"Yeah, I do like them all." June types away at her notes going over something she couldn't place her mind off of. It was research into Giratina and Yvetal. "What I dont get is why Gray has them as a PokeSoul. It feels like there should have been another instead."
"There was." Chroma found an art book of Gray's. Inside were the drawings of the pokemon he sketched from training his physic and aura range. "It died inside the vessel."
"Wait what did you say?!" June asked giving her full attention.
"The body Gray is inside is a vessel. Its sole purpose is to be a vessel for another soul. There a few around the planet. At least 300 to 400." Chroma stopped when she came across some sketches of the Dark Forest. The ones there had the most detail. "Ah, Tricia wonder what she is up to?"
"No, go back to explaining about Gray," June said grabbing Chroma and pulling her.
"Ahhh, calm down already." Chroma wiggled and turned back to Leafeon and escaped. She turned and looked at June like she was a crazy woman. "Settle down already. Gray died remember?"
"No, I didnt know that."
"Huh.. oh c.r.a.p." Chroma realized she miss spoke. "You cannot tell anyone Juniper." She said extremely serious.
"Ok. But explain."
"Cats out of the bag now. Might as well." Chroma released her aura s.h.i.+elding them from any possible lookey lews. "Gray died in his world dont know how but he did. He is older than you June that is definitely true. If you remember his world doesn't have Pokemon as we do."
"Yes, I remember that from his memories."
"The vessel that Gray is in, original Pokesoul is that of a Charizard. When he arrived into that body it couldn't handle the strain of his soul. So It died. Well, was forced to go to sleep. If Gray didnt have a soul so full of Dark Energy it might have had a chance."
"That is terrible. So wait does that mean Gray killed the other person.
"No, June you are not understanding. That body was meant for Gray. It is part of Gray in every way. Just a fraction of his soul." Chroma tried to explain this was not her area of expertise. "Hold on let me get Ori and Sabrina here." With a pulse of aura, the other two arrived. Ori looked a little angry while Sabrina was still upset about something. Since Gray was gone she was remembering her time in the dungeon she was in. She did not like the memories.
"Ugh, so Gray is Gray inside of Gray?" June looked puzzled at that. The words she herself spoke made her cringe at the thought..
"Yes."
"So Giratina and Yvetal are also Gray?"
"Yes."
"Why can they fuse then?"
"Because they are the same as well."
"Ehhh what?"
"Gray male half is a Giratina. His female half is Yvetal."
"Wait so Gray is like Jacob?"
"No." Said Ori. "Gray is like me and Chroma." Seeing there looks the two looked at each other and nodded. Bathe in a green-white light they turned into female humans. Body build was similar with a few differences. Ori's hair was long and l.u.s.trous white with a pink purplish glow in it. Her eyes were a dark green. Chroma hair was short with bangs and a light blonde with streaks of green. Her eyes were a light green. The odd thing they could be considered family members of Juniper if they lined up with one another.
"Ahh, you look the same," Sabrina said.
"Because we are the same. We are the same ent.i.ty. I just separated myself when arriving here when this world was created. After I made the first generation of Pokemon.* I dont have a male half. Just two female halves."
"So Gray can separate into a female?"
"No. He refuses to. Or more like he cant develop into one. His design will not allow it. Neither his thinking. He was always short-sighted in that regard." Ori said chuckling.
"But he has a female half? The Yvetal though."
"Correct. When he was sent away his soul took on the form of Giratina. His job called for another to be needed. With his understanding of Death and War, he was finally able to separate sort of. He or should I say she became Yvetal." Ori looked tired. She laid down before continuing. "Once he arrived they both return to there source. Back to him. Why he cant control his power fully, I do not know."
"You speak as if you know Gray. How he was before."
"I did. He is the one who made it possible for me to come here. I arrived first and he came much later."*
"Did anyone else that you know come?" Sabrina asked.
"Yes. But I won't say who. It is not my place to."
"So who are you when you are togethor?" June asked.
"My name is Gabrielle. Sometimes Gabriel or Gabreil. Depends on the world I am in." She looked at Chroma. "Consider her the part of me that is full of mischief."
"You are just a stick in the mud is all. All serious and no fun. Well, not enough fun." Chroma said sticking out her tongue.
"Can you combine again?" Sabrina asked.
"We can, but we won't. We have an enemy that we must stop. Combined it knows where we are and can send its agents after us."
"I hate to ask... but who might that be," June asked wincing before they answered.
"The pretender Arceus!" Ori said almost snarling in anger.
"But Arceus created the Pokemon world why would he bring harm to it."
"Bah, he created nothing but the Generation IV Pokemon. That abomination came and rewrote history. Taking my created credit and that of the others." Ori looked heartbroken after she spoke. "The war Gray was tasked to create had another effect."
"It gave birth to a twisted energy." Chroma spoke. Giving Ori a chance to rest. "It was contained but Gray and a few of the others were already sent to different places. That twisted energy became Arceus once it escaped to this world."
"Then Gray is at fault for this," June said. She didnt know why she did.
"As about as much as it is yours." Ori said heatedly.
"What?!"
"Gray was designed to start the war to determine the value of humans. At the end, when everything was determined all those who died during it was sent to a new world and live again. This process happens over and over again for eternity. You all die and travel to heaven or h.e.l.l. After a time you are reborn repeating the process. A different world most times. Sometimes within your own descendants." Chroma said smiling at her partner. "Gray will continue to do it till he decides to stop. But he wont. Neither will we."
"But you humans do have a choice," Ori spoke after regaining some strength. "You can choose not to. That is your right and what your free will allows."
"Why Gray?" Sabrina asked.
"Be specific." Chroma said.
"He was designed to start the war. But what about everything else. Is that all he knows."
"Of course not. He is a bringer of Death, Sacrifice, Judgement, Life, and Law. He loves humans more than most of the others. A little too much at times." Chroma said. Her eyes saddening from a long-buried memory.
"You sound as if you love him," June said.
"As much as I love the world I live in." Ori smiled "but not in the physical sense as you think. "
"I dont understand but ok." June sat down. It felt as if she had been standing forever. "This twisted energy is it the same as the energy from the Dark Forest?"
"Yes, it is. Pollution of life itself." Chroma said. "Combat is not my area of expertise. That is one of the reasons me and my children failed."
"This is a lot to take in. What happens now?" Sabrina said.
"Nothing. Continue your life as is. Eventually, in a few years or a few decades, something may happen. It may not. I will stay with you until then. Or if you no longer want me to, leave."

"Shouldn't we tell someone?" June asked.
"We have. That is the purpose of the Elite League and Pokemon League." Ori said. "Did you think we wouldn't try to stop this from happening." She scoffed. "There others who walk the Earth remember. Everyone has different roles."
"I didnt mean anything by it." Said June sheepishly.
"Dont take it to heart. She is affected by Sabrina is all." Chroma teased.
"Huh by me?"
"Yes, you," Ori said plainly. "I am acting as your medium. Your thoughts and feelings affect me. I am quite enjoying it so dont worry."
"I thought the Dark forest was because of my Levanny?"
"Yes but you dont know everything that happened in Dark Forest," Ori said. "The energy is following the will of Arceus. Changing small desires into obsessions and the like. The pain and suffering of those deaths fueled it and made go further in its design."
"And I take It I didnt help with my desire to see my sister again?" June said feeling guilty.
"No, you didnt. But that is ok." Chroma said walking over to her. "Your heart was in the right place. It is the reason Gray didnt kill you. Subconsciously he would be forced to stop."
"Gee thanks," June said a little depressed.
"June if you and Gray would have met somewhere else," Chroma propped her head on the woman's lap "what do you think would have happened?"
"I dont know. I would have just talked to him a little I guess." June said slightly downcasted.
"From his memories how does he feel about information. People who spread it correctly for the betterment of others?" Chroma asked with her eyes watching the woman for any deceit.
"Ahh, he likes to talk. A lot. About anything and everything till he decides if he likes it or hates it." June said trying to see where this was going. "We would have talked for hours most likely. That considering the way he views me.." She stopped and blushed a little. "Ok fair point."
"Good. So when he gets back in a few days, let's jump his bones!" Chroma said smirking.
"Chroma!" June said exasperated. She looked at Sabrina and saw she was deep in thought. "I am gonna have to find something to bribe Gray with. Maybe then he won't be to upset."
"Eh just give him some food or a good book that will work." Chroma said.
"I am going to go for a walk," Sabrina said. Ori disappeared inside of her when her back was turned.
'I will stick with her. She is not in a good state of mind. Her memories are starting to affect her present state.'
'That's fine. But why didn't you tell her the connection she has with Gray?' Chroma transmitted back.
'I can't. Not until her emotions are stronger. Not until I am sure myself. The twins blessing will drive her crazy if I did.' Ori sent back. 'How about you do your best to keep June in the group. She is extremely valuable to us. As well as for yourself.'
'Yeah, yeah I know.' Chroma looked back at her partner.
"June if your that worried about the future, I can show you." Chroma said with mischief in her eyes.
"I have to know. Show me." June said determined.
*How the fact that Mew came first as a Legendary Pokemon. And the fact Giratina and Yvetal are way after generation wise."
