Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blind Sight

Chapter Twenty Six: the Blazing volcano.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

One week after Blaze and Sunny left...

In Opal Valley, all was quiet, well... comparitively...

Most of the adults in the town had left in hopes of catching the human responsibe for the disasters, and saving the world. That brings us to today, where two familiar pokemon were gathered with the remaining adults in a meeting.

"Erikson and Harmony, so good of you to join us." The Sceptile greeted. "We have realized that it was your plan entirely to let the two fugitives go."

"Those fugitives, as you put it, are children." Harmony stepped up. "Besides, we don't even know if they are a threat to the worlds balance. We are basing these claims on a fairy tale and mere gossip, and I can't go along with this!"

"I understand your concern, but everything lines up." Mewlin explained. "My research states that it has been exactly 1000 years since the ninetails legend came to be, and how conveniant that a child shows up on the very day that became so. Not only that, but she was unaware of the pokemon world we live in. Yellow Snows report confirmed the suspicions."

Erik then spoke. "You're all idiots. Sunny and Blaze have done nothing but good since they started a rescue team. Remember the earthquake months ago? Would someone who abandoned their partner decide to jump through flames to rescue a pichu?"

"No, but..." The gulpin pondered.

"Exactly!" Erik threw his hands in the air in frustration.

"Okay, that's enough!" The gengar known as Yellow Snow pounded his fists on the table. "Sunny is the human from the legend, and you let her escape."

He paced around the room. "Even if you don't believe it was right, you still assisted fugitives. And that... will cost you."

"What are you going to do?" Harmony stared, crossing her arms.

"If you don't bring Blaze and Sunny here, to me..." He held a pokemon egg over the ground.

"Where... did you...?!" Harmony realized.

"You fiend!" Erik yelled. "You wouldn't dare hurt our egg."

"You're right." The gengar nodded "I won't, if you can catch them."

Harmony looked at Erik with concern, as did Erik. There was no way out of going after them, they would have to persue Sunny and Blaze, for the sake of their egg.

...

Weeks had passed since the duo had left Lapis cave.

They weren't even sure how long it had been since they left Opal Valley, but they were probably right in assuming that yesterday was the 28th of november.

"We're getting close, right?" Sunny asked. "The air feels hotter and hotter."

Blaze nodded. "We're definitely here..."

Before them was a massive volcano.

"By the way, it's active, so I would watch my step, if I were you." Blaze commented.

"It feels active." Sunny nodded.

And so, they hurried inside the large volcano. which was active. and flowing with lava.

"We'll have to be really careful here, even though we both have an advantage."

"What makes you say that?"

"Sunny..." Blaze sighed. "Have you ever heard of Valor, Mystic, and Instinct?"

"No?" Sunny shook her head

"Turf wars, based on typing. Im fire, so they'd assume I'm a valor, but... you'd definitly be seen as a mystic."

"A... Mystic...?" Sunny asked.

"They're the smart group, who think themselves above others. Valors are usually strong but..." Blaze paused. "Finally the Instincts are the funny group. super cool, super chill. That's what I've heard anyway. they're water and ice, fire, and electric respectivly."

"What if an electric type wants to join another team?" Sunny asked.

"That pokemon would have to be either have two types, or have to beat the boss."

"Boss?"

"The three flying legendarys, Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos are in charge of these... gangs."

"Oh."

They continued walking through the firey volcano...

(Mount Blaze Floor Seven)

"Some of the fire pokemon are staring at you." Blaze pointed.

"So?" Sunny questioned.

"Do you think they've ever seen a water pokemon before?"

"I'm not sure if I've ever seen a water pokemon before."

(Mount Blaze Floor Eight)

"Sunny, watch your step!" Blaze grabbed her hand. "Magma is everywhere here."

"I'm being careful."

(Mount Blaze Floor Nine)

"Again?!" Sunny yelled, standing on the stairs to floor ten.

(Mount Blaze Floor Ten)

"Is it strange to be in a place that shares the same name as you?" Sunny asked.

"Kind of, I guess." Blaze nodded

(Mount Blaze Floor Eleven)

"How many floors does this place haaaave..." Blaze whined.

"I dunno, more than eleven?"

(Mount Blaze Floor Twelve)

"How do all these gummis get here?" Blaze picked up a gummi.

"If there is more than one gummi, it's probably a monster house." Sunny pointed out. (Dungeon logic)

(Mount Blaze Mid)

"Thank mew, we can rest." Blaze fell backwards. "I'm so tired."

Sunny sat next to him. "This volcano was a good idea. Most of the pokemon chasing us don't usually go into dungeons, and this one would be quite a challenge."

"You're probably right." Blaze agreed.

They sat in silence for a moment.

"I wonder what's become of the town since we left." Sunny thought. "I hate to complain, but I'm a little homesick."

"I am too." Blaze gave a weak smile. "I miss fresh food, my room, air conditioning..."

"And don't get me started on my bed!" They both said at the same time, then laughed.

"I haven't gotten good sleep in ages!" Blaze exclaimed.

"I know, right?" Sunny agreed. "You try focusing on surroundings without good sleep. Everything is so hard to pinpoint!"

"I would have never guessed." Blaze stretched his little arms. "You never look like you have any trouble finding things. I mean, lava I can understand."

Sunny shook her head. "No,no I am the worst. If something has been moved, it takes me forever to find it again, and things that come out of nowhere, like being thrown, or floating..."

"What about mystery dungeons? you seem to think they're easy enough."

"I don't have to memorize the layout of them, because they're never the same."

Sunny yawned, leaning against the wall. "I'm... tired..."

Blaze nodded. "You need your sleep, so if you want... I could watch for anyone coming."

No answer.

"Sun?"

Sunny was already asleep, right there on the rocky path.

She must have really been tired... Blaze thought, pulling one of the red vests out of his bag. It's not much, but she won't have to sleep on the ground at least.

And so, Blaze kept watch, for an hour. The silence eventually lead to him falling asleep too.

They would need their rest for what would come... tomorrow.

Meanwhile, at the bottom of Mount Blaze...

"So this is it..." The gardevoir stood. "I want to go after them, but..."

"But what?" A smaller voice asked.

Harmonys eyes widened. "Melody?! What are you doing here! It's dangerous!"

"I wanted to go too." She frowned. "It's just... I've never been in a mystery dungeon and I wanted to see what it was like and..." She looked up with pleading sapphire eyes. "Pleaaaase?"

Erik thought for a moment. "It's not a bad idea."

Harmony had the look of disbelief and distress across her face. "WHAT?! She can't go, it's too dangerous."

"If I could learn how to fight though..." Melody gave the biggest puppy eyes ever. "Please mom?"

"Give me a minute..." Harmony turned around. "What made this a good idea?"

"If she goes back to town, they might threaten her safety." Erik explained. "And we're passed the point of no return. We can't make her walk back on her own, and if we return without Sunny and Blaze to take her back... Who knows what'll happen to..."

"To what?" Melody asked.

"It's nothing." Harmony decided. "Let's camp for the night, You need to sleep, if we want to make it through Mount Blaze tomorrow."
