Chapter 8 War of Mothers.

Location Realgam Tower Arena

May couldn't believe it. When she challenged the curly haired brat she had thought she would counter her Blaziken that Garchomp she is so proud of. Never in her wildest nightmares did she think she would be face to face with a Manaphy, her Manaphy. And if that didn't cause her heart to freeze, hearing him call Ursula "Momma" Sure did.

"Where did you catch my sweet little Manaphy, you tramp?" May asked in Rage.

"Yours? Shows what you know. He called me Momma practically the moment he laid eyes on me. So, for the last seven years he has been like a child to me and my husband." Ursula commented with a smirk.

"But he was mine. I am his Momma." May said trying to argue.

She then turned to Manaphy and Said" Manaphy come to momma. Come to Momma Manaphy."

Manaphy just looked coolly at May and shocked her by yelling out" May not momma. Ursu momma. Hate you May."

"B-but I thought I was his m-m-mother." May said as she began to shake and tremble as her former baby's word broke her.

"What do you know anything about being a mother? The joy of carrying your child with you. The need to sacrifice everything so that they have everything they could ever want. Being a mother is more than just being called one. It is still loving them when they hate you. It is sacrificing your dreams to make sure they have a chance at theirs." Ursula yelled finally losing her temper with the delusional young woman.

Scene change sidelines Champion's Crew

"Wow, I haven't seen Ursula that pissed off since Paul called her fat when she was 8 months pregnant." Said Rui.

"Don't remind me, I still have the scars." Said Paul rubbing his side.

"It does make sense though. For all the titles she holds the one she is most proud and defensive of is Mother." Explained Zexal.

"Yeah Roxy and Angie, are the same way with Sterling and Reggie." Remarked Steven.

"I guess you'll feel the same way when Alex is born. Right Rui?" Wes asked his wife.

Scene Change Challenger's crew

"Sweet, May finally found a way to get under that bitch's skin." Said Dawn, grinning to her.

"I don't know Dawn. She might have just opened Pandora's box by mistake." Said Brock, in a rare moment of brain power.

"What do you mean Brock? She's pissed and off balance like Dawn was back at dad's gym." Max asked.

"It's true, Ursula is angry, but she is not off her game. In fact, I think we're about to see her take this serious." Answered Brock.

"Why is that? I mean, I don't see a difference between her and how Dawn acted at the gym." Said Misty

"Ursula is like her Garchomp, and like any dragon the most dangerous are angry mothers." Replied Brock with a very concerned look on his face.

Scene Change Battle

"So, are we gonna get this started, or are you gonna stand there like a shocked statue?" Taunted Ursula.

"I- uh – but- I- Manaphy" May stuttered in shock, unable to even consider giving orders.

"I guess I'll have to start this. Manaphy dear, use rain dance. Ursula calmly instructed

And without May even to comprehend what was going on Ursula, made it literally start raining on her parade.

"Manaphy use bubble beam." Called Ursula.

As its mother instructed Manaphy let lose a high speed stream of bubbles, that Impacted May's uninstructed Blaziken.

"Blaze-"Blaziken grunted as it took the surprisingly powerful attack.

"M-manaphy stop." May yelled at the blue water type.

It was then that Manaphy looked at May, and it could see a mixture of rage, shock, and sorrow on her face.

"Manaphy, use water pulse." Called out Ursula, while showing no mercy.

Manaphy let loose its attack, fighting its old mother figure, knowing she was not the same girl who hatched him so long ago.

As May watched to sphere of water impact her starter, she felt rage, not at Manaphy, but at the witched that had charmed her baby into abandoning her. She suddenly felt her rage channel into an idea.

"Blaziken, come back for a moment. "She called with an evil grin.

Ursula watched as the fire fowl leapt back toward the brunette with a confused look on her face. "What could she be up to?" She said quietly to herself.

"Blaziken use fire spin now." May ordered the fire fowl. Snapping Ursula out of her thoughts.

Ursula was shocked when the fire spin not only surrounded Manaphy, but her as well.

"With all due respect, the only one allowed to get me hot under the collar is my husband. "She said with a bit of bite in her voice.

"Don't worry, he'll be feeling his own heat soon enough." May said with a grin that worried Ursula.

"Blaziken use Blast Burn." May Ordered with an evil grin.

It was then that Ursula saw with horrified eyes that Blaziken's attack wasn't aimed at Manaphy, but was aimed at Zexal and Maria.

"NOOOOOOOOO" Ursula yelled in fear and shock.

"Yes" Screamed May, while seeing Ursula was well and truly trapped. "You took away my baby, now I'll take away yours" She Thought.

As everyone saw the overpowered flame headed for the remaining members of the Hydras family, they started to scream.

"Boss" Yelled the elites as their boss was about to get roasted.

Just as the flames we about to hit the father and daughter it was impacted by an even bigger stream of blue flame cancelling it out.

As everyone was looking for the source of the second flame, out of the sky was heard a massive "ROOOOOAAAAAARRRRR" with it appeared a dragon to end all dragons. As it landed in front of the Champion the group gathered took note of its appearance. It was black, at least the back of it. Its underbelly was a rich blue, and it had piercing red eyes and blue flames matching the color of the flames from before coming from the corners of its mouth.

"You're late old friend." Zexal said to the blue dragon in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Char, Char" It replied back with its own draconian grin.

It was then that the Dragon took a look around and spotted a yellow rat perched atop Max's shoulder, and growled at it.

"That's enough Charizard. We'll settle this tomorrow." Zexal ordered in a tone that said no exceptions.

Charizard, not to be denied started roaring at the rodent, in an attempt to intimidate it.

"THAT IS ENOUGH!" Zexal Ordered.

Charizard turned away, and growled in acceptance as he transformed back into his normal, but still menacing appearance.

"We'll talk about this later Charizard" Zexal said in a tone that said he meant it.

Zexal then turned back to the onlookers that had stated gawking at the duo.

With the traitors

"May went too far with this one" Brock said with a sad face. After raising most of his brothers and sisters, he felt kids shouldn't be hurt.

"Who cares about the brat, if the champ had been hurt, I would have lost my chance at taking his title." Complained Max.

"You really are a brat aren't you Max? You realize she could get jail time for this right?" Asked Misty.

"Well I'm for whatever hurts that gold-digging bitch. Who cares what she loses, just as long as she does lose." Said Dawn, not caring about any of her friends' concerns.

With the elites

"Thank Arceus the Charizard got here when he did." Said Roxy with zero of her playful attitude.

"Amen to that babe. Said Steven, Agreeing with his wife. "Attacking the boss with get you hurt, attacking Maria with get you killed."

"Big bro had it handled you guys. No way He was gonna let Maria get hurt." Said Angie with an arrogant grin on her face.

"Then why were you screaming loud enough to make me half deaf babe?" Asked Paul with a shit eating grin.

"Paul, stop teasing her. We were all scared for Zexal and Maria." Came the gentle voice of Rui.

"Now we just see who explodes first, Zexal or Ursula?" Commented Wes.

The battle

May was in shock that her planned failed on such a level, while she didn't put any real thought into it, it just seemed full proof, at least in her state of mind. She suddenly got a shock as not only did she suddenly see Blaziken get blasted by a huge jet of water, but the fire spin trapping Ursula and Manaphy has vanished.

As she looked across at Ursula she saw her eyes were hidden by her hair, and if she was honest, she was scared, VERY SCARED.

"You Think I'll let you off easy after that stunt? That I would hesitate in getting payback? No Chance in hell. This is for my FAMILY YOU BITCH" Ursula said quietly, while screaming the rest.

"MANAPHY FULL POWER HYDRO PUMP, NO MORE HOLDING BACK!" She screamed in fury. She was tired of talking, now was the time for brutality.

Then as May watch in horror as her (former) baby let loose a hydro pump worthy of the title ;Prince of the Sea; onto the shocked Blaziken, blasting it into the wall of the stadium, while leaving a massive crater at its impact, and a trench along the ground in its wake.

"Blaziken is unable to battle. That means the winners are Manaphy, and Ursula." Called the ref.

Then as May recalled her Pokémon, she saw Ursula walking over with no signs of her showing sympathy. As she got closer May closed her eyes in fear. Then she was suddenly aware of Ursula talking softly in her ear. Then she opened her eyes and saw Ursula walking toward her daughter, Husband, and his Charizard with Manaphy in her arms. All the while Ursula's words lingered in her head.

"If you attack my husband I will hurt you, but if you come near my kids, I will destroy you. I am a Coordinator, a wife, and first and foremost I am a mother."

With those words in her ears, May began to weep, knowing why Manaphy had chosen Ursula, and how she had beaten her in the War of Mothers.

Chapter End

I know I have been gone for a LONNNNNNNNGGG Time, and to be frank that is my fault. I just haven't made any time to sit down and write. Between work, a new relationship, my "Issues" I just don't have as much time to think up idea, let alone write them down. I will say I'm sorry for being gone so long, and thank those who still like this story. I can't promise when the next one will be, but I swear neither of my stories is dead, I just need to sort out a better way of doing things.

Charizard is BACK. Quite a few people were asking about Old Pokémon Coming back, well here you go. I have an idea how this will work, so just trust me. If the Ursula thing seems wrong please don't get pissed at me. I'm a GUY, so I'm going off how I THINK a mother would react.
