Chapter 36: Kalius' Discussion Towards Lunar Rosa and Konan.

Andrew layed there, obviously seething at Lunar Rosa for insulting his species. Kalius not faring much better, but ignoring it... after all, he is not going to listen to someone a few thousand yeard younger then him ridicule what once was a great tribe.

"... You aren't the chosen of wind." Said Kalius finally. Andrew blinked before saying.

"What?" Asked Andrew confused. "That's impossible. Of course I am. Why else would I have those dreams?" Kalius smirked.

"Because they were mine. I was the original weilder, but since you are the dominant personality, the duty automatically goes to you." Said Kalius as he walked forward. "Why else are Rosa, Gado and I here? From radically different time periods? Well, that's why. I have a feeling that Lunar Rosa will be freed first."

"Huh? Why do you get that feeling?" Asked Andrew, annoyed at that statement. Kalius grinned, knowing that he knew a lot about these situations.

"Because she is the one called on most. We alter egos have the same effect Atherion does. But to a much lesser degree. If Lunar Rosa keeps being called on, Konan will die, and Rosa will have another shot at life. Add to that Konan's mental strength is pretty weak, which allows Rosa to get out so frequently. But... I'm not even sure if she cares about that... I mean, she should know." Said Kalius in one breath, but since he was just a personality trait, that wouldn't be difficult.

"There's no way that's the case." Said Andrew as he started to get a weird feeling in his 'gut'. "Wait, so... there is another way out, am I right?" Kalius nodded.

"Yes, by destroying the consciousness of the dominant personality." Said Kalius as he jumped towards Andrew. "DIE!" Kalius swung his foot down, knocking Andrew out. "Heh, now to have a talk with Konan." Kalius disappeared, signalling that he was in control.

(Ship)

Kalius didn't even transform Andrew's body before blasting Konan. "HahahahahAHAH!" Laughed Kalius as he got up off of the deck. "I wouldn't come out if I were you, Lunar Rosa. You seem to care about your shell. If even you come out a few more times, you will destroy Konan's mind and soul." Kalius walked up to Konan and said. "Heh, you think us Falcons are weak, eh? Well, if you were born a thousand years before, then it would be a different story. In fact, there are many things that we kept secret, to our... demise."

'Kalius, stop this madness!" Yelled Andrew, but Kalius was too busy ranting about the old glory days.

"Heheheheheh... Neko's aren't the ultimate species. Falcons aren't either, but your tribe is getting weaker by each generation. I remember when there were few tribes of Neko's. They were a lot stronger, and ruthless. But now... tame as kittens, compared to the brutality of my time... I know you're listening, and you know I'm right... Neko's are getting weaker. You must be the only exception, Rosa. You and Gado are fools, you are soooo caught up in your so-called hatred to see that your shell's mental conditions are weakening. I would give Konan a break from you, if I were you, or she'll break." Kalius kicked Konan into the wall.

"...Konan, your name is, right?" Asked Kalius, but before a response could be made, the bird morph said. "You remind me of my own sister. I am sorry for beating you up, but I just want you to know... That was directed towards Lunar Rosa. She has become too careless, and with the rapid changes, your mind is trying to cope. But no matter how much it tries to accomidate for two... the stronger being will eventually kill off the weaker one, if it is able to. Just calm down. I don't want you to suffer the same fate as my sister." Kalius smirked before falling to the ground, seeing as there was no physical change, the body didn't morph.
 
ooc: Alrighties diego wants me to skip him so whatevers.


Konan was looknig at Andrews battered body when the shattered cry of an evil laughter made her cat ears twitch and she held them down to protect her sense of hearing. "A-Andrew?" She stuttered, but she was not looknig at Andrew anymore. It was her worst fear. Kalius had came out and was declaring his prominence with one loud maniacal laughter.

"HahahahahAHAH!" Laughed Kalius as he got up off of the deck. "I wouldn't come out if I were you, Lunar Rosa. You seem to care about your shell. If even you come out a few more times, you will destroy Konan's mind and soul." Kalius walked up to Konan and said. "Heh, you think us Falcons are weak, eh? Well, if you were born a thousand years before, then it would be a different story. In fact, there are many things that we kept secret, to our... demise." Konan trembled at the one thing Kalius had said.

"D-destroy.....?" She muttered a flury of tears welling up in her eyes. Konan couldn't believe what she was hearing she could only sit and watch as Kalius toyed with her.

"Heheheheheh... Neko's aren't the ultimate species. Falcons aren't either, but your tribe is getting weaker by each generation. I remember when there were few tribes of Neko's. They were a lot stronger, and ruthless. But now... tame as kittens, compared to the brutality of my time... I know you're listening, and you know I'm right... Neko's are getting weaker. You must be the only exception, Rosa. You and Gado are fools, you are soooo caught up in your so-called hatred to see that your shell's mental conditions are weakening. I would give Konan a break from you, if I were you, or she'll break." Kalius yelled then delivering a hard punch to her abdomen causing Konan to go flying to a nearby wall, slamming hard into it, she griped her abdomen in pain, silent tears fallnig down her face as she was trying to absorb everything.

"...Konan, your name is, right?" Asked Kalius, but before a response could be made, the bird morph said. "You remind me of my own sister. I am sorry for beating you up, but I just want you to know... That was directed towards Lunar Rosa. She has become too careless, and with the rapid changes, your mind is trying to cope. But no matter how much it tries to accomidate for two... the stronger being will eventually kill off the weaker one, if it is able to. Just calm down. I don't want you to suffer the same fate as my sister." Kalius smirked at her before his body plopped to the ground, Konan got to her feat still gripping her stomach marched back to find Atton, only to look back at Andrew. She sighed and grabbed his arm and dragged the unconscious Kalius back to her room. Barely able to place him on the bed. With a hufff, she slammed him down on the soft, marshmellow-like covers.

"Is it true Rosa? If you come out will I......die?" Konan mumbled as she began to converse with her in mindscape.

"........Mostly." Lunar Rosa responded after mere moments of silence.

"Mostly?" Konan asked as she approached the bestial who was sitting by herself with a solumn look on her face.

"Yes, mostly. Sometimes the dominate trait will conquer the weaker trait making the weaker trait the recessive personality. Thats the best case. Worst is that the recessive personality disappears." Lunar Rosa told the young neko.

"So am I going to....?" Konan whispered.

"It's.....a possibiltiy at this point Konan, the more I becoem the dominate personality, the more probability you will become the recessive personality." The silver-haired neko mumbled. "And without your memories, your mental stake is very weak. It's dangerous enough as is. I didn't wanna tell you because well....I didn't wanna scare you. With your thrid frm and how weak you are now. You could easily die anytiem I come out. And if your thridform is out....well. I will die too."

Konan whimered as she sat with her demonic form, chatting with her, about what they were going to do.

----------

A snake-like figure walekd swiftly across the surface of the ship, a smirk on his face. Two long furry ears hidden under a cap. The eighteen year old man finally entered the shop in which Konan had formally been and a collapsed Atton stood hidden under all the scattered clothes still unconscious. The man swiftly entered, he was not noticed by anyone when entering the small shop. The man slowly came to Atton and looked down at him, grabbed him by the neck collar of his shirt, and then proceeded to drag him to an epty shop in the ship. The jackal slammed the uncsonscious Leo against the wall and ordered him. "Wake up." The jackal said as he waited for the leo to stirr.

"When we get to Cerulean, Konan will no longer with a dirty Leo. She'll be with the esteemed jackals. And we will unlock her full potential, it's only a matter of time before Konans personality dissappears from the body. I will be there to make sure what must be done to acquire that young neko's power."
 
(ooc: The stuff at the end, aside from the stats, is important for what is going on with Robo-Corosa.)

Chapter 37: The Dawn of a New Age (Part 1)

(Cerulean Gym)

Rei looked out at the Enel soldiers and all of the people on the ground once again. Some of them had expressions of Depression, fear, anxiety, and other negative expressions. "I heard that some of you were spreading rumors that there was someone who killed Corosa. Well, they are false. And to prove it, here she is!" Rei pointed to the door, and out walked Corosa, who looks like she wasn't cut in half.

"It is a pleasure to be back from my vacation." Said Corosa as she walked up to the stands. "That's right... I'm back from the dead! This means that we truly are unstoppable! Hahahahaaaaaaa!" But something was wrong with Corosa's laugh, it seemed... robotic.

"Now, go to Vermillion City and take Joy's place. I assume you can still do that?" Asked Rei. Corosa nodded before leaving the Gym. "Excellent, Vermillion shall be our next place to conquer. And as a bonus, we found the very same Growlithe that ruined my life, and caused all of this to happen! Treat it as badly as you want... this is all his fault! GAHAHAHAAHH! You can even end its life! You'd better do it before I do though!" And, right there, in the cage, was an Arcanine with large scars on its body, whimpering in pain. Some of the more timid people cried, while the tougher just glared at Rei, just somehow knowing that it was his fault.

"You... are a monster." Said a man, but Rei just laughed. "What? What's so funny?"

"I am a monster, but soon I will be a god. Not even the Goddess of Happiness at full power will be able to stand up to me." Said Rei smugly as he looked at the man.

"Goddess of... Happiness?" Questioned the man, but Rei just snickered.

"Yes, she too is a part of why I am like this. I was too good of a person, I was going to become a Marty Stu, so she destroyed everything around me, and took half of my body away from me, using that Arcanine! Now, I can hardly do anything. I can barely eat, I need to take crazy pills every day, pain pills, a medicine that acts as my immune system, and I can't even be out in the sun for very long, or my old scars will return. With the power of the Devil's Machine, and the eight weapons combined, it will have so much power that it will warp reality! I will literally be a god. I will control everything! I will finally get my arm and leg back! I won't have to take medicines for every single thing that allow me to function! I will be... normal, and pokemon shall be dead. Instead, there will be animals that resemble the Pokemon, but have none of the powers, with the exception of poison for some, and dig, dive, surf... you get the idea." Said Rei in one long statement that was split into several sentences. "We will all live in peace! This city is only a sacrifice to war with a Goddess, and Pokemon."

"You can't fight a Goddess, even if she existed then couldn't she just wave you out of existance?" Asked a woman in the audience. Rei just laughed before saying.

"That isn't the same GOD! You're thinking of Arceus! He can, but chooses not to. You all bore me, begone. Oh, and Alex." Alex looked at Rei. "Kill the Arcanine."

"Yes sir." Said Alex, who looked sorry for the poor Arcanine, how could a 10 year old be so cruel?

(Corosa)

Corosa made it out of the city, but something was wrong, something had hacked into her hardrive(sp?).

System malfunction... running back up scripts...

Backup scripts overrided... Virus detected... running anti-virus program...

Program... fa..e..

"This is an excellent home for me... Oh, I can interact with the outside world! Wow, this is amazing! Now, I really can destroy everything... What's this? I... I'm getting the feeling... I have to do this."

"Interesting. These characters are interesting... but no match for the Paradise Virus." Said the Paradise Virus as it controlled Corosa's body to walk down to Vermillion anyway.
 
The tortured soul

ooc: I ish bored so I am gonna post for the hell of it.

"I'm gonna dissappear if you help me....?" Konan had a lump in her throat the size of a baseball. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, yet she could in some sick twisted manner in made sense. Why she was becoming increasingly weak these past few weeks, why she could feel herself fading away like some type of forgotten drawing. She could feel herself fading from existance even now as they stood here talking.

"Yes, but I am too fading away." Lunar Rosa solumly said with no emotion. She didn't seem to care in fact Luna Rosa seemed tortured to even be alive. It sounded like she hated to be alive, being tortured by the very fact that your lover had killed you. It made Konan feel a bit sympathetic torwar Rosa.

"Your fading too?" She mumbled, and the other neko merely nodded.

"Aetherion is become more powerful, and if it becomes the dominant personality. There will be no stopping it. We will cease to exist and our body will be nothing but a beast. Atton, Gado, Kalius, and Andrew will feel it's effects even now I think they can feel it. We are fading from existance Konan, the impending pressure of death ways heavy on us." Rosa predicted as Konan saw crystal tears beginning to drip down the neko's eyes. Even Rosa herself was afraid of death. It was inevitable, their demise would come soon. Konan shuddered at the thought of embracing death with open arms. Would anyone remember her? No, they wouldn't. She began to feel the impending pressure of a fading existance.

"We can't tell the others, we will not let them suffer this burdan." Konan resolved. Rosa merely shook her head and took the backside of her hand and wiped away the tears. Konan had never seen Rosa cry, only when she had seen Gado did she see the pain and hurt in Rosa's eyes.

"I'm tired of living mainly, you don't know what it's like. Sitting and waiting for hte right moment to come out only to fight. Unable to just relax for one single day, to be free. I don't know how I was reincarnated but maybe it's Arceus's form of punishment for me. For becoming attached to a mortal enemy. I feel like I've lingered in this world for to long. I just I want to be free from my tortured soul. The pain of a previous life. The pain of knowing I was killed by the man I loved." Rosa mumbled her voice becoming unbelieving weak as the neko began to tremble and the tears of long standing gaping wound had emerge. Rosa may not have shown it but Konan could sense that Rosa had been suffering for so long and sympathy torwards her arose once more.

"I can't imagine how that feels." Konan whispered as she exited mindscape to leave Rosa to her tohughts, she knew Rosa wouldn't wanna be seen that way. Konan emerged from her mind trance state noticing that Andrew was still unconscious she left the room and went out to the deck which was now obviously empty. She sat on one of the chairs and staired at the crystal blew water from the pool which gently waved back and forth. Konan couldn't help but feel silent tears fall down her face. She felt the pressure, it was already decided since the point she started this journey and began allowing Lunar Rosa to come out as much as she did.

The smell of sea tingled Konans senses as she watched the blue sky watching the wingull fly by, and the clouds idly passing by. She felt envy for everyone. Their life force wasn't dwindling. Minute by minute she would fade from existance. And so would Lunar Rosa. The only remnants of her would be her third form. A beast that only destroys everything it touched. Konan continued to cry. She felt weak, uneeded, a burden. She then began to think of how Atton had nearly died protecting her, she gave a slight smile at all the good things he had done for her, and how had she repayed him? She always had to be rescued and she was sick of it. For once she wanted to be of use. To fight along side with him and rescue someone else. Rescuing Lance was tough but it wasn't what she had in mind when she though of the word 'rescue'.
 
Post in progress

A completely lifeless Atton was out of the blue taken by the collar of his shirt by an unrecognized figure and taken away from his not-so-comfortable rest spot. Well, it wasn't really resting; but lying there unconscious was too long of a term. ~What…. What is going on?~ Atton thought to himself as his eyelids began to plop open slowly; really slowly. Actually, they only opened so much that his eyelashes still blurred most of his eyesight. Only shadows and rough silhouettes could be barely identified. Atton tried to turn from side to side to know who was tugging him, for whoever that was, obviously had intentions of hurting him; and that could be easily deduced because of the way that such an imposing figure was dragging him. His feet were being pulled through some sharp dross and tiles on the floor, getting inside his shoes and applying pressure every single passing second. His long arms also took his hands to the ground, where the coldness of this one made the fists subconsciously curl up into a fist.

~C'mon, Atton; you're in some deep one if you don't wake up. This person is going to hurt you. If he hurts you, I'll hit you.~ Gado said nervously as he appeared in mindscape, bringing Atton with him and shaking his shoulders as soon as he arrived.

~Nah, really?~ Atton said quizzically. ~Shut up, Gado; I know what I have to do. I mean, like; YOU got me unconscious in first place. Yes, that which you showed me was really profound, but there was no need for making me faint so quickly. See what you got us into? Thanks.~

~You shut up, scum! If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't… Woah!~

All of a sudden, the person released the death grasp from Atton and violently slammed him against a wall; the echo provoked leading Atton to think the room was empty. The sudden change of lighting, from normal to hideously dark; also supported his idea. The body fell down to the ground slowly, like a ball of goo rolling to the floor and slamming a whole bunch of empty cardboard boxes as he did. A fair amount of nails pierced Atton's skin as a cold and bloodthirsty voice ordered, "Wake up."

Almost mechanically, Atton's eyes opened fully, in shock, and obeying. In front of him, a man presumably as tall as him and of similar body structure stood; inimically staring down at him.
[FONT=&quot]"When we get to Cerulean, Konan will no longer with a dirty Leo. She'll be with the esteemed jackals. And we will unlock her full potential, it's only a matter of time before Konans personality dissappears from the body. I will be there to make sure what must be done to acquire that young neko's power." [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The voice was incredibly shallow and cold. The words slowly echoed inside Atton's head, bouncing from one side of his head to the other. That voice… It was so familiar. In fact, it was a rough alike to the voice of the jackal in Gado's dream. Actually, you could put it that was. That male's voice is to the leader jackal's voice as Atton's was to Gado's. So similar. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"A… A jackal..." Gado and Atton whispered in unison as Atton's eyes looked up to lock on the male's face.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"You mother—!" Atton yelled as he slung his arms forth and back in an incredibly quick fashion, grabbing momentum so that he could stand up. Swiftly pushing his body off the wall with one foot, an infuriated Atton threw himself at the jackal like a wild beast. His veins could be seen through his skin, and his fists, claws and fangs grew at an insane pace. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Seconds before the fist hit, the jackal took the hand and slammed Atton against the ground, using his own force and energy to treat his body like a straight, stiff board and hit him all at once. Atton didn't even have a second to react. If he was fully conscious, he could've at least protected himself from the fall; but no. He had just woken up, and he was driven by fury. How was it paid back? Like that. A crater was made where Atton landed, and he could feel his whole body break. That guy had just treated him like a rag doll. "Urgh…" Atton mumbled unintelligibly as he looked up, just in time to the see figure kneeling down in front of him and turning him around completely. He kicked Atton's chinbone and then turned around, saying;[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"Listen, Atton. Yes, I know your name; I know it like I know all of your life, and the life of that one inside you. Who am I? You'll find out soon. I'm just going to warn you. Stay away from the Neko. Half of Aetherion lies within Kohanna. It's a force that has been unleashed at least once already. Yours, on the other hand; prft, it hasn't even been hinted. I'll get back to you later. You better don't mess with me if you don't want to find yourself dead."[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The man then stepped over to the entrance of the room, or the exit, from this point of view, and without turning back, said "And tell Gado that, 'things come back to you, sooner or later." The man then walked out, closed the door, which made a locking sound immediately, and walked away.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot](This part to be edited soon.)[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]It was then when Atton noticed he was in a giant refrigerator. Yes, the room was used for storing food, but seeing as the ship was so big, this one probably wasn't used anymore. The thermometer behind him began to lower its line of mercury at a frightening pace, and out of some ducts, white, snowy air began to come out at a quick pace. "Dammit!" Atton yelled as he ran to the door, tackling it. Of course, he just bounced back. It could only be opened by the outside, and the door was so thick and of such an impressively strong material that Atton couldn't even dent it. That, and Gado was too weak to come out. The only sight he caught from the outside was through a small window, squared and with a plastic-glass just as thick. "Help!" Atton yelped over and over as he slammed his body against the walls and door, threw things around to make noise, and even roared at times. Maybe his sounds could be heard through the vents, but he didn't know. After some minuted passed, even the thermometer froze, and Atton's skin had turned a light blue color. He was trembling so hard, and he lied uselessly in the center of the room, waiting for the rest of his blood to freeze. "Aw… Man, this sucks." He whispered to himself as a thick cloud of white air came out of his mouth. Closing his eyes, Atton waited for his cold death.[/FONT]
 
Chapter 38: Dawn of a New Age: The Cult of Darkrai Appears! The Game Show that Takes Place on the Ship!(Part 2)

Andrew awoke in his room, once again. "Man, why? Why? Why Rei?" Asked Andrew to the ceiling. "I just knew it. Everyone I meet either hates me, or dies. And in this case, it's both. Rei is a genius, and I'm pretty sure that whatever he's building will be powerful... even more-so then any of the Guardians we fought."

Andrew got up and walked to the deck of the ship, looking out onto the ocean below. "Why are we cursed? If Rei leads Team Enel, then he knows my weakness... Elisa's an admin, and can probably get stronger using their technology. And there's Marcus, who outclasses everyone on this ship now. I got lucky when I fought him." A man on the deck walked up to him.

"Hey, you look like someone who's down in the dumps. How's about I do something about that." Said the man. Andrew opened his mouth, but the man kept going on. "I can put you in our little game show, let you have some fun, and possibly get money out of it."

"Uh... thanks, but no." Said Andrew, but the man simply opened his eyes to a squint, a flash went off, and Andrew started screaming. "Gaaaahhhh!"

"You see, no anthro rejects... ever. When you are to go on our show. You. Go. On." Said the man, still smiling his creepy smile. "It starts at eight o' clock tonight, if you are late, then you will pay us a fine." Andrew just nodded as he squirmed in pain. "Good..." The man then walked away, to find others who would want to play. Andrew then got up, shaking.

"What the hell was that?" Asked Andrew before slowly walking to his room, where he collapsed, but was unable to fall unconscious.

(Deck)

The man walked up to Konan and tapped her on the shoulder. "Hello, young lady. But you look down, how about I do something about that?" He waited a second before saying. "We have a game show on this ship, and we would like for you to join, and before you reject the offer. I'll say this, you can't. You will meet me and the contestants here at eight, or else your brain will fry, killing you." The man smiled excitedly before saying. "If you want to see what low power does, look at this falcon morph I saw earlier. He rejected, and now... I'm not sure how he's doing. Oh, and if you kill me, every competitor will die." The man smiled even bigger before starting to walk away.

"Oh, and you might want to check in the older refridgerators, some Leo is freezing his whiskers off in there." The man then walked into a door, likely to get ready.

(Man)

The man walked to his mirror, as another man appeared in it. "Is everything going according to plan?" Asked the hooded man.

"Yes, master. The Cult of Darkrai will benefit from what happens at eight. After the Game Show, we shall finish off the Anthro rebels." Said the man.

"Good, good. It is what our lord commands us to do. And what do you propose to do about this Enel nonsense?" Asked the man in the mirror.

"If all goes according to plan, then nothing. This Rei kid is crazy, and would probably be doing Darkrai a favor with his plan." Said the man as the hooded man disappeared. "Hehehe..."
 
Walking along the ship, Konan found her gloominess to go away with the serene peace of the sea. She gently looked out at the gently waves swirling in the ocean blue. She could see a school of remoraid following the ship eagerly waiting for meager morsles of food to be tossed off board and to devour the potential nom noms that awaited them. Konan smiled happily. She felt completely tranquil looking at the sea pokemon until a voice whispered in her ear. Like an entity or a ghost.

"Kill them. Kill them. I'm waiting. Kill them." The voice muttered over and over. The voice was terribly raspy in tone and its gender was undistinguishable. It made Konans spine shiver in terror. It was as if something was trying to convince to kill someone or something. It sounded evil. Demonic almost. Konan lost all color in her face when it whispered. "Yes, kill them. Kill Atton, and Andrew. Kill all of them." The voice was growing forcibly louder and Konan pulled her cat ears down trying to block out the terrifying raspy voice. But just as quick as it had come, it was gone and Konans cheeks returned to their normal peachy shade.

She breathed a sigh of relief when the voice disappeared. She looked around to see that the entire deck was empty. It appeared to be lunchtime. But Konan wasn't to hungry. She looked quietly back out at sea and gave a sigh of gloominess. She didn't feel sad, She didn't feel depressed. She just felt like something was weighing her down. Was it the impending curse of death? Yeah, that was probably it.

"GAAAAH!" Andrews voice echoed throughout the deck. Konans ears tiwitched frantically. She looked around and gasped as she heard the scream.

"*((&*&! Andrew must be up! He's hurt he can't be roamind the ship in his condition!" Konan yelled about to go look for Andrew until a mysterious man tapped her on the shoulder.

"Hello, young lady. But you look down, how about I do something about that?" He waited a second before saying. "We have a game show on this ship, and we would like for you to join, and before you reject the offer. I'll say this, you can't.

"Excuse me? I can't reject an offer? It's a free region dude you can't tell me what to do!" Konan interrupted him but he continued his threats about the game show.

You will meet me and the contestants here at eight, or else your brain will fry, killing you." The man smiled excitedly before saying. "If you want to see what low power does, look at this falcon morph I saw earlier. He rejected, and now... I'm not sure how he's doing. Oh, and if you kill me, every competitor will die." The man smiled even bigger before starting to walk away. He looked back at her a twisted smile across his skinny lips.

"Oh, and you might want to check in the older refridgerators, some Leo is freezing his whiskers off in there." The man then walked into a door, likely to get ready.

"Atton!" She yelped running down through the ships corridors. Andrew was a concern to but if Atton was in imminent danger she had to do something. Atton had saved her so many times. Now it was her chance to save him and Andrew. Was this a sign from Arceus? yes, it was! he wanted her to become a hero and not just be an innocent victum all the time. She ran down to the deepest part of the hull it was filled with all types of old fridges.

"The man said he was in here....So maybe.... he's in here.." She opened the fridge one by one until she opened the last fridge door. She saw the leo laying on the ground. His face pale from the cold.

"No!" She cried and grabbed him dragging out of the fridge. Konan could barely move him. He was about 5 times bigger then she was in height and weight.

"nngh..." His voice stirred. Good that meant he was still alive and kicking. grabbing him once more Konan dragged him up the stairs and back into the middle depths of the ship. Panting by the time she got to the deck, she continued to dragged his cold body into the room where she had previously put Andrew. To her surprise Andrew was in there as well. Using all her strength she lifted Atton onto the spare bed and collapsed onto her butt on the carpet.

"Damn Atton your heavy." Konan tried to make a joke out of the situation but she couldn't. Nothing could be done. It was bad enough two of her dearest friends in the world were hurt but now she had to go on ome creepy game show that if she didn't would fryu her brain. Getting up off her feet she pulled a blanket over Atton. She then turned her attention to Andrew. "Hey Andrew what happened back there. The game show, how can he fry our brains...I don't get it." Konan mumbled as she lifted him ont othe bed. Luckily Andrew was considerably lighter then Atton which was good on Konans already aching muscles. She noticed Anrew wasn't unconscious but not fully there. She was the only one that had not been seriously hurt on this trip. Hurrying off into the bathroom she grabbed some warm washrags for both of them. Konan didn't know how to be a nurse so this was the best she could do. Place a warm rag on Atton to help him warm up and one on Andrew to soothe his tensing muscles.

"Looks like I'm playing nurse~" She laughed and sat down on a nearby chair.
 
(ooc: This reaction is a bad nightmare from Darkrai.)

Chapter 39: Whispers of Insanity: Andrew's Nightmarish Illusion! The Games Begin!

"Konan..." Whispered Andrew, hearing her voice. "Help me, the room... the room is, getting darker! AAAH! Get away from me!" Yelled Andrew as he fired a Gust at the lamp, thinking it was a monster. "Let me out of here!!! Get me out of this mad house!" And at that point, Andrew 'got up' and started running away, but in reality, he was still on the bed, screaming and squirming, everything he says in his illusion being spoken in real life.

(Illusion)

"Where am I?" Asked Andrew supposedly in a jungle. "What's going on?" Andrew looked around before deciding to move, not feeling safe. Suddenly, vines wrapped around his wrists and ankles. "Gah! Get off of me!!!" And with a small expulsion of wind, he escaped form the vines. But not long after that, he saw a man in black robes.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill Konan, kill Konan... Kill the cat girl!" Whispered the man as an illusion of Konan, Elisa, his mother, Kalius, Marcus, Alex and Atton appeared in his head. "All of them, kill all of them!! DO IT!"

"Go away!" Yelled Andrew as he fired a wind blade at the man, but he grabbed The illusion of Andrew's mom, and that blocked him from getting hit. "Get the **** away from me! Let them go!"

"Why should I? I have the power, and you will kill them all." Said the man. Andrew backed up.

"No, I won't!" Yelled Andrew before rushing up, ready to punch the man, but Marcus' Illusion came up and took the hit, his head tearing away from his body, and starting to bleed severely. "No, Marcus!"

(ooc: Yes, he only reacts like that because Marcus was, in some weird way, his ally.)

"Slowly but surely." Whispered the man as the Atton illusion charged. Andrew ducked before blasting him with wind, but Atton's skin started tearing off until he was just a skeleton.

"Atton! No!" Yelled Andrew, and this is when Alex attacked from behind. Andrew, using his reflexes, karate chopped Alex into the wall, killing him. "A-alex..." At that point, he started crying, as he killed his only true friend. The man from the game show was now there and was smiling, Rei as well, and that was just making him feel worse.

Elisa flew in after him, but Andrew, flung out a wind blade, cutting her in half. "Why, brother? Why?" Asked Illusion Elisa as she died.

"No... not you too... Elisa!" Yelled Andrew before starting to cry even worse, he had just killed his sister, or so he thought.

Only the man, Kalius' illusion, and Konan's illusion were left. Kalius' illusion fired a wind blade, but Andrew was able to dodge, but he hit Kalius' leg and broke it. And, in a move he couldn't control, he tore off Kalius' illusion's head. Only the man, and a scared Konan's illusion was left. "Do it, bite off her head. Drink her blood." All Andrew could do is watch as his body marched over to Konan's illusion.

"P-please, d-d-don't kill me." Pleaded Konan's illusion, but Andrew's body wouldn't listen as it spoke out four words that mislead her.

"I won't kill you Konan." The illusion relaxed, but Andrew's body grabbed her and dragged her to the man, who took her in his hands. "He will." And in a moment, her body exploded, ending his dream.

(Conscious)

"AAAAAHHHHH!!!" Yelled Andrew before regaining sense. "Konan! You're alive!" Andrew hugged Konan before seeing Atton. "You're alive too! Atton!" And he hugged Atton as well, happy that he didn't kill anyone. Alex, who had gotten out of his pokeball, walked up to his master and said.

"Whoa, what's happening here?" But he too was hugged by Andrew.

"Alex, you are alive! I didn't kill you either!" Yelled Andrew in joy before looking at the room, which looked severely trashed. "Woah, what happened in here?" He looked at the clock, which said 7:45. "Whoa! We gotta go!" And with that, Andrew ran out of the room, not wanting to be late.

(Deck)

The man was standing there, as a few... maybe six or seven anthros are already there. "Hehehe... five minutes to showtime... Get in your places!" He yelled to the camera crew. It was at about this point that Andrew ran in.

"Heh, hope I'm not late..." Said Andrew as he stood with the other competitors. The man smiled his creepy smile.

"No... you're just in time... your friend made it here in time too. Now, let's start this game." Said the man as he signaled to the crowd, most of which cheered out.

"Obstacle Challenge Deux!"

"To the newbies of this show, this is a team challenge show, with three competitions per episode, each based off of a game that has been recommended to us. Tonight, though is special, since two very famous anthros have joined in on this episode. Introducing... Kohanna Feles, and Andrew Verico!" Yelled the man excitedly. The crowd cheered, and the man decided to explain to them why they are famous. "These two have survived fighting two God-like creatures, and obtained weapons of immense power! Hopefully they'll survive this show!" The crowd started cheering at that. The man backed up as a large platform was shown above the ship.

"Today our first theme is... Tetris! Each anthro must dodge all of the blocks that fall to the ground. You can't get trapped either, or you will be eliminated! And just remember, by agreeing to this show, you have forefit all legal responsibilities in case of death, because TV just needs real danger for once." Said the man as he and the competitors disappeared, onto the platform.

"When I blow my whistle, the blocks will start falling. You have two minutes to survive! And you all will be assigned partners for the second and third challenges, as is customary with this game. You get to pick." Said the man as he put the whistle to his lips. "Aaaannd... go!" Yelled the man who then blew the whistle. A block fell onto a Wingull, crushing it to bits... they weren't kidding around...

They didn't care...

They wanted them all dead...

(ooc: Yeah, next chapter he'll be back to normal. Right now, he's happy that he didn't kill everybody, especially in the ways in the dream.)

Ooc: had to get one up eventually xD

Konan was sitting watching her two male companions her ears twitching anxiously. Her tail wagged in worry. The waves the crashed against the ship seemed to mock her. They seemed to say 'You are weak your useless.' Konan shook with worry. She looked at Andrew. He seemed to show signs of having a nightmare. All was still. The eery silence haunted Konan menacingly.


"AAAAAHHHHH!!!" Yelled Andrew before regaining sense. "Konan! You're alive!" Andrew hugged Konan before seeing Atton. "You're alive too! Atton!" And he hugged Atton as well. Konan breathed a sigh of relief as she saw Andrew walking around and having the strength to hug a person.

"What the hell are you talking about. You seem to have had a nightmare." Konan giggled trying to lighten the mood. Her spirits lifted when she saw Attons eyes move as well.

"Nnggh..." He whispered his muscles were tensing up as he opened his eyes. Konan put her hands over her mouth to cover a gasp and to cover the oncoming tears that were forming in her eyes. Her two dearest friends in the world were alive. That was one more worry off of Konans shoulder. She had completely forgotten how her life force was fading. All she cared about was being with her friends. Andrew had ran to hug his pokemon who looked at him curiously. Attom slowly got out of the bed and stretched his muscles he had regained color in his skin. Andrew glanced over to the clock.

"Whoa! We gotta go!" And with that, Andrew ran out of the room, not wanting to be late. Konan nodded, and grabbed Attons hand. They too ran out of the room. The two clambered up the stairs trying to catch up to Andrew. They had managed to come up on the deck. They both panted heavily. Konan still guiding Atton came to the deck. Iris and Lance were already there. A wolf girl was present, as well as a man covered in a black robe who was standing there eyeing the situation carefully. The wolf girl didn't appear to give a damn about the whole situation.

"Heh, hope I'm not late..." Said Andrew as he stood with the other competitors. The man smiled his creepy smile. The wolf girl scoffed. The man covered in black glanced over at the other man. Lance and Iris clung to each other uneasily. Andrew was ready to face this foe head on. While Konan and Atton just watched warily. Waiting...

"No... you're just in time... your friend made it here in time too. Now, let's start this game." Said the man as he signaled to the crowd, most of which cheered out.

"Obstacle Challenge Deux!"

Konan gasped. "WE ARE ON A T.V. SHOW?! WHERES MY STUNT DOUBLE?!" Konan cried and began to panic. People would be watching her on t.v.

"Calm down. Don't get worked up. He only wants you to panic. Thats part of his game." The wolf girl stated.

"Calm...?" Konan whispered.

"To the newbies of this show, this is a team challenge show, with three competitions per episode, each based off of a game that has been recommended to us. Tonight, though is special, since two very famous anthros have joined in on this episode. Introducing... Kohanna Feles, and Andrew Verico!" Yelled the man excitedly. The crowd cheered, and the man decided to explain to them why they are famous. "These two have survived fighting two God-like creatures, and obtained weapons of immense power! Hopefully they'll survive this show!" The crowd started cheering at that. The man backed up as a large platform was shown above the ship.

Konan hissed uneasily. She hadn't fought God-like creatures, Lunar Rosa had. All she had been is a burden so far... She vowed to changed that. The spotlight shown on Andrew and Konan. Konan stepped up and flashed a fanged grin.

"So do I get paid for this crap or what?" Konan chuckled.

"Be careful. I have a bad feeling about this." Lunar Rosa mumbled.

"Today our first theme is... Tetris! Each anthro must dodge all of the blocks that fall to the ground. You can't get trapped either, or you will be eliminated! And just remember, by agreeing to this show, you have forefit all legal responsibilities in case of death, because TV just needs real danger for once." Said the man as he and the competitors disappeared, onto the platform.

"Not like we had much choice in the matter." Konan yelled to the man hosting the game. She walked up with Andrew.

"When I blow my whistle, the blocks will start falling. You have two minutes to survive! And you all will be assigned partners for the second and third challenges, as is customary with this game. You get to pick." Said the man as he put the whistle to his lips. "Aaaannd... go!" Yelled the man who then blew the whistle. A block fell onto a Wingull, crushing it to bits... they weren't kidding around...

"Alright ready for this Andrew?" Konan laughed. A slow blue intensifying aurua engulfed her. Her eyes turning a deep red. She wasn't Lunar Rosa. It was Aetherion. Waiting to play with her new toy."

"Heh. Heh..Hahahaha. You dare challenge me? The power that caused the anthros to go to war? Fine bring it on." Aetherion boomed at the man. The man nodded and blew thhe whistle. The challenge was on.
 
(ooc: Edward's name goes out to Edward Cullen, the most 'perfect' character ever written. He makes me sick.)

Chapter 40: Round 1: Tetris Smash: Kalius Returns!

Andrew looked at Aetherion, shocked. "Konan?" Asked Andrew, confused. After all, he hadn't seen her like this before.

(Kalius)

Kalius looked on in horror. "G-girl... no, your soul can't be shattered! I won't let it!"

"What? Kalius? What's wrong with you!? Not that I'm complaining." Said Andrew, but Kalius took control quickly.

(Outside)

Kalius looked at Aetherion before blasting a tetris block that nearly crushed him, in half. "Aetherion, so we meet at last." Said Kalius as he jumped out of the path of a block. The man, whom we shall call Edward, was starting to worry.

"Oh... oh, no... Kalius and Aetherion? I would have enough trouble with the ex-tyrant, but the natural disaster too?" Asked Edward as he gripped his charm. "Grr... Our lord didn't give me enough information on how to handle both of them... Hmm, whatever happens, those two must never be paired up... ever."

"Hmm... it looks like you bit off more then you could chew, hm?" Asked a man from behind Edward. "It seems that you need help, hm." Said the man as his brown hair blew in the wind.

"Leave, I don't need your help, Mercury!" Stated Edward, but Mercury smirked.

"You need more then you think you do." Said Mercury as he touched the bar. After a second, he pulled back, and liquified metal came pouring down. "I can handle Aetherion, after the competition, while you and your cronies fight Kalius."

"Mercury, not even you can handle the whole cause of the war!" Exclaimed Edward, but Mercury smirked.

"Aetherion is a power that flows into the feline tribes at birth... I have some within me, I can beat her, even if she has most of it." Said Mercury as he scratched the top of his cloak, which kept his face a secret. "And mine is poison to her." Mercury then disappeared, ready to play with the anthros.

"He doesn't have it... egotistical leo." Muttered Edward as he looked back onto the playing field.

(Kalius)

Kalius looked at Aetherion before jumping back, avoiding certain death. "Whoa... this is going to be tough." Said Kalius as he flew back once more, barely avoiding the blocks.

The other anthros were doing pretty good, and were able to avoid being crushed.

Aetherion was able to avoid the blocks, or destroy them, as she wasn't dead as of yet.

"Man... o-oh man." Gasped Kalius as he looked over towards the sides. He saw a man in a cloak that resembled Organization XIII's cloak. "That guy... I-I'm not sure if I could beat him." Mercury looked at Kalius before pointing up. Kalius looked up before blowing the Tetris block into the sea below.

"What's wrong with me? Are the new-aged beings getting more powerful each generation?" Asked Kalius before jumping on the top block. The challenge is almost done. It seemed that most, if not all of the anthros were almost up there.

"Out of my way!" Yelled an Aipom anthro that wasn't seen earlier as he jumped on Kalius' head, and used that to boost him into the air, where he grabbed onto the next tetris block, a bomb, and sent it into the sea. And with that, the bell rang... the two minutes were up.

"Congratulations for all of you!" Smiled Edward, although inside, he was furious. If that Aipom morph hadn't interfered, theb he would have killed off both Kalius, and Aetherion. "Now, here are your partners!"

Andrew and Forrest
Kohanna and Iris
Atton and Mercury
Lance and Sharon

"We have a new competitor, he got here late, but is a promising Leo. Meet, Mercury Kharisa!" Yelled Edward as Mercury walked up on stage.

"Yes, I'm a late entry, but I was kind of in the middle of all of this." Said Mercury as his red eyes looked at Aetherion. "Ah, it seems we have celeberties here. Congratulations on making it through the first round." Mercury smiled, but killing intent poured towards Aetherion.

"And now Round 2! We have a theme from a little known board game known as Break the Safe. A lot of you probably never heard of it. Each Team must navigate through a mansion and collect a key. These keys are your ticket for getting out of there. But watch out, as if the guard catches you, then... well, the torture is picked at random. Also, your powers will be taken away for this, as to provent cheating." And with that, collars were placed on all eight of their necks.

"You also have a time limit of 15 minutes, the minimum time of the actual game. All of you, have a great time, and remember, there are traps that will kill you if you don't get the right tool. You have five minutes to discuss with the others, while we go to commercial break. For all of you viewers, stay tuned, for there will be more of this coming at you!" Said Edward, as he started typing on the computer.

Kalius walked over to Aetherion and said. "I don't care how powerful you are, but if Konan's soul is gone, you will die. I don't want to lose someone like my sister ever again." Kalius then walked away, to meet up with the Aipom morph, known as Forrest.
 
The blocks began to fall. One by one Aetherion dodged with great agillity. The most unexpected thing came from when Aetherion shot what appeared to a blue hyper beam out of her mouth destroying one of the blocks into nothing, and then landing on the ground with great elegance. The challenge kept going for several minutes. Iris Lance and the two other anthro's were fairing quite well. Soon the blocks began to stop falling. Aetherion chuckled a bit. "I haven't had this much fun in forever. Entertaining." She smirked and then looked up at the two men. A smug glare on her face. A glare that could freeze over hell.

"Out of my way!" A mysterious voice called out and rushing into the fray. Aetherion scoffed.

"Another idiot eh?" Aetherion glared, she had no intention of fighting. She just wanted to see what kind of havoc she could cause before Konan took control again.

Congratulations for all of you!" Smiled Edward, although inside, he was furious. If that Aipom morph hadn't interfered, theb he would have killed off both Kalius, and Aetherion. "Now, here are your partners!"

Andrew and Forrest
Kohanna and Iris
Atton and Mercury
Lance and Sharon
Yuki and Yohaku

"We have a new competitor, he got here late, but is a promising Leo. Meet, Mercury Kharisa!" Yelled Edward as Mercury walked up on stage.

"Yes, I'm a late entry, but I was kind of in the middle of all of this." Said Mercury as his red eyes looked at Aetherion. "Ah, it seems we have celeberties here. Congratulations on making it through the first round." Mercury smiled, but killing intent poured towards Aetherion.

"Don't smile to me. Don't smile with that fake smile. It makes me sick." Aetherion told him and glared at him. The crystal blue eyes looked through him. Into his very soul. "Egotistical Leo. Don't talk to me."

Aetherion looked back at Atton. Leos were always very competitive with others and with each other. Aetherion smiled a bit. This was going to be fun. The wolf girl was standing around as well. She looked a bit tired of this game. The man in black was eteing Aetherion warrily. Atton was glaring at Mercury. it was quite obvious he did not want another leo in the competition.

"And now Round 2! We have a theme from a little known board game known as Break the Safe. A lot of you probably never heard of it. Each Team must navigate through a mansion and collect a key. These keys are your ticket for getting out of there. But watch out, as if the guard catches you, then... well, the torture is picked at random. Also, your powers will be taken away for this, as to provent cheating." And with that collars were placed on all eight of their necks. Aetherion scoffed. She had good physical abilities but decided enough was enough. She didn;t feel like doing some stupid maze.

"You also have a time limit of 15 minutes, the minimum time of the actual game. All of you, have a great time, and remember, there are traps that will kill you if you don't get the right tool. You have five minutes to discuss with the others, while we go to commercial break. For all of you viewers, stay tuned, for there will be more of this coming at you!" Said Edward, as he started typing on the computer.

The crowd cheered. If this was what counted as entertainment. Aetherion thought it was quite unnesscary. Putting people in a game that could kill them. When the time came Aetherion would kill this Edward man. Mercury. And anyone else that dared to challenge her.

Kalius walked over to Aetherion and said. "I don't care how powerful you are, but if Konan's soul is gone, you will die. I don't want to lose someone like my sister ever again." Kalius then walked away, to meet up with the Aipom morph, known as Forrest.

"Heh, foolish Kalius. Your reguarding that pathetic girl as a sister. Well I guarantee you by the end of the night. Konan will be gone." She muttered under her breath. As the aurua retreated Konan came to her senses. Her eyes barely open. She yawned. She was exhausted to her very core.

"Eh...I'm paired up with KONAN?!" Iris yelled. The two girls glanced at each other. It soon turned to a comedic glare.

"Well it looks like we will be working together on this one. I know you don't want to die. And I don't want to die." Konan smiled at Iris and the glares relaxed a bit. Konan and iris didn't want to admit it but they were friends.

The wolf girl and the cloaked man looked at each other. They both had cold looks on their faces. Atton was glaring at Mercury and Lance was trying to woo this Sharron character.

"So....We have to think of a plan or we are screwed..." Iris mumbled. Konan nodded.

"We are navigating through a mansion...And looking for a key so it wouldn;t be good to split up. And we can't use our powers... We need to think. Keys in game shows are always hidden in weird places."

"Maybe...the basement...?" Iris mumbled.

"And then there is the guard...Iris one of us has to go in frotn of each other n case guards I-" Konan couldn't finish her sentence before something amazing happened.

"No. We'll find a weapon once we get inside. If they aren't supernatural they should be easy to defeat with physical abilities." Iris mumbled. Konan was surprised iris was actually thinking through for once.

"Now where would a key be....?"

ooc: I know I added people to the partner thing. But Yuki and Yohaku are the water and death wielders ^^;
 
(ooc: It's okay, I forgot about them. :P Also, I'm making Mercury out to be a lot stronger then he actually is, but he's still really powerful, and Aetherion could match up with him.)

Chapter 41: Round 2: Break the Safe: Mercury's Power!

Kalius glared at Aetherion as she turned back into Konan. "Not if I have anything to say about it. Damn it, how can I save her soul?" Asked Kalius before morphing back into Andrew.

"Whoa, does Kalius... actually have a heart? Wow, that's weird. He's never shown any kind feelings to anything before." Said Andrew to himself before looking at Forrest. "Are you ready?" The Aipom morph nodded as he scratched his head with his tail, but suddenly, Sharon walked up to them. He was a Sableye morph, and his eyes were the jewel-like eyes Sableyes have.

"Hello, it seems that we were not destined to be on the same team. I am here to warn you, There are people here that are incredibly powerful. Forrest is as powerful as you, and Mercury...I heard that he was the strongest of all of the Sinnoh tribes, and is by far one of the most powerful here, but that may not be true." Said Sharon as he scratched the side of his head. "Either way, I'm not sure if even Aetherion could beat him, he has the ability to control heat and fire, he's really dangerous, and can even melt the bones off of your skin if you can't get away in time."

"What? What kind of thing can do that?" Asked Andrew, talking about the overpowered guy. "I mean, seriously, how can we beat him?"

"Andrew... the guy is a fire elemental... you need a water elemental, or a large body of water. That will weaken him greatly." Said Sharon as he looked at Mercury. "Ice will work too, and Wind... well, not so much."

"If he's so powerful, then why is he taking orders from that man?" Asked Andrew. Sharon looked at Edward and said.

"Heh, it's a ruse. Mercury leads him. He is the world's most wanted man, with a bounty of one-hundred million." Sharon looked at Andrew. "If my predictions are right, then he shouldn't kill you here. But I was wrong about me being your partner, and that could throw me off."

Mercury walked over to Andrew and Sharon. "Heh, it's a nice day, isn't it?" Asked Mercury before walking away. As he left, Andrew swore that he saw the deck of the ship burst into flames for but a moment.

"!" Exclaimed Andrew, seeing the floor charred black. "The power in that man... Kalius doesn't stand a chance!"

"Don't worry about it. He's only here to test you all out, which is why this whole thing is even being done." Said Sharon as he started to walk away.

"... Team Enel has nothing on that Mercury fellow." Said Andrew, scared out of his mind. "Oh, god... I have never been so close to death in my life."

(Edward)

Edward finally grabbed the microphone. "And now, Round two preporations are complete! Preparing transport! Any last words?"

"Bababababah..." Stuttered Andrew.

"We will win, even though my partner's scared out of his mind." Said Forrest as that team disappeared.

"Well, I have no reason to fear." Said Sharon as he and Lance walked up to the teleporter.

"..." And that was Mercury as he walked up to the teleporter.

"And ready for Round 2!" Yelled Edward as they transported to the second station. "Starting the clock! If you do not collect a key, you will die... GO!"

And with that, the doors opened.

(Mansion)

Forrest ran in quickly with Andrew going even faster. "Andrew, calm down! You may not be here willingly, but you shouldn't be so scared!" Yelled Forrest as he stopped. "What's bothering you?"

"Mercury... he's so powerful... even with the collar, he can still force fire out." Said Andrew. Forrest rolled his eyes.

"Andrew, Mercury is powerful, and it is right to be afraid of him, but... get over it." Said Forrest as the duo entered the satellite room. "Oh, great. We don't have a tool."

"Well, we weren't provided anything, so maybe..." Started Andrew as he opened the box. The trap was a bunch of bees, but he was able to jump back in time. This box held the key, but it was surrounded by the bees. "Crap... we need insect spray."

"Yeah, normally Swift would do the job, but the collars took our powers away." Said Forrest as the two ran out of the room.

"There's only 9:00 remaining!" Yelled Edward over the intercom.
 
"Okay so I'm assuming they key is in a plce where we'd least think to look. And knowing this type of game...it's going to be something we both fear." Konan whispered to Iris.

"You don't mean...?" Iris mumbled.

"Thats right. It's going to probably hidden in a lit fire." Konan mumbled. The two girls shuddered. and looked up at Edward. The wolf girl and the man in the cloak were also discussing a plan. They didn't seem to want to loose either. Of course with the stakes this high. No one wanted to loose. "Iris. I need you to take out Celebi when we get inside. He specified we couldn't use our powers. Well lets use our pokemons powers. Celebi can warp to places. It will cut down our time if we can warp to places."

"Good idea!" Iris whispered ecstatically back.

"And now, Round two preporations are complete! Preparing transport! Any last words?" The man told the group.

The wolf and cloaked man shook there heads and headed for the teleporter. Those two were probably the best in the game. They looked powerful and had brains. That was the key to winning this game. Strategy.

"Yeah, what do we win?" Konan retorted as the two ran inside the teleporter and were teleporter to the hallway of the house.

"Okay go Celebi." Iris whispered.

"Bii.." The celebi came out of it's pokeball and fluttered next to the two girls. Yawening tiredly it was obvious that Celebi was asleep in it's pokeball.

"Go starly!" Konan whispered and a small starly landed on her shoulder. "Okay starly I need you to look for a key. A KEY, got it?" Konan smiled. The starly knodded and looked up im the tinyest corners.

"Celebi you needa stay with us and warp us when we need it." Iris whispered. Celebi nodded and sat on Iris head. The two began scrounging through the mansions old halls. Each door had some strange combinations to it. They were all unlocked so it was easy to get into each of them. Finding the key was the hard part...

The two girls warped from room to room. And even time travled once to have some time on time on there hands. Until finally they came into the mansions kitched. The kitchen was run down and rats scurried over the floor now an again. And then something amazing happen. Konan spotted a live flame.

"Who lights a flame and isn't cooking anything?" Konan asked iris. Iris shook her head. Well theres a pot on it. Konan peaked inside and saw a key dangling inside the boiling hot water. Konan hissed. "Looks like someones going to have to stick their hand in there.." Konan mumbled. She lifted her hand and placed it in the water. It was surprisingly cold. When she looked down the water was no longer boiling and the flames hand completely frozen over. Konan grabbed the key quickly and ran with Iris outside to the gate that had there pictures placed on it. The two unlocked the door and ran into the teleporter.

They habd exited and were now on the boat. Celebi and Starly back in there pokeballs. Lance, Sharron, Andrew, and Forrest were still inside that hell hole. The wolf girl and he cloaked man had made it out and were standing around idly.

"We made it but...I'm worried about andrew and lance..."
 
Chapter 42: Finding the Bug Spray! Andrew and Forrest Vs. Mercury!

"Man, where could that bug spray be?" Asked Andrew as he opened a drawer... nothing yet, and there was only six minutes left. "Grr... damn."

A voice chuckled from behind. "I think I have what you seek." Said Mercury as he held out the bug spray. "We have already gotten our key, and we don't need this."

"Where's Atton?" Asked Andrew, trying to summon the winds, but failing, due to the fact that the collars were binding his power. Mercury smirked.

"He's taking the key to the safe... He's fine." Said Mercury as Forrest ran into the room. "Oh, it's you." Forrest looked at Mercury before saying.

"Hey, I have never seen you in my life, other then the contest. But you don't scare me!" Forrest ran towards Andrew and said. "We have to defeat this guy fast."

"Why?" Asked Andrew, confused. Forrest pointed to Mercury's hands, which were smoking.

"He can use his powers!" Yelled Forest as Mercury fired two fireballs. Andrew flapped his wings quickly, causing the fireball to soar towards Mercury, and Forrest was able to avoid it.

"Heh, kids... do you think that without your powers, you can match me? Sure, I can use my powers, but they are weakened because of this collar." Said Mercury before shooting another fireball.

Andrew grabbed Forrest and slammed him into the floor, just barely avoiding the attack. "Damn, close range won't work on him." Said Andrew to himself, but Forrest got up and charged at Mercury, who started firing a stream of fire towards the Aipom, but he was able to jump over it, and slam his foot in Mercury's face, knocking him back.

"Gah, damn it... you will pay for that!" Yelled Mercury as he wiped the drop of blood off of his lip. "Inferno!" And with that, the Pyromancer shot a lot of fire into the room, alerting the guard and his dog, but since they were just human, they ran away. "Hahah!" And Mercury shot in, to strike back, but Andrew, who had just found a mop, and ran it under the sink, slammed it into his face.

"Ah!" Exclaimed Mercury as the fire in the room shrunk a little bit. "You aren't bad... but you're still no match for me." And he stood still, but the fire which was starting to surround his body didn't, instead it expanded, coming towards them as the pre-existing fire in the room went out.

"Holy crap!" Yelled Andrew, but Mercury shot forward and punched the falcon in the stomach, adding the fire to the blow, burning him pretty badly.

"Heh, why is Lord Darkrai so afraid of you?" Asked Mercury as he grabbed the mop that was used against him before. "And now, you shall die." But as he swung, Forrest jumped on him, sending him to the ground, and was able to jump away before being cooked alive.

"Well, do you want to know why?" Asked Andrew as his body morphed into his Propero state's. "Well, this is why!" And with that, Andrew shot forwards at great speeds, and slammed into Mercury, sending him through the wall, and into the pool.

"Heh, you're not bad." Said Mercury as he ripped off his collar. "Now, feel my true power!" But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't fire any fireballs. "Grr... this is trouble." Mercury got out of the pool, and was warped away, leaving the Bug Spray behind.

"How much longer do we have?" Asked Andrew as he morphed back into his normal state. He looked at the timer, and there was two minutes left.

"Heh, we need to move." Said Forrest as he ran down the hall, Andrew with the bug spray, right behind him as they quickly made it to the satellite room, used the spray, and grabbed the key.

"COngratulations." Said Edward as a door appeared. "Enter the door to get to the safe." And seeing as there was less then twenty seconds, they wasted no time in taking the door, and placing their key into the lock, teleporting them away.

(Arena)

"Congratulations on all of you who managed to make it!" Exclaimed Edward as he clapped. "Now, the third game is... based off of Resident Evil. It is a survival game. We have placed mutated pokemon, courtesy of Team Enel, into the survival area. You must navigate yourself out of the survival area. You will not have any collars in this round, and the teams are as follows.

Andrew and Lance
Konan and Mercury
Atton and Iris
Sharon and Yohaku
Yuki and Forrest

"Now, have fun, and remember... watch out, for they will be powerful." And as he said that, the warp device turned on.
 
Into the firey maze! Will Konan survive?

Konan and Iris were panting werely. Atton had just made it out and was sittign next to the to girls. Iris was crying heavily. This game was meant to break the anthros down mentally physically and emotionally. They were trying to wear us down and waiting for us to faulter.

"Iris...Don't cry... it's what they want us to do. Stay strong okay?" Konan smiled. The girl sobbed clinging to Atton.

Andrew and his partner had just exited the mansion. Konan breatehd a sigh of relief when Lance joined the group as well. Konan couldn't wait for this game to be over. She had had just about enough of this nonsense.This wasn't a game of skill it was a game of torture. Ceated by Team Enel? Possibly. But they wouldn't think of something as clever as this. No, it had to be someone else. Someone else was pulling the strings.

"No matter. Annoucne the next round already!" Konan yelled. Yuki and Yohaku nodded, they weren't eager but just seemingly impatient.

"This is just a waste of our time." Yuki scowled.

"Indeed." Yohaku agreed with Yuki. These two were actually good partners. The wolf clan were always excellent fighters. And Yohaku Konan couldn't put it in words. He just seemed. Powerful in a scary sense.

The waves smashed against the boat mockingly. The ocean was waiting for one of them to faulter. Waiting to drag them down into its oceany depths. The glistening night sky had tiny stars twinkling in it. Iris had finally stopped sobbing when Attn had gave her hug. Konan was ready. She wouldn't drag anyone down anymore. This was here resolution.

"Congratulations on all of you who managed to make it!" Exclaimed Edward as he clapped. "Now, the third game is... based off of Resident Evil. It is a survival game. We have placed mutated pokemon, courtesy of Team Enel, into the survival area. You must navigate yourself out of the survival area. You will not have any collars in this round, and the teams are as follows.

Andrew and Lance
Konan and Mercury
Atton and Iris
Sharon and Yohaku
Yuki and Forrest"

"E-eh?!" Konan yelped. She was with Mercury. She had to deal with it. But if the game was truly based of resident evil then surely... Yes the games were mind games. They got worse each time. Being crushed, torture, and now being attacked by mutant pokemon. Yes each round was getting more and more dangerous. Or maybe Konan was overanazlyzing the situation.

"You are my partner I'm assuming?" Mercury smiled a fake smile. Knowing Konan couldn't see through his facade like Aetherion could.

"Y-yes. Nice to meet you." Konan whispered. Her ears went down into a submissive state. This was bad very very bad. The Nekos and Leos weren't the best of friends. gado and Lunar Rosa were proof of that however, Atton had always been kind to her. Gado wasn't exactly nice but...

"Be careful. I sense a lot of power in his aurua." Lunar Rosa mumbled.

"Hahaha. What are you? A lucario?" Konan teased. Lunar Rosa glared at her.

"This is no times for jokes!" Lunar Rosa yelled at her subconscious. Konan and Mercury continued to glance at each other.

"I'll destroy her before the night is over. This young neko will cease to exist when I;m through with her." Mercury thought to himself. A small smile of triumph spreading across his face. Little did he know that Konan was an ice weilder something to chill fire. And with Aetherion guarding her, the task wouldn't be easy.

"The time has come are you ready?" Edward announced. Everyone nodded. "Ready....go!" Efdward cried and the anthros ran into the maze. it was going to be tough thats for sure
 
Chapter 43: Round 3: Monsters From Hell!

(Enel Base)

Rei was sitting in his wheelchair, watching his favorite game show... 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire', when one of his guards walked in. "Why are you intruding?" Asked Rei as he glared at the man. "My favorite show is on!"

"Um... s-sir, we have ex-extracted the weapon!" Yelled the man. Rei turned to look at him.

"What did you say?" Asked Rei as tried to wheel himself towards the man. "You finally got the weapon? What of Mewtwo?" The guard was shaking.

"I-it is gone!" Exclaimed the guard. Rei grinned excitedly at the news.

"Heh, excellent... soon, my Devil's Machine will be complete. I shall be invincible. Now, how is that faux game show going?" Asked Rei. "After all, I payed those agents from the Darkrai cult a lot of money, and supplied them with a lot of mutants."

"Um... a-all of th-them made it t-to the last r-round." Said the guard. And with those words, the smile on Rei's face disappeared.

"What did you say?" Asked Rei, glaring at the agent, who cowered. "Graaahhh!" And with that, Rei shot him, killing him. "Damn! I need more time to find the other weapons! With one, the Devil's Machine is more powerful then anything, but I need the other seven to obtain godlike powers!"

"Then why not wait... You have one weapon, and two more will be here." Said Alex as he walked in. "Steal their weapons, and you can kill them easily. They haven't imporved from the last scans, and although there is a far more powerful foe there... the Devil's Machine with only one weapon can kill him." Rei nodded.

"Yes, I shouldn't worry. Now, let's take our first step into godhood!" Said Rei as he was wheeled off by Alex. "Hahahahah! I'm one step closer to becoming god! Now, let's hope that cult doesn't fail me! I put a lot of hard work into the game show!"

(Game Show)

In the survival sector, things were bad... three mutated pokemon were on Lance and Andrew. "Oh... CRAP!" Yelled Andrew as he fired at the pokemon, no effect, as they leapt at them, but Andrew grabbed Lance and flew over it.

"Thanks dude... I thought we were goners." Said Lance as they slowly descended to the ground. "Umm... why are we going down?"

"You're too heavy!" Yelled Andrew as they fell to the ground. The pokemon turned around and saw them.

"Grrrrahhhh!" Roared the Arcanine as it spit out a Flamethrower.

"AAAHH!" Yelled Lance as he took cover behind Andrew, who fired a powerful gust of Wind... no effect, and the two were blasted back by the fire. The Sneasel ran up and tried to devour them, but Lance, as he was flailing, kicked the weasel back.

"Wind Blade!" Yelled Andrew as he fired the powerful gust of wind, killing the Girafarig, and the Sneasel, but the Arcanine was gone. "Lance, we have to move!" But as he finished saying that, a Seaking, which looked like a pile of mush, only identifiable by the cry, and an army of Doduo's with ranging from one to eight heads, Bulbasaur that were inside out, and even a Wingull... but it was normal, and eaten within seconds by a Bulbasaur.

"Oh... shi-" Started Lance, but Andrew transformed into his Propero state and flew him and Lance over the crowd, just barely avoiding being grabbed by the Bulbasaur's vines, and kept flying, to hopefully get out of there. But before they were to get too far, a three-eyed Hitmonlee kicked Andrew, and the two fell out of the sky, before landing onto the wooden shack.

"Oww... Andrew, are you okay?" Asked Lance, but the army of mutants were drawing closer.

(Mercury)

Mercury looked at Konan, thinking. 'I wonder how she'll do... Team Enel wants them dead, so by tonight, all of them will die.' Mercury smiled before saying. "We'd better clear the area before we attract the attention of the mutants." And with that, the Leo started walking away, but as he was walking, little flames were on the ground where his feet were before. But as he was walking away, mutant Spearows surrounded the two, but were burnt alive as Mercury incinerated them all. "Heh, annoying little pests, eh?" But as he said that, more appeared. "Well, this will be a good cool-down exercise."

(Sharon)

Sharon sighed as he walked with Yohaku. "This is all wrong, my Future Sight hasn't been wrong before this game show... But my predictions for last round were correct. Let's just hope this round's predictions will be too." Said Sharon as he looked where a Mutant Rapidash and Electrike were to come from. "Boy, watch that spot... something is there."

(Forrest)

"Hmm... well, this is weird." Said Forrest as he looked around. The two haven't yet been attacked. "This whole show is weird, but I am having a bad feeling about this." Said Forrest, and that is when a whole bunch of mutant Rattata, which looked like they were rotting corpses, surrponded them. "Heh, this shouldn't be too hard."
 
Konans heart punded. Not with anticipation, but with anxiety. She had no idea what to expect. She gulped nervously and looekd at her partner. He had a very smug look on his face as they entered the maze. It was eerly quiet for the moment being. Konan was at a loss for words. When she would think of something to say the words wouldn't form. They would disappear. The two continued to walk in silence. The maze was like a hedge maze, the walls were hedge bushes. And no one could here her scream if he suddenly attacked her, but he wouldn't right? He was part of this whole twisted game just as much as she was. So she was praying to Arceus that he wouldn't suddenly attack her. She didn't know what his element was and he didn't know hers which was good and bad. It was good because Konan had the element of surprise if he attacked, it was bad because she didn't know his element nor how powerful he was. The silence continued until several small 'spearow!' were heard in the distance.

"We'd better clear the area before we attract the attention of the mutants." And with that, the Leo started walking away, but as he was walking, little flames were on the ground where his feet were before.

"So he's a fire element..." Konan thought to herself. She was doing her best not to panic. Her element was ice. Would she match up with him? Most likely not. Lunar Rosa probably could.

"Yes, your probably right." She had a gentle smile on her face trying to diffusion any tension between the two which was failing miserably. The tension merely rose. "So... why are you named after a planet?" Konan asked. Unfortunetly that didn't go so well either. He only shot her a distinct glare which sent shiver down her spine. Silence ones more and Konans spirits fell.

The ''spearows'' had become more distinct and one had come had swept down and scratch her on the cheek. Konan hissed in pain and held her cheek. The cut was stinging this was a mutant spearow, so maybe it had venom in it's claws. And if this was a torture game it wouldn't kill her...Or at least not for now..

Mercury smiled, he had waiting for this moment. He used fire to burn the spearows. And they collapsed to the ground dead. Konan whimpered. his powers was ferocious. He could probably match up with Aetherion if he wanted to. "Heh, annoying little pests, eh?" But as he said that, more appeared. "Well, this will be a good cool-down exercise."
Mercury began using fire to burn them to the crisp. The spearow incinerated one by one and the two trudged on. As the two trudged on they came across another pokemon. A shadowy figure. It was a pokemon. But Konan couldn't place her finger on it. The area around him seemed distorted...

As she went to approach it the figure shot out a mysterious attack at her sending Konan flying against a neighboring bush. The pointed branch gave her several cuts on her arms and face. "What is that thing?" Konan hissed.

~Yohaku~

Yohaku trudged through the forest into the mazes. Sharron trying to keep up desperatly. It was bad enough he had to be stuck with some slowpoke Sableye No, he was put in this stupid game to fight his own creations. Yohaku had been part of this Mutant experment. he had battled one of them. And he knew what was coming at the end of the maze. An artificial mutant but much more powerful then any real mutant.

"This is all wrong, my Future Sight hasn't been wrong before this game show... But my predictions for last round were correct. Let's just hope this round's predictions will be too." Said Sharon as he looked where a Mutant Rapidash and Electrike were to come from. "Boy, watch that spot... something is there."

Yohaku's blood red eyes looked up from his face. He saw the Mutant pokemon that were running torwards him. The rapidash was charging a horn drill and the electriek was using a charge beam. "Feh. You think thats enough to scare me. I was helping create these things." The trick to thesae things is. Yohaku raised his hand and hit the rapidash in the forehead. it collapsed to the ground immedietly and kicked the electrike in the forehead as well. And the electrike fell to it's knees. They both returned to there normal form and lay there still. They weren't dead just unconscious.

"Wow how'd you do that?" Sharron asked Yohaku. Yohaku looked at Sharron.

"It is the secret behind these mutant. Team Enel created these things. I am a member of Team enel. I helped created these things. They placed a chip inside the pokemons head increasing it's power and mutating it's dna. each was placed in the middle of its forehead. If you tap that spot the chip deactivates and the pokemon return to normal." Yohaku stated and continued on through the maze.

"W-wow." Sharron mumbled tryign to keep up with the jackal.

~Yuki~

"Hmm... well, this is weird." Said Forrest as he looked around. The two haven't yet been attacked. "This whole show is weird, but I am having a bad feeling about this." Said Forrest, and that is when a whole bunch of mutant Rattata, which looked like they were rotting corpses, surrponded them. "Heh, this shouldn't be too hard."

Yuki said nothing. She was emotionless. She merely scowled at Forrest and began to attack the rattata one by one.

"Hey! Wait we can't just go on them straight on!" Forrest yelled.

"Do you want to get through this maze or not? They are just a bunch of rattatata there easy kills. Even my poocheyena can take these weaklings out." Yuki scowled and finished off 3 rattata's.

~Atton and Iris~

"Atton I'm scared.." Iris whispered. Atton said nothing. He was rather annoyed with Iris. She had been so clingy. The last thing he wanted to do was be trapped in a maze with her.

"Calm down Iris nothings attacked us so as lnog as we lay low we'll be fine. Besides you have your weapon remember?"

"Oh yeah!" Iris immedietly cheered up and shuddered with anticipation at the tohught of using her weapon. Right on que three beedrill shot out at them. Iris yelled with excitement as Arbor the knuckle of the forest formed in her hand, she began atatcknig them with vines.

~Konan~

"What is that thing?!" Konan yelled. The shadowy pokemon emerged from the shadows. It's magestic stature told her everything. The figure wasn't mutated horrendously. Just mildly disfigured. But the figure was a Lucario. Konan then assumed that the attack shot out at her was a mutated and much strogner version of aurua sphere.

The lucario dashed at mercury with great velocity and aurua sphered him as well. Sending him flying...

"Damn it! The mutants aren't suppose to go after ME!" Mercury yelled.

"You?" Konan hissed. She wasn't expecting that. Sure enough Mercury was with the bad guys but his plan had backfired when the Lucario attacked both of them.

"Our plan was to double team you and kill you!" he yelled as he ran at the Lucario once more. Konan hissed. Even if he was trying to kill her. She had to beat the Lucario one way or another. It was the only way to get out of the maze...

ooc: I know Yohaku knows a little mroe about a Mutant Pokemon then he should but c'mon he's a part of team Enel I think that counts for something. xD
 
(ooc: Actually, I was expecting him to know something about them, he is a part of Team Enel, after all. Mercury and Neptune will come back later on, after Team Enel goes down.)

Chapter 43: The Army of Mutants!

(Mercury)

"You know what? I think it's time to get out of here." Said Mercury, his plan ruined. "Heh, watch out. I won't protect you from this... Inferno!" And with that, fire started to surround him, before spreading out, engulfing the mutant Lucario, destroying it instantly, before the fire went back into him. "Well, that was easy. Now to rid myself of a pesky Neko." And Mercury turned around, and fired the fireball.

But before it could hit her, a man came into the way, and fired an iceball, cancelling it out. "Hello, young neko." Said the man who just jumped in. "I hope this villain didn't hurt you."

"Neptune? What are you doing here? I thought I killed you!" Yelled Mercury, but Neptune shook his head.

"Heh, you're messing with the clan's prophecy, dear brother." Said Neptune as he walked over to Mercury. "It seems that we must leave... or we risk breaking our prophecy." And with that, the two brothers were teleported away... Leaving Konan without a partner... bummer.

(Sharon)

"Hmph, well... we are almost out, and the mutants are pretty far away from us." Said Sharon as he rounded the corner, and saw the exit. "Wait... this is... ! Don't take a step farther! You will regret it if you do!" Sharon then threw a mushroom into the empty space, and it was incinerated by the invisible lightning fence.

"We need to find the key, and if my Future sight is working properly, I know where it is." Said Sharon as he ran in the opposite direction.

(Forrest)

Forrest snorted, he already hated Yuki, but he had to admit, she was a good fighter. But he couldn't be outdone so easily, so he too rushed in, easily avoiding the attacks, and either punching, kicking, or smashing them with his tail, he started fighting them off as well.

"Heh, I don't see what I was worried about, but I know that isn't it." Said Forrest before looking around, there wasn't really anything else there, except a small sparkle from the ground. He picked it up, and it was a key.

"Hey! We need that key!" Yelled Sharon as he turned the corner to see them, blasted the Rattata away with psychic energy, and grabbed the key from Forrest's hand. "Thank you for the contribution!" And with that, Sharon slid into the shadows and ran away.

(ooc: If you didn't know, there is only one exit, that everyone must take... on and change of POV! Andrew)

"Use your weapon!" Yelled Andrew to Lance. "With that we can win!" But Lance was too distracted by the prospect of getting eaten by mutant pokemon. "...Crap. I can't handle this on my own!" But at the last second, before a seven-headed Doduo was to bite the two of them, a gunshot was heard, and it fell.

"Heh, you call for help?" Asked Marcus as he jumped down.

"Marcus!" Yelled Andrew as he got ready to attack. But Marcus just shook his head.

"No, not today... I'm here to save all of your sorry hides!" Said Marcus as he cut off the head of another of the mutants. "Andrew, you defeated me in that form, and you can't beat a bunch of weaklings?" Marcus then fired his gun again before putting it away, and cutting through a bunch of mutants.

Andrew fired a gust of wind, blowing more back, and killing some of the Bulbasaur, but the Doduo were still coming at them... and that is when it went to hell, as out of the ground came... a Giant Gyarados with seven heads. "Holy crap!" Yelled Andrew, and even Marcus was scared.

The Gyarados roared with all of its might and devoured the remaining Mutants in that area before turning to the three anthros. "Roooaaaarrrrrr!" Roared all seven of the heads in unison, its roar echoing throughout the maze.

(Edward)

"Uh oh." Said Edward, scared that there was such a beast there. "I didn't order that thing!"
 
Konan whimpered looking at the Lucario, it was obviousit had the malicioud intent to kill. As it charged at Mercury she closed her eyes and horror only to be amazed at the power of his flames once more.

"You know what? I think it's time to get out of here." Said Mercury, his plan ruined. "Heh, watch out. I won't protect you from this... Inferno!" And with that, fire started to surround him, before spreading out, engulfing the mutant Lucario, destroying it instantly, before the fire went back into him. "Well, that was easy. Now to rid myself of a pesky Neko." Mercury scoffed and Konan looked at horror at him. She backed against a bush and screamed.

"KYAAAAAAAH!" She screamed as she watched Mercury through a Inferno Fireball at her. the fireball was huge it was going to incinerate her if it touched her. She was to frightened to dodge out of the way. She closed her eyes and waited for the impending incineration. It never came. "H-huh?" Konan looked at the man standing in front of her. He had shot an iceball at Mercury to negate the fireball.

"Hello, young neko." Said the man who just jumped in. "I hope this villain didn't hurt you."

"Neptune? What are you doing here? I thought I killed you!" Yelled Mercury, but Neptune shook his head.

"Heh, you're messing with the clan's prophecy, dear brother." Said Neptune as he walked over to Mercury. "It seems that we must leave... or we risk breaking our prophecy." And with that, the two brothers were teleported away... Leaving Konan without a partner... bummer. Konan thought it was a huge relief however.

"So I have to find a key..." Konan mumbled getting up off the ground and and brushed herself off and walking further into the maze. She walked on and on through the maze. It seemed like hours before she got anymore when in fact it had only been a few minutes. The only thing that trapped Konan out of her bored mind was tripping over something sparkly. Konan whimpered in pain but then looked at the thing she had tripped over. it was a key!

"Yes, I got it!" Konan yelled grabbing the key and heading back into the maze to find the exit.

~Yohaku~

"Hmph, well... we are almost out, and the mutants are pretty far away from us." Said Sharon as he rounded the corner, and saw the exit. "Wait... this is... ! Don't take a step farther! You will regret it if you do!" Sharon then threw a mushroom into the empty space, and it was incinerated by the invisible lightning fence.

"We need to find the key, and if my Future sight is working properly, I know where it is." Said Sharon as he ran in the opposite direction. Yohaku scoffed. And followed Sharron.

"You rely on your powers to much. You know that right?" Yohaku taunted Sharron just trying to piss Sharron off. Knowing full well that he had the strength to defeat Sharron if the time comes.

"What if the key is NOT there? What then?" Yohaku yelled.

~Yuki~

"Heh, I don't see what I was worried about, but I know that isn't it." Said Forrest before looking around, there wasn't really anything else there, except a small sparkle from the ground. He picked it up, and it was a key.

"Hey! We need that key!" Yelled Sharon as he turned the corner to see them, blasted the Rattata away with psychic energy, and grabbed the key from Forrest's hand. "Thank you for the contribution!" And with that, Sharon slid into the shadows and ran away.

Yuki scoffed. "Feh, such a useless game. This is unessary oponets. They are fools." Yuki scoffed.

"Hey you come back!" Forrest yelled running deeper into the maze. Leaving Yuki to herself. Yuki scowled angerly and went in opposite direction.

"Guess I have to get another key. Feh." Yuki scoffed.
 
(ooc: Yep, I'm bringing in a minor character, actually, he'll be important for the Orbital Leo Tribe subplot. He's a Gym Leader, and one of my favorite characters, and is the poor soul that is the victim of the fact that his only fanfiction life will be filled with either badfics, or Yaoi. Yes, I am talk- typing about Volkner. He won't be in until after the Team Enel subplot, so... yeah. Enjoy Chapter 44 Third Draft. My first draft was perfect, but I accidentally got offline. T.T I am sorry if I made them OOC, but one, I really don't care much for Flint, and two, I love that refrence.)

Chapter 44: A New Character, Also...: Sharon Vs. Forrest

(?)

You see a man watching TV, staring at what was going on in the show. "Hmm... so it begins, eh? And just when I got excitement back into my career." Said the man as he grabbed his jacket and put it on, along with his belt, which had his whole team on it. "But maybe... this is for the best." And with that, the man walked out of his house, only to be interrupted by a man with a red fro.

"Hey, Volkner. I was sent down here to tell you that your gym is not allowed to be renovated until we clear up the bills." Said Flint as he walked around to face Volkner.

"What bills?" Asked Volkner, somewhat confused on what Flint was talking about.

"The bills we recieved from the power plants on the entire eastern half of Sinnoh you pawned onto us." Said Flint.

"What did I do that was so bad last time?" Asked Volkner, causing Flint to stare at the Lightning Gym Leader.

"You blacked out this entire city, and caused power surges in Veilstone and Pastoria, lasting weeks until we were able to get it running again, then you pawn the bill off to the Elite 4! We don't make as much as you think we do." Said Flint, but at that point, Volkner was gone. "Well... he wasted no time in leaving." A second later, a trainer walked up to him and kicked him in the shin. "Ow! Why'd you do that?"

"Um... there was a note on your back, it says 'Kick me, I'm an idiot.'" Said the trainer as Flint grabbed the note, and turned it over.

"Dear Flint, I have to go, and you're bogging me down with useless details, so while you were talking about things I already knew, I wrote this, went back into my house, watched a bit of TV, and found the tape I thought I lost a few months back. You really talk slow, you know that? Anyway, I'm off to Kanto, somewhere... you won't see me again for a while, if at all. Oh, one last thing, I don't like you like that! I know that's why you came down. I kept telling you for years, but I really don't like you like that! Hopefully that got into your thick skull, and I'll be back in a few weeks/months... hopefully. Sincerely, Volkner." Read off Flint. "Well, that's rude. I don't talk that long, do I?" But when he looked back towards the trainer, he was gone, and the sun was setting. "What? But it was mid-afternoon when I got here... Oh, no! I told the cabbie to leave the meter running! I must hurry! I must save the rest of my money!"

(Volkner)

And at this point, Volkner was long out of Sunnyshore's waters, and out in international waters. "Heh, sorry man. But I have to help those kids."

"Next and only stop, Olivine City!" Yelled the Captain to Volkner, who simply nodded. "Estimated time to Olivine, 36 Hours!"

(Team Enel)

"And this man is the one I want you to keep away from Kanto." Said Rei to his Knights, who were sitting around him. "He is only a human, like myself, but he will be trouble." And that is when an elderly woman raised her hand. "Yes, Kanna?"

"Why should we look out for him? He isn't of any Anthro tribe. He's just a human trainer, and while he may be good, he can't beat us... no one can since we got one of the weapons." Said Kanna, but Rei just glared at her.

"He is a threat... He has been touched by the Goddess herself! Like I was, like Yohaku was, like those heroes were, like that hunter was, and like Sharon was! They all have a role to play, and a fate to fufill. But I am rebelling against my role! I will destroy the Goddess of Happiness, along with all of the pokemon! She's just as much to blame as those creatures are!" Yelled Rei, scaring Kanna. "We know the heroes roles, they are to aquire the eight weapons. But others aren't clearly defined. Like Volkner's, Sharon's, and even my own." Rei glared at the other Knights, and Lord.

"I-it was just a q-question." Replied Kanna, afraid of her child lord. "I am sorry, my Grand Lord." But Rei just waved her off.

"No, I overreacted." Said Rei before turning back to his Knights and Lord. "Elisa is missing?" Samuel stepped forward and said.

"Yes, she'll be back soon. She got wounded by Rosa." Rei grinned.

"So they are growing at the projected rate?" Asked Rei. Samuel nodded, causing Rei to smirk. "Excellent, and if they continue to do so, then we will easily win... As soon as she gets back, remove the restrictor... she won't need it anymore." Samuel nodded before bowing.

"Yes, Grand Lord Rei. We shall do so... but what of Yohaku?" Rei thought for a second.

"Contact him at 2400 hours (Midnight) and ask him of what he wants to do." Said Rei before backing up. "Together, with our new power... We shall create a new world! One that benefits humanity everywhere! Long live Enel!"

"Long live Enel!" Yelled the Knights, but Alex was just sitting there, not really paying attention, seeing as he was informed earlier.

"Soon, we shall rule the world." Said Rei before being wheeled back to his room by Alex.

(Sharon)

'I know I am to be struck down soon... All the goddess wishes of me is to die against Mercury? ...I am not one to argue, it's my time... oh well... It was meant to happen sooner or later.' Thought Sharon as he saw Forrest behind him. "Do not follow me!" He yelled back before blasting a Shadow Ball... no effect, as it was a ghost type move, and Forrest was a normal type. "Grr... " 'This was meant to happen, just as I saw.'

(ooc: The Mutant Gyarados Hydra will take place next chapter, as I want to get it all in one, along with Volkner's segment... I will be posting something short each chapter with Volkner, and where he is. Just because I like him... and because there needs to be at least a couple of Pokemon mentions other then random pokemon we have to fight.)
