Hello, and welcome back to another episode of "Typhlosion8's Weird Author Notes!" I'll be your host, Ty8, and I'm going to start this off by saying I do not own Pokèmon like always. Hopefully, that will change soon, but sadly, not right now. A random thing I'm now bragging about to people that read my fanfiction, I read the whole Divergent series in 3 days, finishing Allegiant today, or at least the day I started writing chapter 11. Maybe that inspired me to write something, who knows, but this has become a really long rambling AN, so let's focus on the story. The front cover people are as I say, starting from the top right corner going down with Rosie, N, and Nicole. Starting on the bottom left going right is Red, Maddie, and Michael. Yes, Arceus is in the middle. I thought it was obvious. Now, let's get to our main event of the night,

Chapter... 11!

One more thing, I just learned how to do fullscreen, so yay me!


Present Day

"Poor kid. What do you think happened to her?" a pudgy sailor asked his buddy.

The other guy shrugged. "Who knows? She looks like she had a rough time. Should we take her to the Pokèmon Centre?"

"Yeah. See if she has a Trainer Card."

The man walked over to the brunette and searched her pockets, finally pulling out a laminated card the size of a bus pass. It was dripping water but the name was still readable under the plastic cover.

"The card says this girl's from Johto. Far away from home, isn't she?"

"Yeah. Wonder where she came from."

"Machoke, help me carry this kid!" one sailor called out as he released his Machoke. The Superpower Pokèmon easily lifted the girl in it's muscled arms as they walked towards the Pokèmon Centre.


Yesterday

Michael ducked and ran to his left, grabbing a Pokèball out of the pile and pressed the white button.

With a flash of light and a cry of surprise, Piplup popped out and her little head was looking around in confusion.

"Piplup, attack!" Michael yelled, and the little penguin gave him a glare before turning away from him.

Why won't she listen to me? We're friends, so what's the problem?" he thought, but now was not the time.

"Please do something!" he begged, and the Water type blew a bubble at him. Uxie finally opened his eyes and glanced in the direction of Michael and Piplup.

"She won't listen because of her level. You are not a strong enough trainer to command her. You need those metal things that trainers collect and brag about." Uxie said telepathically, and Michael sighed.

"Seriously? Why is this happening now?" he groaned.

"It's not my fault. Use your Pokèmon!"

Michael grabbed Marshtomp's Pokèball and released his own starter.

"Marshtomp, use Foresight then Echoed Voice!" he shouted, pointing at Trevenant. He wasn't sure, but it looked like either a Ghost type or a Dark type, so it was better to be safe than sorry. But even as the Echoed Voice attack went off, he knew it wasn't enough. Team Beta had powerful Pokèmon and his team was in the 30's.

Trevenant didn't seem to even feel the attack. It's focus was on it's Leech Seed, which was draining Nicole.

"Right. Marshtomp, destroy the Leech Seed with Mud Bomb!"

Marshtomp threw the mud ball at the vines, but the attack didn't affect them at all.

"Piplup," the penguin scowled, and her beak grew and spun as she sliced the Leech Seed apart with a Drill Peck attack and then fired an Ice Beam at Trevenant, freezing the Elder Tree Pokèmon and the surrounding area around it.

As soon as Piplup finished, she gave Michael a mocking look and then waddled over to Nicole. Mesprit knocked out Scyther with a Psychic attack before floating over as well and Michael followed, glancing at Azelf as the Willpower Pokèmon held the villans tightly in his psychic gaze, preventing their escape.

The dark haired teen picked up Nicole's wrist and felt the pulse beating. He shook her lightly and sighed.

"Nicole, please get up. I don't know what to do next." he said quietly.

Then he felt the now familiar sensation of dizziness as he fell backwards.


Red couldn't describe the shift inside of him. It was sudden, and he wasn't sure exactly why he only felt it then, but the uneasy feeling that came felt like something not natural. More like... legendary.

"Get into the air," he whispered quickly to N and Maddie, who mounted their rides with ease and took off hastily into the clouds. Aerodactyl fluttered closer, but a quick signal froze the Fossil Pokèmon as it waited for a command.

Closing his eyes, Red concentrated on the faint sounds of voices coming from below.

"...when should we attack? ...too long, the passengers will wake up and cause a scene."

"...if we attack suddenly... they'll fly away. Better to..."

They knew that they were up there. Team Beta had found them.

"Aerodactyl, fly up as quietly as you can and tell the others to stay up there. Do whatever it takes to keep them hidden." Red said, and his Pokèmon nodded as it flew up into the clouded sky.

Red spotted a hatch that led inside the boat, but it would be hard to stay hidden when he climbed down. His only other option would be to jump down the side and risk the injury to escape. He was about to leap when the Golbat flew at him and aimed an Air Slash at his face, narrowly missing as it grazed his arm when he dived to the ground.

Hissing in pain, Red noticed how close he was to the edge. pushing himself up, he did the stupidest thing ever. He jumped off the top of the boat towards the deck, landing directly in front of the two Team Beta grunts.


"Look out!"

A wave larger than any Michael had ever seen slammed into the boat and nearly tipped it over.

"You don't know anything about me!"

Nicole was yelling at the Lake Trio before suddenly turning away and running.

"How is it locked inside of me?"

He saw himself hold his head in his hands and groan, his knees buckling as he fell to the ground.

"Where... am I?"

Maddie was sluggishly waking up on a couch in a Pokèmon Centre, dripping water.

And then Michael sat up and looked at the Lake Trio.

"You guys... know something about the prophecy, don't you?"

The Legendary Pokèmon looked confused, but Michael saw the shock flash across their faces. They did.

Nicole was stirring. She shifted a bit before her eyes opened a millimetre.

"What happened?" she mumbled.

"Uh, how about the fact that you went off in the middle of the night in an unfamiliar city to do Arceus knows what without telling me?" Michael said, slightly upset.

"Whatever. We'll discuss it later, Michael. Right now we should go." Nicole replied, and opened her eyes more, glancing at the two Team Beta villans.

"Who's the blond?" she asked.

"Tyler. I thought he was a nice guy until he tricked me."

Nicole slowly got up and staggered over to her Pokèballs, clipping them all back onto her belt. She held one up and recalled Piplup.

"What do we do with them?" Michael asked, and Nicole seemed to need a moment.

Walking over to them, she plucked their Pokèballs off of their belts and scanned them with her PokèDex.

"Looks like lots of Bug and Ghost type Pokèmon." she muttered, and pointed a Pokèballs at Scyther, recalling it. Looking weak, she managed to get to Trevenant, placing a small yellow thing in it's mouth. The Elder Tree Pokèmon got up, still looking tired.

"Trevenant Trev."

"Trevenant, use Leech Seed!" she commanded, and Trevenant obeyed, sending two seeds at Tyler and Lily, wrapping them tightly and slowly draining their energy.

"How are you commanding it?" Michael asked, astonished. Nicole grinned.

"When you have all eight Sinnoh League badges, any Pokèmon you have in your possession will obey your every command." she said, showing Trevenant's Pokèball clutched tightly in her hand.

"Besides," Nicole said angrily. "Trevenant is happier with me anyway. His old trainer only used him to drain the life out of people."


For a moment, he was upside-down, then he crashed back onto the deck, his head throbbing.

Who knew a Machoke could throw so hard?

Red tried to get back up, but a Low Sweep knocked him back down again. The other Pokèmon, a strange purple Fighting type, was just as strong.

"You call that an attack? My Venusaur could knock you out with a Vine Whip and you'd be running away like babies!" he taunted.

Just a little bit longer, and then people will start coming out. I can do this.

"Please. You can't even stay standing!" one grunt said, and aimed his own kick at Red, who managed to avoid it by rolling.

"Even if you manage to take me down, I'm not very strong. I don't even know what my powers do, and my friends were never here. I went on my own to find the others and bring them back." Red said, and for a moment, the Beta grunts looked worried.

"You're lying," the other grunt said, and Red chuckled.

"Why would I do that?" he asked, and the grunts were really afraid now.

"We'll still take you to our boss. That's one less brat to capture." the first grunt said.

"Good luck with that." Red said, and a flash of white light revealed the Light Pokèmon standing guard in front of Red, who had managed to get up.

Holding her hands apart, a sphere of yellow, green and red electricity grew and Ampharos tossed it at Machoke, knocking it out instantly.

"Nice Zap Cannon Ampharos!" Maddie yelled, and she flew towards Red on Pidgeot with Aerodactyl and N trailing her.

"Attack Mienshao with it as well Ampharos!" N called out, and Ampharos threw another Zap Cannon at the Martial Arts Pokèmon, knocking it out as well. Golbat came close, but a Power Gem took it out easily.

"Good job!" Maddie praised her Electric type as she recalled Pidgeot and Dragonite.

"I told you guys to stay hidden!" Red groaned.

"While you got the pulp beaten out of you? Yeah right." Maddie replied.

"Three is definitely better than one." the grunt said. His partner nodded.

"Much better. Aren't you glad we brought backup now?"

A dozen grunts seemed to come out of nowhere and surrounded them, each releasing a Pokèmon of their own. Golbats, Electrodes, Bronzors, Scraftys and more came out.

Attacks started to come at them, Shadow Balls, Swifts, Flamethrowers, Thunderbolts and even a few that Maddie couldn't name fast enough were flying at them. A Poison Sting grazed Maddie's elbow, a Thunderbolt hit Red and countless Dark Pulses were everywhere. Ampharos was out like a light, recalled quickly.

Then a strange, calming feeling overtook Red. It was like the gentle movement of the ocean as it flowed in the sea.

I will help you.

A roar was heard in everyone's ears, a truly terrifying sound that reminded Maddie of the time that she nearly drowned as the tide knocked her and her Poliwhirl under.

"Look out!" N yelled.

The next thing she knew, she was grabbing N's coat and Red's hand as they fell into the ocean below with the Team Beta grunts, the boat tilting to the right as they went under the water and then going back to normal.

It was as if they were never there at all.


Present Day

Maddie woke up very wet. She was soaked to the skin and still dripping water. Her backpack, which had been on her shoulders, was gone. Her Pokèballs were gone too.

"Where... am I?" she mumbled. A nurse walked up to her. She looked like Nurse Joy, but her hair was slightly different.

"Nurse... Joy?"

"Hello dear. I hope you're okay. Two sailors found you washed up on shore." she said, and Maddie seemed confused.

"Washed up on shore? How did that happen? Where am I?"

"You're in Cyallage City in Kalos. I'm not sure why you were in the water, but I found you some towels. Your Pokèmon are fully healed and ready to go. Your Pidgeot and Dragonite looked exhausted. Please try to take better care of them in the future." Nurse Joy said.

"Kalos? Why am I in Kalos? I was going to capture Ho-Oh."

"I don't think Ho-Oh has been seen for years, dear. Maybe you thought you were going to battle Ho-Oh."

"No, I was definitely going to catch Ho-Oh."Maddie said firmly. Nurse Joy politely nodded.

"Well then, I wish you luck. For now though, I suggest that you don't wander too far from here. You seem a little disoriented."

"Alright. Can I have my team back?" Maddie asked. Nurse Joy led her to the front desk where her Pokèballs were resting in a tray. She clipped them onto her belt and thanked Nurse Joy for her help as she dried off the best she could. As she walked out the automatic doors, a part of her felt like she was forgetting something.


Ooooo, plot twist. *grins evilly*
