Chapter 3: To Find Another Module

(At the Poke'mon school)

Sonic, Ash, Tails, Amy, Silver, and Blaze were explaining Lillie's kidnapping to Mallow, Lana, Kiawe, and Sophocles, and Rotom'dex.

Kiawe- That sure is one pickle you've got on your hands.

Mallow- And just when she recently recovered from all the horrors of one scientist.

Sonic- Huh…?

Ash- You see, Sonic, not that long after our "missing children" crisis, I found Nabby and got the attention of the Aether Foundation, run by Lillie's mother. Turns out one of their employees, a scientist named Faba, was conducting experiments to summon creatures known as Ultra Beast and was trying to cover up his actions by trying to erase Lillie's memories. Luckily, with the help of Lillie's brother, Gladion, we were able to save Lillie and Nabby. However, Faba has yet to be apprehended.

Silver- Poor Lillie. Sounds like she went through a lot recently.

Lana- She has.

Sophocles- And I can't believe you destroyed a rare machine part like that. Inventers like Clemont or myself would've killed for a module-237XB. I'll bet the tech company it originally belonged to wasn't happy either.

Tails- They weren't. In fact, Sonic had me do all the work to making it up for the 2 billion dollar part he smashed!

Sonic- Hey, I said I'd make it up to you, Tails!

While Sonic was distracted, Nabby reached into Sonic's pockets and pulled out a shiny red gem.

Sonic- What the?! Give me that!

Sonic quickly swiped the Chaos Emerald back from Nabby and Nabby began to cry like crazy as everyone held their ears.

Sonic- Damn! Nabby's crying is making my ears bleed!

Ash- Hold on, I got just the solution!

Ash pulled out a dispenser of star candy and fed some to Nabby to make it stop crying.

Mallow- Sonic, why did you make Nabby cry like that?!

Sonic- He grabbed one of my Chaos Emeralds, and they happen to be more dangerous than you could possibly imagine! In fact, just one Chaos Emerald hold more power than Pit's goddess, Palutena. And it's not something that a child should be playing around with. These emeralds are also what allow me, Shadow, and Silver to transform into our super forms. So I really need all seven Chaos Emeralds to stay with me.

Blaze- Back to the matter at hand. We still need to find another module-237XB in three days to save Lillie.

Ash- Blaze is right. But where to start looking for such a rare part.

Rotom'dex- I could do a search for anything in my database.

(Just outside the Poke'mon school)

Jessie, James, and Meowth were inside their malasada truck parked outside the entrance of the school. However, instead of cooking their malasadas, they were listening on Ash and Sonic were talking about through some spy gear.

James- Looks like that wise ass hedgehog is with the twerp.

Jessie- Out of all the other members of the Super Mario Brothers' Team, Sonic's my least favorite next to the twerp.

Meowth- Is it because he literally blew us out of our underwear back at the Mushroom Kingdom or because he had that huge purple cat use us as squeeze toys until our eyeballs popped out?

Jessie- That and because he's always rude to us with his trash talking jokes and his obnoxious attitude!

Meowth- Obnoxious or not, I like that bling he's carrying around.

James- What did he say they were again? Chaos Emeralds?

Jessie- Oh right, I noticed that sparkling gem he has. Didn't he say he had a total of seven of them?

Meowth- What did he mean by a super form?

Jessie- Who cares really? I say we snag those seven chaos beauties.

James- Not to mention Pikachu and this machine part they're looking for valued at 2 billion dollars.

Then Jessie's Wobbuffet appeared out of nowhere and gave a solute.

Wobbuffet- Wobbuffet!

(Back in the class room of the Poke'mon school)

Rotom'dex finally finished searching and found something.

Rotom'dex- Ok, I've got good news and bad news. The good news is I've located a module-237XB here in Alola.

Ash- That's great, Rotom!

Sonic- And the bad news?

Rotom'dex- The bad news is it's already in the possession of a company. And I doubt they'd just hand it over as simply as that.

Ash- Yeah, especially since it's value is 2 billion and neither of us have that kind of cash on our hands.

Sonic- Let's deal with that later. Right now, what's the name of this company?
