i'Aisha kept her arms over Michael and sighed with relief. She thought she hated him, but when he ran off into the darkness. She realised how important her family meant to her. All her life she had tried not to get to attached to anything, after the death of her father, she even pushed her mother out of her life, locking herself in her bedroom with her Vulpix, well Ninetales now, but Vulpix at the time she was in Kanto, she was afraid to get attached to anything, because she thought that it would only end in tears. But now she knew that not everything had to end horribly. And that her father worked for Team Rocket, causing the eventually premature death. And that this would not happen to her mother or Michael, so she did not have to worry, to hug her cousin made her body feel warm, she smiled sweetly and tears rolled down her cheeks, she then screamed as her bag began to shake, "What the hell is in my bag?" She shouted, titling to the left so it would fall off her shoulder. As it hit the floor, peices of a cracked egg rolled onto the cold ground, followed by a transparent liquid. i'Aisha shuddered, had she just cracked the egg the man entrusted her with?
There was a moments silence, then out of her bag hopped a small, innocent brown bird. It turned to i'Aisha and chirped merrily, hopping towards her, falling over as it tried to balance in the outside world, i'Aisha picked the young bird up and Ninetales walked over to it, trying to get used to its scent, "You're beautiful..." i'Aisha said smiling, the Pidgey snuggled into her and i'Aisha wiped the tears from her cheeks, Seel, Pikachu and Squirtle watched amazed, "I'll call you Hedwig." She said calmly.
In what seemed to be a second of peace, thick black smoke began to form around them, i'Aisha panicked, rushing in her backpack for a blanket to cover Hedwig in, she then held her tightly in her arms.
Michael stepped forward, "Oh no, if the Volcano erupts. We are directly beneith it. And lost, what are we going to do?" Michael said frightened, but his fears were relieved as a Cyndaquil ran out of the smoke, it was using Smokescreen, attempting to escape from a Pokémon that they could not yet see, it leapt into Michael's arms, causing Pikachu and Squirtle to crawl up to his shoulders, "Woah? What's up?" Michael said to the trembling creature, who was whimpering.
Then out of the smoke stepped out a large Magmar, it looked blood thirsty, yet quite excited, it stared at Cyndaquil who snuggled into Michael's chest to avoid eye contact with the creauture, it then launched itself at Michael who dived out the way, Pikachu and Squirtle then fell to the ground, "Right!" i'Aisha screamed to the creature, "No more running away, there is nowhere to run anyway. This is a wild battle, there are no rules, so if we all fight him, we have more chance of surviving then running into a dead end. Come on, we have to work together on this."
Michael gulped, he didn't want to risk the safety of himself and his Pokémon, but he knew this was neccesery.
Magmar
Type: Fire
Level: 15
Moves: Smog - Leer - Ember - Smoke Screen.
Magmar laughed hysterically, before using Ember vicously in an attempt to burn Michael and the Pokémon he was protecting, Squirtle bravely jumped to his owners defence, Magma seemed to fill with rage, the burning and crackling flames on his body growing ever more intimidating, he watched, as if waiting for Michael to make the first move, "Right!" Michael said, pointing at Magmar, "Seel use Water Sport!"
Seel nodded and sprayed water at the burning Magmar to laughed at this, Water Sport was not a move that could hurt a Pokémon, however it was more of a tactical move, something that the excited Magmar did not know about, the water almost extinguished his flames, but Magmar grinned as the flames grew once more, the water evapourating, "Now, Squirtle! Bubble!" Michael ordered, Squirtle leapt into the air, before sending thousands of bubbles towards the unexpecting Magmar who attempted to dodge them but failed, a harsh hissing noise was heard as the bubbles hit his fiery skin.
Magmar began to fill the air with thick purple smog, Michael began to choke on the fumes, i'Aisha took part of the blanket from Pidgey and covered her mouth, pointing at the creature, before she could say anything it spat flames at Squirtle who screamed with pain, fire was not his weak point, but this creature was much stronger, "Ninetales, Confuse Ray! Seel, Headbutt!" i'Aisha ordered, Ninetales glanced into Magmar's eyes, he seemed hypnotised and stepped back, in time to get smacked into the sharp wall by Seel, it roared in pain and swung its fist, punching Seel, sending him flying into the opposite wall, Seel roared, unable to move, i'Aisha raised her Pokéball, "Seel, return! Ninetales, quick attack!"
As Ninetales raced towards the confused Magmar, the Smog wore off, Michael glanced at the creature as Ninetales slammed it back into the wall, "Squirtle, quick! Bubble! Then Pikachu, use Thunder Shock!" They nodded, Squirtle sent thousands of Bubbles at the weak Magmar, who yelped in pain, before the water could evapourate, Pikachu generated his electricity, shooting Thunder Shocks at the creature, due to the water, it hurt him even more, he roared in anger, the flames on his body now weak, the flame on his tail, barely visable, "Ninetales, Quick Attack! Squirtle, Bubble! Pikachu, Thunder Shock! And Cyndaquil, I know you don't know me, but it seems like you trust me, and if you trust me, you need to do this, use Leer, look him right in the eyes, he can't hurt you."
Cyndaquil reluctantly turned his head to the intimidating creature, who was now weak, it focused fully on Cyndaquil, and began to approach him grinning, when from his left, Ninetales raced into him, slamming him into a sharp wall, Squirle then use a devastating amount off Bubbles to extinguish what was left of his flames, and Pikachu finished, by Thunder Shocking the unexpecting creature, it stumbled forward, before falling to the floor, it looked lifeless, it was lifeless. i'Aisha grinned, she usually would have left cruel, but this creature was going to kill her Pokémon, she had to do what they did, she hugged Michael, and the Pokémon cheered merrily.
