Chapter 9-Team Neptune's return.
We left with the gym leader to the plaza where we met a girl with long sliver hair and blue eyes. She ran to us when we reached the plaza. "Fumito! Team Neptune are at the edge of the plaza." She told us revealing the gym leader's name is Fumito. "Ok Fusa lets get going." He said and we all ran to the edge of the plaza. Team Neptune we're on the set up stage being the announcement when we arrived. "We should get Officer Jenny to help us shut this down." Calum suggested. Fusa nodded. "I'll go, you all stay here and make sure you don't loose them." She told us before hurrying off.
Team Neptune did the same presentation as before. I wasn't really listening. I kept thinking about how we could stop them. When they revealed the human scizor, the crowd grew bigger and Fumito lead us closer to the stage. Everything was going well until one of the grunts looked at me. He looked me right in the eye and his face changed and he whispered something to the grunt beside him. The whisper continued to spread until it reached the leader. He stopped talking and turned to the human scizor and whispered something to it. Calum and I looked at each other. "Do you think they recognised us?" he asked surprised. I nodded not believing it myself. There was clinking noise as the chains holding the mutation. It made a horrible screech and turned to face us. "Return your Pokémon and get out of here!" Fumito told us. I returned oshawott and Calum and I obeyed his orders. I didn't want to face that thing anyway. We ran back to the Pokémon centre and stopped to catch our breath. "I hope Fumito is ok," I said putting oshawott's pokéball away. Calum told nurse joy about the situation. She went to the back to make calls.
An hour passes and Fusa and Fumito come into the Pokémon centre. I'm happy to see they are both ok. "Well we have bad news and good news." Fusa began. We all sat down at a table. I let eevee and oshawott out. "What's the bad news?" Calum asked. "Team Neptune managed to escape. However we did manage to catch the mutation." Fumito told us. I was angry that they couldn't catch those crooks but was glad they didn't have that weapon. "They will probably be more careful next time because they seemed to recognise you. We have to call off the search for now and try to get all the gym leaders aware of what is happening. Then we can locate them." Fusa finished. I understood why chasing them would be pointless now. "So what will we do?" I asked. Fusa sighed. "I'm afraid your lives are in danger. You should continue your journey and inform us of sightings." She said. I was sad we couldn't help. Calum got up looking at me. "Of course but before we go…can we challenge your gym. Fumito rose. "Oh yes of course! Lets go now!" He said turning to the exit. We followed him out.
The whole town was in chaos. People were running around panicking. There was a lot of damage to the buildings and a few people were injured. Fortunately, no one was killed. When we reached the gym it was deserted. Fumito sighed and let us in. "Now. Who would like to battle first?"
