Suddenly Abu started to change. Within a few seconds there was now a bright pink Ambipom where once was a small purple Aipom. "Abu?" She tried to reach out for him, but he just glared at her with a frenzied look in his eyes. She jumped out of the way as he swung both his tails in an iron tail. One of them grazed her arm painfully, but she got out of the way in time.
"ALL HEIL GIOVANNI!" The scientist called before disappearing, leaving Liliana to deal with her enraged Pokémon. She quickly sent out Nala. "Nala, please deflect his attacks, but don't hurt him!" Abu came at her again with an Iron Tail, but she jumped away and kept him busy.
"Abu?! Come on little one, you must recognize me!" The Ambipom looked at her with a flare and jumped up, tail crackling with thunder. Liliana cringed away, but just before she was hit with a mean thunder punch Nala hit him from the side and set him smashing into the wall. "Thank you Nala. Abu, come on. THINK!" Snapping at an enraged Pokémon might not be the smoothest battle tactic, but it was all she could think of. Nala stood protectively between them but she clearly showed that she thought Liliana was being stupid. But she didn't question Lili either and just stood in between them.
The Ambipom roared again and launched a fire punch. Nala jumped away with a start, and Liliana ran away just in time. The ground where the punch hit cracked and fire surrounded it. The wet ground made a hissing sound as steam welled up everywhere. After the steam cleared up he looked around to find them again. He put his paws together creating an ominous aura and fired the purple shadow ball at Liliana and Nala. Nala avoided it again, but it hit Liliana's side as she tried to get away and she landed on the ground. She briefly wondered if landing like this was as painful to Pokémon as it was to her. The skin of her arm where the attack had hit her looked very red and even a bit blistered. She would have killed for a bandage or simply a sweater. Also her she had landed on her leg quite painfully.
Nala jumped in front of her again, clearly a bit guily for having run away instead of protecting her master. Ambipom did something really strange. It jumped toward Nala, but one of its tails was electric and one of them was on fire. A combination elemental punch. Nala tried to avoid the tails as she tackled him. Luckily for her the tail on fire was avoided. Not so lucky was that she got hit in the side with a thunder punch.
The most creepy part, as Liliana only just noticed, was that even though the eyes had a frenzied glare in them, the mouth still had a psycho smile. The Pokémon appeared to be out of his very mind. Nala recovered quickly from the electricity that had gone through her body. She watched Ambipom wearily, waiting for him to do something. The whole rage thing seemed to be tiring Ambipom, he was breathing heavily. But the rage never left his eyes. He jumped up, clearly about to slam both his tails into Liliana with an iron tail but Nala once again hit him in the side and sent him smashing against the wall.
Another revelation for Lili's. Ambipom was mostly aiming for her. Even with Nala in front of him, he only hit her when she got in the way. This did two things to her. It frightened her, a powerful Pokémon was trying to kill her. Worse, her powerful and morphed Pokémon was trying to kill her. But it also enraged her. How dare he, Abu, act this way? She taught him better than that. And even though she'd only obtained him that day, it still made her mad. Not being fond of her was one thing, but this.
"Abu!" She yelled at him. She walked over, in a slight limp, and got in his face. "What are you thinking acting like that?! You might be some enraged Pokémon in a strange experiment of those R guys. But you're still my enraged Pokémon in a strange experiment! Stop this at once!" She was yelling at him. At first he looked mad, she half in half expected him to last out at her and kill her. But his expression softened, and suddenly he shrank back to Abu. Good old purple Abu. She almost squished him as she hugged him.
"I swear, I am never letting you evolve into an Ambipom! Never!" Abu seemed to be glad he was back to normal too. Nala was the only one that looked at him with suspicion. As if she expected him to lash out at me again. Liliana smiled at her to make her see it was okay, but she wasn't buying it.
With both of her Pokémon in tow she limped toward the exit. The light and warmth were wonderful, just liked it was wonderful to be out of that damned cave. This feeling of relief did not last very long. There was shouting and commotion. Liliana walked with the crowd as quickly as she could with her limp. What she saw was not a happy sight.
Five people were carrying a body. A body with the familiar green hair and little goatee. No scowl was on his face this time. Bugsy. She found she couldn't move. All she could do was stare as the body was brought into the Ilex forest.
