You see Blade arguing with a Midrevus.

Blade: "For the last time, this is totally fair. You turned me into an Eevee, I turned you in a Misdrevus! You still have powers!"

Misdrevus: "Mis Misdrevus dre!"

Blade: "O yeah? Well your a- Oh hi! Just having a little chat with Hex here. Don't be alarmed if you can't understand her, I just set the universal translator from 'pokemon in general' to 'eevee'."

Hex: "MISDREVUS!"

Blade: "Sorry, you can't use it, only I can use it. So until you learn to behave, or find something that can change me back, I'll turn the device on."

Obviously frustrated, Hex leaves the room.

Blade: "Now that that is over, Read and Review!"

Chapter Eight: Absolute Power

It was eight in the morning and Sabre, Luna and Soleil haven't returned from their exercise. Justin was beginning to worry. He saw them just as he was about to go searching for them. The first thing he noticed, they were soaking wet. "Why are you soaked?" He asked. When he received what he translated as a 'I don't want to talk about it' look, he said "Oh, err, nevermind." After the trio dried off their fur, Eon thought of an idea. "I've been thinking, Moonfall has had no contact outside the temple, correct?" After a moment Sabre said "I think so. Where are you going with this?" "Since we are near the Cerulean Cave, let's see if Mewtwo woould be willing to aid in our quest."

"Mewtwo!? That super powerful pokemon that Team Rocket created?" asked Jason, who was obviously shocked. "The very same. I theorize that since Mewtwo is a artificial pokemon, he might have an advantage over Moonfall." as Eon explained, Sabre became increasingly tired. She dismissed it as a symptom of escaping a pack of crazy eeveelutions. She yawned and curled up in a ball and drifted into sleep.

Sabre found herself back in the council's room, but only the dead king was there. "Welcome back Sabre, I trust you are well." "Why did you bring me back?" Sabre asked. "To tell you something of great importance. I have only recently in your time that there is a way for you to return to human while keeping your ability it understand pokemon." answered the dead king. "So what is it then? You gonna turn me into some half-eevee half-human thing or just make me human now?" "No, the council opposes that we interfere after the last session. But I learned of a great secret that you will learn in due time." "Why not tell me now and get it over with?" asked Sabre. "Now that is out of character for you." "So is the fact that I want to run and hide from Moonfall thanks to these damn instincts." "Touché. But the answer you seek lies in the temple, search for it." And like that, Sabre woke up, in the arms of Justin.

"Eevee?" Justin looked down and saw that Sabre was awake. "You want down?" he asked. Sabre didn't know, it was kinda nice being carried and but she still wanted to hang on to her dignity. She gave in to instinct and shook her head in response. Justin just smiled and started to pet Sabre, who enjoyed it, but also creeped her out a little knowing the fact that she was enjoying it. As soon as they reached the Cerulean Cave, Sabre jumped down from Justin's arms and signaled the others to stop. "What is it Sabre?" asked Justin. "Vee vee, Eevee." "Why can't we understand her?" asked Justin. "The collar must have run out of power. Don't worry, it'll recharge in an hour." replied Eon. After hearing this, Sabre decided that if the collar was out of power, she didn't need it. But when she tried to get it off, she fell over and both humans laughed.

"Ha ha, laugh it up now. You might be next." Sabre said even though they couldn't understand her. Once Justin finally stopped laughing, he said "Alright, lets go get Mewtwo." But when he tried to enter the cave, Sabre nudged him away. "What's wrong?" Knowing that she had to use some form of sign language, Sabre pointed her paw at Justin then to the cave and shook her head. "You don't want me to go?" Sabre nodded her head, right before she did the same to Eon. "You want to go alone? But Mewtwo might slaughter you!" exclaimed Justin. Sabre shook her head and went into the cave. "Don't do anything we'll regret." whispered Eon.

The second Sabre entered the cave, her senses went into overdrive. Her instincts and common sense were waging war against her will power. After about half an hour, Sabre found Mewtwo, standing still as if waiting for something. When she finally managed to get a death grip on her instincts, she went forward towards Mewtwo. But as just as she was about to speak up, an explosion threw her back into a stream behind her. Is there some law against me having a trip where EVERYTHING goes as plan? Sabre thought to herself.

"Sabre, it is good to see you again. I hope you thought more about my offer." Sabre groaned loudly, recognizing the voice that was dripping with arrogance, then said "I have a deal for you. You release Vaporeon and head back to wherever you came from, or I kick you butt!" After Sabre finished, she felt a psychic force pick her up and bring her to Moonfall. "So, not even being an Eevee will change your mind. Very well, it seems I will have to do this the hard way then." But to make the situation even more crazy, Mewtwo unleashed a Psycho Cut onto Moonfall, causing him to fly into the stream and to drop Sabre. "Sabre, even though we haven't met, I know of you. Not many are willing to cause trouble for the Time-Space pokemon. Why are you here?" "To get your help, and ow. That guy you just sent swimming, he did this to me, and a friend of mine thought you might help." Sabre was going to continue, but was nailed by a Hydro Pump from Moonfall, causing her to fly strait towards Mewtwo, who caught her with Psychic.

"Care to introduce yourself?" Moonfall said almost casually, "I don't think we've met properly. I am Moonfall, the High Priest of Evolution and rightful ruler of all pokemon." "I am Mewtwo, I have been created to be the ultimate fighter." Mewtwo lunged at Moonfall with Psycho Cut, but Moonfall evaded it with ease and struck back with Shadow Claw. "What do you mean by created?" he asked in confusion. "I am an artificial pokemon made using the DNA of Mew and today, I shall be your downfall." As soon as Mewtwo was done, he launched a Psychic at Moonfall, who merely shrugged it off. Sabre took the opportunity of Moonfall's distraction to find somewhere for cover. But as soon as she found a place to take cover, he saw Justin running towards the fight, pokeballs ready.

"Justin! What are you doing here?!" yelled Sabre. Justin released his team and told them to attack Moonfall while not getting in Mewtwo's way. Caught off guard by the by the reinforcements (deja vu!), Moonfall was driven back. Soleil saw Sabre behind some rocks and rushed over to her, grabbing Sabre by the mane and ran away from the battle. "What are you doing!?" Sabre asked. Using Psychic to carry Sabre to answer the question, Soleil said "Protecting you, Justin heard the explosion and rushed inside to get you out of here." "I can handle myself!" Sabre said in protest "Did Justin forget that? Did you?" Soleil stopped at the question. "I-I'm sorry, normally Eevees would be screaming for help in a situation like this. My instincts lead me to my actions." "Forget it, I've been having instinct issues as well. And a normal situation is overrated on my team." Sabre said with a smile.

As soon as Soleil put Sabre down, they rushed to rejoin the battle. When they got there, they could see that Moonfall was clearly winning, but Mewtwo wasn't backing down. "Sabre!" Sabre turned around to see Justin, who surprisingly wasn't knocked out. "What the hell are you doing here!? You need to get out!" Moonfall, saw this and said "Ah, so your friends with young Sabre here now aren't you? Since I am generous, I will let you join her if you hand over the amulet." Sabre growled at Moonfall signaling that she would rather be in a pokeball than let him have his way.

An idea formed in Moonfall's head. Since Sabre wasn't really concerned about what happpened to her, why not see what would happen if her friend shared the same fate. He mentally frowned as he remembered that the process would take longer as the newcomer wasn't wearing the amulet But then again, nobody but him knew. "So Sabre, you don't worry yourself over what happens to you? Well let's see what happens when your friend suffers the same fate." He launched a blue orb at Justin, who was promtly sent flying backwards. Sabre rushed to his side, avoiding stray attacks. "Justin! Are you ok?" she asked.

Justin managed not to be knocked out by the blast, but felt like he was dreaming. "Yeah, I'm fine, aside from the fact that I just understood you." It took Justin a second for reality to sink in. "Wait, what?!" He quickly checked himself for any physical changes. He didn't find any, yet. "We need to get out of here!" yelled Sabre as a thunder attack nearly hit her.

As Justin recalled his pokemon, Sabre rushed over to Mewtwo's side and used Protect to shield him as he recovered. Then Moonfall used Feint to break the Protect and Sabre cringed in pain as Mewtwo launched a surprise attack sending Moonfall into the stone wall. Mewtwo took this moment to Teleport them out of the cave and to Eon's location, who said "Let me guess, Moonfall followed you into the cave." As Justin explained what happened, Sabre released her team and they asked what happened. "I went to see Mewtwo, Moonfall attacked, Justin can speak pokemon, I got hit hard, the usual." Lucario went over to Sabre's bag to get several items that would help as Gardevoir picked Sabre up to check her injuries. "Nothing a Sitris berry won't fix. You'll be fine."

Justin walked over to Sabre's team and was met by several stares. Z decided to speak up as Lucario tossed a Sitris berry Sabre's way. "Soo, you can understand me, right?" "Yes Z, I can. That priest is putting me through what Sabre's going through." Not believing Justin, Nova called him a stinking liar that thought he was smart enough to pull a prank like that. "Nova, if you say call me that again, you'll have a nice long chat with Electivire." Nova stayed silent after that for a while. "Now that we have Mewtwo's help, I suggest we make our way to the temple to see if we can take down Moonfall." said Eon as he walked over, Mewtwo not far behind.

To be continued

Blade: "So how was it? Just so you know, Sabre and Justin are not in love, Justin actually sees Sabre as the sister he never had."

Sabre: "Yeah, but since I turned into an Eevee, he's been treating me like a little sister, and what was with me being picked up that much in the chapter?"

Blade: "... Moving on, please leave a Review!"

Sabre: "What aren't you telling me?"

Blade: "I'd rather not discuss that right now."
