Iron Valiant

(Prologe)

Latias was laying in the Sacred garden, her eyes glistening with unshed tears as she mourned the loss of her beloved brother, Latios. His selfless sacrifice to protect the city of Altomare weighed heavily on her heart. She missed his playful banter, the warmth of his presence, and the bond they shared as siblings. As she lay there, her sleek, aerodynamic body was still and silent, her glass-like feathers refracting the sunlight in a way that made her appear almost ethereal.

The garden was peaceful this morning, the gentle breeze carrying the sweet scent of flowers. The sound of birds chirping and insects buzzing created a soothing melody that seemed to echo her sorrow.

Suddenly an Iron Valliant appeared before Latias in the Sacred Garden. The mechanical Pokémon's imposing figure cast a shadow over the peaceful landscape. Latias' eyes widened with a mix of surprise and apprehension as she gazed up at the towering creature.

Iron Valliant's magenta blades glinted in the sunlight, and its green, cone-shaped structures swayed slightly as if stirred by an unseen breeze. The Pokémon extended a gauntleted hand towards Latias, its expression unreadable.

"A choice," Iron Valliant's voice resonated, a blend of mechanical tones and echoes. " I can bring back your brother, Latios, but at a cost. The two of you must become a Future Paradox Pokémon like me." At first Latias was hesitant, but the deep longing for her brother outweighed any reservations she had. She nodded slowly, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

As the blades of Iron Valiant's touch Latias' snout, a surge of energy courses through her body. Her sleek, aerodynamic form begins to shift and change, her glass-like feathers shimmering and reforming. The red and white markings on her body start to meld and flow, like liquid metal taking a new shape.

Latias feels the familiar weight of her body begin to change, her form compressing and condensing. Her neck stretches longer, becoming more slender and elegant. Her body takes on a more streamlined, futuristic shape, resembling a high-speed aircraft ready for takeoff.

Latias felt a rush of exhilaration as the transformation completed, her body now the sleek, metallic form of an Iron Eon. The cool air of the Sacred Garden caressed her polished red and black surface, and she flexed her new wings, marveling at their powerful, aerodynamic design. The blades of energy that had been Iron Valiant's arms were now part of her own being, embedded in her back as a testament to her new power.

She turned to face Iron Valiant, her glowing blue eyes meeting the mechanical Pokémon's gaze. A mix of gratitude and trepidation swirled within her. "Thank you for this gift, but tell me, what must I do now? How does one wield such power?"

Iron Eon's mind was flooded with a surge of new knowledge as soon as she transformed into her new form. The information came in rapid-fire bursts, each piece clicking into place like a complex puzzle. She could feel the power coursing through her, the energy of the air itself becoming a part of her being.

She knew that her body was now a marvel of aerodynamic design, every curve and contour honed for speed and agility. Her wings were powerful, capable of reaching speeds that would make even the fastest jet seem sluggish in comparison. The blades embedded in her back were not just for show; they were weapons of immense power, capable of slicing through the very fabric of reality.

Iron Eon then looked at Iron Valiant and asked " How do we bring my brother back?"

Iron Valiant's mechanical voice echoed through the Sacred Garden, its tone carrying a mix of authority and solemnity. "To bring Latios back, you must embrace your new form and tap into the power of the future. You must become one with the energy that flows through the air itself."

Iron Eon nodded, her glowing blue eyes reflecting a determination that matched her new form. She took a step forward, feeling the weight of her transformed body shift beneath her. The energy within her swirled, growing more intense with each passing moment.

Suddenly, a brilliant light erupted from the center of the garden, enveloping both Iron Eon and Iron Valiant.

when the light died down in front of them laid a Latios while the Soul dew was incased in a thick crystal.

Iron Eon's eyes widened as she beheld the sight before them. There, amidst the dissipating glow, lay Latios in all his glass-like feathered glory. His body was still and peaceful, a stark contrast to the chaos that had unfolded moments ago. The Soul Dew, now encased in a shimmering crystal, rested beside him, its power contained yet palpable.

Iron Eon felt a wave of relief and joy wash over her. Her brother was alive, thanks to the sacrifice she had made. But as she looked at Latios, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness.

Iron Eon's eyes widened in surprise as she watched Latios begin to transform. His sleek, dragon-like body started to shift and morph, the scales receding to reveal a futuristic, jet-like form. The purple flame on Latios's tail flickered and grew, engulfing his body in a cocoon of energy.

Iron Eon gazed in awe as the form of Latios shimmered and transformed, the glass-like feathers melding and reforming into a sleek, metallic body. The purple flame that had been Latios's defining feature now raged at the core of the new Pokémon's being, casting an ethereal glow over the entire form.

The transformation was complete. Where Latios once lay, now rested Iron Turbine, his body a perfect fusion of speed and power. Iron Eon felt a surge of emotions - pride, loss, gratitude, and a newfound sense of purpose. Her brother was alive, but at a cost. the two had become a Future Paradox Pokémon, just as Iron Valiant had foretold.

Iron Valiant meanwhile had put the Crystal incased Soul dew back in the fountain, as she smiled seeing Iron Eon rubbing her head against her brother. The mechanical Pokémon's eyes gleamed with a sense of satisfaction, the mission accomplished. Iron Valiant watched as the two siblings reunited, their new forms reflecting the unbreakable bond they shared.

Iron Turbine slowly woke up, his eyes blinking open as he took in his surroundings. The Sacred Garden looked different from the last time he had seen it, a slight shimmer in the air hinting at the recent transformations that had taken place. He sat up, feeling the strange new form of his body. Where once he had been a glass-like dragon, now he was something else entirely - a blue and silver jet, sleek and powerful.

Iron Turbine looked at Iron Eon, his piercing yellow eyes taking in the sight of her transformed body. Despite the changes, he recognized the familiar gaze of his sister. A smile spread across his metallic features, the joy evident in his voice as he spoke.

"Hello, Iron Eon. You look... different." He chuckled softly, shaking his head in wonder at the turn of events that had brought them to this point. "But I must say, it suits you. The power of the future flows through your veins now."

Iron Eon's body shimmered slightly, the sleek lines of her form rippling as if caught in an unseen breeze. She tilted her head, regarding her brother with a mix of amusement and curiosity. " I just needed you back, even if it meant we had to become Future Paradox Pokémon," she said softly, her voice carrying a hint of melancholy.

Iron Turbine nodded, understanding the weight of her words. He stood up, stretching out his metallic wings, testing the limits of his new form. "I know what you gave up for me, Eon. Thank you." His voice was filled with gratitude and a hint of sadness.

Iron Valiant watched the siblings reunite, a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment filling her mechanical frame. The mission was complete, but the journey was far from over. She knew that the path ahead would be filled with challenges and mysteries yet to be unraveled.

"how about we give this gift to a friend of us Eon" Turbine said hinting at Ash who had helped them years ago. Iron Eon's eyes lit up at the suggestion, her metallic features softening with affection. She nodded, a smile playing on her lips. "That's a wonderful idea, Turbine. Ash has been a true friend to us, always ready to help and support us in our adventures. He deserves this gift more than anyone else."

Iron Eon looked at Iron Turbine with a thoughtful expression. "You know, he has been like a brother to me too," she said softly, her eyes reflecting a mix of emotions. "It would be nice to share this gift with him, to let him experience the power and knowledge that we now possess."

Iron Valiant nodded in agreement. "A wise choice," she said, her mechanical voice carrying a hint of warmth. "Ash has always been a true friend to you, Eon. He deserves to be a part of this journey, even if only in a small way."

Valiant smiled as she teleported the three to the naked sleeping Ash. The room was dark, the only light coming from the moon shining through the window. Ash was sprawled out on the bed, his skin glistening with a light sheen of sweat from sleeping. His chest rose and fell with each breath, one arm draped over the side of the bed.

(Back to the beginning of the story)

Iron Eon and Iron Turbine gazed down at their sleeping friend, Ash. They could sense his kind and loyal nature, the strength that lay dormant within him. As they laid Wings hands on his body, they began to channel their power into him, the energy flowing through their fingertips and into his sleeping form.

At first, Ash remained still, his breaths deep and even. But as the power of the Iron duo increased, so did the changes in Ash's body. His skin began to shimmer and shift, the flesh transforming into a more durable, metallic form. His limbs elongated, the muscles bulging and rippling beneath his skin.

The duo watched in awe as Ash took on the form of an Iron Turbine, his body shimmering and shifting before their eyes. The transformation was complete, and where once lay their friend Ash, now stood a towering metallic beast, its wings spread wide and its eyes glowing with an inner light.

Iron Eon and Iron Turbine could not help but marvel at the sight before them. The power that coursed through Ash's new form was palpable, a testament to the bond they shared and the gift they had bestowed upon him. They looked at each other, their eyes reflecting a mix of pride and joy.

As the transformation of Ash's body was completed, his mind underwent a parallel shift, expanding with newfound knowledge and intelligence. Inside his metallic form, Ash found himself immersed in a torrential rush of information, as if every book he had ever read, every lesson he had ever learned, and every experience he had ever had were all being processed and synthesized at an unimaginable speed.

The data flooded his consciousness, covering a vast array of subjects - from the intricacies of quantum physics and the complex workings of the human body to the histories and cultures of civilizations that had long since faded into myth. Ash could feel his understanding of the world deepen and broaden, his thoughts becoming more nuanced and articulate.

But one thing took center stadge and those were his new form, his younger brother and younger sister, as he opened his yellow eyes with a smile, levitating up to his new younger siblings. Ash's metallic body shimmered and shifted, his skin gleaming under the moonlight streaming through the window.

Ash floated in the air, his new metallic body gleaming under the moonlight. His eyes, once human, now shone with an ethereal yellow glow. He looked down at his sister, Latias, and his brother, Latios, marveling at their transformed forms. The Iron Eon and the Iron Turbine, they were now part of the family.

"Brother, sister," Ash, now known as Iron Valiant, said, his voice resonating with a metallic echo. "This is our new beginning. Our old lives are but a memory now. We are the future, the paradox incarnate."

The two nodded as Iron Valiant opened a portal to the future. The air shimmered and distorted, a swirling vortex of light and color that pulsed with temporal energy. As they stepped through, the landscape around them shifted and warped, the familiar surroundings of the room melting away into a vision of a futuristic cityscape.
