"Seaside Galaxy"

Disclaimer: Although I own Pokémon Platinum for my Nintendo DS, I do not own any of the Pokémon characters, games, names, or any of the other cool stuff. They all belong to Nintendo and Game Freak. Also, this fanfiction was made for fun and not for cash (unfortunately).

Notes:

-Thanks to the wonderful creation that is summer vacation, I can upload the story twice as fast now!

-In addition, I've just graduated from high school, so I have no summer school or anything!

-To avoid any confusion, if I mention "Paul", I'm talking about the small Paul. Anytime I talk about Galactic Paul, I refer to him as "Galactic Paul".

-Be prepared for some harsh language. Paul's family really hates Galactic Paul.

PAUL GETS BANNED IN THREE DAYS

Paul and Regina remained stunned as they looked up at the tall, purple-haired man who wore a Team Galactic outfit. "You!" growled Regina.

"Hello honey…and son," the tall man replied.

"Dad…" muttered Paul.

"You seem surprised to see me," said Galactic Paul in a deep voice. "I thought you would be happy to see me again."

Without warning, Regina struck Galactic Paul across the face. "Alright mom," Paul said, apathetically.

"You bastard!" Regina shouted, angrily. "How dare you show your face to me and my sons! You have caused nothing but harm to my family."

"Our family," corrected Galactic Paul.

"My family," repeated Regina.

"Mom, can I say something?" asked Paul.

Regina stepped aside and let Paul walked up to his father. "Why dad? Why did you leave me, mom, and Reggie?" he asked.

"That is why!" Regina then pointed to the "G" insignia on the silver outfit of Galactic Paul. "Your father left this family to become a criminal!"

"A criminal who is very wealthy and owns many powerful Pokémon," added Galactic Paul.

Paul's eyes opened wide as he heard the last part. "Powerful Pokémon?" asked Paul.

"Don't bribe him with Pokémon that you obviously stole!" protested Regina.

"Mom…wait!" Paul shouted, suddenly.

"That's right! Paul is a big boy. Let him decide on his own!" argued Galactic Paul.

"Shut up!" Paul shouted. "What are you doing with the elemental stones you're stealing?"

"Oh…you want to learn more about our plan?" asked Galactic Paul. "Well…I like to tell you but…"

All of a sudden, several Team Galactic members surrounded the three. The Team Galactic members worse black suits and dresses and had dyed their hair either black or brown to avoid suspicion among the commoners. The Team Galactic members ambushed Regina and Paul and forced them down onto their knees. "…I rather tell you when the right moment comes."

Dawn was bathing in the women's bathing room. She was still trying to get rid of what happened between Dawn and Paul. She accidentally walked in on Paul in the men's bathing room. Of course, she didn't realize it until she got into the water. At that point, Paul began…

Dawn shook her head. She didn't want to remember that! "That was so embarrassing!" Dawn thought. "That stuff usually happens when a guy walks into a women's bath room, not the other way around! Why didn't that idiot tell me?"

Dawn got up from the water. "Suddenly, I'm not interested in a hot bath," she muttered. She got out of the water and grabbed a towel to cover her body before heading out the door.

She turned back to the men's baths. There stood Reggie, his lower body wrapped in a towel. The two locked eyes, but then turned away blushing. Although Reggie wasn't involved with what happened, he did walk in on them. Dawn and Reggie continued walking back to the changing rooms, staring away from each other.

The two broke away into separate gender-designated changing rooms. There was a little small opening high up in the ceiling, allowing Dawn and Reggie to talk to each other. "Soooo…Dawn…" Reggie said, trying to break the silence. "What was that between you and Paul?"

"I don't want to talk about it," Dawn replied, quickly.

"Dawn, one of these days, you and Paul have to talk about this. If you don't, you two may never be able to talk to each other again."

"It's not like I want to talk to him after what happened."

Outside of the entranceway to the changing rooms, Galactic Paul, Paul, Regina, and the Team Galactic members could hear Dawn and Reggie's conversation coming from the inside. "Dawn, you know this was your fault. You walked into the men's room," echoed Reggie's voice.

"Well, the sign blended into the background! They really need to put that in bold print!" protested Dawn.

"What is she talking?" Regina asked.

"I don't want to discuss it," Paul replied.

After Dawn and Reggie were fully dressed, they stepped outside…only to find many Team Galactic members facing them. "What in the world?" asked Dawn. The door behind them suddenly closed. Two Galactic team members jumped out and knocked out Dawn and Reggie unconsciously. "Come on!" one of them said. "We have to hurry before Commander Paul leaves us here!"

The two slapped handcuffs on Dawn and Reggie and they dragged them into a dark hallway.

The door opened again and Looker stepped out, wiping his face. "Wow…that was a good bath," he remarked to himself. "Ever since I took the case, it has been nonstop traveling for me. But enough vacation time! I must chase after Team Galactic. I don't want to miss a thing!" he shouted, proudly.

After being unconscious for so long, Dawn shook her head slightly as she awake. She still felt groggy and could still feel that punch to the head. "Where…where am I?" she asked.

"You're in a jail cell," said a voice.

Dawn finally woke up and looked behind her. There was Paul, sitting on a steel bench. "AAHH!" shouted Dawn. Dawn suddenly scooted away until her back was against the wall. "Stay away from me, pervert!" she shouted.

"Dawn, please don't bring that up again," Paul said.

"Yes, it was so funny I almost died laughing," said a deeper voice.

Dawn looked outside the cell and saw Galactic Paul watching over them. "You! You're…you're…" stuttered Dawn.

"Yes, I am Paul Senior. I am one of the top commanders of Team Galactic, the favorite of Leader Cyrus, owner of many powerful Pokémon and is secretly one of the richest people in the Sinnoh region," he said, proudly.

Suddenly, Paul coughed a bit. "Oh…and I'm that boy's father," added Galactic Paul. He continued to smirk down at Dawn. "It is so nice to meet the woman of Paul's dreams. Personally, I think you're a loudmouth, but Paul seems happy about meeting you."

"WHAT?" Dawn asked. "Paul and I aren't…"

"Don't give me that!" interrupted Galactic Paul. "I heard about you and Paul getting frisky in the hot baths."

"Huh?"

"Like I said, you're a loudmouth. We all heard about your little encounter," explained Galactic Paul.

"Yeah…way to go loudmouth," complained Paul.

"Hey!" Dawn shouted.

Galactic Paul then began heading out the door. "I'm give you guys so time to talk," he said, before heading out the door…and locking it shut.

Dawn turned back to Paul. Paul just looked away. "You just can't keep anything to yourself, can you?" Paul asked.

"Excuse me, mister!" Dawn shouted back. "You're the one who embarrassed me!"

"You saw me naked! I'm the one embarrassed here! Why didn't you read the signs?"

"Wait…wait…wait…wait!" Dawn shouted. "Let's talk about the real reason why I'm here! Why did you leave me all of your Pokémon and dragged me, your mom, and Reggie all over the region to find you?"

"I was worried about you!" Regina shouted from another cell.

"Why Paul?" asked Reggie.

"Because I wanted to some to find some stronger Pokémon," answered Paul.

"Paul, you had stronger Pokémon!" argued Dawn. "Luxray, Torterra, Ursaring, Weavile, Honchkrow…all of them have incredible strength!"

"None of them could defeat Fantina's Pokémon," said Paul. "And the Sharpedo, Shiftry, and Drapion I captured don't even listen to me."

"Maybe your Pokémon are trying to tell you something!" suggested Reggie.

"Yeah, apparently they don't want to be part of my team, so I left them with Dawn," replied Paul.

"No, you idiot! Maybe they're tired of the way you've been treating them!" shouted Dawn.

"Wow, you and Shiftry say the same thing," added Paul.

"Maybe because IT'S THE TRUTH!" Dawn shouted, angrily.

"Oh yeah? What has compliments and happiness brought to your Pokémon, Dawn…except failure?" asked Paul.

In the meeting room, the four Galactic Commanders (Paul, Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter) sat around a round steel table. "Alright then fellow Commanders," Mars said. "As you know, our Shadow Machine is almost at full power, thanks to the two elemental stones we 'borrowed'."

"Yes, but we still need the Moltei Stone to fully power-up the machine," Saturn said.

"Yes, but unfortunately, after our last two thefts, the last stone we need is under very heavy security," Jupiter added.

"So, how are we going to do it?" asked Mars. "How are we going to steal the last stone now?"

The three turned to Galactic Paul, who hasn't said a word so far. "Hmmm…maybe the family wants to help the 'man of the house'," suggested Mars.

"Yes, they should get a taste of the family business," joked Saturn.

"My wife threw a flower vase at my head when I told about my new job. And my eldest son is too much of an effeminate sissy to be of any use," explained Galactic Paul.

"And what about your other son?" asked Jupiter.

"I think he hates me the most."

"I don't know," said Mars. "I overheard his conversation with the girl and he's just as power-hungry as you were. He gave up all of his 'weak' Pokémon just so that he may catch some new ones."

"Hmmm…"

Galactic Paul thought to himself for a moment. He got up from his seat. "I have just conducted a fool-proof plan," he spoke out loud.

The door to the jail cells opened up. Galactic Paul stepped inside. He first stopped in front of Reggie's cell and Regina's cell, who finishing up their dinner. He turned to Reggie. "Hello son," he smirked, evilly. Reggie continued to glare at him. "Do these living conditions meet your expectations, princess?" insulted Galactic Paul.

"Meh…" replied Reggie. "Free food, a roof over my head…for once, you're actually acting like a father."

Galactic Paul's eyes narrowed. He turned to Regina, who glared back at him. He then continued down to Paul and Dawn's cell. He looked inside and saw Dawn staring angrily at an unconscious Paul. "What happened to him?" asked Galactic Paul.

"He insulted the way I treat my Pokémon, so I punched him in the stomach and knocked him out," she replied, angrily.

"Oh…"

Galactic Paul then smirked (A/N: How many times is he going to smirk? LOL). "Thank you, young lady. Now he won't put up a fight," commented Galactic Paul. He walked up and grabbed the unconscious Paul. He lifted him onto his shoulders. "Where are you taking him?" asked Dawn.

"I'm going to make him love him," answered Galactic Paul. He carried him out of the cell. Regina noticed this. "Where are you going with my son?" asked Regina.

"I need MY son," Galactic Paul answered. "How else do you think we're going to steal the last elemental stone?"

"No!" shouted Regina. Galactic Paul just gave a small laugh as he turned around. But suddenly, Regina reached out and grabbed him by the collar of his uniform. Galactic Paul fell back, dropping his son on the ground, and fell back against Regina's metal bars. Regina reached out and strangled him by the neck, making sure he was pinned down. Galactic Paul began gasping for air. "Well…y-y-you're a lot stronger…than before," he wheezed.

"You…are NOT going to make my little boy a criminal!" Regina growled.

"I'm just going to offer him a spot on Team Galactic," Galactic Paul explained. "If he says yes or no…that's entirely his decision."

Galactic Paul managed to break free from his wife's grip. "Why don't you let your son make his own decisions?" Galactic Paul asked. "Even when he and Reggie were children, you always made the decision for him. He wanted stronger Pokémon, but instead you gave him a little weak Growlithe and Poochyena. I don't think you even supported him once on his quest to obtain the most powerful Pokémon."

"Because I didn't want him to become a monster like you!" argued Regina.

Galactic Paul decided that it was better not to argue with her. He lifted Paul back onto his shoulders and carried him out of the jail cells. Regina put her fist to her mouth, trying her best not to cry in anger. "Don't worry mom," reassured Reggie. "I'm sure Paul will make the right choice."

"Oh Regina…I really want to believe that. I really, REALLY want to believe that," replied Regina.

Dawn didn't join in the conversation. She curled her body into a ball and began to cry softly. "Please Paul…don't do it," she muttered, softly.

TO BE CONTINUED…

A/N: I have a feeling I rushed this chapter a bit, but then again, this is the sixth part to "Seaside Galaxy". Like I mentioned at the beginning, this was going to be the longest DxP story in the series. But hopefully, I can wrap this up in three to four chapters.

Paul wakes up and finds his father in his face. His dad, straight to point, offers him a proposal: all of the souped-up Shadow Pokémon that Team Galactic captures in exchange for him stealing the Moltei Stone. At first, Paul flat out refuses to do it. But his father continues to monologue about how the trainers' way is long a tedious and etcetera…etcetera…

Will Paul make the right decision…or will he take his father's idea and steal the stone?
