Disclaimer: Today I will not own Pokemon. Nor tomorrow, nor the day after, and etc.
Well, this chapter is super, super long! Its been a while since I wrote this much. I tried to make it interesting, but knowing me, its probably too dull.
Anyways enjoy the chapter. One chapter and one epilogue left!
Chapter 34:
"The temple!" Mina cried out as she looked at the building rising out of the water.
"Amazing!" Ship exclaimed, tugging his beard with excitement, "We must be the first to ever see this in a millennium!" Kai smiled and slowly steered the ship closer to the temple. "Hurry! We must protect the treasure!"
...
"Phew what a relief," Jack sighed as he got out of Phantom's submarine. He stood on top of the metal hunk of junk, looking at the saved temple. Chartot was circling over him cawing out repeated words.
"Temple! Treasure! Temple! Treasure!" Jack sighed. How come it's possible for people to listen to repeated words over and over again? Suddenly, he noticed huge shadows lurking underneath the water, moving at high speed. Jack slid down the submarine and inspected the water. The dark shadows were hard to distinguish due to the waves of the water. It wasn't until Jack's face was almost touching the water that he realized what was making those dark shadows.
"Well what do you know," Jack said, shocked, "Seems like we got company."
...
"Hiromi! Look!" Max pointed out the window. Hundreds of sea Pokemon were scurrying to the Temple of the Sea as if they were on a mission. Mantines, Wailmers, Ludvisc, Lanturn... the names goes on and on.
"Amazing!" Hiromi gasped, "I've never seen so many water Pokemon in one spot.
"LOOK!" Hiromi turned to where Max was pointing and saw a large immense dark shadow coming by. As it got closer, Hiromi could see that it was a giant blue dolphin Pokemon. The large creature, ten times the size of the small sub, spread its flippers up and down, creating large currents.
"Th-that's Kyoger! The legendary Pokemon of the Sea!" Hiromi sputtered. Kyoger's large eye zoomed in on the submarine, but ignored it as it swam past. Hiromi and Max continued to stare as Hiromi steered the submarine toward the temple, following the other Pokemon. How many more strange and rare things will happen today?
...
May hurried out of the temple. Once the water was drained away from the temple and back to its original form, May quickly unlatched the door and ran up the stairs and out to the harbor of the building. May looked up into the pink sky, the sun setting down in the horizon. Rays of sunlight sparkled on the water like diamonds. The sun cast large shadows over the water. Manaphy jumped out of May's arms and slowly wadded over to the side of the harbor.
"I knew Brendan could do it!" May exclaimed as she looked up toward the large pillars of the temple, "He's always save the day no matter what! He always help us no matter what. No matter how hard it is..." May's smile immediately however, and her head immediately bowed.
"Happy?" Manaphy questioned.
"I'm sorry," May said softly, "But Brendan... is not here... you don't think that..." Before she could say anything else, May heard a loud splash and a squeal. She whipped her head around and saw their archenemy, Phantom, on an air tank, and in Phantom's hands was a struggling Manaphy!
"Manaphy!" May cried out, "Give him back Phantom!" Manaphy struggled and tried to loosen Phantom's grip but it was too tight. Tears were rolling down the little blue Pokemon's cheek.
"Not a chance," Phantom grinned, "I may have lost today, but with Manaphy, I can always find the treasure again." With an evil pirate grin, Phantom sped off in his tiny rocket booster. Manaphy screamed out, crying out for May.
"Manaphy!" May cried, trying to grab for Phantom despite the fact that it was too late, "No!"
"Geez, do I always have to do the saving?" A voice said from behind. May turned her head around and before she could figure out whose voice it was, someone grabbed her. May found herself absorb with golden light, the same light that emitted from the temple and May found herself diving head down into the water.
"AHHHHH!" May screamed, trying to hold her breath as she went deeper and deeper into the water. She despretely tried to punch the person holding her.
"Ouch! May! Is this how you treat someone back from the dead?" May froze from mid punch. That voice! She turned around and saw the crimson red eyes looking down upon her.
"Brendan!" May gasped. "What? B-but how?" May suddenly realize that despite being underwater, she was still able to breath. It was almost as if the golden light that surrounded them like a beam of light was protecting them. "We're breathing underwater?"
"Don't look at me," Brendan shrugged, "I just go along for the ride. Not that I understand anything right now." Brendan looked around for a moment before he spotted a small shadow above them, skimming through the waves. "So now then, shall we go after Phantom?" Brendan gave a sly grin and before May could respond and closed his eyes and suddenly, both of them were moving upward and at greater speed, toward Phantom's small air tank.
"WAHHHH! Slow down!" Brendan ignored her and pushed the beam to move faster and faster, leaving a trail of golden light shimmering behind. He pushed the beam up and suddenly, both of them burst out of the water gracefully.
Phantom heard the splash and turn around. His jaws literally dropped to the ground as he saw Brendan, who was holding May with his two arms, speeding toward Phantom like a torpedo.
"Give Manaphy back you old man!" Brendan yelled. Phantom glared at Brendan and suddenly dived into the water. "You're not getting away. Come on May! On my signal grab Manaphy!"
"Okay!" May said. She trusted Brendan. They both, as a team, will get Manaphy back. Together they once again dived back into the water. Brendan and May search frantically and noticed the trail of bubbles from Phantom's small air tank. Quickly, Brendan and May pushed hard and fast through the water like a hot knife through butter.
"Come on, come on," Brendan muttered. They were getting closer, but not by a lot. They need to accelerate faster if they want to get Manaphy before Phantom disappears.
"Yaw'll never catch me," Phantom yelled, "Not in a million years." Then out of nowhere a school of Remoraid came by, encircling Phantom. He couldn't see where he was going and almost lost control, along with Manaphy. Then all of a sudden large Wailords came by, making the path harder to maneuver. Phantom was losing speed and the two kids who are chasing him are getting closer and closer. Suddenly something bumped into Phantom, he looked around annoyed until he saw the large Kyoger, staring down at him. With a slight nod of its head, it shot Phantom, Manaphy, and the air tank up out of the water and into the air.
Brendan and May flew out of the water and toward the fallen Phantom. With ease, Brendan maneuvered the light so that he and May were both right next to Phantom and Manaphy.
"MAY NOW!" Without a slight hesitation, May thrust her hand around Manaphy and pulled with all her might. Phantom growled and tried to pull back but gravity was causing him to come tumbling back to the water, making him lose his grip around the prince of the sea. Brendan, with a sheer desire for revenge, kicked Phantom right at the head.
WHAM! Phantom immediately became dazed from the attack and slack enough grip so that Manpahy was back into May's arms.
"That's for hitting my head!" Brendan yelled as Phantom landed with a huge splash into the water.
"Manaphy! Are you okay?!" May gasped, inspecting Manphy's rejoiced face.
"Love you! Happy!" Manaphy squealed with happiness.
"Phew, it's all over," Brendan sighed. Unfortunately, after he said that a large gray submarine, even larger than Hiromi's, came crashing out of the water and what do you know, Phantom was on the very top.
"This battle is far from over!" Phantom roared. All of the water Pokemon under the sea came toward Phantom's sub, ready for battle. "You idiots down there," Phantom screamed at his small microphone attached to his ear, "Start the stupid sonar and sent out the torpedoes!" In a couple of seconds, a large ear piercing frequency came crashing through the water, causing everybody's ears to hurt.
Pokemon scurried to and fro, especially when the torpedoes were shot out and exploded when they hit something.
"Oh no!" May screamed as she saw Pokemon swimming in frenzy and in pain. Manaphy looked wide eye at the chaos. Brendan gritted his teeth and dived back into the water.
"Calm down!" Brendan yelled at the water Pokemon, but none of them were listening. It was as though there was a huge traffic and nobody was listening to what was going on. Manaphy's face turned from surprise to calmness. It pushed itself out of May's grip.
"Manaphy!" May cried out, afraid that the little blue Pokemon will get lost in the school of Pokemon as well. Manaphy opened its small mouth and softly sang again, just like it did in the temple.
"Aaohhhhhh," Manaphy hummed. The tip of its blue antennas turned bright red and as it continued to swim, the light shimmered in a trail as if it was encircling all of the Pokemon. Soon, the whole ocean was silent, no more noise, no more scurrying. It was as if they were all listening to what Manaphy has to say.
"No way," Brendan whistle, "Manaphy is a like a Ranger's Capture style." May looked at the result of Manaphy's heroic deed and smiled.
Manaphy was truly acting like the Prince of the Sea.
"All right!" Brendan grinned, "Now for a counter attack!"
Wailords and other large water Pokemon swam toward the submarine and head butt the machine. This caused the submarine to wobble back and forth, and Phantom tripped and found himself hanging for his dear life. Chinchou and Lanturn swam toward the electrical generator near the bottom of the sub and all of them sent out shocks of electricity toward the machine, causing it to short-circuit and the power went down.
Phantom growled as he listened to the electrical static in his earpiece before silence fell. He climbed back up the sub when something came crashing out of the water. Phantom's mouth dropped again when he saw Kyoger jumping out of the water, aiming its face at Phantom. On top of the large legendary Pokemon, there was another legendary Pokemon, only smaller. Manaphy aimed its arm toward the submarine and gave a cry to fire. Kyoger's mouth started to absorb bright yellow energy. Then without a slight hesitation, it released the Hyper Beam attack toward the motionless submarine. Once it collided with the metal, it let out a giant explosion. It left a ringing tone. Brendan and May flew out of the water and watched the disaster from far away.
The submarine rumbled and slowly sank, leaving scraps left. Once the smoke finally cleared, Phantom appeared in the mist, trying to hold on to a large chunk of metal that was about the size and length of a tree trunk. His coat was completely ripped and torn up, revealing large machine parts that are attached to his body.
"WHAT THE?!" Jack yelled, looking through his binoculars, inspecting the submarine, "you're telling me that he was that strong because of those machines?!"
"There are two types of people in the world," Phantom growled. His legs were shaking as the machines on his leg continued to go haywire and out of control. "Those who are strong and those who are weak... And I'm definitely..." But before he could finish what he wanted to say, the large metal groaned and his arms and legs gave away, leaving Phantom crushed with his own words.
Brendan and May stood silent at the final moment of the battle. Brendan grinned and let out a whoop of happiness. "FINALLY! It's over!" He spiraled into the air before diving head down into the water. May giggled as Brendan moved to and fro with excitement. The yellow submarine came slowly toward May and Brendan.
"MAY! BRENDAN!" Max yelled from behind the window. He waved energetically at the two kids.
"You look so cute together!" Hiromi commented, giggling at the sight when Brendan realized that he had been holding May close to him this whole time. He and May turned bright red and seemed completely embarrassed.
Hiromi sighed as she looked at the joy as the Pokemon swam around.
It was finally over. And they won.
