Zorro followed Elysia into a dark room inside the base. They were alone.
"Elysia-" Zorro wanted to speak but suddenly some 'thing' grabbed Elysia from behind and pressed a napkin onto her nose. She went unconsious in three seconds. The pokemon walked towards Zorro, revealing himself, with his red pincer stroking Elysia's neck softly. It was a Scizor, and behind it stood another Scizor that looked exactly like him. Zorro knew who they were and growled.
"Hades and Ares (greek gods: the god of death and the god of war). The bounty hunter brothers. Last time I saw you, you were humiliated and was banned from the Dark Kingdom." Zorro spoke, "What do you want?!"
"Your death, Zorro." Hades, the one who was holding Elysia snickered, "You stole all our customers in the Dark Kingdom. They want you instead."
"Well that's because my performance is always better than yours-" Zorro stated out, but when he saw Hades' pincer tensed, he stopped, "What did you do to her?!"
"Ammonia-poison solution." Ares answered, "We stole your formula."
"Why you-" Zorro walked towards the two with a shadow ball in his hands.
"Stay right there, Zorro." Hades smiled evily, "One more move, and I'll break her neck. Choose. You, or her."
Zorro stopped instantly, then sighed, "Give me your best shot."
Hades signaled his brother to go and Ares slashed Zorro with X-Scizzor. Zorro flinched, but he didn't fight back at all. Amused, Ares jabbed him again and again with his bullet punch, then pushed him away with his last attack. Zorro struggled to get up, but before he could do it Ares punched him again. He coughed, and blood came out from his mouth.
"Where's the all-mighty Zorro now?" Ares laughed as he pinned him down onto the floor and strangled him with his pincers, tighter and tighter every second. Zorro could't breathe, but he didn't intend to do so.
He turned his head slowly as he strangled him and looked at Elysia, still in Hades' hands, "L-Let her go."
"Not yet." Hades smiled, "Ares, finish him already."
Ares' pincers tensed and Zorro couldn't breathe anymore.
"E...ly...sia..." Zorro struggled for a while, then closed his eyes and stopped moving.
"Our work here is done. Now with our biggest competitor gone, the Dark Kingdom will have to choose us instead." Hades pushed the Pachirisu on the ground and left with Ares. They locked the door, leaving them alone in the dark.
