Thanks to Artemis for the reviews! And I'm glad that someone else thinks this is funny (I'm no longer alone!).

...

Brandon fell flat on his face as he was thrown into a cell with all of the Frontier Brains plus his eldest son. The others were put in the neighbouring cell. As the pyramid king picked himself up off of the floor he was swiftly knocked back down by a fist connecting with his face. He heard his fellow brains gasp. The identity of the culprit was of no surprise to him however. Reggie looked so furious and angry that Brandon was almost afraid, he picked himself back up. Only to be knocked down again, he had made no attempt to block the second punch.

"Whoa Reggie calm down!" Screamed Lucy.

"Leave your old man alone!" Said Spencer.

"And Brandon how about blocking..." Greta couldn't help but resist giving him combat advice.

"An adult should never strike a child..." Said Brandon grimly. "Never."

"Then you won't complain if I give you what's been coming to you!" Yelled the Pokemon breeder.

Fortunately Noland grabbed Reggie stopping him from hitting his father for a third time. The factory head was just strong enough to lift the young man off of the ground. He struggled helplessly while the rest of the frontier brains just starred in shock.

"Reggie! Stop!" Ordered Noland.

"Why?" He asked. "All you have ever done is make my life and Paul's worse! And now by not sticking to the plan and doing your own thing, you've gone and got us all killed!"

"Reggie..." Sighed Anabel.

"No! I've put up with this for years and so has Paul! You don't care about anyone but yourself! You chased us out!"

"No!" Bellowed Brandon, it was enough to make Reggie be quite but he looked as ferocious as ever. "I will not see your good heart clouded over by the same hatred and cruelty that is in mine! Reggie you are right. I am a pathetic excuse for a father! And every day I am reminded of it... But I will not see you become like me or him..."

"Who's him?" Asked Greta, Brandon ignored her.

"What about Paul, did you just forget about him and..." Reggie suddenly paused looking surprised. "And you don't have your handcuffs on anymore."

Brandon smiled, he was holding in his hands the handcuffs and several keys. He through the keys to the other frontier Brains.

"How did you get those?" Asked Reggie.

"Saturn gave them to me." Answered Brandon. "When he hit me."

"You mean he's on our side?" Asked Noland letting go of Reggie.

"Yes. You see we figured that we needed to set the other captives free so that Cyrus couldn't use them as hostages..." Explained Brandon. "So I asked Saturn and Mars to put on that little act."

"I still can't get away with the fact you asked him to hit you..." Laughed Lucy undoing her handcuffs.

"You're all first class actors!" Laughed Spencer, helping Anabel.

"How are we going to get out of here?" Asked Greta.

Lucy smiled and opened the door it wasn't even locked! The frontier Brains walked out with Brandon holding the door open, Reggie stopped in the doorway.

"Sorry..." He muttered.

"You are right..." Said Brandon. "I'm a terrible father... And I'm amazed you and your brother even put up with me... There is a cruel side to me as there was to my father, I battle it as best I can but know this as I hope you remember there was not a gentler soul on this planet than your mother use her good heart not mine... "

"You're not that bad... When you're in a good mood..." Reggie smiled warmly. "But you mentioned grandad what was he like?"

"Another time Reggie!" Comanded Brandon walking off quickly.

With that son at least, all was forgiven. They went to the cell with the rest of the prisoners and opened the door. Inside they looked astounded to see the Kanto battle frontier walking around freely.

"Battle frontier rescue service!" Said Tucker. "Would you like to be rescued so that you can save the world now or later?"

"I think now is best..." Said Cynthia rushing out, Reggie caught a sad looking Byron as he too exited.

"You're Roark's father right?" He said. "The guy with a hard hat."

"Yes but..."

"I've got good news for you! He's alive and well..." Said Reggie Byron looked overjoyed.

"What about Paul?" Asked Ash, he's going no where quickly.

Reggie looked in the cell. Sure enough sitting in a corner was his little bro. He looked shocked... Reggie ran over with Brandon following. He shock his brother who seemed almost lifeless.

"It's no good, he doesn't even move !" Said Brock.

"Come on Paul! Snap out of it!" Said Reggie. "It's me Reggie!"

"Reg?" He muttered.

"Come on young man, no excuse for slacking! After all it's the end of the world out there!" Said Brandon, Paul gave him an annoyed look but without the usual hositlity. "What do you want me to carry you? Cause I will ya' know!"

"No! Don't you dare!"

Too late the pyramid king picked up his youngest son and put him over his shoulder despite his protests. Ash watched in confusion as Paul was carried along swearing and cursing like mad. At the end of the corridor Brandon put him back down.

"What happened to your eye?" Asked Paul.

"Oh, your brother... You'd be proud of him..." Brandon said sort of smiling.

"Hang on... Reggie you hit Brandon?" Asked Ash, Brandon glared this was none of the foolish kid's business.

"Let's just forget about that one..." Sighed Reggie. "How about saving the world?"

They ran out of Team Galactic's base. Cyrus was currently waving his hands around and shouting insanely he didn't even notice that his prisoners had broken out. J slightly less distractable had however and called out Salamance and pointed her hand cannon at them but fortunately for them a well aimed Focus Punch and razor claws knocked the huge dragon away, making it's rider miss.

"I was beginning to wonder if you'd ever arrive..." Said Saturn.

"There was a bit of a problem..." Said Noland glancing at Brandon and Reggie.

"We've got to stop Cyrus!" Yelled Ash.

The trainers called out their Pokemon. It was quite an impressive sight. Cyrus turned around however seemingly not fazed. Brandon glared at the two huge legendary Pokemon in the air then at the lake guardians. He was sure that Cynthia was thinking the same thing as he was but decided not to say anything... He needed to see if he was right...

"Pikachu use thunder!" Yelled Ash.

"Dialga Roar of time!"

"Regice, Regirock, Registeel use Hyperbeam!" Yelled Brandon realising what was about to happen.

The golems were just in time. Pikachu's thunder attack flew towards Cyrus but was swiftly stopped dead by Dialga's attack which didn't stop and continued straight forwards towards them. Fortunately the hyperbeam was just in time to block the attack. The energy from the attacks hitting felt like an earthquake. Most people had to close their eyes to shade them from the light. When it was all over everything was clear, neither of the attacks had made contact.

"He's controlling Dialga and Palkia how?" Asked Spencer.

"Anabel can you get anything off of those two?" The tower maiden closed her eyes.

"They're both really angry... But it's weird... It's like they're..."

"Being controlled?" Filled in Brandon.

"Yes... How did you?"

"I've seen this before... A bunch of crooks called Team Rocket, about thirty years ago..." He explained. "The point is how is he doing it."

"Maybe if you Kanto guys stopped talking and listened to Cyrus's insane ramblings, you'd understand." Cut in Flint.

"... The red chain comes from the original one and no body can resist it."

"Well that explains it!" Yelled Tucker.

"We need to free the lake guardians..." Said Cynthia. "They'll help us. the legend says they can calm Dialga and Palkia."

"If you say so..." Sighed Greta. "My Sinnoh mythology is a bit rusty..."

"We need a plan..." Said Noland to Tucker.

"Right, we share the work 50/50, Brandon, Noland, Paul, Reggie and whoever the Sinnoh champion is try to hold of Dialga and Palkia. That makes four legendaries and a lot of powerful Pokemon, you ought to be able to hold them off for a bit. We'll free the lake guardians and deal with the rest of those... Fashion freaks..."

"I've always liked that frontier Brain!" Said James.

Brandon grumbled as yet another attack flew towards them this time, Palkia attacked with Spacial Rift. Again he ordered his Pokemon to attack and use Hyperbeam. It blocked but the pyramid king knew his legendaries wouldn't do this forever. Paul called out a huge grass Pokemon, Brandon looked at it with interest, he'd never seen one like that before.

"It's Torterra, remember?" Asked Reggie.

"I've never seen this before..."

"It was a Tertwig!" Exclaimed Paul. "It evolved!"

"You mean to say a cute little green tortoise suddenly turned into that Giant creature?"

"Yes, now come on! Torterra use giga drain on Palkia!"

"Drapion sludge bomb on Dialga!" Yelled Reggie.

"Articuno use Ice beam on the blue one!" Ordered Noland.

"Ice beam Regice and Regirock use stone edge on Dialga, that's it's name Noland! And Registeel use zap canon on Palkia!" Ordered Brandon.

"Garchomp use stone egde on Palkia as well!" Ordered Cynthia.

"Dialga use earth power and Palkia dragon claw!"

They winced as the attacks made contact. It would seem that because of their number the attacks made it past those of the Pokemon of time and Space and each made contact with their target Pokemon. Making contact their was quite a bit of smoke and dust both Reggie and Noland looked hopeful after all the power in the combined attacks was enough to make most people gasp in awe and was unlikely to be recreated. They could see a large battle breaking out between the remaining galactic grunts and the Battle frontier, Sinnoh gym leaders and League and Ash and his friends. There was a red and a blue glow and without warning two hyperbeams ripped through the dust. They had just enough time to jump out of the way, as did their Pokemon. Brandon landed hardly on his shoulder and out of his backpack rolled a blue orb that was violently pulsating.

"How could those attacks not of done anything?" Asked Paul shocked.

"We're just not quite powerful enough..." Said Cynthia.

"With four legendary Pokemon?" Questioned Noland. "What else could help? I mean if that didn't do anything. Brandon what are you doing?"

"Seeing if an old friend will help." He said holding the orb before whispering. "Regigigas I know that last time you were awoken, things didn't exactly go as planned but I'm afraid once more we need you assistance..."

The orb seemed to light up a bit more in response but nothing happened. "I wonder..." Thought Brandon to himself. He stood up.

"Regigigas I need you assistance!" He yelled throwing the orb like he would a Pokeball.

There was a bright red light just as there had been in Snowpoint temple not too long ago when it disappeared the huge titan was standing in front of him. It looked a lot calmer and his Regis actually looked moderately happy to have their leader back. The others were just starring at the Pokemon is disbelief.

"It's good to see you again, Regigigas." Said Brandon.

"Regi.." Answered the giant Pokemon.

"I'm sure you're aware but we need some help... Do you think you might be of some assistance?"

"REGIGIGAS!" Roared the Pokemon.

Brandon gasped as it reached towards him, had it gone on yet another rampage? Did they now have three legendary Pokemon to defeat? To his surprise, the pokemon picked him up gently and put him on his shoulder, he looked down this was really high! Regigigas launched a hyberbeam at Dialga making contact the pokemon screeched, at least it had felt it! He heard Reggie calling up from down bellow.

"How long exactly have you had that thing?"

"Since that thing that was in the news..." Yelled Brandon.

"You were behind that!" Cried Cynthia.

"It's a long story..." He replied.

"Look out!" Warned Paul.

Palkia's spacial rift hit the giant Pokemon almost knocking it off of it's feet. Brandon was forced to hold on for dear life. He dangled dangerously over the side of the titan as it seemed to fall over before catching it's self. Regirock, Regice and Registeel joined the fight using hyperbeam. For some reason the golems didn't seem to need to wait. Brandon winced and tried to dodge the attacks now flying around him. He could see his son's nervous faces and ratehr wished he was on the ground with them.

In the distance, it looked like Ash, Dawn and Brock were in some kind of trance. He hoped that they would free those legendary lake guardians pronto or else the would all be toast! A draco-meteor flew into the side of Regigigas. Brandon felt an unbearable pain and started to fall backwards. The attack had missed and hit him.

"No! Torterra use frenzy plant quick!" Screamed Paul.

The Pyramid King's fall was brutally stopped by the grass Pokemon attack. He was genitally lowered down to the ground where Paul and Reggie rushed over to him in panic.

"Are you ok?" Asked Paul who was bordering on hysterical.

"I'm fine..." Brandon tried to get up but couldn't because of the pain.

"Come on get up!" Screamed the youngest son.

"Paul, he's in no state to do anything..." Said Noland.

"As much as I hate to admit it... Noland's right..." Sighed Brandon. "I can't stand let alone fight..."

"So what are we going to do without your Regis?" Asked Reggie. "I'm not sure we can fight Dialga and Palkia without them."

"Why would you even try such a move?" Reggie and Paul looked confused. "You can command them."

"Your Regi's are too powerful for us I mean couldn't Cynthia..." Started Paul.

"NO!" Yelled Brandon before wincing in pain. "I mean no offence to you champion of Sinnoh but I believe that the Regis will only listen to you two..."

"Why?" Asked Paul.

"You know why..."

Paul starred down at his father before exchanging a determined glance with his older brother. They ran over towards where the three golems and their leader were waiting. Both humans looked slightly nervous... They glanced upwards a Roar of time and spacial rift were heading straight for them.

"Regice use zap canon!" Begged Paul. "And Regirock stone edge!"

"Registeel flashcanon!" Ordered Reggie.

"Regigigas use Hyperbeam!" Yelled both Paul and Reggie at the sale time.

The golems starred at the children blankly for a moment before very slowly turning around and to the general amazement and joy of all those present launched their attacks blocking the incoming legendary assault. By now Cyrus, no matter how clinically insane was beginning to realise that he might not win here. On one side Paul and Reggie had taken over the golems and were stopping Palkia and Dialga from disturbing Ash and his friends who had successfully defeated the remaining galactic grunts and had now freed the lake guardians but seemed to be having a nice little chat with them instead of doing anything useful... The madman turned to the opening portal.

"Soon my new world will be born and this one will be destroyed!" He yelled.

"Seesh... Why can't this guy live in his universe by himself and leave ours alone?" Asked Tucker.

"I don't think he's in his right mind..." Said Spencer. "Anabel?"

"I'm getting excitement, happiness and a bit of complete insanity..." Said the girl.

"Destroy the red chain quickly!" Ordered Cynthia.

"Regis use hyberbeam!" Yelled both sons.

"Pikachu use thunder!"

"Piplup bubblebeam!"

"Arcanine use flamethrower!" Ordered Tucker.

"Articuno ice beam!"

"Hariyama focus punch!"

The list of attacks went on. Despite Cyrus's last desperate attempt the attacks made contact with the red rings shattering them into a million pieces. There was a yell of joy from part of the battle frontier and most of the sinnoh gym leaders yelled in victory. Reggie punched in the air and even Paul smiled (it was so strange that Ash almost fell over in shock) the legendary pokemon were no longer under the mad man's power! However Cyrus started to walk into the portal.

"Cyrus don't!" Yelled Ash, Paul shrugged he didn't really care what happened to that man.

"My new world it's so perfect..." He said.

Everyone watched as the leader of team galactic marched into the portal, disappearing soon afterwards. Paul wondered if Ash would want to go in after him... He seriously hoped not. Why go after somebody who clearly wanted you dead... Oddly it was Zoey who asked :

"Should we like go in after him or something?"

Before anyone could respond both Dialga and Palkia destroyed the portal using some attacks. The legendary pokemon starred at the group of people beneath them in interest before fading away and vanishing. Paul and Reggie looked at their father who was trying to stand but failing. They walked over to him and let him lean of them. The attack had most defiantly done some damage... But he still found the strength to smile warmly as his two boys helped him. With everyone else following they left the cave. Outside Samuel was waiting he looked awfully worried especially when he saw the state of the pyramid king.

"Sir! Are you alright?"

"I'm... Urgh..." Brandon grunted in pain.

"I'm urgh? That's a new one...Are you urgh Reggie?" Said Tucker just managing to dodge one of Brandon's fists.

"Let's get to that Pokemon centre already!" Snapped Brandon. "Roark and nurse Joy will be wondering where we are... And I really need some pain killers..."
