Arceus: An Alternate Origin Story
Tickles:
Next part. And don't be afraid to comment.
The fragments still contained a strong power in them, and life was starting anew while Arceus slept. The forests started to reappear, the cloud of black smoke settled, and the world seemed to be at peace once more. Then, a small glimmer of light brought about strange pink creatures, almost baby like in appearance. They flew all over the world, populating every corner. They called themselves the Mew.
These Mew lived in peace for centuries, and some noticed that certain changes were happening to them. Eventually, they would change, and fill the world with a variety of creatures. All, except for a few, who gained a higher form of knowledge, and worked hard to remain in their first form. Overtime, one was able to survive, as the world was full of predators. Having learned how to protect itself by transforming, it was able to learn techniques from the other creatures.
Mew spent her time exploring the world, and eventually came to the mountain Arceus rested on. Her curiosity got the best of her, and she flew to the top, taking the form of the strongest bird like creature she can think of. When she seen arceus, she wanted to hide, but noticed that he was just sleeping.
"Hey, are you ok? I never seen you before?"
Arceus stirred, and opened his eyes to see a pink cat creature staring at him.
"Who are you?"
"I'm am Mew! Who are you?"
Arceus was shocked to see another living thing. He was sure he had killed everything on this planet. HE ignored Mew's question and looked to the sky, which was as clear as the first time he called the wind. He looked back at Mew, wondering if he made her, or another being.
"Hey, it's not nice to ignore someone who asks for your name."
"My apologies. I am Arceus. It is nice to meet you Mew."
Mew and Arceus started a friendship like no other. she would tell him stories from her travels, and explain all the different creatures roaming around on the world. She brought him food every day, as Arceus could no longer fly, but Arceus never needed to eat. After months of this, Arceus told mew about the creation of the world, the battle he had with his children, and the destruction of his plates.
"So, you can't do anything without your plates?"
"That is correct young one. I feel it is the best course of action to take, so that I will not destroy such a beautiful place. I've been alone for so long, the thought of returning to that makes me happy that I'm free the power."
Mew decided to go look for these plates. She said her goodbyes, and told him she wouldn't return for a while. Arceus decided to rest for the time being. After five years, she returned, with sisxteen different fragments, that seemed to glow more in the presence of their true master.
"Where did you get all of these?"
"I found them. It wasn't easy, but I was able to find the largest ones I can for each color. I know you hate your power, but there is so much more to see that a story can't tell you."
"You have grown wiser on your journey I see. Very well, bring them to me."
Mew brought over the fragments, which surrounded Arceus. Instead of changing into the plates he was born with, they attached to his body. The tips of his legs were adorned with gold, and a large golden ring grew from his torso. For the first time in centuries, Arceus took flight. He and Mew went off so that he may see the planet for all it's worth.
The-Blades-slave:
Well in my opinion the story is well written and a nice tale on the truth that is Arceus, but hey, what do I know?
Tickles:
Ok, so I just remembered I was in the middle of an origin story before I had computer troubles. Now that they are somewhat resolved, I decided to continue this. Enjoy.
For years, Arceus and Mew traveled together, meeting many creatures. For a time, it was peaceful. The two would return to the mountain to rest and recount their travels. However, something seemed wrong with Mew.
"Are you ok, Mew?"
"I'm fine. Just a little tired."
"Very well. Get some rest."
Mew went fell asleep, as well as Arceus. Morning broke, and Arceus awoke before Mew. He went over to his companion, and gave her a gentle nudge to wake her.
"Mew, are you feeling ok?"
There was no response. Arceus gave her another nudge. Again, no movement. He listened close, and realized she wasn't breathing. Tears began to stream form his eyes.
"Mew, please, don't leave. You're the only true friend I have."
Arceus wept over the body of mew for three days. On the final day, he decided he could bring her back. He combined the power of his plates, and with a burst, struck Mew's body with the gift of life. She remained still, but something opened up behind her. A portal to a different realm. Arceus prepared to battle, but nothing came out.
"What in my world is this?"
Arceus took a step inside, and the portal closed shut. Mew had awaken, breathing in new life, but Arceus was no where to be found. She had no memory, and couldn't speak. She flew from the mountain, and disappeared within the world.
From within the portal, Arceus sensed impending doom. This world looked like his, but twisted in different places. It was barren, and gave of a feeling of dread.
"Amazing, isn't it?"
Arceus turned around to see what has spoken to him. It was a dragon like creature, adorned with a golden mandible, and many tendrils sticking out of the side of it's worm-like body.
"Well, surprised to see me, father? I guess you are. You never even met me before today. I am Giratina, and I am master of this domain."
"How did you even come about?"
"Well, it's simple really. The day you shattered your plates of power, you also made another world, my world. And in this world, I came into being. Some of the shards ended up here, and I used them to make a better likeness of your world. There is only one problem. Nothing can be created here, unless it is created in your world. I simply used the shards to open a portal, and ask that you give me more power, so my domain can be the original, and I revered as creator."
"You're mad. Another one of my children swallowed by greed. As I did with the first, I shall banish you as well. This is a fitting prison, and you shall look with envy upon my world for eternity."
"That is the wrong answer."
Giratina attacked, and Arceus was barely caught off guard. The two battled, evenly matched due to the power of the shards, for many years. The eternal struggle would commence, while the world outside would continue to change.
