www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTtaodKFOoELooking down from atop his mountain peak, Articuno observed the tiny blinking lights in the distance. It resembled a sight he had once seen, a human city. Although this was no human city, pokemon were the ones who had built it, and they were the ones who inhabited the artificial metropolis. Narrowing his eyes in hatred, Articuno turned his back on the city, the cold winds that howled around Mt Blizzard seeming to grow that much chillier from the anger and disappointment he felt at seeing his own kind corrupted like the humans. Trotting slowly and regally across the barren white mountaintop, Articuno felt a deep sorrow as he sectioned off in his mind another area of the old world he had once known vanish as a result of science. A sorrow that would in time add to the cold hatred that had been growing in his heart over the last thousand centuries.

A little farther away from where Articuno had been looking over Nalani had been wandering around the mountain again though she was careful going around it knowing the great ice bird Articuno had made this place his desirable home despite him saying that he had she had access to come and wander the mountain and had promised to keep that secret with her as she was told.
She then began to sit down on a boulder as she had kept her gaze over towards where the other parts of the island were and looked around the mountain sides and all its beauty before laying back and resting her eyes as she wanted to take a small rest, and possibly Articuno may come back again.

Perched outside his ice cave, hunched forwards with his back to the rest of the world, Articuno's sorrow began transmuting into anger, anger that now the pokemon, once the purest beings on the planet, had chosen to follow the human's example. And were now inflicting further scars upon the planet.
No longer. He thought. No longer. I won't let them harm my home. He thought a little louder, the grey clouds in the sky growing even darker. Snow began falling from the sky in great amounts, and hailstones the size of cannonballs began plummeting from the heavens, a powerful vortex of wind wrapping itself around the mountain.
The destruction will spread no further, this is where is shall end. Articuno thought, turning around one last time to take one last glance at the pokemon city. I will seal off my home to all outside forces, if the world is to be destroyed, I will protect what part of it I can. As he said this, a huge wall of ice began forming around the snowy mountains, sealing them and Mt Blizzard off from the rest of Licentia, along with all the pokemon inside.

Nalani just laid there peacefully as she didn't know what Articuno was thinking, but she sure found out what he was doing as she opened her eyes and saw the vortex that was being created around the mountain and began wondering what was going on around here? But then she saw the giant ice wall she realized what was going on.
"NO!" She screeched outloud as she began to run to the wall and ram her side to it a few times and began to claw at it though she noticed it had little to no effect and so tried to climb it but the walls were even too slippery for her claws to grip and began falling off of it. Soon enough she began to stop evrything that she was doing and fell to her knees as tears weld up in her eyes, now she couldn't possibly see her friends or family anymore, what good would that possibly ever come out from? She then began to put her claws over her eyes and wept there right on the spot.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjvphZ7wx3UUnable to hear Nalani over the howling winds, Articuno began making his way back into the recesses of his cave, the icy barrier between his world and the outside world becoming thicker as the force of his blizzard moved from inside the confines of the barrier to the outside, expanding the area of land covered by ice, by Articuno's reasoning protecting it. Inside the icy mountain range the snowstorm began to calm down, the only sound the noise of the blizzard moving away from the mountain. Entering his icy cave, Articuno made his way over to his ancient perch, preparing to seal himself back into an icy slumber. He and the ice types of Mt Blizzard at least would be safe, even if the rest of the world was to be destroyed. Folding together his wings, Articuno nodded his head, the air around him growing colder, and ice forming all over his body as he began to freeze himself solid within the cavern at the top of the mountain. Down at the base of Mt Blizzard, a padded foot came crashing through the wall of a snow cave, a Hitmonlee and a Machop both wearing the same yellow shash walked out, blinking in disbelief at the great frozen barrier that now stood before them, blocking off the horizon. "M-Master! What is this!? I'm sure that wasn't there before!" The Machop cried in panic, looking up at the old Hitmonlee like a frightened child. Standing there, staring up at the ice wall in total awe, the Hitmonlee gave a start, as if he had just heard something. Spotting Nalani a few feet away, crying her eyes out. The old Hitmonlee put a hand on his apprentice's shoulder, pointing over to the sobbing Weavile. "Choku, I am afraid I do not know. This is unlike anything I have ever seen before. Although I suspect that that poor soul might. Come, we must give aid to all who require it, regardless of type or class." He said softly, the young Machop nodding and dashing over to Nalani, his master following with long springy strides. "Hey, are you alright? What happened out here!?" The young Machop asked Nalani with concern.

Nalani stopped crying with her eyes wide as she brought her claws away from her face and looked over to her side and saw a Machop and a Hitmonlee right by her side and quickly stood up as she had the look of surprise on her face with the tears that were streaming down her face had began to freeze making her have two long dark lines going down her face. She then made a depressed face as she looked to her side and sighed. "The mountain is now blocked out by this giant wall of ice with no escape to freeze to death..." She was saying outloud though it was to herself and began wondering if this was all her fault.
A little further away up the mountain a small bush was in the icy cold mountain all alone, however this bush was moving as in close examination it was actually a small hedgehog of some sort walking up the mountain side near Articuno's lair. He was going to talk to the bird of ice for what he was doing was wrong and selfish and he knew that the whole world will be torn apart because of it, even if it did stop Mewtwo dead in his tracks. When he got near the entrance of Articuno's home and saw all of the frozen statues of Pokemon as they had gotten too near to the Ice bird's home, he shuddered a bit but he was a brave sould and finally came to the mouth of the cave and yelled outloud in it, "Articuno! I know you are in there you cowardly bird, now get out here!" He yelled outloud through the large ice cave, for a little guy he sure had a lot of guts.

Looking down at the Weavile with an expression of pity, the Hitmonlee crouched down next to her and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, taking a couple of spicy berries out of one of his sash pocket and handing them to the Weavile. "My name is Mawashi, and this is my student Choku. We had come here to train, when that blizzard started up. Did you see what happened?" He asked her gently, Choku standing behind him and looking up at the great wall of ice.
Up at the mountain peak, Articuno failed to hear the plucky little pokemon's cry, already sealed in more than a metre thick layer of ice. As the air around the frozen cave grew colder, ice began to form on the ground near Shaymin, threatening to encase him within the ice cave too.

Nalani gave off a tiny smile as she politely took one of the berries out of Mawashi's hands nd made a little nod with her head to the two pokemon as she replied back to the Hitmonlee. "Thank you, my name is Nalani and as for the wall of ice Im not to sure. There must have been an angry Legendary up here somewhere and blocked this mountain off from the world." She said as she looked at the top and began to wonder what was going on up there.
Shaymin by know knew that Articuno was in his icy slumber if he didn't bother comming out and saw the ice forming around his feet, there was no way he was going to be a frozen hedgehog today or ever, but there had to be some sort of way to blow down these massive walls. Suddenly like a wish that was answered one part of the wall began to crack and fell down making the whole mountain shake with Shaymin losing his balance and began to transform into his other less-known form and began to roll down the mountain towards the others down below.

Choku stood there, intently watching the ice wall. His eyes widening as a crack appeared in it, he began running towards his master and Nalani. "Look out! The wall's collapsing!" He yelled, dashing past them quickly as massive ice shards began raining down from above, Mawashi standing behind Nalani as she ran to shield her from any falling debris. Turning back to look up at the ice wall, Choku's expression turned to one of dismay, as the ice chunks still formed a massive barrier that kept them locked in.
Up at the top of the mountain, Articuno felt the shattering of his barrier, his eyes glowing blue in anger. What!? He yelled mentally, the ice around him shattering. Steping out of his shattered sleeping place, Articuno glared down at Shaymin, regarding him with a cold stare. "You, are you the one who broke my barrier!?" He asked Shaymin angrilly.

Nalani was in shock when a sudden blast hit one of the walls and shattering it to bits and as much as she wanted to run and avoid the ice shards falling down she was so mesmerized by the ice and the shapes and the colors that she couldn't move. Luckily Awash was there to protect her from any of the falling ice.
When Shaymin stopped tripping and falling when the mountain stopped shaking and tried to stand up on the long skinny legs of his though he kept on falling down once in a while but when Articuno came out of his resting place he just glared back at the giant bird. "No I did not, but I'm sure glad whoever did do it!" He yelled out at him as he finally stood up straight but then began to hear something charging and looked over to the place where the ice had broken and saw a large purple ball being made until it blew up and blasted the tops of the walls making it fall on the lower parts with some of it turned into a fine powder of just raindrops as the warm winds began to sweep into the the mountains making the areas around the mountain warmer.
There stood a figure with a black silhouette as the thing began to speed towards the mountain side where the two Legendaries were but slowed down as he was still hovering in mid-air by the two. "No, he is not the one who did this, I am." the Pokemon was no other than Mewtwo was he had seen what Articuno was doing, despite he kind of liked the idea that Articuno was thinking he didn't want to bring doom onto this island.

Feeling the warm air flooding into his region, Articuno narrowed his eyes in anger, a cold wind blowing from behind him against the warm undercurrent. "I've never seen a legendary like you... but how dare you enter my realm!? If this world is to be destroyed, then I will preserve what little of it I can!" He told the two legendaries before him in a voice like ice scraping against steel, spikes of ice coming out of the floor, the statues of frozen pokemon shaking as an icy wind howled around them.
Down on the ground, Mawashi and Choku looked on at the wall of ice, which had somehow been dissapated. "Come on, let us get back to the city. There's no telling how long the gap may stay open!" Mawashi told Choku and Nalani, dashing towards the open gap, Choku following behind him. "I think there's something going on up there!" Choku yelled above the howl of the wind, staring up at the swirling wind around the mountain peak.

Mewtwo just crossed his arms when he saw the array of icey spikes come up all around them and just shook his head slowly from side to side before looking back at Articuno again. "Now, now Articuno no need to get all nasty now do we? We are literally on the same side are we not? We want the humans who have been ravaging our precious world we call home destroyed and bring a new world to life." As he was making up his speech his cloned henchmen that he had brought with him though all of them Ghost Pokemon began to go up towards the frozen statues and stabbing needles into the as they began to take the DNA out of them all so they could further on making more clones.
Shaymin began to listen to what Mewtwo had to say and he didn't like one bit of it at all. "You are both wrong for doing this! If you wreck the laws of nature you will be-" "I think that's enough of you there deer." Mewtwo said as his eyes began to glow blue as a blue and purple aura went around him and smacked him right into an ice pillar and smashed right through it as the deer began tumbling down the moutain.
Nalani was ready to go off with Mawashi through the giant gap in the barrier until she heard what the Hitmonlee's asisstant said and looked up at the mountain, that is when she saw a small white and green deer thing tumbling down the mountain side and yelled out at the two, "Look there! Someone is in trouble!" she hollared out as she pointed at the figure comming down.

Articuno eyed Mewtwo, watching him as he launched Shaymin down the mountain. "You speak of us as allies, but how do I know I can trust you?" He asked suspiciously, the air around him growing so cold that the water and gas molecules around him began to freeze, blocking him off from any of the ghosts. "Words are deceptive. If you are truly sincere, then open your mind to me!" Articuno commanded Mewtwo, narrowing his eyes at the psychic pokemon.
Down at the mountain base, Mawashi turned around in mid run, dashing towards Shaymin with long elengated strides. Reaching the bottom of the mountain, Mawashi opened his arms wide, bracing his muscles ready to take the force of Skaymin's fall for him.

Mewtwo chuckled a bit when Articuno began to ask him to open his mind to him and brought his arms down, this giant bird was obviously not going to cut him any slack now was he? "If that is what you want, then I shall do that if it pleases you." HE said as he calmed his mind and it became open like a rock that had beedn moved away to show the treasure inside like his mind revealing his thoughts and his memorires.
As for Shaymin he just tumbled around as if he was a lifeless ragdoll as he hit on either snow, ice, or cold stone as he fell until he flipped off of a ledge and fell into a Hitmonlee's arms. As much as he wanted to thank whoever this was his mind was all confused and he couldn't think too straight, and so the deer just went out off conciousness from all the confusion.

Using his Mind Reader, Articuno tested Mewtwo's mind, touching the surface solely to assertain his intentions, not wanting to test deeper, lest it be a trap. Learning enough to know about the meteor and how much Mewtwo despised the humans. Drawing back, Articuno continued to eye Mewtwo, the air temperature dropping even further.
"It appears that you are sincere in your desires, athough I am suspicious as to what means you would pursue them." He told Mewtwo flatly. "We legendaries must not tamper with nature. I will protect what is mine, but going on an offensive like I belive you plan is out of the question." He told Mewtwo bluntly, keeping his eyes narrowed at him. "Now kindly leave my domain. Unless you wish to remain here with me, preserved within the ice of the mountain."
At the base of the mountain, Mawashi looked down at the small unconicious creature in his arms, reaching down and checking it's pulse. Turning back to Nalani and Choku, he ran up to them, keeping Shaymin held in his arms. "Come on, we have to leave. Before the pass seals up again, we have to get this little one medical attention." He told them both, dashing past them towards the exit.
