Lane returned to her present with a crashing impact as dramatic as the one that had taken her away. She was better at it—she managed to hold herself in the air as the transformation faded, and catch herself when she lost the wings. Mewtwo and Elisa were standing exactly where they had been, watching with the same nervous concern. "You can't go without me!" Elisa said, nudging up against her. She wobbled, nearly collapsing under the pressure. That particular transformation would probably…-

The True-Myth Club had rented out the entire Lilycove convention hall. No one made fun of Lane's costume as she glided through the dealer room, tablet under one arm. Her outfit was as pink as the tail trailing behind her. Keeping the damn thing while she was human amounted to nearly six feet of furry, mischievous fluff, but at least she'd cut a hole for it this time. Maybe the leader of one of the world's largest teams should dress with a little more dignity, but that word had barely even…

Lane tucked her tail in close, then shot down through the trees, weaving slow enough that she could easily avoid the worst of the branches and spines. What might've been an annoying thorn when she was human easily could've impaled her now. She probably wouldn't be much use to her friends if she landed in front of them as a corpse. A few dangerous seconds and she was through, flying lower and lower towards the bridge from one side. The obstruction that had stymied her friends completely was…

They hiked together for hours through the jungle, long enough that Lane grew tired of flying and found a more comfortable perch on Elisa's shoulder. She had an excuse: she had to save her strength in case they encountered anything dangerous! There were plenty of dangerous things out in the jungle, though not nearly as many as they'd been led to believe. "None of these Pokémon attack humans on sight," Dominic said, when they were finally settling down to camp for the night.…

Elisa was right to be worried about the trip. The primary threat came not from the wild Pokémon that separated them from the middle of Mt. Union— with the altitude rising and less available to eat, there were far fewer gigantic predators and dangerous fully evolved dragons. Mostly they saw birds and rodents, with an occasional brave deerling somehow scaling the slope not far away. This was actually an opportunity for Lane, who floated over to the little green Pokémon, ignoring her friends'…

There was nothing Lane could do. She could feel the power working on them, but had neither the skill nor the strength to stop it. She could only watch, horrified, as both her friends transformed. She slumped to the dirt, tail wrapping around her as her ears pressed flat. She wanted to vanish, to curl up so small that she'd disappear. For a few seconds, it almost seemed like she would. Her paws faded, becoming completely transparent. She gasped, and the effect faded. The least she could do was…

"It's called Starfall," Lane began. "Korina didn't discover it—her ancestors built it. From what I've seen, they came here from somewhere incredibly far away. Nothing humans could do right now. This place makes our best space-station look like a toy." "I'd never believe that on the surface," Elisa muttered, pawing at her food. One thing they hadn't been given was utensils—evidently that was too human an expectation. She nudged her food, then…

Lane probably shouldn't have been so excited about something so simple as a bath. But with as busy as Korina had kept her the last week or so, there had been very little time for anything quite so relaxed. Granted, the process of taking Elisa along made the trip a little more complicated, since she had to levitate the other cat through the air. Despite more time for practice, Elisa hadn't yet mastered anything as dramatic as levitation. "Are you feeling better?" Lane asked, as they…

They followed Dominic’s scent as best they could through the ruins of Starfall. They passed more than one of the oversized machines that Lane had been afraid of, and she slowed to look between them. She couldn't shake the fear that her friend had fallen into one of the complex mechanical devices and been squashed to paste. But they found no corpses squished into the ruins, or any sign that Dominic had suffered critical injuries. "I've never even been this far," Lane said, after…

Lane and Elisa did not even have the luxury of a slow trip back to the surface to try and make sense of what had just happened. No sooner had the mythical Pokémon vanished from ahead of them than the ground began to shake. More lightning arced from the sphere, reaching closer and closer towards them. Lane lifted up into the air, flying as fast as she could through a set of oversized bulkhead doors and dragging Elisa along behind her. No sooner were they through than the doors slammed shut behind them.…
