Petunia and Feathertail continued too make up chants and songs for the group at the front deck of the ship, Feathertail had more fun than she had ever had in a while. But it wasn't all for fun, she wanted too get closer too Petunia as well, and she felt that her plan was really working.
"Ok." Feathertail panted after finishing another cheer. "We've done one for Torappu, Redmoon, Skybreeze, and Angelica."
Petunia nodded. "And it's all thanks too you that i got them done so fast, i never would have been able to think up such great lyrics in such a short amount of time."
"It was nothing." Feathertail blushed.
"No, really, i-i'm not really good at much, so I'm always glad when people lend me a hand." petunia insisted.
Her commented caught Feathertail by surprise. "You shouldn't talk about yourself like that." Feathertail advised. "You can do much more than you think if you believe."
"Then how come all i did while i was under team rocket rule was just serve drinks?" Petunia as,ed with sadness in her voice.
"Because they couldn't see how great you really were, you just have to exert yourself too be the best you can." Feathertail replied.
"Really, you think so?" Petunia asked.
"I know so." Feathertail boldly replied. "I wouldn't be were i was if i didn't exert myself."
"Well, your a strong floatzel, i'm just a lilligant who probably would get knocked over by a gust of wind." Petunia commented.
"Hey, what did i say about talking about yourself like that? That's the kind of thing that will make you believe you're weak, you just have to believe that your strong, and exert yourself to your physical and mental limit." Feathertail suggested.
Petunia didn't seem so convinced that it was that easy. Her uncomfortableness was sticking out too Feathertail. Feathertail hatched an idea.
"Say, we've been doing a lot of chanting, why don't you sit down and i'll go get us some drinks?" Feathertail suggested.
"A-alright." Petunia agreed.
Feathertail marched off, her new plan was too show that Petunia did have unique abilities, though it would take longer than a single ship cruise before she realized it. But Feathertail knew that she could get through too her eventually.
-Somewhere on the lower deck of the cruise-
"Wake up you mutt." Was the words that greeted Eon as he received a slap to the face, waking him from his nap.
Eon growled and sat up. A lopunny hovered over him. "What do you want?" Eon asked.
"Elderpunny ordered a wake up call. If I were you, i wouldn't get too comfortable." The lopunny replied, sitting down on some boxes.
Eon looked over too see that Elderpunny was having a discussion with another lopunny that had a scar on his chest, Eon had never seen this specific lopunny before.
"Are you sure about this?" Elderpunny asked.
"Quite certain." The lopunny replied. "Have I ever lied too you before?"
"I don't doubt your loyalty and truth." The Elderpunny replied. "But if this is all true, you know what we have too do."
"Say no more." The lopunny replied, holding up his paw. "Order the word, and i'll gut every mother fucker I see."
"That won't be necessary Felix." Elderpunny replied. "I already have somebody on standby."
Felix seemed angry at Elderpunny's remark. "When the hell am i not going to be on the sidelines and actually fucking do something about these situations? I can literally run in there and kill the bitch at the snap of a finger." Felix responded.
"The problem lies in the fact that while your up-front about everything, you go overkill. Know you, you would probably sink this whole Arceus damn ship with us still in it." Elderpunny explained.
"Ok, so i have my outburst. That doesn't mean i can't do my part in all of this." Felix replied.
"True, but your time isn't now." Elderpunny informed.
"Then when the fuck is my time going to be here? i'm getting tired of watching this bitch 24/7!" Felix yelled.
"Your time will come when i say so, now get back to your duties, i have my own problems to deal with." Elderpunny replied.
Felix just sighed heavily and ran off. Presumably to the upper deck. Elderpunny turned around and saw that Eon was awake and staring right at him. When their eyes met, Eon felt a cold shiver run up his spine, but simply ignored it to try and hide any fear of Elderpunny he had.
Elderpunny walked up too Eon and kneeled down in front of him.
"Time for you too do your part." Elderpunny informed.
"What if i don't want too?" Eon asked. "I know you Elderpunny, anyone who you've gotten close too you can't kill."
Elderpunny chuckled. "Perhaps." He responded. "But let's say for a moment that's true. Just because i might not be able too kill you because of our history, i can kill anyone who's gotten your history."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Eon asked. Elderpunny grinned and turned his attention to Natalie. Eon suddenly caught on too what he meant. "You leave her out of this." Eon threatened.
"You're both my prisoners, and as far as i know, you too haven't talked too each other. Why does she matter so much too you?" Elderpunny asked. Eon began too sweat, which Elderpunny noticed immediately. "Or maybe i was wrong? Maybe last night you two snuck off and had all night too yourself thinking i wouldn't notice you two were gone?" Elderpunny hypothesized.
Eon suddenly felt another cold chill rub his spine. "I don't know what you're talking about." Eon responded.
"Don't play stupid with me. I know all about you two, and while i may not kill you, nothing is stopping me from killing her. There is much more than her ears that i can take. all i have too do, is just take it." He threatened.
"She doesn't deserve punishment!" Eon exclaimed.
"No, but if you fail, she will take yours." Elderpunny explained.
Eon was breathing like mad, ready to snap and kill Elderpunny. Sadly, his restraints made it impossible. Eon sighed. "What do i have too do?" Eon asked.
"Glad too see we are at an agreement." Elderpunny commented, standing up. "I have just been informed that a new member has joined the humans team."
"You mean the human who works with the traitor?" Eon asked.
"The very same." Elderpunny informed. "Their numbers are growing, and i think it's avout time we send them a message. I want you too go on the upper deck and kill the lilligant."
"Wait, all lilligants are female. i can't do that, it goes against my ethics." Eon informed.
"It doesn't matter what you decide, either way, a female is going to die today." Elderpunny responded.
Eon gritted his teeth. "Fine." He growled.
"Glad too see you're on board." Elderpunny commented, he them snapped his fingers. "Untie him and escort him to the upper deck. And make sure no one sees him with you." Elderpunny ordered the lopunny on the box.
The lopunny followed orders and untied the lucario. Eon felt guilt swell within him as he was lead too the top, but he didn't have a choice, it was either the lilligant, or Natalie.
-Meanwhile-
"What's taking Feathertail so long?" Petunia thought as she sat on a sunbath chair. Other people were scattered around the front desk doing various activities too keep themselves occupied, but Feathertail was nowhere too be seen. Petunia began too get worried that something had happened to her.
"I hope she's ok." Petunia thought as her hands gripped her skirt tighter.
"Hey, what's that Lucario doing up there?" A man suddenly spoke up.
Petunia suddenly spin in her chair, and on top of the ship, a lucario stood staring menacingly down the crowd. Many others noticed the lucario too, it had two spikes missing, the only one left was on it's right paw. The lucario slipped one of his paws behind his back and began to build up an aura shot.
"That pokemons going to hurt itself up there." A man chimed in.
"Who owns it?" A woman asked.
"Maybe it got lost from it's owner." A child suggested.
Petunia felt uncomfortable, something didn't seem right.
Eon scanned the front deck of the ship, when finally he noticed a green lilligant sitting by herself.
Eon sighed, he would regret his next actions. Eon suddenly jumped from the top of the ship, causing most of the crowd to gasp in shock, most thought the lucario was committing Suicide. The lucario had a bright light enveloping his fist as he launched down like a rocket. Suddenly seeing the lucario coming right for her, Petunia pushed herself away from the chair. Eon landed right down on the chair where Petunia was and caused an explosion that launched Petunia too the far end of the front deck, and caused the crowd too panic.
While the crowd ran off, Petunia coughed as the aftermath of the explosion left a lot of dust in the air. When her vision cleared up, she could see a foggy figure in the dust cloud, when a small gust blew over, a lucario was kneeled down right where she had been sitting. He had punched a hole straight though the deck, and the sunbath chair she had been sitting in was bent into the hole in a u-formation.
Eon removed his fist from the hole and stood up, facing Petunia.
"W-what are you doing? Y-you nearly hit me." Petunia shakily asked.
"That was the intention." Eon replied. "It's best you stay where you are if you want too make this quick."
"M-make what q-quick?" Petunia asked. Eon didn't reply. Instead, his fist began to glow a light blue, and he started too walk toward her. "Stay away from me!"
"I have too do this." Eon informed, getting closer to her.
Petunia's mind told her to run, but her body was frozen. She felt her nerves tug at her, but her joints were all locked in fear. The lucario cloased the distance between them, where at this point Petunia curled into a ball and started crying.
"I apologize, but i have to save my friend." Eon informed as he raised his fist.
Eon suddenly felt an ice shard split right through his shoulder, making him lose concentration of his aura. Eon quickly grabbed the ice shard and pulled it out of his shoulder. Turning around, a floatzel stared at Eon, looking rather pissed.
"Nobody touches her." Feathertail warned.
"This has nothing too do with you, turn around now or i'll have too kill both of you." Eon warned back.
Feathertail cracked her knuckles. "If you even dare try anything, I will break every bone in your body like toothpick."
Eon growled. "I'm giving you the chance too live here." He informed.
"That's my friend you're trying too hurt. and anybody who tries too hurt my friends, will find themselves going to a pokecenter in pieces." Feathertail responded.
Eon sighed. "It's against my ethics to kill a female, let alone two. but i can't let my friend die just because a measly little weasel told me to go away. If you want too protect your friend so bad you're willing to die for her, then prepare too give me your best shot."
"Trust me." Feathertail replied. "To beat you, i won't even have too use half of my best shot."
Eon charged at Feathertail, with his fist ready too attack. Feathertail tried too dodge but was met with a fury of fist barrages. With one final punch. Feathertail was launched straight onto the railing, which was luckily still sturdy.
"Feathertail!" Petunia called out.
Feathertail coughed, she had been hit with close combat before, but it wasn't that powerful.
"Make no mistake floatzel." Eon spoke up. "I'm not here too play, i don't give warning shots. Every move i use is fatal. You're lucky that one didn't kill you."
Feathertail stood up. "I've had stronger hits from a magikarp." She insulted.
Eon growled. "You're pushing it." He warned.
Feathertail charged up an ice beam and quickly fired it at Eon. Caught off guard, Eon's hip was sliced by the barrage of ice shards.
"You're not the only one with lethal attacks." Feathertail informed.
Eon gripped his hip, he may have been caught off guard, but the attack wasn't very effective. He was lightly bleeding from effects. Eon shook his head. "Looks like i don't have a choice." He thought.
Eon decided to use brick break to put the floatzel put of her misery, she obviously wasn't going to last another hit from any of his moves, but this one should be the least painless of his aim was good enough. Eon charged with his palm in the air. Right as he struck, he hit something yellow and large. When he looked up, a dragonite looked down at him angrily. Without warning, a fist was slammed into his chest, pushing him back a decent length,
Able too keep on his feet, the lucario quickly recovered.
"What's your problem?" Skybreeze asked.
"Stay away from him!" Petunia shouted.
Skybreeze looked confused at Petunia, not realizing the nature of the situation. Suddenly he felt his arm wrapped in two paws. He was suddenly lifted and slammed face first into the ship. Dazed from the attack, Skybreeze felt something land on his back. Eon raised his foot right over Skybreeze's head. Eon then repeatedly slammed his foot down, shoving Skybreeze's face deeper into the ship.
Skybreeze eventually used his wings and flung the lucario off of him. but his landing wasn't very clean as he was still dazed from his attack. Skybreeze wobbled as he tried to regain focus.
A fist suddenly jammed into skybreeze's stomach and he felt himself be thrown in the air.
Eon had uppercutted Skybreeze into the air, using his powerful legs, he jumped up and threw another fist straight onto Skybreeze's spine. Gripping the dragonite, Eon pulled himself above Skybreeze. Arming himself with an ice punch, Eon slammed his fist onto the Skybreeze's face, bringing them both down hard onto the deck of the ship.
Skybreeze's body cushioned the landing for Eon. Just as he was about to deliver a final blow, something powerful hit him in the back of the head, throwing him off his feet.
When he picked himself up, he saw an Elektross, mawile, lopunny, yamask, and a human, ready too fight to defend their friends.
"Damn it!" Eon thought, "i spent so much time fighting the other two that I didn't have time too take out the lilligant."
"You!" Ty shouted. "You're the one who killed Sarah!"
Eon decided he had to retreat. "I'm sorry, but i think it's time to take my leave." Eon responded. Aiming his fist at the ground, it quickly grew a bright blue, when he slammed it on the deck, it caused another explosion, picking up a lot of dust.
"You're not escaping again!" Angelica yelled, charging into the dust storm.
Angelica pushed her way through a thick cloud of smoke. she couldn't find a single hair of the lucario any where. When the dust cleared away, she realized that the lucario had already made his escape. "Damn it!" Angelica yelled.
"Angelica." Ty spoke up, putting his hand on her shoulder. "As much as i want too hunt him down too, we need too get help for Skybreeze and Feathertail."
Petunia quickly rushed over to Feathertail, who was barely conscious.
"Feathertail, stay with me!" She begged.
"I-i'm fine Petunia." Feathertail weakly replied.
"What happened?" Torappu asked as she rushed over too them.
"Feathertail tried to fight that lucario, but she got beat up." Petunia explained.
"I don't think Feathertail is the one we should be worried about." Redmoon informed.
"What do you mean?" Torappu asked.
"His shell is breaking." Redmoon replied.
"What does that mean?" Torappu asked.
"When a being's shell breaks, the soul is set free." Redmoon explained.
"You mean-"
"Skybreeze is dying."
