Author's Note: This may be the last story I start since I'll have to turn in my school laptop. Hopefully, I'll get my own laptop when I start college and be able to write and post more. Anyway, here's a Hero 108 and pokemon crossover. I only own Marie.
Chapter One; Her Return
It had been some time in Hidden Kingdom since Twin Masters last spread his chaos. Highroller didn't seem to have a courage to attack Big Green which gave the residents some relief. But they didn't know an old friend would be coming to visit. Her cloak flew and flapped in the wind, red and white colored balls were strapped to her belt. She smiled at the turtle shell shaped hideout, a few Wingulls resting on the top. No matter what world she went to…it always seemed like pokemon followed her. Even to Hidden Kingdom. They never bothered anyone, the heros of Big Green loved the pokemon just as much as they loved the animals that joined.
As she walked up to the shore, a large blue turtle popped out of the water. Guns were attached to his shell. "Blast…"
"Hello Blastoise. Do you mind if I ask you for a ride?" the cloaked woman asked. Blastoise seemed to smile and happily obliged, allowing her to sit on his back. The water starter swam into the door that led into Big Green. She was greeted by the Air Force members.
"Welcome back Marie." Rosefinch smiled at her. The woman pulled the hood of the cloak off and smiled. She had curly brown hair, pulled into a ponytail and blue and black glasses resting on her nose. "Good to see you Rosefinch. Apetruly know I'm here?"
"Not yet." Master Chou answered. "But we'll alert him." He assured as a turtle rode up on treads. "Alert Commander Apetruly of Marie's arrival." He ordered. The turtle rode off again.
"Follow me Marie, I'll take you to the cafeteria." Burly offered. Marie nodded
"Thank you Burly." She smiled and followed.
Apetruly was busy stacking bananas up just like a house of cards when the turtle entered his room.
"Marie here!" it squeaked causing Apetruly to jump in shock with a yelp.
"Oh good heavens!"
"Marie here!" the turtle announced again riding up to the commander's head.
"Marie?" Apetruly asked a bit dizzily. Then the realization hit him, harder than the fall did. "Oh! Marie! Where is she?"
"Lunchroom!" the turtle squeaked.
"Oh joy! I must go see her." Apetruly happily hopped out of his door heading to the cafeteria to talk with the girl.
Marie sat in the cafeteria, she had her charizard out of his pokeball, stroking his snout as he rumbled happily. Ox King and Egret Queen brought her a bowl of soup to eat. She smiled as them and bowed her head gratefully. "Thank you." She said. Both animals bowed to her and walked off. As Marie was about to take a bite, her name was called and she was hug-tackled by a familiar white bunny. She chuckled putting her bowl down and returning the hug.
"Hello Jumpy!"
"Marie come to visit!" Jumpy happily cheered.
"Of course I did. You should know by now I come to visit you guys whenever I can. Where's the rest of first squad?"
"First Squad training, Jumpy get water." The former rabbit king explained.
"Well, when Apetruly gets here, I'll happily head down with you." Marie smiled.
"Jumpy wait with Marie and Smokey!" the bunny smiled. Marie chuckled.
"I'm sure Smokes will enjoy the attention while I'm eating." She said as Jumpy pet the fire type. Smokes rumbled happily at the rabbit. While her Charizard got attention from Jumpy, Marie quietly sipped her soup, enjoying the taste and heat. Apetruly came up to her.
"Marie! It's so good to see you again!" he exclaimed ecstatically. Marie smiled putting the almost empty bowl down again.
"You too commander. I hope all is well in Hidden Kingdom."
"It has been abnormally quiet lately…" he told her but Marie shrugged at it, remaining optimistic.
"No news is good news right?"
"I suppose so…hopefully Highroller will stay that way."
"If he does try anything, I'll be here to help." Marie smiled.
"I am certainly grateful for that Marie." Apetruly bowed.
"I'll happily catch up with you later commander, I promised Jumpy that I'd go with him to see the rest of first squad." Marie told him then. Apetruly nodded.
"Certainly. Come to me if you need anything Marie."
"Thank you commander." Marie smiled. Jumpy took her hand then to take her to the training room, Smokes trudged behind.
"Marie come visit!" Jumpy announced getting his teams attention.
"Oh Marie!" Sonia squealed happily going to hug her. Marie laughed and returned it.
"I missed you Sonia, I hope you're good?"
"Better since Twin Masters is gone and Highroller pretty quiet." Sonia smiled. Yaksha hopped off Sonia's head and wrapped his arms around Marie in a hug, chirring happily.
"Of course I missed you too Yaksha." Marie chuckled hugging him back. She bowed to Mr. Nohands then. "I apologize for interrupting Mr. Nohands."
"Nonsense Marie. You've nothing to apologize for! It's always good times when you come to Big Green. We're glad to have you here."
"And Smokey too!" Sonia said petting the fire dragon who started purring.
"Yea, that dragon is always good for a fireball!" Mighty Ray said, earning a smack from Sonia's tongue.
"You should know by now that pokemon are NOT tools Banana Brain! Especially not someone as sweet and lovable as Smokey." Sonia cooed rubbing behind Smokes' left horn. Marie chuckled.
"Thanks Sonia, I'm glad you appreciate Smokey so much."
"You and your pokemon are our friends and greatest allies Marie. We couldn't be any happier to have you apart of our cause." Lin Chung smiled. Marie returned it.
"How about we head outside?" she suggested then. "I got a few new partners I want you all to meet."
"That sounds great!" Mighty Ray cheered.
"New friends!" chittered Jumpy.
"I will be happy to draw them and capture their magnificence." Lin Chung smiled.
"OOHH! I hope they're super adorable!" Sonia squealed. Marie laughed at her friends' excitement and enthusiasm as they all went outside.
Marie threw up the five pokeballs. "Come on out everyone!" she called. Out popped the creatures. There was a mightyena, a chatot, a grovyle, a houndoom and a froakie. Smokes made six.
"Guys, you remember Saber, but this is Clef, Twigs, Dover and Frubble.
"Aww! This one is sooooo CUUUUTE!" Sonia cried, picking up Frubble and hugging it.
"Frubble is a Froakie. He's a water type starter in the Kalos region." Marie explained. Jumpy started petting Saber.
"Saber good pokemon!" Jumpy said, getting a happy bark from the dark type. Lin Chung sat in front of Twigs with his sketchbook. "Twigs is truly a regal pokemon. I simply must sketch him." He said. Twigs gave a tilt of his head in question but he stayed still for the sketching warrior.
"This one looks almost as mighty as me!" Mighty Ray grinned.
"Hound!" Dover barked. Clef sat on Marie's shoulder who then stroked under his beak with a smile. Unknown to the group, the Zebra Brothers were hiding in the bushes close by.
"Marie's back again." Sparky Black stated. "And she has her pokemon."
"We should report this to Master Highroller." Sparky White said.
"Good idea!" his brother praised as they formed into their zebra wheel and rolled back to East Citadel.
"MASTER!" Highroller was jumping rope when the zebras called for him, throwing him off his game and getting tangled. He growled in annoyance. "How DARE you interrupt me! This BETTER be important or I'm turning the BOTH of you into DEAD DONKEY MEAT!" He threatened. The zebras gulped untangling their master from the rope.
"It's Marie, Master! She's come back to Hidden Kingdom!" Sparky Black explained.
"And she has her pokemon with her." Sparky White added.
"Marie?! That annoying, shapeshifting, pokemon training brat! Wait…this is PERFECT!" Highroller laughed gleefully. The zebras looked at each other in confusion.
"It is?"
"Listen up zebras, tonight, I want you to sneak into Big Green and steal Marie's pokemon! We'll lure her and first squad here and destroy them for good!"
"Are you sure that's a good idea Master?" Sparky White asked nervously.
"Listen you broomheads! Marie won't do anything to us if she wants her precious pokemon partners safe and if we have them, we will finally RULE HIDDEN KINGDOM!"
"Ohhhh…HOORAY! ALL HAIL HIGHROLLER!"
"Now go get prepared!"
"You can count on us Master!" and they rolled off. Highroller cackled.
"I have right where I want you…Big Green…" he laughed.
