Distorted Remnant: A Remake of "Distorted Reality"

Chapter 11: That's a Lot Of Backstory

{Flashback}

*Cresselia POV*

I flew through the air in my Pokemon form, heading to the spear pillar to go to Arceus' realm. Something felt off lately. I hadn't heard or seen anything about Darkrai, and it was strange.

I went to Arceus' realm, and heard voices, Dialga, Palkia, and Arceus. They were sitting around a table, having a meeting.

"Where did you send him?" Dialga asked.

"I don't know." Arceus said, her voice tired.

"What do you mean you don't know?! You opened the portal!" Palkia yelled.

"QUIET!" I yelled, getting there attention, "Now, what is going on?"

"Mom and Y/n were fighting," Dialga explained, "She opened a portal and sent him through, but we have no idea where it went."

"Darkrai also went in." Palkia said, "So now we've lost both of them."

I saw that Arceus was stressed about this, so I came up with a solution.

"Why don't I go find them?"

"What?" Arceus asked, "No child, I could never ask you to do that."

"Arceus, I want to do this," I said, "It's my father and my brother, I should go for my family."

She looked down sadly.

"Wait, I didn't mean it like that."

"No no," She said, looking up, "Y/n and I have come to terms with our familial issues long ago."

After a while, she opened a portal, and I went through, ending up high in the sky, over a large castle-looking place.

"I'm coming dad."

{Flashback Over}

*Y/n POV*

"And that's how I got here." Cresselia said.

"Well, that explains it."

We were sitting in the infirmary, Me, Yang, Blake, and Cresselia. Darkrai was laying in the bed, completely knocked out.

Suddenly, the door flew open, and Neo came charging in. She immediately ran over the Darkrai and started checking him over. Weiss and Ruby walked in behind her, with team JNPR right behind them.

"Don't worry," Cresselia said, "I only hurt him a little."

Neo glared at her, and I stood between them.

"Stop, we don't need any more fighting tonight."

"Speaking of which," Yang said, "Why were they fighting?"

"Simply put, sibling rivalry," I said, "This has been going on since I created them."

"What?!" Everyone said in unison.

"Yes, let me start from the beginning."

I sat down and began to tell the entire story.

"In the beginning there was nothing. It was just me and Arceus, flying through space, with no goals, no problems, just nothing. It was just me and her, and we were a happy set of twins, brother and sister."

"You have a sister?" Ruby asked.

"Yes, Arceus, the god who created the world," I said, "Anyway, when she created the world, it was strange and beautiful. Humans were even stranger than anything else she created. To be honest, I didn't like humans in the beginning, and I created chaos. Arceus let me get away with it to start, but eventually, I took it too far."

"What did you do?" Blake asked.

"I tried to destroy the world."

Everyone gasped, and I continued.

"I was young and dumb, my 'teenage' years were awful. Puberty sucks," I said, "After that, she banished me, to a world called the Distortion World. There I lived for millions of years, bored out of my mind."

"About 50,000 years ago, I was just floating around, bored as always, when I decided to do something I never thought I'd ever do. I decided to create life."

"Create life?" Weiss asked.

"Yes, I used a black gem, and an artifact called the Lunar wing. With those two artifacts, I made two living children. My children." I said, "I named them Darkrai and Cresselia."

"Wait, so Darkrai and Cresselia are your kids?" Yang asked.

"Yep, these are my kids," I said, "Arceus took them from me, for their good, and trained them, turning them into gods of dreams, Cresselia of good dreams, Darkrai of nightmares. After a few thousand years, Darkrai came back to me, and we began to plan my escape from the Distortion World."

I let out a sigh and continued.

"The escape went almost as planned," I said, "Arceus and I fought, while Darkrai fought with Dialga and Palkia, my nephews and Arceus' kids. It was almost perfect, before Arceus opened that portal."

"Wait, the portal that brought you here?" Pyrrah asked.

"Yes, I ended up here, and we all know what happened next."

There was silence, as I stood up and walked out of the room. I stood in the hallway, looking out the window.

I heard two sets of footsteps walk up behind me.

"Y/n..." Blake said.

Blake and Yang were there, both looked concern.

"I can understand if you don't want to be with me anymore," I said, "Not many people would want to be with a demon."

"What are you talking about?" Yang said, "We're not breaking up with you."

"Really?"

"No," Blake said, "We love you, and that won't change now. We're convinced you're not the same as before."

"Thank you girls," I said, "And you're right, I have changed."

Everyone began to leave the infirmary, going back to their rooms.

"Well Y/n we're gong to bed." Blake said.

They both kissed me, and walked off, as I went back to looking out the window.

"Hey Dad?"

I turned and saw Cresselia standing there.

"What is it?"

"I'd like to stay here with you," She said, "At least until Darkrai is okay."

"I'd love for you to stay here." I said, "I handle everything, but for now, let's go to bed. I'm tired."
