Chapter 36
For Dawn
When we last left off Ash had just crashed a wedding. More on that after we see what happens to the stolen Pokemon.
Dan got to the lab and headed to the computer - he found a disk and downloaded all the information of the Pokemon and the trainers that they belonged to. Afterwards, he found a big bag and started gathering all the Pokemon from the shelves. He found his and Blue's and kept them separately with him. Before he could leave he was stopped at the door by another hooded trainer.
Dan: Out of my way!
The trainer refused.
?: Go Emboar!
Emboar: EMBOAR!
Emboar smashed it's fist together ready to fight.
Dan: Hmmm... Then let's battle. GO RHYDON!
Rhydon: ROARR!
The trainer removed his hood and cloak and Dan was shocked to see who it was.
Dan: NATE?! WHA?
Nate: Emboar! Use Hammer Arm!
Dan: Block it with Hammer Arm Rhydon!
SMASH!
Both arms collided like two war hammers in the heat of battle.
Dan: Rhydon! Use Crunch!
Nate: Dodge and use Stone Edge!
Sharp stones flew Rhydon's way.
Dan: SMASH THROUGH RHYDON!
Nate: Flamethrower!
Flamethrower hit Rhydon causing a burn.
Rhydon: RHY!
Dan: Rhydon! Come on Rhydon get up.
Rhydon managed to get to it's feet.
Nate: GIGA IMPACT NOW EMBOAR!
Dan: USE DRAGON RUSH RHYDON!
Both Pokemon charged head first at each other causing a massive collision and shaking the whole room. The force of the collision was closer to Nate which sent him flying into the wall and knocking him out while causing the whole room to start collapsing. Dan returned Rhydon then dragged Nate out of the lab with Emboar's help.
Dan: Whew...
Dan went to find the Captain who was being guarded by two guards.
Dan: LUCARIO! EXTREAMSPEED!
Lucario knocked the guards out and Dan had his Machamp carry the Captain and the bag of Pokemon outside where they met up with Blue.
Blue: Alright! You got them! Nate?!
Dan: Yeah, here's your Pokemon. Nate was working for Dominick.
Blue: Actually, Red's here too.
Dan: WHAT?!
Blue: I think Dominick's been brainwashing people somehow and maybe even Dawn. The only question is how?
Dan: Let's meet up with Ash. But first call PTU and tell them where we are. There's a phone at the main hall.
Dan: Lucario let's go.
Dan hurried up the stairs to the ballroom when he and Lucario got there Ash had already crashed the party. Blue called PTU and the Sinnoh police. Afterwards, he and Machamp went to meet up with Ash. The Captain (who was now fine and able to walk) waited with the bag of Pokeballs for the Sinnoh police along with Nate and Red as well.
Meanwhile.
In the ballroom
Ash: This wedding is OVER!
Dominick: How DARE you intrude on the best day of my life! And waste all of our time!
All the guests were staring at Ash.
Ash: I don't care about your guests - I want Dawn back.
Dominick: Well you can't have her! She's mine and as soon as you leave - she and I will be forever together in marriage.
Ash: SAVE IT! DAWN'S COMING WITH ME!
Ash walked over to Dawn and grabbed her hand - for a second Dawn had a flash back to when she and Ash were laughing and dancing happily and without a care in the world.
Dawn: Let go of me!
Dawn yanked her hand out of Ash's as Dominick pulled her back from Ash.
Dominick: Enough! GUARDS REMOVE HIM FROM MY SIGHT!
Ash: DAWN DON'T YOU REMEMBER ME? ASH KETCHUM FROM PALLET TOWN!?
Once Ash said who he was and where he was from another flashback of when Dawn first met Ash in the Sinnoh Region appeared in her mind.
Dawn: Argh... my head
Dominick: Dawn what's wrong my dear?
Dawn: My head is starting to hurt.
As the guards dragged Ash towards the exit he shouted...
Ash: DON'T YOU REMEMBER ALAMOS TOWN AND THE MUSIC TOWER!?
Another flashback of when Ash grabbed Dawn's hand right before she fell off the tower appeared and this time it was clearer.
Ash: (Struggling to break free) Grrr... DAWNNNNNNNNNN!
PIIIKKKAAA!
Pikachu hit one of the guards that was dragging Ash out with a Thunderbolt instantly knocking him out. The other guard was hit by a Bubble Beam from Piplup. Seeing Pikachu and Piplup teaming up sent even more flashbacks through Dawn's mind - suddenly Dawn fainted.
Dominick: Dawn, DAWN! Oh no, she fainted!
Ash: DAWN!
Dominick: THAT'S IT!
Just as Dominick was getting ready to lose it Dan and then Blue ran into the room.
Dominick: I'LL MAKE YOU LEAVE MYSELF - ALL 3 OF YOU! But first, I CHALLANGE YOU ASH KETCHUM TO A BATTLE!
Ash: BRING IT ON!
Dominick: YOU TWO STAY OUT OF THIS!
Blue: We got your back Ash
Dan: Right.
Ash: This battle's mine - FOR DAWN!
Dominick set Dawn down in a chair near the altar and everyone cleared while Ash's friends were on the sidelines watching.
Dominick: 6 Pokemon each! I start.
GO ELECTROSS!
Ash: I CHOOSE YOU GIBLE!
Dominick: Electross! Ice Punch.
Ash: Gible! Dodge!
Gible Dodges Ice Punch.
Dominick: SEND A BARRAGE OF ICE PUNCHES!
Gible Dodged the Ice Punch barrages but was getting tired.
Blue: Ash switch to offensive before Gible gets too tired!
Ash: GIBLE! USE DIG!
Gible dug underground.
Ash's Thoughts: Why is Dominick so calm? Dig is a ground type move that is sure to do alot to Electross.
Gible busted out of the ground only to miss Electross.
Ash: WHAT?
Dan: Electross has the ability Levitate - ground moves do NOTHING!
Dominick: ICE PUNCH ELECTROSS!
Electross used Ice Punch instantly freezing Gible solid.
Ash: GIBLE!
Dominick: This is going to be over quick.
Electross! Finish it with another Ice Punch!
Another Ice Punch sent the frozen Gible flying into the air. When the frozen Gible landed the ice shattered hurting Gible real bad.
Ash: Gible are you...
Before Ash could finish Gible got back up to it's feet even though it was nearly all out of energy. Ash saw Gible's braveness and knew...
Ash: YOU CAN DO IT GIBLE!
Gible: Gib gib GIBLLLLLLLEEEEEE!
All of a sudden Gible started to glow.
Ash: !
Blue: GIBLE'S EVOLVING!
Gible finished evolving and was now a GABITE!
Ash: AWESOME! A GABITE!
Dominick: Nonetheless, you're still going to fall in defeat.
ELECTROSS! ICE PUNCH!
Dan: Ash! Try Duel Chop!
Ash: Great! Gible! Uh... I mean Gabite! Use Duel Chop!
Gabite: GABITE!
Gabite used it's right hand to stop the Ice Punch then it's left to hit Electross then used both hands to hit Electross.
Ash: Again!
Duel Chop hit Electross again instantly knocking it out.
Dominick: Grrr... Worthless Pokemon! I choose Gengar!
Ash: Gabite! Return!
GO QUILAVA!
Qulilava: QUILAVA!
Dominick: Gengar! Sludge Bomb!
Ash: Qulilava! Use Flamethrower!
The fire hit the sludge causing an instant explosion.
Meanwhile, watching the battle just outside the window was none other then Team Rocket.
Jessie: An aspiring actress like me should not have to be in these harsh elements. How did we get on this island?
James: Don't look at me?
It was Meowth's idea to follow the twerps onto that ferry and then to that dinky old boat where we ended up shipwrecked!
Meowth: Cram it bub! It was yous 2s fault for dragging Meowth into all this!
Jessie: How dare you blame me you furball!
Meanwhile...back at the other battle...
Dominick: Gengar use Sludge Bomb again!
Ash: Dodge Quilava!
When Quilava dodged Sludge Bomb, it was right in front of the window and so it went straight through the window shattering it.
Ash: Flamethrower!
Gengar quickly dodged the attack.
Dominick: NOW USE SHADOW BALL!
A shadowy blob hit Quliava doing massive damage.
Ash: Oh no! Quilava!
Dominick: Use Night Shade!
Quilava was sent flying and was in bad shape.
Ash: QUILAVA! Return.
Qulilava: (Quilava refused) QUI. QUI.
Ash: Quilava, Get back in your ball!
Qulilava: QUILAVA, QUI, QUI, QUILAVA!
Meanwhile, Jessie, James, and Meowth had finished fighting and continued watching the battle through the window.
Jessie: Look! It's those twerps!
Meowth: AND PIKACHU!
Jessie: Wait a minute! What's the twerps' Quilava saying?
James: Translation Meowth.
Meowth's ears noisily listened to Quilava, as he listens he starting to cry.
Meowth: mm...(sniff)... Quilava's telling the twerp it won't go back to it's ball until it beats Gengar and that it will never give up.
Jessie: Why?
Meowth: Because it wants to see him happy and together with the blue haired twerp - and if fighting and going through the jerk in the suit is what it takes to see his trainer happy he'll do it. ...sob
James: AH WAH! THAT'S SO BEAUTIFUL! SOB...SOB
Jessie: That kinda thing just pulls at your heart strings... WAH! WAH!
Meanwhile...
Dominick: MEAN LOOK!
Blue: Uh...oh!
Ash tried to return Quilava but thanks to the move Mean Look Quilava was trapped on the field.
Ash: What's going on?!
Dan: Mean Look prevents switching. Either Quilava beats Gengar or loses.
Ash: QUILAVA!
Quilava was hit by another Night Shade!
Ash: QUILAVA!
STOP IT DOMINICK!
Dominick: NO! You interfered with my wedding and now I will make you pay Ash Ketchum!
Gengar! Night Shade again!
Ash: QUILAVA! COUNTER WITH FLAMETHROWER!
Quilava barely managed to block the Night Shade with Flamethrower.
Ash: Flamethrower again!
Flamethrower missed Gengar.
Ash: ONE MORE TIME.
But Quilava hand no more Flamethrower left and was exhausted.
Dominick: Finish this Gengar with a Shadow Ball!
Gengar walked over to Quilava and readied a Shadow Ball.
Ash: QUILAVAAAAAA!
Quilava heard the sound of Ash's voice then the flames on it instantly erupted pushing Gengar back Quilava stood up with a glow of orange.
Dan: That's Blaze!
Blue: Wait a minute! LOOK!
Quilava started to glow even brighter.
Dan: It's EVOLVING!
Dominick: HOW'S THIS POSSIBLE!?
Dan: When some Pokemon are under serious attack or upset their survival instincts can trigger an evolve provided they can evolve! Quilava's now a...
Ash: TYPLOSION!
Typlosion: GRAAAAARRRRR!
Typlosion sent out a Fire Blast just missing Gengar.
Ash: Alright! It knows Fire Blast! Fire Blast Typlosion!
Typlosion sent a second blast of fire towards Gengar but it missed!
Ash: That Gengar is fast!
Dan: Try Solarbeam!
Ash: ?!
Dan: It will work!
Ash then looked and noticed that the sun was setting - filling the room with sunlight - which gave him an idea.
Ash: Fire Blast one more time!
It missed.
Jessie: (Watching with her binoculars) Hmm... What's the twerp doing?
James and Meowth scrambling to watch.
James and Meowth: Let meh see! Let meh see! Move outta the way.
Ash: SOLARBEAM!
Typlosion released Solarbeam as soon as Gengar reappeared hitting it and instantly knocking it out.
Dominick: Grrrr...
Dan: Not bad. Ash knew that once Gengar reappeared from dodging the Fire Blast the light of the sun would instantly charge Solarbeam and by the time Gengar reappeared it was blasted by light.
Blue: The Fire Blast was only a distraction
Dominick: GO HYDREIGON!
Dominick then picked up Dawn and jumped on Hydreigon's back.
James: Oh! That's called cheating where I come from!
Meowth: Yeah! Make sure to write that move down? (Picking up a notepad) Hm... now that's... when in a pinch, jump on flying Pokemon's back to skedaddle out of the battle...
James: Mm...hum.. and make sure the Pokemon can carry three comfortably.
Jessie: (Grabbing the notepad and smacking Meowth and James with it) WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU TWO! CAN'T YOU SEE TRUE LOVE IS BEING HI-JACKED!?
Dominick: Use Dragon Pulse to shatter the window!
Hydreigon shattered the window with Dragon Pulse and in the process sent Team Rocket flying.
Team Rocket: LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET'S BLASTING OFF AGAIN! Twing.
Dominick flew off with Dawn.
Dan: Ash he's getting away!
Ash: Your not getting away with Dawn! Return Typlosion!
GO CHARIZARD!
Charizard: ROAR!
Ash hopped on Charizard's back.
Ash: Come on Pikachu and Piplup let's go!
Pikachu and Piplup jumped on Ash's shoulders.
Ash: LET'S GO CHARIZARD!
Charizard flew out the window after Dominick. Meanwhile, some of the guards sent out their flying Pokemon to chase after Ash.
Blue: Dan look!
Dan: Looks like Ash gots company - two Skarmory.
Blue: Let's give him a hand! AERODACTYLE I CHOOSE YOU!
Dan: Finally some action. GO SALAMENCE!
Dan and Blue boarded their flying Pokemon and went after the other guards.
Dominick landed on a yacht a few miles off shore from the island. On board was a machine with an Alakazam in it. Someone in a lab coat came out to talk to Dominick.
Dominick: There was a little problem with your invention.
?: Really what was the problem?
Dominick: The girl fainted.
The guy in the lab coat looked at Dawn for a minute.
?: It seems the brainwashing machine's waves were interfered with some how and the result is she passed out - what happened?
Dominick: Some old friend of hers kept blabbing on about past memories to her while he was being dragged out of my sight.
?: I see, all the reminders of those memories must have shook her up and interfered with the brainwashing that Alakazam just did. I can fix it to the point where she will remember nothing of her past and only see her present and future.
Dominick: Do that - I'm paying you alot of money to erase her memories - it better be worth it.
?: I'll need some time.
Dominick: They're on their way here now!
?: I need time to enhance the machines amplification strength so that the brainwashing is a bit...
Dominick: A bit what?
?: A bit more permanent. So I will need you to stall.
Dominick: Fine, you do your job and I'll do mine.
Dominick set Dawn down on a chair and then flew off to stall Ash.
The scientist started to re-program the machine. Once the re programming was done a helmet would be placed on Dawn's head and her memories would instantly be erased forever forgetting Ash and all the times they shared and making this story void.
And so Dominick's evil plot to permanently brainwash Dawn has only been put on hold. Will Ash defeat Dominick in time and find Dawn to rescue her before she is brainwashed permanently?
Stay tuned for the answer.
