The group neared the area as Purple sighed.

"Ok... my turn... what haven't I covered?" He paused as he looked over his stuff. "Erm..." Blue hummed.

"What about allies? Clearly you have to have someone to turn to when you're near death." Purple gulped.

"Oh yeah..." He sighed as he pulled out a small notepad. "I have two groups I turn to more than others. One group is any allies within cults and teams. They usually help with getting me alibis and access points to places I normally can't go. Then there's a team half my family started in and will always halfly be in. It's known for helping people in need through the crimes and other things they do." The group nodded before Noivila let out a loud sound, stopping their travel entirely. Purple blinked before smiling. "Thanks Noivila. We're here."

The Torren Region stood strong as the sounds of battle filled the air. They were very pale, despite being so close to the Riddle with them. Red frowned as Purple sighed.

"That's going to be annoying... oh well..." He sighed as he looked around. "You guys can either go through the safe route or stay directly behind me as I penetrate the wind current for a forced entry. If you're following, don't hesitate." Green gulped as the others paused.

"Everyone hang on tight." They gulped as they held on. Green shifted so that he was behind Purple. "Ready when you are." Purple gulped as he nodded to Noivila.

"Alright. Let's do this!"

With a proud screech from the delta, it raced forward with Charizard following closely behind. It struck a mysterious force and crashed through with ease. The group behind experienced minor winds as they raced through and joined next him. He huffed.

"Everyone in one piece?" The group nodded. "Good. Welcome to the Star Foundation."

They stared at him in shock.

"Star... foundation?" Purple nodded as he looked down.

"Torren, home to the Augur/Cult War and the source of the Midori Code; Holon, home of the delta pokemon and legendaries; Dreamal, home of secret worlds; Vesryn, home of the Team War and the Victory Aura; Aroma, home of the Royal Lines and the Queens War. Here, in these regions, is the Star Foundation, home of the Legendary Stars."

The others blinked as something hit the sky. Several stars appeared as several chants hit the air.

"Legendary Star! Guide my dreams and let the Mimicry Gardens arise! MAGICAL SILENCE!"

"Legendary Star! Guide my dreams and let the Cloud Bottle arise! MIRROR RAIN!"

"Legendary Star! Guide my dreams and let the Trio Regi Caves arise! TRIANGLE OF DISASTERS!"

"Legendary Star! Allow my faith to rise and show the spirit of time travel my hope! TIME FLOWER RAID!"

"Legendary Star! Allow my faith to rise and show the spirit of gratitude my hope! REIGN OF FOREST LORD!"

"Legendary Star! Allow my faith to rise and show the spirit of genetics my hope! Resolve my anger into power! Regain the title that was not mine, not yours, but was once ours! MIND COMPACT! COMPANIONERSHORE! DUET! AURA SPHERE! PSYCHO CUT!"

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of wish to fight! DOOMSTAR!"

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of crystal tech to fight! ROARING TIME!"

"Legendary Star! Come forth and bring the crown of darkness to thee! SHADOW RIDER!"

"Legendary Star! Come forth and bring the crown of icicles to thee! ICY RIDER!"

The attacks hit the air and almost collided. With what? It was unsure until another shout tore the attacks down. Purple blinked as the shout returned. It wasn't very loud, but Red heard it.

"Knock it off or my next card is pulling you out of the sky!"

"Go ahead!" Pink's voice pierced through the air easily. "You won-"

And that's all she was able to say before a chant hit the air.

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of victory to fight! V-SERPENT!"

Purple probably stopped breathing at that as a scream followed.

"I'll say this again. Knock it off, or you're joining." Silence followed as a Skarmory hit the air. Two people were on it as a sigh of relief came.

"Cloud... that wasn't needed. I could've handled them." The male huffed as a faint voice followed.

"That was a pointless battle. We didn't need to get involved. We will fight them when the time is right."

Purple finally snapped out of the daze and called out to the duo.

"Velvet Riddle, you act!" The female's gaze followed the voice to meet his eyes. She huffed.

"Cloud..." He looked over and paused before changing directions. With some simple, quick motions, they were flying beside the group. "Look who has returned."

"Velvet, I thought you were going to kill me!"

"Yeah, after you left the foundation, I ripped the others into smithereens." He stopped as she smiled. "Call me an act. I'm best at that." He gulped.

"Don't remind me." He looked at Cloud, who quietly sat in front of the Riddle. "And you! I heard that from here!" Cloud's eyes raced into his as he stopped.

'Really?' He mouthed as he stared in shock. Purple nodded as Cloud looked away. Velvet smiled.

"Oh? Is that so?" The shocked male's face warmed up as he paused.

'How...' Purple sighed.

"Well... so much for 'quiet boy.'" He smiled at the others. "But at least we got one." Red smiled.

"Darn right we did." Velvet smiled as Cloud cooled his face off.

'Pardon?' Purple and Velvet chuckled at him before Purple called out to him.

"WE'RE PLANNING ON SAVING THE WORLD! ARE YOU JOINING?" Cloud and Red grabbed their ears as he smiled.

'Purple... I'm not deaf. Silent, but not deaf. I can hear you perfectly. Quiet down or I'm getting Vici on you.' Purple purred lightly.

"If I have to deal with a shy ghost as my partner, your little victory dance is nothing." Cloud shot a glare at him, making the Midori stop. "Dude, I was kidding."

'Better be. Because I have a 4x on you with Noivila out.' Purple looked away as Blue cleared her throat.

"May we get an introduction? One person is a mystery right now." Velvet smiled.

"Guys, this is Cloud, The Blade of Vesryn. Cloud, these are our seniors..." She quickly glanced over them. "Red, Blue, Green and Yellow of Kanto; Ruby of Hoenn, Diamond of Sinnoh, Black and Blake of Unova, X of Kalos, and Eclipse and Ultra of Alola." Cloud nodded to them as he frowned.

'Our best bet for a meeting is either any hidden bases you have, Purple, one of mine or the Cult's temporary one.' Purple gulped.

"Follow me."

~~~

The group landed at a base in the forest. Purple gulped as they went over.

"I haven't gotten around to showing the others this, so they have no idea this exists yet." He let them in and to the meeting room. Red pulled out the book.

"Velvet... I know you don't know what this is, but... Unqulo lweLungisa lokugqibela eHarmony?" Purple frowned.

"I saw that and thought it was familiar but..." Cloud smacked him before holding out his hand. A powerful voice hit the air.

"Sjunde botemedlet!"

A light coated his hand as something appeared.

He gripped it as the others stared. A soft voice escaped him as silence filled the air.

"'Unqulo lweLungisa lokugqibela eHarmony' translates to 'Cult of Last Remedy Harmony'. Get in line." Purple blinked out of the daze as he paused.

"This isn't fair..." Cloud shrugged as he held out the dagger. Silence reappeared before he spoke again.

"In any case, this is what you're looking for. One of many of them." Cloud paused. "I presume it'll be used to rip apart whatever is holding the others back from the right side?" A soft nod came from the others as he paused and made it vanish. "Alright." Velvet smiled.

"You're talking more than normal. And louder." Cloud's face went red at that.

"I-i-" He looked away, gaining a giggle from the others. He didn't try to make a comeback as he sighed. Purple smiled at his distress as he hummed.

"Well... since we have everything... we should start trying to figure out what we're up against." Velvet paused.

"What is your goal?" Red showed her the page.

"This. I'm sure you will know what you're doing." She took the book and smiled.

"Darn right I do. The best place to do this is home territory." Blue paused as Red turned to Purple.

"How well can we get out without triggering the others?" Purple gulped.

"It'll take some time, but we'll catch the others' attention. We better fight them head on this time." Velvet smiled.

"Alright!" Cloud sighed pitfully at that.

~~~

It took two seconds after they hit the skies for the others to strike. Purple gulped as Noivila growled. Velvet looked at Cloud instantly.

"Please." He sighed.

'Don't die.'

"Is that an option?" She smiled as she jumped into the air. He gulped as she called out.

"AIR BREAKER!"

The air almost broke into pieces and the shards practically tore the Torren ride down. The trio yelped as they were shot down. Velvet landed and smiled at the ride that her fellow Dexters were on.

"And that's how the Flame of Holon really works!" She blew a kiss, getting a warm face from Cream. Indigo jabbed her elbow into her side after seeing that. Velvet frowned before casting again.

"COWL OF WAR!"

The blast hit the wing and the Indigo yelped. Cream floated up slightly as Velvet growled.

"Off my girlfriend, jerk! Hit her again and I'll be the one taking heads!" Red's face went pale while Cream's warmed up again. Cloud sighed as he paused.

'Incoming.' The group paused as a Togekiss and a Tropius floated above them.

"Legendary Star! Come forth and bring the crown of darkness to thee! SHADOW RACER!"

"Legendary Star! Come forth and bring the crown of icicles to thee! ICY RACER!"

Purple gulped as they pulled out of the way.

"Twin rulers. Not happy." Velvet huffed.

"You take them down. I just tore your sister, girlfriend, partner, and fellow Blade out of the air." Purple huffed looking up.

"Togekiss and Tropius, huh?"

"Yep." He smiled.

"All yours, Noivila."

He jumped off as the delta shot up and damaged them to the point that flight wasn't an option. The two girls on the rides flew down to the others as he rejoined them. He smiled before looking up.

"Hey Cloud, tell your girlfriend and rival to get out of the sky." Cloud shot a glare at him.

'For your information, they are dating each other. I'm not associated with their love life.' Velvet frowned.

"Yeah, says the guy that has a little love crisis panic attack after Oat wraps an arm around his shoulders or Bone plants a kiss of get well on his forehead." Cloud looked away as Velvet patted his head. "You'll find the one for your heart." His face was a tomato at her action. Who knows why, but he seemed frozen as Velvet called out to Cream. "Cream Darling, could you kindly leave us alone? We're busy." Cream blinked before going to land. "Too easy." She looked at Cloud as he cooled his face off. "What? Thinking of your love life?" He huffed as he stood up and looked at the duo as they prepared their attacks.

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of wish to fight! STORMCALLER!"

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of crystal tech to fight! EXPLOSIVE DISASTER!"

The older Blades were on their feet and putting up barriers in minutes. Velvet paused before tapping the barriers and strengthening it. She hummed.

"They've gained some immense strength recently... much to be noted from them and their-" Purple hissed over her next words. She stopped instantly. "Nothing! Their powers have become incredibly powerful!" Cloud bit his lip as Purple nodded in agreement. The others chuckled as fear and embarrassment hit their faces.

"What secret was about to be released?" They held a stare as they stopped.

"Nothing!" Cloud huffed.

'Let me slightly demonstrate.' He stood up and drew a star with two fingers. A larger magic circle appeared as he chanted.

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of victory to fight! VICTORY AURA!"

A soft flame danced across the air and circled the Blades holding the shields. A powerful aura encased them and pulled out the true potential of their abilities in seconds. A quick gasp followed as Black's eyes raced over to him. He smirked at that.

'Which is another reason I always win.'

He smiled at the duo before pulling out his phone. He called someone, making the duo stop their attack. Purple grabbed his mouth to stop the laughter that almost followed. He paused before speaking.

"Are you guys mad that you don't have your ace? Lemme show you what that ace can do when you piss it off." He hung up and redrew the star. The magic circle reappeared as he casted.

"Legendary Star! Raise the night and summon the scar of victory to fight! V-V-ASSAULT!"

The flames that followed raced into the air and destroyed the poor Flygon that stayed up. The duo yelped as they went to land. He smiled before turning to Purple.

'Lead the way.' Purple gulped before they got ready to pierce through the air force.

"One... two... three!"

They raced through as Forest attempted another attack. His attack didn't make it through sadly. Purple chuckled as they flew away.

"I wonder what the result of that was. I'm not going back to find out." The others giggled as Yellow paused.

"Velvet... where exactly are we going?" She smiled.

"The Home of the Night, CoC, CSK, Will-o'-the-wisp, Coatl and Unyango lweZiko. The spot where all great spells make their homes to spread across the world." She locked eyes with her older brother and smiled.

"Next stop... Willowriver Valley of Pallet Town!"
