Moemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia

Chapter 29

"Hah…" Kurou said, standing up, panting. "No way!"

"Huh?" Drapion asked, her eyes widening, surprised. "Wow, you're stronger than I thought, girl."

"Go!" I shouted, shooting out a disk at the Drapion, who was distracted.

"Hey!" Drapion exclaimed, looking around at the rings forming around her body. "That's not fair!"

Drapion performed a karate chop on the ring of light, shattering it to pieces, doing more damage to my styler.

"This is bad…" I said, checking the gauge, which read 10. "If Drapion does 3 damage with each attack, I can only take four more hits…"

"Whirlwind!" Kurou shouted, creating a strong gust of wind pointed directly at Drapion. The wind began pushing her back, and soon she was being pushed against guard railing of the ship.

"Sludge bomb!" Drapion shouted, opening her mouth, spitting a sphere of corrosive acid at Kurou.

"Thundershock!" Mary said, holding her hand up, releasing a small spark of electricity, which hit the sludge bomb, causing it to detonate in midair, spraying the acid over Kurou, burning holes in her clothes and singing her skin, instead of the deadly corrosive power it had in its concentrated form.

"Thanks for the save!" Kurou said, helping Mary to her feet.

"Anytime, partner!" Mary said, smiling. "After all, I don't want master saddened because you were burned away into nothing!"

"Really?" Kurou asked, shocked. "Most girls I know would be glad if I was melted."

"Yeah, well not me!" Mary said, smiling. "We're friends, aren't we?"

"Mary…" Kurou said, tearing up. "You're such a good person!"

Kurou hugged Mary, touched by her kindness.

"If you're quite done?" Drapion asked, frowning. "Sludge bomb!"

Drapion opened her mouth, spitting a corrosive acid at the two, when suddenly a capture disk shot out, colliding with the acid.

"What?" Drapion and I exclaimed, surprised, turning to see Petal holding up her hand.

"Can't you see they're having a moment?" Petal asked, smirking. "As much as I hate the idea of having to share Kelly with other women, if something happened to those two it would make him sad. So if you want to attack them, you'll have to get through me!"

"Maybe." Drapion said, smirking. "But after that last attack, your styler's nothing more than a pile of slag."

Drapion was right. I looked down to see the remains of Petal's stlyer, melted into a mound of metal from the power of sludgebomb.

"Fine." Petal said, stepping in front of them, holding her arms out. "But you still haven't gotten through me!"

"Hey." Kurou said, Petal turning to see what was wrong.

"We're moemon." Kurou said, frowning. "Our entire purpose is to do battle for our masters. Right, Mary?"

"Right." Mary said, nodding.

"But-" Petal said.

"Listen!" Kurou said angrily. "You said you wouldn't let anything happen to us because it would make our master sad, right?"

"Right…" Petal said, nodding.

"Now I'm going to say the same thing to you!" Kurou exclaimed. "If you died, master would be sad, and I'm not gonna let that happen! So you'll protect us, and we'll protect you!"

"Alright!" Petal said, nodding, slapping her hand against Kurou's. "Player swap! It's your turn!"

"Right!" Kurou shouted, running out in between Drapion and I, staring at her.

"I feel sorry for you." Kurou said, frowning. "I'm fighting for my master because I believe in him, and I love him. Whereas you're fighting because you're being controlled."

"What?" Drapion asked, laughing. "I'm not being controlled! I'm destroying you because I want to!"

"And why would you want that?" Kurou asked, frowning.

"What?" Drapion asked, surprised.

"Why would you want to destroy me?" Kurou asked simply. "There doesn't seem to be any reason for it. I can tell that you're not fighting us because you care about protecting the ship. You're just running rampant, letting your power get the better of you."

"That's right!" Mary said, nodding. "I was controlled once too! And when I was being controlled, I had no idea I was being controlled! So when we defeat you, you'll be freed!"

"I don't need to be freed." Drapion said, frowning. "Because I'm not being controlled. I'm going to defeat you!"

"Yeah, yeah!" Mary said, smiling. "Alright, Kurou, let's go! Let's take her down together!"

"No." Kurou said, holding her hand up to keep Mary back. "That's not the honorable thing to do. She's fighting by herself, so I'm gonna battle myself too!"

"But-" Mary argued.

"I already told you." Kurou said, frowning. "Just watch. I'm not gonna lose so easily."

Kurou's body began glowing, white light encompassing her body.

"What the hell?" I exclaimed, shocked.

"She's… evolving!" Petal exclaimed, surprised.

The light around Kurou faded, and she stood in her new form. She wore a black and white dress made of feathers, with large black wings sticking out of her back, and black hair down to her shoulders, with black eyes.

"I look good…" Kurou said, staring at herself, smiling. "Alright Drapion, you ready?"

"Always ready…" Drapion said, smirking. "Sludge bomb!"

"Whirlwind!" Kurou said, flying into the air, flapping her wings intensely, blowing the sludge bomb back at Drapion, the sphere shape being pushed into a small wave, melting through the metal deck of the ship as Drapion jumped back, spitting another sludge bomb at Kurou.

"Air slash!" Kurou shouted, countering the sludge bomb with a sphere of wind, which hit the sludge bomb, shattering it. At this moment, I shot a disk at Drapion, looping around her.

"Hey!" Drapion exclaimed, moving to shatter the ring, but Kurou countered with a whirlwind, lifting her up into the air.

"Hey! Stop!" Drapion exclaimed. She struggled against the wind, but it was no use. The disk continued its loops around her body, before she was finally, FINALLY purified, free of brain control.

Moemon: Drapion

Type: Poison/Dark

Poke Assist: Poison

Field Move: Crush x4

Info: Drapion are very competitive moemon, and they enjoy fighting. They spit blobs of acidic poison to attack, and forms puddles of poison. They can control the miasma they secrete.

"Alright, stand down whatever your name is!" I ordered, turning to Mr. Kincaid.

"Damn it…" Kincaid said, frowning. "This isn't over, you brats! Gliscor! Let's go!"

Kincaid typed some things into his keypad, and another moemon, a Gliscor, flew up next to him. She wore a violet shirt which revealed her stomach, which was covered with a maroon shirt, and violet shorts with a black wing cape and violet hair down to her shoulders, as well as gold eyes and fangs. She also had a long violet tail, and violet gloves with claws.

"You won't get away that easily!" I shouted, running after him.

"Think so?" Kincaid asked, pressing a button on a walkie-talkie. "Remove the Kingstone Valve!"

The valve began moving, and the ship began filling with water, as it began to shake.

"Oh no!" Petal exclaimed, feeling the boat begin to rock, and slowly began to sink.

So, how will they stop the ship from sinking?
