firebird suite.

Paring: Reader x Ateez's Wooyoung AU: Mother Nature Genre: Fantasy, Angst, Fluff ♫: Firebird Suite (Disney's Fantasia 2000) Preview: "I think the forest is really complete now." You say, your eyes automatically find the mountain's peak that towers in the distance. Following your gaze, he sighs out your name. "Please don't start this again." Words: 4.1k

Wooyoung was Wooyoung, but you were everything.

Wooyoung was a deer, but you were the forest itself.

These are the thoughts that plagued the boy whenever he was around you. Your beauty, your glowing aura, your smile. It was enough to make Wooyoung, and everyone else who lived in the forest in awe of you. And yet, despite everything, you loved Wooyoung just as much as he did you. He finds himself grateful for that everyday.

Legends often refer to you as Mother Nature. Caring for and creating all living things in nature; this is what you did.

Growing flowers out of ashes, sending butterflies onto fields of grass, blossoming trees in the Spring.

But where you really resided, your true home, was the forest of Illusion. A special, magical forest away from reality. As Mother Nature this was your home.

The forest was large and home to many creatures, all magical. It was a place of your creation that was never disturbed by humans, a place for your to practice with your powers.

Wooyoung loved to watch you do your work.

Wooyoung, like most living in the forest, was a shapeshifter. Being able to shift between human and animal. His specific animal was a deer.

It was a warm morning and you were focusing on creating a new stream to nurture the flowers you recently grew. You took your time walking along the mossy rocks to define and pick a definite path. Humming along with the birds, the green of your dress dragging behind you.

Not long since you started, your felt a pair of eyes on you, following your moves. Bending to move a rock, you call out, "Good morning, Wooyoung." You turn quickly to smile at the large deer peeking through the trees before returning to your work. The brushes move behind you before footsteps approach, the deer, now in his human form, coming to join you.

"I thought I was quiet that time," He murmurs, taking a seat on the grass nearby. You laugh softly, continuing your work, "I can feel your eyes. Must be the whole supernatural powers." You turn to give him a teasing gaze as he rolls his eyes. "You left before I woke up." He pouts but you only shrug, "I couldn't sleep."

Wooyoung's eyes move over you as you work. Long hair flowing into your face that you refuse to tie back, the greenness of your skin softer than the grass below you, the butterflies that roam about often choosing to land on you.

"They look nice." Wooyoung finally speaks causing you to stand from your crouched position with a huff. Placing your hands on your hips you smile, "Thank you. I thought the yellow color was nice, we don't have yellow in this part of the forest." He nods even though you moved your eyes to rake over the new blooms.

You spend the rest of the morning together, working on this section of the forest. Recruiting Wooyoung to help if a rock is too heavy for you. The two of you chatted mindlessly and you bit your tongue whenever the subject you wanted to talk about came up; knowing how Wooyoung disapproved.

But as your work was done and you both sat side by side admiring it, you couldn't help the slip of your tongue.

"I think the forest is really complete now." You say, your eyes automatically find the mountain's peak that towers in the distance. Following your gaze, he sighs out your name. "Please don't start this again."

Frowning, you purse your lips, looking at the newly grown flowers in front of you. "You don't understand," You murmur, "I know I can do so much more, but I'm stuck here in this forest."

"If you were meant to only stay here, it must be for a reason." Wooyoung bites back. He doesn't mean to sound so harsh but he loves you. You were everything to him and he needed to protect you.

He wasn't sure from what, but if it was safe for you outside of this forest then you wouldn't have to be stuck here. He was sure of it.

"But I've done everything I could!" You can't help but shout. "I filled this forest to the brim with everything I can imagine and there is nothing left. Every day I wake up and move rocks around, replace flowers with a different color, can't you see I have more potential than that!" You throw your hands in the air causing the butterflies in your hair to flutter away.

"I know what you can do," Wooyoung says softly, "Look around us, we are surrounded by your magic."

Unimpressed, you don't look. "I see it every day. It doesn't change." What you do look at is the barren mountain in the distance that calls for you every day. "It's empty, I could really do something new up there. It's a blank slate for me."

"Illusion is your home. Everyone needs you here."

I need you here, Wooyoung wants to add but figures it may sound selfish.

You hold your tongue, not wanting to argue over it anymore. You've been doing it nearly every day lately. The boy reaches over to take your hand in his, interlacing your fingers and giving your hand a squeeze.

"I love you," He speaks out, nervous of your response. But the spat doesn't change your feelings as you answer right away, "I love you."

You were feeling quite lonely one afternoon without Wooyoung's company. However, his friend Seonghwa, a rabbit shifter was expecting his first child and Wooyoung promised to help him surprise his wife with a hand-crafted rocker.

Walking slowly along the outskirts of the forest, you couldn't help but find yourself at the edge of where you could best see the barren mountain.

You stop, taking in the large expanse of rock and dry grass. So much potential, you think.

Sitting, you take a moment to imagine what you would create with the space if given the chance.

Biting your lip, you can't help but think of all the possibilities. The green grass, wildflowers, a pond at the base, perhaps a river connecting to the large one in the forest. Illusion could expand there perhaps, it was empty after all, wasn't it?

Time passes and you only get more and more giddy with the inspiration that comes with thinking of all you could create.

Standing, you pause to look around. You were alone. Wooyoung was busy, and he would never have to know. You just wanting to quickly test it out.

With your heart pounding you take your first step out of Illusion. Watching as the dead grass automatically turns a healthy green. You smile, reaching your hands down to spread the growth as far as you could reach.

You run with laughter, your heart feeling full as you run around the base in front of you, creating beautiful grass full of life. Before you know it, you're running up the beginning of the mountain, the path of green following you.

But once you are halfway up, your smile falters once you notice the green no longer follows you.

Pausing you take a step back, the grass sprouting once more. Looking down, you take a step forward only to see nothing changing. Your powers must not work past here.

With a huff you look around in confusion, you've never had this happen before. Curious as to why, you continue your journey. Keeping your eyes on your footsteps seeing nothing but dead grass and eventually only black stone.

Glancing around you see how far you come, nearing the tip of the mountain. With a gulp, you take a couple more steps forward, eyebrows furrowing in confusion as you notice the mountain seems to be hollow.

Carefully you let yourself peak over into the opening, seeing nothing but darkness. Strange you think but panic as you notice two red eyes open from below. They move closer to you at an astonishing pace and you stumble back from the edge, tripping over your own feet and landing on your bottom.

You watched in terror as some kind of giant bird shot from the mountain; black as night but with feathers dipped in flowing lava.

It swoops down towards you and you close your eyes tightly in fear. But when nothing happens you peak open to see a man crouching in front of you, eyes as red as the bird's.

He smirks at your fear.

His eyes leave you for a second to glance around. "Doing some remodeling?" He asks in a smooth voice that makes your stomach turn. "I'm sorry, I didn't-" You start to quickly apologize but you freeze as his red eyes bore into yours.

The red orbs watch you slowly, leaving you frozen in place. He takes in the greenish of your skin and hair before speaking, "Mother Nature." He smirks again with a dark chuckle.

Everything in you runs cold the more you stay here with this man. You don't know who or what he is, but you don't feel safe.

"I need to get home." You rush out, trying to stand while keeping your distance from him, "I'm sorry for trespassing, I didn't know." You let out while finding your footing.

The man stands with you, shaking his black hair out of his eyes. His gazes roams over the expanse of you now that you've straightened out and his lips twitch with a huffed laugh. The redness of his eyes glow and he moves to glance behind you at the green path of growth you left up half the mountain.

"Why don't you come back tomorrow, you can finish the other side." He says with a tilt of his head.

You can't help but frown, "I-no, I'm sorry I shouldn't have changed anything." You try to reject but he merely looks blankly at you. "It's fine. Come back tomorrow to finish what you started." He says, no hint of amusement in his voice.

Your head stutters a nod, eyes blinking furiously. He tilts his head, eyes wandering over your face, "My name is Yeonjun." he states.

Nodding, you stay silent but the sight glare from his eyes has you stuttering out your name as well.

"Pretty." He states. Nodding his head behind you, he speaks again, "Get going well. I'll see you tomorrow, right?"

You nod your head once before turning quickly. However, you freeze when Yeonjun says your name coldly. You glance back at him again to see a dark look on his face. "Right?" He asks again more firmly.

"Right." You agree timidly and turn once more making your way quickly down the mountain and back into the safety of the forest.

Your heart rate doesn't slow until you're deep in the forest where you finally feel safe again. You take a seat at the base of a river, dipping your feet into the cool water.

How could you be so foolish? You should've listened to Wooyoung. You were meant to stay in Illusion for a reason. Your stomach churns the more you recall your encounter with Yeonjun. You will never go back to that mountain, but you just hope Yeonjun won't act on it.

"There you are." A voice speaks causing you to jump, looking with relief to see it was Wooyoung who approached you. "Did I scare you?" He teases as he takes a seat beside you.

"I couldn't hear you over the waterfall." Or my thoughts. You think as you glance at him lovingly. "What happened to your supernatural powers?" He pushes his shoulder into yours but frowns when you merely give him a small smile.

"You okay?" He asks and you nod, forcing a smile to lift on your lips. "Is it about the mountain again, look I-" he starts but you shake your head furiously, grabbing his arm to hug, "No, it's not. I don't want to talk about that right now."

You couldn't bring yourself to tell Wooyoung about what happened. He warned you about the dangers and he was right. You love him and don't want to disappoint him with your rebelling.

"How was Seonghwa?" You ask as you lean on his shoulder. "Great, we finished the chair, he's gonna paint it tomorrow." He states and you zone out as he drags on about how he and Hongjoong argued over what type of wood they should've used.

You pull away softly to look at him, "I love you." You state causing a redness to cast over his cheeks making you smile. "I love you." He responds.

Leaning forward you kiss him gently, letting your lips linger against his. He pushes slightly into you, lips moving softly as he kisses you back.

Staying there next to the waterfall, kissing softly, you let yourself feel safe in his embrace. Laughing breathlessly as you both pull away and see the butterflies that have made their way from your hair to his.

You're on high alert the next day, every gust of wind or snap of a twig has your heart rate accelerating. You've done your best to stay away from everyone as well, figuring if Yeonjun does come, it's best to face him alone.

That's why you make yourself stay in the east side of the forest when you sensed something strange. There was a quiet, almost eeriness from the area.

You make your way to the edge of the forest as quietly as possible, but you see nothing. The giant mountain comes into view and it makes your mouth dry. There is no sign of him, but you know this feeling isn't for nothing.

A rustle of a bush behind you as you jumping, heart pounding when you turn to face the direction. However a calmness washes over you when you make eye contact with a familiar deer. Though the calmness soon leaves you, "Wooyoung please leave me alone right now." You say quietly, still afraid of who might be around.

You advert your gaze back to the mountain, sensing him shift behind you. "I won't say anything about the mountain." He says behind you but when you don't reply he figures it must be something else. "What's wrong?" He tries again, taking in your worried expression.

You don't know how to answer him. How could you when he's been warning you about this the whole time. However, you don't have time to think of a response as you notice a dark figure quickly approaching the forest.

A sense of panic washes over you and you turn to grab Wooyoung's arms, "You need to leave, please, get everyone away!" You say hushed but the urgency is apparent in everything you do.

He shifts his confused expression from the figure to your eyes, "What? What is that?" You look back and he's approaching fast, "I'm sorry Wooyoung, I should've listened to you. Please, please Wooyoung go!" You beg him with watery eyes.

Wooyoung watches with dread in his stomach, never has he seen you so afraid. The flowers sprouting from your hair falling to the floor under you.

He wants to yell out he won't leave you, he doesn't know what's wrong but he won't leave your side. But he forgets the power you hold over him. With the swipe of your hand over his cheek you force him to shift to his deer form, leaving him frustrated.

Watching on high alert as you step slightly outside the bounds of the forest to meet the mysterious figure. He stays behind a tree as to keep an eye on you without you noticing.

Yeonjun approaches you with a dark look. He says your name just as darkly.

"You lied to me," He says blankly, "I waited nearly all day for you to come back like you said."

You swallow trying to hide your fear, "I'm sorry, but like I said, I didn't know you lived up there. I wouldn't have messed with it otherwise."

He sends a glare your way, red eyes glowing like the lava he lived in. His anger causes a heat to radiate off him and he moves his gaze from you to the forest behind you. "I'll give you another chance, come back to the mountain with me." He voice is raspy.

Shaking your head immediately, "This is my home, I won't leave it."

He scoffs, "But you were so ready to take over mine."

Your heart drops because he's right. "I didn't-" You start but he stops you. "Save it." He sighs and takes a step backwards, looking around. "If you want to remodel so bad, I'll give you something to remodel."

"No," you say, dread crawling up your chest like a spider. But Yeonjun doesn't listen. You can only watch as he shifts to his bird form, taking off high into the sky and you feel horror as you see him dive into the mountain.

You snap back to Wooyoung, as if you knew he never left. "We need to move! Hurry, get everyone away from here!" You're so hysterical, Wooyoung doesn't move but a rumbling of the ground startles him.

You look at him sadly, tears filling your eyes, "It's not a mountain, it's a volcano."

The rumbling grows stronger and though his heart it heavy, he turns to run, knowing he needs to warn as many people as possible.

You let out a sob as you look up to see the eruption.

The bird bursts out of the volcano, wings of fire encasing the whole sky before he swoops, bringing his flowing lava with him down the mountain. You still for a second in horror, trying to will yourself to think of anything you could do to stop or protect your forest.

But it's no use. He gets to you quickly, as you try to run to safety but the lava encases everything it touches to fire. His glowing eyes follow you as you try to make your way up trees, rocks or anyplace you could find.

You scamper quickly up the tallest tree you could find, thinking you have a moment to breathe. Turning slowly, you make eye contact with the glowing red eyes of the bird because he soars even higher than you. Opening his wings with a great roar before engulfing you in his heat completely.

Wooyoung stares out in horror and shock as he stands over the cliff that looks over what was once Illusion.

What was once a luscious green forest, is now a giant field of grey ash, smoke still filling the air. His heart is heavy as he realizes everything is destroyed but at least he and the others were able to get everyone to safety in time.

Everyone except for you.

As a magical being, there was no way you could die, right? That's what he tells himself as he goes around checking on everyone. But there's a nagging in the back of his mind, why haven't you come yet.

What happened to you and the man who caused this all.

The next morning is when his panic starts to set in with no sign of you. Even all the citizens asking him where you were, if you were okay. He merely gave them a comforting smile and said you wouldn't be long.

Just before dawn breaks, he sends Yeosang to fly over the volcano to see if there was any sign on Yeonjun.

And as the sun reaches over the mountain, he shifts into his deer form and makes his way into the burnt landscape.

He feels sick with worry as he steps slowly and carefully into the ruins; clouds of smoke lifting into the air at every step. There is nothing but grey, not a single color to be found.

Wooyoung refrains from shifting or calling out to you, hesitant at what he might find. Instead he follows his heart, it leads him straight to a tree- or the remainings of one.

It was your favorite, the biggest in your forest and you always told him it was your first creation.

He barely recognizes the spot, void of anything, but he reaches his snout down into the pile of dust nonetheless.

A huff of relief leaves him and you emerge from the pile, as if your sprouting from the ground, clinging to his antlers and letting him lift you up. It scares Wooyoung how small you are, as if you nearly disappeared all together. Not an inch of green or life, merely dust.

He takes a couple steps to a rock nearby, placing you gently on it before finally shifting. Wooyoung calls your name softly, leaning on his knees to get a closer look at you.

You stay small and shrunken, refusing to meet his gaze. He whispers your name again, refraining from touching you, "Please talk to me."

He watches a tear drop from your eyes, "I'm sorry." "Stop." He replies firmly, but you continue. "This is all my fault, I destroyed everything. Illusion is gone."

Wooyoung swallows as your tears fall continuously, "It wasn't you, it was that monster." He reaches carefully to grab your hand in his, the greyness of it worrying him. "You warned me to not leave but I didn't listen. He came looking for me, that's why he did this." "I'm sorry Wooyoung, I'm sorry I didn't listen to you."

His heart hurts to see you so distressed but how can he argue. You both knew he warned you, but he didn't want you to dwell on that anymore.

"Everyone has been asking about you." He says instead and you can't help but peek at him. "They're okay?" You ask softly. He nods giving your hand a squeeze. "Everyone is okay, we got them to safety on the cliff. But they've been worried about you."

You can't help but feel slightly relieved that no one was hurt due to your dire mistake. Gulping deeply you look up finally, glancing around at the mess, "What have I done?"

Wooyoung says your name, "You can grow from this."

"How?" You say with a frown, only seeing death where there was once a forest full of life.

He reaches up to gently cup your face, making you look at him rather than the sad surroundings. "Don't you remember that you are life?" "You created this whole forest, and you can do so again."

You let him hold your cheek but drop your gaze as he speaks, "You have the power to create Illusion, you are Illusion. You can make our home, you can turn this destruction into something beautiful and I know you can because you've done it before."

"But how can I be trusted after what I've done. I put everyone in danger just because I was curious and bored." You argue.

Wooyoung drops his hand, "You can't dwell on your mistake anymore. You are the only one who can fix this, think of everyone else. They need a place to live. It's only you who can give it to them."

Thinking for a moment, you come to realize this could be your chance to make up for what you've done. You sniffle, pursing your lips as you look around. You had to do something for them.

"But what about Yeonjun?" You ask, remembering the glowing eyes and the heat of the burning fire. "Yeosang flew over the volcano this morning. There is nothing, it's dormant. I think he used all his power to go after you." Wooyoung tells you softly.

There's a moment of silence before you hesitantly stand. Wooyoung stands himself, moving out of your way.

"You wanted more space to work on, right?" Wooyoung jokes. You send him an unimpressed look and he smiles sheepishly, "What? Too soon?"

Shakily, you take a single step forward, both of you watching the ground nervously. But to your relief you watch as the burnt ground slowly turns green, new grass sprouting from the ash beneath it.

Another step shows your powers and you turn to smile happily at Wooyoung. He smiles back at you, moving forwards to cup your cheek, placing a small kiss to your lips. When he pulls away he smiles brighter, seeing the green of your skin start to return.

He kisses you gently again before moving back, "Go on." He nods towards the forest.

You nod back slightly, taking a deep breath to steady yourself before moving forward.

Starting off slowly you, you walk briskly, looking down to see the lively green bursting from the destruction. You smile gaining speed as you start to run, spreading your arms and letting the new growth flow from within you.

Wooyoung was right, you are Illusion.

And you will build this place up bigger and better than before because you owe it to everyone who lives here. You owe it to yourself as you realize how many depend on you and your power. How the forest doesn't hinder your potential but displays it.

There is so much beauty than can come after so much hurt and you were about to show everyone just that.

🌼 All feedback is appreciated and welcomed 🌼

Submas fate brothers AU

A very dumb idea, probably going to say sorry for my future-self. If it’s cringe. However, from the events of Pokémon legends Arceus, there’s many questions on why the god of Pokémon threw two people (Rei or Akari and Ingo) into the Hisui region. Wouldn’t that just make two mortals stuck in a paradox, their fate sealed to exist in the past, not their present lives?

Dialga is not having it, he and his brother Palkia were corrupted and later captured in the events of the Sinnoh region. Though it’s not much on paper, does this have to apply to every multiverse and timeline?

They’ve made a visit to their father about it, and in an unexpected turn in the conversation, they felt sympathy for the two mortals “trapped” in this fate. How this affects the lives they left behind and forgotten. Arceus was reluctant to comply without a word. Dialga left, leaving Palkia with Arceus. Palkia never sees what Dialga sees in the time stream, not that he doesn’t believe anything in what he said. Moreover, he can’t relate to the frustration of being bound by fate. Unexpectedly, Arceus responded, “For a change, we’ll intervene; you must not allow your brother to know. This will make a new tree, an alternative universe. We only have one chance to pull this through. I will give my blessing to the first mortal to be more fit to adapt to the harsh environment of the Hisui region, and you’ll guide the lone hero by disguising as a mortal traveler. Once your duty is done, you shall return him home.”

While for Dialga, he made an unexpected visit to the distortion realm. Of course, from the neglect, banishment of his sibling to a redemption to protect the universe rather than its destruction, this is overall remarkable. However, the reason Dialga visited is for something entirely different: Giratina never traveled outside his prison for millennia, and he offered to “help” with that. Dialga assumes his father / creator didn’t agree to change fate for the better since he chose to left early, nor does he trust Arceus for his authority over everything. Being given the job as the god of time is different from the viewpoints of what Arceus observed. He explained that with his ability, he can open a portal for the “next cycle” when the first chosen one is dropped. Dialga is aware he can’t bring Giratina as a whole; otherwise, it will gather too much attention, so he has a better plan. How about Giratina giving a mortal his blessing, a piece of himself while he stay mostly on duty in the distortion realm? This would in turn avoid breaking Giratina’s banishment as he’s technically not present. With that said, Ingo was originally the first mortal transported through time, and what better match to be his younger twin brother, Emmet, to be brought in? He’ll be given the goal of purifying these Pokémon, after all the corruption originated from Giratina’s energy from his past self, and to convince the village enough to not only co-exist with Pokémon but respect the world as it is and equally important as it’s never worth destroying it or play god.

For Ingo, he’ll follow along with the missions in the original game to capture and tame Pokémon, but with mystical powers protecting him and a mysterious companion. Unaware Emmet is here too, but spawn in a different location, for he will fix the Noble Pokémon and Alphas before his unsuspecting brother does. Helping him as he should and to prevent another passenger from being on this track, being sent off to their last stop. He could bring his brother a ride back home after a few weeks, not years! Better to not be veeeerrrry late on schedule. All abroad!

How chaos ensues for the twins possessing the blessings of gods unknowingly…

Bonus: Emmet finds himself enjoying these berries more than he anticipated from the lack of resources he has, or perhaps a piece of Giratina is partially influencing this euphoria, eating for the first time, though he, as a god, admitted he doesn’t need to. But the pleasure is satisfying and beneficial for both. Giratina started to see more of the light of the wonders of creation, instead of just fixing his past mistakes.

-Emmet and Ingo are the same age as in the events of Pokémon Black and White 2.

-This Emmet isn’t angst fanon; he’s more cannon, but he is saddened to hear the fate of his brother, though he is more surprised to be summoned by Sinnoh legendaries about the situation. He is more productive in executing the plan and is glad to help due to his logical thinking; he’s straight forward on the task. Though he can be a bit unnerving being a Pokémon battling enthusiast with Giratina powers.

-Emmet’s eyes can change to Giratina’s eyes, if he wants to, or if he is using Giratina’s powers to purify a Pokémon or protect himself. He doesn’t like the wings, as they would be cramped under his coat. Instead, he looks more like a hybrid of origin form Giratina. This form is for flight, by the way; he can return to looking human. Giratina is in his head, guiding him.

-Ingo is a similar case, though much more inexperienced in how to activate it. It mostly reacts by instinct to discomfort or danger. Whenever he touches a plate, much like Arceus equipping that item, it changes Arceus' typing. The visual change affects Ingo too, including his eye color and aura. He’ll look mostly human in his journey, as Arceus' blessing is just for Ingo to protect himself with. + prevent him from having amnesia from the fall.

-Why Palkia? Well, it would be better than a phone with the text message from God, “Capture all Pokémon." He would ironically work with the Pearl clan, though he was visibly confused by the misinterpretations these humans had of him and his brother as god god, or one is false and one is true. As much as he wants to say more accurately, the fact is that they are sons of the god of Pokémon, so he’ll have to play along. Somewhat filling in as the one stranger with “amnesia” due to his behavior of not knowing the basics of mortal life. Still, he’ll follow through with his creator’s plan.

-Emmet would have his Pokémon with him, while Ingo doesn’t and has to go to develop his team.
