Chapter Two: The Hall of Origin
Pain. Unbearable pain. It was all I knew, all I could know. It died down, and I heard voices. "Why isn't it working?"
"Sir, we've tried, but all but the biological weapon has failed." The first voice sounded angry, the second fearful.
"So use it. There is no risk."
"But sir! the biological weapon could kill it!."
The first voice replied:"It would be of no use to us not under our control. Use the biological weapon." His voice dripped with venom and unvoiced threats.
"Y-yes, sir." the second voice sad, albeit shakily. I was thrown into a world of pain, acid eating me from the inside out, inhibitor chips barely holding back my immense psychic power. Slowly I faded into a world of black.
I opened my eyes in a grand hall, the walls encrusted with jewels, the floor infused with gold. A meeting seemed to be taking place. At the front of the hall, a strange white crature semmed to be speaking. "You all, I assume, have heard of the somewhat accidental coordination between Team Rocket and Cipher, XD003." A wave of negative feeling, ranging from mild fear to outright hatred rushed through the gathered.
"That abomination?" a green dragon spat. "We must destroy it!" A creature with a purple tail stood.
"I would not be so quick to judge. Remember me?"
"Nonetheless, Mewtwo," A black, yellow, white, and green bipedal, headless creature stood and spoke. "This...thing can be, is more of a threat than you ever were, not to offend you. However impulsive Rayquaza is, he is correct. He is possibly the most powerful being alive, and he is under the possession of the evil organization Cipher. He must be destroyed, for the balance of creation." The purple-tailed creature sighed, clearly annoyed.
"Am I the only one here who understands the value of life? Surely you, Regigigas, know what happens when preserving life is not the first priority of this council. After all, the disaster in Sin-"
"Do not lecture me about the value of life, Mewtwo. I understand what I suggest to the council. However, this thing does not have a soul. It is only a shell of a living being." I almost audibly growled at this, and turned invisible so that I would not be seen, walking through the hall.
"That," the creature I now knew as Mewtwo began. "Is where you are wrong. How could a soulless creature such as the one you describe walk these very halls?" A murmur of uncertainty swept through the hall, just as I cringed. I knew I had been discovered, but I stayed still, in the hope that my invisibility would save me. It didn't.
I was pulled to the front of the room by a stronger psychic force than I could combat, my invisibility removed and seated and held in front of all of the occupants of the hall. I quickly teleported to the back of the hall, becoming invisible. A small, pink cat-like creature flew over to me and spoke telepathically. I know you're there. it said in a female voice. You weren't supposed to come here, so I'll just "port you back. It giggled, then I returned to the extreme pain of reality.
