Chapter 6: The truth

Chapter 6: The truth

*Meanwhile in the hall of Origen*

Mew sat at her table in the dining hall, staring at the bowl of berries in front of her. She had been eating as to not worry the others but truth was she wasn't hungry. She hadn't been ever since Darkrai ran away without a reason. Actually she hasn't been in the mood to do anything since that day. Sure, Arceus had told her he would find Darkrai again but that didn't make Mew feel any better. Darkrai was out there without any knowledge on how to fight or survive in the wild. What if he got attacked? He would never be able to defend himself!

Mew's POV

I was staring at the berries and it felt like they were staring right back at me. I could hear the rest of the hall talking and laughing like nothing was wrong. But something was wrong! Darky wasn't here.

"Mew?" Someone asked me, but I didn't react. "Mew are you ok?"

I looked up at the pokemon but didn't answer. Instead I got up and headed to my room without saying another word. I didn't feel like eating anymore, not even if someone would bring me a big bowl of candy. The only thing I wanted now was to have Darky back, smiling at me again.

The moment I arrived in my room I closed the door and the blinds, so no one would be able to see me from outside. When I was sure everything was set I took my diary out from under my pillow. Carefully I flipped the pages, looking for that day. That day that Darky's life became a lot more unbearable.

As I read the page out loud memories started flooding in.

Mew's Supercool diary in which every awesome new day is described! Yay!

Today Darky had a fight with Cressie. He accidentally attacked her and Arcy started getting real mad at him. He told him he never had wanted to be Darky's father! That was so sad! Poor Darky must've been devastated. I had wanted to run over to him and try to console him but I couldn't. Azelf was standing next to me with a strong hold on my shoulder so I couldn't move.

He was also watching Darky, there was a frown on his face.

"Unbelievable," he had whispered. "Normally I can't read Darkrai's feelings at all, but now..."

I had looked at him in surprise, not able to comprehend what he was saying. When it finally dawned on me my mouth fell open and I stared at him.

"Can you feel what he's feeling now?" I asked him quickly. He had looked at me with the saddest look in his eyes and I felt my insides squeeze together, not sure if I really wanted to hear what he had to say.

"He's hurting, Arceus really hurt him with that last statement." He whispered then. I felt tears start to well up but pushed them away, I had to be strong. Darkrai would get over it, and it couldn't get worse than this. Right?

*A few hours later*

After reading back what I wrote before I can't help but feel stupid. I'd been wrong. I had thought Cressie to be nice, to care about her brother, but she didn't. She, supposedly accidentally, let it slip that Darky had attacked her intentionally. Everyone believed her of course and all legendary pokemon focused their attacks on poor Darky. He didn't stand a chance! Now he's in my room and it looks bad. Azzie is with me again, watching me write this down now. I'd better stop writing now or he might feel left out. I sure hope everything gets better for Darky soon, I would be really sad if that's not the case.

*end of page*

Mew's POV

" I would be really sad if that's not the case. "

I stared at the last page with sad eyes. It shouldn't have become worse, but it had. And now my Darky was gone... maybe forever.

I felt tears well up again and sighed deeply, laying myself back on my HEMELBED. There had to be a way to contact Darky, right? But what..
