Kalos High - Elemental Orbs

Prologue

Third POV:

The Elemental Orbs were passed down from Arceus to be protected. She trusted 10 people with this task. Each of nine protectors had been given 2 orbs, while the last protector had been given the most powerful of the orbs. It contained even greater power than the other eighteen combined. Arceus gave a prophecy.

The Hero will arise.

The Evil under the guise of Evils shall rise.

The Elemental Orbs shall form allies.

He will be reborn or else he dies.

The Orbs were never passed down directly in the family. The inheritor first hid it and tasked the next protector in line to retrieve it. Once done, he/she was deemed worthy of being a Protector. Their job was to make sure that their respective Elemental Orbs never fell into the wrong hands and to wait for the signal of The Hero. He was the Protector of the last and strongest orb. He would reunite the world for the fight against darkness. When the threat was over, the Orbs would disappear and become a part of Arceus.

Some families changed their surname frequently so as to throw the criminals off their tracks.

For centuries the Protectors had been waiting for the signal. Each Protector had their respective family hideouts. There, a shrine stood. Each day, the Protectors visited the shrine, waiting for it to glow, signifying the start of unity. The signal never came for over 10 centuries, for over a millennium. That is, until.....

Now.

The Protectors had been training very thoroughly, so that when the signal came, they would be ready to defend the world. They would go around the various regions and try to scoop up some evidence or activity of any criminal gangs. They acted normally when they visited a new region, so as to not arise suspicion of them being Protectors. It helped that the general populace did not know about them too.

The Protectors kept in contact with one another, so as to help if there was any attack on the shrine where the Orbs were kept always.

But now was a special case. The Protectors had died when their children were only about 4-5, fighting against Team Zeo. Therefore, the Protectors hadn't been in contact for about 10 years now. Luckily, none of their hideouts had been invaded. The protectors trained with the Elders, who were proficient in the art of Pokemon Battling. The trainers bonded with their pokemon and became strong together. There were some exceptions like the Waterflower and Yvonne. When receiving their starters, they made sure to inform the respective region professor about their status as a Protector.

There were many strong protectors around in recent history. John Yvonne, Adam Shinji, Brian Waterflower, Hadwel Anderson, Mike Aether, Green Morgan, Gilbert Joseph, Flint Stone and the strongest of them all - Blue Oak and Red Ketchum. The above mentioned people were also the fathers of the most recent generation of Protectors. Blue Oak was still alive.

The families weren't allowed to inter-marry, as that would only cause chaos and defeat the purpose of distributing the Orbs in the first place. Plus, not angering Arceus sounded good too. Now, not only would the Protectors go to Kalos High School to snoop around the region to pick up trail of criminal activities, but also they would try finding the other Protectors and exchange information. Some had already been attending the High School, so they would have more useful information.

The Protectors were now ready for their torturous year of the High School.

Location : Team Rocket Headquarters.

Time : 6 AM.

Ash watched with cold eyes as the boss of Team Rocket - Giovanni - went flying down the air and into the fire below. The fire was coating the forest floor. Battle was raging all around him. He ordered Greninja to use Water Shuriken to stop the fire. Ash flew down on Pidgoet to check the body of the Team Rocket Boss. Just to make sure, Ash plunged a knife into the criminal's heart multiple times until he was sure that the breathing had stopped.
