Does it look like I own Pokemon. If I owned Pokemon I wouldn't be writing this fanfic!
Rise of the Champions
Aqua/Magma Saga
Episode 21, Charmander's Burning Ambition
I stared at my four Pokeballs and Ivysaur. I then started to realize the accomplishments my team and me had completely. We managed to win two badges, and defeated an admin of the Bandits.
"What are you smiling about?" Ivysaur asked.
"I was just realizing what we as a team managed to do," I answered.
"Well, don't get too happy," Chad said, as we traveled across the mountain range. "Mt. Topaz is a pretty exciting mountain full of really wild trainers, and wild Pokemon as well. Don't be surprised if we lose a couple battles."
I trembled. Not out of fear, but out of excitement! Tough trainers! Tough wild Pokemon! This was my kind of mountain!
"Then lets hurry!" I yelled, running down the narrow path ahead of us.
"Go, Oddish!" The opposing trainer yelled.
"Go, Charmander!" I cried. It was a couple hours later when I finally found a trainer. It was my fire type Charmander versus his little grass/poison type Oddish.
"Charmander, flamethrower attack!" Charmander's tail flame expanded and my fire lizard sent out a ray flames at the opposing Oddish. Oddish was stuck right in her face.
"Odd…" Oddish weakly said, falling over.
"I lose!" My opponent said, pulling on his hair. He quickly ran off, leaving me the only target for Charmander's flamethrower attack.
"CHAR!" he cried as he prepared to release his fiery breath on me. I quickly returned him into his Pokeball, and I heard someone appear behind me.
"Looks like you're having trouble with that Charmander of yours," The man said. He wore a blood red vest and pants to match. He also wore a lighter shade of red hat, which had an "M" on it. "Why don't you let me hold on to it for a while? I'm sure I could train it properly."
"No thanks," I said to the man. "I don't give away Pokemon to strangers."
"Well, then how about I battle you for him, then,"
"And what if I win?"
"I'll let you pass," The red man said, snapping his fingers. Many other men with the same exact clothes surrounded me, each having a dead serious look on their faces.
"I'm not going to just bargain on my Charmander!" I said, walking away. Suddenly, two of the red men grabbed me, and a third punched me in the face! All I could see was a blur until I blacked out…
"Vinny, you fucking moron!" I heard a familiar voice say. "Wake your lazy ass up!" I opened my eyes, to see Ivysaur cursing at me, right in front of my face.
"Say it, don't spray it," I said, wiping Ivysaur's saliva off me face. Nasty. I reached for the Pokeballs in my belt, a daily ritual I picked up whenever I wake up, and I noticed that one was missing! I sat up, and sent out all of my Pokemon I had with me, Heracross, Squirtle, and Butterfree!
"My Charmander's missing!" I yelled.
"What's with all the yelling?" Gary asked, walking over to us.
"That ass hole took my Charmander!" I yelled.
"Well yelling isn't going to help, is it?" Chad asked.
"It makes me feel better!"
"But will it make your Charmander?" Derek asked, interrupting our argument before it even begun.
"Can we just look for Charmander already?" Kelsey asked, irritated by our bickering.
"Even I have to agree with her, let's go find that fucking lizard already!" Ivysaur said, leading the way down the narrow path of the mountain.
"I heard a rumor about this place," Chad said. "Some say that an organization called Team Magma lives in this mountain,"
"Who's Team Magma?" I asked.
"Team Magma is an organization that has the goal expanding the landmass of all of Earth. They are also criminals that will do anything to get their hands on rare fire type Pokemon."
"And since my Charmander is a rare fire Pokemon,"
"Team Magma stole him," Kelsey finished. "I wonder what kind of torture they're giving Charmander…" she droned on, with a concerned tone in her voice. That made burst out laughing.
"What's so funny?" She asked angrily. "Don't you even care about Charmander?"
"If I know Charmander, he's probably torturing them, or rather, torching them!"
Normal POV
"We need back up!" a Magma member yelled. "That Charmander is out of control!"
"CHAR! CHAR!" the fire lizard yelled as he sent flames in every which way direction.
"That is one evil Charmander!" another Magma yelled. Charmander then sent his flamethrower attack on the Magma, setting his hair on fire!
"Put that spawn of Satan back in his Pokeball!" a different Magma ordered. One Magma grabbed a Pokeball, but Charmander didn't feel like going back into his Pokeball.
"This is the place," Chad said. He pointed towards a large blue door in the side of the mountain. "Now we just have to worry about breaking that door down."
"Leave that to me," Derek said. "Go Rhyhorn!" His ground/rock type Pokemon looked at everyone furiously, and charged at Derek.
"WAIT!" Derek cried. In a calmer tone, he said "There are a lot of defenseless creatures through that door over there, so why don't you charge at the door?"
"RHYHORN!" He cried as he charged at the door. The rock-skinned rhinoceros crashed the stone door down, crumbling it into tiny pieces of pebbles. Derek recalled his angry Pokemon and the heroes walked through the entrance, only to find a blue room, with a large pool in it.
"Welcome, Aqua members, please make your entrance with your water Pokemon," A computerized voice said.
"Aqua?" Vinny asked. "I thought this was Team Magma's base."
"ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!" The voice cried. "MENTION OF TEAM MAGMA HAS SET OFF THE ALARM!"
"Lets get outta here!" Gary screamed. The heroes ran for the entrance but were blocked off by five men with navy blue and white striped shirts. They also had navy blue jeans and blue bandanas with the capital letter "A" on them.
"Team Aqua members!" Chad said. "They use mostly water Pokemon, so we can take them down with electric or grass type Pokemon." Chad said while he sent out his Jolteon.
"Go Mareep!"
"Go Pikachu!"
"Go Treecko!"
"Yeah, yeah, I know I'm up." Ivysaur, Jolteon, Mareep, Pikachu, and Treecko encountered the six Aqua's a Krabby, two Poliwag, two Wooper, and a Totodile.
The match ups were: Krabby vs. Treecko. Poliwag vs. Pikachu. Poliwag vs. Jolteon. Two Wooper vs. Ivysaur. Totodile vs. Mareep.
"Bullet seed attack!" Treecko fired several solar energized seeds from his mouth at Krabby, but Krabby blocked the incoming barrage with his two pincers. Krabby shot several bubbles from his mouth and the bubble attack struck Treecko, while lowering his incredible speed. Treecko still managed to move much faster than Krabby so he ran quickly behind Krabby, and used the bullet seed attack yet again on Krabby's back.
"Pikachu, thunderbolt attack!" Pikachu hurled a yellow thunderbolt at Poliwag, and Poliwag took the hit, but managed to stand up again after being knocked down from Pikachu's shocking attack. Poliwag's swirl on his belly spun, and Pikachu started to fall asleep. Poliwag quickly waddled at Pikachu, and slapped him silly with his tail, using the double slap attack. Unfortunately, this attack woke Pikachu, who in turn bit Polwag's tail, and then electrocuted him.
Jolteon easily dodged the other Poliwag's hypnosis attack by running quickly behind him. Jolteon struck Poliwag with a bolt of lightning, and the match was over.
Ivysaur was surrounded by the two Wooper's water gun attack. While quite pleased having his plant watered, he didn't want to get his bud on his back soaked too much, so he shot out all four of his vines, and used all four of them to whip the enemy Wooper. Wooper's slippery skin helped their bodies avoid the whips, but they weren't prepared for Ivysaur's razor leaf. The super sharp leaves struck both Woopers, beating them both.
"Totodile, enough fooling around already!" The Aqua yelled. "Use the bite attack!" Totodile refused to listen, so it jumped up and down like a buffoon.
"Mareep, thunderbolt attack!" Kelsey ordered. Mareep gathered static electricity, and fired a ray of blue electricity from her fleece. The bolt struck Totodile, knocking him down, but Totodile stood up again and ran around in circles for no good reason.
"YOU FUCKING RETARD! LITTLE BASTARD! USE YOUR FUCKING WATER GUN ATTACK!" Totodile, angered by his owner's verbal abusing, ran at the Aqua, bit him in his well, groin, and grabbed his Pokeball. He went over to Kelsey, walking away from the cursing Aqua, holding his balls. Totodile recalled himself inside his Pokeball, and Kelsey received a new Pokemon, Totodile. While things seemed that they couldn't get any better for Kelsey, Mareep flashed a white light, and changed shape. Now the yellow Mareep evolved to her next stage, the pink Flaafy.
"Look's like you all lose, guys," Vinny said, acting like a good sport. Now will you let us all go now?" The Aqua members looked at Vinny and his friends, and then behind the heroes, and smirked.
"What's so funny?" Gary asked angrily. He looked behind, and saw about twenty members of Team Aqua behind them, each holding pistols in their hands.
"Recall all of your Pokemon, NOW!" one said. The Heroes did as they told. "Good, now follow us." A few Aquas stepped up towards the heroes, and tied their hands behind their backs with ropes, and took them to a prison cell, Derek and Chad in one cell, Kelsey and Gary in another, and Vinny and Ivysaur all alone in a separate cage. They were spread out far apart so they wouldn't be able to communicate with a different cell. The Aquas then took each of their Pokeballs from their belts, leaving everyone with out Pokemon except Vinny, who had Ivysaur.
Meanwhile, Team Magma finally managed to capture Charmander, who was thrown into a heat resistant cage.
"Charmander…" Charmander said, while feeling defeated.
"RRR!" A voice said in a dark corner in the cell.
"Char?" Charmander said, checking to see who the growl belonged to. He brought his tail to reveal who was standing in the corner, and he saw…
"GET US OUT OF HERE!" Vinny yelled.
"Would you just shut the fuck up already?" Ivysaur asked. "It won't work, just like the last twenty times!"
Vinny looked down at the ground. "Yeah, I guess there is no hope for us. We might be down here forever…"
