"Eh. Not exactly. I need somewhere to train Aipom and Quilava and Bayleef though." Cody replied. "But it should be a long one. I think we need to talk about alot of things."

"Ok, well let's fly off to somewhere in Johto. Think of a place on the way." She settled herself upon Star's back and before she knew it, Aquos Island was shrinking into a little dot in the distance. "Whoa, someone's happy to finally be out of the ball." Star screeched with delight and rolled over in the air a couple times. Maddy clung onto her, trying not to fall off.

"Ok, cool," Cody replied calmly. Flygon saw Star flip in the air and easily followed. They were Johto bound.

Star slowed down to let Cody catch up. Maddy looked over at the other trainer. "So what did you want to talk about?" She started thinking up the places they could go visit.

"Everything. Things in the past, present, and what might happen in the future." He replied. "I would almost race you, but I think I want to take my time flying. Plus, Flygon needs it. He has been trapped in his ball for so long. It's rediculous."

Maddy just watched the horizon with a blank expression. "I don't like the past..." Visions of fire and smoke flashed before her very eyes to the point where she was convinced they were really there. She closed her eyes for a few moments and then opened them, to find that it was only ocean looming before her. "Let's go to Ecruteak... I have to see something..."

"Then we talk about what's going on now and possibly later. I'm all up for going Ecruteak. It's kinda creepy, but I like it." He looked over at Maddy and smiled.

Maddy just kept her head turned away, refusing to look at him. She watched as they left the sea behind them and the land of Johto raced beneath them. Strangely enough, she could see better than before. She watched the forests below and noticed that even from this height she could pick out the tiniest leaves on the trees. Every little detail stuck out. Ecruteak came into view and she pointed Star down towards the Brass Tower memorial. Star pulled into a steep dive, her wings tightly against her sides. When they were mere feet from crashing into the ground, she unfolded her wings and landed gracefully. Maddy stepped off Star and fell to her knees, suddenly feeling weak. Star wrapped a wing around her trainer, protectively.

Cody hopped off Flygon behind Maddy and ran up to her. "What happened?" He asked, concerned. "Are you ok?" It was probably a stupid question, but it was his nature.

She coughed into her hand, and noticed that there was a few spatters of blood there. She thought nothing of it and wiped her hand off in her pants. She got to her feet. "I'm ok. Just a bit light-headed from all this flying." She recalled Star and looked over to find a great burnt patch of ground lying before her. "So... this is where it happened..." She went over and sat on the gate that surrounded the Brass Tower ruins. Looking over her shoulder, she pictured where her and Ike had been standing that night.

"I hate to ask you what happened, but um... What exactly happened here?" Cody asked, wanting to know more about when she was gone.

Maddy looked down at the ground, refusing to look at the charred ruins. "While me and Ike were on our travels through time... we came back to a time when the Brass Tower was still standing so we could retrieve a feather from Ho-oh to complete the GS Ball." A shudder went down her spine and she crossed her arms over her stomach. "We were ambushed by Shadow at this very spot. They managed to follow us through time and I tried to use me powers to fend them off." She conjured a small purple flame and watched as it freely floated around her left hand in circles, the scar glowing slightly. "I lost control and burnt down this very tower... That was the very day I betrayed Aqua to join Shadow."

"Oh, really? Is that why you wanted to come here?" he asked quietly. Things were starting to fall into place bit by bit. Though he couldn't change the past, he wanted to be there for her as much as possible.

"I burnt down this tower and betrayed everyone and more... and for what?" The flame Maddy had been playing with rested in her palm, and she clenched her fist over it, a small line of black smoke escaping between her fingers. "I shouldn't be here..." Not thinking, she reached for the medallion around her neck and held it gently in her hands. "He left me... now there's no one..." She went blank, her mind drifting off into some other little world. She fingered the medallion and the large crack that ran down it's middle.

((Sorry. My laptop is all kinds of jacked up. But I fixed it ^.^))
"Let's get you out of here," Cody said and walked her away from the ruins. "It's gonna be ok."
