Ange looks over at the glorious Mega Evolution that she has created. "Bet you never expected the monster you were trying to stop be the reason you were able to save the world, did you," she asks with a smirk. Zygarde chuckles and shakes its head.
"No, I didn't. But let's talk about that later and focus on actually saving the world," the Legendary responds. Ange nods and turns her attention back to Darkrai, which is fuming with rage.
"I didn't account for this possibility," it mutters, still in shock as it calculates the new variable. "This wasn't supposed to happen. My win! I-It was…"
"Never gonna happen," the Shadow ends for it. The white nightmare shakes its head and looks at her. Suddenly, the shock in its eyes are replaced with rage and determination.
"No… My victory is coming," it states as it begins to rise above the ground. "You cannot stop me. I will succeed. And with my win will be YOUR AND THIS CITY'S DESTRUCTION!!!"
Darkrai cries out as it sends out an army of Dark Pulses. The squad dodges them, Zygarde taking a few hits but not that many. "Shadow! You go left. Zygarde, you take the right. Rouge can handle the center and I'll fly above. We'll attack from all directions," Ange commands. The other three nod, immediately taking their positions.
"COME AT ME HOWEVER YOU WANT! I DON'T CARE," the opposing shiny screams as it gathers energy. "I WILL COME OUT ON TOP!"
"WE WON'T LET YOU," Zygarde shouts back, firing off Thousand Arrows as it continues to get closer. The Shadow grunts in agreement as she fires off a pitch black Light of Ruins.
"Statistically speaking there is no real chance for you to win," Rouge inputs as she uses Power Whip on the monstrosity. All these attacks hit the enemy simultaneously, and Ange is about to add another but the Rouge Mega Mythical roars with power and creates a wave of energy that pushes them all back.
"STATISTICALLY SPEAKING!? STATS DON'T MATTER IN THE REAL WORLD," Darkrai yells in response. "In the real world, it's only about who works hardest and those who try hard but never make it. AND THEN YOU HAVE HUMANS WHO DO NOTHING BUT ABUSE POKEMON WHILE THEY LAZE AROUND AND ACT LIKE NOTHING IS WRONG!!!"
Hearing that makes Ange freeze. She remembers feeling the same way as she watched the city around her. They keep the Pokémon in Wild Zones and PokeBalls. They force Pokémon to battle and work when it should be them. It's wrong and cruel. But recently, she came to realize that, while yes there are bad people, not all of them are like that. Most see this as working towards a perfect peaceful world. And maybe with some proper guidance, this idea can work.
"I understand what you're saying," the girls states. Everybody turns to look at her with shock. It's like they forgot who she used to be, which is weird since they talk about it all the time (like, literally only fifteen minutes ago when Darkrai tried to recruit her). "But we are wrong. There are abusers, but most don't mean it that way."
"You've been corrupted by the humans," Darkrai growls back. It then launches a giant Dark Pulse at her, which Ange easily avoids.
"No, that's not it," the heterochrome replies as she takes a step forward. "I have talked to many Pokémon as well who have influenced my thoughts on the situation."
The girl continues her advance, now about ten feet from the white terror. "Even the Pokémon have been brain washed to believe this is okay," Darkrai tells her, shooting more Dark Pulses. Ange punches through them, continuing to get closer.
"That may be true," Ange admits, now only an arm's reach away from Darkrai, "but some of them needed a human to find them. Their life improved because of their trainer."
"Preposterous," the shiny replies, this time with no attack. The two are now mere inches from each other.
"No, it's true," Ange tells it softly. "Sometimes we need a person in our life. I know I did. Taunie really helped me with things I didn't know I needed help with. So did the other members of Team MZ.
Darkrai seems to be struggling with the concept that its thought process was wrong. "No…" it mumbles to itself as it shakes its head. "No, no, no, no, no, no, NO!!!"
In a moment of panic from realizing it dropped its guard, Darkrai attempts and Apex Swing, but Ange moves fast. She pulls her fist back and uppercuts the Mythical, dealing last strike needed to knock it out. Mega Energy bursts off the shiny and the Hyperspace Dome melts away, revealing the world around them again. They won, but Ange wasn't done with Darkrai yet.
Part 49: Oración…"WE DID IT," the Shadow exclaims as she jumps up and down with joy. "Take that, ya worthless eyeball!"
"Don't be rude," Rouge states harshly, smacking the Shadow in the back of her head.
"Ange, are you gonna come or just stand there," Zygarde asks, watching the girl with concern as she gazes at the fallen Darkrai.
"Um… I'll catch up," Ange replies, her eyes never leaving the Dark type. "I have something I want to do first."
Zygarde looks at her for a bit, considering if it should leave or not. After a bit it sighs and walks away with the other two parts of the heterochrome's soul. After they're all gone, Ange approaches the Shiny Darkrai. The Pokémon doesn't react to her, just continuing to stare up at the sky.
"Well, what are you waiting for," it questions after some time in silence has passed. "Aren't you going to gloat?"
"That's not what I'm here to do," the girl responds as she takes a seat on the ground next to the Mythical. "I just want to talk."
Darkrai studies her for a bit before sitting up with a sigh. "I've got nothing better to do," it grumbles, looking over at her once seated properly. "So about what?"
"Why do you hate humans," Ange asks, wasting no time with easing into the conversation. "I mean, I get hating them. Really, I do. But what made you hate them?"
The shiny stares at the girl for a bit, considering what to respond with. "Well," it says after a bit, "I have personal problems with them."
"Would you mind elaborating on that," the heterochrome inquires softly. Darkrai looks away, remaining dead silent for a while. Ange doesn't leave, though, giving it time to get comfortable with the topic.
"You really want to know," Darkrai asks quitely. Ange nods in response and the white terror sighs. "A couple years back I had been hunted by humans. They tracked me across the globe, eventually getting their hands on me. I fought hard and after a couple months broke free of their cages. Even though I escaped, life wasn't easy. I was starved and dehydrated and all of my fellow Pokémon were afraid of me, not because of me being the bringer of nightmares but because I was associated with humans. Honestly, I should have died out there."
"Why didn't you," the girls questions gently, not wanting to push but curious to hear more.
"A kind Trevenant took me in, looking past the fact I was with humans to see that I was in need of help," the Mythical answers, its eyes a bit teary now. "After recovering I thanked my care taker and set off, away from the unwelcoming forest. Being alone for so long after that gave me time to think. I observed the world around me from the shadows, especially the humans. Over time I began to notice a pattern with them. They all laugh and smile and act all nice even though they are enslaving and forcing Pokémon to do their bidding. It was horrendous! And to make matters worse, most of the Trainer's Pokémon were cool with it! I realized that society has been corrupted and balance was ruined by humans and took it upon myself to fix it. I didn't know how I would, though. That is, until I heard of a Darkrai that used Hyperrouge Ange Floette’s Power to cause chaos."
"You knew that power would be able to achieve your goals, so you took it, slowly and subtly growing powerful up until now, when I stopped you," Ange finishes, knowing the rest. Darkrai just nods, still avoiding eye contact. The girl just sits there beside it quietly, processing the information. "You know," she finally says after a few minutes, "I truly do understand where you're coming from. I thought the treatment of Pokémon was awful and humans were evil and cruel. That's the whole reason I did what I did. And that idea isn't wrong, but it's not entirely right. You see, all humans are different. Most of them actually care about Pokémon and aren't being bad when they do the things they do, actually looking for peace. But there are still bad ones out there, that want to hurt and control Pokémon. Unfortunately for you that's the kind of people you got stuck with."
"How did you learn the difference between the human motives and become so wise about who they are and lose your anger," Darkrai questions, finally looking at her with wet eyes.
"Well, I haven't yet," Ange answers. "I'm still learning, and sometimes, when I get irritated, it gets hard not to wipe out the human race. But lucky for me I have a group of friends that help me find the positives in the world."
"I wish I had friends like that," the shiny mutters with a sigh. Ange thinks for a moment and comes up with a brilliant idea.
"You can," she tells it, receiving a very confused expression from the Dark type. "Come to Hotel Z with me and learn about accepting humans."
"I don't think they'll want me there," Darkrai replies sadly.
"Oh they won't," Ange tells it with a laugh. "But they'll come to accept you. They are firm believers in second chances. Taunie is, anyways."
Ange stands up and brushes herself off. Then, she looks down at the Shiny Darkrai and offers her hand to it with a smile. The white nightmare just stares at her for a second before nodding, taking the outreached hand and getting up. "Alright," it says. "Let's go to become a better being in this world."
Part 50: Explaining To Do
Ange, the Shadow, Rouge, Zygarde, and the Darkrai (that revealed its name to be Abyss) arrive at Hotel Z, where the MZ Team+Lebanne and L are still stuck to the wall from Ange's feathers. They are being held with face against the wall, unable to see the group behind them.
"Oh, yeah... I forgot about that," the heterochrome mutters. She yet again fails to snaps her fingers and the blades fall away, releasing them.
"Thank you so much," Korrina exclaims with a stretch. As she turns around, the first thing she sees is the Shadow, which petrifies her. "DEMON!!!" she screams, acting in instinct and giving her a solid punch in the gut.
"OW," the Shadow howls, crunching over in pain. "I'm not bad! I'm literally Ange!"
Paxton stares down at the dark energy being. "You're the Shadow, aren't you," he questions. When the girl in pain nods, he gives her another strike in the gut. "That's for what happened at Hotel Richissme."
The Shadow seems to contemplate this them shrugs. "I can see why you think I deserve this, but I stand by what I did."
"Thank Arceus you're alive," Taunie exclaims, rushing to the other girl and embracing her tightly.
"I was never in any danger," Ange replies, hugging her back.
"That's a lie," the Shiny Darkrai buts in. The MZ Team plus some all turn to it, looking at it with suspicion.
"Isn't that..." Naveen begins in a whisper.
"The evil Darkrai," Lida finishes. He and the fashionista tame a step back together, grabbing their PokéBalls.
"Ange, what is this," L demands.
"I would love to explain, but nobody else would understand," Zygarde says, putting a hand on the girl's shoulder. "You're on your own."
Ange takes a deep breath and exhales slowly. "Okay, so I may or may not have told Abyss it can live with us."
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!!!" Paxton screams. Abyss flinches back a bit, but Ange doesn't move a bit.
"Maybe a little bit," she answers truthfully. "But, like me, all it needs is some help. Some guidance. This Darkrai isn't evil. It's hurt and in need of comfort. Please, give it the help it needs like you did for me!"
Paxton and Taunie look at each other. The girl shrugs at her partner and the boy sighs. "Alright, fine," he finally says. "Honestly, after some of the things I've done, I can't really judge."
"What do you mean by that," Ange asks, everyone looking at him with the same confused expression.
"Follow me inside," Paxton tells them all. "I'll explain there."
Part 51: Trust
The group follows Paxton inside, who is looking very nervous. After they all take a seat, the boy takes a deep breath and states: "We need to talk. I've been up to some... shady things."
"Like what," Ange demands. Her tone may be low, but her anger is loud and clear.
"I, um..." Paxton slowly sinks into the couch under his girlfriend's glare. "I... kind of… sort of... started an Anti-Ange group..."
"YOU WHAT!?" Taunie and Ange exclaim in unison, causing the male to flinch.
"I was taking too Grisham and Griselle, they didn't trust Ange either, we told Emma, she joined js, then Mable invited herself, and next thing I know we're a secret organization," Paxton explains very quickly, sighing with relief when he gets this off his chest. "Look, I quit it. I promise. I trust you, Ange. And Emma quit when I did, so you have nothing to worry about!"
Ange sits in he seat silently for a bit. "Well..." she finally says after some time has passed. "You were right not to trust me. I was going to parasite and mentally destroy y'all. I'm not anymore! But that was my plan..."
Taunie is just starting at them in disbelief. "This is inane," she practically screams. "I-I thought we were all friends!"
"We are," the heterochrome reassures her. "It just took more time than we left you believe."
"I promise, there's no more secrets," Paxton tells her, Ange nodding in agreement.
"Okay," Taunie says, relaxing in her seat. "I trust y'all."
"Well I'm tired," Naveen randomly states. The three jump with surprise, forgetting everyone else was there. "Can we head to bed?"
"That is a brilliant idea," Ange agrees, standing up with a yawn and stretch. "Goodnight guys!"
Everyone bids her goodnight as she goes into the elevator. "Hey, Paxton," L says to the boy. "Don't leave yet. There's something we need to talk about."
Part 52: Lots and Lots
Ange comes down from her room the next morning and is greeted by everyone standing in the lobby. The group is lost in a conversation and doesn't notice the heterochrome right away. Taunie and Paxton are talking to L and Zygarde. Lebanne is ranting about something to Naveen, who looks like he wants to be doing literally anything else but has to listen. Liada is baking donuts with Ansha and Korrina. It is the Mega Guru that notices Ange first.
"Hey," she exclaims with a friendly smile and wave. Ange smiles back and joins the girls. "How'd you sleep?"
"Amazing," Ange replies as she stretches a bit. "Although I am still a bit sore after yesterday's fight."
"Want a donut," Ansha offers, holding up a chocolate donut that has sprinkles. "My mommy says sweets make everything better!"
The once tower girl chuckle softly as she excepts the pastry. "Thank you!" She takes a bite and it truly does make her feel a bit better. "Mmm! This is delicious! Your mom is right!"
Ansha giggles and goes back to baking more donuts, throwing what Ange thinks is random berries into a bowl. "Hey, Ange," Taunie hollers to the heterochrome. "There's some big news to tell you!"
Curious, Ange leaves the baking group to join Taunie, Paxton, Zygarde, and L. "What's up," she asks.
"So me and the other members of Team MZ talked last night…" Taunie starts.
"And we agreed that we want you to become a member, too," Paxton finishes. She observes the two, seeing no signs of false joy. They truly want her to join the group!
"If it makes ya feel any better, I'm joinin' too," Lebanne tells the girl, flashing her a sharp toothed smile.
"Well I was already going to say yes, but now I'm even more excited," Ange answers, smiling just as wide as eceryone else.
"As long as we're sharing good news, I have something, too," L states. "Me and Zygarde shall be staying at Hotel Z permanently! I promise I won't be a burden and shall do my best to help out when I can."
"Same here as well," Zygarde agrees, only Ange able to hear it.
"Ugh… so many people," Abyss observes as it walks into the room. As the shiny navigates to Ange, it makes as much distance from others as possible. Seeing Zygarde and Abyss together reminded Ange of an idea she had last night.
"You two," she says to the Pokémon. "Follow me."
