Kunihiko Yuyama stepped into the morgue, a shiver running down his spine as the icy temperature enveloped him. The acrid scent of disinfectant lingered in the air, a pungent aroma that filled his nostrils with every breath. He pulled the collar of his coat higher, the woolen fabric doing little to shield him from the frigid environment.

As he entered the room, a pathologist left, his footsteps echoing against the linoleum floor. Kunihiko watched the man leave, his face betraying no emotion. The pathologist took a deep breath and glanced back at him, daring to look into his cold expression. There was no twitching of an eyelid, no trembling of the lips, just a solid and perfect expression as lasting as stone.

The door closed, and the warmth of the pathologist's body faded with him, leaving behind the suffocating cold. Kunihiko approached the silver table where Eve lay, her body still and cold. He looked down at her face, once so full of life, now blank and expressionless. His heart ached with pain, memories flooding his mind.

He remembered the way she used to smile at him, the blush that spread across her cheeks whenever he spoke, the twinkle in her eyes when she saw him. Now, all that remained was the cold, lifeless shell before him.

A single tear escaped his eye, tracing a path down his cheek before falling onto Eve's own. It was a small, insignificant act, but it was enough to break through the veneer of composure he had maintained thus far. Kunihiko's shoulders shook as sobs wracked his body, his grief finally overwhelming him.

His hands balled into fists, and he slammed them against the table, the metallic clang echoing through the room. He kicked the nearest object, a sink used for cleaning the instruments after autopsies, the sound of the impact reverberating against the walls.

Kunihiko paced the room, his footsteps a dull thud against the floor. He couldn't bear the thought of leaving Eve behind, couldn't bear the thought of never seeing her smile again. He paused in front of her, his gaze lingering on her face, before turning on his heel and striding towards the door.

As he walked, the sound of his footsteps grew louder, each thud echoing in the otherwise silent room. He pulled the door open, and a blast of cold air greeted him, sending a shiver down his spine.

Outside, the world was still and silent,. Kunihiko breathed in the chilly air, his breath misting in front of him. He turned and looked back at the building, the windows dark and empty.

"She's gone," he whispered to himself, his voice barely above a whisper. "She's really gone."

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to push back the grief that threatened to overwhelm him. 

...

Kunihiko Yuyama sat outside on a cold winter night, huddled in his thick coat, lost in thought as he wondered if Mew truly hated him. The chill of the night had enveloped him, seeping into his bones, leaving him feeling alone and helpless.

Suddenly, the dead silence of the cold winter night was broken by the sound of footsteps. Kunihiko Yuyama turned his head and saw a slender man with short light blonde hair that covered his left eye approaching him. The stranger sported a strange uniform that Kunihiko Yuyama couldn't quite place, but he knew immediately that the man was a foreigner.

As the stranger drew closer, he smiled and said, "The name's Volo Shirona." Kunihiko Yuyama's eyes narrowed suspiciously. "And?"

Volo Shirona chuckled. "I have a friend that would like to meet you."

Suddenly, unknown Pokemon whose bodies seemed to be in the shape of alphabetical letters began to swirl around them, creating a row of children that bled from the eyes, ears, and mouth. Each drop of blood that hit the ground was like a signal for something beyond Kunihiko Yuyama's understanding.

"Oh, looks like he likes you," Volo said in a teasing voice as a bloody mist rolled all around them. "Would you like to join me? Your worth is so much more than this, join me and I can give you what you want, a chance for revenge."

Kunihiko Yuyama felt a shiver run down his spine as he looked at the stranger's inscrutable expression. He couldn't understand what this foreigner wanted from him or why he was showing him these disturbing images.

"Who are you and what do you want from me?" Kunihiko Yuyama asked, his voice shaking slightly.

Volo Shirona's smile widened. "I am just a messenger, a harbinger of things to come. As for what I want, well, that's simple. I want to offer you a chance to take revenge against those who have wronged you."

Kunihiko Yuyama's eyes narrowed as he thought about his past. The pain of losing his parents and Eve still felt fresh in his heart, and the idea of being able to take revenge against those who had hurt him was tempting.

.....

For months, the town of Spectra had been plagued by a terrifying rumor, one that sent shivers down the spines of even the most hardened residents. They spoke in hushed whispers of the ghost of the shadows, a malevolent entity that preyed on the town's most vulnerable inhabitants: its children.

At first, the disappearances were brushed off as mere accidents, the result of children wandering too far from home or getting lost in the woods. But as the bodies of missing children began turning up in front of their own houses, their lifeless forms arranged in gruesome display, it became clear that something much darker was at work.

The children's faces were frozen in expressions of horror and pain, their small bodies twisted and mangled. The word "torture" didn't even begin to describe the depth of their suffering, and the people of Spectra were left reeling with grief and fear.

For weeks, the Lords and vassals of Spectra turned a blind eye to the horrors unfolding in their midst, until the unthinkable happened: a child from one of the noble families of Ransei was kidnapped.

This time, they could no longer ignore the growing threat. The Lord of Spectra himself took charge of the investigation, assembling a team of the bravest and most skilled warriors to scour the surrounding countryside for any sign of the missing child.

Days turned into weeks, and the search party had all but given up hope when they stumbled upon a hidden entrance to an underground cavern. The air was thick with the stench of decay, and the walls were slick with moisture and mold.

As they ventured deeper into the cavern, the search party was met with horrors beyond their imagining. The bodies of missing children hung from the walls, their skin peeled back in a grotesque display of violence.

No one knew what happened that fateful night, when the search party finally caught up with the madman who had been responsible for all the untold misery of Spectra's people. Some say he went quietly, while others claim he put up a fierce fight, his screams echoing through the cavern.

But one thing was certain: the man responsible for the heinous crimes that had terrorized Spectra was finally in custody. Kunihiko Yuyama, known to many as "The Unspeakable Evil," was sentenced to death by burial, a punishment reserved only for the most heinous of criminals.

[ Kunihiko Yuyama's POV ]

I open my eyes to pitch-black darkness. It's cold, terribly cold. So cold I can't feel my fingers, can't feel any part of my body. I can't feel any emotions, just cold, cold, cold. Freezing. It's so dark, it's almost as if I never opened my eyes. Like I've been dropped in a pool of black ink and I'm drowning in it. The darkness, as suffocating as space, like I've been thrown out to the mysterious, lonely, void, where no man has before traveled.

Why haven't you answered me?

I questioned as I gazed upon the rune Volo had given me.

I move to sit up but am met with the tightness of cloth wrapped around me. It's covering my entirety, face to feet. Not leaving one limb free of its unforgiving grasp. I move around as much as I can to loosen the fabric, but this only makes it harder to breathe. I lay still, out of breath.

Before I ponder too much...

SLAM!!

The deep sound of a heavy door bangs all around me, followed by a deafening silence. Thump...

Thump...

Thump...

 I hear the sounds of footsteps creeping toward me... Shuffling sounds and a CRASH make their way to my ears, and more silence fills the room before I'm blinded by a bright light.

The cloth is lifted from my head, and I'm face to face with a strange man. 

Looks like my executioner is here.

He looked like he must be a doctor, but why would this doctor be tending to me? I notice I'm lying on a table.

The strange 'doctor' man holds up a long rope. He took the rope and used it to secure my arms to my sides.

He ignored me as if I never said anything and am merely a corpse that cannot speak. He barely glanced at me and continued wrapping my legs with the rope.

Looks like my calm before death even surprised this strange doctor.

Then again if he knew the world I had seen.

The majesty of the lord of void I had gazed upon then even I wouldn't fear something like death.

At this moment, he turned away, and I noticed a box behind him. A box by itself may not be very weird, but other than this box, the table, the man, and I, there is nothing else in the room. It's an interesting-looking box, quite long, and rather flat on the top and sides. Almost like... a coffin...

The 'doctor' turned around with a smile, he seems to have seen what I'd found but my stoic face left him speechless.

As if I was a man that knew no fear.

He told me to be quiet, he doesn't want anyone to hear me. The man held me down and pulled out a rusty needle. The 'doctor' threads a string through the needle and held it up to my mouth. 

The man stabs the needle through my lips and pulls the string through.

Only a grunt escaped my mouth as I smiled.

Something is awakening inside my heart.

When will I meet the lord, Volo ?!

I questioned and before I knew it, I breathed a breath I didn't know I was holding as he finished the sewing of my mouth and stood up. The doctor brought the now bloody red needle to my left eye. He doesn't hesitate before plunging the metal into my eyeball. I can't even scream anymore. The pain is so excruciating, and yet I can do nothing about it yet even after all of that my mind was focused on one thing.

When will the lord of void summon me?

I could hear squelching and the squishing of what used to be my eye being destroyed. But it doesn't stop there as the doctor proceeded to start sewing my eyelid shut too. And when he's done with that one, moves on the right eye.

☠-☠-☠-☠-☠-☠-☠-☠

As Kunihiko Yuyama lay in the darkness, the only sound was the faint beating of his heart. The cold abyss surrounded him, the air thick with a sense of foreboding. He could feel the weight of his own body as he struggled to lift himself up, his tongueless mouth unable to form words. He looked around, his eyes struggling to adjust to the darkness.

The ground beneath him was slick with moisture, and the walls were rough and jagged, as if carved from stone. The only light came from a small flickering flame that danced in the distance, casting eerie shadows on the walls.

As he struggled to move, he heard the sound of something slithering in the darkness. The noise was low and guttural, like the growl of an animal. He tried to turn towards the sound, but his body refused to respond.

Suddenly, the darkness parted, revealing a creature with a serpentine look. Its legs were reduced to golden-tipped spikes, and four additional golden spikes appeared near the edge of its tail. Six gold half-rings gripped its body. The back points of each half-ring had a black ghostly tendril with a red spike at its tip. The horns on its head were now facing the back. The sides of the golden "crown" covered its mouth and separated vertically like an insect's mandible. When it opened its mouth, a black vertical stripe was broken into pieces and ran down its body.

"W..who did it ?" Pulling all his strength 

Kunihiko Yuyama tried to speak, but the words caught in his throat. The creature's eyes gleamed in the darkness as it spoke in a low, menacing voice.

"Clarence Ainsworth," the creature said, its voice echoing in the darkness. 

Giratina smiled as it sensed the human's emotions.

Hate.

Anger.

Revenge.

" M...y Lor...d ..."

Kunihiko Yuyama didn't even finish his words as Giratina's eyes glowed a crimson red. 

The abyss around him began to churn and twist, as if the very fabric of reality was unraveling.

Suddenly, the darkness began to take shape, forming into a hand made of shadows that reached out to Kunihiko Yuyama. He screamed as the hand ripped through his body, amplifying his hatred to such a degree that it warped causality itself.

The surrounding abyss turned into hands made of darkness that ripped through Kunihiko Yuyama's being.

Giratina smiled at its creation before he faded back into the reverse world.
