The Black Moon Chapter 7


It was the morning of our raid of the bandits den, and all of us (especially Evo) were raring to go.

"Come on! Come on! Let's barge straight in and beat all of them down!" Evo exclaimed, jumping a little bit.

"Shush! You'll get us noticed! We have to sneak in and attack while their guard is down" I whispered to her.

"Shiro's right," Axel said. "We have to take them by surprise or else we might lose, and who knows what will happen to us after that."

I shivered at the thought. "Yeah! Now come on! Follow me! I found a secret route that we can use from the back when I scouted around the base." I whispered.

I led the two to a small patch of bushes that I found when I scouted around earlier that led to a small passageway to the back of their base. I silently crawled through the bushes, and then motioned for the others to follow suit with my tail.

We treaded as quietly and stealthily as possible until Evo broke the silence, "Are we there yet?" Evo whispered.

"Nearly," I replied.

"Nearly?! Let's just blast a hole somewhere then attack!" Evo exclaimed.

Axel and my furs stood on end at Evo's loud voice. We heard something shuffling close by. I walked a little ahead to see an opening and some Pokemon blocking as to what looked like an entrance of some sort.

"Did you hear something?" The big bird Pokemon, now identified as the Swellow I saw before, asked his companion.

"Yeah, I think so," The companion, the Smeargle replied.

"It might be that stupid Umbreon we saw last night!" Swellow said.

My eyes turned into a scowl at what he said and I was about to pounce when Axel told me to calm down, and then we heard,

"Or maybe it's that idiot of an Absol! Can't he see this place no longer belongs to him, but us!?" The Smeargle said indignantly. Axel growled next to me, Evo then said,

"Hey calm down, you two are giving off really dark auras," she told us. I calmed down at her voice and I tapped for Axel to do the same. I signaled for them to approach a little closer. It seemed they were blocking a door of some kind of, probably to the inside of the base.

I handed a Sleep Seed to my partners, "When I count to 3, throw these seeds at them," I told them to do. They nodded. "This has to be precise, and even if you miss, they'll be distracted that's when you go wild and barrage them with attacks until they faint," I explained to them. Evo gave a devilish smile at that, and Axel just nodded in understanding, but a little vigorously.

"Okay, 1..."

"2"

"3!" I yelled, and all 3 of us threw our seeds at the guarding Pokemon. One managed to get into the Swellow's mouth and he was out cold, however, the Smeargle was quick and dodged it.

"What was that?!" he said to himself.

"NOW!" I ordered loudly and all 3 of us bombarded the Smeargle with Tackles, Scratches, Slams, and other physical attacks as we could until he was out too.

"Whew! That was fun!" Evo said, bouncing up a little. I just nodded in response.

Axel looked over to me, "What do you suggest we do now? Barge in and attack?" he asked me.

I examined the wall-door thing, from what I observed, there's a big door on the wall while the sides were covered in undergrowth with 2 trees looming over from the corners.

"Hold on for a bit, I'm gonna check from the top of that tree. Tie up those guys with vines while I'm at it." I told Axel and Evo as I climbed up one of the trees. I unsheathed the claws I tend to not really use much, and climbed up, and up, and up, the tree. When I thought I climbed up high enough, I jumped onto a nearby branch and looked down.

First thought: Wow I climbed up high.

Second though: There was no house to the bandits hideout/ Axels home.

That was quite strange, a hideout with no roof. As I looked a little farther I saw that there was a back entrance to the base. We could go through that way, but before that I had to take a look at our opponents.

I climbed a little lower and looked down. Bags of treasure were scattered everywhere, and sleeping on some beds there was an Arcanine, Noctowl, Machop, and Mightyena. I also saw something that looked like a throne a little off to the corner of the room; however, it wasn't filled with anyone. They were still asleep, so that was good for us. I climbed a down the tree, then jumped off it to land beside me teammates.

"What'd you find?" Axel asked me.

"Well your "home" doesn't have a roof" I replied.

"Oh, yeah, it was nice to sleep with the fresh air out, but I had to build a fort to survive the rain though," Axel replied.

"There also seems to be a kind of entrance from the rear of the base that leads straight into it." I finished.

"Behind huh? I made that passageway so I could escape if there was some kind disaster happening within the forest or something." Axel said.

I looked over to Evo to see if she was listening. She had a twitching tail, and had a determined face, as if she wanted to just barge in and roar at all the Pokemon in there, of course that would ruin our whole plan.

"Are we going yet?" Evo asked.

Not wanting to make a big rustling noise to wake the enemies, we began to walk around the base until we saw the passageway I was talking about. All three of us walked into the passageway, which turned into a slow creep as we felt us getting closer and closer to our opponents, close enough to hear their snoring.

"On the count of 3, we attack with all our force, attack ANYONE that's currently sleeping, okay?" I told the 2 behind me. They nodded excitedly.

"1….2…." however, before I could say "3" Axel & Evo already pounced on 2 of the bandits. The Mightyena and Machop yelped in surprise as they were brought down to the ground by them. The Arcanine and Noctowl were beginning to awaken so I sighed and acted quickly. I ran up and used "Glare" on the Arcanine, paralyzing it instantly, and "Shadow Balled" the Noctowl, damaging it immensely since I've used the move so many times and trained it up nicely.

Our battle was actually going great for quite awhile; the Mightyena was being pushed around by Axels "Iron Tails" and Evo was beating the Machop badly with her "Psychics" and I was battling the Noctowl and Arcanine solo by using "Dig" on Arcanine and using Shadow Ball a lot on Noctowl.

As I said before, we were fighting great for awhile. That's because we didn't meet their LEADER. As we knocked out each of our targets I heard a rumble coming from the ground. After that I saw Axel being flung away.

"Aaagh!" I heard Axel howl in pain.

I turned around to see a Garchomp jump out from the ground and land with a loud *SLAM*. Evo attempted to charge and attack it, but was hopelessly flung away by him. Evo hit the floor with a *thud* and groaned (to my relief) in pain, showing she was still alive, and tried to get up, but failed to. I noticed the Garchomp coming closer and closer to Evo.

I acted on impulse and charged at the Garchomp and shot a Shadow Ball with as much energy I could give it. It hit its target and the Garchomp slid away with a surprised "Hrrk!?" and hit the wall, breaking through it. I ran over to Evo.

"You okay?" I asked her.

"Yeah, I just can't…move my knee." She replied.

I looked at her in worry, and then looked around for Axel. When I found him he was staggering towards us.

"Nice Shadow Ball," he said to me. "However, I don't think that'll keep him down though." as he pointed his head to where the Garchomp hit. I looked over and saw that the Garchomp burst out of the whole with remnants of the wall flying off him as he lifted his head up and roared, and then he looked at us with a menacing look and growled threateningly.

"No backing out now huh?" I said as I got into a battle pose. "Axel, take care of Evo, I've got this bastard myself."

"Don't be reckless! This guy's crazy strong! You'll need support!" Axel exclaimed.

"Che, I need to make myself stronger so I won't have to depend on others all the time, I know he's crazy strong Axel. He's the leader, the boss, the one that's supposed to sit on that throne here."

"Shiro," Evo said my name behind me. I turned around,

"Take Axels support, you'll need it." She said. She stared into my eyes in with clear worry, and then I looked at Axel, his eyes were filled with burning determination.

I nodded in understanding.

"Alright! Come on!" I exclaimed and then Axel and I charged with a loud battle cry.
