MANA-REVIVE

Characters: Manaphy, Anyone who got the telepathic message #2 - FREE FOR ALL!
What: Friends try to free Manaphy from his own defensive mechanism. This is probably mostly done through persuasion or something...
Where: BE-23 aka Manaphy and Dimentio's room
When: AFTER GIGI PLOTLINE. A DAY AFTER PEOPLE START COMING BACK TO SCHOOL.
Rating: PG

The room formerly known to be Manaphy and Dimentio's room was...strange.

Both sides of the said room was unusually messy as if they had a fight. But on Manaphy's side...lay Manaphy in the same curled-up position. Spatial distortions from the Trick Room attack had made the surroundings look almost surreal. Its effects were so strong that even the locks that Dimentio had put to keep Manaphy from escaping had been crushed and warped.

The door of the room was ajar, making it easy access to anyone in the room...

Bulbasaur hurried quickly down the hall, quickly scanning the door numbers to find Manaphy's room. To say he was worried about the other pokemon was an understatement. He had been worried before Char had taken Bulba away from the school, and it had only mounted when he had heard Manaphy's messages. If it hadn't been for the others that had left with them, Bulbasaur would have run back anyway to see what he could have done for his friend.

He had missed that, but he was determined to do what he could do for Mana now.

Bulba paused at the open door, pushing it open slightly. It almost felt like he was intruding.. no, he needed to do this. Bulbasaur let himself in, looking around with progressively widening eyes as he took in the state of the room. "...Mana?" He called out softly, trying to locate him in the room. He caught sight of him a second later and rushed over to his side. "Mana..."

Kirby had been taking a ~~long~~ nap during all the chaos up in a tree until he heard a message from one of his best pals somewhere on campus. From where the message came from, he didn't know, but he heard it was Manaphy's voice.

The pink boy hurried through the hallways as best as his feet could take him and almost went past the room Manaphy and now Bulbasaur was in. He skidded to a stop before coming back to the doorway, out of breath.

"B-Bulba..!" Kirby barely could speak as he walked up to his green buddy before looking over at Manaphy lying in the said position.

"...Manaphy...!" Kirby gasped as he fell to his knees. It was so depressing seeing his friend be in such condition...

Manaphy, despite the fact that the two friends were here, still did not move. His facial expression, which was full of confusion and pain, seemed frozen and still.

Bulbasaur nodded at Kirby, glad the pink boy was there too. He bit his lip as he looked back at Manaphy, horribly unsure of what he should do. He hated knowing his friend was sad, and that he was hurt. It seemed to go so much deeper than Bulba understood but.. Bulbasaur watched Manaphy's face, and recognized parts that he had seen on his own face before. If he knew the barest principles, maybe that was enough to give him a clue?

He gently touched Mana's shoulder for a moment. Then he changed his mind, simply pulling Manaphy into a hug the best he could. Hugs were good, right?

Kirby didn't know what to do. Words and emotions were scrambled into a complete mess in his mind and all he could do was just gaze at the blue boy who was now in Bulba's arms. What happened to make Manaphy end up in such a state...? The pained look on his friend's face made tears well up in Kirby's blue eyes.

"P-poyo, Manaphy... Come back poyo..." He said in a small, quivering voice as he moved his gaze down to the floor.

Somewhere within the recesses of Manaphy's confused and tortured mind, he felt his friends' sympathy. But did he want to move? Release himself from this mental prision or shelther he had formed and reinforced? He did not know...he really didn't!

His eyes, which had been open all this time seemed to well up with tears. But nothing else much happened.

Getting lost in the boy's dorm with all the broken doors and windows, Latias attempted to find Manaphy's room. She really wanted to help the poor boy, perhaps cheer him up with another air adventure. But first she had to locate him first.

"Mana? Do you hear me..?"

She tried calling out in her mind, projecting it with her telepathic powers. Whilst doing this she noticed two other young students in the room. She hadn't seem them before, but seeing their sad expressions, she could see that they were worried. Looking next to them she noticed Mana in a sorry state. She almost wanted to rush ahead and give the lonely figure a hug.

"Manaphy..."

Bulbasaur chewed on his lip, growing more and more worried... Somewhat to the point where he didn't even notice that the tiny female had walked in to the room behind him and Kirby. Bulba's concerns were solely on Manaphy. The blue pokemon was crying, but he was still somewhere far away from them where it seemed like it would be hard for them to do anything for him. "It's okay ba," Bulba murmured quietly to him, hugging Mana tighter. "It's okay."

"We're here for you, Mana." Bulba looked at Kirby for another confirmation. He noticed the girl now, someone he had never met before.... but he got the feeling that she was there for Manaphy too. "Please wake up ba," he said, looking back at Mana.

Kirby, on the other hand, was not taking this situation very well. He just sat there in his spot, letting his tears flow out from his eyes as he cried.

"M-Manaphyyy come back poyo!" He cried. "You promised we go to the candy store together again!"

Rest of his words were drowned in his sobbing as he continued to cry, his face getting drenched with the tears.

Walking in slowely feeling the gloomy atmosphere Latias almost cried herself. She wasn't used to being near such negativity, especially since it affected badly if felt in large quantities. But she didn't feel like leaving at all. She wanted to help Mana although she didn't know how she would do that.

"I... could try telepathically connecting us with Mana if you want..."

Nervously she came up with a suggestion. She somehow felt that these two would do a better job talking to Mana than she would. They seemed very close to him, and she would do her best to aid the group.

((PSYCHIC CONVO JUST LIEK THE ANIMU SCENES! I guess Bulba/Kirby/etc can try to communicate to him via Latias?))

Manaphy was just lost in his mind. Thoughts were too difficult...things too hard to understand...he didn't know what to do.

But he soon heard a distant, but pretty clear voice. It was Latias's:

"Are you there Mana? Please..."

Manaphy paused a little before replying; nevertheless the voice was weak, "Phiii..."

Bulbasaur blinked up at Latias and her offer. "That... that could be good," he said quietly. He had shifted a little, having taken Kirby under an arm so he could hug both of his friends at the same time. The whole feeling of the room just wanted to make him cry too.. but he wouldn't. He wanted to be okay enough for all of them.

He frowned lightly at Mana's face, then looked back up at Latias. "Could... could you tell him we're here for him ba? We..."

"We just want him to be okay. And to come back."

Kirby finally calmed down after a little while from bawling into sobs, but tears still overflowed from his eyes. He snuggled close to Bulbasaur as he continued to cry. He listened to what Bulbasaur and nodded along.

"We miss him poyo." He added, wiping his tears with his sleeves. "I want to have more fun times with Manaphy, poyo."

He continued to sob between breaths, not wanting to say anything at the moment to prevent himself from breaking down again.

"I understand..."

After hearing the two's feelings about the incident she tried to channel her mind to Manaphy's. She wasn't the best at fighting with her psychic powers but she was pretty confident in telepathic speech. She lightened up hearing that Mana had responded to her.

"Mana.... There are friends here for you, it's bulbasaur and kirby. They really miss you and wish you to be well and return... I also wish this..."

She concentrated hard on her friend lying before her. She had to get him back! She must, for his friends and for Mana. Whoever had done this to him was an evil evil man....

((Italics is thought speech okay? >: So it doesn't get confusing~))

((To Loni: It's good~))

There was a voice...it was faint but it became clearer as he concentrated hard. He was immensely relieved to hear Latia's familar voice and immediately responded.

Latias, I...I miss them too. It's been hard trying to keep myself safe. And...is...my roomate there?

She was relieved, Mana had responded. He seemed to be receiving her messages fine.

"Your room mate isn't here. Even if he was, or anyone dangerous for that matter, we're here to protect you if needed. We're here for you Mana. As you are there for us. We can protect each other, so don't leave us Mana..."

Latias started crying a little. Everyone's emotions had gotten into her. She quickly wiped her tears away. She'd leave the crying for later, for now she tried to concentrate.

I...I'll try...I might need your help though. So tired...

Although no one else in the room could feel it, Manaphy's body began to emanate intense psychic energy in an attempt to get out of his own trick room.

I'll help you the best I can.

With that Latias began channeling her energy to Mana for him to use. She felt sad she wasn't as great at this as many other pokemon was. She herself started feeling Mana's tiredness as she linked her psychic powers with his.

"Bulba... Kirby...? Could you help me please? Er... could you hold my hand and think of happier thoughts? Happy emotions make me feel stronger..."

She felt that she was asking the impossible given the situation but she could feel her energy depleting fast.

Happier thoughts? Bulba glanced at Manaphy's face and nodded, slipping his tiny hand into Latias'.

Happy thoughts.

He immediately thought of when he had first come to school and met everyone at the park. How despite the things that had happened, they had all been able to play and have a wonderful time. Manaphy, Kirby.... Squirtle... They had all quickly become close friends. Bulba hadn't told them, but that day had meant a lot to him. It warmed him inside thinking about it. Hopefully Mana could feel it too. And he thought about all the times they had laughed since, and the fun things he still wanted to do with everyone. With Mana.

Bulba tried to put a smile on his face, which was a little easier when he was thinking about all the good things, and he squeezed the psychic pokemon's hand.

Kirby wiped his face dry with his shirt, calming himself down with a sniffle before taking Latias's hand. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, thinking over the happy days he had spent with not just Manaphy, but with Bulbasaur and Squirtle too.

He had fun having hotdogs with Squirtle and Ivysaur... playing in the playground with Bulbasaur and Manaphy for the first time... Playing out in the snow on the special snow day... And last but not the least, going on the candy-shopping with Manaphy.

Thinking about all these brought a smile back to the pink boy's face.

Feeling the happiness in the room Latias smiled as well. She could feel warmth and happiness these boys felt for their friends, and lastly Manaphy. She channeled these feelings into the support for Mana as she wished him to know about these feelings as well.

Almost there Mana, you can do it

She too squeezed the two boy's hands, she could feel the strain coming.

It was a only for a few straining minutes. Soon Manaphy felt a sensation of suddenly falling into cold water before resurfacing...

There was a small gasp, and then Manaphy's eyes came back to normal. He also fell back, for his condition was not in the best of shape and he was a bit dehydrated.

"Phiii...."

"!"

Bulba kept a firm grip on the other boy so he wouldn't get hurt. "Mana!" He gave him another hug ~~effectively smothering Mana in the hundreds of Kirby tears that had drenched Bulbasaur's shirt~~, trying not to crush him or anything with his enthusiasm. "I'm so glad ba," he murmured softly, drawing back from the hug so Kirby and Latias could get in there too.

Kirby gave a small gasp as Manaphy returned to normal, and felt his tears pour out form his eyes again. He tackled the blue boy into a tight hug.

"Manaphyyy!" He sobbed, burying his face into Manaphy's shirt, drenching it with tears also. "You came back poyo!"

He continued to cry from the overflow of happiness now. He pulled away and gave a smile at Manaphy, his tears continuing to flow out from the corner of his eyes.

Manaphy felt a bit woozy from his ordeal...but he managed to crack a small smile.

"Thank...you...phii..."

Then he fainted. He was severely dehydrated.

Latias watching from afar decided to leave it to Bulbasaur and Kirby. She was happy for Mana to have such caring friends and she decided, that seeing him safe was enough for her. Leaving gave a little message telepathically to the fainted Manaphy.

Glad to see you back

She left the room and headed towards her dorm.
