Pokémon: Pink Paradise

Chapter 25: UB•

Selena was taken back by what Melody, the first Lele known of existence, who died so Selena could be born with the help of Toby, had said

"Your power?" Melody held her heart

"My older brothers... I'm sure you have heard this story before about the battle between the twin princes, my big brothers, who were created by the legendary Pokémon of Zekrom and Reshiram. In order to get them to stop the war, I had to take their souls from their bodies and sync them into their own legendary"

"You have the ability to hold a soul" Melody nodded "what happened to those twins?"

"Today, they have been reborn, just as I... but as one person" she held her finger up "and this particular Lele is cursed" she shook her head "He is cursed... and specific nightmares are showing him why" wha..? "I cannot go into detail, because you are talking to your own soul. I can only stay out for so long... I've waited for this day. Here..." she handed a white glowing ball of light to Selena "I hope you will take care of it... I need you to make right decisions with this power. I had to do what I had to do to my brothers, and now they are cursed as a single being. Taking a soul is big, so only use it if it's necessary"

"How will a power like this be necessary?"

"When a person and Pokémon fuse together, they need to be helped be taken apart. It has happened before. Also... when taking a soul, you are able to heal it. That woman... that Lele created by Arceus, she still has a chance. We were made to keep peace, and I've done my part. I gave my life to you, even if I didn't know it at the time. Toby..." she looked down "he doesn't remember me, but we're still together in a way because of you. Be careful..."

"Will I see you again?" Melody turned around and winked at her

"Silly! I am your soul! I'm always here!" She ran away into the lifting fog. Selena looked down at the ball of light in her hands and sank it into her chest, feeling a tingly feeling inside. She's almost complete. Just... have to know what everyone is talking about when saying she had to accept the feelings in her heart

"Molll!" She looked up to see a silhouette of Moltres flying in the sky. Moltres... the one that created Red. She opened her eyes to see herself in a room all in white. Where is she..?

"Miss Selena?" Ms.Wicke walked into the room with a pink box of malasadas "how are you feeling?" Selena sat up, taking the pastry from the woman

"Better..." the woman came over and sat down

"I wouldn't just come out and say this dear, but what you saw yesterday. Those ultra beast? They're out there" Selena looked at her

"Oh yeah... what's going to happen?"

"Let's keep this between you and me... since I know how powerful you are" she took a deep breath "but first, take these" she handed Selena a case of 10 Pokéballs of the same design, but they're unlike any ball she's ever seen

"And these are..."

"These are beast balls, which the aether foundation developed in great secrecy. They are a special kind of Poké ball that are specialized for capturing ultra beasts. As a result, they are very expensive to make, so we have not been able to mass-produce them. Please be careful on how you use these"

"Are you saying you want me to capture those things running wild in Alola?"

"Do as much as you can... I believe you can do so. Right now, I want to worry about the fate of madam Lusamine"

"We'll do something, I know it" this is a mission she can't ignore. She wants to help Lillie and Gladion, so she'll do whatever it takes

"I knew you would say that... dealing with the beast is something different. You'll have to speak with Ms.Anabel and get some more information on it. She will look into everything now and the sightings, now that I told her everything"
