Hey guys here is the tenth chapter of MissingNo's plague. Hope you enjoy it!

Chapter 10

When we walked into Misty's gym, there was nothing there. It looked exactly the same. The platforms led to the edge of the indoor swimming pool within the gym. The gym had an eerie feel to it. I looked around the gym and I saw drowned bodies. One was the Swimmer body and the second was the trainer with the Goldeen. The bodies were pale, bloated and they had blanked out eyes.

"You sure Misty's here?" Nurse Joy asked.

"Where else could she be?" I answered. We reached the edge of the platform and looked around in the darkness. There was nobody in sight.

"Well," said Zack. "Time to go."

Zack headed back and the rest followed. I stood there thinking where Misty could be.

Suddenly the platform beneath me crumbled. I reached out for a hand but all I felt was air. There was a splash and my vision was obscure by the rushing water. I looked around and I saw a giant figure that was about 60 meters. I looked at it closely. It was a humongous black blob with Starmie jewels for eyes. It was heading straight for me. I looked around and saw that the rest of the platform was crumbling. The white marble crumbled in the water. The debris fell in the darkness. The beast was closing in on me. I swam away from it as fast as I could and then I emerged. I reached for Charizard's Pokeball but that beast had grabbed me. I was dragged into the water.

I was starting to lose oxygen. My vision was blacking out and suddenly I was unconscious.

When I came to I was riding on a Lapras. Ashley was right beside me and Nurse Joy was piloting the Lapras.

"Lapras, dodge," Nurse Joy commanded. Lapras jumped into the air as a giant black claw reached out for it and landed in a safe spot.

"Where am I?" I asked. Ashley looked at me and suddenly hugged me.

"You're alive," she said with a sigh of relief.

I blushed. "Yeah, I am, but what happened?"

"You were unconscious," she said. "That thing had dragged you in the water."

"Then what?" I asked.

"Zack commanded his Magnemite to attack it and it let go of you," she said. "You emerged and we brought you back to life."

"How?" I asked.

"Mouth to mouth resuscitation," Ashley said and blushed beet red. I also blushed.

"What happened to Zack?" I asked.

The redness disappeared on her face and it was soon masked by sadness.

"He- he didn't-" she said, tears falling from her face.

"Oy!" A deep voice said. "Don't kill me of so easily!" I looked back and I saw Zack. He was surrounded by two Magnemite who were holding him with their magnets. His left hand was protectively covering his right shoulder as it was bleeding profusely. Suddenly the giant beast appeared out of nowhere and hit Zack. He and his Magnemite were sent flying across the room. There was a splash on the far end of the pool and it turned a sudden red.

"ZACK!" Nurse Joy cried out but it was too late, Zack was dead.

"Another person bites the dust," I thought. It was going to happen, sooner or later someone was going to die. But I didn't expect Zack to die now. He had joined me not so long ago. I reached for Charizard's Pokeball. I threw it in the air.

"Go, Charizard," I said softly. I climbed on its back.

"Red, NO!" said Ashley, but I didn't listen. I didn't want the rest of them to die because of me like Wade, Daisy, Charmander, Pidgey and Ivysaur.

"Go!" I told Charizard. I headed straight for the beast. Its claw tried attacking me but Charizard dodged swiftly.

"Flamethrower!" I commanded. It obeyed and launched a burst of flame at it. The flame got extinguished quickly. I suddenly got angry.

"USE FLAMETHROWER WITH FULL POWER!" I shouted. A burning hot flame appeared from its mouth yet it still got extinguished. The beast attacked and Charizard barely managed to dodge it. The creature grabbed its tail and threw it across the room.

"RED!" Ashley screamed.

I lost my grip on it and my back crashed on the wall and Charizard soon came after and its weight crushed against my stomach. We both fell down but Charizard regained its balance and I landed on its back. The beast charged at me but suddenly got shocked. I looked at what was shocking the beast and I saw Zack. I was relieved but there was blood running down on his stomach. His Jolteon was using Thunderbolt and they were hugely dented Magnemite surrounding him. The beast screamed in pain then I realized that only moves super effective on the water type was effective on this beast. I threw Pikachu's Pokeball.

"PIKACHU NOW!" I said, it knew exactly what I was thinking and a giant bolt of electricity appeared from its tail.

"ZACK ATTACK THE EYES!" I screamed. He nodded and he told his Jolteon to go for its eyes. Pikachu started falling down but went for its left eye, it broke into crystal shards. The second eye did the same thanks to Zack's Jolteon. The beast screamed in pain and popped into a mass of blood. The blood stained the walls and the water. The cascadebadge emerged and so did Misty. Charizard lets go get Misty. I quickly returned Pikachu to its Pokeball and rushed for Misty. I grabbed her as she was about to fall and managed to get the badge at the same time. I flew out of the gym creating a Charizard shaped hole in the wall. We landed on a patch of grass next to Misty's gym. Zack, Nurse Joy and Ashley emerged from the gym.

Ashley suddenly hugged me. "Thanks Red," she said.

Zack who was wounded gave me a weak grin and collapsed. Nurse Joy caught him and laid him on the ground. She summoned her Chansey and commanded it to use softboiled on Zack. His wounds were instantly healed. She also healed Zack's Magnemite and Jolteon. They looked happy and started playing with each other.

"Ashley can you please let go of me," I said. "I'm suffocating."

"Oh," she blushed just as Nurse Joy did when she did the same to Zack. I took out Pikachu and commanded him and Charizard to play with Jolteon and the Magnemite. Zack suddenly got up. Nurse Joy gave him another bone crushing hug.

"Don't ever do that to me again," she told Zack. She let go of him. Zack stared at me and I gave him a wink. He started laughing.

After a while I heard a soft moan. I looked back and I saw Misty regained consciousness. She looked around and asked me a question.

"What happened?"

"You were inside some beast and started attacking people," I said.

"I know that," she said, sadly. "I'm sorry about your wounds, Zack. That's your name if I recall correctly." Zack nodded. "I am asking about the condition of my city," she said.

"Well, your city was destroyed my MissingNo," I said. "And I think he turned you into that beast."

"Oh," she said and suddenly broke into tears.

"Whoa there," Zack said.

"I-it was my duty to protect the city, and I-I failed!" she cried. "Hundreds of people died because of me!"

"It's not your fault," I said. "It's MissingNo's and we are going to kill him, no matter what it takes."

She looked at me. I let out a hand and she grabbed it.

"Thanks, Red," Misty said. Suddenly my Pokedex beeped. It was a message from MissingNo.

Meet me at Nugget Bridge.

"Hey guys," I said. "Let's go to Nugget Bridge."

"Why?" they all asked.

"Because MissingNo's there," I said.

"How do you know?" asked Zack suspiciously.

"He sent me a message on my Pokedex," I said, after that we walked in silence. We reached the start of Nugget Bridge, there I saw MissingNo facing off against a female Scout. She was wounded badly but she kept on fighting.

"I am doing this for Leader Misty," she said. "Bulbasaur attack!"

MissingNo stood there in silence. Bulbasaur attacked him but he evaded easily and slashed it down with his Onyx horn shaped arm and poked a large hole through the Bulbasaur's stomach. He laughed manically at the scene before him. The girl was screaming for help. We tried to help her but MissingNo killed her with a fatal blow through her heart. He removed his arm and blood flew everywhere, and then he turned it back to normal. MissingNo's turned around to face us. He had changed his form. At first he had taken the form of Gary Oak now he looked like a teenager. His hair was jet black and it was messed up and stuck up at random directions. He was wearing a simple white shirt and black jeans and white sneakers. A grin appeared on his face.

"Red," he said. "We meet again."
