Sorry about not updating in awhile, I've just been busy with other things. And I'll admit I've been a bit lazy too. Plus the internet connection on this computer has been acting up, so that's another reason for my late update. Regardless, I present to you all the eleventh chapter of the Dimensional Guardians!

ShadowtheHedgehog9: Don't worry, I think the visitors making up with Giratina goes without saying. While the heroes don't necessarily say 'sorry' you can still safely assume that they've made up with the deity of antimatter, minus Shadow of course.

Metalsonic1230: Thanks! By the way, you misunderstood me, I didn't ask what other heroes that they would meet in the past, I ask which heroes should accompany Ash and his friends to the past. Excellent thoughts though on having them meet Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep Characters in the past. But there are some problems with making that happen. Like you said yourself, there is a huge time difference between the two time periods. Birth by Sleep happened 10 years before Kingdom Hearts 1 and 11-12 years before the events in the sequel will take place while Damos, under the hypnosis of Marcus, betrayed Arceus one thousand years ago. If you recall, Terra and Aqua briefly encountered young Sora and Riku in their adventures, so unless I make Sora, and everyone else over 1000 years old, there's no way I can make it happen. But who knows, maybe I can have the Birth By Sleep trio appear in another story.

P.S. This Chapter is long but there is a surprise in here for teenager and one for the children as well.


Chapter 11: The Heroic Air Battle


"He can't, he won't!" Ash growled as he and everyone on the hover flew up alongside Shaymin, Timmy, Danny, and Joshua, towards the Megarig.

"Pika!" Pikachu nodded

"We will all help Giratina!" Shaymin agreed with determination in his voice.

"Let's go kick this guy's butt!" Danny exclaimed

Sonic grinned "As long as I am the one to do it!"

From the ship Zero sees the approaching group and simply huffs "So I see they have some new friends helping them this time, eh?" Turning to Magnezone he commands "Take care of them."

And with that, Zero walks into the ship's interior. "Prepare to enter the reverse world." He called out to his computer

"As you wish." Was the reply of the computer

Zero's entire Magnemite army, given their orders, barrel towards the airborne group.

"Incoming metalheads, take evasive action!" Joshua shouted out in a cheesy military tone of voice.

Everyone does so and Joshua and Danny fly over the cage encompassing the pained Giratina as a portion of the Magnemites follow them. Shaymin flies behind the Megarig, also attracting some of the Magnemites attentions. Timmy flies below the Giratina's electrical cage with yet another group of Magnemite following him.

Newton, with his expert hover skills, successfully swerves out of the way of the living metal and resume their original path, while being pursued by the bulk of the Magnemite.


Shaymin


As Shaymin flies around the back of the ship, he is blasted at with multiple Shockwaves from Magnezone and Magnemite.

Shaymin dodges every strike and after a few more seconds of dodging and running, the Graditude Pokemon hops onto and off of Magnezone, using the propulsion to send Magnezon spinning about. This sets Magnezone up for a Energy Ball, as Shaymin beings to form one by raising it's front legs up into the air.

"Shay…min!" He cries as he throws his Energy Ball at Magnezone, scoring a direct hit on the steel pokemon.


Joshua and Danny


From above Joshua and Danny we're being pursued by their own group of Magnemite

"Man these things…whoa!" cried Joshua as he dodge yet another Thunderbolt from one of the Magnemite. "Are really annoying!"

"No kidding." Danny replied humorlessly as he dodged a bolt of lighting that would fried him.

Spinning on a dime, Danny proceeds to shoot down the attacker with a ghost ray.

"Nice one Danny!" Joshua commented

Danny grinned "Thanks!"

"AHHH!"

Suddenly Joshua is zapped by a Thunderbolt from one of the Magnemite, sending his whole body on a spasming fit. Thankfully the modifications on his jetpack prevented the excess electricity from shorting the jetpack out.

At seeing his friend get zapped, Danny immediately spins around and blasts the offender with another ghost ray, enveloping it in a cloud of smoke as the attack connected.

Growling at being hit, Joshua shouts "That's it!"

White energy with a pinkish hue suddenly begins to gather on Joshua's entire fist. Turning around so that he's flying backwards, Joshua slashes at the air creating a diagonal slash of energy that goes barreling toward the Magnemites. Though the attack was similar to Palkia's Special Rend, it wasn't nearly as powerful.

Regardless, it was still powerful enough to cause multiple clouds of smoke to poof into existence at its successful hits as it sliced through the group of Magnemite.

Danny could only gaped in awe "Wow, that's was sweet!"

This time Joshua gains the boastful grin "I know, right!"

Suddenly the duo spot more Magnemite heading forward them and the two are off again as they dodge their metal opponents' electrical attacks once more.


Timmy


From below, Timmy quickly realized that he couldn't stick two metal appendages out from his cleft at the same time, and he kind of needed the rotors to keep him in the air, lest he fall 1000 feet to his death below.

This meant he was completely defenseless against the Magnemite that were pursuing him, and they showed no signs of mercy as their Thunderbolts got dangerous close to both him and his rotor. Finally one of the Mangemites' Thunderbolt attacks strikes the helicopter rotors and they are immediately destroyed as the excess electricity fries it's circuits. Unfortunately. since the rotors were connected to the appendage that came from Timmy's cleft, the electricity traverses along the apendage and into the ten year's old body.

Timmy screams in pain as the electricity courses through his being, and he begins to plummet toward the ground far below.

Suddenly Timmy is enveloped in a puff of purplish-pink smoke with the words 'Life Savior' in it. Once the smoke is gone Timmy's body is revealed to be completely healed and ridden from electricity. His helicopter rotors has also been fully restored.

Already knowing what caused this, Timmy turns to his Fairy Godparents hovering in the air beside him. "Thanks guys!"

His Godparents give him two smiles

"No problem Timmy!" Cosmo cheerfully exclaimed

Wanda turns to the Magnemite and in a poof, her attire changes to that of a military women holding a large and intimating bazooka.

"If you want to pick on Timmy, you have to go through me!" She snarled.

"Bu-but Wanda!" Cosmo cried "Those things, they can see us! Now will have to go away forever!"

Wanda places a hand on her husband's shoulder "Sure they can see us honey, but Da Rules only states that if any humans,other then the child that the Godparents are assigned to, finds out about the child's Godparents, then they will have to go away forever. These things aren't human and by the look of things they can't talk either which means." Wanda ends with a devious smile, totally creeping out her husband.

"There's nothing holding me back from protecting Timmy!"

And with that shout, Wanda spins around and fires magical rockets at the charging Magnemites. Needless to say, we see a bunch of badly defeated Magnemite falling out of a huge cloud of smoke as they plummeted to the earth below.

"Wow that was awesome Wanda!" Timmy exclaimed as he landed on one of the frames just below the bottom of Giratina's cage.

"Well no one harms my idiots, but me!" Wanda replied as she and Cosmo poofed over to him.

"Hey!"


Ash's group, Newton, Sonic, Nathan and Shadow


Meanwhile those in the hover were also doging electrical lighting bolts from the Mangamite just like everybody else. But the group wasn't going to get anything done by simply dodging them.

And Nathan made this fact known as they flew past Giratina's cage "So how do we plan on releasing Giratina?"

"We could try attacking it?" Ash suggested.

"Worth a shot." Newton said right before he flies the hover high up above the ship

"When I descend, that's your time to attack!" Newton exclaimed.

"Got it!" Ash replied

Having heard that, Newton flies the group straight down at the electrical cage at such a sharp angle that someone from far away could've mistaken them for a bomber.

"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Ash commands as they near the cage.

"Bubble Beam, Piplup, let's go!" Dawn follows up.

Sparks emanated from Pikachu while Piplup opens it's beak as they fire their respective attacks at the cage. Unfortunately the attacks are simply deflected off the scanning diamond as if it were a shield in itself.

"It didn't do a thing!" Ash growled as the electrical scanning diamond surrounding the deity remained undamaged. If was as if they hadn't attacked at all.

Nathan's fist begins to glow "Here let me try!"

With that said, Nathan throws a punch in the direction of the cage, creating an energy projectile in the shape of a fist that goes plummeting down into the energy that enveloped Giratina….

The energy fist bounces off as soon as it makes contact with the diamond, sending the fist flying out into the sky and doing no harm to anything.

Nathan bristled "Crud!" .

"Hmph, pitiful." Shadow stated

"You think you can do better!" Nathan growled back.

Shadow doesn't answer and simply forms a ball of yellow chaotic energy in his reared back hand "Chaos…." Shadow pauses as his Chaos Spear grows larger "Spear!"

Shadow flings the chaotic ball of energy down at the diamond before a shocked group.

The attack connects….. but is deflected just like all the other attacks as it goes crashing into a random frame of the ship doing little damage whatsoever. But for a split second, the chaotic energy contained in Shadow's attack actually causes the diamond to flicker. Though it soon resumes full power like if Shadow's Chaos Spear never happened.

Said Hedgehog from up the hover growls in silence

"Wow, I've never seen an attack like that before!" Dawn exclaimed, astonished that the attack manage to make a visible effect, even if it was for a second.

"But it wasn't good enough." Ash groaned, frustrated that their attacks could not piece the incredible shield the diamond processed.

"All of our attacks just bounced right off!" Nathan exclaimed

"Then I'll have to go in and stop him myself!" Newton said with a determined tone of voice

"Great, I'm sick of being target practice anyway!" Sonic growled as the hover maneuvered out of the way of another electric Thunderbolt from the still-pursuing Magnemite.

BOOM!

Until a pack of them are shot down by Shaymin's Energy Ball. Though said Pokemon has no time to chat as it is forced to fly off again as more Magnemite chase after him.

Suddenly Magnezone appears right in front of the hover and begins to charge a Mirror Shot attack before the shocked occupants. Suddenly Magnezone is rammed out of the way by Danny. As Magnezone is knocked back from the force of the tackle, Joshua flies up directly into it's path and fires a laser, scoring a direct hit and sending Magnezone flying right back to Danny.

Danny grins, already knowing what Joshua planned to do, so he complies by firing a ghost ray at the incoming Magnezone. The poor Pokemon is blasted back towards Joshua, who repeats his attack from before and sends it back towards Danny. This repeats several more time like a ping pong game as the two blast Magnezone back and forth between each other.

Finally, as Danny sends it back to Joshua, both Halfa's charge up a ball from their respective energies and send them hurdling to the singular object in-between them: Magnezone.

BOOM!

"Nice tactician there you two!" Sonic called out.

"Thanks!" Danny replied right before a cry from Shaymin reaches the group's ears.

Turning, they see Shaymin being blasted by a Thunderbolt from a random Magnemite and was falling at an incredible rate.

"Shaymin!" Cries out Dawn.

Thankfully, Joshua manages to catch the gratitude Pokemon. "Gotcha!"

Shaymin gives Joshua a grateful smile "Thanks!"

"No problem!"

Ash and the others breath a sigh of relief as Joshua flies up to them and hands Shaymin to Ash.

"Nice catch Laserstorm!" Ash complimented.

"Hey! You got my name right this time!" Joshua joked

"Okay, now it's time to rescue Giratina!" Danny reminded the group.

The group nod and fly back up to the ship where they encountered more Magnemite. They are quickly shooed off from Pikachu's Thunderbolt, Piplup's Bubblebeam, Danny's ghost ray, and Joshua's lasers, allowing the group to press on.

Timmy

From the bottom portion of the ship, Timmy was using his grappling hook to swing up the frames of Zero's ship as he dodged the electrical Thunderbolts from his pursuing opponents.

Finally Timmy lands on another frame and turns to face the Magnetite

"You guys sure are annoying!" He scolded his metal opponents.

Timmy's rocket launcher appendage from the battle with Dialga quickly replaces his grappling hook appendage "Try this on for size!"

With that said, Timmy fires three rockets that collide with the group of Magnemite and are enveloped in a cloud of smoke upon impact. Timmy grins as he sees his metal opponents falling from the smoke afterwards/

"Oh yeah! This is just totally awesome!" He exclaimed, reffering to this action packed battle.

Unfortunately he doesn't notice another pack of Magnemite behind him, just about ready to zap Timmy silly.

BOOM!

Suddenly they are shot down by the Bazzoka-crazed Wanda as she shouts "Don't you even think about hurting my Godchild!"

The female Godparent quickly charges straight up to engage the Magnemites once more.

"Yeah what she said!" Cosmo cheerfully exclaimed as he proceeded to fire a beam of magic from his wand, only to miss by a long shot as the beam flew out into the endless sky.

"Maybe you should leave the blasting to me and Wanda, Cosmo." Timmy suggested.

"I always was the worst shot in the Fairy Academy." Cosmo admitted sheepishly.

Timmy switches back to his grappling hook appendage to continue his upwards climb.

Once the ten-year old was out of sight a thought suddenly came to Cosmo's mind,

"Wait, why didn't Timmy use that helicopter thing to get up there? Aw whatever."

Ash's group, Newton, Joshua, Danny, Sonic, Shadow, and Shaymin

Ash and those on the hover were still busy looking for the door that led inside Zero's ship, while their pokemon, Danny, Shaymin, and Joshua shot down any and all Magnemite that got too close.

"There should be some door here that leads into the ship somewhere on this catwalk balcony!" Newton exclaimed, pointing to a gray catwalk, only for some Magnemite to appear in front of them, blocking their way to it.

"Pikachu use…." Ash is suddenly interrupted by Sonic "Leave this to me!"

With that, Sonic leaps from the hover, curls up into a ball and propels himself forward, slamming into a Magnemite with the force of a boulder. The Magnemite is easily knocked out of the way from the sheer force of Sonic's Homing Attack. Somehow, Sonic was able to repeatedly use this technique in midair to dispose of the other Magnemite as he progress towards the catwalk, using the Magnemite as stepping stones as well as clearing them out of the way for the hover to safely land on the catwalk.

"I must say, that was an extraordinary technique you used there Sonic." Newton Graceland admitted.

"I'll say!" Ash added in.

Pikachu also agreed. "Pika!"

"So where is this door you we're talking about?" Danny asked as he landed safely on the catwalk. No sooner had he said this when Joshua landed as well, deactivating his jetpack's thrusters with another push of the red button on his jetpack's strap.

"It should be this way, follow me!" Newton replied as he ran down the catwalk.

The others quickly follow the scientist save for Shadow, who took it at his own pace. Danny, on the other hand, just took flight once more and flew after them. Joshua decided to gives his jetpack a rest for a while and simply ran on after the group..

Eventually the catwalk lead to a balcony as Newton jumped down to it. "I should be able to get in through here!"

At seeing Newton down on the balcony and facing towards them, Danny frowned. "Wait is the door below us?"

After flying down to the balcony a feet below, Danny turns around to see that the door had been below them and the catwalk, automatically confirming what he just said.

Suddenly the Magnemite close in on them yet again.

"Pikachu!" Ash calls out to his Pokemon as Dawn does the same to hers.

The two, already knowing what to do, shoe the Magenmite's away with a Thunderbolt and Bubblebeam. They are soon joined in with ghostly beams and laser from the Halfa duo.

"Go on ahead Newton, we'll take care of the Magnemites!" Danny exclaimed as he summoned a ghostly orb and threw it at a Magneton, resulting in a moderate explosion.

"I'll help too!" Shaymin added in, already feeling the lust to battle again.

"Chaos Spear!" Shadow shouted as he suddenly threw a ball of chaotic energy over a startled Newton's head, crashing into Magnezone that had been behind the scientist and blasting the Magnemite commander off the catwalk.

It took Newton a moment to register what happened before he turn towards the Ultimate Life Form. "Thanks!"

Shadow just huffed. "Watch your back."

"Now Sheldon go, Flash Cannon!" Newton cried to his Pokemon.

Sheldon complies and sends a white energy bullet crashing into the door. Despite the door being reinforced, the attack successfully manages to blast a hole in it, allowing Newton and his Pokemon passage into Zero's ship.

We are then show Zero's computer as the scanning process reaches 50%

"Scanning is now 50 percent complete." The computer chirped

From back outside we see Ash had apparently brought out Chimcar and Buziel from their Pokeballs and were aiding in holding the Magnemite off. Chimcar and Pikachu were doing successful job with Flamethrower and Thunderbolt, showing little trouble in holding the metal eyes back.

Buziel was also doing good with Auqa jet, using it to knock a Megaton away from the door as well.

Sonic, despite having no offensive super abilites, was doing a trendmous job of his Homing attack. Anytime a Magnemite or Magneton got through the others defenses. Sonic would ram into it with his trademark Homing Attack, knocking the steely opponents back as he rebounded over to the catwalk expertly.

Joshua was a big help as well, firing multiple lasers and slashing vertical, diagonal, and horizontal energy waves at the offending Magnemite. Occasionally he would also use his elemental powers as well, such as scorching them with twin flame jets from his hands and freezing them with balls of frozen ice.

He still didn't feel too sure of using his electricity powers just yet, fearing that using the energy would cause the electricity to increase to an unbearable amount, resulting in another electrical outbursts. Even though Buziel was doing damage with his water attacks, Joshua didn't think his water powers would do quite as much damage.

Shadow was just of a big help as well. No matter how many got through the air defense and tired to get through him, they were all met with a serious of powerful punches and kicks from the Hedgehog that send them back out into the air.

"Pitiful." Shadow insulted as he sidestepped a Thunderbolt "I haven't even begun to show you freaks my true power!"

"Chaos Spear!"

Shadow cried, sending a ball of chaotic energy crashing into a group of Magnemite.

Nathan was throwing his Energy Fists every which way. Despite it continuing to be overused, it did manage to be a tremendous aid in keeping the Magnemite back. At one point in the fight, a Magneton managed to get past Nathan's defenses and proceeded to shock him with tackle of Spark,. The super strong boy grunted as he resisted the electrical sparks and grabbed the Magneton by it's magnets. The next thing we see is the Magneton crashing into another Magneton in the air after been thrown effortlessly by Nathan.

Dawn had brought out Bunaery and Ambpom in addition to Piplup to help fend off the Magnemite.

"There Buneary use Ice Beam!" Dawn commanded.

Buneary does so and lauches a icy blue ice beam at the flying group of Magnemite, managing to freeze a Magneton among them in a block of ice.

Ambpom was using Swift from it's two tails, sending star shaped projectiles crashing into the Magnemite.

Danny was the only one actually flying in the barrage of Magnemites, doing the best he could to destroy as many as possible with his ghostly rays and balls while dodging both the Magnemite's electrical attacks and the stray attacks from our heroes.

Eventally Magnezone arrives and nails Danny with a Mirror Shot beam as the ghostly hero cries out in pain, unable to concentrate long enough to turn Intangiable to escape or even turn invisible to trick his oppnenet into thinking he wasn't there.

Suddenly a green ball of energy slams into Magnezone's side, effectively halting it's attack on Danny and blasting it back a distance.

Turning, Danny sees Shaymin fly up to him with a hint of pride in his voice "I would say you owe me a big 'Thank You'."

Danny rolls his eyes

"Thanks." He said sarcastically "Maybe I should just stay with you guys and blast them from a distance."

"Yes, yes you should." Shaymin replied teasingly, only succeeding in annoying Danny even further as the two flew over to the others and proceeds to join their assualt on the Magnemite.


Timmy


Timmy and his Fairy Godparents had been doing quite a successful job of fending the Magnemite off as they progressed up and around the cage of Giratina. Eventually they reach the level where everyone else was battling at.

As did the Magnemite.

"Guys, I wish I had a freeze ray!" Timmy shouted as he saw the Magenmite approaching them

"One Freeze ray coming up Timmy!" Wanda exclaimed, momentarily taking a pause in her Bazooka rampage.

In a poof, a Freeze Ray appears from Timmy's Cleft's appendage and a targeting computer moves over Timmy's left eye .

"Eat this buttheads!" Timmy cried as he fired a blue beam from his freeze ray towards the Mangemite as they continued to stupidly approach him. Instantly several Magnemites are incased in blocks of ice as they get caught in the icy beam.

"Congratulations Timmy! You said the worse line in history!" Cosmo cried hysterically

Timmy just groan as Wanda fires more missiles from her Bazooka, succeeding in ridding off several more Mangemite from the group


Newton


68% , 69%

The scanner from inside read

Suddenly Newton and Sheldon arrive in the room by elvator.

"Zero! Stop this at once!" Newton Graceland ordered as he bolted out onto the bridge

70% 71%

Suddenly the scanning bar on the monitor is replaced with image of Zero's face

"Your too late." He stated with a hint of mocking in his voice. "I invite you to stay and watch as the excution of my beautiful plan is made real."

Without even waiting for a reply, the screen of the laughing Zero fades away and returns to the scanning process screen, leaving Newton Graceland snarling in rage.


The others


Back outside the others were continuing to hold off the Magenmites.

"There's just no end to these guys!" Joshua cried as he hurled a ball of energy straight at a pack of Magnemite, the black smoke following afterwards indicative of a hit.

"We'll just have to keep trying!" Dawn replied

"They can keep coming all they want." Shadow stated as he easily backhanded a Magneton before launching a Chaos Spear at it. "I'll destory every last one of them!"

"I'll help too!" Shaymin cried as he flew beside Shadow and blasted a Energy Ball at a Magnemite, the resulting explosion of which, damaging the Magnemite arround it.

"Not bad." Shadow admitted.

"Not bad yourself." Shaymin replied with a wink.

A small faint smirk come to the Ultimate Life Form's face for a just a split second, he was beginning to like this little Pokemon.

"Ash look out!" Danny cried as he punched a Magneton with his ghostly strength.

"Wha?.." Ash turns around to see a pack of Magnemite flying right to him. Ash could only scream alarm when they began charging electricity in their bodies to zap the young Pokemon Trainer silly.

Suddenly a gust of frost swoops in from above and freezes all of the offending Magnemites in blocks of ice as they begin to plummet toward the ground.

"What the…?" Ash began in shock at the sudden attack.

"I didn't do that." Danny admitted. Turning to see Joshua blasting Magnemite after Magnemite with his lasers, Danny adds in. "And I'm pretty sure Joshua didn't either."

"HOW MANY OF THESE THINGS ARE THERE!" Joshua cried, quite exhausted as more Magnemite appeared to take the place of the ones he had just wasted.

After managing to get a pause in the fight, the entire group look up to the sky with confused expression to see a boy that seemed to have spiky hair, falling down toward them. Farther up, the group could see a ship following the boy's descent as well.

"What the?.." Sonic began

"Who's that?" Dawn asked

Joshua and Danny instantly recognized both the boy and the mysterious ship, as the former cast a Aeroga spell to slow his fall and landed safely on the catwalk just a few feet in front of the stunned group.

He was sooned followed by the ship, as it was surprisingly small enough to land on the catwalk like a runway.

"Sora!" Joshua and Danny cried together in complete shock.

Sora, with Keyblade shining in the daylight, smiles "Hey if it isn't Laserstorm and Phantom, so what did I miss?"

Just then two very bizarre figures appeared out of the opened cockpit of the gummi ship and ran over on either side of Sora.

"Well howdy." Goofy the court knight greeted "Gawrsh It's sure is good to see you two again."

"Ditto Goofy." Joshua replied with a smile.

"Um Phantom, Laserstorm?" Sonic began, feeling a bit lost and confused here "You know them?"

Danny nods "They're were with us when he fought Dialga and Palkia as well."

"Wow seriously!" Ash exclaimed "Man! You must have an all-out war with them."

"Pika!" Pikachu agreed

"Pialga and Dalkia?" Goofy asked, scratching his chin "I don't think I've heard of them."

"No! He said Dialga and Palkia, you big palooka!" Donald squawked angrily, annoyed by Goofy's stupidity "But you've got a point, though."

"Yeah." Sora agreed "Who are they?"

"Those guys we fought after we met you, Sora." Joshua answered.

It took a moment but Sora's trio eventually got it.

"Oh!" they all exclaimed in unision.

"I pretty sure this isn't going to be right." Dawn suddenly said, knowing that every other time she and Ash asked this question that it had turned out to be incorrect "But are you two Pokemon?"

Sora chuckles "No they're not."

But quite suddenly, his and Goofy's eyes snap open as they slowly turn to Donald who snaps his neck in anger before breathing in a sharp lungful of air.

"Hit the deck!" Sora hollered

"I AM NOT A POKEMON!"

Everyone is blown back a couple of feet, humans, metahumans, Halfas, antropomorphic hedgehogs, Keyblade Masters, Court knights and Pokemon alike, from the sheer force of wind exhaling from Donald's large beak mouth. Even those in the air were blown back a few feet.

"Yikes! That's one beak you got there duck." Sonic wearily said, rubbing the back of his now sore head from being slammed into the railing as he slowly began to recover.

"Sorry about Donald, he's got a nasty temper but he's good at heart." Sora apologized as he got up with ease, relatively use to Donald's shouts.

"I can relate." Sonic replied, eying a certain black hedgehog, who was getting up to his feet, quite ticked after being knocked back by a simple shout. It was completely embarrassing, especially since he was The Ultimate Life Form for crying out loud.

"By the way, I'm Sonic the Hedgehog!" Sonic proudly introduced himself "And that's Shadow over there."

"I'm Ash and these are my Pokemon partners!" Ash exclaimed, each pokemon giving it's signature cry as it was introduced.

"I'm Dawn." Dawn introduced "And these are my partners Piplup, Ambipom and Bunaery!" Her three Pokemon by her greet them with their respective cries also.

"I'm Muscleman!" Nathan greeted "I'm an ally of Laserstorm's."

"And I'm Shaymin!" Shaymin greeted.

"Gawrsh, well it's sure nice to meet all of you, I'm Goofy." Goofy cheerfully said.

"Goofy?" Sonic repeated "That's a nickname in itself."

Suddenly a sharp cry draws everyone's attention to Giratina, still in terrible pain from the scanner that was slowly draining his life force away.

"Whoa! How did we miss that?" Sora exclaimed, surprised of how something or someone that large could go unnoticed to him and his comrades.

"Gawrsh! What's happening to that large fella?" Goofy asked in worry, somehow already being able to tell that this imposing creature was friendly.

"He's being scanned by that monster Zero!" Ash spat "And if the scanning is complete, Giratina will be no more!"

Sora's trio gasps.

"Then how do you stop this scanning thing?" Sora asked in a determined tone of voice, already feeling the need to help them.

"Newton is already inside trying to shut it down!" Ash replied.

Suddenly more Magnemite fly at them, prompting Ash to say as he and the others get back into a battle stance "And we are trying to buy him some time by keeping these Magnemite back!"

Sora grins "Well count us in!" Not even bothering to consult his teammates.

Goofy obviously goes along with it "Yep, we won't let Biratina die!"

"It's Giratina." Donald squawked in his hard-to-understand voice, though anyone could tell that he was obviously not happy that Sora didn't even consult him about getting involved with the affairs of this world. But nevertheless, he got into a battle stance as well, with staff held high.

But before they even get a chance to unleash a world of hurt on the Magnemite, a trio of rockets appear out of nowhere and strikes the group of Magnemites, their firey explosions clearing the surrounding foes of their hit targets.

Turning in shock, the group see Timmy in his Cleft costume trading in his Rocket Launcher appendage with his Helicopter Rotor, allowing him to fly down to the catwalk and join everybody else.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late!" Timmy apologized right before the young ten year old's eyes widen as he laid eyes upon the other hero that had fought alongside him against Dialga

"Sora?"

Sora smiled "Hey Cleft, didn't think I see you here either."

"Neither did I." Cleft replied

But before anyone could comment on this, Magnemite were suddenly seen barreling toward them from all sides.

"It looks like talking has been put on hold!" Danny said as he fired a ghost ray at a Magneton.

"Thank goodness." Shadow replied as he blasted a few Magnemite with a Chaos Spear, the comment earning him glares from a couple of people.


Newton


Inside, Newton was busily pressing random buttons at the ship's console. with the aid of four metal appendages sticking out of his mechanical backpack, in a desperate attempt to shut down the ship's system.

75%, 76%

"I guess he forgot." Newtons said to himself "this thing is my design!"

Suddenly, as if faith itself was teasing him, the computer suddenly announces "Access denied!"

"No, he changed the password!" Newton cried in horror, trying again and again to hack into the system only to be met with the same thing as before.


The others


Back outside everyone, whether human or not, were putting up a valiant fight against the Magnemite as they came back stronger and more numerous then before. Luckily the arrival of Sora's trio and young Cleft help to even the cause.

Sora fought with a variety of attacks. At first, Sora repeatedly threw his Keyblade at the numerous Pokemon of steel, succeeding in ridding off about 20 or so of those pesky little Magnemites. The weapon's ability to disappear and reappear in Sora's hand each time he threw it greatly surprised Ash, Dawn, and Sonic. After destroying yet another Magnemite, the tip of Sora's Keyblade started to glow as the owner fired a blue thin beam at the steely opponents. With expert marksmanship, he shot down at least a dozen Magnemite.

Eventually a Magneton came barreling toward him and Sora just grinned…

A golden glow suddenly shines around Sora and his weapon as the Keyblade Master immediately performs his devastating technique: Ars Arcanum .

The Magneton is slashed brutally by Sora with fast powerful swipes of the Keyblade. For the final and most damaging hit of Ars Arcanum, Sora flips around twice and, using the momentum of them, slams the Keyblade down upon the Magneton, sending it crashing into the hull of Zero's ship at least 40 feet away.

"Whoa." Was all Ash could say, he and the others stunned at the move Sora just preformed. But they had little time to dwell on that as the seemingly never ending horde of Magnemite came flying at them yet again and they were forced back into battle.

Donald, despite his size was also an effective aid in repelling the Magnemite force. Though his fighting skills were very poor, the court magician's spell casting abilites remained unmatched in effectiveness as he proceeded to cast a high-level Blizzaga at the incoming Magnemite, freezing several in blocks of ice.

Even Shadow's attacks, though they were just as powerful if not more, weren't clearing out the Magnemite at such a fast pace. This was probably due to the fact that Shadow's attacks were meant for singular targets in one-on-one fights. And being beaten in the 'who can destroyed the most' category annoyed Shadow to no ends.

Goofy wasn't all that much of a help at keeping the Magnemite back, seeing as how he was a close range fighter. But he did manage to strike a few with a toss of his shield. Suprisingly, no matter how many times he threw it, it somehow always bounced back to him even if he missed his target. However, when the Mangemite got through the group's air defense, Goofy's role skyrocketed. The dog knight would repeatedly strike the Magnemite with his Goofy Tornado technique, sending them back into the horde of Magnemite for the other long-distanced heroes to take over.

Cleft, despite having no powers whatsoever, was equally capable of fighting the Magnemite from either close or long range. If they we're far off, Timmy would use either his Rocket Launcher appendage to blast them with missiles or freeze them in blocks of ice with his Freeze Ray. When the Mangemite we're at close range, Cleft would switch to his Metal Fist appendage to slap and/or punch the Magnemite back.

Even though just about everyone possessed some sort of weapon/power/ability that could reach long distances, Danny and Joshua, by far, possessed the longest ranged attacks out of the entire group. Their beams of energy easily shooting down Magnemites too far away for the others to hit. Sora, however, was an exception whenever he fired his blue beams from his Keyblade.

Eventually, the heroes manage to clear out all but three Magnemite when a sudden noise that sounded like someone was inhaling loudly was heard.

"What's is that?" Ash asked with a confused expression.

"Look, up there!" Sonic shouted, pointing to a Magnemite above as it was literally being sucked to the mouth of a strange creature on a random frame of the ship. The creature's skin tone was a bright pink and it was small and spherical in shape. It had stubs for arms and rather large flat red feet. The most noticeable thing about it however, was the previously mentioned mouth that was abnormally large for a creature of that size.

The heroes continued to watch in shock , but mostly awkwardness, as the Magnemite was sucked into the mouth of this creature, bulking it's body by a noticeable amount. A strange sound is heard and said Magnemite is somehow miraculously ejected through this creature's skin as if it were intangible. But stunning thing was that this creature somehow grew a pair of magents, similar to those of the Magnemite, on both sides of it's head.

"Aw, it's so cute!" Dawn squealed in infatuation.

"What the heck is that thing!" Shadow growled, already annoyed by the cute appearance of this….. thing.

"Wait let me check." Ash said, as he brough out his Pokedex and pointed it straight at the creature. Unfortunately, the device soon says "Species Unknown."

"Well then it must be from wherever you all are from." Ash replied, putting his Pokedex away. After everything that's happen, this didn't shock Ash or the others all too much. However, the creature did do one thing that left them all very confused…

"Probably." Danny shrugged. "But how did it just eat that Magnemite thing and then… popped it out of his body?" He could only imagine how stupid he must've sounded for saying that. "And how did those magnets that those Magnemite have appear on him?"

Sora could only shrug as well "I have no idea."

Suddenly, as if to answer Sora's question, the creature's newly acquired magnets begin to spark as it sends a bolt of electricity at one of the remaining two Magnemite. Despite it's electric type, the attack does enough damage to shock the steel ball unconscious and allow it's body to plummet toward the earth far below.

"Whoa, it just used one of those lighting bolts that they used right back at it!" Timmy exclaimed

After hearing these words from Timmy, Joshua suggests "Maybe when that creature swallowed that Magnemite, it copied it's powers."

"You know, I think your may be right Laserstorm." Ash replied.

The other Magnemite then comes charging toward the creature, sparks flying around it. However the Spark attack proves futile when the creature pulls out a rather large hammer with a symbol of a star on either of it's flat ends. It was stunning how this little creature could wield such a large hammer so easily. With one swing of that large hammer, the Magnemite rockets back from such a powerful hit and crashes into the hull of the ship, joining the other one that had been knocked there previously by Sora.

"Powerful little guy ain't he?" Sonic said at seeing the creature's strength

"Hmph, that thing still would be no match for me." Shadow stated, earning him an annoyed anime sweat drop from Sonic.

Suddenly the creature inflates itself and literally floats off from where it was, hovering over to the catwalk. The creature safely lands in front of the astonished heroes.

"Well howdy!" Goofy greeted, bending down to the creature's level "I'm Goofy! That there's Donald, That's Sora, Ash, Dawn, their little friends, Sonic, Shadow, Cleft, Shaymin, Laserborm and Phantom." The dog knight finished, pointing to each person as he introduced them.

"It's Laserstorm." Joshua groaned, a little annoyed that Goofy still couldn't it right even after all this time, but that's what made Goofy….. Well, Goofy.

"It's sure nice to meet you!" Shaymin greeted, flying around the creature's head much to it's delight.

"Hi!" The creature said, waving it's stubby arms in the air.

"What's your name?" Dawn asked in a tone that suggested she was talking to an infant. Everyone put 2 and 2 together and quickly realized that Dawn had become infatuated with the creature already. The creature smiles back at her and tries to write something in midair.

"I'm guessing that means it can't talk." Danny guessed seeing as if it could talk it would just say it's name rather then writing it in midair.

"But it said hi." Timmy pointed out.

Danny thought it over "Point taken. Then maybe it can't talk all that good."

As they spoke, the creature finishes writing it's name in the air, leaving everyone completely confused and guessing.

Dawn however, seemed to understand what it wrote perfectly. but regardless, she hesitatingly asks "Kirby?"

The creature immediately nods it's head enthusiastically.

"So it's name is Kirby?" Ash repeated, never in his life had he heard such a ridiculous name, but if it was this thing's name then it was it's name.

Suddenly Sonic's eyes widen as he spots something in the air "Look out!"

Somehow, everyone jumps out of the way instantly as a whitish blue bolt of energy strikes the area they had been occupying, singeing the metallic floor. Turning, the group see a Magnezone, the last member of the steel army floating there before them.

"Pikachu use Thunderbolt!" Ash cries.

Sparks fly around Pikachu as it unleashes a bolt of electric at the Magnezone, zapping Magnezone with many watts of electricity. Obviously it doesn't do much damage, seeing as how this steel pokemon also had a secondary electric type to it as well.

However it get's no time to retaliate as Shaymin fires an Energy Ball at Magnezone, scoring a critcal hit and blasting it back. Danny quickly flies up in front of the oncoming living steel and blasts back towards the group with an ecto-beam. It's is then punched right back up into the air by Timmy's Metal Fist appendage, leaving Donald Firagas to take over.

After a few more seconds, Donald stops his Firaga streak as Sonic leaps up, curls into a ball, and propels himself to the singed Magnezone in the air. Sonic's curled form slams into it's body with the force of a speeding truck. Without even missing a beat, Sonic uncurls and gives the Magnezon a long stream of spinning kicks before he finishes with an upper kick, sending the Magnezone higher up into the air.

Having activating his jetpack's thrusters, Joshua repeats what Danny had done previously and fires a laser at it, sending Magnezone back to the catwalk once again.

Shadow sees it coming and shouts "Chaos Spear!"

A ball of chaotic energy crashes into Magnezone, the damage intensified thanks to Joshua's still active laser beam. The poor Magnezone is blasted back once again, only to meet an airborne Kirby who nails it with his hammer, knocking Magnezone back to the catwalk yet again.

"Bunaery Ice Beam!" Dawn cries

Her bunny-like Pokemon complies and fires a blue beam that turns Magnezone into an ice block upon contact. Goofy then performs his Rocket attack, breaking the oncoming ice and knocking the Pokemon back up into the air from the force of the attack.

"This is it!" Sora exclaimed as he finishes up the brutal assault on Magnezone with Strike Raid, striking the Pokemon multiple times and sending it to join it's two Magnemite pals pinned to the hull of the ship.

With the defeat of the last 'metal head', the group could finally relax. However their relaxation get's put on hold as Newton comes bolting out of the door in a state of panic.

"I can't stop the machine!" Newton exclaimed with a horrified expression.

"What do you mean you can't stop it!" Sora shouted in shock at what he just heard.

84%, 85%

"I mean, unless I can find out Zero's password in a less then a minute, Giratina will be no more!" Newton replied, far to worry about Giratina to care about where these three came from or how they got here.

"But there's got to be a way!" Ash shouted in determination, followed by Shaymin's panicked voice "We can't just sit here and watch Giratina die!"

"Let's try destroying this thing then!" Sora growled as a fiery aura surrounded his Keyblade.

"No wait, Sora!" Dawn tried to warn the Keyblade Master

"Fire!"

Too late, Sora had blasted a fireball at the scanner, but right after colliding with it, the fireball dissipates into nothing, doing no damage whatsoever.

Sora gaped after seeing that his magic had no affect whatsoever "What!"

"I was trying to tell you." Dawn began "We tried attacking it earlier and all are attacks bounced off it. Only Shadow's attack was able to do any visible affect to it, but even that was only temporary."

"Humph! I like to see it try and deflect this!" Donald scowled as he pointed his staff up into the sky, said staff gaining a crackling yellow aura. "THUNDER!"

Bolts of lighting shot down from the sky and struck the scanning diamond that had been causing so much pain to Giratina throughout this entire chapter. At first it actually seemed like Donald's spell would work as the diamond-shaped energy flickered for a moment, but alas, the lighting bolts finally ricocheted off the electric diamond and back into the sky whence they came before a stunned Donald.

Joshua's head leans into view "Ask and you shall receive." Donald promptly gave the Elaman halfa a nasty scowl.

"Why can't we free Giratina!" Ash screamed in frustration. "First we try attacking it but all our attacks were ineffective. Then we try and shut down the ship's systems but we need a password to get into the computer!"

Everyone just looks on at Ash's protesting with degrading expressions (Save for Shadow) as they reluctantly and slowly began to come to the conclusion that there was no way to free Giratina in time before the scanner killed him.

But Joshua was working his brain overtime, there was something nagging at his mind, something that he felt could save Giratina's life. Then suddenly, it all comes to him at once.

Joshua's eyes immediately snap open as the memory with his recent encounter with Silencer played through his head. A mixture of both cheerfulness and sadness came over the young teenager as he weighed out the pros and cons. He might be able to free Giratina from his electrical cage with it, and it could possibly be the only way. But….it would come at a price.

"Everyone get into Sora's ship!" Joshua shouted and everyone turns to him.

"Actually it's…"

"Why?" Sonic asked, discounting Donald's screams of rage for being cut off.

Joshua sighs "I have a plan to free Giratina."

"Really? what?" Ash pratically begged

"Don't worry about that Ash, just get into Sora's ship." Joshua replied, with a hint of gloom in his voice

Danny and Sora blinked, they we're the only ones who had notice the hint of sadness. Why did the fact that Joshua found a way to free Giratina make him sad? But before either could make this known, the Elaman halfa activates his jetpack thrusters and takes off into the sky.

"Laserstorm!" Danny called out, but his voice was lost under the roaring of Joshua's jetpack's thrusters.

"Does he really think he can free Giratina?" Dawn asked.

"I don't know." Newton replied "Let's take him up on his word. But what did he mean by Sora's ship?"

As a response, Sora points behind Newton and the scientist turns around to see Sora's gummi ship perched precariously on the catwalk.

"Wow, I feel stupid." Newton said with an anime sweat drop, regarding how something that large went unnoticed by the scientist.

"It's called the gummi ship." Sora informed. Me, Donald, and Goofy use it to travel…. around."

"That may be the most stupidest name I have ever heard." Shadow stated.

At hearing this, Donald's face becomes red hot as the curt magician bolts over to Shadow and shouts "Well what do you know about gummi ships? Do you know how to pilot them? Didn't think so!"

Shadow is un-phased by Donald's temper tantrum "I know I would come up with a better name then something that sounds like you can chew on it'."

"THAT'S IT! I'M GOING TO HURT YOU SO HARD IT WILL MAKE YOUR MAMA DIZZY!" Donald cried, practically screaming his head off.

Shadow grins at the challenge "You couldn't hurt me with your flimsy spells even if you tried."

"FLIMSY! WHY I OUGHTA!….."

"You oughta what?" Shadow asked with a challenging tone, infuriating Donald to no ends. But before either court magician or Ultimate Life Form could do or say anything else that they probably wouldn't regret, Sora and Sonic leap between the two and tried to reason with their respective allies.

"Donald calm down! We don't have time for you to get in a fight with that Shadow…hedgehog….guy!" Sora explained to Donald.

"But he started it!" Donald protested.

Sora glares at Donald.

Grumbling, the court magician reluctantly lowers his staff, which he had raised at some point in his argument with Shadow. Unfortunately, Sora made a good point.

"Fine." He huffed, and angrily strod off inside the gummi ship to wait for the others.

"Chill out Shads! We still have to free Giratina remember!" Sonic reasoned

The Ultimate Life Form scowls as he drops of the battle stance he instinctively got into during his argument with Donald. "Have it your way Sonic." And with that, he causally skates inside the gummi ship.

Turning, Sonic apologizes to the others, who had seen this entire fued "Sorry about that, Shads can get pretty hotheaded at times."

"And Donald's got a nasty temper, but you get used to it." Sora added in.

"I know how that feels." Dawn said with a teasing smile.

"Hey!" Ash growled.

Everyone else just laughs at Ash's dilemma.

After about ten seconds, he finally snaps "Didn't Laserstorm say we should get inside your ship, Sora!"

"Yeah, your right." Sora say as he wiped a imaginary tear from his eye, giving in to Ash's desire for this to be over "Beside, having Donald and that Shadow guy in the same ship by themselves has trouble written on all over it."

The others nod, they couldn't argue with that logic.

Ash and Dawn pull out their Pokeballs

"Return!" They shouted simultaneously as their pokemon were caught in the beams of red light that shot forth from the poke balls. They're forms soon fade away as they are sucked back into their Pokeballs.

"Gawrsh where did those little fellas go?" Goofy asked, seeing the Pokemon disappearing before his very eyes.

"We put them back in their Pokeballs." Ash replied, gesturing to his Pokeball.

"Oh."

The group head into the gummi ship, but Ash runs around the gummi ship.

"Where are you going!" Sora asked, Ash's Pikachu agreeing with him.

A second later Ash comes flying around the other side of the gummi ship in the hover "You never know when you might need this thing." The Pokemon Trainer explained and promptly flew inside Sora's ship, soon followed by Pikachu.

"Okay?" Sora said, feeling rather awkward at seeing Ash on such a device.

Nathan, sensing Sora's confusion says "It's a hover, it allows the person riding on it to hover about in the air."

Sora scracthes his head "Not sure I understand, but okay." The two head inside the ship.

Now the only two who remained outside was Dawn and Danny.

"Aren't you coming?" Dawn asked

"I can't leave him behind!" Danny replied, worried for his friend "Just tell the others, I'm sure they will understand."

Dawn nods understandingly "I understand, be careful Phantom."

Danny gives the Pokemon Coordinator grins "Don't worry about me." And with that said, the ghostly halfa flies off after Joshua. For a moment, Dawn watches him go before she heads inside the ship.
