Disclaimer: Don't own anything!

Chapter 9

Lucario was seething, growling even. So many reason made him furious. The Bariah had been increasing their numbers by the day and he felt like his control was slipping. He had already seen it before. Vidar. The one he thought would be his greatest asset. However, earlier, Lucario realized that Vidar had gained control of himself again. He needed to make it didn't happen again. He also had to make sure some other things didn't happen again.

One, the Bariah couldn't have another win. They had apparently won Mewtwo over. Silently he hoped that the Pokemon he wished to get rid of wouldn't join them and take them out. Someone else to do his dirty work. A win was win and he could always take out Mewtwo later.

Two, Zener couldn't be allowed to escape again, let alone live. He thought he had killed her before when he threw her off the cliff, but apparently the fall, her injuries, or drowning must not have been severe enough. Lucario was sure she was a goner, but he figured the Bariah had found her almost immediately.

They were the main problem. They were the thorn in his side. It was them who littered the world and needed to be destroyed. Well, they would all be soon. Right now, he wanted the Bariah gone. The small organization made of untrue Pokemon that were building up to fight him. The amount of untrue Pokemon was small and if got the upper hand on them then they would be goners. He had to send for a Pokemon able to cross the seas in order to seek and destroy. He grinned and called out.

Lucario went to where the Post Office was and waited with a few other Pokemon. Vidar was included. Lucario knew he would be needing a grass type. The Pokemon they were about to engage would be arriving soon. Lucario looked over the side of the cliff. The waves had gotten rougher as they crashed against the rock. He looked to the sky to see a storm rolling in. Lucario smiled as he knew this storm wasn't natural. It wasn't supposed to storm. He then heard a snorting coming his way. The grin only grew bigger.

"So? Did you get someone?" Lucario asked.

"Oh yeah I did!" The Pokemon who had been controlling the others the entire time said to his leader. "The foolish Pokemon came running when I sent the tease! Oink!"

"Excellent." Lucario praised then felt rain drops. He grinned. "He's arrived."


Zener walked among the Bariah Hideout looking at everyone working so hard. So many Pokemon were training and practicing new moves. Zener smiled as was like that. With the gain of Mewtwo the Bariah was getting stronger. Tsunami told the electric type that he felt they were almost ready. Zener questioned what he meant by almost. Tsunami wasn't sure himself. He said that if Zener had any suggestions to voice them. Zener didn't know and decided to walk around to find out. So far she wasn't noticing much. Training seemed fine. Moves were being learned quickly and effectively. She then looked at the Pokemon. Perhaps this was what Tsunami meant. A lot of the Bariah seemed under powered or simply unevolved. They wouldn't stand much chance in a war if they weren't fully prepared.

Zener knew not every Pokemon wanted to evolve, but despite the desperate thought and somewhat selfish, they couldn't consider feelings. Zener knew force wasn't the way either and that wasn't certainly a way to lead. Zener would have to bring it up to Tsunami. She had other ideas too. She hoped they would be helpful and that they could spare the time.


Seek and destroy. That was the mission. He needed to find the enemies. They were going to hurt others. He couldn't let that happen. With his awesome power he would show them why he is the lord of the seas. He could see the opening up ahead where the enemy awaited their destruction.


Zener walked back to where she would meet Tsunami. If he agreed with her ideas she hoped they would be able to put them in as soon as possible. They sooner they were completed the sooner the nightmare could be over. That was something Zener often thought about. The end. How would this all end? Would it end peacefully or in chaos? She hoped for peace. Her ideal of living together peacefully with one another. Her going back home like nothing ever happened and continue on helping Pokemon in need.

Like that would happen. Something did happen. They all attacked and attempted to kill each other. Zener feared she wouldn't be able to look at her friends the same. Look at Vidar the same. Zener was afraid she'd lose everything. After she fought to stay here and then it all be gone in a blink of an eye. Zener closed her eyes. She was sick and tired of this.

Zener's head snapped up as a quaking rocked her. She looked around and could see everything around her shaking. It couldn't be an earthquake, could it? If so this one rivaled the actual move. It felt like the actual move. Zener gritted her teeth together bracing herself. Then Zener felt another quake, but this one was different. Like it was a tremor for something to emerge. Suddenly the ground around Zener and a few others exploded out and water towered up with it.

Zener knew this wasn't natural. Tsunami wouldn't have picked such a dangerous place to set up base. The spouts of water seemed to have stopped, but the ground and walls of the base had taken major damage. It was almost becoming uninhabitable. They couldn't afford to lose their base. They would have nowhere to go and be sitting Psyduck waiting to be attacked. Zener wondered what caused this. With a burst in the ground, much larger than before, Zener got her answer.

"Gyroooo!" Kyrogre cried as he emerged from the ground as did a rain which from his abilty happened not outside.

Zener was frozen in her tracks. She didn't know what to do. Should she go help the others or attempt to down Kyrogre? She would be ready for anything. She wasn't scared to go up against Kyrogre. She'd been against worse or more like his counterparts or Zener called his cousins. Why was Kyrogre here in the first place?

"Zener!" Zener turned to see Tsunami.

"We need to take this whale down!" Tsunami revealed.

"Right." Zener agreed.

Tsunami and Zener rushed toward Kyrogre. As they got a closer look Zener stopped in her tracks. She looked in the water type's eyes and saw a familiar sight. His eyes were red. The same red she had seen in the others back in the square. Kyrogre wasn't meaning to attack them. He was being forced to attack them.

"Crush Claw!"

"Thunder Bolt!"

Kyrogre was struck by the attacks and knocked Tsunami off before the Thunder Bolt hit him. He cried out at the super-effective move that echoed throughout the cavern. He then quickly turned around at the source of the electricity. There stood a Jolteon. Jolteon. He said something about a Jolteon.

"If you see a Jolteon, eliminate her."

Kyrogre roared again as the order to eliminate the Jolteon came clear into his mind. For the mission to be truly completed the Jolteon had to go. Kyrogre raised himself and fired a Hydro Pump at her. Zener's eyes widen at the fact he was now redirecting his attack at her and fired a Thunder Bolt to counter. Zener's electric type was usually against the power of the attack and although it conducted it went through and right a Zener.

"Look out!"

Zemer felt herself being grabbed and moved. She looked up to see Tsunami had pulled her out of the way in time before the attack could hit. She was lucky. She was also relieved that Tsumani hadn't gotten hit by the attack. She couldn't bear to imagine it. His cry out in pain and then watching him fall to the ground.

"We need to snap Kyrogre out of it. He's being controlled just like the others are." Zener said once they moved to somewhat safe ground. Somewhat being that Kyrogre couldn't see them and wasn't paying any attention.

"Got a plan to go with that assumption?" Tsumani asked.

"Come back to me on that."

"I don't think I can do that."

"Alright…we might have to knock him out. By losing consciousness it might just break whatever is controlling him."

"Knock him out, that will be easy." Tsunami replied.

"Got anything better?" Zener snapped in a mild matter.

"No. Alright. Can you hold him off for a moment?" Tsunami asked the electric type. If they were going to knock Kyrogre out he knew they couldn't do it alone.

"How long you need?" Zener asked with a smirk.

"Two minutes?" Tsunami questioned.

"I'll give all ya need." Zener said before turning toward the whale in front of her.

Tsunami nodded and went off to gather others who were able to fight. He hoped Zener could walk the talk. He needed time and though it was true that in past week or so Zener had grown in strength and also to those around Bariah. Tsunami knew Kyrogre didn't just attack Zener because she was there in front of him or previously attacked. He was fully aware that Zener had been targeted. Lucario was getting desperate to eliminate her. She just wasn't a powerful Pokemon; she had determination; that never give up until it is over attitude which kept her going. That combination and all she done before to prove that made her dangerous. She was a like a queen in chess.

"Thunder Bolt!" Zener cried.

Kyrogre cried out in pain as the electricity struck him. He knew the Jolteon had caused him the damage. The Jolteon was the one he as supposed to take without mercy. He turned toward her and jumped. A Hydro Pump came from his mouth and Zener felt herself being slammed down by the pressure. When the Hydro Pump stopped that felt like a waterfall on top of her she looked up to see Kyrogre coming down with Body Slam. Zener used her weaken legs to jump back, but was caught by the impact that threw her into a wall. She fell down to the ground and groaned. That hurt. Had it been four minutes yet? Heck, she'd want it to have been two minutes and Tsunami didn't take her entirely serious.

"Gyroo!" Kyrogre cried and Zener felt the cavern belonging to the Bariah shake. Earthquake…that was bad.

Zener could feel the ground super-effectiveness wreak havoc through her body. She gritted her teeth and hoped she would have enough strength to put up a fight. Then she heard a sound that would be more worrisome than fainting. The sound of wall breaking apart. Kyrogre's Earthquake was so powerful it was bringing the entire place down. They would have nowhere else to go. Stranded where Lucario could just take them out. Zener attempted to muster enough power for any electric type attack. She couldn't do it.

Zener felt a small stone hit her back. She then looked up to see rocks falling toward her. She had nowhere to go. She had two choices. Either be squished by rocks or Kyrogre. Neither one seemed to have the best survival rate either. Zener quickly hugged against the wall hoping the rocks would fall around her. She closed her eyes and waited…and waited. Zener opened one eye to see the rocks had stopped mid-air and where surrounded in a psychic type energy.

"I assume I no longer owe you Jolteon." Mewtwo said.

Zener was so shocked she was speechless. She would have said something witty in return, but she was having a life moment. She was allowing the adrenaline from almost getting crushed and dying…again, fade.

"Are you okay?" a voice asked pulling her from her stupor. Zener looked to see that Tsunami had arrived with some of the others.

"Yes." Zener answered in a shaky voice.

"Alright everyone, make him faint!" Tsunami commanded. "Gengar, let's get Zener out of…"

"No." Zener denied. "I'm staying."

"You're funeral." Gengar commented.

"Don't worry, you're not invited." Zener rebutted. Life or death moment; yeah, she was over it.

"Plus you won't need one since you're a ghost to begin with." Tsunami added. Zener made a small smile. "Alright, instead of making plans about death, how about life?"

"Like you said, faint." Zener answered.

The others knew nothing more needed to be said. This was a full out battle. The plan was to divide, surround, and hopefully conquer. Zener made herself in eye sight of the water legendary because she seemed to be able to keep his focus than anyone else could. This would give the others time.

"Thunder Bolt!" Zener yelled as she jumped over Kyrogre and electrocuted him. The legendary water type roared and tried to pin point his target. He saw her in front of him like perfect prey. "Ready?"

The others nodded in position ready to bombard the legend. With a cry from Tsunami all the Pokemon attacked with their most powerful move or at least one that was effective. Zener knew her plan would work. Yes, she was confident, but Kyrogre had taken a significant amount of damage since arriving and shouldn't be able to withstand the attack. With a loud roar after getting slammed with Thunder Bolt, Charge Beam, Dark Pulse, Psychic, and a Hydro Cannon Kyrogre fell to the ground with they assumed a faint. He was at least unconscious.

"Is he okay?" Datan asked.

"You're worried about him?" Gengar asked. "I'd be concerned for us."

Tsunami looked over the legendary Pokemon carefully. He nodded before telling them, "He's knocked out. I'd say we better get him back to the ocean while we can. We don't know whose side he's on and I'd rather not find out."

They all agreed and with some difficult convincing and some pleading that got Mewtwo to take Kyrogre back to the ocean far away from them. While he was off on his relocating mission the others decided it best to help make the area livable again.

"You wanted to speak with me Zener?" Tsunami asked the electric type after everything was getting back into order.

"Yeah. You told me to inform you of ideas on how to beat Lucario." Zener stated.

"I suppose. What are you thinking?" Tsunami asked.

"I think some of them need to evolve." Zener told him bluntly.
