Pokemon:Ruin hunter

Mt.silver:

Noah approached the small man-made pool filled with what seems to be blood with a dark shade.

The pool was made on a raised platform and carvings were around it, depicting what it was used for.

'Blood sacrifice.....' Noah was able to understand them because they were written using unown alphabets.

'Not just any blood but poisonous blood...'

Noah read further and his eyes widened upon seeing the method to poison the blood.

'It is the poison from a dragon who descended from sky...and they inject the sacrificed victim with this poison 20 days before they are sacrificed... They are kept alive by a method only known by the cult leader...' The poison was said to make them go crazy before the first hour.

'Pretty scary.' Noah took out a small glass container and crouched down to take some samples back.

Golbat was perched on his shoulder as it curiously observed it's trainer's actions.

Noah could somehow see his reflection in the blood and he found out that his face is a bit distorted.

He seems to have multiple pupils and dozens of humans face outline was around his body threatening to piece through his skin and escape.

Some of them looked small, some large, some wrinkly, some rough and some smooth it was as if Noah's body was stitched with body parts which were not his.

'Is it a reference for me having multiple souls or is it the blood?' Noah had already faced reality and realised that he couldn't sit around anymore.

'I am pretty sure this is the real me, a vessel used for trapping countless souls so that a certain man can take over my body and summon an evil entity.' Noah had seen

Enough movies to know what would happen.

But was it he who saw those movies or someone else?

As Noah lowered the container towards the blood, a bloody red hand immediately emerged from the pool and pulled at his hand.

Noah didn't expect something like this and he was caught by suprise as the hand dragged him into the blood.

The moment Noah came in contact with the blood, he reeled back in disgust as it sticked to his body like glue.

And the pungent smell assaulted his nose as he tried not to vomit.

'There wasn't a smell before.' The hand kept on pulling him in into the blood until he was fully submerged.

The moment Noah vanished into the pool,

It started sizzling as dark-red smog started to form from the pool and covered the entire dome in a matter of seconds.

'FUCK!' Noah screamed in the blood as more blood entered his mouth.

His cheeks weren't visible as it was corroded by the blood.

It was as if the blood was acid.

Golbat also wasn't in a better state than Noah even though he was a poison-type.

'.....' The pain didn't allow Noah to think straight as he fumbled inside his bag for gyarados.

But unfortunately he couldn't find it because the thick blood was obstructing his vision.

His body mass dropped as more flesh was being absorbed by the blood.

But on the bright side only his skin and flesh was being corroded, his clothes were still intact.

Golbat still held onto Noah tightly and tried it's best to swim out.

He flapped his wings in the water but that didn't work.

He tried using air cutter but it also didn't work.

He started to send out random attacks hoping atleast one would work.

His body was being corroded slowly compared to Noah.

Noah eyes rolled back as his mouth hung wide open and the blood didn't hold back as it immediately assualted his mouth.

Golbat tried again and again, he didn't know if they would make it out of there but he still needed to do final struggle.

As golbat was about to use air cutter again he stopped and looked at the white thing right next to his face.

A human skull, Noah's skull.

Noah's flesh was gone and his bones disconnected from eachother as they plummeted into the depths.

Golbat stared at the skull with widened eyes.

He was truly shocked.

He didn't know how to react, Noah was the first human he had ever met and he died infront of him.

The only reason he left the cave with Noah was because he was lonely.

So if Noah died won't he be lonely again?

Golbat didn't think much as he started to suck up the blood with his mouth.

It tasted absolutely horrible but he had no choice.

He felt like vomiting but he held it in.

His body became a purple hue due to the poison.

Golbat's body started to form blisters as he became more and more disfigured.

Noah's bones didn't stop diving into the depths but it was slowed down by the pulling force from golbat.

Golbat didn't stop, he felt like his body would explode but he didn't stop, he was at his limits but he didn't stop.

Golbat went beyond his limits, the limits that a crobat had.

Inside the unassuming pool of blood a white bright light was shining like a little star in the night sky.

__________________________________________

Noah weakly opened his eyes as he felt small human hands holding his fingers.

He found himself lying on some grass and a suprised noise was made by the thing that was holding his hand.

"Raaa?.." The small white Pokemon with a green bowl cut tilted its head in confusion.

Right now Noah still wore what he did when arriving at Mt.silver and he still had his belongings with him.

'A ralts? But why does it look a bit wierd?' Noah recognised the Pokemon because he has used it in most of his hoenn playthroughs.

He then looked around his surroundings and was suprised to find that he was inside a huge grotto filled with overgrowth of vines and moss.

Not really, he knew the hand would take him somewhere.

'It looked like I am at the correct place.' He recollected all the things that man said and memories it in his heart.

But what made him think that was the many modern machines and technology which was was present in the grotto.

Although they seems to have been abandoned as it was also covered with nature.

'An abandoned lab?' Noah slowly stood up and checked his belongings.

He was relieved to find that he still had his bag with him.

'Now I have to find golbat.' Noah wasn't sure if he survived but he still held onto some hope.

'I will look around this place and leave to hoenn as soon as I can.' Noah knew he couldn't take it easy.

He wanted to inform others but he can't do that right now.

'Lance, Steven and Cynthia would help me but how can I trust them?' Noah was sure that the cult leader had changed many events to his advantage.

But was that going to stop him?

No.

As he was planning he felt a small tug on his lab coat and saw that the little Pokemon was pointing towards a huge metal door.

'Ah yes, the guide I was looking for.' Noah tapped the bowl cut head and said: "Lead the way."

Ralts removed her hand and happily hopped towards the metal door as Noah followed.

'That poison must've messed up my mind.'

Noah didn't know why but he felt like he had some drop in iq.

While following the ralts he observed some of the machines and was sure that this was the base of the secret cult.

I mean who wouldn't? This place was filled with unown symbols.

'They must've left after obtaining their objectives, but what was their objective?'

Noah grew more and more paranoid as these people were still around.

'I have my morals and I don't enjoy killing others like some psychopath but these people have to go.' Noah was resolved in dealing with this cult.

Finally they reached the metal door and ralts stood infront of it and called out in her language.

"Raa.." Her voice was soft but it was enough as the huge metal doors started to open and the ground rumbled.

'That is pretty cool.' Noah was fascinated by the mechanism the door used.

The other side was pitch dark and Noah released chandelure and started following ralts who was quite a bit ahead.

'I am really tired.' Noah still hadn't recovered from what happened when he met that man but he knew he couldn't be depressed about it right now.

He stepped into the darkness with chandelure,

His first ever companion by his side.

Unfortunately for Noah, stepping into that darkness will leave a huge traumatic scar in his mind.
