Day ?
Latias shook herself dry as she surfaced from the Terraria River. She’d already scouted out her assigned area for any humans several times over, not finding anything. So now, she was just waiting for her brother to come and find her to bring her back to the Shrine.
“Maybe I’m due for a nap. That bath has me all tired now.” Latias thought. She’d been tempted to try and make contact with some of the New Order, maybe try to be the go between girl for a peace treaty. But Latios had shouted at her when she suggested it, saying they couldn’t be trusted.
“Unlike the rest of them, I remember how things used to be when we all cooperated.”
Latias took off at a slow speed from the river banks, now feeling a little depressed. She hated all this anger, not having the freedom she used to. Latios hardly let her go out for some lfight anymore, afraid she’d be attacked. Well here she was, out in the wilderness, and no one was launching deadly energy attacks at her.
“Oh, hello Latias. Fancy meeting you here.”
Latias almost jumped out of her skin at the voice. She swung around, letting out a small scream.
“Aww, I’m not that scary am I?”
Hoopa floated behind her, twirling one of his rings around his arm.
“Oh, Hoopa. You scared me.” Latias said, her heart slowing down.
“I get that a lot. No one seems to like me very much.” Hoopa pouted.
“Oh, don’t say that. I think you’re pretty cute.” Latias said, trying to cheer him up.
“Why thank you Latias. If only the rest of the New Order was as nice as you.”
“Yeah, I hate this whole war. I’d have stayed neutral, but my brother wanted to keep me safe.”
“Well, too bad he failed.” Hoopa said, a wicked smile spreading across his face.
“What?” Latias said, sensing some buildup of power in Hoopa.
“Sorry to have to do this. Actually, I’m not sorry at all.” Hoopa said. Before Latias could react, Hoopa tossed one of his hoops at Latias. It expanded in size until it easily could fit over her. As it passed over her, Latias was pulled inside the portal that formed inside the Hoop. For just a moment, Hoopa saw a cry for help form on her lips, but she’d been pulled inside Hoopa’s personal dimension before any sound could be made. The Hoop shrunk back to normal size, floating back into Hoopa’s outstretched hands.
“Ha. I caught a Latias.” Hoopa happily said.
“Would I like to nickname the Latias? Sure. How about “Hoopa’s little Hostage.” Has a nice ring to it, wouldn’t you agree?” Hoopa spoke to the hoop, petting it.
“Ooh, I can just imagine Latios. “Oh, where’s my sister? I’d give anything to have her back! What’s that, the plates? Sure, take them all! I’m so worthless, I can’t do anything myself! Wah wah wah!” Maybe I should send a little incentive to have them get those plates together faster. Maybe a finger, a tuft of fur. Or does she have feathers? I guess I’ll figure out when I shave some off. Or maybe cut off her entire wing and send that? Ooh hoo hoo, I can’t wait to get started.”
Hoopa tossed his other hoop into the air, forming another portal. He’d torture Latias later. Right now, he’d head back to Mt. Providence and visit some of his old friends there. Maybe catch up with Xerneas. Hoopa passed through the hoop, vanishing. The hoop itself blinked out of existence seconds later, leaving no evidence of what had happened.
