Chapter 14: Magma:
Loryn and Seth continued to talk a little before both turning to a man who they call 'Ikuro'. Well, now Max 'kinda' knew three new trainers. Seth and Ikuro soon left the room as Loryn offered to show Max to Yuki's house. Max accepted, but Loryn soon had to go, so she explained the whereabouts of Yuki's house before taking off.
Max just decided to stroll down to the entrance of the building and threw open the door. Eevee smiled up at him and Max smiled in return. They followed the direction Loryn had given them and they soon found Yuki's house, Max was sure of it. But, as he and Eevee neared the house, there were no signs of life suggesting that Yuki was not home, Max still attempted to knock on the door, but to no response. All of a sudden, two figures approached him from either side, they were the Team Magma grunts from the volcano, they once again sent out their Houndoom. Max threw a Pokéball up, and into the air and a Torterra appeared in front of him, grins appeared on the grunt's faces.
"Really, you use a Grass type against two Fire types?!?" one of them said in a sarcastic voice.
"Wait a minuite! This is the boy from the volcano, not the Yuki boy with the lead on us!" The other exclaimed. Max gasped at this comment. "You know where the Yuki boy is? Don't you?" The grunt pushed.
"No, and I never wanna see him again!" Max yelled at them, Eevee backed away.
"Ohhh, someone upset you?" The first grunt said in a sarcastic voice once again.
"Terra, use Focus Blast!" Max yelled, the two Houndoom jumped and the move missed.
"Houndoom, Flamethrower!" They said in unison, as the twin hounds obeyed. Once the flames died down and Max's Zoroark was revealed as well a huge grin on Max's face.
"You didn't think I was that stupid?" Max said "Did you? Ark, finish off with another Focus Blast!" Max commanded as the Zoroark did so, knocking the two hounds to the ground. "Oh, and by the way, I don't know where Yuki is, I was just looking for him and I do want to see him again." Max yelled at them again as they ran away, into the distance, towards the volcano.
The invisible being flew out of the coliseum and flew over and looked down on Max, Eevee and Ark as the latter was returned to his Pokéball.
