Meanwhile with Annie and Oakley...
Ariados had trapped Bianca, her grandfather, and Felicity in a web and came back toward Annie and Oakley as they stood with Espeon.
"This is really bad." Felicity frowned.
"Latios, you've got to open your eyes so Latias can see what's happening to us!" Bianca cried out while struggling in the web.
"Of course, sight-sharing!" Felicity smiled.
"Latios, please!" Bianca begged.
Latios soon opened his eyes as he was trapped within the DMA thanks to Annie and Oakley to contact his sister and where Latias's eyes glowed.
"Oakley seems much more evil than Annie." Estelle commented as she held Teddy in her arms.
"You can say that again." Emi said.
Oakley was soon bringing back the Pokemon who terrorized Alto Mare years and years ago back to life.
"Oh, my..." Teddy gulped.
Ingrid's eyes seemed to glow blue as this was happening. "No... She can't do this!" she cried out while seeming to have an episode during Oakley's business.
"This is very, very bad." Kabutops said.
"Kabutops, I think this is what Mother and Father warned us about for when we go visit Grandmother in her tribe." Ingrid told her Pokemon.
Oakley soon sent the two Pokemon out to get Latias.
"It's the fossils!" Emi gasped.
"The evil fossils." Vincent glared with his Vulpix.
Latios soon screamed out of pain from the electricity.
"Think about what you're doing!" Bianca's grandfather told the girls.
"All right, you two," Oakley smirked. "Bring me back that Latias."
The two fossilized evil Pokemon soon went out to find Latias.
"NOOO!" Latios cried out before closing his eyes in despair.
Latias soon blinked as she stopped seeing what her brother was seeing.
"Latias, are you okay?" Ingrid comforted as Misty and Brock looked shocked.
"Brother is hurt." Latias frowned.
"Guys, what is going on?" Misty asked.
"I think there's trouble." Brock said.
"Everybody in this city is in trouble." Ingrid informed.
"I agree." Estelle said.
"There must be something we can do." James hoped.
"Yes, mostly saved Latios." Ingrid replied as she tried to comfort Latias through spiritual medication.
"And that's what we're going to do." Akito said.
"We must..." Ingrid said before getting into a prayer stance. "Even if I must contact The Great Spirits of my grandmother's tribe."
"Let's go then." Emi said.
"I shall contact your spirit animals." Ingrid said.
"Spirit Animals?" The others asked.
"Yes," Ingrid explained. "It's an animal who guides and protects your spirit. They're very important to my people."
"Nice." Ash said.
Kabutops joined Ingrid in the prayer since he was part of the family.
"We better go now." James said.
"That's the smartest idea you've ever had." Jessie smirked.
"Oh, you stop that, Jessie!" James glared.
"Uh, I think something might be happening to the windows." Meowth said as he noticed something.
The others soon took a look only to see that he was unfortunately right. Something was happening to the windows to keep anyone from escaping. There were sharp crystal-like trappings on each window.
"What is that?!" Jessie yelped.
"How should we know?!" Vincent asked.
"Stop this, sil vous plait!" Felicity cried out, she looked quite miserable as Oakley was in control.
Annie was even starting to get concerned about her partner. Bianca and her grandfather just couldn't believe that Oakley could be so evil.
Luckily, half the group was able to get out.
"Come on, we gotta go!" Emi called out as she took one gondola with the others with her.
"And away we go." Larvitar smiled.
"Stay close, Larvitar, I don't want you to get wet." Akito hugged his Pokemon.
"Okay, Dad." Larvitar smiled.
"Ash, do you know where to go?" Emi asked her brother.
"It's worth a try." Ash replied as he took the paddle.
"Let's get to the museum." Mismagius said.
"That's a good idea, Mismagius." Emi agreed.
"And away we go." Teddy said.
Vulpix nuzzled up against Vincent as he seemed to be scared of the water.
"Vulpix, are you afraid of swimming?" Vincent asked.
"Just worried I might drown..." Vulpix shivered.
"I'll make sure you don't drown." Vincent said.
Vulpix nuzzled up against him. "I miss Mama..."
"It's okay, Vulpix, it's okay." Vincent comforted as he hugged his Fire Fox Pokemon.
Soon enough, they made their way out. Latias was leading ahead of them on the way to where the others were, especially her brother.
"Hopefully, this will be easy." Vulpix said.
Misty admired Ash's abilities, but she seemed to be getting over a crush that she had on him since they had first met.
"We should try to help them." Jessie said.
"Luckily I had a big breakfast." James said before he took out a paddle to help.
"Same here." Meowth said as he joined him.
"Then let's go." Jessie said.
James and Meowth paddled as hard as they could to join the others in the rescue mission for Latios.
"I hope Felicity's okay..." Mismagius sighed.
"I'm sure she's alright." Estelle said.
"INCOMING!" Teddy cried out once he saw a certain Pokemon in the air. "AERODACTYL!"
"Oh, no!" Latias gasped until she was then caught by the Pokemon.
"Hey, get off her!" Akito glared as he stepped on the stern of the gondola and hopped onto the Aerodactyl's back.
"Go, Akito!" Estelle cheered.
"Get off of Latias!" Akito glared at the Aerodactyl.
The Aerodactyl was becoming difficult.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Ash commanded.
Pikachu charged himself up and zapped against the Aerodactyl.
Akito giggled. "That tickles!"
"Of course it does." Emi smiled.
"Oh, no! Latias!" Akito gasped as the Pokemon fell into the water.
"Latias!" Pikachu cried out.
Akito then dove in to save Latias while turning into a merboy. Estelle began to pray for Latias. Akito looked all around for Latias while under the water. A glowing spirit animal seemed to rise behind Estelle to empower her.
"The Great Spirits... They have answered my prayers." Ingrid looked with her Kabutops.
"That's great." Kabutops said.
"Felicity Forte, thou shall be punished and not exist..." A sharp female voice called.
"Who's that?" Estelle wondered.
A beautiful blonde woman with a golden crown and a green dress glowered.
"That's the Enchantress that Uncle Forte told us about!" Vincent recognized.
"Hello, meddling children." The Enchantress glared.
The Pokemon began to attack the Enchantress.
The Enchantress laughed at them before waving her scepter back at them which froze them into ice cubes. "Silly little creatures..." she mocked them. "This is all very pointless as my descendants Annie and Oakley will rule the world starting with Alto Mare."
"Why, you evil witch!" Estelle glared.
"Oh, if it isn't the little Sugarplum Princess?" The Enchantress smirked. "What're you going to do? Twirl in a tutu for me to death?"
Estelle began to recite a spell that she learned from her spell book. The Enchantress laughed as she caused chaos for all of them.
"Maestro Forte was right," Mismagius glared. "You bewitched him during the curse, you made him evil during the spell! He used to be a very nice man and almost like a father figure for Prince Adam and you changed him!"
The Enchantress was soon starting to turn to ice by the spell Estelle was reciting. "What are you doing, child?!"
Estelle didn't answer her as she continued the spell to get rid of her. After a while, the Enchantress was now an ice statue.
"Phew!" Estelle wiped her forehead. "Aunt Twilight's right, that spell is a piece of work."
"What should we do with her?" Vincent asked.
Vulpix came behind the ice statue and lifted his back leg.
"Vulpix!" Vincent laughed.
"I say we send her into space." Emi said.
"That sounds like a fitting punishment." Estelle agreed.
"So she doesn't bother anyone ever again." Emi folded her arms firmly.
"I'll throw her into space." Ash said.
"That's right, Akito's energy boost." Emi smiled to her brother.
"Yeah, Akito seems busy at the moment, so I'll do the honors." Ash decided. The young, aspiring Pokemon trainer soon grunted for show and lifted up the frozen enchantress before throwing her like a football into space.
"Looks like Circe the Enchantress is blasting off again~" Mismagius smirked.
"Nice one." Meowth smirked back.
"Thank you." Mismagius giggled.
Akito soon came out from under the water and a spirit animal seemed to glow behind him.
"Uh, Akito, I think I see your spirit animal." Emi said once she noticed.
"Huh?" Akito turned around to see a wolf that nearly looked like Balto.
The spirit animal looked back and howled toward Akito.
"Grandmother must be channeling us from home." Ingrid pondered.
"Cool, Akito's spirit animal is a wolf." Vincent smiled.
"They shall all find their spirit animals soon enough." Ingrid said to herself.
"Ingrid, does each spirit animal have a meaning?" Emi asked.
"Yes, they all have their individual meaning," Ingrid replied. "Usually we hold a ceremony and you are given a totem of your spirit animal to keep for your individuality."
"So, what does the wolf mean?" Ash asked.
"Intelligence, leadership, and stronger sense of family." Ingrid replied.
"That describes Akito in three ways." Estelle smiled.
Aerodactyl snarled as he soon came back.
"RUN!" Ingrid told the others.
"You heard her!" Jessie told them.
They all then rushed to avoid the evil fossilized Pokemon.
"See ya!" James laughed at the evil Kabutops and Aerodactyl.
"Grandmother, please don't let them get Latias." Ingrid prayed.
'This seems easy.' Vincent thought to himself.
Emi tried to get a hold of Latias and ended up riding her through the water canal like when they were in the race as Aerodactyl chased them in the air.
"See ya, Aerodactyl!" Vulpix smirked at the fossilized evil flying Pokemon.
"Hey, Latias, we lost 'em!" Ash smiled to the dragon-like Pokemon.
"Great!" Latias beamed.
"Whew!" Teddy sighed.
"It's okay, Teddy, we're all okay now." Estelle hugged her Teddiursa.
"Thank goodness." Teddy smiled.
"It's gonna be okay." Estelle soothed like the surrogate mother that she was.
Teddy was thankful to be with her.
"Ash, you kinda seem like a slow swimmer..." Akito commented. "You could use a boost like in your body strength."
"Yeah, I guess I could." Ash said.
"Allow me to help," Akito smirked. "If anyone's a strong swimmer, it's a member of my family."
"Um, okay." Ash said.
Akito then decided to turn Ash into a merboy to help him swim quicker.
"Thanks." Ash said.
Akito smiled and they were able to swim much faster now. Ingrid continued to pray for the Great Spirits to help her and giving guidance for her friends.
"Looks like we're clear." Estelle smiled.
"Hurry, we have to save Felicity, Bianca, her grandpa, and Latios!" Emi cried out.
"We will." Vincent said.
"Corsola, we need your help!" Emi called out before tossing her Pokeball to unleash her and Misty's newest Pokemon.
Corsola came out and landed into the water to go with them.
"Oh, Corsola is pretty..." Akito smiled to the coral-like Pokemon.
"I know, right?" Emi also smiled.
The evil Kabutops was soon chasing the others. Ingrid's Kabutops then tackled him down with a glare and decided to fight him.
"Go, Kabu!" Ingrid cheered.
"There's something somewhat familiar about this..." Emi muttered about the two Kabutops' fighting each other. Her mind soon seemed to go back into the past.
She could see that there was clones of Pokemon who were fighting each other against good and evil, and where both Mew and MewTwo were in it. Nurse Joy was even there and she looked devastated to see the Pokemon fighting like this.
"Oh, my..." Emi frowned.
How could she had forgotten all of this? It felt like she was just seeing it for the first time, but she had actually seen it sometime ago. She then remembered what MewTwo had said before he and Mew had disappeared the first time.
"But perhaps for you, these events are best forgotten." MewTwo's voice said.
Emi had tears in her eyes, she had always felt bad for MewTwo and wanted to help him with what he's been through in his life, especially when he thought he was being experimented on as a defenseless slave by those scientists, one of which he had killed.
"Emi?" Estelle asked. "Are you okay?"
"Just... Thinking.." Emi said as she held her head. "I just felt deja vu with that Kabutops against Ingrid's."
"Same here." Ash said.
"Was it maybe a journey you guys had before you met us?" Akito asked.
"I'm not sure..." Ash rubbed his head. "Could it be? No way, it couldn't be, how wouldn't we remember it?"
Emi simply shrugged. Akito and Estelle looked very curious of this, but they didn't say anything as they had their cousin to worry about right now.
