Volume 2, Chapter3: Part I:

Max yawned as he was making his way to Celadon. He stopped in his tracks as he came to the entrance of the city. It was desolate. Not many people were walking around. And it was covered with vines.

Max gulped and rushed through the town, towards the gym to get this part of the mission over with. He arrived inside and fond Erika looking as if she was fused to the vines on the roof.

"I know why you are here. Go, Vileplume!" Erika shouted.

Max leapt back and threw Growlithe's Pokeball in to the air. In two blinding white flashes Growlithe appeared along with a giant flower Pokemon. Max swiftly took out his Pokedex and scanned it.
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

Species: Vileplume, the flower Pokemon.
Entry: Its petals are the largest in the world. As it walks, it scatters extremely allergenic pollen.

Max closed his Pokedex and slipped it in to his Pocket. He cracked his neck and then shouted "Growlithe use Ember!"

"Use Mega Drain." Erika said. Her voice was so sweet. It sounded totally innocent. Max could barely stand having to kill her. Why? Why did Beo hate her so much? She was purely beautiful!

Growlithe leapt in to the air and shot out a ton of smoldering hot black embers. The embers soared through the air in the vine infested gym and then caught on fire. They skimmed a vine and accidentally set it on fire. Then they all hit Vileplume, sending her stummbling back a few feet.

Vileplume regained her balance and then shot out a huge ball of green energy. Growlithe and Max both had no clue as to what it was, so they decided to not take their chances. Growlithe jumped out of the way, and dodged the attack. Then it ricocheted back and Growlithe ducked just in time to dodge it again. Then, it returned to Vileplume.

"Phew! Growlithe use Ember once more! Then Bite!" Max shouted.

"Use Aromatherapy." Erika once again calmly said.

Growlithe leapt in to the air again and shot out ten smoldering hot, black embers. They soared through the air and lit on fire. Then, they slammed in to Vileplume, but only like six of them did...the other four hissed past her. Growlithe landed while she was trying to shake off a smal fire that had started on her flower.

He bared his teeth and dashed off towards Vileplume. Vileplume regained her focus when she got the fire out, but was then bit by Growlithe, and knocked over on to her back. Growlithe stayed with his teeth in VIleplume, which was a big mistake.

A green essance from Vileplume's flower started coming towards Growlithe. It hit and he was damaged, buit it didn't send him flying off or anything, and Vileplume regained some of her health.

"Growlithe get out of there by covering yourself up with Ember!" Max shouted.

"Use Stunspore before it can get away." Erika purred.

Growlithe leapt in to the air and shot out fourteen smoldering hot, black embers this time, and didn't stay to watch. He turned around and tried running away, but Vileplume shot out a blast of yellow powder before being hit by the embers.

The powder hit Growlithe,a dn he inhaled some, paralyzing him. Max gasped quietly wondering what to do. He then noticed that Vileplume was very tired fomr all the fire that had hit her, and knew he could do something.

"Growlithe turn around and use Ember, but keep shooting them no matter what!" Max shouted.

Growlithe slowly turned around to face Vileplume. Then he opened his mouth and one after another he started to shoot embers. One hit, no two, no three, they just kept coming like raindrops. Every single one hit Vileplume, and she eventually fell to the ground, unconcious. Growlithe stopped shooting flames and Max returned him so he would lose his paralysis and get some rest.

"Oh well. Go, Victreebell." Erika dropped a Pokeball from her hand and in a blinding white flash, a huge bell like Pokemon with leaves for arms popped out. Max took out his Pokedex and scanned it.

[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

Species: Vitreebel, the flycatcher Pokemon.
Entry: It pools in its mouth a fluid with a honeylike scent, which is really an acid that dissolves anything.

Max slipped his Pokedex in to his pocket and thought about which Pokemon to use. Not Totodile, Growlithe, or Trapinch because that honeyscented acid would draw them in...and besides, Trapinch was majorly weak to grass types. He could either use Sableye or Gastly then...but which one?

END
Rest of battle will be in next post!
 
Misty looks like an old lady?

"Damn....this is where me and Max had our first mission..it feels like it was forever ago but it really wasn't..." Grecko said to himself as he stared at the rubble from the pokemon center. As he continued to look around, Grecko noticed more and more crashed buildings and the only one that was standing was the gym. "Well I guess I should be heading there..." Grecko said to himself as ran over to the gym that was sunken down into a pit of water.

"How the hell am I supposed to get in there?" Grecko said as he looked around the underwater building for options. "Hmmm" Grecko said as he noticed an open window that was half way above the water. "Guess i'll give it a shot!" he yelled as he ran forward and dove into the water.

After swimming for about five minutes Grecko finaly reached the Window and swam in. To his suprise the room he had entered only had an inch of water and their was an old looking woman in the room. "So you've finaly come..." the woman says. "Misty?' Grecko asked confused.

"That's right it is I Misty, the one who used to be known as a mermaid....but now I am nothing but an old hag thanks to you Brotherhood scum." She said as she continued to stare at the wall. Grecko listened to what she said and knew it was true. He remembered stories of how she was one of the most beautiful people in the world and would win her battles by captivating the challenger with her beauty.

"So Grecko Rage...are you here to kill me?" she asked the boy. "Uhhhhh...how do you know my name!" Grecko asked as he was taken aback by her statment. "Professor Oak has told everyone about you, Maximillion Tangeku, and the other child whose name is unknown to us. I suspected you would be back to Cerulean once Beo put his final plan into action.

"You know Beo's plan?" Grecko asked her. "It's not that complicated...just shrouding the world in darkness by taking out all who stand for light!" Misty than hollered back. "Do you know where Sly is?" Grecko asked her. "Yes, but sadly you will never meet her! Come on out Gyarados!" Misty yells as she tosses out a pokemon.

"GYYYRAAAAAA!" the huge giant water pokemon yells as it burst out of the pokeball. "Ahhhhh!" Grecko yells as he runs back to the opposite side of the room. The Gyarados busts through the floor there standing on causing a whole to open up below them. The Gyarados falls into the body of water below them and prepares for battle.

"Now the stage is set...lets do this boy!" Misty speaks. "Grrr come on out Glameow!" Grecko yells as he tosses the pokeball of Glameow out next to him. "MOWWW" the pokemon yells as it comes out of the dark ball. "Alright so this is the first time im using Glameow since I caught it but...i'll do the best I can." Grecko said to himself as Glameow stood beside him.

"Gyarados use dragon rage!" Misty commanded her pokemon. "Glameow dodge it with fake out!" Grecko ordered.

"Mowwwow!" the cat pokemon said as the dragon type attack burst through the floor at it. The attack missed and Glameow slammed into the side of Gyarados. "Gyyyyyyyyyyy" the pokemon yelled as it took the hit and slightly moved to the side. "Now Gyarados hit it with a water gun!" Misty yelled.

"GYARA" the dragon pokemon yelled as it fired a huge water attack at the Glameow who was running its way back up the wall towards Grecko. "Glameow look out!" Grecko yelled as the water gun slammed into the wall and Glameow.

"MOOOOWWWW!!!!" the Glameow yelled as it lost it's balance and tumbled into the water below. "Now Gyarados use Thrash!" Misty barked to her Gyarados. "No! Glameow use hypnosis!" Grekco tried to say to his pokemon who was still under water.

"GYARARARA!" the Gyarados began yelling as it thrashed back and forth and in the water causing huge waves. "mowwww..." the Glameow yelled as it slammed into the walls by the waves. "Mooow!" it yelled as it fired off one final try at hypnosis.

"Glameow no!" Grecko yelled as he watched Glameow fall unconcious and slip slowly under the water. "Return Glameow!" Grecko said as he quickly returned it to it's ball. "Hahaah see boy...darkness doesn't always prevail." Misty spoke to Grecko. "I wouldn't be so sure!" Grecko yelled as he pointed at the sleeping Gyarados. "Now let's go Luxio!" Grecko yelled as he tossed out his newly acquired pokemon.

"AHHH Gyarados no!" Misty hollered as she stared at her sleeping pokemon. "Luxio Spark!" Grecko commanded his pokemon. "LUXXXXX!" the electric pokemon yelled as it sent a huge electric attack sailing down at Gyarados. "GYAYAYA!" the pokemon yelled as it woke up and than fell unconcious.

"Gyarados return! Let's go Poliwrath!" Misty yelled as she returned one pokemon from the water pit and summoned another one to it. "This isn't over Grecko!" she said to the boy.

"Poliwrath use Bubblebeam!" she ordered. The bubbles began to speadily climb towards Grecko and Luxio. "Luxio use Charge and dodge!" Grecko ordered. "LUX" the pokemon said as it began charging up it's electric attacks and than quickly dodged the bubblebeam attack. "Now Luxio jump down towards Poliwrath and use Spark!" Grecko commanded.

The Luxio than jumped down towards the Poliwrath in the water pit below. "Poliwrath use submission!" Misty said to her pokemon. "POLI!" the pokemon yelled as it jumped up out of the water towards Luxio. "NOW!" both trainers yelled to their pokemon. "LUXXXXXXXX!" "POOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLIIII!" the two pokemon yelled as Luxio sent out the gigantic electric strike and as Poliwrath flew through it and slammed Luxio into the wall.

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM" was the sound made after both attacks were completed. "Polliii.." "Luuu..." both pokemon said as they drifted off the walls and fell into the water below. "Return!" the two trainers said as they returned their pokemon. "Grrrr I will not let you win Scum!" Misty yelled at Grecko. "Yaa well I won't let you win so what are we gonna do here!" Grecko said in a manical manner as shadows began to climb up his legs.

"The darkness has already got grasps of you I see!" Misty yelled as she saw what was happening to Grecko. "Ya but it's not so bad...I kind of like it!" Grecko yelled back. The two began to argue back and forth and did not notice what was happening below.

The water was whipping around out of control from the previous bunch of powerful attacks and the walls were starting to collapse from Poliwraths strong Submission attack. "HUH?" Grecko yelled as the floor below him collapsed and he plummeted into the water.

"Haha I guess it is over! What??!" Misty yelled as her side collapsed to and she also was sent plummeting down to the water. "Come on out Starmie!" she yelled panicking as she sent out Starmie and climbed on it's back. "Fwooo that was close!" Misty said as she swam around on Starmie dodging the falling debris.

"Wartortle!" Grekco yelled from under the water as he sent out his water pokemon. "Well I guess the boy drown?" Misty said to Starmie as she saw no signs of Grecko anywhere. "WARRTTTTTTT" Grecko's evolved water pokemon yelled as it burst through the waves with Grecko on it's back.

"Please Misty the darkness wouldn't let me die like that! Now let's finish this!" Grecko yelled as him and Wartortle were still in the air. Meanwhile the building was begining to collapse all around them....
 
PikaLover10 and Tim0789: Go ahead and post the second part to your battles I wil grade and level your pokemon once there fully over.
 
As both trainers made there way to the gym Gage began thinking about which Pokemon he was going to use against the electric trainer. Angel was out of the question... She would be completely defeated in no time due to her type disadvantage. The most obvious choice would normally be Brick because of his type match up but Gage decided if it came down to it he was going to use Spoons.

He turned his head to the right and noticed Angela had a look of determination on her face. He looked down for a second and sighed. Angela stared at him " Whats wrong?" she asked. " I don't know if we can do this Angela... I've seen him battle.. He's a relentless battler and on top of that..... I don't know if I will be able to battle him without my emotions getting in the way... He sort of taught me a lot about battling...." He laughed nervously, " I guess it really doesn't matter how nice he was to me.... If he's with the Dark Brotherhood then we need to put a stop to him..." Angela went to open her mouth but quickly closed it not quite sure what to say.

After a few more seconds of awkward travel the two had arrived at the entrance to the gigantic building. The two trainers looked at eachother and nodded ready for whatever challenge awaited them in the gym. Together they slipped into the gym through the doors both of them looking around at the mechanical marvels that decorated the room. The two continued walking in staring at all the cogs and gears clicking around them. In the far back of the room there was an odd entryway into a second much smaller room with a desk and a map covered in X's in the back. From the corner of the smaller room came a familiar voice that echoed through the gym resonating off the walls. "Ha aha so you think your going to take this gym from me and the Dark Brotherhood you can try"

"You bet we are!" Angela yelled running towards the small room. Gage tried to warn her but it was too late, a metallic door shot up from the ground blocking the room from sight. " Dammit!" Gage yelled in frustration. He knew the only way he was going to get through the door was by finding the right switches, but where were they? Gage noticed all the short pillars around the room each with a button on top. He ran up and pressed the first button he saw hearing an audible click. He had found the first switch! he ran up to an adjacent button slamming down on it with his fist and instead of a click he received a painful electrocution.

He pulled himself up from the ground and said, " Oww Dammit! What the hell?! When did he get that?!" From behind the door he could hear the muffled yells of Pokemon and a conversation going on between Surge and Angela, hopefully she was holding up fine without his help. He continued slamming down on the buttons but luck wasn't on his side. He continuously received one shock after the other until eventually he couldn't even hold himself up anymore. His legs gave out underneath him and he slumped to the ground.

It took him a few more seconds but he managed to pull himself to his feet. From behind the door Gage could hear Surge give a loud command to one of his Pokemon and he heard Angela as well as several of her Pokemon scream out in pain. The power went out in the gym and Gages heart began beating heavily as the gears slowed around him. He rushed as quickly as possible to the electric doorway prying it open and pulling himself in before the backup generator kicked in and the lights turned on.

In the corner of the room Gage noticed Angela's unconscious body in the corner surrounded by her Pokemon, her clothing was badly burned and Gage concluded she must've been hit with a stray attack. Gage heard a familiar voice that called him to attention. " Gage m'boy is that you?" the smiling lieutenant said. Gage stared at him, rage flaring in his eyes. " What the hell is wrong with you Surge? Have you lost all your honor? Striking a human, especially a teenage girl, with and attack like that?"

"Now Gage, don't be unfair, you know i was just doing my duty!"he said frowning slightly. Gage sighed and looked at Surge and his Electabuzz. " Well then Surge.. I guess that means I'm going to have to do my duty as well.. Go Spoons, use your Shadowball attack!" The golden Pokemon shot out of the ball and shot a dark purple orb toward Electabuzz, the battle had begun...

"Electabuzz, use light screen!" The yellow furred Pokemon created a wall of electricity that deflected the ball away into a wall. " Now follow it up with your Quick Attack!" The Electabuzz became a blur and slammed into Spoons knocking him to the ground. Gage was clearly outmatched and he knew it. " Spoons, stand up and use your shadow ball!" The psychic type launched a dark orb towards the direction of Electabuzz and as expected Surge yelled, "Use your Light Screen!" Gage smiled, he had fallen right into his trap. " Spoons, use your disable attack!" The light screen faltered and was ocompletely shattered by the shadowball which sent the Electabuzz flying.

Surge clenched his teeth, " Good shot boy, but you wont get that lucky twice! Electabuzz, use Shockwave!" The Electabuzz nodded and spread his palms open releasing a wall of Electricity that flew towards Gage and Spoons sending shocks reverberating through both Spoons and Gage's body and their legs gave out. " Before Gage could even get back up to his feet he uttered a second command to his pokemon, "Spoons! Use confusion!" Spoons lifted his hands up and a purple aura surrounded the slightly exhausted Electabuzz. The Electabuzz was thrown back into a wall repeatedly slamming it against the walls of the gym. Spoons feeling satisfied with the damage he had done eventually released his grip on the electric Pokemon and watched him slump to the ground.

The Electabuzz refused to go down. It almost immediately pulled itself to its feet and took a command from his trainer. "Electabuzz! Use your Shockwave again and don't hold back!" The Electabuzz's full body began charging with violent electric energy which was released through his palms towards Gage and his Pokemon. " Quickly Spoons! Use your teleport!" Both Spoons and Gage were teleported behind the wave of electricity and behind the Electabuzz himself. " Spoons! Use your Shadow Ball attack!" Electabuzz could only slightly turn his head before he was knocked to the floor unconscious from the powerful blast. Surges face was filled with rage. " You little brat! I taught you how to battle! I let you live next to my gym! I kept Beo from killing you when we first took this town over and this is how you repay me?! I'll get you back for this kid, you'll regret it!" A gigantic surge of electricity Blew through the gym partially blinding Gage.

When Gage's sight became clear he looked around and Surge was no where to be seen, he had disappeared as well as his Pokemon and in there place were two badges. Gage took Angela's pokeballs out of her pockets and returned her Pokemon and then he picked up her limp body and carried her out of the gym. He walked back through his home carrying Angela's limp body in his hands and he opened the front door to his house. Inside he was greeted by a familiar old face. " Grandpa?"

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


After laying Angela down on his bed and placing her pokeballs on his nightstand Gage went downstairs and he caught up with each other. They exchanged stories from their adventures and eventualy Gage's grandfather got to the subject of Angela. " So... What's the deal with the girl you horndog you!" Gage blushed and quickly responded, "She's just a companion...." His grandfather laughed at his grandsons reaction. "Oh come on Gage, don't lie to your grandfather. I might be old but I'm not a moron, you have a little crush on that young lady don't you? I mean if you do I couldn't blame you, especially fi your anything like me or your father was at your age!" Gage sighed and relaxed a bit knowing it doesn't matter what he tells his grandfather. " Well grandpa... I don't know... She's pretty and shes a good battler and... she's funny... And sometimes a little scary...." Gages grandfather looked a little overly excited "MHM MHM?" He awaited an answer. ".. And I guess I like her... A lot.."

From the doorway to the hallway came a loud smash and Angela was standing in the doorway her face completely red. How long had she been standing there?!!! Gage thought worried. Gage's grandfather spoke for him. "Well good morning young lady, I hope the bed was comfertable." Angela looked around a bit at the well light house. " Yes it was very nice thank you." She gave a curteous bow. "Don't thank me young miss, it was Gage her who carried you oput of the gym and made sure you were safe above all else." His grandfather pointed to him and smiled beneath his white beard. "Well... Thank you very much Gage.." She said.

Gage's grandfather, noticing the tension, stood up and said, "Well I have certain club buisness to attend too so if you don't mind I really should have my leave!" He pulled a small stone from his pocket and held it out to Angela. "From what I hear you have a Pikachu, this could come in handy someday." He smiled and walked out of the house mounting his Fearow. "You be good Gage and keep fighting the good fight!" he said as his pokemon took off.

"I really don't know what he means by Pokemon Club buisness, we haven't had a member walk through the club doors in years..." Gage said to Angela. She gave a small laugh. "Oh yeah here you go by the way." Gage threw her one of the badges which she caught gracefully. She stared at te badge for a few second and then said, "We should really call Sly now..." Gage picked up the house phone and began dailing the number. When Slys voice answered with a hello Gage said, "We've taken down Surge, come by to claim the gym."

As soon as Shaun entered the city, the most gut wrenching smell met his nose. The smell was a mixture of sewage, rotten everything and even the stench of death. Before he could take another step closer to anything, which just happened to be the gym, a blast of purple goo shot towards him. Jumping to the left, Shaun couldn't help but shiver as the horrid smell became worse. The attacker soon revealed itself to be a giant purple moth.
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

"So, Dark scum has made their way here, have they?" a new voice drawled. From out of the shadows stepped Koga, master of poison and of the ninja arts. He stared at Shaun coolly. "Venomoth, begin," he commanded.

"Veno," Venomoth said in a monotone voice, its eyes glowing with power as it attacked Ivysaur.

"Sar..." Ivysaur grunted as it shut its eyes in pain from the Confusion.

"Ivysaur, use Leech Seed," Shaun snapped. Eyes widening, a large, bulku seed shot out of Ivysaur's enclosed flower where it landed on Venomoth. The thick vines covered Venomoth and sucked out its energy, causing the great moth to wince in pain and Ivysaur to let out a sigh of relief as energy made its way back to him.

"Smart," Koga approved. "Using the special feature's of your Ivysaur to your advantage." He smiled thinly. "A fine poison type," he allowed.

Shaun gave a small nod. "And your Venomoth is strong as well," he said, careful to let nothing show in his voice. He turned his attention back to Ivysaur. "Razor Leaf!" he barked.

"Stop the leaves with Confusion," Koga ordered with closed eyes, not even needing to watch

"Vnomo," Venomoth replied, its eyes glowing once more as it stopped the spinning sharp leaves to stop in their tracks for a moment before allowing them to drop harmlessly on the ground. After a single nod from its trainer, it lunged, moth wide. "Moooth!" it cried, showing the first sign of emotion since the battle started.

Both Ivysaur and Shaun blanched as the speedy pokemon all but disappeared in scream. The two searched the area wildly, but it wasn't until Ivysaur let out a lout bark of pain did Shaun know where the giant moth was. Venomoth was latched onto Ivysaur's bulb and was currently sucking its life away with Leech Life.

"Get it away with Poison Powder!" Shaun said hurriedly, not wanting to miss this chance to not only seed it, but poison it to give it twice the damage even if he misses in attack.

"Ivyy!" Ivysaur roared, angry at the large pokemon on his bulb. Usually, a Poison Powder simply spreads around, but in Ivysaur's pissed off condition, it actually shot up and slammed right into Venomoth.

"Now use Razor Leaf!" Shaun demanded.

"Venomoth, avoid tactics seven," Koga demanded.

Shaun scowled at the strange code. While that was interesting, it meant he had no idea what to expect. Venomoth, though, did. With a large flap of its wings, it continually used its incredible speed to randomly diappear and reappear at another angle of how the leaves were being shot. "Ivy!" Ivysaur snarled as it kept turning its large bulb towards Venomoth.

"Ven ven ven," Venomoth chuckled softly, which only furthered Ivysaur's rage even more. The sharp leaves picked up in speed and numbers, but Venomoth, a higher trained pokemon, dodged it all easily, even as it winced and coughed as both the poison and seed sapped it of its strength.

"Venomoth, let's pick up the power a bit," Koga said simply, causing Shaun to narrow his eyes. "Psybeam," he ordered as he folded his arms behind his back.

"Shoot another Poison Powder to hit the Psybeam," Shaun snapped, causing Koga's head to turn interestedly at him.

"Sauur!" Ivysaur snarled as it lowered its head to get a better aim with its bulb. Concentrating, it shot the blast of purple powder that sparkled and glittered in the sunlight.

"Cease fire!" Koga snarled, but it was too late. Venomoth had already powered up its attack and fired away. The multicolored beam hit the poison attack. As the clash of colors met, creating several mirror like directions within the cloud of poison gases, the Psybeam burst into several beams, all much smaller than the original attack, and much less powerful, but it made things a whole lot harder.

"Venoo!" Venomoth cried as it tried to dodge the attacks that shot back at it. It managed to avoid two, but with its large body, one finally managed to hit and bring it down.

"Saurr!" Ivysaur roared, the attack super effect on it. It had no chance of dodging the two beams that headed towards. The grass/poison combo pokemon lay on its stomach, clawed feet digging into the ground as it tried, unsuccessfully, to get back to its feet. Its harsh breathing blew up sludge and dirt that was on the ground, but this didn't bother the pokemon. It was too busy glaring at the fallen moth that was also trying to get back up. "Saa," Ivysaur said with a hurt grunt as it used the last of its strength. From its closed bulb, no more than three sharp leaves escaped from it, but they hit nonethless, and with each hit...one...two...three! Venomoth went down. It wasn't the leaves that did it, much to Ivysaur's irritation, but the poison and seed.

Koga watched his pokemon fall to the ground, his eyes emotionless. "Impressive," he said at last as he recalled his pokemon. "But still not powerful... Will you kill me when you defeat my last pokemon?" Koga asked with a thin smile. Shaun said nothing. Instead, he just recalled his Ivysaur and nodded to the Gible that was standing quietly by his side the whole time. Koga nodded as well, but not to gesture to a hidden pokemon. It was a knowing nod. "Let's go, my friend," he said with much force as he released his last pokemon...
 
Wolfwhispers: Great first post! You pretty much nailed Kogas attitude.. Anyway i'll raise your pokemon levels and everything after your final post!
 
As soon as Koga released his pokemon, dark gases surrounded the area. The pokemon itself was a purple mass of heads and gas. It gave a billowing cough, but to Shaun, it seemed that it was the way it simply breathed. "Weezing."
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

"Weezing, Poison Gas," Koga commanded as he closed his eyes in consideration while stepping back a bit. Perhaps it was to get away from the attack, but since Koga lived in the poisonious place for so long, Shaun didn't think that was it.

"Gilble, Dragon Rage," Shaun barked.

"Gii," Gible said in understanding. Taking a deep breath, which really wasn't that great of an idea as the opposing attack was a gassy substance, Gible fired the blue and purple draconic fire. The raging inferno blasted through the gas haze and slammed into Weezing, creating a wall of fire that burned away at the poison type.

"Weeez!" Weezing hacked as it floated away, letting out more smoke in irritation.

"Gi!" Gible said happily, pleased that its attack hit, before scrunching up its face in pain and coughing. It's body turned a slight purple for a moment, clearly telling all that looked at it that it was poisoned. "Gii..."

Shaun sighed in irritation before barking out his next orders. "Another Dragon Rage!"

"Dodge and use Sludge," Koga said clearly, form shifting every now and then to a different spot, and that was when Shaun knew what was going on. Koga was not just looking for areas to attack, but areas to flee to if neccessary.

"Gible, Taackle!" Shaun cried, hands becoming a fist as his pokemon wracked up more coughs.

"Gii gi," Gible said softly as it wiped its mouth after its status problem proved to be an issue. Turning away from its trainer, Gible ran forward, shark head bent forward, only to cry out as it, quite literally, ran straight into the Sludge attack. "Giiii!" Gible cried as it slid around, the gooey substance acting like acid on its skin.

"Gible, return," Shaun said with annoyance. As soon as the dragon type returned, he turrned his gaze on the floating ball of pollution before grinning under his mask. "Go, Skarmory!"

With a loud battle cry that echoed throughout the abandoned city, the metallic bird landed on the ground, beak poised and wings at the ready. "Skar."

"Impressive," Koga admitted, eyes going over the green feathers of Skarmory. "A shiny..." And here he smiled. "And a steel type; very smart, but we do have one attack for this. Double Hit!"

"Wezzign Weez," Weezing cried with a hoarse voice, its gas filled body shooting towards Skarmory quickly.

"Use Peck," Shaun commanded coolly, his eyes watching Koga out of the coner of his line of vision. The man seemed at peace, almost as if he were having a normal battle in normal conditions. His calm attitude didn't grate on his nerves, much to Shaun's surprise, but did in fact give him points in his book.

"Skarrr!" Skarmory screech as it pumped its large and sharp wings, easily gaining altitude. Despite what many people thought, Skarmory wings were very light, thus allowing them to fly at incredibly fast speeds that were well over a hundred miles per hour. "Mar! Mar! Mar!" Skarmory cried each time as its sharp beak stabbed and poked Weezing, creating more holes that released poison gas. Skarmory paid them no mind as he was immuned to poison.

"Weezing wee," Weezing hacked as the last attack finnaly hit. Then, before Skarmory could pull back, Weezing lunged, using its whole body to slam into Skarmory once... twice. "We we," Weezing cried, glaring angrily but somehow with a rather dull expression on its face.

"Mark!" Skarmory spat, using its wings with to slam Weezing into the ground where it created a hole in the murky ground that was probably full of poisons as well. Shaun knew he would need to get some medicine to prevent any sort of contamination later.

Koga continued to smile that soft smile of his as he looked at his pokemon. "Smokescreen," he commanded.

"Weeee," Weezing said softly, its two heads quickly blowing out the black smoke. Both Skarmory and Shaun began to look around wildly, the small fear that Koga would use Self Destruct or Explosion on them from a safe distance. "Double Hit!" they heard in the distance.

"Skar! Skar!" Skarmory cried as it was hit in the back two times. Just as it turned around and swiped at the air, Weezing was gone. "Kaaar," Skarmory growled lowly.

Eyes shifting, Shaun began to smile as he realized what he could do. His mouth was already open, ready to boast that he could do something about this situation to Koga, but really, what would be the point of that? He would give himself away! "Skarmory, use Swift," he commanded softly, in no more than a whisper just as a sudden movement caught his eye in the mist. Eyes widening, Shaun could only gap as a knife was pressed against his throat.

"Maaary!" Skarmory cried, not having noticed, and already went with the attack. Sharp stars flying crazily all around, there was finally a scream of pain. Not lenting up, Skarmory continued with the attack until, at last, the Smokescreen had cleared, revealing a knocked out Weezing. "Sakr," Skarmory said with a nod before turning around, only to pause as it took in the sight of its trainer.

Shaun's eyes were the only thing that could be seen, but he knew they were narrowed in both anger and fear. One wrong move, and it would be he himself that cut himself with the blade so close to his neck, not Koga. Speaking of the poison master, he looked deep into the purple eyes of the ninja, waiting for him to say something.

Easily getting the hint, Koga allowed that small smiled to drop. "Yoy are an excellent battler, but I'm afraid that as you are the enemy in this war and that you have invaded in my home, I have no choice..."

"Sneasel!" cried the dark type with a shrill voice, his claws slamming down upon Koga.

Nails met knife, and there was a loud clang throughout the area. Shaun immediately jumped away, being sure to jump to the side of his Skarmory. Sneasel, the little psycho, pulled away as soon as it saw its trainer get to safety. "Sneass," Sneasel purred as it licked its claws, looking ready for another kill.

Koga regained that small smile and continued with what he was saying. "...no choice but to let you go."

Shaun blinked, not sure he had heard that right. He looked at Skarmory, only to see a confused look on the birds face. Sneasel was looking at him for more orders, looking ready to kill for him. "Why?" he demanded. "I was sent to kill you."

At this, Koga let out a bark of laughter, truly looking amused for the first time in a long while. "Yes, and you were prepared to go through with those orders, were you?"

Shaun hesitated. "I would have," he said softly, "if it were not you."

"Mm hm." Koga nodded. "It takes a good warrior to know when he is at a disadvantage." He gazed at Shaun. "You were sent to die."

Shaun bit his tongue in irriation. "I have killed others before you," he said irritably, not knowing why he needed to defend himself against this man. "But yes, I know... when I knew who you were."

"Then why do you serve your leader?" Koga asked. There was no accusation, just a simple question.

"For power," Shaun said simply, folding his arms and glaring at the man stubbornly.

Koga inclined his head. "A ninja's duty is always to serve his master," he said after a moment of silence. "It does not matter the order, you had best serve it. However, should there ever be a chance that the tool becomes stronger than the user, that is the time to turn away." Koga closed his eyes. "I should know, as I was once in Team Rocket."

Shaun really didn't know how to react to that. Team Rocket was before his time. Sure, he had heard rumors of them, but with the current threat, they were simply bad memories to those who could recall them.

"Be sure to gain power wisely," Koga said, voice authorative as he reopened his eyes and recalled his fallen Weezing. Slowly, he walked up to Shaun, who seemed frozen in place, but not from fear. Ever so slowly, Koga reached Shaun's bandana and stopped, the two of them gazing into each other's eyes for a moment, before Koga revealed Shaun's face for the first time. "So young," Koga murmered before stepping back. With a smirk, not that small smile, Koga's body vanished in a dark blur, but his voice remained. "You have tried to kill me." The voice rang with amusement. "But you failed, and I shall look forward to our rematch."

Shaun couldn't help but breath deeply, uncaring of the poisonious air. As soon as he gulped, his body tensed as a five star slammed right into the ground, a mere foot by hit his feet. Both Skarmory and Sneasel shifted uncomfortably, not liking that they hadn't sened the attack.

Picking up the ninja weapon, Shaun noticed there were two objects wrapped in a thin cord on the metal weapon. There, in the middle, was an old badge. Koga had been a gym leader, long ago, an had no need for badges anymore, but there one was now. He couldn't help it. Shaun just felt a sense of pride run through him as he held the badge. Turning to the next item, it appeared to be a curved metal thing. Shrugging, Shaun carefull put the items away in his bag. The five star and badge were indeed nice, and he knew they would never provide any sort of use to him, but they were nice trophies.

"Let's go," Shaun commanded as he started walking, Skarmory flying above and Sneasel walking by his side. For the first time, Shaun was grateful he had commanded Sneasel to hide while he enter the town and attack only when he saw the chance. If he hadn't, perhaps Koga may have killed him right there. Whatever the case, it didn't matter. He knew better now.
 
definate end

"Starmie use swift!" Misty yelled to her pokemon through the choppy waves. "Wartortle lets go under!" Grecko commanded his pokemon as they dove under to dodge the attacks.

As Grecko and Wartortle swam under the water they noticed all of the rubble falling in the waves, and Grecko started to get anxious. "GLURRRP!" Grecko yelled as he was thrown off Wartortle from an attack behind.

Misty had come under water to and was now having Starmie attack him. Swimming around to dodge Starmies swift attacks Grecko jumped back onto Wartortles back. He tapped Wartortle on the head and they rose to the top.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Grecko hollered as he came up and got some much needed air. "Starmie swift again!" Misty yelled as her and Starmie jumped into the air. "****" Grecko yelled as the Swift attack made contact with him and Wartortle throwing him back into the water.

"Wartortle!" Grecko yelled as he tried stay above the water, but it was hard because waves kept slamming into him. "This is over boy! Prepare to die! Starmie use swift one last time!" Misty hollered as she prepared to attack.

"I dont think so! Wartortle now!" Grecko yelled past Misty. "WART!" the water pokemon yelled as it jumped up from behind Misty and slammed its tail into her, throwing her into the water as well.

"Ahhh!" Misty yelled as she began to be hit by the waves. Wartortle than hurridely swam over and let Grecko climb on his back again. That's when Grecko noticed the ceiling was about to fall in and most of it right on top of Misty.

"MISTY LOOK OUT!" Grecko yelled as the rocks from the ceiling began to fall down on her. "Ya right!" she yelled back as she began to climb on Starmies back. "Smash!" the rocks slammed into Misty and Starmie causing them to sink.

Grecko was about to look for a way out when he heard his fathers voice again telling him to do the right thing. Grecko than looked under the water and knew what he had to do. "Wartortle get Starmie and i'll get Misty!" he said to his pokemon as he dove into the water.

After diving in Grecko looked around for Misty while dodging the falling rubble. He than noticed her and went over and grabbed her arm. "AHHH!" Grecko once again yelled as he surfaced with Misty and got some air.

Seconds later Wartortle returned with Starmie and Grecko used one of Misty's pokemon to return it. "Now how do we get out of here!" Grecko said to Wartortle as more and more rocks began to fall.

Then he got an idea. He sent out Luxio and ordered it to use the last of it's energy to use spark in the water. With the currents all charged up he ordered Wartortle to use water gun and it caused the water to rise and Grecko was able to escape through the window he had entered in.

He sat their outside the now destroyed gym waiting for Misty to wake up.

2 hours later!

"Where am I!" Misty yelled as she awoke to a fire. "Your safe...your still in Cerulean..." Grecko said to her as she noticed him. "You!!!" She yelled as she stood up and charged at him. "You destroyed my home...everything i had its gone.." Misty said as she began to cry.

"No technically you did it..." Grecko said as the shadows still emerged around him. "Just leave!" she said to Grecko. "No...i need something from you.." Grecko muttered.

"What what else could you possibly take from me! My life! take it! I have nothing to live for now anyway!" Misty than yelled in a panic. "No....I need to meet Sly...shes my last chance for light....." Grecko said to Misty as he picked his head up.

It was true, Grecko wanted out of the darkness that had pracitcally already consumed him. His eyes were now all black and his hair was continuing to flow through the air, all the while the shadows had constircted themselves to his body from the legs up. Grecko was running out of time, because soon he would become darkness itself...much like beo...

OOC: Sorry I just have completely drawn a blank to the end of this battle, but here it is!:

Volume 2, Chapter 3, Pt. II:

"Hurry up." Erika said crossing her arms together impatiently. Max knitted his eyebrows together and squinted his eyes. Ghastly didn't have many damage-dealing moves, but exactly why you train them...Sableye had three damage-dealing attacks, though.

"Go, Sableye!" Max grabbed Sableye's Pokeball and tossed it in to the air. In a blinding white flash the little golden Pokemon appeared. He smiled showing his sharpened teeth. Max shivered a little. Sableye kind of creeped him out...but not much. Then he noticed it! He wasn't afraid of Pokemon as much anymore!

"Victrebell use Razor Leaf." Erika said a little ignorant. Max flinched noticing in her voice that she thought this would be too easy.

"Sableye use Night Shade!" Max shouted. Then, Erika flung her eyelids open, not knowing Sableye knew a move like this.

Victrebell moved her leaves in front of her in a cross, and shot out a bunch of razor sharp turning leaves. Sableye stood in his spot, smiling with his razor sharp teeth still. He then moved out of the way, just a step, before the leaves hit him.

Sableye then moved both of his hands in front of him and the entire room turned pitch black. Suddenly, Sableye disappeared in to the darkness and Victrebell was being mysteriously hit by something. When the light started entering the darkness, Sableye appeared exactly where he had disappeared, and in the exact same motion.

"Victrebell use Sleep Powder!" Erika was now getting a little worried and decided to go on the defense for a few just to make sure Victrebell was ok.

"Dodge it and use Fury Swipes!" Max shouted.

Victrebell jumped closer to Sableye and closed her eyes. Her leaves then began to shake off a green powder. Sableye quickly held his breath and got out of the area. He let out a loud gasp and then shook his head.

He unsheathed his razor sharp claws and waited until the powder had all settled. Then Sableye got an idea! He dashed over at Victrebell as she was still emanating the powder, while holding his breath.

Then he jumped and slashed Victrebell eyes open, and knocked her to the ground, kicking up the settled powder. Sableye quickly got out of the air as the Victrebell began breathing the powder in, then her eyes lingered closed and she fell asleep.

"Awesome job, Sableye! Use Fury Swipes again!" Max said excited.

Sableye kept his claws were they were and then dashed at the sleeping Victrebell. He quickly placed his feet in the potholes where the powder wasn't at and then slashed furiously at Victrebell. He picked her up and threw her in to the nearby wall. Sableye then placed his hands in front of him and the entire room went pitch black.

Then something kept hitting Victrebell mysteriously. As the light penetrated the darkness, Sableye reappeared right where and how he had been. He lowered his arms and the entire filled with light again. Victrebell flickered her eyes open a little, but then closed them again...she was knocked out.

"Yes!" Max shouted exited. He was so happy he had beaten the second Pokemon of Erika.

"Return." Erika growled. "Now go Tangrowth." This time she didn't even throw a Pokeball though. Suddenly, something from the shadows began moving and the ground began shaking. Max stumbled back, but caught himself before he fell.

Then, a huge Pokemon covered in vines appeared. Max took out his Pokedex and scanned the Pokemon.
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness


Species: Tangrowth, the vine Pokemon.
Entry: It ensnares prey by extending arms made of vines. Losing arms to predators does not trouble it.

Max gulped. This was going to be hard. Sableye looked at Max, wondering if he would still be battling this opponent. Max nodded, knowing that he would need Sableye and Growlithe to beat Tangrowth.

Sabeleye turned his gaze back on the gigantic vine-covered Pokemon. The Tangrowth then shot his arm foreward and it extended to Sableye. Sableye leapt out of the way and alnded on the ground, but fell to one knee. Max knitted his eyebrows closer together, tactics would win this one.

"Use Fury Swipes!" MAx commanded.

"USe Vine Whip!" Erika commanded.

Sableye's claws got sharper and sharper with every passing by second. He was waiting for the Tangrowth to attack. Suddenly, the vine arm shot from Tangrowth. Sableye wove himself to the left and ran alongside it. The Tangrowth shot his arm to the left, but Sableye took a risk and leapt on his arm.

Tangrowth then retracted his arm, hopign to make Sableye lose balance and fall off, but instead it took Sableye closer to him. Sableye then leapt off his arm and slashed at his right arm. His right arm slashed to tiny pieces and it fell off. Max's jaw dropped open, but suddenly vines formed from Tnagrowth's shoulder and reattatched his arm to him.

Tangrowth then wacked Sableye away from him with his left arm in a surprise attack. Sableye flew back towards Max and rolled across the ground. Sableye looked up and saw Max's eyes widen in fear. Sableye looked down and slowly rose to his feet...he was exhausted.

"Sableye use Night Shade!" Max shouted.

"Sleep Powder."

The Tangrowth began to shake itself, and green powder emanated from it. Sableye stepped back in to the shadows and disappeared. Tangrowth closed his eyes and suddenly Sableye reappeared and collapsed to the ground at Tnagrowth's feet, asleep.

Tangrowth picked Sableye up in to the air, and then slamemd him back to the ground at his feet. He wrapped his vien arm around Sableye, wondering what to do next.

"Sableye wake up!" Max shouted.

"Constrict." Erika commanded.

Sableye's eyes continued to stay closed and Tangrowth began squeezing his vines tighter and tighter against Sableye. Max took out his Pokeball and pointed it at Sableye. He pressed the middle button and a red beam shot from it and engulfed Sableye, and then took him in to the Pokeball.

Growlithe looked up expectantly at Max. He had been laying on the ground next to his feet the entire time. Max nodded and Growlithe leapt to his feet and walked out on to the field.

"Growlithe use Ember." Max said.

"Use Vine Whip." Erika said.

Growlithe took in a deep breath of air and leapt in to the air. He then shot out a barage of black, smoldering hot embers. They soared through the vine covered gym's air and caught on fire.

Finally, they came to Tangrowth and one after another slammed in to him. Tangrowth bellowed in pain and slashed his vines at Growlithe. Growlithe dodged a few but one wrapped aroudn his foot. Growlithe shot one more ember at the vine, and it recoilled in dismay.

"Now use Bite!" Max shouted.

"USe Sleep Powder." Erika said.

Growlithe bared his fangs at the large vine Pokemon. He began a low deep growling deep in his throat. Tangrowth began shaking again and a green powder emanated. Growlithe barked and Tangrowht's eyes shot open and he stopped shaking.

Growlithe took a few steps and then leapt for Tangrowth, careful not to stur and powder up. He then sunk his teeth in to Tangrowth's head. Tangrowht bellowed in pain and colapsed over on to the ground. Before he collapsed Growlithe leapt off hsi ehad and landed on the ground next to Max. Tangrowth colapsed, knocked out.

Max smirked as Erika returned the Tangrowth and stepped foreward from the vines. She had a very calm face on like nothing had happened. She smirked and then dropped a small orb thing. Smoke emanated from the ball as soon as it landed and Erika disappeared in to the vines. Max was confused. He looked down at Growlithe who was baring his teeth and growling. It had been a confusion orb!

Growlithe looked up at Max and shot forth a few embers, all of which hit his face. Max fell to the ground with a yelp and quickly returned Growlithe. He stumbled over to a piece of mirror and looekd in to it. His face was horrible! It was black and burnt horribly. Max fumbled through his knpasack and pulled out a bandana he had brought for some reason and wrapped it around his face. The onyl spot of his face you could see now was his right eye and his hair. Max stood up and left.

Before he left he noticed something catch his attention. A small badge. Max bent over and grabbed it. He shoved it in to his bag's tiniest pocket and trudged off. It was a nice trophy.

(OOC: Ok everyone sorry ive been really busy with essays, and studying I promise to hopefully have the new chapters up tonight, if I can get my minority realtions essay and statistics work out of the way)
 
"I am so psyched!" Angela thought with a wide grin on her face "My first gym battle… Surge won't know what hit em" she chuckled to herself, while hugging Nel "Even though none of my Pokemon have good type advantages against him, we can still take that guy out" she nodded, her face set determinedly "I'm sure of it!" her happy thoughts however, were interrupted by Gage's deep sigh Angela glanced at him "What's wrong" she asked "I don't know if we can do this Angela... I've seen him battle.. He's a relentless battler and on top of that..... I don't know if I will be able to battle him without my emotions getting in the way... He sort of taught me a lot about battling...." Gage laughed nervously, " I guess it really doesn't matter how nice he was to me.... If he's with the Dark Brotherhood then we need to put a stop to him..."

Unsure of what to say, Angela could only gape, for a few moments while they walked on in an awkward silence. "It's the gym… its so big" she thought glancing the large building with wide eyes "Pikaa" Bolt whispered, right before she and Gage glanced at one another and nodded, ready for whatever challenge awaited them in the gym. Slipping through the doors together, both teens and Pokemon looked around at the mechanical marvels that decorated the room. The two continued walking in staring at all the cogs and gears clicking around them. In the far back of the room there was an odd entryway into a second much smaller room with a desk and a map covered in X's in the back. From the corner of the smaller room came an unfamiliar voice that echoed through the gym resonating off the walls. "Ahaha haha so you think your going to take this gym from me and the Dark Brotherhood you can try"

"You bet we are!" Angela shouted running towards the small room. Unaware of Gage trying to warn her before it was too late, a metallic door shot up from the ground blocking the room from sight. "How unfortunate… I was hoping to battle Gage, but I guess you'll do" Angela glared at the man tall muscly who stood before her, with his vicious looking Raichu by his side "Rai! Raichu!" the Raichu smirked, leering at Bolt who hissed and glared back "Hehe, what a runt, that's a pretty pathetic looking Pikachu you've got there"

"Hey!"

"Pika!"

"Take that back, Bolt's the strongest Pikachu around" Bolt nodded his head in agreement at Angela's praise "He's way tougher than your Raichu" Surge just shook his head and let out a sharp bark "Whatever you say kid, you here to battle or what" Angela gave a determined nod while Bolt and Nel stood by her side "Course I am, name the game Surge"

"A Three-On-Three battle, first to drop wins" he pointed to the field "Get in there Raichu and use Thunderbolt" Raichu nodded and bounded into the field, his cheeks sparking violently "Alright Bolt your up… show that Raichu who's boss" Bolt nodded and ran onto the field "Use Thundershock!" Bolt released the pent up energy and shocked Raichu "Raichuuu" Raichu just smirked and shook off the shock, before returning the attack with a more powered version of his attack Bolt cried out as electricity coursed through his body "Now use Quick Attack Raichu!" Raichu nodded "RaiRaiRaiRaiRaichu!" Raichu had slammed himself into Bolt, who was still immobilized by the Thunderbolt, Bolt got send flying back and skidding to a halt near Angela's feet.

"You alright Bolt?"

He bounced back quickly onto his feet and glared daggers at Surge's Raichu while his cheeks sparked "Pika!" Suge let out a deep bellowing laugh while he rubbed the bridge of his nose cockily "Heh, I thought your puny Pikachu would be down for the count after that, but I guess I was wrong, huh kid?" Angela snorted "Tch. You'll need more than a little shock and a tackle to take Bolt down, right Bolt?" Bolt nodded and sprang into action, charging at Raichu "Pikachu!"

"Thunderbolt Raichu!"

"Dodge with Quick Attack Bolt"

Raichu fired off the Thunderbolt and Bolt quickly dashed to the side, just missing the attack barely "Now!" then with the speed from Quick Attack, he charged at Surge's Raichu and slammed his head right into the mouses torso, but Raichu seemed extremely unaffected by the hit and just shrugged it off "Rai Raichuu" he smirked haughtily down at Bolt "Thunderbolt again" Surge commanded and Raichu's cheeks sparked viciously "Bolt, get away!" Bolt's eyes widened at the evil glint in Raichu's eye "Raichuuu" electricity crackled loudly and Bolt didn't stand a chance.

"Piika"

Bolt was lying in the middle of the field with swirly eyes, with Raichu standing over him with a triumphant smirk, that mirrored his trainer " Heh great job Raichu, now return" Raichu nodded and ran back to Surge's side "What I tell ya, that puny Pikachu of yours didn't stand a chance" Angela scowled and picked up her fallen Pikachu "Don't listen to him Bolt, you did a great job" she murmured hugging the mouse to her chest before pulling out her next choice "Grace your up!"

"Smeargle! Smear!"

"What's this, another weakling?" Surge asked pulling out a Pokéball and Angela stuck her tongue out at him "Don't underestimate Grace, she packs one hell of a punch!" she explained pointing to said Smeargle, who was currently watching her tail, ignoring the two bickering people. Surge snorted and laughed at the preoccupied Smeargle "Pssh, your Smeargle looks a bit dopey to me" Angela scowled in response "Grace is not dopey! Watch, she's send your next Pokémon home crying!"

"That's what you said about yer wimpy Pikachu and look what happened to the runt" he smirked pointing to Bolt, who was resting in her arms and both Trainer and Pokémon just glared at Surge "Just call out your next Pokémon" she grumbled and Surge nodded before tossing down his Pokéball "Electabuzz go!"

"Electabuzz, start off with Thundershock!"

"Electa!" Electabuzz's two antennea sparked and he fired off Thundershock at the seemingly oblivious Grace "Use Bubble!" upon command, the peppy Smeargle quickly snapped into action and a stream of Bubble's met the spark of electricity and canceled out the attack "Now Grace! Follow up with Poison Sting!" Grace then opened her mouth and released several needles at Electabuzz "Light Screen!" A thin screen of gold quickly materialized infron of Electabuzz, the instant the poison needles were about to hit, protecting the Electric Pokémon from harm.

"Smeargle..."

Grace frowned and crossed her arms, upset that her attack didn't hit "Its alright Grace, we'll hit em next time" Angela reassured the painter who nodded and got back into a fighting stance "Hmm not bad for a runt" Surge said with a laugh "Yer Smeargle's doing much better than that puny Pikachu of yours" Angela scowled but said nothing, knowing the older man was just trying to get a rise from her "And its working oh so well!" she thought cursing Surge to every form of hell there was mentally "Now Electabuzz, use Quick Attack then follow up with Low Kick"

With the speed from Quick Attack, Electabuzz managed to appear before Grace within mere moments and his foot was then seen pulling back and kicking the painter in the torso, causing Grace to get sent flying back, but she was only down for a few seconds before she quickly hopped back up "Smeargle!" Grace bounced on the balls of her toes, waiting for the next ocmmand "Alright Grace, use Poison Sting!"

"Light Screen!"

Grace fired off another round of needles, which were effortlessly blocked by the Light Screen "Low Kick!" Electabuzz dashed out from behind the safety of his screen and aimed a well placed kick at Grace's torso "Dodge it!" Grace nimbly dodged the attack, bouncing back out of the way as the kick barely missed her nose by an inch "Again!" Surge barked as Electabuzz kicked his legs out again "Dodge it Grace!" and Grace repeated her previous actions and bouncing back out of the way, they kept this repetitiveness up, until Grace had been backed into a corner with nowhere to back up to "Heh Your stuck now kid" Surge said with a triumphant smirk "One last time and make it a good one Electabuzz! Low Kick!"

"Take it head on Grace and follow up with Arm Thrust!"

A sly grin crept on Angela's face as she watched Grace take the hit and quickly follow up with several successful Arm Thrusts and she managed to push Electabuzz back far enough and free herself from the corner "Way to go Grace! That was some awesome Arm Thrusting" Angela cheered and Grace bounced around happily "Smeargle! Smeargle! Smear--!" there was a loud crackle that zipped through the air, followed by several shocked cries and Grace stopped bouncing and stared wide eyed at Angela, who suddenly lit up like a Christmas tree, her body was suddenly engulfed in blue electricity she, Bolt and Nel could only stare in shock.

"Electaaa"

Grace looked to Electabuzz, who looked a bit shocked himself, he didn't plan on Shock Wave hitting the girl, it was aimed for Grace, but either its aim was off or the damn dog wouldn't stay still long enough to get hit... either way it was an accident. All Angela managed to register, was that compared to Bolt's kiddy shocks... she never ever wanted to feel something as painful as this again, right before blacking out.

"This was my favorite shirt too!"

Angela had only come to a few moments ago, memories of the previous battle came flooding back and a sad smile appeared on her face "Guess we loss... huh Bolt?" upon hearing no answer Angela finally took in her surroundings and noticed that she was in an unfamiliar place and her hands quickly shot to her belt, only to find it empty and she quickly shot up and began searching for her Pokéballs "Where are they--!"

"Oh"

She quickly noticed her Pokéballs resting on the table right beside the bed she was in and quickly equipped them back on her belt and releasing Bolt from his ball. Her Pikachu was now well rested and seemed to be feeling much better than before "Chaaa" he stretched out on the bed before glancing up at Angela "Pikachu!" he leapt into her arms and nuzzled her cheek affectionately "Pikaaa" Angela smiled and hugged Bolt "I'm glad your okay too" she glanced around the somewhat small bedroom "So... do you happen to know where we are?" Bolt shook his head no, unsure of their current location "Hmm... Well then, I guess we'd better find out" she murmured opening the room door and paused when she heard a familiar, Gage, and an unfamiliar voice, it sounded a bit old and she only managed half of whatever the conversation Gage was having with this unfamiliar voice.

She felt her face heat up at his words "Well grandpa... I don't know... She's pretty and shes a good battler and... she's funny... And sometimes a little scary...." Angela's blush died slightly and she scowled at him stating she was scary "I am not scary! Am I scary Bolt?" she hissed in a harsh whisper to Bolt, who sweat dropped and quickly shook his head no while Angela went back to the conversation "... And I guess I like her... A lot..." Angela had decided to make herself known and shut the door, with a bit more force than necessary, resulting in a loud slam/smash "Hehe oops" she murmured glancing at worried or stunned looking Gage, she couldn't tell at the moment, her was just speechless so his grandfather spoke up for him.

"Well good morning young lady, I hope the bed was comfortable." she glanced curiously around the light house "Yes it was very nice sir, thank you." Angela then gave a courteous bow "Don't thank me young miss, it was Gage her who carried you out of the gym and made sure you were safe above all else." His grandfather pointed to him and smiled beneath his white beard. "Well... Thank you very much Gage" she murmured and Bolt gave a stiff nod of thanks as well.

Gage's grandfather, noticing the tension, stood up and said, "Well I have certain club business to attend too so if you don't mind I really should have my leave!" He pulled a small stone from his pocket and held it out to Angela she studied the light green stone with a Thunderbolt Insignia "A Thunder Stone" her eyes widened slightly "From what I see you have a Pikachu, this could come in handy someday." He smiled and walked out of the house mounting his Fearow. "You be good Gage and keep fighting the good fight!" he said as his Pokemon took off.

"I really don't know what he means by Pokemon Club business, we haven't had a member walk through the club doors in years..." Gage said and Angela let out a small chuckle "Oh yeah here you go by the way." Gage threw her one of the badges which she caught gracefully. She stared at te badge for a few second and then said, "We should really call Sly now..." Gage picked up the house phone and began dialing the number. When Sly's voice answered with a hello Gage said, "We've taken down Surge, come by to claim the gym."

[OOC: I've said it about 3 times before, but I'm really sorry! Bleh.... with testing last week and me getting sick... colds suck ._. yeah.. totally put me outta commission... plus schools being a pain in the ass, but that's nothing new... sorry again!]

Clan of Hope
Volume 2
Chapter 4
Physic Advantages

It's another dark day in Kanto, when Gage receives a call from Sly at his grandfathers house. "Gage, good job on securing the gym, but you need to hurry up and quickly make your way towards Saffron City, you'll have to battle Sabrina, one of the toughest gym leaders in Kanto because of her ability to..." The call drops and you wonder why, but you figure it to be nothing. You now have your next orders and you two start heading off towards Saffron city.


You head up route 6 which is a direct route to Saffron city from Vermillion, but as you near the entrance, you see something that makes you feel pretty unsafe. Lining the entrance of Saffron is about ten dark brotherhood members, and there looking straight at you, you start to wonder how they knew youd be heading this way.. Then you see her, Sabrina, the dark brotherhood move silently to open a small path for her to walk out to.


"haha you really thought I wouldn't foresee you coming, I really do love being able to predict things, to bad you won't live long enough to see the ending i've already foreseen of this world, but don't worry your deaths are nice and painfull, now gaurds get them." Sabrina yells as she then vanishes and all ten of the gaurds call out there pokemon.


Ten pokemon you have to face all at once.. You can each use all of your pokemon. if there is a x2 next to there name that means theres two of them!

After you defeat all of there pokemon, all of the gaurds slowly vanish into the ground, and then Tai slowly emerges from the ground somethings different about him though, Tai is completly covered in Dark shadows, his eyes are completly black, and he has a darker voice. Without hesitating he slowly calls outa pokemon that know one knew about.. not even Beo himself, DARKRAI. This may be the reason Tai is so close to Beo, he seems to have the same intrest in the dark, and it now seems like it has fully taken him over, is this what happens to people who can't control the darkness?

After defeating Koga, Beo emerges behind you "Well done Shaun, it seems I was right to put my faith into you, Now I have to get moving so i'm gonna just throw you to your next destination, route 20 right next to the seafoam islands, sorry if I miss the mark alittle bit, i'm in a hurry" Beo says as the darkness once again converges over your body and throws you throw the vortex, all of a sudden you open your eyes to see your slowly sinking into the deapths of the ocean... As you swim up to the surface, you look around to see there is no land to be seen, and suddenly a huge wave converges over top of you and you are knocked unconsicous.

"Hey kid wake up" As a familiar voice says, as you open your eyes you see that you are in a cold damp cave, full of ice, and you look in front of you to see none other then prof. Oak, once again sipping at his coffee and reading the paper, you wonder why he is always so calm, you also wonder why he is in this cave.

"Well Shaun I'd say you've had quit an evening, your lucky I was swimming by when that wave hit you, how do you like the new base Lance set up for me, unfortunatly Lance isn't here, soo you can't really try to kill him at the moment. I was actually going to ask you to quit the Dark Brotherhood, and work for me, and Lance... If you refuse i'll have to battle you Oak said, as the first time he got an intense look in his eye.

It's your turn to make a decsion join up with Oak and Lance, or stay with the brotherhood, also What was Oak and Lance doing that is not apart of Zyphers team?

Shaun wasn't all that surprised to realize Beo would screw up his location when he showed up and teleported him away. he also wasn't all that surprised when the ocean current that Beo teleported him to was far too strong for him to fight and, before he could even call out Golduck, he was unconcious. He was surprised, however, when he awoke in a safe place and wasn't dead. To his horror, his bandana was lying next to him on the bed he was lying in. He was dry, at least, but whoever it was that was holding him captive (or was he?), the person knew his face.

"Ah, you're awake," the voice of his savior said, drawing his attention to his left. It was Professor Oak and, as usual, he was sipping coffee and looking at ease. "Well Shaun I'd say you've had quit an evening, your lucky I was swimming by when that wave hit you, how do you like the new base Lance set up for me, unfortunatly Lance isn't here, soo you can't really try to kill him at the moment. I was actually going to ask you to quit the Dark Brotherhood, and work for me, and Lance... If you refuse I'll have to battle you," Oak said, as the first time he got an intense look in his eye.

Slowly, Shaun got out of bed. Professor Oak waited patiently, even going as far as offering a cup of coffee. Tentatively, Shaun took a sip. The old man didn't seem to be the type to poison his drink, and he was right. The coffee gave him strength.

"What a shame," Professor Oak said with a sigh, "that the league has been destroyed and the normalcy of badges is long gone. I would have loved to have seen you battle in the Kanto League." He gave Shaun a piercing look. "You always had a strong look, much like my grandson. he didn't treat pokemon as friends, but instead as tools and useful things when he stared as well but, like you, he had a grudging respect for them." His smile disappeared as Shaun walked back a bit, his hand hovering on his pokeball. Oak closed his eyes, wondering what the young man was thinking. "I think its time," he said, tossing a pokeball high into the air.

As soon as the pokeball flashed open with a burst of white light, a yellow mouse pokemon appeared. "Pika!"
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

Shaun blinked slowly at the pokemon. An electric type. The best bet against this would be... "Go!" he barked, sending out Gible in a flash of white light.

"Gii!" Gible cried as he appeared. Eagerly, it turned to Pikachu and let its tongue roll out, looking far too excited for a battle.

Professor Oak frowned in dismay, knowing that his strong Thunderbolt attack would be useless. "Slam," he ordered to the pokemon.

"Piku!" Pikachu snarled with a deadliness that Shaun wished his own pokemon had. The yellow mouse dropped to all fours and charged, ears flapping from the force of the wind as it charged, already flying though the air and just about to Slam Gible.

"Dragon Rage, close range," Shaun ordered, folding his arms.

"Lib," Gible said with a nod. Mouth wide open, Pikachu could only widen his eyes in shock as the red and purple draconic fire was spat out, hitting head on without miss at such a close range.

"Pikkkka!" PIkachu screamed, writhing around through the fire, unable to escape the exact damage that all Dragon Rage attacks were known for. It was painful, but Pikachu knew his trainer, and long time friend, was counting on him. "Chu!" he spat, bursting through the flames, covered in burns, but he did this for his trainer, and Slammed right into a surprised Gible, knocking the baby dragon type over and sending it sprawling.

"Gii," Gible said bleakly, holding its stomach as it carefully got up. It glanced at the yellow mouse, watching with interest as it sparked at the cheeks before turning back to his trainer for more commands.

"Slam," came Professor Oak's voice.

"Sandstorm," Shaun said quickly, just as Pikachu dropped to all fours and charged. The electric mouse had to stop this time, however, because a blast of sand erupted from the two horns on Gible's head, creating a very blurry battle field.

"Again, I am impressed!" Professor Oak called over the roar of the Sandstorm. "Using tactics instead of brute force... but I have been a trainer far longer than you. Slam!"

"Chuu!" came the guttural cry of the electric mouse, even if there was a hint of a wince from the tough sand hittng its hide. Shaun watched carefully for any sign of the mouse.

"Sand Attack," he ordered, knowing the sand dragon could see perfectly in this blurry field.

"Libli," Gible said happily, already kicking up sand towards its right. As Slam was a move that is hard to hit with, the sand in its eyes perfected the miss.

"Cha," Pikachu scoffed as it shook its head, trying to clear the sand out of its eyes. Enraged, its body sparked with power and, with a birght yellow light, it shot a Thunderbolt right at Gible.

To the side, Professor Oak sighed at his pokemon's behavior, but couldn't condone it. being blind was rather scary. With Gible, the dragon type just cocked his head, more curoius than scared.

"Dragon Rage," Shaun ordered. Now was his chance to hit the Pikachu, as it began to wince in pain as the Sandstorm began to wither away with its last force. It was a rather short storm, but it did its purpose.

"Gii!" Gible cried, mouth wide and draconic fire already flying from its mouth and exploding all around Pikachu, sending the electric mouse in a high pitched fit as it attempted to escapse the ring of fire.

"Chaa," Pikachu moaned, ears flat as, at last, it opened its eyes. With a hateful glare, it escaped through the fire, its eyes lit up as it charged and swung its tail with full force at Gible.

"Gi!" Gible gasped, now quite literally flying through the air before bouncing a few times. "Lii," it said weakly, glancing at Shaun for help.

"Finish it," Shaun ordered. "It's almost finished." He would need his pokemon to finish it, because if he lost... he didn't even want to think about it.

"Gii," Gible said in understanding, standing resolutely while Pikachu panted horribly on all fours, its body pretty much done for.

"Quick Attack," Oak ordered, his face giving away that he already knew the outcome.

"Tackle," Shaun barked.

As the two pokemon charged, it was obvious who the winner would be. With Gible's hard body and slight wounds against Pikachu's soft, bruised body, it was a clear win. As Gible lowered its head so that the sharp fin raked against Pikachu's flesh, the electric mouse was sent sumbling away, a vicious red mark already appearing on its skin.

"Thank you, my friend," Professor Oak said as he recalled the fallen Pikachu by his feet. "You have fought bravely." With the mouse safely returned, Professor Oak called out his next pokemon. With a burst of white light, a blue turtle pokemon with a swirly tail appeared.
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

It bared its fangs at Gible, water already running from its mouth. "Return," Shaun said, holding out his pokeball. With a glance to his right, he noticed it was dark. With a grin, he threw his next pokeball. "Go!"

With a burst of white light, Sneasel appeared. "Sneaa!" Sneasel cried, swiping at the air and looking overconfident.

"I've heard about this particular Sneasel of yours," Professor Oak said, his face betraying nothing. "About how... strong it is."

Shaun was unable to hide his grin. "And he's about to get much stronger now. Sneasel, catch!" he yelled at his pokemon, throwing the metal item at the dark pokemon. Easily, the feathered pokemon caught it, blinking once before being engulfed in a bright, white light. It was evolving. Once the pokemon was done glowing, a new figure stood in its place.

"Weavile!"

Mission Max:

" So Gage you can kill your own brother but not, a gym leader barley knew?" a voice came from behind you. You turn around to see Beo standing there with a odd look on his face. "I need to get out of here quickly, Tai is being sort of a disturbance right now, and he has something, that should be mine, so i'm sending you to Mount silver, sorry if I miss my mark" Beo said as the shadows grab you and hurl you through and out into mid-air. As you look around, you realize you are falling, and there are some really spikey rocks below you, all of a sudden you are caught and somehow pass out.

You wake up a little while later and notice your on top of Mount moon, then you see someone, someone who is about in there mid fortys you don't really know standing in front of you. "Hello there, I couldn't help but notice you were in trouble so I saved you, the names Giovanni" You then realize this is the Giovanni that once led team rocket. "Listen kid, I know who you are, me and Bruno have been monitoring your work with the Dark Brotherhood, and we want to make you an offer to quit them, and join me in him, if you want we can battle for it" Givoanni said juggling a pokeball up and down in his hands.

Vol. 2, Chapt. 4, Pt. I:

Max rubbed the top of his head. His head hurt so much and his face felt like it was still on fire. Max had his left eye closed, because whenever it was open it felt like his whole eye was on fire and that it would pop out any minute.

"So Max, you can kill your own brother but not, a gym leader barley knew?" someone suddenly asked him. Max jumped a little, as he recognized the voice. He reluctantly spun around on his foot and looked up at Beo. "I hardly recognized you with that bandana on. I need to get out of here quickly, Tai is being sort of a disturbance right now, and he has something, that should be mine, so i'm sending you to Mount silver, sorry if I miss my mark." Beo said.

Max was getting ready to ask what Tai was doing wrong. It was Tai. He never did anything wrong for the Dark BRotherhood. Before Max could say anything though, a huge black portal opened up behind him and Beo shoved him through. The blackness of the portal never got easy for him to go through.

Max closed both of his eyes ad a few seconds of falling later opened them up. Now he was falling, through the air! That big stupid idiot, Beo! He had hauled him in to the middle of the air. And over spiky rocks! Max would die!

Suddenly, a huge bird shadow covered over him, and something grabbed the back of his shirt. Max continued to watch the spikes as something from his bag fell out and crashed to tiny pieces on the spikes below. Max suddenly fell unconcious.

---
Max flickered his eyes open. He smelled something delicious. Max sat up and got to his feet, but quickly sat back down as he felt light-headed. He then heard chuckling behind him. Max spun around and saw a man about 42, maybe 43 standing in front of him.

"What do you want, old man?" Max demanded.

"Hello there, I couldn't help but notice you were in trouble so I saved you, the names Giovanni." Max suddenly clamped his hands over where hsi mouth should have been, but clamped them over his bandana. This was the Giovvani that had once lead Team Rocket.

Max then looked past him and saw a bowl of something sitting on a flat rock. "I-is that...ramen noodles?" Max asked. He could have sworn he was drooling.

"Yeah...you want it?" Max nodded and giovanni gave him the bowl of noodles. Max undid the bandana a little to where he could eat and imedietly began scarfing the food down.

"Listen kid, I know who you are, me and Bruno have been monitoring your work with the Dark Brotherhood, and we want to make you an offer to quit them, and join me in him, if you want we can battle for it." Giovanni said. Max looked up and saw that he was juggling a Pokeball around it. Max finished eating his ramen and stood up.

"Whatever. Listen, I can beat you. I would have had second thoughts if I was part of Clan Hope, but I'm stronger now because I'm in the Dark Brotherhood. Thanks and all for saving me, but I'm leaving." Max turned around to leave, but suddenly Giovanni reached out and snagged his right arm. Max turned his head around and winced at the sight of Giovanni's expression.

"FIne. I'll battle you. 2 on 2." Max said.

END
(I'll do next post as battle:))
 
PikaLover10: Great post, Everyone loves ramen noodles!!

Mission Grecko

Every boy dreams of one day growing up to be like there father, but what if along the way that boy got corrupted, lost his way after his father left him. It is said the only person that can bring a boy back from the brink of destruction is the one man who knows the boy all to well. His father.

As you sit on the out skirts of Ceurlean city, the darkness covering your body, you look up to the sky and wonder how you got into this situation, you also wonder if there is any going back. Then you hear footsteps behind you, you look up and see the man that caused this to happen to you, Beo. "Wow Grecko your really embracing the darkness, and thats good, i'm about to go get rid of Tai.. he has become a problem for me.. so that means the offer goes to you to be my next right hand man... but i'll let you think on that right now your getting sent to Cinnibar island buh bye.. and think about the offer" Beo says as the darkness grabs you and hurls you into the darkness. You then appear inside of a volcano on cinnibar, and as your falling you quickly grab onto a ledge with one hand. Just hanging there you think to yourself that this may be the way your going to die, finally your hand slips and you go plummiting into the lava, the darkness, you close your eyes and decide to embrace it. And you slowly drift off into sleep.

"Hey boy wake up" a man says as you open your eyes, and look out to see a man in a brown cloak and a raggedy beard standing over a pot of food. You wonder how your still alive but you quickly run over to the pot of food. "Sorry but this is mine, you can't have any unless you can tell me who I am" the man says. As you sit there and ponder the question you hear a faint kindness in his voice, and then you recognize him it's your father. "You know son, I didn't want this for you, I wanted you to fight the darkness instead........ you embraced it, you let it take over your soul, and you've become a monster like Beo, now there is only one thing to do.. You must battle with me.. to the death my son, for when I left you I failed you, and now I must right my wrong" Your father says as he reaches for his pokeball.

Weavile, Shadow Ball!" Shaun barked at his newly evolved pokemon, barely giving Proffesor Oak time to get ready. The man had simply been watching the pokemon evolve, his face turning into a grimace as, ever so quickly, Weavile shot a Shadow Ball much faster than before when it was a Sneasel.

"Wav!" Weavile barked, voice much deeper than before, and smirk twice as deadly looking. The dark pokemon grinned and cackled as the water turtle was hit head on and blasted away with a small explosion.

"Warr!" Wartortle called as it slid on its back, only to fight to get up as it got stuck on its back, wobbling awkwardly desperately.

"Wartortle, Protect," Professor Oak said quickly as soon as Shaun ordered a Fury Swipes attack on the down pokemon.

"Torot," the water turtle called out in understanding, quickly encompassing itself in a bright blue shield, just before Weavile slammed into it with its much sharper claws than before.

"Viel," Weavile said in disgust from atop the blue shield, its face scrunched up in a glare. With a nod from its trainer, Weavile jumped away, already powering up its Shadow Ball, knowing that it would just have to wait until the Protect went down.

Oak remained calm through it all. "Wartortle, Water Gun."

"Torot!" Wartortle cried as it released its Protect, mouth wide open as it sent a torrent of cold water right at Weavile.

"Wavil!" Weavile cried out, already shooting the ghostly energy as soon as the blue shield went down. The Shadow Ball hit true as Wartortle was still on its back, desperately trying to get up. Unfortunately, even though the attack did plenty of damage, the force of the blast that hit Wartortle sent it flying, and the water turtle used that chance to land itself into a standing position with a toothy, but rather tired, smile. "Wa," Weavile spat before yelping as the Water Gun hit him in the gut sending him sliding back. "Weav!" Wavile snarled, using its three new sharp toes to dig into the ground to stop its backward treck.

"Rapid Spin!" Oak ordered quickly before Weavile could recover.

"Quick Attack!" Shaun barked, hoping the speedy attack could hit before the Rapid Spin. Weavile gave a grunt, because even though Wartortle stopped its Water Gun after that next attack, water still came from the rest of the blast that had yet to hit the dark type.

"Warr!" Watortle cried, quickly withdrawing into its shell. Semingling levitating, the water turtle began to spin and slammed itself right into a gasping Weavile, gracefully slamming the pokemon back.

"Wal!" Weavile yelped, limbs flailing as it flew through the air. With an ugly sneer, the dark type quickly did several manuevere's through the air to get it right in the air, a ghostly energy glowing in its claws. "Viille!" it yelled, throwing the energy towards its oppoenent.

Wartortle took a deep breath and began to fire a Water Gun, using the last of its energy to fight against the incoming ball of energy. "Warrrr..." Wartortle grumbled as the water began to receed, but that was what Weavile was waiting for.

"Now!" Shaun barked.

"Wartortle, to your left!" Oak shouted out.

"War... tortle!" Wartortle cried as Weavile appeared instantly at its side, using the speed of Quick Attack to get there and then using its Fury Swipes to bruise and screatch the turtle pokemon on the chest. "Turt," Wartortlr grimaced, glaring at Weavile and preparing to use Water Gun, but it forgot one little thing. The force of the Water Gun that had been pushing against the Shadow Ball was no longer there. So, before Wartortle could even take a deep breath, the ghostly ball slammed into the water turtle. "Warrrrrr!" Wartortle screamed, eyes wide and tail stiff as the pain consumed him before darkness, thankfully, took him away.

Professor Oak looked both grim and proud as he recalled his fainted pokemon. "Thank you, my friend," the aging man said softly to his pokemon. "You did well." Grabbing a new pokeball, the old man shouted, "Go!"

What appeared next completely surprised Shaun. It was small, brown, and had large ears and a fluffy tail. "Eee!" it called happily, a cry that was not suited for such a serious battle.
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Path to Light or Darkness

"Weavile, return," Shaun said to his exhasuted pokemon. As soon as his pokemon had been returned, he tossed the next pokeball, forgoing the typical "Go!"

As his pokemon appeared, it gave out its battle screech. "Skarrr!" the metallic bird called, wings raised fully and beak poised, as always. This pokemon was such a good soldier, but it did tend to have an ego, because as soon as it glance down at the hopping Eevee, it gave a disdainful sniff and turned its head away.

"I'm impressed that you've managed to get yourself such a good pokemon," Oak said with a friendly smile. Shaun figured it would be good not to tell the old man he had stolen it. "A shiny is very rare, even in my day, and now they are nere impossible to find." His eyes looked over the metallic bird curiously before blanching as the giant metal bird opened its large beak and shot a quick Swift attack that easily slammed into the far too curious Eevee at its feet.

"Eeeev!" the normal type cried out in pain as it staggered back, lip quivering as it let out a whimper.

"Oh, Eevee," Proffesor Oak said with sorrow. "I am so sorry I let myself get distracted. "Indeed, the man did truly look sorry for letting himself go into Professor Mode. Clearing his throat, Oak said, "Quick Attack," with as much authority as possible.

"Vee!" Eevee called bravely, lifting its bushy tail into a pose before charging.

"Saa," Skarmory scoffed before yawning as it simply brought its chest up and watching the tiny pokemon easily bounce against its chest and land on the floo.

"Ev," Eevee said dejectedly, looking as if it had gotten itself hurt instead of Skarmory.

"Mor," Skarmory said snidely, peering down at a glaring fox pokemon. With another scoff, the giant metal bird took its wing and slashed down on it, sending it tumbling away and leaving a good many hairs behind.

"Veee!" Eevee cried, shaking as a few lines appeared on its back from the make-shift slash attack. "Vee," Eevee gowled lowly before lowering its head and charging.

Professor Oak watched, not having the heart to tell his pokemon that it was no match for this metallic beast. Eevee's while cute and strong in their own way, weren't than much of battlers. It was their evolutions that made them so wanted, and it was sad, but Oak still cared deeply for the young Eevee.

"Skarr!" Skarmory finally cried out, patience gone as the Eevee charged. Flapping its wings to gain air level, Skarmory peered down at the Eevee as it skidded to a stop and looked up, tail poofed up in anger. "Maar!" Skarmory shrieked, startling the normal type into dropping its glare. Angling its wings, Skarmory dove and scooped up the Eevee and carried it high into the air within its beak. From the look of the squirming Eevee, the grip was obviously very strong, and Shaun suspected that this was what it looked like when a Skarmory hunted for food, and it seemed Eevee was its next meal.

Proffesor Oak understood this as well and immediately raised his hand and pointed the pokeball at his pokemon, calling desperately, "Return!" With so much experience in perfecting his aim, the old proffesor struck true as the beam of red light latched onto the scared Eevee and returned it to its pokeball, much to Skarmory's irritation. With a huff, it landed with a snort, and it took every bit of self control from Shaun not to burst out laughing.
