Aww, deciding to play with your food a little longer?

I understand, I very much do.

I'm more satisfied by misery than just eating them, so I keep my meals alive the whole time.

Oh, I can just picture the look on Sunny's face when he gets gobbled up whole...

Your loving friend's devourer,

VOID

PS: looks like I can't escape through this connection so you're safe from me... until I find another way. See you soon, friends (:

Chernobog: ......It takes a lot to disgust me. But more than that, I'm disappointed.

Anyway, this will be the last time I entertain anything from you. Consider any future messages to be ignored. You have been warned.

Angelo: Huh? What is this? Someone pulling some sort of weird prank or something?

Chernobog: .......I believe I have a rough translation of this script.

Angelo: Oh, really? It's some sort of language? So what does it say?

Chernobog: .......................

Angelo: ....?

Chernobog: ........Let's be extra cautious for now.

[askteamreliant]

Bad news, I think this might be my last ask.

The black sludge got me. I thought I might be okay when I fried it all with Sunny Day but...

I'm in a bad way now. My flowers are wilting and all my colours are fading away.

It's made me think about my life, and everything I wanted to do.

What are your dreams? What do you want to do?

Did you join the guild to help Pokemon? Get rich? Get famous? Get powerful?

What end goal do you have for your lives? What so you want to accomplish? Do you see each other still being in your lives by the end?

Chernobog, I know you say you only want to eat everything, but I don't think that's where it ends for you. Life isn't only consuming. It's seeing, feeling, experiencing.

I see it so clearly now that I'm the one being consumed. Funny that that happens.

Goodbye, Team Reliant. It wasn't a long time, but I saw you all as great friends.

- Bellossom

Sunny: I...I'm so sorry. I wish there was some way for us to help. Is there really nothing we can do??

All I thought about before was that I wanted to become one of the best teams out there. I joined the guild to help pokemon, and I want to keep helping pokemon for as long as I possibly can. I thought before it'd be cool if we became one of those legendary guild pokemon, y'know? But...I guess thinking further on it...it doesn't matter. Whether we become famous or not. I just want to help others, and all the other details don't matter. My dream is just...to do what I can for others for as long as I'm able to, and with Angelo's help.

Angelo: ....I'm so sorry about this. I wish we could've done something to help somehow.

I guess...my dream was always the same as Sunny's. Help pokemon in need, and keep doing it until we physically can't anymore. That's why we joined the guild. To help others. Some days and some jobs might be tough, but it's always been worth it in the end. And I want to stay with Sunny too. I can't even imagine at any point in our lives where we wouldn't be together. And...Chernobog being here doesn't honestly change that. Maybe at the start I was worried; for myself and others. But it agreed to behave, and I believe it.

Chernobog: ............I hope, that at the very least, it's not painful. Sincerely.

That is...something I've been thinking about recently. This world and these pokemon, they are just so different from the vile and greedy worlds I've been to before. So many pure souls. So many that would fight against me if I became a real threat. And...now I'm unsure of what I want. All I've done is enter into different worlds and consume them. I never thought I would find one that...I didn't WANT to consume. It's a strange feeling. And it's a strange thing to FEEL in the first place. I want to stay here. I want to stay with Angelo for long as possible. I want to figure out what it is that I want. I'll figure out the answers someday. I'll...remember what you've said. I will try to truly "experience" life.

[askteamreliant]

Me again! Sorry if I'm spamming your inbox, but this terminal doesn't connect to a lot of things.

What's the guild like? Is there more than one? Who's the guildmaster? Do you like working for it?

We just have the one here, led by Azumarill. He's okay I guess, kind of a weirdo.

On the topic of what's happening here, the Guild set up a base near the meteor's impact site. Apparently anyone who goes too close to it or touches the black sludge turns into a "Zombie", like what happened to Rayquaza.

Ah, but that's not related to you at all! Sorry, I do ramble. Scientist habit.

I did work for the guild once! I left cuz my team partner said I stank! I was a Gloom at the time, I couldn't help it! The nerve of some Pokemon!

I'm gonna check on that loud noise I heard outside. Don't worry, I'm super careful.

Talk to you later, Team Reliant!

- Bellossom

Sunny: Hey, it's no problem! Our guildmaster is a primarina, and her name is Nereida. She's really cool! She might seem delicate to some pokemon, but her water moves hold a lot of power! She's also very organized, it makes me wonder how she keeps track of everything so well.

Angelo: And her partner is a shiny coldsire named Lavender! I heard they joined the guild together back in the day and have been inseparable since. Lavender goes around to talk to members on a daily basis, and if someone has a problem of some kind, they go to her first. She can be pretty strict though.

Sunny: Yeah, she constantly reminds us that our jobs are important. Of course we know that! Anyway, there's many other guilds out there, and we all do the same thing! Just in different places.

Angelo: Oh yeah, there's a few pokemon that are well known; they're basically legends! Pokemon that reached the highest rank possible in a guild and they go all over the world to help others. They're tied to a single guild, but are allowed to travel all over so they can help those in need! They're all really cool and there's all sorts of stories out there about them!

Sunny: We like working here! We do our best to help others in need too! We'll be just like those guild pokemon someday, just watch!

Angelo: Anyway, it's a shame that happened to you, that's pretty mean of that pokemon. Stay safe out there!

[askteamreliant]

Heya!

So there's more of you, Chernobog?

You're a defined species of... world eating water things? Do you have a culture or society? Do you reproduce?

As for the black sludge, well...

It got sprayed all over when this weird meteor crashed into my world. Rayquaza tried to destroy it and she got covered in the stuff.

It... it changed her.

I try not to go outside anymore. It's not safe.

- Bellossom

Chernobog: Well...to answer your questions simply; yes, not quite, no, and no.

I've always been aware there are others like me. Where myself and the others come from, I do not know. I've "run into" others similar to me, but they're not exactly the same. One was made out of a blue fire, and another was made out of some strange hard metal-like substance. Also, what features they have differs from me as well. The first one had many eyes, while the second one only had a mouth.

But we have no real "society" or "culture". We are not a social "species" in the slightest. Those times I've met others like me, they were immediately hostile. The world I went into was already theirs, and I needed to leave before they decided to consume me as well.

We just...simply exist. To eat.

It is something I never put too much thought into before. But now I find myself questioning.

What is it that I want? I'm...not quite sure anymore.

...My apologies, I'm getting off track.

This black sludge you speak of certainly sounds interesting to me. I wonder what it's purpose is.

[askteamreliant]

Hey, me again!

I got it under control, thankfully. Seems evil black sentient sludge doesn't like sunlight all that much, and Sunny Day works just fine.

From what I saw, it doesn't seem like Chernabog comes out all that often in direct sunlight. Is that just to keep incognito, or does it not like the sun?

Thank you and good luck!

- Bellossom.

Chernobog: Oh, but you're mistaken. I do not mind sunlight at all. But you are correct that I don't appear in my physical form too often. The less pokemon that know about me, the better. We do not wish to cause any panic. So I do my best to remain "incognito", as you've put it.

You have piqued my interest about this "black sentient sludge" though. I'm curious if it's another of my kind or something different.

[askteamreliant]

It's Pride Month, Team Reliant.

You know what this means.

[askteamreliant]

Odd question, but does Chernabog's black water have its own properties?

Taste, smell, consistency?

I'm investigating a similar... occurance, but it's closer to toxic sludge than water.

Aah! It's escaping!

I gotta go, will send more questions later!

Angelo: You know, I never thought about that. It IS water, so...

Chernobog: You're thinking too much on it. My physical form feels no different from the natural water of this world. Only the color is different. However, I can change a little, into something more solid. The best way I can describe it is; think of someone having a really wet or slime-like paw and they touch you. Wet, but solid.

Angelo: Whoa. I didn't know that!

Chernobog: There has been no need for me to use it, that's why. As for "taste" and "smell"...I do not smell, I have no scent. And I highly doubt I "taste" like anything.

Angelo: Can I try to? I'm curious now!

Chernobog: .......No.

[askteamreliant]

so

i have officially run out of ideas lol

i shared all the chapters/parts i'm willing to share, i did a few drawings/posts on their own, and now i have no more ideas

so any help is greatly appreciated

thank you to everyone that been liking posts and following this blog, i appreciate you all!

just to give you a peek behind the curtain though, i have ideas for three more posts/drawings with chapter parts attached to two of them (one or two of them will be a lot of work i think and i'll probably do them digitally to get the full effect)

and that's it

so

i'm running out of ideas for posts lol

so i would appreciate some help! any sort of questions you might have for the boys and the entity!

i'll give a few hints even;

-does Angelo have any idea on what he'd like to evolve into? what about Sunny since he has a couple options as well?

-the boys were childhood friends and all, but how long exactly have they known each other?

-who/what is their guild master? and any other guild related questions

-Chernobog has talked a bit about the other worlds it's been in, but how about more details on previous vessels?

-are there others like Chernobog? does it know any others? has it met any others?

and in general any "what if" questions, but that's about all i can think of at the moment

i will be house sitting during the week and i'm taking my sketchbook with me, so i'd appreciate any ideas for me to work on

[askteamreliant]

two drawings to go with the last bit of the fic chapters i want to share

i could've just colored the sketches with some colored pencil, but...i felt like doing it this way instead lol. i think it shows it all off better

scene from Chapter 12: "Lure"

Angelo and Sunny stepped out into the lobby, going over to the board and looking over the papers on it. There were some other teams around busy talking to each other and getting ready to head out.

As Angelo scanned his eyes over the papers, he heard something. Was that…a growl? It was faint and quiet, so…was that Chernobog?

[Near the bottom right.]

The eevee stepped over to look over the paper it pointed out. A rescue mission. A group of traveling pokemon got too close to a dungeon and one of them fell in. The dungeon was right next to the lake, and it was known to have mainly water types in there.

“Find something?” The pikachu stepped over to look at the same paper.

[There’s something about this one. I sense something about it.]

“Uh, it did,” Angelo explained quietly. “Says it senses something about it.”

Sunny frowned. “Well, that doesn’t mean we have to pick it.”

[I highly suggest you do.]

“It really wants us to.” The eevee muttered.

The pikachu rolled his eyes and sighed. “Fine, whatever. We can handle this.” He reached over and swiped the paper from the board.

~~~~~

The team went into the dungeon. Parts of this dungeon had large pools of water in some of the rooms and corridors. It wasn’t so high that the two of them had to swim, but it was still a little annoying to traverse through it.

They spotted only one wild pokemon in here, a wartortle, but they let it pass them by without fighting it. Other than that, they didn’t see any others. That wasn’t totally unusual, but it was unnerving. Dungeons were quiet. Only their steps and the sound of dripping water could be heard.

Even with experience, it made them a little anxious.

After a while of walking and checking rooms, Chernobog suddenly spoke up.

[Room ahead. Something is off.]

Angelo looked over, seeing an opening ahead of them. He slowly walked over with Sunny right behind him.

He stopped by the entrance and looked inside. He spotted the lost pokemon, a horsea. She gently floated over the floor nearby, her eyes closed and she was shaking. Why was she just in the middle of the room like that? They’re usually against one of the walls or in the corner.

The eevee took a step forward into the room.

[...Wait!]

Just as Chernobog spoke, the walls in this room exploded. Rocks and dust flew out in all directions and the whole dungeon trembled.

Angelo and Sunny stumbled forward, now both fully in the room. Several wild pokemon jumped out from the walls, screeching and roaring in anger. Almost all of them were water pokemon, except for the rhyhorn.

The rhyhorn was right next to the horsea, and it snarled, quickly turning and smacking her aside with it’s tail. She hit the wall with a yelp, falling down to the floor and she was still. Alive, but knocked out.

The eevee and pikachu stood next to each other, looking around at all of them. The wild pokemon stood around and glared at the two of them, snarling or hissing at random. It was a standoff now, both sides waiting for the other to move first.

They’ve been in some bad situations before with dungeons, but this was probably the worst so far. They had to protect themselves and the innocent pokemon. Sunny knew a move that could hit them all at once, but there were two problems with that. With water in this room, he wouldn’t be able to control who it did and didn’t hit. It could end up hitting Angelo and the horsea. The other problem was the rhyhorn. The horn on it could make the electricity hit that instead, and it won’t harm it at all.

Their options were extremely limited.

[I could eat them all.]

Angelo growled faintly in his throat. No. Could it really do that to all of them at once? There were easily twelve wild pokemon in front of them.

[...The rhyhorn. I’ll eat that one.]

Honestly, it might be their only option. But even without the rhyhorn, there was still the water.

[Don’t worry about that. Did you forget what I’m made out of? I will protect you and the client.]

Angelo growled again, looking over at Sunny. “Sunny, prepare for discharge.”

The pikachu flinched, looking at him in shock. “What? But-”

“We got a plan,” the eevee adjusted his stance, bracing himself. “Trust me.”

Sunny looked confused, and then realization hit him. He still seemed conflicted, but he nodded. He glared out at the wild pokemon and his fur began to stand up.

The water underneath Angelo turned black, and it moved over to underneath the rhyhorn.

The wild pokemon flinched, looking down in confusion. It made a sound and took a couple steps back, trying to get away from it. The black water followed it, and then on it’s third step, it fell straight down into the water. It happened so fast, it yelled for just a second before it vanished completely in the darkness.

The other wild pokemon looked over, screeching and hissing in confusion. They backed away from the area of black water.

Small bits of electricity began to pop up over Sunny. He was ready.

[Hold on.]

Chernobog quickly moved back over to underneath Angelo, and he felt something grip onto his four legs before he was pulled very fast to stand next to the horsea. He blinked and swayed a little.

Sunny yelled, his ears and tail pointing up in the air and his fur standing on end, and a large surge of electricity went out, going through the entire room. The wild pokemon were hit, and they all screeched in pain.

Angelo watched as a layer of black water rose up, creating a bubble against the wall and floor, keeping him and the horsea inside. His eyes widened at the sight of the electricity going out like a huge wave, and as it hit the bubble, it simply fizzled out.

Once the move was done, all of the wild pokemon collapsed onto the floor, all knocked out.

The electricity slowly fizzled out across the room, a few random sparks coming from Sunny. He swayed, leaning forward onto all fours as he panted and recovered.

The black water slowly lowered, absorbing back into Angelo. He took a couple steps forward towards Sunny. “Sunny, you ok?”

The pikachu nodded, slowly standing upright and he sighed. “Been a bit since I had to use that.” He mumbled.

The eevee sighed in relief. He looked back at the horsea, going back over and checking over her. There was some bruising on her from the tail whip and hitting the wall. She slowly stirred, opening her eyes a little and looking up at him.

“Hey, you ok?” Angelo asked softly. “It’s ok now, we’re here to rescue you.”

The horsea was quiet, and then she looked scared, rising to float up and she pressed herself into him, looking all around the room. “W-where are they?”

“The wild pokemon?” Angelo asked, a little uncomfortable. It wasn’t uncommon for rescued pokemon to cling to them, but he still didn’t like it. “They’re all knocked out, so-”

She shook her head a few times. “N-no, the other pokemon, they-” she stopped herself, shutting her eyes tight and whimpering.

Sunny walked over, confused. “What? There’s others in here?”

The horsea sniffled. “J-just get me out of here, please. We can’t stay here very long.”

Angelo and Sunny looked at each other, confused. Come to think of it, there’s plenty about this job that’s been a bit odd. But…

“Yeah, we can’t sit here. We’ll take you back to the guild.” The eevee agreed.

The pikachu nodded, stepping closer to them and raising his paw to the badge on his scarf, tapping it and making them all teleport out.

.....................................

here's also the versions without the water/electricity:

and the initial sketches:

[askteamreliant]

whats your relationship status, answer as much as you're comfortable with

Angelo: "S-sure! Me and Sunny are friends! He's my best friend, honestly. We've known each other for years! Our parents live next to each other, so we grew up together as neighbors and uh, we haven't separated since then, heh."

Chernobog: "As someone that is in your head, I want to say that while you speak the truth, you're not speaking the whole truth."

Angelo: "Shut up please."

[askteamreliant]

here's a preview of 1 of 2 drawings i'm planning to do for the next/last chapter post (i MIGHT share another part but still debating on it)

both of these drawings need to be done digitally in order to get the full effect of the moment

it is a little funny to see this sketch without any context lol

give me a few days or so to get it all done and posted

[askteamreliant]

Angelo's name is actually a direct reference to another au i had a while back, with a hero pikachu named Angela

the basics of Angela's story is that she's a human-turned-pokemon that was supposed to help save the world from something; an entity awakening and spreading darkness all over. but she doesn't care about anyone or anything, and when the entity awakens, she allows it to spread darkness. it is actually the light of her partner, a dustox, that ends up saving the world.

Angelo's story is different in a few ways, but both of these "heroes" are connected to some entity, so i thought it'd be a fun reference/thing to have their names be so similar, while their personalities and motivations are so different

[askteamreliant]

espurr is hard to draw lol

anyway, here's the other half of the chapter from before, along with the first section of the next chapter. because they kinda go together

Chapter 7 & 8: "Instincts and Fear" & "Detection"

Chapter 7 continued

Sunny stepped just outside of town. He was too on edge to be around other pokemon right now. He stopped by a random tree and sighed heavily, leaning back against it.

He let his guard down. Things seemed fine, practically normal for some time there. But then…this? And how did Angelo remain so calm?? While he’s always known the eevee was the calmer of the two, this was too much.

The pikachu raised his paws up and rubbed them over his head, his ears down. He shut his eyes tight. He shuddered as images flashed through his mind of what he witnessed earlier.

…He needs to do something.

He understands why Angelo feels the need to just do whatever that thing tells him to. But there had to be a line drawn somewhere.

That thing is evil.

“So what will you do about it?”

Sunny jumped, almost high enough to end up in the branches of the tree he was under. His fur stood up and his heart raced as he looked to the side, seeing an espurr standing by him.

“Huh?” The pikachu panted.

Hannah giggled. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you. I noticed you walking around by yourself and decided to follow you.” She frowned. “Also sorry for reading your mind just now. I did it out of concern since you seem pretty troubled.”

Sunny sighed, a paw on his chest as his heart slowly calmed down and his fur settled. “Don’t do that again. T-the startling part.”

“Right, sorry.”

The pikachu leaned back against the tree again, slowly sitting down. “If you…just read my mind, then…did you see what happened?”

Hannah hesitated a moment and then nodded. “Well, brief flashes of it.”

Sunny groaned, leaning his head back to thump against the tree, his eyes closing. “You shouldn’t see something like that, no one should, but especially a kid!”

“Hey, take it easy,” the espurr stepped closer and put one small paw on his shoulder. “It’s ok. Let’s talk, alright? It might help you.”

The pikachu sighed again. Of course a kid like her seems pretty calm about it too. “T-things were fine,” he began. “We kept doing our jobs, and Angelo said that thing wasn’t speaking a whole lot. But I let my guard down. Now today happened and it…did something like that…and I’m scared of it all over again.”

Hannah hummed, nodding.

“It said weird stuff before,” Sunny waved his paw. “I heard it myself. That thing is evil. Just…pure evil.” He frowned and looked at her. “Right? Am I wrong in thinking that?”

“You’re not wrong,” the espurr shook her head. “It’s a being of pure darkness. An infection. And trust me, if I knew how to separate it from Angelo, I would’ve done so by now. Or tried to contact someone who could. I’ve done a lot of research, but I’ve found nothing.”

The pikachu lowered his paw, his whole body trembling a little. He blinked, feeling like he was about to cry. “I-is there really nothing we can do? We just have to live with it? For how long? Wait for when it decides it’s ready to consume this world?”

“Sunny-”

“I’m scared,” Sunny continued, standing up. “I’m scared for myself, I’m scared for Angelo, and I’m scared for everyone else. If it wants to ‘consume our world’ does that mean that what it did to that tropius will happen to all of us?! Just eaten up like little snacks for it?! Until it grows big enough to actually be able to eat whole buildings and forests and mountains, until there’s nothing left?!”

Hannah backed away a few steps, staring at him. Then she lowered her gaze to the ground.

“I-I’m sorry,” the pikachu sniffled, rubbing both his paws over his face. “I shouldn’t yell at you like that.”

“It’s ok,” the child sighed, looking up at him again. “You’re scared. Pokemon do things they wouldn’t normally when they’re frightened or upset. But you shouldn’t let this fear control you.” Her expression became serious. “You’re a good pokemon, Sunny. Do what you can, and be there for Angelo. He needs you, and you need him. You’re a team, right?”

Sunny sniffled, lowering both paws from his face. “Yeah,” he nodded, looking at her. “Yeah, we are.”

“Then be there for him. This is scary for him too.”

That’s true, Angelo is the one possessed here. Sunny couldn’t imagine what that felt like. He’s cooperating with it because he’s scared too. He wouldn’t want it to end up hurting someone. So he’s doing what he can now, one day at a time.

Sunny took a deep breath. “Right,” he nodded, now feeling more determined. “I will.”

“Great,” Hannah nodded. “I’ll keep digging around.”

“Thanks Hannah,” the pikachu smiled a little, his tail flicking to the side. “For the talk, I mean. But also for trying to help us out.”

“You’re welcome.” The espurr smiled back.

Chapter 8: Detection

Angelo’s ear twitched hearing the door to the room open, looking over to see Sunny stepping in.

“Hey,” he greeted.

“Uh, hey,” the pikachu mumbled, closing the door behind him. “Sorry about that.”

“It’s alright,” the eevee sighed. “I get it.”

Sunny took a couple steps towards his own bed and then stopped. He looked conflicted about something. Before Angelo could ask, the pikachu looked at him and walked right up to him, grabbing one of his front paws and holding it in his own.

Angelo froze up a little, surprised.

“I know I said it before, but I wanted to say it again.” The pikachu looked determined. “We’re a team and we deal with stuff together. If something is bothering you, or that THING makes you feel bad, you let me know, ok?”

[Curious. What happened out there?]

“Uh,” the eevee cleared his throat. “Yeah, of course.”

“And as for you, Chernobog.” Sunny narrowed his eyes. “As long as you stay with Angelo, you better behave. I won’t hesitate to try to get you away from him if I think you’re putting him in danger. And…if and when the day comes you decide to start consuming our world, I WILL fight. And so will many others. We won’t go down so easily.”

[...How interesting. I normally would laugh at such a “threat”, however…I don’t mind it.]

“W-” Angelo frowned. “What does that mean?”

“What’s it saying?” Sunny let go of his paw.

[The creatures of this world. All of you pokemon…you continue to interest me. I’ve heard of similar threats before. But when it came down to it; they were all selfish cowards. Only caring about their own survival. Which becomes their downfall. And yet, being in this world and hearing this sort of threat from Sunny…I’m finding myself believing him. He would fight me. He would try to pry me away from you, if he physically could. And the other pokemon of this world would fight as well. I do not doubt it.]

Angelo blinked. It seemed perfectly reasonable to think everyone would fight together against such a threat. Were the other worlds really so different? Even to that point?

“Uh,” the eevee hesitated. “It believes you. It’s taking your threat seriously. It does believe all of us pokemon would fight it.”

“Yeah, because it’s true!” the pikachu scoffed.

Chernobog chuckled.

[How amusing. The two of you are quite entertaining. I quite like you both.]

Angelo shuddered a little, feeling strange. He wasn’t sure what to think of that. Maybe…at least it’s better than Chernobog NOT liking them. He’s seen it angry once towards him and didn’t want to see that again. So far he’s fine with being on it’s good side.

[I might have lost my patience with you before. But after observing you two for some time along with the rest of this world…I find you all so amusing. So interesting. You continue to impress and surprise me. I simply wish to continue observing you for as long as possible.]

“Is it saying weird stuff again?” Sunny asked, looking a little worried.

“Weird in some sense,” Angelo muttered. “We’re so different from other worlds it’s been in. It likes to just observe us. It finds us interesting, and wants to keep observing for as long as possible.”

The pikachu looked surprised, and then narrowed his eyes again, crossing his arms. “That so? Well, don’t think I’ll let my guard down that easily. You better behave still.”

Chernobog chuckled.

[I will, don’t worry.]

“It says it will,” Angelo sighed.

Sunny rolled his eyes and lowered his arms. “Right. Anyway, I think dinner might be about ready, I’ll go grab it.”
