Previously, the masterclass semi-finals got underway, and three friends made performances like any other. However, in the end, Serena triumphed above them both, and got her ticket to face Aria in the finals. What will happen?
Serena was in her room on her own, brushing up her four pokemon. She had only ten minutes before going on stage an either her performing or Aria. She had a plan for this final round and was not hesitating one bit to do it, and along with Mega Absol, was her only hope of winning the masterclass this time. Serena knew it was time to pull out the big guns and needed to bring all her pokemon for this last dance. She had taken full advantage of prepping her friends for this final moment. After all that brushing, Serena then spoke up.
She replied "Well, this is it guys. We've been trusting each other for this whole time. Are you guys ready to win?", as she looked at her pokemon with confident eyes. All of her friends replied instantly.
Braixen said "Braixen Brai (I know we can do this guys! Let's do it!)". Pangoro replied "Goro Pango (You bet! We can do this together!)".Sylveon said "Veon Veon (You can count on us Serena. I know you can!)". Absol spoke "Absol Absol (We can do it with my Mega Evolution. I'm ready.)", and with all renewed confidence by their side, she walked out to the stage.
The crowd was waiting in awe when the stage suddenly turned dark once more. A light flickered on Monsieur Pierre and welcomed the finalists. Serena walked out, waving with a huge smile, and then Aria came, smiling brightly among the crowd. Everybody cheered, and the finals soon were underway. Monsieur Pierre announced "It's time for the final round to begin. Our first performance is from our Kalos Queen, Aria!", and with that, Serena left to the side while Aria took the stage. Palermo looking from the top breathed and watched carefully.
Aria then grandly spoke "Ok, let's go", and swiftly, everything was underway. Her Delphox went off with a Mystical Fire, combined with a Signal Beam from Aromatisse. Her new pokemon in Umbreon then used Dark Pulse to turn all the brightness into a exploding ball of grey energy. Many saw the beauty, but everybody noticed she wasn't her usual. She winked and smiled as the had Vivillon finish it with Gust, and her Delphox using Flamethrower. The spiralling fire gave way and ended it with Aria exclaiming "And that's all!", and the crowed cheered delightfully to her, even May, Max, Bonnie and Clemont. Aria smiled and waved to the crowd as she left.
It was then Serena's turn, and she breathed slowly and deeply as she calmly walked to the stage. She looked down, and instantly said "Let's go", and showed a big smile on her face as Braixen, Sylveon and Pangoro appeared from behind her. Braixen used Flamethrower and made a fiery circle around the all the friends. Pangoro then used Stone Edge, with eliminated the fire in a sparkling vortex. Then Sylveon then used Fairy Wind, and at that moment, a figure with wings appeared behind her.
It was Mega Absol, and with a huge smile, Serena propelled herself into the air with all her friends, and commanded the final attacks. Pangoro used Dark Pulse, Mega Absol used Energy Ball, Sylveon used Moonblast and Braixen used Flamethrower, which all came in contact to make an array of flowers, which then exploded into many more, which rained upon Serena and her friends, which made a tower, with Serena and Absol together on top, with Serena replying "Finish!", and winked, and the crowd went wild.
May was close to crying, as was Bonnie. Max and Clemont looked at each other in shock, and Serena's mother was extremely happy. An amazing display was just shown, and Serena, along with Absol, now in it's normal form, waved to the crowd. Aria looked at Serena with amazement and wondered "That was incredible, how much has she done since then?", and Palermo looked very impressed, even clapping for Serena and that lovely performance. Lots of Kalos people saw the performance from different parts of the region, and even other regions saw this amazement, from Kanto to Alola.
Serena then returned to a position on the stage, and Aria walked down. The two titans of performance had made their mark, and it was time to see which would dominate over the other. The time had coming to see who had won.
Was Serena's performance enough to push her over the edge to win the masterclass? Or was Aria still no match for her? All answers to come potentially on Part Ten!
