Hey, guys! Finally got chapter 4 up! Hope ya like it! Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon.

Last time, we saw Seth fusion for the first time to save his best friend Kelly. But how exactly does he become a hero? Find out in this chapter of "Pokémon Fusion Warriors!"

Chapter 4: "Becoming A Hero"

"So, let me get this straight. Your dad created a device that allows the perfect fusion of Pokémon and humans, and that watch is it?"

Seth and Pichu grimaced as Kelly continued to pester them on their way to school. Seth had been lucky that Kelly had allowed him to rest more over the weekend after the events of the previous Friday, but now there was no escaping her questions after she forced him to walk to school with her.

"Yes," Seth answered rather begrudgingly.

"So how come you haven't taken it off?" Kelly asked.

Seth looked down at the red watch on his wrist. This had all started when he put on this amazing device. However, there was one downside to it…

"I can't," Seth sighed. "Apparently, my dad didn't tell me that once I put this thing on, it won't come off. It's locked onto my wrist."

"Wow," Kelly said in awe. For some reason, she was the most interested in the PokéFuser out of the two of them.

"So what are you gonna do now?" Kelly inquired.

Seth raised an eyebrow at her. "What do you mean?"

"Well, with that kind of power, you could really help a lot of people," Kelly explicated.

"Oh, no!" Seth said, holding out his hands and shaking his head. "I'm no hero. That was just a one-time deal to save you. We're not fighting anymore hybrids. Right, Pichu?"

"Pi-pi-chu!" Pichu, who was currently sitting on his trainer's shoulder, nodded in complete agreement with his trainer

"Oh, come on!" Kelly said irritably. "You were amazing last night when you beat up those hybrids!"

Seth smirked. "You think I'm amazing?"

"That's not what I meant!" Kelly snapped, now blushing furiously.

She then looked at him seriously and said, "Look, those hybrids last night were after that device that your dad invented. They probably aren't the only ones. And now that it's on your wrist, they're going to come after you. You might as well be prepared when they do."

Seth opened his mouth to respond, but found that he couldn't. He was dumbfounded. What she was saying did make some sense.

Seth looked over at Pichu for some help, but the Tiny Electric Mouse Pokémon just shrugged.

Seth sighed and said, "Can we talk about this later? We've got class soon."

Kelly gave him what he liked to call "The Evil Eye," making the brown-haired trainer feel extremely uneasy, but then, she breathed and replied, "Fine. Let's go."

Seth, feeling relieved that they could temporarily put this matter to rest, practically ran to class with happiness. Meanwhile, Kelly had a look on her face that said that she wasn't going to give up easily.

The same could be said for a certain president of the Devon Corporation, Maxwell Shade, as he sat in the usual darkness of his office with only his Tyranitar for company.

There was silence as he sat there in darkness, thinking hard about the past Friday's events. Three of his most promising hybrid recruits had failed him in getting him the fusion device invented by the famous inventor and former employee of the Devon Corporation, Ethan Burns. And now, the device was in the hands of Burns' son, who had used it to easily defeat his minions. Without that device, he would never be able to achieve the perfect fusion that he so desired.

His train of thought was suddenly derailed when the voice of his secretary said over the intercom, "Sir, there's someone here to see you."

"Send them in," Maxwell said with a sigh.

As his door slid open and a figure walked in, President Shade was a bit surprised at what he saw.

"I hear that you're looking for someone for a job," The figure said in a deep, rumbling voice. "I'm here to offer my services."

Maxwell's expression quickly turned from confusion into one of elation.

"You're hired."

"Mr. Burns!"

Seth's head rose from his desk as he looked up at his Pokémon Training Knowledge Class teacher, Miss Roxanne Mason, who was also the Gym Leader of the Rustboro City Gym.

She had taupe-colored hair tied into long pigtails and red eyes. She wore a long-sleeved gray blouse, a pink bow around her neck, and pink stockings. She was pretty young, maybe in her early twenties, but she looked just as intimidating as any other teacher that they had.

She had a stern look on her face as she looked down at the trainer.

"Now that I have your attention, would you care to answer the question I just asked?" She asked.

"Uh," Seth said as he scratched his head. "What was the question?"

Roxanne pinched her fingers against her forehead in frustration. She then let out a loud breathe and said, "The question was: 'What two types are strong against Dragon-types?'"

Seth put his hand to his chin as he tried to come up with the answer to her question. In a battle, Seth probably would have known the answer to this easily, but there was just something about the boring atmosphere of a classroom that made him go blank. This was exactly the reason why he was currently making a C in this class. If it wasn't for Kelly's tutoring sessions with him, he probably would have been making an F right now.

'Let's see,' Seth thought. 'I know that Dragon-types beat their own type, but what was that other type?'

Everyone began to chuckle as Seth struggled to figure it out while Kelly and Pichu just groaned.

Luckily for Seth, however, he was saved by the bell as school ended. Seth, in a rush, grabbed his things and ran out of the classroom before Roxanne could make him answer the question.

"You really need to start studying," Kelly said after she finally caught up to her friend.

"I know, I know," Seth said as they began to walk home in the bright sun of the afternoon. "I've just never been good at remembering stuff like that in a classroom setting like that."

"Then where are you good at remembering information?" Kelly asked.

Before Seth could answer her, the PokéFuser started flashing and said, "Hybrid detected."

"Huh?" Seth said as he looked down at watch. Suddenly, there was a loud "CRASH!" and then they heard multiple loud screams and shouts. Seth and Kelly, along with Pichu, looked towards the source of the sounds just a short distance away.

The air was currently full of dust, but when it finally cleared, they saw a large, blue, hunchbacked reptilian-humanoid mix that was at least seven feet tall standing menacingly in the road.

He had medium-sized wings shaped like thistle leaves, arms that were longer than his legs, a thick medium-length tail, and sharp claws on both his hands and feet. There were also tall, conical red spikes all over his body and a series of olive-colored, football-shaped scutes running across his belly.

To top it all off, its head was brightly colored red with several blunt horns and spikes jutting out everywhere, and also a blunt, brutal snout and small, fang-like protrusions sprouting from its jaws. What were really scary about him were his ferocious-looking, pale yellow irises that seemed to glare at everything they looked at. It was kind of hard to tell due to his monstrous looks, but Seth could see a few human features in the dragon-like monster.

Seth growled and practically spat out the word, "Hybrid."

A glint suddenly appeared in Kelly's eye, along with a sly smirk.

"You know," She began, "this would be a great time to use that watch of yours to fusion and be a hero by stopping this guy."

What surprised her, and sort of infuriated her, was when Seth replied, "No, I think me and my Pokémon can handle this one. Right, Pichu?"

Pichu nodded and a smirk appeared on his face. Seth then took a Pokéball from his belt and threw it into the air, yelling, "Magmar, take a stand!"

In a flash of light, the red Spitfire Pokémon appeared on the ground in front of him. As it saw its opponent, its tail-flame seemed to grow larger in anticipation.

"Magmar, use Flamethrower!" Seth ordered.

Magmar opened its mouth and released a stream of orange-yellow flame from it at the Druddigon hybrid.

Before, the hybrid hadn't noticed them due to the destruction that it was causing, but as Magmar's Flamethrower hit it in the back, it growled slightly before turning towards the source of this attack.

"Nobody shoots a flame at Dracoslash and gets away with it!" He snarled at the sight of them.

He then put his hands together and began to form a light blue ball of focused energy in between them. He then fired the ball out at Magmar, and the orb exploded upon contact, sending the Fire-type flying backwards several feet.

After it landed, Magmar tried to get back up onto his feet, but he immediately cringed from the intense damage and pain that it had taken from the Focus Blast.

"Magmar, come back!" Seth said as he held out his Pokéball and recalled Magmar back into it. He then put the ball back onto his belt and replaced it in his hand with another one.

"He's strong, I'll give him that," Seth commented. "But let's see how he fares against Donphan! Donphan, take a stand!"

Instantly, the Armored Elephant Pokémon appeared and let out a trumpet-like battle cry, catching Dracoslash's attention.

"Donphan, use Rollout!" Seth commanded.

Donphan curled up his body into a ball and began to roll with incredible speed towards Dracoslash.

Unfortunately, Dracoslash managed to catch the Ground-type before he could hit him and cause him some major damage. He then threw Donphan back to where he came from, where the elephant landed with a "THUMP!"

As he struggled to get back up onto his feet, Donphan glared angrily at the Dragon-type hybrid.

"Donphan, let's try Ice Shard!" Seth called out.

A glowing light blue ball of ice formed in between Donphan tusks and then he fired the orb out at Dracoslash.

As the attack struck a surprised Dracoslash in the shoulder, the hybrid clutched its shoulder and began to grunt in intense pain.

He then jumped towards Donphan and struck him with his tail, which was now glowing light blue. The blow caused Donphan a great deal of damage and sent him flying through the air until it landed in front of Seth completely knocked out.

Seth returned Donphan back into its ball and was about to grab another Pokéball when he noticed that Dracoslash was stomping away.

Seth tried to run after him, but stopped when he felt a soft but firm hand grab onto his shoulder.

"Seth, let him go," Kelly pleaded. "If that thing did that to Magmar and Donphan, imagine what he could do to the rest of your Pokémon."

Seth looked back at the hybrid one more time, but soon sighed and gave her a nod. The three of them began to run as fast they could to the closest Pokémon Center.

About half an hour later, Nurse Joy happily told them that Magmar and Donphan had fully recovered. But when she asked how they got that way in the first place, Seth partially lied and told them that they had gotten hurt after battling another trainer's Dragon-type.

Then, as they walked back out of the Pokémon Center, Kelly noticed that Seth had a frown on his face.

"What's wrong?" She asked.

"Nothing," Seth stated. He then sighed and said, "It's just that I can't believe that I stood by and let that thing hurt my Pokémon like that."

"Seth, that hybrid was really strong," Kelly said with a serious look on her face. "There was nothing you could do to stop it."

"Yes, there was," Seth muttered. Kelly saw that he was looking down at the PokéFuser.

As they were passing a store window filled with TVs, a "Breaking News" logo on them caught their attention, causing them to stop and look to see what it was about.

"…a large, monstrous hybrid is currently rampaging throughout downtown Rustboro City. Citizens are advised to get away from this threat as fast as they can…"

Pichu looked at nobody in particular and asked in his native tongue, "You ever notice how televisions seem to always conveniently give characters information that they needed at the time when they were passing a store that keeps televisions in their windows?"

Ignoring Pichu's obvious fourth wall breakage, Seth glanced over at Kelly and said, "Alright. I know what I need to do."

Meanwhile, Dracoslash was causing great devastation and destruction to some of the buildings of downtown Rustboro City. At this point, most, if not all, of the people had run away to escape the hybrid's wrath. Except for the news reporters, who of course had to stay in order to get a good scoop for their respective newspaper or broadcast, and anyone else who hadn't managed to get away as of yet.

"When's that warrior guy the boss told me about supposed to show up?" He grumbled impatiently. "I don't have all day."

"Then I showed up just in time, now didn't I?" He suddenly heard a voice say from behind him.

Dracoslash turned around and was surprised to see an armored knight that was about six feet tall standing behind him with his arms crossed.

"You know, you didn't have to go on a rampage just to get my attention," Seth said sternly. "But since you did, I'll be happy to take you down."

Dracoslash then laughed and said, "Oh, please. You're the guy that my boss was telling me about?"

'Boss?' Seth mentally repeated before the Druddigon hybrid continued.

"I could use your sword as a toothpick! Just how do you expect to defeat me?" Dracoslash asked.

All of the sudden, a blur went straight past the hybrid and slashed his side, causing Dracoslash to wince in pain. He was then shocked to see that the knight was now behind him again. Seth's sword was now out of its sheath and glowing a light blue glow.

"Any more questions that I should answer?" Seth inquired, smirking under his helmet.

"But how?" Dracoslash exclaimed in outrage.

Seth chuckled and said, "I'm faster than I look. Plus, it helps when the hybrid I'm fighting is slower than a Shuckle."

Dracoslash growled and then took a deep breath before releasing an intense stream of red-orange fire from his mouth at Seth.

Seth, with great speed, dodged the flame with ease. What he didn't expect was for Dracoslash to suddenly jump at him with glowing light blue claws just when he had come to stop after dodging the Flamethrower.

As Dracoslash slashed at him with his Dragon Claw, Seth was knocked several yards backwards though the air and into a nearby building. Luckily for Seth, the building had been damaged more than he had.

Sparks of yellow electricity began to course through Seth's right arm. He then held out his hand and fired a bolt of yellow electricity from his palm at the hybrid.

The attack didn't look like it had dealt Dracoslash very much damage, however.

"Curse his super-strong dragon hide," Seth muttered as Dracoslash went to attack him again.

At this point, a battle that had begun in Seth's favor was quickly turning into him having to dodge all of Dracoslash's powerful attacks.

Fortunately for Seth, Dracoslash didn't seem to know that many long-range attacks. So, if he could just figure out a way to penetrate that thick dragon hide of his with a super-effective hit, then he might be able to bring the Druddigon hybrid down.

But what could he really use against him that would work? Seth had tried to use a Flamethrower on him, but it didn't even leave a burn. None of his other attacks seemed to hurt him for long, either.

"What am I going to do? He's a Dragon-type and I…," Seth started, before realizing something. Dragon-types did have a weakness! Their own type!

"Twister!" Seth yelled as he held out his hands and an orb of wind began to form in front of his palms. He then fired a tornado from his hands out at Dracoslash, who was hit directly by the attack.

"Thank you, Servine!" Seth said happily with a fist pump as the tornado caused an explosion upon contact.

"You're welcome," He heard her say in his mind, causing him to flinch at the unexpected answer. He had kind of forgotten that when they were fused together, he could hear his Pokémon's thoughts and that they could hear his. It was still a bit unsettling at times.

His joy didn't last for long, however, when he saw that the Druddigon hybrid had managed to pull himself up and was now even chuckling to himself.

"But that was a super-effective hit!" Seth exclaimed in shock.

"What I lack in speed, I make up for in defense," Dracoslash said with a grin. "You can't defeat me that easily."

Dracoslash then began to form a light blue orb of focused energy in between his hands.

Seth was now a bit worried. Because he had been dodging Dracoslash's attacks so much, he was getting exhausted. And if this attack hit him, he would be done for.

'If Dragon-type attacks won't take him down alone, then what will?' Seth frantically thought. Then, his eyes widened as realization struck him.

"What two types are strong against Dragon-types?" (Roxanne)

(End Flashback)

(Flashback to battle with Dracoslash earlier)

"Donphan, let's try Ice Shard!" Seth called out.

A glowing light blue ball of ice formed in between Donphan tusks and then he fired the orb out at Dracoslash.

As the attack struck a surprised Dracoslash in the shoulder, the hybrid clutched its shoulder and began to grunt in intense pain.

(End Flashback)

'That's it!' Seth thought as a smirk began to appear on his face underneath the helmet. 'Dragon-types are weak against both their own type and Ice-types!'

"Hey, Dragon Face!" Seth yelled to the hybrid, who was still charging up his attack. "I think it's time that I put you on ice!"

He then put his hands together and quickly formed a glowing light blue ball of ice in between them. He held his hands out and fired the orb out at the hybrid's feet. As the ball hit the target, a thick coating of ice covered up Dracoslash's legs.

Dracoslash screamed in pain and bellowed, "What is this? Stop it!"

Seth began to fire Ice Shard after Ice Shard at his Dragon-typed foe until everything but his head was completely frozen in a thick layer of ice.

"Now, let's try this again," Seth said with determination in his voice.

He then held out his hands and fired a tornado at Dracoslash. As the attack hit, the ice was instantly shattered and sent the hybrid stumbling backwards in pain.

After he finally stopped himself, Dracoslash opened his eyes, but immediately wished he hadn't when Seth came running at him at a super-fast speed with a light blue glowing blade in his hands. Seth slashed him with it, and then landed behind Dracoslash with his back to him.

As Seth put his sword back into its sheath, Dracoslash winced and fell face forward to the ground, where he landed with a loud "THUD!"

"And that's why you don't mess with me," Seth said to himself with satisfaction.

After the fight had ended, Seth had to hurry and run off before he was bombarded with questions from all of the reporters there.

When he got home, he immediately de-fusioned and then he found Kelly sitting on the couch, waiting for him. There was great excitement in her eyes and a sly grin on her face.

"So, what do you say?" Kelly asked coyly with an expectant look.

Seth's ears turned red and he began to grumble incomprehensively, which made her cup her hand over her ear and ask, "I'm sorry, what was that?"

"I SAID 'YOU WERE RIGHT AND I WAS WRONG!' ARE YA HAPPY NOW?" Seth yelled angrily, his face a whole new shade of red.

Kelly giggled and said, "Thank you. By the way, I'm glad that you figured out the answer to Miss Mason's question."

Seth scratched the back of his head sheepishly and chuckled a bit. "Yeah, I guess that I was in my element."

Then, Kelly noticed something on the TV and said, "Hey, listen to this!"

"…after he was defeated, the hybrid disappeared before he could be arrested. Authorities say that they are still on the lookout for this monster. Witnesses have told us that he was defeated by a sort of 'Pokémon Knight'…"

"Hmm," Seth thought out loud. "'Pokémon Knight,' huh?"

"I like it," Kelly said, beaming at him. "It has a nice ring to it."

"Well, those hybrids better watch out," Seth said with a fiery passion glowing in his brown eyes. "Because from now on, the Pokémon Knight will be there to stop them every time."

"Pi-chu!" Pichu nodded with a look on his face similar to his trainer's.

Later that night, after Kelly went home, Seth and Pichu went to bed and slept peacefully after a long and hard day.

What they didn't know or hear was that someone managed to pick the lock to the front door and make his way inside.

With the quietest tiptoe, the person snuck over to Seth's dad's computer and began to swiftly type on the keyboard.

He then stuck a flash drive into the computer's USB drive and began making copies of files from Mr. Burns' file storage and putting them onto it.

After the deed was done, he silently removed the flash drive and snuck out of the house without a hitch.

As soon as he made it outside, he silently said to himself, "Looks like I'm not the only one. It seems that a new challenge has arisen."
