Chapter 3
Arceus stared in disbelief at the charred rubble that was once his lair.
"These two buffoons exploded," Dialga nodded to the unconsious forms of Giratina and Palkia after seeing Arceus's "WTF" look.
"But they can't learn Explosion," Arceus replied.
"They had mental breakdowns."
"Again?"
"Yep."
"Uh...I'm going now," said Boris, zooming toward the entrance.
Arceus blocked his way. "You again?" he growled. "How many times do I have to do tell you that I don't need a secretary?"
"I wasn't trying to be your secretary!" Boris cried in inconvincing wounded tones.
"Yeah you were," Dialga said. "You told us that. You even asked if we had an appointment."
Arceus glared at Boris, who blurted out, "But I live to serve you!"
"That's not saying much, considering you're a ghost," Dialga said.
Boris glared at Dialga, then said to Arceus, "You can't just toss me out! I'm burned!"
Arceus opened his mouth to speak when suddenly Celebi appeared above Dialga's head.
"What happened here?" she asked, looking around the ruined cavern.
"
They happened," Dialga gestured to Giratina and Palkia.
"I'm going to go get Groudon and have him fix my lair," said Arceus."Celebi, heal everyone, mm'kay?" He Teleported away.
"I'm not going to heal you," Celebi told Dialga nastily. "You stole my title as a time traveler!"
"So? You can do other stuff. Like heal. So heal me."
Celebi ignored him and used her healing powers of d00m on Boris.
Then on that very moment the Evil Munchkin Jigglypuff entered the lair. Cackling evilly, he prodded Dialga's blackened leg with a crimson trident. It hurt a lot to have three sharp prongs poking a third-degree burn.
"That's right, do that," Celebi encouraged.
"Ouch! That hurts! Stop it!" Dialga snapped at the EMJ, but he prodded even harder. And got Roar of Time'd across the lair.
"Heal me now, or I'll do the same thing to you!" Dialga snarled at Celebi.
"Fine." She stretched out her arms over him and closed her eyes.
“Well?” Dialga asked after ten seconds of waiting.
“It takes a while,” Celebi snapped, opening one eye.
“It didn’t take a while when you were healing that annoying Spiritomb!”
“Yes, but I don’t like you, so I’m prolonging it.”
“Oh come on.”
More waiting.
“You know, this really hurts, so hurry up!”
POOF.
Dialga was completely healed. He was relieved- until he heard familiar voices behind him.
“Yay! The map wasn’t damaged!’
“Let’s go find Arceus!”
Dialga turned around and saw Palkia and Giratina, fully healed and looking around the destroyed lair.
“You healed them too?” he asked Celebi.
“You were being rude,” she answered simply.
“Hey Diamond, where’s Arceus?” Palkia asked.
“Firstly, my name isn’t Diamond, it’s Dialga, and secondly, Arceus left to find Groudon.”
“Liar, he’s right there!” Giratina nodded to where Arceus had just appeared, grumbling.
“You’re a liar,” Palkia told Dialga. “You lied, liar-“
“Okay, I get it!” Dialga snapped.
“Groudon said he was too tired to come fix my lair right now, in case you’re wondering,” Arceus said.
“Hey Arceus, what does this map say?” asked Palkia, running up to Arceus and thrusting the map in front of him.
“I don’t know,” Arceus replied crossly. “Go ask Uxie.”
“To Uxie!” Palkia declared.
