Meanwhile with Emi and Victini...
"Victini, wait, let me help you!" Emi called out to the Pokemon.
Victini soon flew up high to one building. Emi soon flew toward the mountain and began to climb it from there while being right behind the Pokemon.
"Emi, we'll meet you inside!" Akito called out while running with the others.
"Okay!" Emi called back while still climbing.
"This isn't happening," Victini whimpered to himself. "This just isn't happening."
"Victini, don't worry; everything will be alright." Emi told him.
Victini soon looked to her and flew out to her.
"Whoa!" Emi yelped before she soon hugged the Pokemon like she was holding a newborn baby. "Oh, Victini, it's going to be okay..."
They soon went into a room that seemed to be familiar and where they both saw someone who they thought was the past king.
"Victini." A voice called.
Emi and Victini looked over.
"I ask that you grant me your power." The 'King' requested.
"Oh! Of course!" Victini beamed before flying over out of Emi's arms.
"You as well, Emi or should I call you Pokemon Princess?" The 'King' requested.
"But how...?" Emi asked.
The 'King' was soon shown to actually be Damon which startled Victini a bit. The Pillars soon surrounded both Victini and Emi.
"No! No more!" Victini cried out, but the barrier blocked him.
"Damon, stop! You don't know what you're doing!" Emi told him.
"Don't tell me how to do my job!" Damon told her.
"But this is wrong!" Emi cried out.
A new Pokemon was shown high above them as the Pillars blocked Victini from going anywhere and soon electrocuted both him and Emi.
"Ah!" Emi screamed in pain.
The power and energy began to spread throughout the room from Emi and Victini. There were orb-like Pokemon who were singing from the spread of energy.
"Damon!" Juanita called once she saw her son.
"Victini and Emi's powers are increasing the Psychic-Type Pokemon in the castle!" Damon called back. "Take a look!"
His mother and sister began to do just that. Ash and the others began to come out to join them.
"Ash." Carlita said.
"Carlita, where are Victini and my sister?" Ash asked.
Suddenly, there was a big rumble which nearly made them fall.
"What was that?!" Felicity gasped.
"The castle!" Seth pointed out.
"It's moving!" Victoria added.
The people in town began to notice the castle was moving and took a look from amazement.
"This hurts!" Victini cried out of pain.
Damon ignored Emi and Victini as he continued to work.
"Please, stop!" Emi cried out of pain.
The others were moving on their ground as well as they saw the Sword of the Vale castle moving into the sky.
"I'm using the castle to change the flow of the Dragon Force!" Damon called out as he worked.
"Cool." Seth smiled.
"So high up..." Felicity said nervously before falling backwards.
Mismagius soon caught her before she could hit the floor. There was a bright glow on the bottom underneath them as well as in the ground that looked green which began to spread throughout the land.
"Cool." Patrat smiled.
Meloetta took a look while flying by Victoria's side like Mismagius did with Felicity. The green glows soon went up against a rock wall which began to make water burst out, flowing through almost like a dam.
"It's finally happened!" Mayor Matt beamed.
"We're on our way!" Damon called out then as he seemed to almost be done. "Take Vale with you when the castle has returned!"
"I guess there was no reason to be suspicious of Damon." Estelle said to Akito.
"You think so?" Akito replied.
Victini and Emi soon cried out which seemed to trigger both Ash and Akito. The Sword of the Vale soon moved as both of the boys felt something.
"We have to go inside. Right now." Akito told the others before running off with Ash.
"Why? What's wrong?" Paul asked.
"Now I'm having a bad feeling." Akito replied.
They all soon ran in with Akito and Ash to see what was going on which concerned Emi and Victini.
"Ash, Victini and Emi are lending m their power." Damon said to the concerned boys.
"You're hurting them!" Akito replied. "You have to let them go!"
"Leave Emi and Victini alone!" Pikachu cried out.
Emi began to try to use her power to get herself and Victini free.
"Emi..." Akito whispered as he felt a pain in his heart to see Emi get hurt like this.
"You've got to let them go!" Ash urged.
"I won't," Damon replied. "I still need their power."
"But you're hurting them!" Akito glared.
Ash soon began to run over to help his sister and the poor Pokemon. Damon soon tossed a PokeBall, summoning a Pokemon to stop them.
"Not so fast!" Reuniclus glared as it blocked them, using its power on Ash and Akito.
Eventually, the others began to fly away from the Pokemon's power as Damon still needed Emi and Victini.
"He is not making this easy." Akito said.
"How do you feel?" Estelle asked.
"Enraged that he's hurting Emi and Victini..." Akito replied with narrowed eyes. "I feel like I could break any minute."
"That's love for ya." Vincent said.
"Heh. Thanks, Vincent." Akito said sheepishly, though still enraged with Damon.
The Pokemon continued to use its power as Emi and Victini were being drained of their power.
"STOP IT!" Juanita soon yelled out as she ran inside with Carlita, Paul, and Susan.
"Stop or Victini and Emi will die!" Carlita added to her brother.
"Damon, please, you have to stop this now." Susan told him.
"But Mother-" Damon frowned.
"We'll have to use force." Seth said.
"Pikachu, now, use Thunderbolt!" Ash cried out.
Pikachu soon charged up and shot at Reuniclus. Its power then faded, dropping the ones who were trapped from its power.
"Pikachu, destroy the Pillars, Electro Ball!" Ash then told his Pokemon.
Pikachu then tried to do just that, only for something else to block the attack.
"What was that?" Vincent asked.
A certain Pokemon was soon shown in the corner of the room before flying off.
"One of the Dragon Pokemon..." Victoria whispered to herself as she held onto Meloetta.
Everyone began to look very angry at Damon for being so selfish. The Pokemon soon flew back inside to see them.
"Reshiram!" Carlita called out.
Meloetta began to do her best to try and fight Reshiram.
"Meloetta!" Victoria gasped for her new Pokemon.
"That's Reshiram?" Ash asked in surprise.
Reshiram soon snarled at Meloetta, torching up flames on its backside. Meloetta soon sang its relic song, and where it soon started to glow as it began to change its form.
"Meloetta... What're you doing...?" Victoria whispered to herself.
Reshiram looked to Meloetta about to stop it, but it kept on singing like a Siren. After a short time, Meloetta was soon in its pirouette form.
"Is this supposed to happen?!" Victoria yelped. "I'm not sure!"
"Calm down, I'm sure it's normal for that Pokemon to do that." Seth tried to soothe his sister.
Reshiram soon tried to charge towards Meloetta to knock it down while it defended itself through singing and dancing. And where it began to use Close Combat.
"I don't know what's going!" Victoria cried out.
Susan did her best to comfort and calm her daughter down as she seemed to be having a little meltdown.
"It would be wise if you don't fight..." Meloetta told Reshiram during their fight, even though it was against most fighting. "But you've forced me to do this, Reshiram."
Reshiram soon hit Meloetta with Blue Fire and which hit directly.
"Eek!" Meloetta yelped from the hit.
"MELOETTA!" Victoria cried out.
Meloetta soon changed back into its Aria Form as it lands into Victoria's arms.
"Meloetta... Are you okay?" Victoria asked.
"I'm so sorry, Mistress... I tried my best..." Meloetta told the girl. "I didn't mean to disappoint you."
"Meloetta, I'm not disappointed." Victoria told the Pokemon.
"You're not...?" Meloetta asked.
"Meloetta, that was one of the most bravest and awesomest things I've ever seen," Victoria gave a small smile. "I'm just proud that you want to become my Pokemon, and I promise, you'll get better. So you lost one fight against Reshiram, I promise that I'll make it better for you as we work together as Pokemon and Pokemon trainer on our future adventures together."
"I'd like that." Meloetta smiled back.
Susan and Paul looked very proud of their daughter.
"I wanted to catch that Victini, but... I think my Pokemon is Meloetta." Victoria soon said as her Pokemon studying obsession seemed to fade away.
"That's great, but maybe save this moment for later, because we still have a situation." Seth said.
Victoria soon looked up with a small frown in concern as her brother was right of course. Reshiram soon breathed against them, nearly blowing them away off of the floor.
"Golurk, stop Reshiram!" Juanita called out, tossing out her PokeBall.
Golurk soon did just as its trainer told it to do. Reshiram cried out as it was soon charged by Golurk. Reshiram then kicked it back with its feet before hitting it with a fireball from its mouth.
"Ooh, that had to hurt." Paul frowned for Golurk.
"That was Fusion Flare!" Akito yelped.
Golurk soon fell through the sky after getting hit.
"Golurk!" Carlita frowned for her mother's Pokemon.
"Hey, I'm back!" Reuniclus said, floating by.
"Reuniclus, use Psychic!" Damon commanded.
"Uh-oh." Seth gulped.
"Oh, no, you don't" Patrat glared as it charged and began to attack Reuniclus.
"Patrat?" Seth blinked.
"Meloetta, you take a rest, now it's my turn!" Patrat glared as it approached Reuniclus.
"Get out of my way, you rat!" Reuniclus glared back at Patrat.
"Never!" Patrat glared as he attacked Reuniclus with Crunch.
"Oh, careful, Patrat." Seth said, a bit worriedly.
"Don't worry, I've been fighting on my own a while, but after this, I'll be fighting right by your side." Patrat vowed to his new trainer.
Reuniclus soon glared before using psychic on Patrat. Patrat yelped from the hit.
"Got you too." Reuniclus smirked.
"Oh, yeah? Take this!" Patrat glared, a bit weakly before attempting to tackle down Reuniclus.
Reuniclus soon used Psychic to stop Patrat in its tracks.
"Man, Psychic Pokemon are strong, huh?" Estelle frowned.
"It looks like it from this side." Felicity had to agree.
Reuniclus soon used Psychic on the others. The others began to levitate again.
"No! Stop!" Paul cried out.
Bouffalant snarled as it began to Headbutt against Reuniclus, coming from Paul's side, and where that broke Reuniclus's concentration.
"Reuniclus, get him with more Psychic!" Damon called out.
"Damon! Stop!" Akito cried out. "You're hurting Emi! The only girl I've ever loved!"
"Damon, please stop this!" Estelle begged
"Stop it!" Carlita grunted from the pain.
"Pikachu, quick, Thunderbolt!" Ash called out.
"Get out of my way!" Reuniclus soon glared at Bouffalant to get him out of the way as it continued to use Psychic.
Bouffalant grunted as it tried to move around as it was being lifted by Psychic.
"Bouffalant..." Paul frowned to his Pokemon.
"I'm sorry! I can't hold on!" Bouffalant cried out while grunting.
"Ash, no!" Cilan warned Ash about using Pikachu like this.
Ash and Akito grunted until they felt something deep within themselves give up.
"Akito... I'm sorry about Emi..." Ash grunted to him. "I promised from the day I met her that I would look after her and make sure nothing ever happened to her... I guess I let you, Mom, and Dad down."
"No, you didn't." Akito told him.
"I'm sorry she's getting hurt," Ash frowned. "It hurts a lot for me too because she's my little sister."
"You're a great brother, Ash," Akito reassured him. "Emi's lucky to have you."
"Thanks, Akito." Ash smiled.
Akito smiled back before grunting a bit. "This must've been how Superman felt about Krypton."
The forest Pokemon began to look concerned, including the Deerling from earlier as the Sword of the Vale made its rounds with Damon at the controls. Victini grunted and squirmed before he began to have a memory while Emi looked like she was dying, until she was seeing the memory again.
The King was shown to be using Victini and his daughter's power to lower the Sword of the Vale back into its place.
"The Sword of the Vale must not be moved, if the Sword of the Vale is moved once more; the Dragon Force will be disturbed, and that could destroy our entire world," The King told the Pokemon and his daughter. "Which means, it should never be moved again."
"Of course, Father." Ami replied.
Ash and Akito saw this memory as they were connected to Emi.
"Never give up... Stay brave... Stay happy... Don't worry about me..." The King told Ami softly before gently touching her face and taking her hand. "I love you so much."
Ami took his hand with tears in her eyes as she knew why her father suddenly said that while Victini looked sad now too.
Ash and Akito soon woke up. The others were shown to be looking to them, looking happy and relieved that they were awake and okay now.
"Oh, boys, thank goodness." Susan smiled to them.
"Ugh... Where are we?" Akito asked.
"In the castle store room." Cilan replied.
"Boys, please forgive me." Juanita frowned.
"Forgive my brother." Carlita added.
"The sword must be removed from the ground or else the Dragon Force will be disturbed." Akito told them.
"He's right!" Ash added. "Damon shouldn't have moved the castle! This could destroy the world!"
"What did you say?" Juanita gasped to them.
"Victini just told us so!" Ash and Akito replied.
"The Castle was moved to the top of the mountain to keep the disturbance of the Dragon Force from getting out of control." Ash then explained.
"It can't be..." Carlita replied.
"According to legend, the Dragon Force became disturbed after Reshiram turned to stone, which means Reshiram doesn't know." Juanita stated.
"Not good." Estelle said.
"What do we do?" Cilan asked out of concern.
"Reshiram's too strong!" Iris added as she hugged Axew.
"Zekrom." Juanita then said.
"He's the only one strong enough to fight Reshiram." Akito said.
"That's right." Carlita replied.
"Okay, but where is Zekrom?" Ash wondered.
"Reshiram was beneath the castle, that's where Damon found it," Juanita explained. "Then that must mean Zekrom is nearby as well."
"Hmm... I wonder..." Akito said before opening the sscret entrance to where he and Ash came out from.
Everyone gasped once they saw the secret entrance, showing the stairwell going down.
"That has to be where Zekrom is hiding." Akito said hopefully.
"How did you know that was there?" Estelle asked him.
"It only makes sense for Zekrom to be down there if Reshiram came from the top," Akito replied. "Also, Ash and I came through this way before."
"So you think you can lead us to Zekrom?" Felicity asked.
"Yes, I have a very strong hunch." Akito nodded securely.
"Then let's go." Ash said.
Ash and Akito soon led the way downstairs with the others following behind them.
"Just how far does this path go?" Iris wondered.
"It feels like we keep going around in circles." Cilan added.
"Akito, Ash, are we lost?" Victoria asked.
However, the two didn't answer.
"Ash? Akito?" Victoria asked. "Where did they go?"
"I don't know." Vincent said.
"You guys! We're down here!" Ash's voice called out.
Everyone looked down to see Ash, Akito, and Pikachu waving to them from a lower height.
"But guys!" Iris cried out.
"How did you get down there?" Cilan added.
Ash looked to Akito who shrugged, though he remembered this from Damon's story. "Beats me!" he then smiled sheepishly to the others. "We're gonna go on ahead!"
"Good luck, guys!" Vincent told them.
"Let's go!" Akito told Ash.
They soon went down the path together.
"Go for it!" Seth called out.
"Oh, I hope they can find Zekrom." Victoria said to herself.
"It should be smooth sailing from here." Akito said.
"Did you have a dream about this by any chance?" Ash asked knowingly.
"I saw a vision from Damon when Estelle and I felt suspicious from him." Akito explained.
"That makes sense." Ash then said.
"At least this doesn't look challenging." Akito said.
"Is anything ever a challenge for you?" Ash smirked playfully.
"Very funny." Akito rolled his eyes playfully.
Emi and Victini soon cried out which was something that both Ash and Akito heard.
"Emi and Victini are in a lot of pain." Ash firmly frowned.
"We better hurry." Akito said.
They soon ran off together to go and save Emi and Victini.
"Is it within you?!" A voice called out to them.
A bright glow then cast over them which made them stop instantly.
"The will which to consume your ideas!" The voice continued.
"Whoa, where is that voice coming from?" Akito asked.
"It sounds creepy." Pikachu shivered.
The platforms began to fall and disintegrate.
"We gotta keep moving!" Ash soon told Akito and Pikachu.
"Yes, before we fall with those!" Akito agreed before running off with the two.
The three of them began to run as fast as they could. Pupitar soon came out and flew with them.
"Try to keep up!" Akito told his Pokemon.
"I will!" Pupitar promised as he joined them.
The four began to race through the platforms as they began to fall behind them before they soon slipped and fell, sliding down the final platforms into the deep darkness which was as dark as night.
"I can hardly see a thing." Akito said.
"It's really dark in here." Pikachu frowned.
Ash grunted as he landed.
"Ash! Are you okay?!" Pikachu asked in concern.
"I'm okay." Ash reassured his Pokemon.
"Hopefully we'll find Zecrom." Akito said.
"I sure hope so," Pupitar said. "I feel so sad for Emi and Victini."
"Me too, buddy," Akito frowned softly. "Uh... Where are we anyway?"
They soon tried to take a look around, but a black orb was soon shown before something levitated it and made it glow.
"What is your wish?" The voice demanded.
"Shenron?" Akito asked.
"No... It's not Shenron..." The voice replied. "Tell me your wish... Your ideas..."
"Our wish? Our ideas?" Akito asked.
Ash began to think about Victini. "Idea? I really wanna help Victini... Not to mention my sister." he then said. He soon saw memories of bonding with Victini during this adventure, and also of when Emi was a baby and he looked after her the best that he could with his parents after she came home for the first time. "We gotta help!" Ash then said.
"Victini lived here all alone for a thousand years... Lonely... He must've been so lonely..." Akito added. "Also, when your family first met Emi... She needed you guys more than anything."
"Exactly." Ash nodded.
"You promised to take Victini to the ocean." Akito then said.
"Yes... I promise!" Ash added firmly.
The orb then glowed and burst a bit before showing a black Dragon Pokemon. Akito smiled as this meant they had a chance to fight Reshiram.
"It is your will that shall bring your idea to life!" Zekrom informed as it soon appeared, looking down to them.
"This is going to be good." Akito beamed to himself.
Meanwhile with the others...
The others began to run off together as Reshiram flew around with the Sword of the Vale castle still floating in the air.
"Juanita! Look through the clouds!" Cilan gasped.
They soon all took a look through the clouds to the ground to see something wrong happening.
"Oh, no." Carlita frowned as her brother had gone too far.
"Oh my..." Estelle frowned.
A helicopter was soon shown, hovering above them.
"It's Mattus!" Juanita recognized the pilot.
"Things look really bad down there!" Mayor Matt told them.
"It's the Dragon Force!" Vincent told him.
"It's out of control!" Juanita added.
"How did you know?" Mayor Matt asked them.
"Because Ash and Akito told us it would happen." Carlita whispered in realization.
"We have to get the sword back to where it was removed!" Vincent told Mayor Matt.
Golurk soon came out.
Golurk, you're back!" Victoria called to Juanita's Pokemon.
"Golurk, you must go and stop the castle!" Juanita told her Pokemon.
Golurk soon floated up in the air, facing towards Damon, bringing out a pair of hands to make an energy ball.
"Reshiram, make sure Golurk doesn't get in my way." Damon commanded.
Mismagius soon blocked Reshiram to keep it from stopping Golurk.
"Mismagius." Felicity whispered to her Pokemon.
"I've had just about enough of you!" Mismagius glared at Reshiram.
"You get out of my way!" Reshiram glared back.
"No! The Dragon force is disturbed and the Sword of the Vale has to be put back where it was moved!" Mismagius told him.
"Then you'll have to deal with this!" Reshiram snarled, shooting a fireball at both her and Gorluck.
Mismagius soon tried to counteract against it with Phantom Force, and Golurk soon helped out with Flash Cannon.
"Get him." Mismagius told Golurk.
"I don't have any idea who you are, but thank you!" Golurk said as he began to fight back against Reshiram.
"Whose Pokemon is that?" Juanita asked about Mismagius.
"That would be mine," Felicity replied. "I've had Mismagius for a good, long time."
"Well, you've done a great job evolving it." Juanita smiled.
"Oh, merci beaucop, thank you, that means a lot to me." Felicity beamed.
"Maybe I ought to get rid of you!" Reshiram glared at Mismagius, shooting a fireball at her.
Mismagius soon dodged to the left.
"Oh, good, she missed that one." Felicity smiled.
"Do you think I was hatched yesterday?" Mismagius deadpanned to Reshiram. "For shame, Reshiram!"
Reshiram glared at Mismagius before firing another Fusion Flare at it.
"Cut it out!" Mismagius glared, shooting another Phantom Force. 'Might as well keep this sucker busy until Zekrom shows up.' she then thought to herself, trying to distract the White Dragon Pokemon.
"Everyone, get in!" Mayor Matt called out from inside of the helicopter.
Everyone else soon came in as Golurk and Mismagius began to attack Reshiram together.
"Go, Golurk and Mismagius!" Felicity cheered.
"Golurk, keep pushing hard!" Juanita told her Pokemon.
Golurk soon pushed against Reshiram while Mismagius made funny faces. Reshiram soon pushed them back with some energy breath, pushing them back and almost making them crash to the ground before they soon flew right back up for more.
"Not going down that easily!" Mismagius glared.
"You know it's funny." Vincent said.
"That Reshiram is attacking Golurk and Mismagius?!" Victoria asked in concern.
"Oh, no, no, I don't mean that," Vincent replied. "It's just that we've been on a Pokemon adventure for a while, but we haven't even seen or heard from Team Rocket."
"Found them." Estelle said as she pointed to where Team Rocket was.
Butch, Cassidy, and Raticate seemed to be climbing against a mountain that Golurk and Mismagius nearly fell by. The mountain then broke apart and Zekrom soon came, flying right out, passing by them as they nearly fell off.
"What was that?!" Cassidy gasped.
"Need a lift?" Estelle smirked at Team Rocket.
3h ago"Brats!" Cassidy called out with a glare.
"Hello, there," Estelle giggled and waved to them. "Cassidy... Bingo... So good to see you."
"It's Butch!" Butch glared.
"What about me?!" Raticate added.
"Oh, hello to you too, Raticate," Estelle smirked. "Sorry, can't stay, we gotta go."
"Come back!" Butch and Cassidy demanded.
Mismagius and Golurk soon both got hit and pushed into the castle, but they weren't knocked out just yet.
"Okay... That was a good one... But I'm not quitting." Mismagius grunted. The Ghost-Type Pokemon soon got back up and flew right back.
Golurk soon sat up with her as Reshiram came flying back. The others in the helicopter began to look a little worried as they watched the Pokemon locked in combat with each other. Reshiram soon began to shoot a very big and dangerous fireball toward them which looked like it could destroy Mismagius and Golurk in an instant, but then a new attack stopped it instantly.
"What's that?!" Damon gasped.
"Yes... What was that?" Reshiram demanded.
Eventually, Ash, Akito, Pikachu, and Pupitar were shown to be flying in on Zekrom's back.
"They did it!" Estelle cheered.
"Thank goodness." Felicity looked so relieved to see her friend and cousin along with their Pokemon.
"My turn now!" Zekrom snarled to Reshiram.
"Zekrom." Damon growled to himself.
Reshiram soon shot an energy ball at them, but Zekrom dodged it, shooting one right back.
"Go, Zekrom!" Vincent cheered.
"That's a pretty aggressive looking Pokemon." Susan commented.
"Oh, yeah, I can tell Zekrom's not one to mess with." Seth agreed with his mother.
Reshiram began to attack Zekrom, but the black Dragon Pokemon began to block the attacks as best as it could.
"Okay... I need a rest... Call me if you need me..." Mismagius said wearily, floating by Felicity before going back into her PokeBall.
"You did great, Mismagius, I am so proud of you." Felicity smiled.
Reshiram began to chase after Zekrom after blocking the attack.
"Zekrom, get us down to the castle as fast as you can!" Ash told the Pokemon.
"I'm on it!" Zekrom replied.
'Please Emi please Victini just hold on a little longer.' Akito thought to himself.
Zekrom soon landed, letting them come down to the floor to go and save Emi and Victini before it would be too late. Reshiram then began to chase after Zekrom who flew off after the others ran inside after riding on its back.
"Victini! Emi!" Ash and Akito called out as they ran inside.
Akito soon sent out Rapidash as he already knew what Damon was going to do once they were inside.
"Reinculus!" Damon called out for his Pokemon.
"Hey, jerk!" Rapidash glared at the other Pokemon. "Let's go! Just you and me!"
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt, now!" Ash told his Pokemon.
"And I'll help out!" Rapidash added as he used a fire attack on the Psychic Pokemon, both hitting it instantly.
"Great job, boys." Akito smiled.
Rapidash and Pikachu smiled back before Pikachu began to look worried about Emi. The others in the helicopter began to watch Reshiram and Zekrom fight each other, almost like to the death. Eventually, Reshiram began to fall toward the ground as Zekrom flew after it until both were engulfed by the Dragon Force. Even though it did horrible things, Zekrom still saved Reshiram by carrying it on its back.
"Whew." Vincent sighed.
"That was noble... Zekrom saved Reshiram despite all the trouble." Victoria commented.
Reshiram soon woke up and flew off of Zekrom before they soon faced each other. The Dragon Force then appeared to shatter.
"Enough is enough." Zekrom growled to Reshiram.
"Zekrom is right." Estelle said.
Golurk was soon returned to its PokeBall.
"You did well, Golurk." Juanita smiled proudly.
Reinculus began to fight back at Rapidash and Pikachu.
"Pikachu, use Iron Tail!" Ash commanded.
"Rapidash use flame charge!" Akito added.
"Even I'm sick of YOU!" Pikachu glared at the Psychic Pokemon before attacking it first.
"Wow, Pikachu, that was cool, but check this out!" Rapidash smirked before attacking with its own attack.
Reinculus groaned as the attacks made it hit a wall, but it got ready for another attack anyway, trying to hit them and nearly missed them.
"Hang in there, guys." Akito soothed the Pokemon.
"Sometimes in a search for the truth, sacrifices are required." Damon glared at Akito and Ash.
Akito glared at him for saying that.
"You're wrong 'cuz we don't need that kind of truth!" Ash called out before he began to climb up to save the poor Pokemon and his sister.
Damon growled to them.
"Get out of the way." Reinculus threatened Ash, only to get hit by an Electric Ball from Pikachu.
"Heh! Nice shot, Pikachu!" Akito laughed from that.
"Yeah, nice shot." Rapidash smiled at the Electric Mouse Pokemon.
"No problem." Pikachu smiled back, feeling proud of himself.
Damon soon returned Reinculus as it was unable to battle any further.
"I'm coming, guys!" Ash told Emi and Victini.
Reshiram soon flew into the room which didn't look good for the others.
"Uh-oh..." Akito gulped.
"Reshiram, stop those four." Damon commanded.
Reshiram looked to him before it soon turned its head, not seeming to attack.
"Reshiram, what's wrong?" Damon then asked.
Ash and Akito looked to each other before shrugging as they ran off to get Emi and Victini only to be blocked by the barrier.
"Dang it, forgot about that." Akito groaned.
Pikachu and Rapidash tried to use their power against the Pillars, but it seemed to be no use.
"This ends now..." Reshiram said before shooting an energy ball to help free Emi and Victini, much to the surprise of Ash, Akito, Pikachu, and Rapidash.
"Did not see that coming." Rapidash said.
"I'm so happy and confused all at once." Akito agreed.
The barrier soon broke, finally freeing Emi and Victini. The two soon fell through the air until Akito and Ash dove in to save them. Emi looked completely exhausted from what she and Victini went through.
"Emi..." Akito whispered tenderly as he held her in his arms.
Victini soon opened up his eyes first with a small smile to Ash. "You... You helped me..." he said softly.
"Victini's okay." Pikachu smiled softly.
Emi soon began to wake up next. Akito looked down to her.
"Akito...?" Emi asked softly once she saw him.
"Emi... I was so worried..." Akito said softly. "I'm so glad you're okay. It's all going to be okay now, I promise."
"I'm glad to hear that." Emi smiled.
Akito smiled back before giving her a hug and she then hugged him back, giving him a kiss.
"Zekrom. Come." Reshiram called as it landed in front of Damon.
"I'm right here!" Zekrom replied, joining Reshiram.
"But why, Reshiram... Why?!" Damon asked.
"I can hear the land's anger." Reshiram glared at him.
"AKA the Dragon Force has been disturbed." Emi added.
"Damon, the Vale is in deep trouble." Juanita told her son as she and the others rushed over.
"It can't be!" Damon cried out as he went to take a look over the balcony.
Reshiram and Zekrom soon flew out together as it looked like they had a job to do, and where they soon used their attacks on the clouds below to show the land was in trouble. The clouds then cleared out to show the grounds.
"Whoa, that was like a comet or something." Seth commented.
Damon soon realized what was going on. "Oh, no... The Vale from my mother's dream... How could that be wrong?" he then gasped.
"We have to get the sword back where it was placed." Emi told him.
"Do you think that will work?" Damon asked.
"I know it's what the Pokemon would want." Emi replied bravely.
"It's true." Rapidash nodded.
"Of course... The Sword of the Vale will once again restrain the Dragon Force!" Damon then realized. "Reshiram, Zekrom, lend me your power!"
The two Dragon Pokemon then let out roars as the castle glowed with the Dragon Force before they flew down together, getting sucked into the Dragon Force.
"Crud." Akito said.
"This is not our day..." Felicity sighed to herself.
The Dragon Force soon absorbed the Sword of the Vale before hitting Damon's other Pokemon with it.
"The Dragon Force reversed on itself!" Mayor Matt realized.
"What does that mean exactly?" Vincent asked.
"The castle is starting to crumble!" Damon cried out. "Look, Mattus, you must get everyone out."
"Right, Damon," Mayor Matt nodded to him. "EVERYONE, THIS WAY!"
"Coming along." Vincent said.
Victini grunted and whimpered a bit in Ash's hold.
"Victini." Ash frowned in concern.
"Don't worry, we'll be out of here soon." Akito told Victini.
"Guys, come on!" Iris called out.
Carlita soon brought out her Pokemon to get them out of the castle while some others went to the helicopter.
"Damon!" Juanita called out to her son.
"You go on ahead!" Damon called back.
"We're not leaving anyone behind." Estelle said.
"You guys gotta get away from here." Damon told them.
"But Damon!" The others protested.
"Guys, go," Damon urged them. "I've got to do this alone."
"You sure?" Emi asked.
"I know what I'm doing." Damon replied.
"Guys, hurry up!" Cilan called out from inside of the helicopter.
Ash soon cradled Victini and tried to run with him, only to be blocked by the barrier.
"NO!" Akito cried out.
"Not good." Emi frowned.
The Pillars of Protection seemed to grow a bit stronger.
The barrier then pushed Ash back as he tried to back up with Victini.
"Victini can't get past." Ash grunted.
"The barrier's closing in!" Damon warned.
"This is bad." Emi said.
The castle soon began to tilt a bit.
"Whoa!" Akito and Emi yelped before they soon slid across the floor with Damon, Ash, and Pikachu.
Luckily, they all grabbed a ledge before they could fall out the windows, however, Damon saved the others by keeping them on the edge before he soon began to fall from the edge himself.
"Damon!" Emi yelped.
The castle then shook a bit as it kept gliding through the sky before shooting high up as it began to storm. A bunch of other Pokemon soon flooded out of the castle.
"Pikachu, Victini, Akito, Emi, stay close to me!" Ash cried out.
"We're all here!" Akito replied as they huddled close together as this looked very scary and dangerous.
They soon flew through a castle as it seemed like they were going to outer-space.
"Uh-oh, we're headed to outer-space." Emi gulped.
"That can't be good..." Akito said nervously.
"I-It's so cold..." Ash shivered. "Pretty soon... We're gonna run out of air! We gotta think... What can we do?!"
Reshiram and Zekrom were shown to be flying out the castle before Golurk was shown to be carrying Damon.
"Guys, listen, you'll make it!" Damon called out to them.
"You're right." Akito nodded.
"Now, destroy the Pillars of Protection!" Damon commanded to the Dragon Pokemon. "We've got to release all the energy!"
Reshiram and Zekrom then obeyed Damon's command, beginning to destroy the Pillars of Protection so that Victini could finally be free.
"This way!" Akito told Ash and Emi before running one way.
"You got it." Ash and Emi told him.
Ash ran a bit, though panted as he seemed to be getting a bit weak while holding onto Victini. Pikachu then tried to help by using Thunderbolt on the Pillars which soon made them clash together, trapping them by accident.
"Oh... Great..." Akito groaned, though he didn't blame Pikachu.
"We'll need a stronger attack." Emi said.
"Guys, you can't give up because you've been chosen by the great Dragon Pokemon!" Damon called out to them.
"Me? Give up? No way!" Ash and Akito replied in unison.
"There's gotta be a way to get out of here with Victini!" Akito hoped.
Emi soon remembered Victini's attack. "Victini, you can get us out of here." she then said.
"He/I can?" Akito and Victini asked.
"It must be our only way out of here." Emi replied with high confidence.
"Cool." Victini smiled.
"I know you can do it, Victini," Emi told him. "I might not be Princess Ami, but I love and believe in you as much as she did."
"I guess it's up to me... I'm going to help you all..." Victini said as he tried to be brave for all of them.
"You can do it." Akito smiled at Victini.
"Here I... GO!" Victini said before using his power, beginning to warm the others up a bit as it was heat based since they were so cold from being in space.
"Keep going! Keep going!" Emi told Victini.
"I'll do it for all of you... My friends!" Victini called out as he spread out, using his powers on the Sword of the Vale to free them.
'Here goes nothing.' Akito thought to himself.
Emi hugged Ash and Akito instantly. Akito blushed from the hug before hugging Emi right back while Ash did the same. Victini fell at first from shooting out his power, coming on the floor, but smiled confidently before he tried more. And as he tried again and again it soon worked as the Pillars of Protection broke apart.
"Victini did it!" Emi beamed, hugging Akito a bit tighter. "He really did it!"
"He sure did." Akito smiled.
Ash and Pikachu both looked very amazed at what Victini had done.
"Victini," Akito and Emi looked so proud of their Pokemon friend. "You did it, Victini!"
Damon looked amazed from what had just happened. There was a new glow that then cast into the sky as it seemed like it was now dark as night outside. Ash tried to get up from holding onto Pikachu, but he still seemed a little too weak to stand up fully, and eventually, the Sword of the Vale was coming back down to Earth.
"We're going down." Emi said.
"Thank goodness," Akito said before hugging her. "You okay?"
"Yes, I feel fine, thank you." Emi smiled, hugging him back. "Oh, I'm so glad you're here with us."
"I'm happy too." Akito smiled back.
Eventually, Carlita flew by with Hydreigon while the helicopter flew toward the Sword of the Vale. Reshiram and Zekrom soon used their power to help bring the Sword of the Vale back down to Earth, along with Golurk.
"What is that anyway?" Akito asked, seeing Damon's other Pokemon again.
"I believe that's a Sigilyph." Emi replied.
"Nice." Akito said.
Eventually, Damon did his part as Ash was given a blanket from being still rather cold from the space travel.
"Ash?" Pikachu smiled once he saw Ash waking up.
"Pikachu!" Ash smiled back before they shared a hug together.
"You're awake." Akito smiled back.
Damon seemed to smile a bit. Carlita soon flew in with Iris and Seth as they rode on Hydreigon's back.
"Ash! Pikachu! Akito! Emi!" Iris smiled as she came down.
"You're okay!" Axew added.
"We're happy that you're alright." Seth smiled.
"You alright?" Carlita asked her brother.
Damon smiled and nodded, though he still had some work to do.
"The leading edge of the Dragon Force!" Mayor Matt called to the others from the helicopter. "I can see it!"
Damon nodded as he heard that.
"Is that where the castle goes?" Carlita asked.
"Yes, exactly," Damon replied. "That's the only way to calm down the Chaotic Dragon Force."
"Yep." Emi nodded.
"Damon! You've got one shot at this!" Juanita called out to her son.
Damon focused very hard as he did his part while the Pokemon did theirs before they seemed to be landing in the special spot, and which calmed down the Dragon Force.
