Hi.
No intro today.
Bye.
Hugh's POV
I groaned, pain shooting about my body as I managed to get up.
Everything had happened so fast, I wasn't quite sure what to make of it.
Rosa…
How was she? I knew she was in trouble, and there wasn't much I could do. I didn't know where she was. For that matter, I wasn't sure where even I was.
I looked around. Darkness was my sole company in this place.
I quieted my breathing, to hear around me. If there were any noises, they were faint. After a while of this, I began to hear a voice.
"Are the targets ready?" the voice asked.
"Well, we aren't sure. Thing is, there are so many meddling trainers, we aren't sure when to fire the attack. I have orders from Mr. Ghetsis himself to keep them locked until we have all those kids in one place. According to him, Kyrem's Glaciate is hard to control, especially at the intensity he wants it to attack at. So we're waiting for all those trainers to be here."
"Huh. Well, how many trainers have they caught already?"
"Hilda, N, Silver, and Rosa. That makes four. Maybe five, if .they decide to get rid of that other kid too, Hugh, was it? The one who has a Quillfish on his head."
My heart began to thump wildly. Ghetsis was here? And he planned on killing us?
White's POV
Arms tied back and ankles tied together, I couldn't really do anything but sit there. To my advantage, however, the grunts were blabbermouths, and shared news every chance they got. So, I was filled in.
For example, when a kid with navy blue hair was caught, I found out pretty quick.
Mainly, I sat silently, trying to find out what was happening, and this was how I spent those miserable hours.
But then it happened.
The sounds of a sobbing girl echoed nearby. I peered over, trying to see who the girl was, when the voices of two men clued me in.
"Quiet," one of the men ordered.
"Let me go," the girl pleaded. My heart skipped a beat. The voice was oddly familiar.
"No! Why would we do that? We spent a long time looking for you, Rosa. We aren't going to just let you go." The other snapped.
Rosa?!
"ROSA! ROSA!" I cried. I flailed about, trying to loosen the ropes, with no luck.
"Hilda?!" Rosa cried back. "Let my sister go, you fiends!"
The men laughed. "Well, thing is, I think letting you go would be easier on us. We'd be fired, or worse, if Hilda was freed. I think she might be the person he wants to kill the most, if N hasn't taken that spot already."
Lyra's POV
Ethan and I strolled the island, looking for some sort of building or something. My pokegear calls weren't the best here, so I guessed this place was far from the rest of Kanto
I got bored, fast.
"Hey, Ethan. Want to play a game?" I suggested, looking over my shoulder.
"We should worry about getting to the main lands of Kanto first," he said, shaking his head. He walked ahead, over to a man dressed in a lab coat.
"Excuse me," Ethan said, " Can you tell us where we are?"
The man smiled. "Why, you're on One Island!"
"Where's that?"
The man pulled out a map of Kanto, pointing out some small specks in the corner.
"One Island is one of a group of islands off the coast of Kanto. It's a quiet place, where not many people live. Why? Are you trying to get back to the mainland?"
I nodded. "We got….off course, I guess."
"Alright. If you go down, over to that port, you'll see a man standing by a boat. He'll be happy to take you back to Kanto. I think you'll need a Tri-Pass, though. Here-" he handed Ethan a card from his pocket. "-and if you need any more help, you can come visit me in the Pokemon Center. I'll probably be fiddling with some gadget or something, I usually am. My name's Celio, by the way."
"Thanks Celio," I said, waving as we walked away.
Blue's POV
The walk down the mountain was long and uncomfortable. Red walked quite a distance from us, not daring to look over or even smile. His frown was so fixtured it appeared frozen to his face.
Leaf and I helped Layla walk down the mountain, placing one of her arms around each of our shoulders. Even she was silent, thinking of what, I don't know.
I looked around, trying to calm my nerves. That was a wasted effort. My mind raced over all the different things happening as I walked with ease. N, Silver, and Hilda were in deep trouble, and we had no leads on them.
I looked over at Red again, who pulled out his phone. Turning it on, he found himself flooded with texts, calls, and other notifications. His eyes squinted as he peered over the screen of his phone.
"No," he whispered, hands shaking.
Leaf looked over. "What's wrong?"
"I know where your friends are. And if we don't rescue them fast, they're doomed."
THEEEEEYYYYYREE DDOOOOOMMEEEDD
