Chapter 55: The Beginning of the End

"What's going on?" Ash and the others are back at Sario Town, they see that Team Solar has Adam while Team Lunar has Delia, and Professor Pinewood is surrounded by them.

"Ash? Guys?" Delia gasps.

"Commanders, they have arrived." A Lunar grunt says.

Then the four commanders and two leaders are standing there as Gloria says, "About time, we've been waiting for you!"

"Grr...how are we going to fight them all? There's too many of them, but wait, why are they working together?" Rodney asks.

Marcus says, "Well, neither teams have the full set of stones, so neither team can realize their goal..."

"So just this is the last time we're working together, only to release the Legendary Pokemon out of their prison, then, we will let them fight and that will prove who is the strongest team." Gloria says.

"Both teams have a stone each and you there...you have the Core Stone, the Wind Stone, and the Sea Stone, and we need it, so hand them over now!"

"No, Ash, don't do it!" Red yells.

"Hey, keep it quiet or else!" Scarlett yells.

"Ash, we can't do this, if they release the Legendary Pokemon, they'll wreak havoc on the region, there will be so much destruction!" Keira says.

"How about this? If you hand over the three stones, one for each of your precious Professor and your parents, they won't get hurt!" Starla says.

Delia says, "We'll be okay! Don't give it to them!"

"Mom..." Ash says.

"Say one more word..."

Derek says, "So please, hand over the three stones so we can get this underway..."

"Ash...I...I don't think we have a choice...If we don't, the Professor and your parents will get hurt, but if we do...what should we do?" Alice asks.

"You really don't have a choice!" Derek says.

"Now, place the stones on the pillars so the gate will open!" Derek yells.

"The Earth Stone is on." Scarlett says.

"The Volt Stone, we are so close." Brite says.

Ash looks at his parents, seemingly like he is communicating to them, and they nod as Ash walks the places, "Ash? What are you doing?" Keira asks.

Ash puts the Wind Stone on the pillar and then Marcus says, "The Wind Stone, just two more to go!"

"Ash? Don't do it!" Rodney yells, but he is on deaf ears. Ash puts the Sea Stone on top of it. "The Sea Stone, now it's time for the last, boy!" Gloria says.

"Please stop, Ash!" Ash flinches as this time Alice is talking, but he only says, "Please understand." Then he puts the Core Stone on top of it.

"Now with the power of the Elemental Stones, the gate will open!" Starla says.

Then the ground is shaking and then the gate through the dimension opens up. Two Pokemon come out of the portal, one is silver with a red body and the other one is silver with a blue body.

"With the power of the Moon Crystal, Lunaro you are under my control!" Derek says.

"And the power of the Sun Crystal, Solaran you will obey my order!" Starla says.

"Lunaro, fight with Solaran, prove you are the strongest, prove that Team Lunar is the superior Team!"

"Solaran, show your power and beat Lunaro, Team Solar's power will be unbeatable!" Starla says.

The two Pokemon then obey them as they start to clash at each other, and the shock wave destroys the buildings and the trees nearby.

"What power..." Alice says. Then they see that the sky is blinking black and blue, the sun and the moon look like they are fighting as well.

"Professor, what's is happening?" Keira asks.

"Their fighting is disrupting the day cycle of the world, Solaran's power over light and Lunaro's power over darkness are clashing with each other, they match in strength and power!"

Delia says, "The battle will not have a winner, everyone will lose...both teams...both Pokemon...all of us!"

"We can't let that happen!" Rodney says.

Just then, the grunts are attacked as they turn to them, but before they can send out their Pokemon, they are blasted by the attack. "Who dares to attack us?" Brite yells.

"We do." Then they see that all the Gym Leaders, Elite 4, Elena, Gina, Mark, Insey, Alex, Beacon, and Reisa arrive, Rex says, "But we are late..."

"You guys?" Ash gasps.

"We will fight! We will stop them! If we don't, the region will be destroyed and after that, the whole world!" Elena says.

"We can't let that happen!" Donna says.

Then the two leaders see that Amber and Damon are in the group, Derek says, "What a surprise, Damon, you are joining their side huh?"

Starla says, "I should have expected more of you, Amber."

Amber says, "I haven't known everything you did to ruin this planet, which is why I am going to stop you."

Damon says, "The same here."

Delia, Adam, and Professor Pinewood are freed and Delia yells, "Now! Ash!"

Ash says, "The Balance Crystal!" He takes it out and says, "This crystal can be used to summon a Legendary Pokemon known as Cellance, a Pokemon who has the power to soothe, to calm anything. I will summon it to stop the two Legendary Pokemon from fighting each other."

He raises the Crystal and yells, "Cellance, please hear me, we need your help, we need your power, without you, the region will be destroyed, please, help us!"

The Crystal shines and then a Pokemon jumps out of the portal, and it is pink with a white mane. Bailey says, "Is that...Cellance?"

"It is, it is going to help us!" A person who seems to be the Fairy Type Elite 4 says.

Alice rushes up to Ash and asks, "So this is your plan, all along?"

"We aren't done yet, the Prince of Sun and the Princess of Moon will save the world with Balance. Alice, it is time we help him soothe the two Legendaries."

Alice nods as they see that Cellance is being sent flying to the ground by Solaran's Solar Flare and Lunaro's Lunatic Wave. Ash and Alice then show their hands and they say, "Aura is with me!"

Then they start to heal Cellance, who gets back up and then uses the move Balance Seal, a move that manages to stop the attack from going, but the two Pokemon have still yet to calm down.

"Is it working?" Insey asks.

"It...It doesn't look like it is...What's going on?" Rocko asks.

Red says, "The Crystals! The Sun and Moon Crystal are controlling them, they have no free will, we need to get those crystals away from the team leaders!"

Delia says, "Guys, take cover for us, we will get the crystals."

"Hey, don't think about it!" Marcus says.

"You can't do anything to stop us." Gloria says.

"Oh, we can. Because we won't lose." Rex says as the group all send out their Pokemon.

Starla says, "Team Solar will rule the world in our order, there is no room in our world for the weak, if you want to get this crystal, you will have to get through us!"

Starla sends out a Psystric, Blitzboom, Billaze, Atomotrix, and Scorpinova, Brite sends out Legenix, Volcadon, and Explonade while Gloria sends out Pupryo, Deeferno, and Cobolta

Red, Dona, Electra, Amber, Reisa, Alex, Mark, Rocco, Rex, Beacon, and Rodney are the ones who go stop Team Solar, as they battle their Pokemon with Charizard, Fevesta, Rushot, Magrizzly, Nawhale, Hypnosmog, Roobeop, Golossus, Aerogon, Blimpoon, and Salaslam. Both Billaze and Salaslam Mega Evolve as they battle one another.

Derek says, "Do you really think you can get in our way now!? HAHAHA! It's over for you, this world is in our control!"

He sends out Swampheap, Rottoween, Lisquid, Elestomp, and Trollger, Marcus sends out Specstone and Countula while Scarlett sends out Phansheet, Banscream, and Taraterror.

Delia, Damon, Dustin, Bailey, Wade, Elena, Gina, Nora, Fayette, Insey, and Keira are the ones who go stop Team Lunar, they send out Mimey, Werehide, Monstune, Kongrilla, Tidude, Mystablet, Syphoon, Bullson, Lavenrina, Dracofly and Mountree. Elestomp and Mountree are the ones who Mega Evolve.

Ash and Alice are giving their powers to Cellance as Alice says, "Ash...I can't hold on..."

"Just stay strong...the others are working hard for us, we can't let them down! If we stop now, the world will end, we won't have a future that we should have together!"

Alice hears the words and she says, "You're right, our future, we can't give up until it is over!"

Then they share more power with Cellance as it starts to use its attacks again. Back with the Team Solar and Team Lunar, they are defeated as Starla is angry, "ARGH! You little..."

"How can you cause so much trouble!" Derek is also furious.

"Now!" Red and Delia quickly get the crystal and then run. "HEY, GET BACK HERE!" Starla yells.

"HOW DARE YOU!" Derek yells as well.

"Ash! Alice! Catch!" Delia and Red throw the crystals at them, Ash and Alice stop their aura giving and get the crystals. But without their power, Cellance is also thrown back to the ground. Ash reaches the Sun Crystal and says, "Solaran! As the Prince of the Sun! I command you to stop this mess and bring back the order!" Alice does the same and yells, "As the Princess of the Moon! I command you as well to stop this mess and bring away the chaos!"

Both Legendary Pokemon are struggling as the crystals are shinning, Ash and Alice yell, "And Cellance! Please, now, soothe them with your light! Balance Seal!"

As Cellance gets back together, it calms down the two Pokemon and they start to return to normal.

"No! Lunaro!" Derek yells. "Wake up and defeat Solaran! Show the world your power!"

"Solaran! You are not weak! Wake up!"

Then appear from Ash's pocket, Terradon, Aethera, Searine, Tigacore, and Tornadowl appear and they roar. "The Legendary Pokemon!" Rodney says.

"No way, Ash has all 5 of them?" Keira gasps.

Then the 5 Pokemon go towards their stones, and then they use their moves, Earth Power, Flare Blitz, Hydro Pump, Squall Blow, and Electro Ball, with Cellance's Hyper Voice, they destroy the two crystals, including the Balance Crystal. Then the five Pokemon take their stones back and also destroy them.

"No..." Derek and Starla are sharing the same shock.

"It's over, Team Solar and Team Lunar!" Professor Pinewood says. "The Legendary Pokemon cannot be controlled by you anymore, it's all over."

"No...It, it can't be..." Starla kneels as Gloria rushes to her. "Mother..."

"This...This can't be it...all of our plans...all of our effort..." Derek mutters as Marcus asks, "Father..."

"What do we do now?" "It's over, no one wins...let's get outta here before the Police arrive!" The grunts are leaving, only to be caught in the net by the International Police leading by Looker and Anabel. "You have nowhere to go."

"Mother...we need to go, now!" Gloria yells. "Father...we can't get caught, we can fix this, please, we need to go..."

But the two of the leaders are staying motionless and Brite sees that the international police and he says, "The police are here, we need to get outta here!" "Sorry, Marcus, but I don't wanna be locked up, I'm leaving!" Scarlett tries to run, but too late as they are caught.

"You won't be leaving anywhere, we need you to pay for your crimes." Anabel says as she stops the two commanders.

"Now the only left..." Looker says as they look at the other 4 people left. Gloria asks, "Auntie, can you help us?" Amber says, "I..."

Marcus says, "Please, Uncle, you are the only one that can save father." Damon says, "Well..."

But then Looker and Anabel also handcuff them, but with Amber and Damon's persuasion, they manage to let Marcus and Gloria free but with their custody. After seeing Derek and Starla leaving with the other police, the two of the Gym Leaders can only tell them that they will be back and they will be together again. The two commanders didn't like it, but it is a better outcome for them.

"It's all over..." Ash says.

"Yeah, we stopped them..." Alice says.

"That was so scary, but we are glad it is over." Keira says.

"Yeah." Rodney nods in agreement. Anabel says, "Thank you, all of you, without your help, the region would've been destroyed."

Then, much to their surprise, Solaran and Lunaro, as well as Cellance approach Ash and Alice, Solaran says, "Thank you for saving us from these bad guys."

Lunaro says, "We really don't like to battle each other, I am glad you saved us from that."

Ash says, "It is no problem, what are you going to do?"

Cellance says, "We will be heading to your island, and we shall meet you there." Then the three Pokemon fly off.

Delia says, "Now you can carry on with your journey now, without having to worry about those Teams now."

Wade says, "Which means that you can battle me after you have all seven gym badges. I am looking forward to your challenge in my gym."

"After battling him, you can enter the Pokemon League." Reisa says.

"Yeah, I am so excited. Let's promise to meet up soon for a battle!" Keira says.

"I am going to get training now if I want to beat Wade. Beating Alice is not easy, which means that Wade must be stronger." Rodney says.

After everyone leaves except Ash and his family, Alice, Professor Pinewood, Anabel, and Looker. Anabel says, "So we finally meet again, Ash. You sure look different than we last meet."

"Yeah, I didn't know you are a member of the International Police, Anabel, did Scott send you here to find me as well?"

"Well, Scott didn't know that you are here, he has been finding you of course. But the reason we come is that we heard of Team Solar and Team Lunar and Delia calls us for help." Anabel says as he nods.

Looker says, "And there is something we have to discuss, the murderers of Professor Oak and your Pokemon."

Ash and Alice sigh as Ash says, "We can discuss it back to the Sevestar Island." They nod as they all go there using the helicopter.


And this is the end of Team Solar and Team Lunar, now that Ash and Alice are going back to Sevestar Island along with his siblings and family. But what will happen if Ash meets the others who were controlled to betray him?
