Serena nosed him a little, then pressed forward into the cold, her claws lowered into the ice as she came to it. "Ugh, ice on a ship..." She shook her claw as if she had been stung by a Beedrill, then continued walking forward again, until the mental thrum of the Grey's cold mind laid behind a single door. "He doesn't have one...his keeper...his parents, would have done that, but he has none...Give him a name, if he likes it, he'll tell you...I know I wish sometimes, I hadn't had to choose my own name."

"There is only one Kyurem. Since Sorbet is in that world... perhaps... he would accept the name Sorbet in honor of the one in your world. It... might just sound ridiculous though... I'm not good at naming Pokémon at all..." Kyn admitted, rubbing his feet sheepishly.

"We're going to fix that, by the time my egg hatches." she blew smoke at the door. "That one...when you're ready...and have your gloves on, for goodness sake, that thing's cold enough to take off skin." She didn't add that everything in this room was cold enough to take off skin, she was just glad that her scales protected most of her from that fate. "Just...think of what they mean to you, and what you've come to know them as...how they've developed."

Kyn put on his white gloves. "These gloves are rather special. But let's not go into that for now and oh... there's N over there. Take a look."

Serena twisted her head to look at the boy that Kyn named N, the striking green hair...but above all, the fact that he looked...tired. Like someone that was weary from a long journey. Her nose twitched at the way his body moved. "Uhh...Kyn.....?" She trailed off, she wasn't sure what she was seeing. "Was N known for keeping his Pokémon in their balls...or is his companion missing?"

"N was as adamantly opposed to Poké Balls as you were were when we first met. He only kept them in them for traveling purposes, and like me, usually had two out at a time." Kyn answered, and then he looked closer at N to examine the way he looked.

As N approached closer he managed to catch a glimpse of Serena, Tenshi and Kyn.

Her nose twitched with the new scent, for now she just tilted her head and waited, her earfin membranes were slack, non threatening, even though the smoke curling from her nose might have said otherwise. "I....see..."

"Serena, why exactly did you ask me that question...? Is there something I need to know...?" He was starting to get a little worried.

"He's very very...." She trailed off as he stepped into hearing range, and finished the sentence in his mind. <Tired...I don't think it's anything to worry about....ask him where his black companion is, or better yet.....> /White One....do you feel your other half near by? I hope that I am just being ignorant and missing...something./

N did step forward, He looked over the group almost curiously. "Well, glad to see that you got to this point safely, Kyn....Reshiram....and, I'm afraid I don't know who you are yet, but you are a beauty."

/I am not certain about it right now. Perhaps it has something to do with the ice. It feels like it IS him. Like it is freezing the link between us. I cannot confirm nor deny the presence of my other's other./ The fact that Tenshi could no longer sense Zekrom was a bit disturbing to him.

"N... you should... take a rest. Where is Zekrom...? And, Reshiram's name is now Tenshi." Kyn asked, hoping that despite whatever was affecting N, he would be able to answer at least this one question.

N frowned, a very displeasing feature on his face. "Lagging behind I suspect...the corridors are more difficult for him to navigate....Zekrom should be along shortly, nothing to worry about...and I do not wish to rest. I've enough energy to keep pursuing my goals, and that is all that matters."

Serena flicked out her tongue, she still didn't speak, now was not the time, what in the world....Tenshi couldn't track him? Well, she had to try, she didn't carry the link to any of them..."My name...isn't important, only that Serenity is my embodiment." She had just given him her name, but he wouldn't know that, of course, her mind wandered, grunts that were unconscious, Pokémon that were fighting...those drew her attention...and with a twist of her mental energy, she made them drop, found the dragon she was looking for. /Two floors up....he seems to be purposely picking the route with the most opponents?/

"Well, that's good to hear. So, Tenshi tells me that you visited my home region. I think you'll find that it's a bit more green this region currently is, or ever will be." Kyn bragged, allowing himself the pride of being able to refer to his home.

Serena looked up and traced the big dragon's path with her nose, eventually she got up enough nerve to poke at Zekrom's mind for herself. Of course, immediately she was lashed out at. 'Easy! I'm friend, not foe...I am Serena...and I am pleased to meet you, I shall be more pleased to meet you when you reach us. Forgive the intrusion....would you like some assistance in getting down here?' The static feedback she received in response was enough to make her shake her head vigorously.

"Yes, I spent quite a bit of time there....and your friend...Serena? From what Zekrom reports, is quite a...telepath? Curious....I didn't think that the Bagon line could learn such things..."

"Hm, well she rather is a very special Salamence. After this is all over, perhaps proper introductions can be done. I believe that you and Serena MIGHT have some common talking points." Kyn opened the door with his gloves on, and then said, "Damn... even through the gloves I can still feel the freezing cold. It's like... worse than my Glalie's Sheer Cold attack. It's like the reverse of the deepest fires of of the hottest hell."

Serena wrinkled her nose at the mention of just how cold it was. Her fire wasn't doing it's job anymore as the door creaked open. "Our legends say that the eldest Grey's heart became ice when truth and Ideals left it; that without either of the two, every fiber of it's trust, faded from existence, crystallized."

The words weren't lost on N either, still, he let Kyn open the door; since he was the one with the gloves, instead letting Zekrom know that he needed to join them--and join them he did, shortly after the command was given.

Upon entering the room, Zinzolin, Ghetsis and a few grunts are seen in the room, that has been treated to essentially look like the area in Isshu known as the giant chasm, though a bit more wooden.

"Zinny? Is that you Zinny? Ah, I see, I thought you'd have been in jail longer after Looker had his way with you."

Serena chose to let the two friends enter, with their dragons, and took up the rear of the group, of course, as they spread out she took the middle position to separate the two legendary dragons and their companions. Her eyes focused on the creatures in the room, and instinctively snarled against the cold. She hoped that Heji was comfortable, and in any other conditions her inner fire up this high would be uncomfortable even for her, the ice on the ground had no chance against her feet, and her footprints were turned to puddles, that when her feet left them, turned to ice almost immediately in a flash freeze.

Heji was using his own electricity to heat up his own body enough to be able to tolerate the cold, but it was at the point to where his attacks would be reduced, but the scale at which they would be reduced to would still be fairly decent when combined with the rest of them.

"You again! Why do you always interfere?! All this time you've always been there interfering, and always forcing me to stay in these cold places longer than I have to! I'm fed up with it! Well that's going to end today!"

Serena twitched. "Is there a bloody reason we're listening to them talk? I could have killed them by now, three times over." Clearly, she wasn't amused at having to tolerate the lengthy speeches, but then, she also was surprised that she got a laugh for her efforts, from N no less.

"No sense for drama, I take it, Serena? Heh..."

"Serena! It's like a rule. You've gotta let the villain talk. Back when N was the villain, I let him talk. Now, Ghetsis... as Serena said... summarized, death will come swiftly to you."

"Yeah but...wait, what?" She balked, N, a bad guy? He didn't have the aura for it. "Oh, you mean I actually get to kill these guys? Finally, no more restrictions~"

N was probably as shocked by Serena liking the idea of killing these humans as she was at the news of him being on the wrong side. "It's true, he did."

"It wasn't really N though. Ghetsis was and IS still an manipulative bastard. How he managed to convince so many people to join this version of Team Plasma, I'll never know." Kyn said, preparing to release more Pokémon if necessary.

"So then, shall I...?" She admittedly, perhaps too much so, joyfully readied herself to kill the humans before her, she could feel the source of the cold somewhere around the room, and was rather sure that the mad dragon would be ready to jump in. Her very breath was steamy.

"Ghetsis literally is the embodiment of all negative things about being HUMAN and about being a Pokémon Trainer, by all means, do so!" Kyn said, able to tell that Serena WAS getting excited by the prospect.

At the go ahead, she (Guardedly) leaped forward to face them, she would give them ONE chance to defend themselves, and ONLY once. Of course, the Grunts stepped forward first, and were essentially batted out of the way.

"Wasting my time..." Her claws slashed through the trainers as if they were nothing, now that their Pokémon had been dispatched, and she didn't even give the maniac a chance to draw his Pokémon, she had the shadow claw ready to strike, when a shard of ice connected with her claws instead, making her hiss in pain. "Fucking...hell." Her claws were steamy, her heat taking the blow rather than her claws, but still. The first thing she saw were the glowing eyes, eyes that her memory still remembered to be friendly, that she still saw as Sorbet's...and she backed up a step, then another at the icy aura, snorting as he came into focus. She wasn't afraid, no...but also not a fool.

Tenshi went up next, and the first step he took was utilizing his fiery aura. He tried his best to heat up the room with it, it, and the he roared out his challenge to the Ice-dragon.

Kyn had moved behind Serena, as Tenshi had moved in front of her, as he figured that being behind Serena would offer him more protection from the heat, which he did need, but not enough to set him on fire.

Kyn was right, that Serena would protect him from the fiery aura, her wings spread out until the membrane was thin enough to be seen through, providing him the ability to still see what was going on. Of course with her positioning, she was able to provide shelter for N as well. She toned down her own fire, and rather absorbed the heat from Tenshi instead, thankful that her accessories were fireproof. Electricity crackled from somewhere behind her, and her eye darted behind her to look at Zekrom and N, who once more, were letting them do the work; she snorted, more to herself than at any specific thing. "Honestly...."

"Dammit N, Zekrom is as strong as Tenshi, if you don't do something to subdue this Kyurem then I'm going to put you in the same category as Cheren two years ago!" Kyn said, annoyed.

N looked at Kyn. "Oh, I figured you wanted to be the Hero again." He chuckled, and Zekrom stepped forward as well, it was him who leaped into battle. Only to have the Ghetsis interrupt the attack with...A DNA Link pin. He watched the thing emerge, and then crack into the Kyurem; watched the form shift curiously, and then as the pink lasers were fired, then dodged to the side, only to have it follow him. The ceilings here weren't high enough for him to fly to avoid them, and he was reduced to a stone, and then forcefully absorbed, even though Serena had run forward to try to intervene, her claws just scraping air as it was pulled out of her reach.

"Damnit!....That's...not good." Serena added obviously, she, unlike them, had watched this play out once before.

"N... .... sorry about Zekrom. But... I'm not taking anymore chances. Liru, Inferno, it's time for you to add to this mix!" Kyn said, taking their Poké Balls and pushing the buttons on them.

Serena shook. "Heji dear...it's time for you to get down." She snarled, turning to face the newly morphed Kyurem. Her tongue slithered out, to pull her goggles down. She was starting to see red anyway, she might as well use them to finish it's work.

"You IDIOT." She roared, letting it add to her rage, and stepped beside the other three, her mouth glowing with the blue green energy that marked her as a dragon, and she pushed herself to remember the times she had won before, starting her glow again, though not as strong as it would be normally.

N was in shock, it was obvious in his features, in the way he stood, his silence was enough...what had just happened? The Salamence seemed to know, and yet, she was raging, the 'embodiment of serenity' in a rage? was it really that bad...?

Heji quickly jumped from Serena, and then went into a battle stance immediately afterward. Inferno started forming the a Blast Burn in his palms, not bringing it up to full power. Liru formed a combination of Focus Blast and Aura Sphere in his palms.

As Ghetsis began to laugh, and speak again, Serena had had enough, and instead of the orb that usually marked a dragon pulse, it came out as a beam, accented with the words "SHUT UP!" Of course, Kyn had only seen this be used this way once before, in the battle with Royce, and it only happened when she was SERIOUSLY pissed off. She left him as a mark against the far wall, then snapped her jaws closed with another snarl; then turned her nose to face Kyurem, thinking, hoping, that with Zekrom in him, that she would be able to stand the sheer cold of the creature's mind; no such luck.

"Bring him down." The words were said with a bit of sadness. <I wanted to prevent this......>
