Chapter 1 – A New World
Hello fan fiction fanatics, this is William Sloan, and it would be my distinct privilege to introduce you do my first story. Please, I would really like some ideas from you guys. I'm writing in an Original Character, and I want to know if you want a ship with Erza or Cana. I'll probably do Erza because of the fact that it can be extremely funny. I'm open to reviews and criticism, but keep in mind that I'm a little sensitive to that, so yeah. I would like to thanks Alpha Dragonis and Insane Dominator for giving me the inspiration behind this. This will be a Pokémon and Fairy Tail crossover, and no, Ash will not be in this. No whining please. I don't own Pokémon or Fairy Tail. They belong to Satoshi Tajiri, Nintendo, and Hiro Mashima.
Let's Begin
It was a peaceful day in Lumiose City. The hustle and bustle of this city wasn't without its charm, as it was home to many different businesses and people alike with little Starly and Fletching chirping and flying around ever so gracefully. One of this people, who never knew that his world was about to change, was a 17-year-old trainer by the name of Rick Thyst. He wore verily simple clothes, which were a long sleeved black shirt and black sweatpants with two white lines down the sides and wore simple black shoes. His skin was a normal shade of white and had messy brown hair. The hair wasn't long at all, as it barely covered his forehead. Around his shoulder was a simple massager bag. The massager bag was red with a black strap. Around his neck was a small piece of Amethyst. At a café, Rick was simply enjoying a hot chocolate and a chocolate chip bagel. His partners was next to him, a small blue quadruped Pokémon with fin extending from his head, but the big identifying mark were the orange "gills" on the side of his head; a Mudkip named Swampy. The other was close to looking like a smaller Arceus, but had a helmet similar to a gladiator helmet. Its head was similar to a gladiator helmet. It was black in color and had green reaching up and stopped around half way up his leg. It had a tailfin, of all things, outlined in blue with light gray webbing. It's Alexander, Rick's Silvally. After two long years adventuring in the Alola region and finally deciding to live life under the Kalos region sun, Rick still didn't have Swampy evolve, but still had a Mega Ring, and a Swampertite that are suppose to be for when the day comes. He didn't want to make Pokémon evolve, but rather the Pokémon evolve when they wanted to. It's been his philosophy to this very day. He had four other Pokémon that were fully evolved, excluding Alexander, and had even more Pokémon than that. He wasn't worried about Swampy in the slightest.
After Rick had finished his food and paid for the meal and returned Alexander to his Poké Ball, he and Swampy, who was riding on his shoulder, had decided to do some more sightseeing around town. They had continued to walk until Rick saw something that had caught his attention. He had only saw it for a second, but it was unmistakable. He had thought a Pokémon go into the alleyway. He was surprised that no one else had seen what he had seen, but then again he wasn't. He and Swampy exchanged glances with each other, wondering if they should followed it, and they both knew what they had to do. Without a second thought, Rick made a dash for the alleyway the came face-to-face with what the mysterious creature was. It was a floating Pokémon whose top of the head was a bright yellow. Its eyes were closed and there was a red stone embedded in the forehead. Rick looked on with eyes full of wonderment and excitement, while at the same time, his eyes also had a little bit of fear in his eyes, because he knew what it was in front of him. The Pokémon was an Uxie.
"Are you okay?" Rick had asked the Uxie. Uxie had given him no answer, but instead asked him a question in the most calming voice imaginable "Are you Rick Thyst?" Rick was curious to why the Pokémon wanted to know his name, so he answer truthfully "Yes, that would be me. Who would be asking?"
Uxie mentally face palmed itself, but quickly composed itself before Rick could find out. "Please, heed my beckoning call Rick Thyst, we need your help." Before Rick could answer with a 'we?', a flash of light appeared in front of his eyes. Naturally, Rick and Swampy covered their eyes and when they opened them again they came to realize that they were in Kalos anymore. Instead, they realized that they were in space. Both of them were holding their breaths until they heard a voice echo all around them "You can breathe, Rick and Swampy Thyst."
They both took the deepest breaths they could and then looked around with the utmost curiosity and Rick finally broke the silence by asking Swampy, "Swampy, where are we?" And to Rick's surprise, he heard Swampy talk "I thought you knew." And then and there, two separate voids appeared and what came out are two equally large and terrifying Pokémon. One of them was a bipedal Pokémon that was white in color with trace amounts of pink all over his body reaching down to his tail and on both sides of its arms were pink colored pearls that glistened like rubies. The other was a quadruped Pokémon that was blue in color and had white markings all over its body and its tail had two blue lines on each side of its body and it had an arch that had five "spikes" coming out. What caught Rick's eyes was the diamond on its chest.
Rick finally again broke the silence screaming, "All right, I confess. I don't know how to start a fire, so I use Chandelure's fire. I was the one who step on Swampy's tongue with a muddy shoe." All Swampy could do was gag a little and give Rick an angry stare. The white dragon said to him "While that was slightly amusing and a little gross, that's not what why summoned you here, Rick" Rick was shocked a bit and wondered "How does he know my name?", but instead asked "Who are you guys?"
"I'm am Palkia." Said the pearl dragon, "And to my side is Dialga." The diamond dragon only nodded his head slightly. Rick had remembered hearing stories of Palkia and Dialga. Legends said that they were the Pokémon that governed space and time. But what did they want with him? What made Rick important?
"Not much of a talker is he?" Swampy asked with a sense of fear in is voice.
"Not entirely the case, young Swampy." Dialga said.
Rick had finally had it, and asked "Why are we here?"
All Palkia could was look at him with a grim look in its eyes and then in front of Palkia, appeared three Pokémon, including the Uxie from before. The other two looked a lot like Uxie, but looked slightly different, with one with blue where the yellow would be and the other had pink where the yellow would be. The other two were Azelf and Mesprit.
It was Uxie who answered Rick's question. "It is Arceus. He's dying. We need you do take on the power of his Plates."
Rick had also heard stories of Arceus and its Plates. The legend goes that Arceus's plates created the world, but he wasn't sure about it. "And this relates to me because?"
Dialga then bellowed, "YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN BEAR THE POWER OF THESE PLATE! DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT AN HONOR THIS IS!"?
"Okay, touchy subject." Rex grumbled under his breath, "Would I get them all now?"
"No." Palkia said, "We'll give you five of them to start with. The rest will either be found or can be unlocked on your own. We need you to decide which five you want to start with."
Rick thought about it for a while and then finally gave his answer. "Okay. I choose Fire, Water, Flying, Fighting, and…" he never got to figuring out the fifth one, so he rushed the answer, "Ghost." At that moment, five colored orbs, fire, blue, sky blue (get it?), maroon, and dark purple surrounded Rick. He felt the power of burning fire, the coldness and freshness of water, the air of Earth, and willpower of the fiercest fighters. He felt the power of 1,000 armies flood his body, and felt sorrow and death, by the hands of the Spooky Plate.
"So, are the plates here in Kalos somewhere?" Rick asked. Palkia replied. "We'll be sending to a different world. One world where you and your new powers will fit in easily." It then proceed to clear its throat and said, " In a land far, far away, lies the kingdom of Fiore, a small, peaceful nation of seventeen million, and a place filled with magic. Found in every home, bought and sold in every marketplace, for most, magic is merely a tool, a mundane part of everyday life. For some, however, magic is an art, and they have devoted their lives to its practice. These are the wizards. Banded together into magical guilds, they apply their skills in search of fame and fortune. Many guilds dot Fiore's landscape, but there is a particular guild that soars high above the rest, one where countless legends have been born. A guild that will continue create new legends, well into the future. Its name… is Fairy Tail."
After a long silence, Rick said. "What, no music? What kind of show is this?" Swampy even nodded his head in agreement, "I wasted two minutes listening to that, and I expect to get my money's worth."
Dialga bellowed "YOU WILL TAKE WHAT YOU GET AND YOU WILL LIKE IT! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR!" Rick and Swampy could only shake their heads in agreement, out of fear of what the Temporal Pokémon would do.
Palkia then said, "With the Plates at your disposal, you will have access to moves that correlate with the Plate in use. You can even use moves that can only be used by Legendries and can take on the form of Legendries, but be warned, as using a Legendary form uses more stamina can usual."
Rick then said and nodded with agreement at the same time, "Right, I'll…no." He then looked at Swampy, who then looked at his Trainer, as he finished his sentence, "We'll do our best." Swampy then said, with tears forming in his eyes, "You're right, I'll help you out when you need me. Partners stick together, until the very end, right?" Rick nodded at his partner, "Right." The Mud Fish said, fully agreeing with his Trainer.
Palkia then intervened before Dialga could send them off "We also noticed that you have more than 6 Pokémon. You can switch them out while in Fiore anytime you want. And, as a little gift from us to you…"
Palkia then shone a multicolored light and the item, or rather items, came to be in front of Rick, They appeared to be small discs that were odd in their own right. The discs then shone and went straight towards Alexander's Poké Ball. His ball shone a multitude of light before dying down.
Rick had a small, worried look on his face. He didn't know what to do, or rather what had happened. "What did you do to Alexander?"
Palkia replied, "Simply put, we gave Silvally the ability to change between his type without having to hold on to a Memory Drive. He can use the…uh…" The Legendary Pokémon had to think for a minute, until Rick helped by saying, "The RKS System?"
"Yes, that would be it. He'll also be able to use moves that correlate with the memory he's using, alongside the moves he already knows" Palkia said.
Dialga then said, "If you are finished, we are ready to send you to Fiore." Rex then stood up with Swampy on his shoulder and said, "Ready." Right after he said that, a giant Magic Seal appeared right his feet and a bright flash of light blinded the both of them. When they both blacked out, they were in Fiore.
Several Hours Later…
Rex and Swampy finally awoke and found themselves, of all places, at a train station. Many people were getting on and off the different trains, and it reminded Rick of when he went to the Unova region and visited Anville Town, which was know for its many railroads and old trains themselves. The sign said Hargeon Station. He then noticed a group of two people and cat…correction, a talking cat.
"Is he okay?" The conduction asked. The other man was lying face-first on the wood floor and he wasn't moving much and wasn't looking very well either. He had salmon pink hair and wore a sleeveless, gold trimmed, black waistcoat with white knee-length trousers, most likely because of the bands keeping the bottoms of the pants up. He also had a black wristband, black open-toed sandals and had an unusual scale-patterned scarf around his neck. His name is Natsu Dragneel.
"Aye. He's always like this." Rick was still nerding out about this, but it wasn't as bad as it was with Swampy. The cat actually reminds him of a male Meowstic, with the ears and the color of the fur being different. He had blue fur with an white underbelly and really big black eyes. His name is Happy.
Rex decided not to stick around and decided to find the nearest map of Hargeon, if not than at least Fiore. He didn't know where the nearest guild was, let alone a magic shop. "We better look around for a bit, huh Swampy?" Rex said to his Water-type partner. "Right." Swampy then looked to his right and saw something funny, "Hey Rick, check that out." Rick looked and saw Happy chasing after Natsu. Rick couldn't help but smile and continue walking.
It didn't take long for the Thyst brothers to find something off. They kept seeing girls running past them in droves of three and four, screaming about a 'Salamander'. Rick's sense of wonder got the best of him and he followed the girls and saw a relatively tall and thin guy, with mildly short, spikey hair jutting outwards. He had an oddly shaped X on his forehead. He wore a dark blue robe with a couple of rings on his finger. "Either the guy's a wizard, or he went through a lot of marriages." Swampy whispered to Rick.
In the center was a nervous blonde who was as about as giddy as Rex on a sugar high. Rex managed to push some girls out of the way and at the same time, Natsu, who somehow managed to get off the train, came bursting through the crowd with his 'cat' in tow. He kept saying "Igneel! It's m- You're not Igneel." At that moment, Natsu had his hands full with a bunch of girls who wanted to tear Natsu apart. The blonde snapped out of her dazed state during the 'melee'.
"The name's Salamander. Perhaps you've heard of me." Salamander was as confident as can be, and Rick just looked on with an unimpressed look.
"May I ask who the hell you are." Rick then had his hands full with the same problem that Natsu had; girls wanting to tear him apart.
"How rude!" "Salamander's famous!" Rick then interjected, "I JUST GOT HERE!"
"Ladies, I'm sure the kid didn't mean anything by it." Salamander said with the utmost confidence. He then proceeded to create a ball of fire and it faded into a box with his signature on it. "Here you go. Go show it off to your friends."
The girls, bar the blonde, Lucy, squealed like little pigs. "How generous." Rick started at the signature and said to Natsu, "You want it?", and then received a number of death stares. Natsu took a minute and then handed it back, and you know how that song and dance went; with Rick and Natsu beaten and tossed around like rag dolls.
Happy and Swampy both noted what just happened and said "It's not him." Rick then responded with "You don't said?" in a sarcastic manner. Salamander then took off and announced that he was having a party on his yacht. Lucy then walked over to Rick and Natsu while Swampy and Happy looked on.
Lucy took them to a restaurant as, as Rick guessed, as her way of saying thank you. Rick was as hungry as a Snorlax, but kept his food intake at a moderate rate, unlike Natsu and Happy, who were shoveling food into their stomachs like crazy.
"So let me sum this whole thing up, Lucy. Salamander was using Charm Rings, which were outlawed, to make the ladies fall head over heels for him, and our interruption managed to snap you out of it, and you're a Mage trying to find work in magical guilds?" Rick said, with a questionable look on his face.
Lucy smiled and said, "That's about it. It's hard to get into the more popular guilds, but I'm considered powerful in my line of Magic." "So, about this Igneel?"
Natsu then said something that neither one of them could hear, as his mouth was full of food. He then swallowed, and then repeated what he had said, "He's the name of the dragon I'm looking for." Both Lucy and Rick's jaws dropped when Natsu had finished the sentence. Rick was in shock, but then remembered that there are dragon types back home.
"You're joking right? They're hard to come by. Almost impossible, and besides, why would there be a dragon hanging around town?" Lucy pointed out.
Natsu and Happy both had faces that had a mix of shock and disappointment, but it was more shock than anything else.
"Huh. Never thought about it like that." Natsu finally admitted. Lucy then paid for the meal and Rick looked at the bill and saw the currency, Jewels. A little weird but seems appropriate. Rick then turned his head and saw Natsu, Happy, and Swampy, bowing in front of Lucy, which made both Lucy and Rick start sweating out of sheer nervousness.
"Thank you! Thank you for the meal!" The three of them said.
"Will you stop? You're embearassing us!" Lucy and Rick shouted, "Look, You helped me. So, I helped you." Lucy continued and then left.
A few moments later…
Lucy was then seen reading Sorcerer's Weekly on a park bench, with the fountain nearby spouting water that glistened in the sunlight.
"HAHA! The Fairy Tail guild went overboard again! Seven homes destroyed?!" She kept laughing as she flipped to the next page, which was the cover shots, with Mirajane in the picture again. "I wonder how you join? Do you have to apply or have an interview? Man, how I do love to join!"
"So, you want to join Fairy Tail, do you?" Out of the bushed came Salamander, with his usual cocky smirk plastered on his face.
"Salamander!" Lucy yelled slightly louder than she had wanted, but soon regained her composure, "Your Charm Spell won't work on me. I know it's weakness: awareness."
"Well, someone's studying." 'Salamander' said.
Lucy let out a sigh, pinching her index and middle finger on the bridge of her nose, "What do you want?"
"You want to join Fairy Tail, right?" Salamander said, almost in a seductive way. Rick looked on, hiding in the bush, covering Swampy's mouth. Rick looked on, hiding in the bush, wondering if this guy was in fact a part of Fairy Tail. He thought it would be best if he stayed low until he left.
Lucy eyes lit up like fireworks when 'Salamander' finished his question. Rick had a gut feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. Lucy was squealing like a high school girl that was voted 'Prom Queen'. 'Huh, that was easier than I thought it would be.' He took off just as the infatuation wore off, leaving Lucy upset that she was tricked, but she didn't mull over of to long. She ran off to go find something decent to wear, leaving Rick all alone near the fountain.
Rick went over to the fountain to check if his appearance had changed. The skin color was about the same, only slightly dark, like the color of mocha with a hint of brown. His hair was silver/brown in color and was spiky, the tips slicked back oh-so slightly. Oddly enough, one eye was blue, like the Adamant Orb, and the other was light pink, like the Lustrous Orb. His clothes were the same, but now had a black long coat to the mix. The edges were a darker shade than the rest of it, and it bears a hot pink heart with a white design of double swords crossed in an X-formation in the right side, right near his actual heart.
"Alright, then." Rick said, looking at his new clothes, and then realizing the task at hand, he looked at Swampy and said, "Let's go see what this guy's all about."
All Swampy did was nod in agreement and they were off.
Nightfall, hours later…
The stars were shining bright in the Fiore sky when the yacht had left the port. Natsu and Happy were watching it leave, which made Natsu remind himself of his motion sickness.
"Calm down. It's not like the two of you are boarding anytime soon." The two turned around and saw Rick, with Swampy on his shoulder.
"Hey, where did you run off to?" Natsu said, with a hint of curiosity.
"We just did some sightseeing, trying to find out where the Fairy Tail guild is." Rick said.
Right when he said 'Fairy Tail', Rick had gotten Natsu's attention and he immediately looked back at the yacht, causing him to gag a little.
There were some ladies talking about 'Salamander' just barely out of earshot. Rick could make out most of it, but he saw Natsu look back at the yacht, meaning it probably involves that Salamander guy and Fairy Tail.
Swampy looked out towards the sea where the yacht was and said, while at the same time shocking Natsu and Happy, "Something's telling me that we should get on board that boat."
Not letting Natsu and Happy say anything about what just happened, Rick started to change into his Sky Plate Form. The coat still had the heart and the double swords, but was a light blue, with an even lighter blue trimming. His pants were cloud white and his shoes were gray, like storm clouds. He even had wings, which were the same as his pants color. What was even weirder was that the amethyst has even changed to be a diamond, which was the same size and shape as the amethyst there was beforehand, "Who's ready to crash a party?"
Lucy had her hands full at the moments as there were bodyguards trying to surround her. She tried to reach for her gate keys, but Salamander got her off guard, and proceeded to toss them out the window into the sea. The next thing you know, someone comes in, crashing through the ceiling, which turned out to be Natsu and Swampy, ready to dish out some pain.
Natsu then proceeded to get motion sick, making everyone, including the opposition sweatdrop.
"You fricking idiot, Natsu. You had one job!" said Rick, still clad in his Sky Plate form, just outside the ship.
Lucy saw Rick and thought to herself, "Is that the same person? No, it couldn't…" She never got to finish that thought as Happy already had her wrapped around his tail and they were flying off. "Will Natsu be okay?"
Happy said back, "Don't worry. Rick and his friend's got him covered."
Lucy was in a little shock, "I knew it! It really is them!"
Salamander was obviously getting mad, "Get them! We can't have them go and report us to the Council!"
Before the enemy could fire, they were hit by a light blue energy beam. When it did hit, the mages were seen frozen solid.
Salamander's attitude changed fast. "Who did that?!" You could tell he was getting angry.
"Oh, so sorry. I wasn't aiming for them." He turned his head to see Swampy, who froze the bodyguards with his Ice Beam.
All Salamander could do was smile, "You're saying that you were the one who froze them? How? I didn't feel any magic coming from that?"
All Swampy could do was smile a bit, relishing over the fact that he would have to prove a point. "You can't underestimate your opponent. Just because they're smaller, doesn't mean they can't kick your sorry ass to oblivion." He opened his mouth as wide as could open and a small mirror could be seen starting to form. "Hydro Pump!" A large torrent of water came rushing out towards Salamander causing the boat to shake a little.
"Stop! Please! I'm gonna lose it for sure if you keep it up!" Swampy stopped. He knew it was Natsu who said that. Yet, he could help but feel sorry for the man. He decided to leave this to Rick and left to find Happy.
"Let's give this new form a spin. Air Cutter!" Rick shouted. His wings crossed together and quickly came apart and released a wave of compressed air, which barely nicked 'Salamander', "Let's hope that Swampy can be of some help…"
With Swampy, Lucy, and Happy
Happy had Lucy with him and then his Magic ran out, and they proceeded to fall into the water. Lucy found Swampy, with the keys around his head fin, and said, "I believe these belong to you?"
"My Gate Keys!" Lucy said, with a bit of relief in her voice. She wasn't even thinking about the weird creature talking "I'll repay you later." She took out a key and inserted it into the water. "Open, Gate of the Water Bearer: Aquarius!" The key turned and out came a mermaid. Her hair, eyes, and tail were all blue. "I need you to push the ship back into the port!" Lucy commanded.
"Tsk." Aquarius grunted, her voice clearly indicating she would rather be anywhere but here.
"I called you here to help, not to give me attitude!" Lucy yelled.
"Something tells me you shouldn't be yelling like that, Lucy." Swampy said. All the three of them got was a death glare from the Zodiac sprit.
"If you so much as misplace my key, you're dead! Got it!?" The blue-haired sprit threatened.
"Y-yes, ma'am. It won't happen again." The three said, shivering in fear. Lucy knew that the sprit would make good on her promise if it happened again, and Swampy just didn't want to die young. Aquarius then summoned a giant wave from what Swampy thought was a vase, and had the ship be rushed towards the shore.
The men that were onboard the ship were screaming, and Rick thought to himself, "Don't turn around, don't turn around, do not turn around!" His curious nature got the better of him and he reluctantly turned around, seeing the tidal wave rushing towards him. "Mother…" was the only thing he could say before the tidal wave swallowed the ship, and by extension, Lucy, Happy, and Swampy, onto the shoreline. The captive girls ran off during the mass hysteria.
Lucy and Swampy were on the shore. Swampy was shaking himself off when Aquarius came closer.
"You didn't have to take us with you!" Lucy snapped. Swampy was looking Aquarius in the eye while Lucy gave the sprit a piece of her mind.
"Just be lucky I wasn't aiming for you in the first place." The mermaid said. She noticed Swampy looking at her, "What are you looking at, pipsqueak?"
"That was incredible! I could never pull something like that off!" The Mud Fish Pokémon said, his eyes sparkling with wonder.
Aquarius just looked at him, trying to process what he had said. "Hmpg! Just mind your own business for now on!" She then turned to Lucy, "And don't bother calling me. I'm going on vacation with my boyfriend, and he's hot." Aquarius said before going back to the Celestial World.
Rick was still in his Sky Plate Form, fling over what used to be the ship, "Oh God, talk about maximum overkill!" He laughed a bit from his little joke and decided to land on the ground next to where Natsu just so happen to end up.
"What the hell just happened?," 'Salamander' said, overlooking the damage to the ship. He saw Rick change into his standard clothing. "And who the hell are you?"
"You can call me your worse nightmare." Rick said, with a bit of confidence in his voice. He saw Swampy run over to him, rubbing his head up against his leg. Rick bent down and rubbed the back of Swampy's head, "And this is Swampy."
"Hello, good sir." Swampy replied, bowing his head a little bit, "I take it that you didn't learn your lesson yet." Swampy got into a battle position, he then looked up to Rick, "Allow me to finish him off?"
Rick saw Natsu start to get up and saw that he had a vengeful look in his eyes, "Let Natsu help. I get the feeling he wants to give this creep a piece of his mind."
"Understood." Swampy said. He ran next to Natsu who gave him a questionable look. "What are you?" Natsu asked.
"What I am is someone who's helping you. Focus on the enemy right now!" Swampy barked back. He didn't want to, but he knew that it would help.
Natsu looked back at 'Salamander' and asked him, with a slight annoyed sound mixed into his voice, "You said you are a member of Fairy Tail? THEN WHY HAVEN'T I EVEN SEEN YOU BEFORE!?" He then proceeded to show his Fairy Tail, which was located on his shoulder and was a red color. You could feel heat emanating from him, meaning that he was getting serious.
"Bora, that's him!" a henchman said, his head apparently thawed out from the Ice Beam.
"Don't call me that, you idiot!" Bora said
"I remember now. That's Bora the Prominence. I heard a rumor that he got kicked out his guild due to bad behavior." Happy said, with an angry face
Rick was getting pissed off too, because this smuck of a guy was using girls for his own advantage "You know something? I find it sick when people use other people for their own personal gain, but when it's a man using a girl to their own advantage, that's when I really draw the line." He changed into the Flame Plate. His long coat became a flame red, with a flame decal coming from the bottom of the coat. The heart and the sword pattern remained (The heart and the crossed sword pattern never change, just for reference)
Bora was shocked beyond any limit, "What kind of Requip is that?!"
'So they think of it as a Requip here? Weird, but it makes sense. I wonder if it would be the same concept with Alexander?" Rick thought "You're facing the three of us now. Think you can handle all three of us?"
"Not a problem" Bora said, with a smirk. "Prominence Typhoon!" He spread his arms apart, sending spiraling flames towards Natsu, Rick, and Swampy.
"Your funeral. Swampy, Hydro Pump!" Swampy's mouth open and a mirror of water appeared. A rush of water came straight from the mirror. It made contact, completely nullifying the Promience Typhoon.
"Alright, Natsu. Your turn." Rick said.
"Happy to oblige." Natsu said. He turned to face Bora. "I don't care if you're good or evil, but you're crossed the line buddy. TIME TO SHOW YOU WHAT A FAIRY TAIL WIZARD CAN DO!" Natsu made a beeline for Bora.
"Prominence Typhoon!" Bora conjured up more flames and sent them towards Natsu and Swampy. Swampy was bracing for the impact, while Natsu didn't even flinch. In fact, the attack never even hit Swampy. The Mud Fish Pokémon looked up and saw that Natsu was eating the fire.
'Whoa, that's nuts!' Swampy thought to himself, 'Maybe it's a spell or something?'
That caught Bora off guard as he was screaming like a little girl "Red Shower!" He summoned his Magic Seal, which unleashed a multitude of little circle covered in purple flames. Natsu began running towards him, but hadn't a need to worry about the flames.
"Ice Beam!" Swampy yelled, letting loose a light blue beam of energy. The Ice Beam hit the Red Shower, not only putting most of the Red Shower out, but also scoring a direct hit on Bora. The rest of the Red Shower hit Natsu, but it didn't hurt much, if at all.
"FYI, your fire tasted awful." Natsu said, commenting on the fire that Bora had just used. A Magic Seal appeared in front of him and he took a deep breath. "Fire Dragon Roar!" He then unleashed a massive amount of fire, and it was coming in fast. Bora managed to dodge the attack, but he could still feel the intensity.
Bora came running towards the three of them and Rick walked up to Natsu and Swampy and smirked a little.
"How about we finish this guy off, what do you say?" The fire-type user asked.
"Hm, okay" Swampy said, fully agreeing with his trainer.
"I'm all for it." Natsu said. He then formed another quick seal covered himself in flames and Rick did the exact same thing. Natsu saw this and was taken off guard, but was still focused on the task at hand. Swampy was busy channeling energy through his entire body.
"Fire Dragon Sword Horn!" Natsu yelled.
"Flame Charge!" Rick roared.
"Take Down!" Swampy shouted.
Natsu and Rick both made a mad dash for Bora. Swampy was right behind them, with his body covered in a golden aura. The three of them scored a hit on Bora, hitting him right in the gut. Bora went flying and actually managed to hit a belltower right on the bell, making it ring loudly throughout the area. They skid back a bit, and Swampy was covered in little sparks, signaling the recoil aftereffects of using Take Down.
With everything said and done, Natsu, Rick, and Swampy met up with Happy and Lucy. Rick returned to his normal form, meaning his attire went back to being the Black shirt, black pants, and the long coat returned to being black as well. The amethyst was back as well. Rick felt happy that it was back. It was the only thing, besides his messenger back, that he had brought with him and his Pokémon. He found the bag on the ground not too far away and picked it up.
'Huh, it must have came off during the battle with Bora.' He thought. He inspected the bag and sighed a sigh of relief, 'At least the bag isn't damaged.' He slid the bag over his shoulder and ran back to Natsu and the others
"Did I do good?" Swampy asked, looking up to this Trainer.
Rick bent down and gave Swampy a comforting rub behind his head, "You did great." He took out Swampy's Poké Ball and enlarged it, "Now, take a good rest. I think you earned it." The Poké Ball Shot out a red beam that, when it hit Swampy, it returned him to his Poké Ball.
Rick turned to Natsu, Happy, and Lucy, who were shocked to say the least. They proceeded to start talking over each other.
"What was that thing?" "Was that a Requip?" "I've never seen anything like that before."
Before Rick could answer any questions from them, he heard many footsteps behind Natsu, Lucy, and Happy. The footsteps were coming from people, and they were wearing the exact same clothing, and they were equipped spears in one hand and a shield in the other.
"The army?" Lucy asked, but before she got an answer, she felt someone grab her arm and start dragging her off, along side a certain mocha-skinned guy.
"Where are we going?" Lucy asked.
"I don't know." Rick replied.
"Well, Lucy wants to join Fairy Tail, and Rick had told me that he was looking for it too, right? Let's go!" Natsu replied.
Rick and Lucy couldn't believe what they were hearing. They were going to Fairy Tail guild. Rick was also happy, but he couldn't forget what he was supposed to do. Arceus is dying, and he's the only one who can help.
With everything that has happened, Rick and Swampy find themselves in a different world, with a different mission: to find the remaining thirteen Plates, save Arceus, and the universe along with it. With Bora out of the way, and new friends made, Rick finds his way to Fairy Tail. What secrets will be uncovered? What new powers await? The answer to come, as theit journey under the Fiore sun begins.
Well, that's one chapter down. Thanks for reading and whatnot. I actually need some help. I have three empty slots for Rick's team. If you could help me out with this, that would be sweet.
