Chapter 11
Jake's POV
As the helicopter touched down I was edge it was almost night, Kelly was too. Cassandra and 5 swat soldiers were following us. As I walked with Kelly I thought about what could be waiting for us. Best case- just a blood lusted Pokémon, worst case- a cipher base. If that were the case I had my snag machine ready. I was snapped from my thoughts by my sensitive ears; something was circling us, something as big as a human. I held up my hand "hold, look around there's something watching us. As I said this a red blur emerged from the forest in a split second. I was knocked down and I heard gunfire. I quickly shifted into my Umberon form. As I stood up I saw my attacker. A Zoroark was moving almost too fast to see it; the entire swat team was out cold. Strangely they were shaking on the ground muttering, like they were having a bad nightmare. Cassandra and Kelly were also shifted. Cassandra shot a dragon pulse but the zoroark sidestepped the energy blast while using an attack I've never seen before. The black orb almost looked like shadow ball but seemed different. It must be a shadow Pokémon! I quickly use moonlight to heal myself. Once I was recharged I launched a dark pulse at the zoroark. It turned and simply raised its hand as the dark pulse hit its hand and it disappeared. I was in shock, how did it absorb that attack so easily. Just then an ice beam hit the zoroark in the back. Cassandra reacted quickly shooting a hyper beam. The powerful blast hit the zoroark and it staggered but seemed fine. The zoroark was just about to launch another orb when 5 darts shot into it torso, it fell to its knees but stayed awake everyone shifted back to human at once ready in case these were hunters. Then I heard a voice I knew and feared, "stand down and come quietly, your surrounded". Suddenly a black portal appeared at the zoroark's feet, it jumped into the hole and vanished. "Darn we were so close, well at least we have three shifters for the doc" the black armored man said. He activated his blades and lunged at us I dodged, just as I heard Cassandra shift. I knew what she was thinking; I shifted into an umbreon and jumped on her back, Kelly was just about to shift as well when 4 darts hit her in the arm, she fell to the ground. Cassanrda flew off with me on her back as I was yelling "we have to go back for her!" I yelled. "There's too many, don't worry we'll find the base she'll be at soon" she said confidently. "How" I asked. "There's a tracker in her snag machine. I sighed as we flew back to HQ. "Let's just hope we are not too late" I said grimly
Alex's POV
I strapped the girl in the chair just as she woke up. "Let me go" she demanded. "I'm afraid that is not possible my dear girl" the doc said as he put the serum in the injector. "w-what is that stuff" she said nervously. "The future my dear, the future" the doctor said as me and him walked out the arena.
As the girl struggled in her chair I looked at the doctor. "Why no tests doc?" "because the serum is perfected and she is already in shape" he said in an irritated voice. The doc pressed a button and the needle went in the girl's arm the doctor smiled and turned to one of the guards. "Get a cell ready, this subject will be hard to contain" he said as a bright flash filled the arena
