“A fun-loving trickster who mastered his passion, dazzling his audience with his illusions and fashion! Even as years and wear crept onto his back, his determination never allowed him to crack!
Such inspiration, such fire for his career, to see him follow it with such love made it clear! Thusly I decided to follow  his trail, to bring joy and mystery on a broad scale~! And while though I know what I’ve learned through his name, I don’t plan to outright copy his game! With his tricky lessons and remarkable zeal, I shall use them for a career with my own appeal~”

All of a sudden, the very part of the hall that the siblings occupied grew dim. As they looked on in confusion, they noticed two silhouettes in front of faded purple lights that seemed to appear out of nowhere... both with eyes gleaming, beaming at them from their shadows...
“‘Tis the white knight and mint mage, the ones who came out on top at the stage...” whispered the top-hatted one in a delicate coquette-ish rhyme.
“A truly remarkable sight tonight, I would say...”
“And you two are now in luck as of today! For before we stand before you, so without delay...~!”
“We present ourselves to you!”
youtube
“‘Tis I, the Nebulous Illusionist, a trickster by trade! The caster of enchantments that leave you swayed! Now open your eyes, who is that you see? Why, ‘tis no one other than I--~”
Tumblr media
“A flash of fire to spark the night, blessing the stage with dancing lights! Who is the one who could muster such fiery power? It is none other than he, the Marigold Mage, the one and only--!”
Tumblr media
Alyx and Oriel merely stood there, at a loss for words from the flashy introductions that came out of nowhere. The calling out from earlier had their attention alone, but now it seems though they can’t take their eyes off them even if they tried. Was it because they were surprised? Impressed? Or just confused? It might've been the latter, as their eyes shifted toward each other before fixing them back on the magicians.
"Ahh, oh joyous, wondrous, beautiful day! We finally bear the fortune to meet the twins after a glorious fray~," the Gothitelle squealed as she jumped in place, clasping her hands together out of eagerness."
"Indeed we do, and by Tornadus' beard, you bear the might to shake kings, yes you do!" added on the shiny Mismagius, who gave a wink to the twins. Both of them seem to be quite the fans of the two, especially since before the Gallade and Gardevoir could even respond, they were presented a few gifts.
Tumblr media
"Oh, uh... wow, I uh..." Alyx was surprised, and not in the bad way either. A little confused, as it's not common for him to receive flowers of all things, to him that would be more of a date gift, but hey, a present is a present, right?
"These look lovely..." Oriel was more eager to accept them, albeit humbly, as she held the gifted bouquet into her arms before her brother did, letting herself bask in the scent of the flora before eying the two. "You have our gratitude, er, Miss Cassie, and Mr. Velius. You seem quite excited to meet us, are you, er...?"
"Fans?" Alyx chuckled as he held his own flower gift under one arm, giving a smirk.
"Ohoho, you catch on quite quickly indeed my shining blade~! You are right, we admire you both and your trade~!" Cassie's face stretched into an elated grin.
"Even 'admirers' would be putting it quite lightly, my good sir! You're both quite the inspiration to us, I'll have you know!" chimed in Velius with a bob of his head. "Ever since your first show on the glowing screens~"
"Haha, well that's cool, I'm flattered, always happy to hear we please the audience," responded Alyx with a pleased grin. Hearing that he puts on a good show, especially with one of his family members (namely Oriel), is what made part of the fighting worth it. Meanwhile Oriel felt the same, albeit with a sheepish flattered blush.
"A-ah, you're too kind, sir... though I agree with my brother, i-it's just the usual routine for us..." Oriel rubbed her arm.
"SHUSH!," exclaimed Cassie as she raised a halting finger."Balderdash, my beautiful seabreeze sage~! Your displays are among all the rage! Ah, it makes me wish we could do more than offer you gifts, yet when it comes to ideas, I'm at the cliffs..." Cassie tapped her chin before raising said finger up, a big smirk popping up as she reached into her coat to pull out a deck of cards.
"Ooh, how about this, if you have a minute! Something exciting for this honored visit!"
Tumblr media
"... Card-based fortune-telling...?" Alyx didn't know what to think, scratching the back of his head with a hesitant glance of disbelief. "That's uh..."
"Well, i-it's a free performance, I fail to see why not... in the end, it's just a game, correct?" Oriel debated with a soft smile, in order to have her brother comply. The Gardevoir faced Cassie with a bow of her head in agreement. "We'd be happy to partake. It could be interesting, perhaps even fun..."
"If that's the case, then very well~! Relax as I flip the cards with a spell~!"
Cassie wasted little time showing her graceful talents, flipping the cards with stylish, shimmering cycling flair as a means of shuffling the deck before finally drawing three cards, presenting them out to face the twins. Upon seeing them, however, Cassie seemed a bit shocked.
"Ooh..."
Tumblr media
"What're you going on about," remarked Alyx with a quirked brow. "All I see is a picture of a Cubone, a Darkrai, and a Zweilous... what's the big deal?" he interrogated as he overlapped his arms.
"I'm sure there's a meaning to it, brother... care to elaborate for us, Cassie? Velius?"
"Allow me the honors, milady~" bowed the Mismagius as he held up his wand, pointing to the cards one at a time.
"The Cubone is a symbol of loneliness as well as separation. With it being the first card, it seems to remark how you two must've had a past of isolation, whether from each other, or perhaps others...?"
" ... Er... that's..." Oriel looked at her brother, who returned the glance to her. That... was peculiar, but they couldn't help but falter in order to stop themselves from becoming perturbed.
"Uh, didn't you say you'd be looking into our future? Didn't say anything about the past," the Gallade called out with a flat look.
"Fortune-reading is more than just the future, my good sir! But if it upsets you so, I shall carry on!" Velius cleared his throat and pointd to the middle one, the Darkrai.
"The Abyss Pokemon, Darkrai, symbolizes omens, whether you're enduring them, or have yet to face them yourself, might be coming your way in the near future," the Mismagius clarified, noticing the siblings' reactions. "Er, you alright, milady...?"
Oriel tried to hold back a gulp. Omens... She knew Darkrai was commonly known as the envoy of nightmares, which is what she has been dealing with lately... this was hitting a little too close to home for her. To shake her from her stare, Alyx gently patted her back before glancing back at the magicians.
"Uhh... riiiight. Why don't we just get to whatever the two-headed lizard means?"
"As you wish~" The wand's fire stone gestured to the Zweilous. "The card for the future, it represents potential turmoil between those that are dear to you... friends, family, lovers... if the two of you are not careful, there might be a divide amongst you, or perhaps even yourselves. That's what it means."
"I..." Oriel was already a little put off by how spot-on the first two cards were... this really did feel like a prod into her head, and the meaning behind the dark dragon didn't feel particularly surreal. Meanwhile Alyx gave a hefty sigh, feeling how uncomfortable her sister was. Thusly, the Gallade gave Cassie and Velius a flat look.
"So you really think that's gonna happen, huh?"
"Well, it's a possibility, but then again it IS fortune-telling, so perhaps it has set its course, or it could be a mere possibility. Regardless, i--" Velius was cut off by Alyx before being sarcastically responded to.
Tumblr media
"I beg your pardon, sir...?" Velius tipped his head in confusion. "I DID say it was fortune telling, after all. Moreover, t'was little more than a free-showing, it could be nothing more than possibilities rather than certainties, I assure you."
"Hrmph, I guess so, but still..." Alyx pouted as he noticed Oriel still looking a little unenrved. She seemed to be relaxing now, but his side-stare did not go unnoticed by the showy enchanters. Cassie was quick to prance up and make the apology first.
Tumblr media
"Errr... uh, okay, sure, thanks for the apology I guess? I guess I shouldn't have been so snarky, it just seems to be bugging my sis, that's all."
"Oh it is quite alright, your reaction is fair! She is your sibling, why wouldn't you care~? 'Tis admirable for you to show worry for your sister, you're a very good brother to her, mister~" Cassie giggled; if her mask didn't hide it, she would've winked at him. Alyx could only quirk a brow, while Velius floated over to Oriel with a sheepish look of his own.
Tumblr media
"Anyway, uh..." Alyx interjected while rubbing the back of his head. "Was that it? Uh, anything else you two needed?"
"Hrm..." Cassie tapped her chin as she looked off up in the corner while leaning next to Velius. "Not that I can think of..." A soft nudge was adminsitered to the ghost.
"Ah, o-of course, yes, one more thing!" The shiny mage whipped out a pad and pen, smiling as he presented himself to the siblings.
Tumblr media
"Huh?"
"You... you desire our signatures? Truly...?"
"Absolutely, milady! I'd love them! If it's alright with the two of you of course~!"
This was a nice return to flattery for the two of them. Feeling a blush coming on, the brother and sister suppressed it before happily taking the notepad and writing utensil, marking their own names into the paper before handing it back to Velius proudly.
"There ya have it bud."
"OH RAPTURE~!" Velius spun in the air excitedly as a fire burned in his eyes.
"Hah, what a ham..." Alyx smirked, before hearing his stomach rumble. Oh yeah... lunch.
"Uh, look, as fun as it's been with uh, you two, we're supposed to meet up with the rest of our team to grab a bite to eat, so... why don't we meet up some other time, huh?"
"Oh absolutely, do not let us keep you!" Velius nodded sharply, clutching the notepad to himself.
"Yes yes, please, go and on and nourish~! For now we shall let this memory flourish~" Agreed Cassie, while waving them off. "Ta-ta~!"
"Uh, yeah, sure, ta-ta to you too, bye," Alyx waved half-way before making his way over to the foodcourt. "C'mon sis!"
"Ah, o-one moment brother!" Oriel approached Cassie with clasped hands, smiling up at the taller Gothitelle.
Tumblr media
"He doesn't seem to understand how your kind works... how you read futures with the stars and all. So forgive him for being skeptical, but your fortune-telling, your future-reading overall... it was, ah, remarkably accurate. I would like to call on your assistance should I have any other questions... is that fair to you, madame?" The Gardevoir pleaded with clasped hands, while Cassie sported another cheerful smile.
"My newly-found friend Oriel, you have my word! Just call by name, and I'll flock to you like a bird! Now go on, meet with your brother! There shall always be another time to meet up together~!"
"Ahh, m-my gratitude! Farewell," and with that, Oriel hurried off after Alyx, leaving the two magicians to talk amongst themselves.
Tumblr media
"You're most welcome my friend~ I'm always willing to help 'til the end!"
"And how!" chortled the ghost. "You've done excellently to assist me with the courage to see them, I believe we've left quite an impression, did we not?"
"Oh how I agree! Their smiles were fulfilling to see! But if I may say..." Cassie smirked, leaning over to her friend.
Tumblr media
"Now come, now that it's said and done, why don't we walk around? Surely there's a soul or two that are willing to talk abound~"
"Cassie," Cooper whined in his nerdier, true voice, rolling his eyes with a strained laugh.
"So sorry, 'tis habit after all~"

Cassiopeia: “Coupled with my former career as full-time magician, I feel it blends very nicely with my vision~
Now tell me, fellow Gothitelle, have I explained them to you well? Or shall I delve deeper into their spell~?”

-CLING!- -SHWING!- -SHREEEE--!-
The battle was well underway and packed with energy. The white Gallade and the Wirliquen slid and clashed blades with one another in a literal dance of swords, sparks lighting the air as they swapped blows. Alyx was powerful, but Clarette was quick and tricky; and enjoying every second of it.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile Oriel went toe-to-toe with Alma. The sad banshee circled Oriel, face elongated and eyes alight in a haunting shadowy visage as they unleashed Ominous Wind on the the psychic fairy. Oriel anticipated this, loading up a Shadow Ball  to lob at her ghastly opponent. She could not get out of the way in time of the spectral howling sent her way, but she managed to weather it well, only skidding back.
“Nnh!”
Oriel stood her ground, now realizing she was back-to-back with her brother, as well as how the jester and banshee too stood together. She felt like this was the best opportunity for a team attack, a fusion move.
Tumblr media
The siblings called to one another, nodding as Oriel went into position. While Alyx leaned back and loaded his left blade with a Psycho Cut, Oriel supported his arm with psychic as she fused her Moonblast with his esper edged. Within moments, the energy expanded and took on a new form; a massive sword filled with fairy essence. As beautiful as it was, it also looked very deadly.
Tumblr media
The sight of such a fused move did not escape the crowd, especially not Zaratho's attention. The Bisharp's eyes dilated, as if something was ignited in his memory. Lifting his head off his hand, he edged closer from his seat to make sure he wasn't just seeing things.
" ... A combination of psychic energy and Moon Blast... the Sylph Sword...? ... not often they go together, especially in that particular shape..."
But there was more. While still holding up Alyx's arm, Oriel reared her arm back, loading up a ghastly fire. However, there was something different about it; it was identifiable as Will'o'Wisp, yet the colors and behavior... it wasn't dark nor corrupt; it was bright and elegantly waving... as if bearing the essence of righteous spirits...
Tumblr media
The dark knight pondered... there was no mistaking that type of Will'o'Wisp, or rather, the Will'o'Wight, as it was called back in his homeland. This surely had his attention... the more he saw these two fight together, the combinations and moves they would execute as well as how they appeared, a sense of nostalgia surged through his mind...
Tumblr media
Zarathos pondered aloud, not caring whether his neighboring audience members could hear him. He was too entranced by seeing this, remembering these moves in particular.
" ... As a matter of fact..." he mumbled, "... the siblings seem to feel familiar as well..."
Tumblr media
In an instant, the Bisharp's mind raised a familiar visage back in his time of war. That one warrior... the true white knight of the past... As the image pieced itself together, the black knight mumbled to himself further, intrigued by this sense of what feels like may be a revelation...
Tumblr media
His trip through his mind's memory hall was cut short, as Alyx and Oriel combined their moves together to deal a devastating blow to the opposite team. Sylph Sword and Will'o'Wight, executed together, caused a brilliant display.
Tumblr media
It was like a light show, if light shows were also extremely dangerous. The entire stadium was cast a glorious rosy magenta glow, filling everyone with the warmth of the light. Several were impressed from the exhibition, as well as the raw, almost explosive power of the combined moves...
Tumblr media
Caprice was entranced, fangirling internally as well as externally from the radiant carnage that just occurred.
"AHHHH, S-SO COOL~!" she squealed.
"And it seems with but a flash of light, we're nearing the end of the fight~" whispered the Gothitelle to her Mismagius companion, quite impressed from the battle thus far.
"I would have to agree, milady... I'm afraid I'll go blind if I keep my lenses on," joked the dressy wizard-looking phantom.
"WHOOHOO, GO BRO AND SIS, YOU CAN DO IT~!!" Whooped Lixue while circling her arms, giggling excitedly for her adopted siblings.
"Ssss... expect nothing less," muttered Masou. "They put on a decent show..."
Even the dark templar himself was on the edge of his seat... his interest locked on the siblings. That absolute POWER... the combination of moves, their teamwork, their... familiar sensations...
Tumblr media
"... It could be mere coincidence, yet... it is worth investigating, once the match is over," he muttered quietly to himself. All he had to do was wait for the fight to be over, which may not be longer now...

“You... ll ne...r see... th... n... i... my kingdom...”
Those were the last words that that the Gardevoir ears could make before seeing  the figure tower over her, raising their weapon to the heavens before swiping it down, aiming for the poor sylph’s face.
Oriel could only gasp and cringe before the dark world she envisioned was shattered, rising up and letting out a shriek from the sheer shock.
Tumblr media
“WHOA!”
Alyx leapt back and raised his shoulders, startled from his sister snapping up away so suddenly. He took a moment to register the situation before seeing Oriel trying to regain her composure as quickly as possible, holding her head. A pounding headache it seems... her face had both fear and heavy concern smeared across her face.
Nervously, Alyx approached Oriel before sitting down next to her, looking at her with a worried glance.
“Oriel...?” the Gallade called warily. “... You... uh, you alright there?”
“N-nngh...” Oriel could only groan, mumbling the following to herself, “... why...? Why did this come back...? I thought Terminus cleared it...”
The white one had no idea what she was talking about, but even in his confusion and lack of context for the situation, he placed a hand on her shoulder to comfort the girl.
“Sis...?”
“I... I-I’m fine...” she sighed exhaustedly, holding her head. “ ... i-it was just a nightmare... that’s all...”
Tumblr media
“ ... I’ll be fine, I promise, brother...” Oriel reassured, even as her palm remained on her head.
Alyx could only wince, not convinced in the least. “Well... I was coming to tell you that our match is coming up... I was looking for you, had no idea you came back to our room to nap. Were you really that tired?”
“E-er...” she stuttered, blinking her eyes before sighing defeatedly. “... Yes...”
“Mmh,” the Gallade quirked his brows, still holding onto her. “... you have to plan your naps better. Now c’mon, our match is coming up, we got a doubles today. You knew we did.”
“R-right...” the Gardevoir sighed, before rising up with her brother. “Let us proceed, shall we?”
“Yeah, for sure.”
Tumblr media
As the siblings went down the halls, a blaring announcement was made in the intercom:
“ATTENTION, ALYX AND ORIEL! YOUR MATCH BEGINS IN THREE MINUTES! PLEASE MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE FIGHTING RING IMMEDIATELY!”
“O-OH GOODNESS!!” Exclaimed the Gardevoir, before Alyx added in with an alarming reaction of his own.
“AW CRAP, WE GOTTA HUSTLE! C’MON!”
Needless to say the two of them bolted down the hall. Thankfully their sprinting could shave them some seconds, perhaps just enough to make it on time. On their way towards the entrance, they saw their manager Rhoslyn, and even SHE seemed to be stressed out over how close they were cutting it.
“THERE YOU TWO ARE!!” she yelled before scramblingly waving her claws towards the hall that leads to the arena.
Tumblr media
“FASTER! THE NEW ANNOUNCER GIRL’S BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TWO ESPECIALLY!”
Thankfully they had half a minute before they had to step out into the steps of the ring, the collective sighs of the audience filling the air. Once the brother and sister had their fill of air from running so quickly, they pulled themselves together and stepped up to the ring, just in time to be announced.
Tumblr media
The crowd was lively and there were lights everywhere. Everything was set for the upcoming battle, and as Rhoslyn mentioned, there was certainly a new face in the middle of it. Probably recently hired.
Tumblr media
The audience roared with the Meloetta’s energy, which filled the mythical Psychic Pokemon with equal amounts of enthusiasm. She spun the mic around in her fingers cheerfully before clarifying who she was.
“SUH-WEET! THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKIN’ ABOUT, AW YEAH~! Alright everyone, the name’s Caprice, and here is match you’ve been waiting for tonight! Let’s greet the challengers huh~?”
Caprice swung her attention over to one side where the siblings stepped out onto the ring.
Tumblr media
“ALYX! ORIEL! ALYX! ORIEL! ALYX, ORIEL!” Cheers filled the air for those two after the Meloetta introduced them. The girl beamed at the sight of them, so excited to announce for the siblings. She seems to be a fan of them herself. Soon she brought the crowd’s attention to the other side.
Tumblr media
“Huh...” Alyx commented, stroking his chin at the opponents. “Wenshreek? Wirliquen?”
“I’ve never heard of such Pokemon... they must be new...” Oriel added on.
“Heh... all the more reason to get pumped. C’mon sis, let’s show ‘em what we’re made of.” Alyx flashed a grin at his sister.
“... Gladly,” affirmed Oriel before synchronizing her rhythm with her brother, her eyes alighting with determination.
Meanwhile, in the crowd, there were some Pokemon that seemed particularly eager for them as well, some magician-looking Pokemon...
Tumblr media
And further in the back, there was the Black Knight himself, looking bored yet anticipating. It was rare or him to actually come to the audience seats... hearing how renowned these two were finally tugged at his curiosity.
Tumblr media
He needed to see their prowess for himself, to gauge its worth. THEIR worth.
“M’KAY, ARE WE READY?!” Caprice pumped up the crowd once more. After reeceiving an uproarious “YES,” she threw down and yelled,
“THEN LET’S RUMBLLLLLLE~!!”

And here’s a kid from an upcoming character Cassie and Teiden, Lloial the Pawnita! I imagine the little thing would learn from both parents but would prooobably find more fun in Cassie’s ways.

And another kid with Cassie, this time with Roldabonz! A Flaafy / Gothorita-ish mix named Auriana! A child who lusts for adventurous new feats of excitement like both parents, but winds up becoming too ambitious in their searches for new thrills with their skills that they probably wind up becoming a flashy villain, much to the dismay of both Rol and Cassie. FUN TIMES! I can only imagine how Rol especially would feel about that!
