Author's Note: Heyo guys, Timber910 here. I'm finally back on track now, with chapter 49. One more chapter and we've reached the 50 chapter mark. I'm really excited, I don't know if that's gonna be the halfway mark or not though. Maybe it will be, maybe it won't. Anywho, let's move on from our little celebration and get into the reviews.

SurferTikki: Life gets ahead of me at times, but I did notice that not much really happened.

Numbershooter: Well then, you sir, have failed me. XP V-Day stands for Victory Day. It was the name of the day that America defeated Nazi Germany, ending half of their WW2 experience (still had to fight Japan).

Supersaber: I just like leaving it off with a cliffhanger, keeps people coming back for more. :P

F14M3RZ: DING DING DING! WE GOT A WINNER! What do you win?! ILLEGAL FIREWORKS! XD Also, tell me what questions you think have gone unanswered, and Tim and Daisy never really had a real relationship, never even planned on them being together, even before Emily and them came along.

Darkhammer: Much like Numbershooter, you sir, have failed me. XP

kyled91doc: *Music* RUN 5 THOUSAND MILES, AND I'D WALK 500 MORE! XD

NextlevelBatman: Yeah, Man of Steel. It was the speech Zod gave to Superman/Kal-El after they destroyed the World Engine.

Alright, now with that out of the way, let's move into the chapter. ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE!


Chapter 49: Stryker Position

It had been a few hours since we arrived at One Island and Harry was sent into surgery. We all sat in the waiting room of the Moémon Center, waiting to hear what happened. After around 3 hours passed, a doctor came out to see us.

"Are you here with Lieutenant Stryker" asked the doctor to us. We all stood up to hear the news from the doctor.

"Yes, we are" I said. The doctor nodded.

"He's going to live…fortunately the bullet didn't hit any vital organs…however…he won't be able to walk" said the doctor. We all looked at him with shock on our faces.

"The bullet hit his spine, damaging it pretty badly…he will be paralyzed from the waist down...we strongly recommend he leave the SWAT force and retire" said the doctor. The soldiers nodded at the doctor's orders.

"I wish you all the best of luck" said the doctor, leaving us. We made our way into the infirmary room, seeing Harry laying there with one of the little blankets over most of his body, ending under his armpits. Harry turned to look at us, smiling.

"'Bout time you came" said Harry.

"We were waiting till the doctor came with the news" said Ryan. Harry nodded a bit, looking down.

"I want to say it's been an honor working with all of you. I wish all of you the best of luck…Ryan, you are now in-charge, lead this group to victory" said Harry. Ryan nodded at Harry's request. Harry then saluted the soldiers, the soldiers returning the favor. The 4 soldiers then left, as we walked over to Harry.

"How you feeling bro" Tristen asked him.

"Feel like shit…but maybe it's for the best…did we win" asked Harry, turning to us.

"Yes, atleast I believe so. Eusine is dead and the whole island is now at the bottom of the ocean. The only survivor we believe is Silver, and that's because he flew away on his Zapdos" I said. Harry nodded, looking down again.

"Good, I hope they won't cause any more trouble for you 4. So, what are your plans once you leave here" asked Harry.

"We are gonna go to Seafoam Island and get the Glacial Emblem Shard, after that head back to Cinnabar so Tristen and Emily can get the Emblem Shard, then move onto Viridian, and finally make our way to Victory Outpost for the final Emblem Shard" I said. Harry nodded as he looked up at us.

"Well, as I did with my former unit, I wish you the best of luck in your journey. Thank you for saving my life Westleaf" said Harry.

"No Harry, thank you for being there. Without Ryan, we would've still been in those cages" I said. Harry smiled, saluting us. We returned the favor, saluting him. We then turned and made our way out of the Moémon Center, getting onto a boat at the harbor and leaving for Seafoam Island. We all looked at the ground during the first few minutes of the ride, not really saying anything. After about 5 minutes of awkward silence, Tristen finally spoke up.

"So…I guess it's all over…no more Rocket" said Tristen.

"I wouldn't say that…Silver managed to escape and who knows how many more Rocket grunts escaped the base…hopefully though, we won't see much of them for the rest of this journey" I said.

"Well, maybe we can finally get through this journey without being shot at anymore" said Emily. I laughed a bit, looking up at her.

"You got to admit, it beats any normal journey" I said. Emily smiled a bit at me, nodding.

"Yeah, you're right" said Emily. We all talked for the 2 hour ride back to Seafoam Island. After the ride, we thanked the driver and made our way to the Moémon Center. We all got our rooms and decided to call it a day. I expected a nice, peaceful sleep…how wrong I was. Once I closed my eyes, I saw the destruction. I looked around, turning to find my dream self staring at me.

"It's been awhile" said my dream self.

"What's going on? Who are you and what do you want with me" I asked myself…never thought I'd ask myself who I was.

"I am you…the you that you were meant to be. You were supposed to be me…but then you met them" said my dream self.

"Met who" I asked him.

"Your group…you were never to meet them…Tristen, Emily, Ender, Jack, Rachel, Stark, Harry, they were never meant to be here…and now that they are, the world is out of balance. You must suffer the consequences of this action" said my dream self.

"And what does that mean" I asked. He then turned, following me to turn in the direction he was facing. I saw everyone getting attacked, beaten. I couldn't do anything put watch in horror.

"I am going to bring this world back into order…a world without them" said my dream self. My dream self then turned to me, staring at me with his one good eye.

"And then the world will be right" said my dream self. I turned to him, looking in horror.

"I won't let that happen" I said. My dream self then smiled.

"And how are you going to stop yourself" he asked me. I then suddenly woke up, sweat dripping from my body. I looked around, noticing I was alone in the room. I ran my hands through my hair, thinking about what my dream self had said.

*POV Change – 3rd Person – Mystery Girl*

The mysterious girl in pink teleported into a large, metal room with a cage in the middle, however the metal bars of the cage were replaced with plasma beams.

"What do you want" asked the woman in the cage. She had flowing white hair, standing at 5'10. She had red eyes and wore a red scarf around her neck. She also wore a black blouse and black short-skirt. She had DD breasts as well. The girl smiled, walking up to the cage.

"I know you are the one who is haunting him…the one making him have those dreams" said the girl.

"You know damn well that he needs it. You know I'm right…those people, they were never meant to be a part of his life" said the woman.

"So you are going to make him go through the pain and agony he suffered before" asked the girl.

"For the greater good, then yes" said the woman.

"You're wrong, they are a part of his life now, and he is happy…you know if they were gone, he would be hurting" said the girl.

"Do I look like I give a damn Mew" asked the woman.

"…This was why you were put here Darkrai, you know that" said Mew. Darkrai spat at Mew, however it got vaporized by the plasma bars.

"I know you were the one who told them to put me here…and you will pay the price. I know you watch over Westleaf…you protect him like a guardian angel…well it's time you were the one who felt helpless" said Darkrai.

"And how are you going to do that" asked Mew a bit sarcastically. Darkrai smirked, staring Mew down.

"Because he is the one who is going to destroy them. You think he is safe? I will find him…I WILL find him…I WILL FIND HIM!" said Darkrai. Mew's eyes opened wide in horror, turning and teleporting away. Darkrai smiled evilly, laughing as Mew left the room.

"Fee…Fiy…Fo…Fum…The monster of the west…shall finally come" said Darkrai, laughing after finishing the rhyme.
