Chapter 5
Kita with his Luxray, Alberto with his Lickilicky and me with my Torny reached the Space-Time Towers. As in my dream from last night, they stood tall up in the sky. But there was no heat nor could I feel anything strange standing in front of it.
We went into the towers and I did look around for the stairs of my dream. However, right there where I saw them last night, there was just the ground! Nothing else!
Kita now told me that he had dreamed about this place too and knew how to open the hidden path, that was what he was dreaming about last night. He just couldn't tell me before because he just thought that this would sound too crazy. Kita then stepped to the wall north of the room, where a lot of round disc-like plates were hanging on the wall. Kita started to climb up the wall and turned a few if the discs around. Firstly I didn't really know what he was doing there because he randomly seemed to turn each of them. But slowly I could see that the patterns on the discs started to show letter.. no a word. "RELIEF"
Once Kita was done turning the discs he stepped to the most right bottom one and pressed something like a button what was in the center of the disc.
The ground started to shake a little and there it happened, the ground opened up where I did see the opening in my dream last night and the stairs appeared.
We nodded to each other and started to go down the path.
-
Lickilicky wanted to walk in front with Luxray, me right behind it, then Kita, Alberto and Torny as rearguard. The stairs did lead us down into the underground in a wide circle. It was dark and we only did have one small lamp with us, but Torny's flames also helped to illuminate the surroundings a bit.
It took a few minutes until we reached the end of the stairs. Here the path widened as it also did in my dream from last night. On the walls I noticed the flame-holders where I did see purple light in my dreams. I asked Torny to to ignite one if the holders to see what happened.
Kita shouted "No!" but was too late, Torny already used a small flame thrower and the holder burned. Kita started to apologize that he didn't tell more about his dream, because there I was doing the same and as soon as the holder burned something bad started to happen...
And it happened.. Suddenly the holder's flame turned from normal red into the purple of my dream. And then the flame started to jump around to the other holders along the path! Kita shouted, that we shall get ready to fight! He dreamed that as soon as the flames burned in his dream, a few Munna did appear and attack us!
But they did not.. everything reminded silent...
We decided to slowly continue down the path. Every turn made us more nervous. And also the air started to feel warmer, and heavier. Was this because of the purple flames? We didn't know.
Another few pairs of stairs leaded us deeper and deeper.
Alberto was sure, we did already reach the level of the river which flows in the valley around the City.
I remembered everything fro my dream.. three more turns until we would reach the gate... two... last one... and there we were... a dead end!? I was sure, there was a gate in my dreams!
Kita told us. he did also see that place in his dream but with the dead end and me standing in front of it and in the dream he then pulled me away from the wall. So that's why I did suddenly got tracked away in my dream? Was it really Kita's doing?
Again Kita apologized but it all did sound just too weird for him to tell us the truth. I told him that it's okay but asked if he knew anything more that might could help us. He didn't.
Together we searched on the wall for something like a button or a handle but didn't find anything... but wait, there right in the middle was a small symbol engraved, it looked like a ~ but with two waves. We made a picture of it. Alberto and Lickilicky suddenly cringed and nodded to each other. Then Alberto told us that he knows that sign. It appears also on one of the music discs they use for the towers to let them ring. The music on it is called "The Oración". Alberto took a small leave out of his bag and explained to us the small story of the time when Darkrai did fight against Palkia and Dialga and that the Oración helped to save the city. He pushed the leave on his lips and started to whistle said melody.
Once he finished, the sign on the wall started to glow purple, and then the light expanded over the whole wall and soon it disappeared, revealing the door I did see in my dreams behind it!
And there it was again, the voice from my dream! "Please let me out of here!" we all could hear it! We rushed to the gate and tried to push it open. But it again did not move.
Then I remembered that we had to use our mind to imagine it opening...
And it worked! Slowly the gate opened! We could step into the room.
Inside we did find many Munna which were looking at us dangerously. And in the center was a BIG one.. but it looked different.. I pulled out my pokédex and it told me that this was a Musharna, the evolved from of Munna. Musharna seemed to sleep but it spoke to us with telekinesis and asked us "Did you come to rescue me?" We asked Musharna why it was in here and so it told us its story.
