I make it across the crates with some difficulty, unlike Kamina who just flopped over there, and M, who could float, and see the void crystal, in its altar, pulsating with some sort of purple energy. "Well... here goes everything..." I mumble to myself and whichever teammates were close enough to hear me as I take the crystal. The moment I do, a portal back to our world opens up behind myself, and Celes. [i]Well, that was nice of them saving the trip back.[/i] I think as I head through the portal without hesitation. I hear an odd voice 'fools... what have you done...?' from somewhere, as I do, but, I simply shrug and continue through the thing. It seemed as though those two fire types were telling the truth about the void crystals needing to be taken to some special place, or, at the very least, they were right about them being corrupted, somehow. Once back, I notice that the void corruption has receded somewhat, leaving at least some ocean. I then take a look at the crystal, and am nearly hypnotized by the thing. Why the heck was I so interested in this thing? Was it simply because I'm a void pokemon? I then think about what those others said... traitor... that I was one of them... that I was, for some reason, or somehow, created by Giratina... that stuff couldn't be true, could it? I mean, I would know if I belonged there, wouldn't I? That place would feel more familiar than it did, and I would have trouble knocking out my supposed 'brethren', wouldn't I? These questions filled my head as I headed back to the guild... so much so, that I almost forgot to hide my explorer's badge from the Treasure Towners.

The others started getting attacked, and I noticed a familiar pale light which now emanated from our entire team. That light meant that Matt's reflect was put up. Josh's confusion seemed to hit, and seemed to deal a lot of damage to the thing. Not enough to KO it, but, close. Daniel decided to finish that one off with another Shadow Rush, leaving only one conscious. I prepare to counter whatever damage is thrown at me, and thankfully, get targeted for an attack. I try to retaliate, but, I seem to go right through the thing, whatever it was. It laughed at my failure, and put Daniel to sleep with Hypnosis. Thankfully, it didn't seem as though he was taking damage in his sleep, this time, so, at least we weren't up against Darkrai again. I try to use bubble, knowing, now that counter wouldn't work no matter what, but I miss, completely, and get hit with a lick in return. Something wasn't quite right about that... for some reason, I couldn't move after that attack was used... wait, no... I was paralyzed. "This is getting bad..." I comment as the mystery pokemon goes for another lick, this time on Matt. I tried to get in the way of the attack, but between paralysis and my new bracer, I couldn't so much as move. Daniel continued snoozing, and it didn't seem like there was much we could really do at the moment, but, thankfully, we were almost done with the fight... we could rest once we were done, and hopefully, I can rest off my paralysis, as well.

I run around town, following my teammates, and notice that Samuel somehow decided to follow us, again. He didn't do much, though, just try and fail to mimic our thief, who just managed to slip away from us. I recall the slight issues they had with Bob and Ed... well... mainly Bob, and notice that the place is quickly running out of stalls of any and all kinds, and I look back at the only store still standing, and whisper to William "I've got this," I then head back to Bob and Ed's store, but this time, I use Attract on the two, who apparently start feeling the effects almost instantly. I then ask them "I've noticed that you're the only shop that's still in business around here, is there anything more I should know about that?" They both nod, and one of them (honestly, I can't tell the difference) says "Well, uh, I'll tell you that he's not working for us, and, uh, we're kinda scared that he might put us out of business..." he then sort of trailed off, and I think about an odd little plan, asking "Do you have any lookalike items that you wouldn't mind losing?" One of the two nods, and they both, for probably the first time in their life, work together and pull out a bunch of false items. I then instruct "Okay, good, now put all of your valuables in another bag, and we'll put these fake items on the shelf... we'll even have a fake shopkeeper take over while you're safe and sound in Treasure Town's famous guild," normally, one of them would have complained, but they both agree, and head off to Treasure town. They did forget to put the lookalike items on the shelves, so, I do that for them, and head back to William. "Okay, I think I've got a bit of a plan... I'm going to need you to use Transform on Bob and Ed, though, are you okay with this?" I say to William as soon as I make it back to where he is.
