Mewtwo's Perfect World

Twilight was standing forward, concentrating all of her magic into the field of energy that had engulfed Mewtwo. Twilight's friends were all positioned behind her. This type of magic that Twilight was creating was beginning to drain her of all her energy. Even with Twilight's greatest magic prison spell, it still wasn't enough to hold Mewtwo.

Mewtwo's eyes then turned blue. With a wave of his hand, the purple bubble of energy suddenly burst around him, leaving Twilight and her friends completely vulnerable. The six ponies stared at Mewtwo, realising the danger and possible consequence of their mistake. They waited for him to finally make a move against them. Mewtwo just stood and simply sighed with such exhaustion.

"I do not want to hurt you all. Leave this place... now."

Twilight held no fear, and began to speak in a much louder tone.

"Listen, I know that what we tried probably wasn't the right idea to go about things, but all we want is answers! We need to know who you are, what you are planning and what you're doing here!" Twilight exclaimed. "We need to know whether you're a threat or not to Equestria! Because if you are, then- well... we w- we will stop you..."

Mewtwo's eyes then faded back to normal. His relaxed his body from his attacking posture he had been in. He sighed once more and headed towards the cave. He turned his head back to the ponies just before heading into the dark.

"Follow me."

The five ponies all stared at each other in confusion, wondering if this was some kind of trap. But Twilight then began to follow Mewtwo into the dark. With Twilight's action, the five other ponies quickly hurried in after her and Mewtwo.

The cave was very dark, too dark for anypony to see anything. Mewtwo's hand suddenly began to glow a very light blue, causing the entire cave to light up very dimly. Mewtwo sat himself down on the cold rocky ground and closed his eyes. The six ponies nervously looked at each other, pondering whether they should do the same. Twilight was the first to sit herself down. With Twilight's seating, the rest of the ponies soon followed.

"You want answers? Very well. But I must warn you, my memory has been... damaged. It may be difficult to show you everything you're looking for. Are you ready?"

Twilight looked back at her friends. They all seemed very anxious and nervous as to what was about to happen. Twilight then turned back to Mewtwo. "We are ready,"

Mewtwo then closed his eyes and instructed the ponies to do the same.

Very well, then we shall begin,

Twilight opened her eyes to nothing. Everything was black. She looked around to see herself floating in oblivion. Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were nowhere to be seen. She was all alone. Floating into absolute nothingness. Then suddenly, out of the corner of Twilight's eye, a tiny figure could be seen from quite a distance away. Twilight wondered what it could be, and what it was doing here. Alone. In the dark.

"H- hello?" Twilight's voice echoed across the never-ending dark. Nothing. The figure then began to draw closer to Twilight. She looked closer and closer, finally capturing a glimpse of what this thing was.

It was Mewtwo, although it looked much younger than his usual self. He was asleep, or so she thought. His eyes were shut, and his arms were crossed together. Was all of this real? A sudden voice then filled into Twilight's mind.

"I have slept for so long. It seems like... forever. But I remember something. Someone..."

Mewtwo's body suddenly began to grow bigger, and older. Twilight simply floated in shock at what was transpiring with this creature. Had he been alone like this all this time?

"Life is... wonderful. But... why?"

Everything suddenly began to evaporate. Things began to become much clearer, and Twilight suddenly found herself standing in some kind of medical labratory. The only things that hadn't changed was Twilight and Mewtwo's position. Mewtwo was still asleep, looking exactly the same as Twilight had seen him before. Except this time, it was different. He was being held inside an orange tank, strapped together with all kinds of wires and machinery. This was not normal. Twilight tried to touch the glass that separated herself from Mewtwo. She felt nothing.

"Doctor, look at this!"

"What?"

"Its brain waves... they're surging!"

Twilight turned to see very strange creatures standing around looking at some sort of strange technological device. These creatures looked very similar to apes, except these creatures where somewhat... cleaner. They could also talk, which caused Twilight's curiosity of these creatures to soar. But then she shook her head, trying to focus on what was happening and turned her head back to Mewtwo. His left eye opened suddenly. Twilight screamed, but then shut her mouth quickly as if she would be caught. The strange creatures took no notice of her, as if she were not even there.

Mewtwo's eyes suddenly turned blue again, like they had done previously with Twilight and her friends. This could not be good. The glass began to crack, and with a small push of power, Mewtwo broke free from his tank The strange creatures all turned, shocked by what had just happened. Orange liquid began to drain out from where the orange tank was, dripping on Mewtwo and onto the ground. An alarm was heard throughout the turmoil. Twilight just stood there beside Mewtwo, wondering what was about to happen next.

"Radio Giovanni's helicopter! Tell him what's happened!"

"QUIET! Let us hear its psychic powers!"

This creature was very strange. He had a white coat, glasses, and his mane was enormous! He must of been a scientist of some kind.

"Psychic... powers?" Mewtwo suddenly began to speak. To Twilight, he sounded much more like the Mewtwo that she had encountered previously. The strangely haired creature continued.

"For years we struggled, to successfully clone a Pokemon to prove our theories. But you're the first specimen to survive!"

Twilight began to slip into thought. What was a 'Pokemon'? Is Mewtwo some sort of clone?!

The creature then pointed to a very old carved drawing on the wall. It... almost looked like Mewtwo, except it looked much smaller, and seemed less dangerous.

"...That is Mew, the rarest of all Pokemon. From its DNA we created you: Mewtwo!"

"Mewtwo? Am I only a copy? Living in Mew's shadow!?" Mewtwo's voice began to grow with anger.

"You are greater than Mew! Improved through the power of human ingenuity!"

Human?

"... We used to most advanced techiques to develop your awesome psychic powers!"

Psychic powers??

"So, I am simply the end result of your experiment. What becomes of me now that your 'experiment' is over?"

"Oh our experiment isn't over yet, it's just beginning! Now the serious testing begins!"

Twilight felt sorry for Mewtwo. He had just been brought into this world through tests and experiments. He had no purpose for living. He did not experience the beginning of life; having loving parents taking care of him and living happily and peacefully underneath the bright and beautiful sun. This could seriously damage a pony, let alone Mewtwo.

She looked back towards Mewtwo to see him just staring down at his hands, totally lost in thought. Twilight wondered what could be going through his mind at this time. He then raised his head, and his entire body began to turn blue. Twilight knew what was coming. She observed her surroundings quickly to see whether there was some place to hide. But there were none. It didn't matter however, as she was totally unaffected by what was about to transpire.

Other orange tanks around the lab began to shatter. Mewtwo's eyes suddenly turned blue. With a push of strength, Mewtwo forced the strange 'human' creatures to the ground with a burst of his 'psychic powers'. This power however caused the main electrical engine in the lab to explode. Twilight stood in absolute shock as Mewtwo was tearing this lab apart, piece by piece with his newly created powers. Mechanical hands from the machines tried to hold Mewtwo down, but it was hopeless. With a another push of strength, his power caused the hands to let go and eventually crumble. Twilight made a mental note to never again hold Mewtwo down against his will.

Mewtwo's blue eyes observed the carnage, causing everything functional in the lab to suddenly explode and turn to rubble. Flames began to spread throughout the lab. Many of the strange humans fled in absolute terror, except for the one with the very large mane. He was left alone, sitting against a hard wall. From out of the flames, Mewtwo appeared. The strange human then spoke.

"We dreamed of creating the world's strongest Pokemon..."

Mewtwo's entire body then began to charge itself with a blue ball of power.

"... and we succeeded."

The power then cast itself wide and made a deafening explosion, completely destroyed the lab and everything on the island. Twilight stood amongst the devastation, totally unaffected by the destruction. A large black cloud of smoke then began to rise into the sky. And there among the flames, Mewtwo stood. His head then turned to where Twilight was supposedly standing. This caused her to look very startled by Mewtwo's gaze. It was as if he could... see her directly.

"Behold my powers! I am the strongest Pokemon in the world! Stronger even than Mew..."

With this said, everything once again began to fade. The flames died, and the place where Twilight was standing disappeared. The ground then began to glow, and Twilight could feel herself being lifted into the air. She screamed as everything around her, including herself began to be consumed by this bright light.

Twilight opened her eyes. She was back in the cave, alongside her friends. It seemed that they had all just experienced what Twilight had been through. They all had a very shocked expression on their faces, now knowing the entire mystery that was Mewtwo. Twillight looked around and saw him, standing there in the exact position he was in when he destroyed that island: tall and proud.

"Now you know my story. Now you what I am, and the powers that I truly possess. What happened that day I will always remember. Since then however my eyes have been opened, as has my heart. I have been looking for a place where I can finally live in peace. I have found my purpose. This is why I am here on this mountain. I am a threat to your kind, and to your world..."

Twilight and her friends stood in absolute silence. Now they all realised the full extent that this 'Pokemon' had been through, and how hard it was to simply find a place to call his home. Twilight finally knew the source of Mewtwo's problem. He was all alone, in this world and his.

"So... um, now that we know what you are, and how you came into being, there's still one thing that I am not sure of..."

Mewtwo looked up at Twilight, wondering what else there was for him to say.

"And that is?"

"How did you get here? To Equestria from your world?"

Mewtwo paused. He had actually never thought of this since he arrived. How was he here at all? What could of happened in his world that caused himself to being pushed into this one? Mewtwo traced his mind back to his last vivid memory of his world. His mind then fractured, causing severe pain to Mewtwo's brain. He groaned and focused his mind back to the present time.

"I... do not know. I... cannot remember..."

Twilight looked back to her friends. She knew that this 'Pokemon' has obviously had a change of heart over the years, ever since that day that Twilight and her friends had just seen. Now that she knew what he was and where he came from, she wanted to finally help him, and give him closure. She wanted to help the most powerful Pokemon in the world retrace his memory as to what had happened in his world that could have caused him to being transported into their world.

Twilight thought to herself about all the ways in which she could help. She retraced all the spells she could conjure and create, as well as all the spells she had successfully been able to accomplish. A sudden idea came into Twilight's mind, causing her to grow a very large grin that actually scared Mewtwo.

"Follow me Mewtwo, I have an idea!"
