let her amethyst eyes scan the height of the mountain, its tip not visible from the ground. Calypso focused, drawing power from her old form, lowering her eyes to what Riona had once mistaken for heat vision. It was, in fact, enhanced vision from all points, once the user knew how to control it.

Calypso sensed the magical blocks and shields, completely supported by Lugia's power. She let her eyes flick over to Ateer for a moment, noting that they were exactly the same, clarifying that the mountain was under the protection of Artemis. She slowly let her eyes return to normal, momentarily changing color once more. "Yep, all other entrances are blocked. We'll have to climb," Calypso stated out loud. "From what I recall, we ought to bring the one in need of the antidote. In this case, Riona. Could someone help me conjure a telekinetic net to carry her with?" She inquired, splaying her hands in front of her, already a web of intricate purple and silver lines weaving themselves together in the air.

---

"I can help," Ateer said as he used his own telekinetic power to make a net with Calypso. He wondered why the Calypso had looked at him when her eyes had changed color. "So lets ge Riona on here and get going." He made a note to ask Calypso about it later

(Recap?)

[From what pages?]

---

(From p 10-14 just need to know what is happening)

[Skye and Crono attempt to get the blood by their own, but Minerva (Sandevi's new char) stops them. Ateer contacts Crono via telepathy and finds out that they went to the peak to get to the blood. Ateer and Minerva's attempts get Skye and Crono back to camp. They find out they have to go through trials to get to the blood. Zaugg (Death's Armaldo char) appears to be serving under Artemis/Lugia meaning he is also under Minerva's control. Minerva and Zaugg have a conversation on which trials to give to the rest of the Binaries to get to the blood.

Everyone got dosed with sleep powder by a random butterfree and everyone wakes up laturz in the morning except for Crono who went off to a field of flowers somewhere O_O oh and Analissa cause she went to the base of the mountain scouting it out.

Bellatrix cooks breakfast for everyone and introductions are done and it is revealed that Bellatrix knows some of the legendaries personally. They discuss the relationship of gods and legendaries and Bellatrix lets slip knowing a female Lugia Binary. Ana is obviously worried about Riona and Brittan easily sees through it. Bellatrix is happy for the change of subject and hands everyone a plate of food, explaining that her bag has a pocket dimension, a gift from Mew/her mom. They discuss food preferences then go onto the subject of psychic links.

Bellatrix conspicuously does not like the idea of a psychic link, and Crono says he has heard that if someone in the link dies all the others would suffer. Ana reveals that she cannot access her Binary form and is comparably weaker, and that she has a bag similar to Bellatrix's. She explains that she knows a lot about what is going on, though, including the trials. She almost lets slip about her and Riona coming from a different dimension.

Crono assures her that she was probably better than him, and notices and asks about her near slip-up. Bellatrix suggests that they get moving, and Ateer continues to insist on a psychic link. Bellatrix completely rejects the idea, saying one of her friends died before and she didn't want to risk it. She also appears to know that some memories could be accessed through a psychic link.

Bellatrix's mention of a second war unlocks Analissa's Binary form, and Calypso, including Calypso's memories of the first war. Read up on the planning thread to find about that shizz. It's just a short summary in the posts. Bellatrix and Calypso have a small reunion (as Cal is using Ana's body) and they both explain shizz to the other characters about the first Binary war. I can't explain this clearly so just read the last few posts of page 14. ]

Bellatrix glared at Calypso. "For the last time, that was a fanfic I was writing! I was fifteen! Can you blame me? And at least I still have my own body" Bellatrix protested. When Ateer mentioned Riona, she went to her friend's tent, rushing to her side. She noted that her condition seemed to be stable, but she was still unconscious. She used a mixture of psychic and bubble to put Riona in a psychic bubble, floating her back to where her friends were making a psychic net. "Oh, good idea! I can help too!" Bellatrix lowered Riona's bubble to the ground, popping it once she was on the grass. Bellatrix began to hum a little tune, shining strands of a green psychic energy seeming to sprout from midair. She plucked them out of the air and began to weave them together with Ateer and Calypso's portions. As she hummed, her psychic strands seemed to pulse in reply, like creating a symphony of string. "Rosemary, heaven restores you in life~" She mumbled the lyrics of the song under her breath as she wove.

---

"Wish I could help..." Skye muttered sadly as she saw the others working on the net. She idly thought of the happier times in her life, mostly reading, and occasionally seeing Rayquaza in her dreams. As Skye exited out of her daydreams, she became painfully aware that so far, she had done nothing to help the others. "Maybe I should help more..." Skye said to herself before she idly played with the air currents.

---

Crono, after hearing Calypso's request, walked into the tent, excited to finally prove himself. But, when he entered the tent he saw Ateer and Trix, already doing their nets.

At first he thought that there is no help needed anymore, but then he got an idea. "I could always carry Riona with my telekinesis." - he edged closer to the sleeping Binary and watched Bellatrix weaving the net of green power.

---

Bellatrix looked up. "Yeah, so can I, but this way is safer. If any of us is knocked out, it won't dissipate, but is the user of telekinesis is knocked out, Riona could die." She pointed out.

---

"Are you saying that if someone uses telekenisis, and he/she is knocked out, then their telekinesis is also knocked out?" Skye asked as she walked into view. She was genuinely curious into the inner workings of Physic abilities, and how they functioned. "Besides, with so many people in the group who can use Physic powers, wouldn't we be able to catch her?"
