Episode XIX
CHALLENGE ON ARACHNID ISLAND
PART I
Captured in the Gym
Jay Barial
Chapter One: A Simple Wish
An evil smile appeared upon the gym leader's face, as she sat in her old chair watching a secret camera placed not to far from the gym. She watched a small Pokémon battle happening. And she knew she would soon have four trainers; either to battle with, or to have forever trapped with her master. She rang a small bell.
A servant rushed to the gym leader. {My leader, you rang for me,} said Solar, in a strange form of mental speech.
The gym leader nodded. {Yes. With your best Pokémon, I want you to bring me these four trainers,} she ordered with the telepathic speech. She pointed at the two trainers fighting then at the two trainers watching. {They may be the ones we need.}
* * * *
Dee's Solar Orb hovered above the ground.
Jason's Ratoran Male hissed at the hovering ball of electricity.
"Solar Orb, agility-slam attack!" ordered Dee.
"Ratoran Male, hyper horn!" growled Jason.
Solar Orb shot around as fast as it could at the odd mix between Rattata and Nidoran Male. Ratoran shot up at Solar Orb, head down with its horn pointing right at its challenger, but Solar Orb shot up into the air and slammed down onto Ratoran.
Jay Barial, a Super Pokémon trainer, watched his friend battle Jason, a wandering traveler. Next to him was Agua, his friend he had made along his way, and on the other side of him was Ultra, his first Super Pokémon. He smiled as Dee's evolved Orb attacked the small Ratoran.
The trio of trainers had been placed on Arachnid Island, after the famous AngelFire had sunken. They had defeated Team Rocket three times in the couple of days. Once the ship had sunk, the group got out of it, and where washed ashore after a big battle against Jay's wild Flamed and Agua's wild Gyarados. And that's how they were stuck on the island. And now, they began to enjoy themselves, and so they had challenged a wandering stranger, Jason, to a match.
"Ratoran Male!" cried Jason as his poor Pokémon fell to the ground.
Suddenly, it began glowing. The trainer smiled.
"Now you've done it." Jason jumped up. "Ratoran Male still has a chance!"
Jay and Agua both said in unison, "That's a laugh."
Ultra nodded. "Ultra, tra ra."
"My Ratoran Male is evolving!" The trainer was right. Ratoran Male glowed and grew into a larger Super Pokémon. "Ratorino!"
Jay held up his Pokédex. "Ratorino, and evolved form of the Ratoran Male. It's a mixture of Raticate and Nidorino. It's horn and bites are highly poisonous. Evolves into Ratoking."
Dee raised an eyebrow. "So, this shouldn't be too hard! Solar eclipse, now!"
"Orb!" Solar Orb shot up into the ship, blocking the sun from Ratorino's eyes. The poor poison-rat Pokémon could barely see anything.
FLASH. The full effect of the attack kicked in. The Ratorino became completely blind and paralyzed.
"Finish it-" But before Dee could finish anything, Solar Orb was knocked from the sky and a large black fleet of somethings appeared.
Chapter Two: The Death of a Pokémon
Jay, Dee, Agua, Ultra, Jason, and his Ratorino went to the ground. The large flock of Pokémon shot around in the sky.
"Golbat," hissed Dee.
Jay raised an eyebrow. "What are they? And why are they attacking us?"
Dee crawled towards Jay and her friends. "That would be a good question. They usually are found in caves. They hate sun light and Solar Orb would be the last thing wild Golbat would attack."
"Tra ra raaa," whined Ultra.
"Careful Ultra," warned Jay. "We have to get these Golbat away from Solar Orb."
"Ratorino, try to drive away these Golbat with a jump kick," ordered a voice.
Dee gasped. She had totally forgotten about Ratorino and Jason. She nodded to herself. "Solar Orb, flash now, blind the Golbat!"
Jay, Dee, Agua, and Ultra all shielded their eyes as Solar Orb gave off a large flash of light.
The Golbat all screeched in pain as Solar Orb's attack hit. Suddenly, Ratorino jumped into the air and screamed. It had also been blinded.
Jay froze when he mysterious heard "Agility-Wing-Attack" in his head from an unknown source. Just from out of no where.
The Golbat shot up in the air slicing at the airborne Ratorino. The Super Pokémon was extremely hurt as it started falling back to the ground. The Golbat continued attacked.
"Ultra, we'll need your best aim," said Jay. "Chain-thunder shocker!"
"Traaaaaaa!" Electricity shot from its tail and multiplied as it got into the air. Nearly all of the Golbat fell to the ground. Ratorino, unharmed from the electricity, hit the ground hard.
"Return. . . gym" was all Jay heard in his mind when the Golbat all started to leave. Ultra too had also heard something. Jay could tell when its ears moved down sadly.
Jason, Dee, Solar Orb, and Agua rushed over to Ratorino as Jay and Ultra looked around for the source of the voice.
"Ultra, did you hear-" began Jay.
Ultra nodded. It had spooked the little psychic/electric rodent.
"Jay!" shouted Dee. "Get over here now! I think Ratorino's dead!"
Chapter Three: The Mysterious Gym
The word "dead" made Jay's soul freeze.
"Did you hear me Jay," growled Dee. "Get over here now!"
Jay and Ultra rushed over.
Ultra placed his small paws on Ratorino's neck. He frowned. Ultra managed to whine, "Raaa." He began to charge up a small static bolt to try to revive Ratorino.
For a moment, Ratorino stirred and moaned "Iinnoo. Rat, ator. . . ino."
Ultra nodded as Ratorino's eyes slowly closed.
* * * *
As the flock of Golbat returned to the gym, a shadowy figure hovered at the entrance of the gym.
Numerous ghost Pokémon and Super Pokémon opened the door for the figure.
As the servant began to head in, it stopped at the booming voice of its master.
{Psyghost,} growled gym leader, {where are they?}
The Super Pokémon, Psyghost, walked up to its master. {Agatha, I shall not continue in this deal. Your Golbat killed a Ratorino.}
{So?} asked Agatha. {It's a cemetery. Pokémon die all the time.}
{Let me rephrase that.} Psyghost hovered closer to the old, ex-Elite Four member. {You murdered a Pokémon.}
Agatha smiled. {What are you going to do? Kill me? I'm already dead! But thanks to the restless . . . spirits we could call them, I have been revive.}
Groups of evolved Orb, Gastly, Haunter, Gengar, and many other ghost hovered out from behind Agatha. They weren't the ones that had revived him, but they were now all servants of Agatha.
{Get Psyghost,} ordered Agatha to the ghosts.
* * * *
"Ratorino," moaned Jason.
Jay, Dee, Agua, Ultra, and Jason all hovered above the dead Pokémon.
Ultra tugged at Jay's leg. "Tra. . . ."
"What is it Ultra?" asked Jay.
Ultra pointed to Ratorino. Ultra held up three fingers, then two, and finally one. Then Ultra put his paws together and shut his eyes tight.
"Ratorino's last wish?" asked Jay. "What was it Ultra."
Ultra jumped up, grabbed Jay's Pokédex, which had the map screen on it, and pointed at one part of it.
Dee raised an eyebrow. Agua gave a confused look. Jason still gazed at his Pokémon.
Jay began to click and do a number of things with the Pokédex.
When he finally stopped, Agua asked, "Well? What was Ratorino's last wish?"
"It had something with the gym we were headed to," replied Jay. "The Mysterious Gym, it's called. Haunted by ghost Pokémon. It's lead by Agatha, the ex-Elite Four member."
"Ain't she dead?" asked Dee.
Jay shook his head. "Guess not. Anyway, it's also a cemetery for Pokémon. It's one of the few Pokémon cemetery, besides the Pokémon Tower in Lavender Town."
Agua shook Jason. "Jason, we're heading to the Mysterious Gym to put Ratorino at its final resting place."
Jason nodded. "To the Mysterious Gym."
Chapter Four: A Disappearance
{Agatha.} A Solar Orb hovered to its gym leader. {Agatha. I've been tracking the Jay, Dee, and Agua. They're heading to the gym.}
Agatha nodded. {Good. Now I shall have my revenge. After the destruction of my . . .} Agatha cleared her throat. {After the destruction of my "best Pokémon," Gastly, I shall have my revenge.}
Solar Orb seemed to know that Agatha was lying about something with the whole Gastly ordeal. The Gastly that she was referring to was one that had not originated from the gym. But that wasn't the thing to deal with right now. {B-but there's a problem,} said Solar Orb.
Agatha's eyes flared with a fiery rage. {What?}
{J-J-Jason, the trainer who's Ratorino was killed, is coming too,} answered the Solar Orb. {He's coming to bring his Ratorino to its final resting-place.}
{Fine,} growled Agatha. {All we need to do is kill their Pokémon to create them into ghost troops. Besides, I have already hired three trainers to take care of them.}
{A-alright,} answered Solar Orb.
{Looks like Psyghost will have some company,} sneered Agatha.
* * * *
Team Rocket, hiding behind a tree, all smirked and talked about the mission Agatha had given them, along with their own altered plan with numerous Poké Balls and Super Balls at their feet.
"And now since Agatha and her ghost have hired us to capture these brats," said Fire Kat, "with the help of her best ghost, we'll finally capture Ultra for ourselves! And her little ghost too!"
"This is the best plan since when we struck the Forest Gym," said Kelly.
"Snake Glare, Gaser, Alakazam, and Agatha's ghost will easily capture them," said Mike.
Nick gave an evil smile. "And just as the Solar Orb said, those rotten kids are coming."
* * * *
Jay, Dee, Agua, Ultra, and Jason, with Ratorino in his arms, walked closer to a large building came near to them.
Suddenly, Ultra began coughing. He stopped as he noticed smog appearing.
"Prepare for trouble," said a voice.
"And you can make that double, double," said another voice.
Chapter Five: Team Rocket and the Ghosts
"Prepare for trouble," said a voice.
"And you can make that double, double," said another voice.
"To protect the world from devastation," said a third voice.
"To bind all bad guys within our nation," agreed a fourth voice.
"To announce the evils of truth and love," continued the first figure.
"To extend our reach to the stars above," replied the second.
"Mike!" The gas cleared to reveal a member of Team Rocket.
"Nick." The gas cleared to reveal the other member of Team Rocket.
"And Kelly." And finally the gas cleared to reveal the final member of Team Rocket.
The altered Meowth walked out from between Team Rocket's feet, "Fiiiiiire Kat that's right!"
"Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light," said Kelly.
"Surrender now, or prepare to fight. . . ," began Fire Kat.
"All of us!" they finished.
Jay frowned. "Now is a bad time."
"There's always time for us." Kelly gave an evil smile. "Let's attack Rockets!"
"Ghosts, attack!" Mike and Nick threw Super and Poké Balls and out came ghost Pokémon.
"Gaser, Snake Glare, stop them now!" ordered Nick and Mike.
"Gaser, smokescreen," commanded Nick.
"Snake Glare, glare," ordered Mike.
"Glare!" Snake Glare's eyes flashed and the four trainers, along with Ultra, became paralyzed.
"Gassss!" Gaser exploded with poison gases and no one could see around them.
"Get them!" ordered Kelly.
Ultra clung onto Jay's leg so the ghost might miss.
"I have to stop them," thought Jay aloud. He grabbed a Super Ball. "Winger, I choose you!" He threw it up into the air and out came the Pokémon.
"Wingeeeeer!" it shouted.
"Winger, whirlwind the gases away!" shouted Jay.
"Wing-Wing-Wing!" Winger flapped its wings and sent the gas flying. Once it was cleared, there stood Jay, with Ultra clung to his leg, Winger circling around in the air, and Jason with Ratorino next to him. But, everyone else, including Team Rocket, was gone.
****WHO'S THAT POKéMON: LMUETAI BOR?****
Chapter Six: An Unfriendly Welcome
****IT'S ULTIMATE ORB! "Ultimate Orb!!"****
"They're all gone," hissed Jay. "Shoot!"
Jason sighed. "It must have something to do with the Mysterious Gym."
"Team Rocket must have been working for the person, or Pokémon, who killed Ratorino," suggested Jay.
"Ra traa," moaned Ultra.
"It's okay," said Jay. "We'll find them."
* * * *
As the gases had filled the area, Dee had blacked out. Now, she had come to, she was in a cage.
Not to far from here were other cages. Agua, Nick, Mike, Kelly, Fire Kat, and another strange Pokémon were in them.
{Ah, the first one to wake,} said a mysterious voice in Dee's head. {Welcome Dee. Yes, welcome to the Mysterious Gym. You'll be staying here for awhile. A long while. Forever.}
Dee just glared. "You can't keep us here forever! We'll escape! We have our Pokémon!"
The old woman laughed. {If you haven't noticed, all your Super and Poké Balls are gone.}
Dee froze as she noticed they lady was correct. "Jay and Jason will rescue us! With the help of Ultra!"
The woman smiled. {Two humans and their Pokémon against me and my ghost Pokémon. They don't stand a chance.}
* * * *
BAAM!
Jay slammed his fists against the entrance of the Mysterious Gym. "Let us in now! We know you have our friends!"
"And enemies," added in Jason.
"Tra, tra," Ultra said with a nod.
Jay glared. "If they won't let us in, we'll have to let ourselves in!" He grabbed a Super Ball. "Attacker, let's go!"
"Attack!" growled the Super Pokémon as it appeared before Jay.
"Attacker, use your strength to ram the door," ordered Jay.
The large fighting Pokémon nodded. It backed away and ran at top speed at the door. With splinters flying everywhere, Attacker rammed the door.
As the door fell to the ground, Jay heard the familiar sound of wings beating hard.
"Jason, Attacker, Ultra, down on the ground," shouted Jay. "The Stung are coming out!"
Chapter Seven: The Searching
Jason and the Pokémon did as Jay said, and as Jay said, Stung, the mix between Butterfree and Beedrill, came flying out in packs.
Then, a Gastly appeared and growled in a speech of though, {Stung, attack the Pokémon and trainers now!}
The Stung began circling around the group and started attacking.
Jay sighed. "I'm having flash-backs of escaping from Gastly at Chris's Gym. Ultra, give another chain-thunder shocker now!"
"TRAAAA!" Electricity shot from Ultra's tail, and multiplied as they shocked Stung.
{Grrrrr!} growled the Gastly. {Holograms, off!}
Suddenly, the Stung disappeared.
Jay gasped. "They aren't real! Ultra, thunderwave now! Paralyze Gastly!"
"ULTRA!" Electricity shock from Ultra's cheeks and electricity surrounded the ghost Pokémon.
"Psytoss now!"
Ultra's eyes glowed as Gastly was shot up into the air. Then back down. Then up again.
{G-g-gaaastly!} Suddenly, the ghost disappeared too.
"That was a hologram too!" exclaimed Jay.
{What a bright little captive we have,} said a voice. {Yes, very bright.}
A woman suddenly appeared floating from above. Jay had seen her before. She had been a member of Elite Four in the days when Mewtwo was only a myth. Back when Jesse and James, along with Meowth, were the top members of Team Rocket. Even though she should have been dead, there, above Jay, Jason, Ultra, and Attacker, was Agatha.
"Oh no," moaned Jay. "This place is haunted by human ghost too!" He held out a Super Ball. "Attacker, return!"
The fighting Pokémon shot into its Super Ball.
{In order to ever see your friends again, you must defeat me in battle,} said Agatha. {And if you win, your friends and their Pokémon will be set free. If you lose, you will be joining them.}
"Well you are a gym leader so I don't see why I shouldn't challenge you anyway!" growled Jay.
"And I'll help," added in Jason.
"Tag-Team," they said together.
{You will face me in the center of my gym,} ordered Agatha as she disappeared.
Chapter Eight: Agatha's Challenge
Jay, Ultra, and Jason, with Ratorino at his side, all stood at one end of the gym. Agatha was at the other end.
{Are you sure you want to challenge me?} asked Agatha. {You can just give up now if you wish.}
"Never," growled Jay. He grabbed a Super Ball. "How many Super Balls?"
{Three,} replied Agatha. {My first Pokémon will be- Ultimate Orb!}
An evolved Orb appeared in front of Agatha.
Jay raised an eyebrow. "Ultimate Orb? Since we all have Orb at their fullest state, except for one, this must be an evolved Super Orb."
Agatha nodded. {I see we've been studying. Who will you choose?}
"I choose you, Morpher!" A Super Ball hit the ground, and out came the transforming Pokémon, Morpher.
{Hit it hard and hit it now!} growled Agatha. {Before it transforms! Psyblast!}
A flash filled the room and Morpher fell to the ground. He fainted and suddenly began shaking.
{Another victim!} Agatha laughed evilly.
"Ultra, revive Morpher now!" shouted Jay.
Ultra gave a small shock to make sure Morpher's heart was still beating.
Morpher finally stopped shaking, but was still breathing.
"Return!" Morpher shot back into the Super Ball. "Alright, Ultra, let's go!"
Ultra moved forward, getting ready to attack.
{Ultimate Orb, stop it now,} growled Agatha. {Night Shade!}
"Ultra, agility-minimize!" shouted Jay.
As waves shot from Ultimate Orb, Ultra shrunk down and began jumping from area-to-area avoiding the waves.
"Ultra, thunder now!" ordered Jay with a shout.
Clouds above rumbled and a static bolt appeared near the floor like a glow-bug. Suddenly, Electricity shot down from the sky to charge up Ultra. And with an- "ULTRA TRA!" Ultra released its electricity and shocked the Ultimate Orb.
{Return!} Ultimate Orb disappeared into the Super Ball. Another Super Ball appeared. {Psyghost, attack!}
Out came a strange creature.
"What the heck is that?!" exclaimed Jay. He held up his Pokédex.
"Psyghost, the psychic-ghost Pokémon," answered Jay's Pokédex. "Psyghost was only a rumor years ago, which was later created. Psyghost is a mixture of the three original Pokémon Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar. Recently, it is said there is some of Ultra's DNA was placed into Psyghost to create its psychic powers."
"It's the tail," murmured Jay and Jason in unison.
Ultra gave a confused look as it looked back at its tail and then at Psyghost's tail. "Tra?"
"Ultra, shocker!" commanded Jay.
Suddenly, electricity surrounded Ultra like its thunder shield attack.
{Psyghost, hypnosis,} said Agatha confidently.
"Pssssyghossst," murmured Psyghost. "Psssyghossst." Hypnosis-waves shot from Psyghost's eyes and slowly put Ultra, in its electric shield, asleep.
"WAKE UP!" shouted Jay.
Agatha smiled evilly. {Your Ultra's trapped. It's still charging up for its shocker attack. Hah, Psyghost, destroy it now! Make sure this is a very critical hit. Nightmare, now!}
"Nightmare?" repeated Jay.
"Nightmare," answered Jay's Pokédex. "This attack only works once an enemy is asleep, like Dream Eater. In fact, it is an extension of that attack. It will eat the enemies dream, and cause it scare/injure itself." (ULTRAM'S NOTE: This nightmare attack, oppose to the new nightmare attack in GS, was developed first. The two attacks are different from the nightmare TM in Gold and Silver. Okay? Okay!)
"Uh no," murmured Jay.
Chapter Nine: Captured
The nightmare waves shot from Psyghost's eyes.
"ULTRA!" Jay lunged for Ultra and covered his Pokémon. "STOP!"
{Psyghost, mind control,} ordered Agatha. {Awaken him.}
Psyghost's eyes flashed red and suddenly, the electricity exploded from Ultra and shocked Jay.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" cried Jay. The shock slowly made him black out. But before he did, he heard Agatha order Psyghost to use mimic.
Suddenly, there was another blast of electricity, and Jay slowly blacked out.
* * * *
"Jay! Jay! Jay!" were the words Jay awoken to after Ultra's shock.
"Ugh," moaned Jay. He stirred and opened his eyes and looked around.
He was in a cage. It was more or less darkness all around him. The only thing was, it was just a black room, not dark, just black. The room seemed so empty though. Except for cages spread all across the room. Cages like his.
"Jay! Are you alright!" growled a familiar voice. It was Dee's voice.
She was in a cage near him.
"Dee, is that really you?" murmured Jay. He was still dazed from the shock.
He saw Dee shake her head. "No guys he's not okay."
Jay looked around. He finally noticed the captives. There was Agua, Dee, and a Psyghost, along Ultra, and Jason, they also had blacked out, and a cage full of Poké and Super Balls, along with the prize eggs Jay, Agua, and Dee had received at Egg Town.
"Uh no," he mumbled. He glared, still dazed, at Psyghost. "You. . . ."
{Ah, the trainer has awoken,} said the Pokémon. {Yes, I am Psyghost, I am the one who attacked your Ultra.}
"Why you- ARG!" Jay screamed in pain.
{Ah yes, the after effect of a human gaining so much electricity from an Ultra,} murmured Psyghost.
"Why?" moaned Jay.
{Why what?} asked Psyghost. {Why did I attack? Because I was forced to. I'm trapped here you know, like most lost souls. But, Agatha has psychic powers and can control me. Besides, the other ghost out number me.}
Dee shook her cage. "We must escape."
{There may be a way for three of us to escape,} said Psyghost. {I will be able to teleport three of you. If everyone is teleported, Agatha will go after everyone. Besides, my powers may not last long enough to get you all to safety. So, who's it gonna be?}
Dee and Agua turned to the still dazed Jay. "Who. . . me?"
"I'll go with him," said Jason.
"Ultra tra," added in Ultra.
{You'll have to defeat Agatha to free us,} continued Psyghost. {And the ultimate Pokémon to use against ghost Pokémon are the arachnid Pokémon.}
"And there has to be arachnid Pokémon on Arachnid Island," said Dee.
"Duh," muttered Agua.
{Spidey, Spida, and Spika,} said Psyghost. {These are the three ones that inhabit the island. The final arachnid is somewhere near Indigo Plateau.}
"Anyway. . . ," muttered Agua.
{Anyway they are in the web forest,} answered the ghost. {It's in the center of the island. Bugs and arachnids are crawling around everywhere.}
"Alright, Ultra, you ready?" asked Jason.
"Tra!" Ultra sparked happily.
"And Jay?" asked Jason.
"Wha?" he murmured. "Um, what?"
{Alright, I'll teleport you.} Suddenly, Psyghost began to glow. The trio glowed too. In a flash, Jay, Ultra, and Jason were not in cages anymore. They were outside of the gym.
Then, the ground began to rumble. A shadow appeared over the sun. And with a large cry, the bird Pokémon appeared.
Chapter Ten: Attack of Feargost
{Hahahahaha!} cackled Agatha's voice. She appeared on the bird Pokémon's neck. {Just when you thought you would escape me, Feargost appears.}
Jay grabbed his Pokédex. "Feargost, the phantom bird Pokémon. It is said to only be a myth. Numerous ghost-bird Pokémon were combined into one, including Fearow. Only one is known to live on Earth."
{ Feargost, scream!} ordered Agatha.
"FEEEEEEAR!" cried Feargost. Sonic waves shot from its mouth. Jay, Ultra, and Jason fell to the ground. The sound was so high-pitched, that their hearing slowly disappeared and they slowly became paralyzed.
"Ultra, shocker, now!" ordered Jay.
Ultra just blinked in confused.
I forgot, Ultra can't hear, Jay thought.
{Feargost,} said Agatha's voice in Jay's mind, {attack them with light shade!}
Feargost circled around the trio and waves shot from its wings. Lights flashed. Jay slowly became blinded.
{Now you all should be mine for the taking.} Agatha laughed evilly.
{Jay, Ultra, Jason, let me handle this,} said another telepathic voice. {It is I, Psyghost! Feargost will be mine! I can handle it.}
"Psyghost!" I managed to shout.
{Recover the trio!} ordered Psyghost.
There was a flash of light and my sight and hearing had returned.
"Ultra, shocker attack," commanded Jay.
{I shall use, psyblast!} announced Psyghost.
"RRRRRAAAAAAAA!" Electricity leaped from Ultra and hit Feargost out of its path of flight.
There was a flash of light as Psyghost sent a blast of psywaves at Feargost sending it to the ground.
{You shall not defeat Feargost so easily,} warned Agatha. {Feargost, hypnosis!}
"Ultra agility!" said Jay.
{Mimic Ultra,} Psyghost told himself.
Psyghost and Ultra dodged from place to place avoiding Feargost's attack of sending hypnosis waves from its wings.
"Think Jay think," muttered Jay. "Which Pokémon can help them. I know! Winger!" Jay fished around for the Super Ball only to discover- "Waaah! I left my Super Balls in the cage!"
"So did I!" cried Jason.
Jay frowned. "This isn't good."
"Well, it is a bird, Ultra should be able to at least paralyze it with its shocker," suggested Jason.
Jay nodded. "Might as well try. Shocker attack now!"
{Mimic,} repeated Psyghost.
Electricity shot from Psyghost and Ultra and knocked the Feargost out of the sky.
{Feargost!} cried Agatha.
"Ultra, thunderwave Agatha!" shouted Jay
"TRRRAAAAAA!" Electricity surrounded Agatha.
{Now we must escape,} said Psyghost. {Quickly, to the forest!}
Chapter Eleven: Safe and Caged
Dee sighed. "I wish I knew if Jay, Ultra, Jason, and Psyghost are okay."
Agua raised an eyebrow. "You're worried about Psyghost. One of Agatha's forces. Come on. And you barely know Jason."
"They are helping us, I'm grateful," replied Dee. "You should be like that sometimes Agua."
Agua glared.
{Well girls, I'm glad you're enjoying your stay,} came a ghastly voice.
"Agatha," hissed Dee.
{Correct young trainer,} said Agatha. The old woman appeared in front of Dee and Agua's cage. {Your friends escaped my Feargost, but not too worry, they will be captured. I have my ghost searching for them as we speak.}
"You'll never get to them," growled Dee. "Jay and Ultra are two of a kind. They won't be captured by the likes of you."
{Are you so sure?} Agatha smiled. {A whole army of ghost against a electric/psy rodent, a little psychic ghost, a sappy trainer, and a Pokémon-less Pokémon trainer.}
Agua frowned.
{The island isn't that big,} added in Agatha. {Besides, they will be probably heading towards the forests, so they can defeat my with the spider Pokémon, if they can capture them.}
"Jay can captured anything!" growled Agua.
Dee raised an eyebrow.
"Most of the time," finished Agua.
Dee nodded.
{Jay and Jason's Pokémon are there, only Pokémon they have are Ultra and Psyghost,} finished Agatha. {Those two will never stop my whole army.}
Agatha teleported away and suddenly, a large ghost-bird Pokémon appeared where Agatha had stayed.
"AAAAAAHHHHHH!" screamed the girls.
When they stopped screaming, Dee noticed, "Hey, it looks paralyzed. Hey! This is probably Feargost, Agatha's Pokémon."
"Do you understand me?" asked Agua.
"Fear! Gost! Fear-fear gost!" growled Feargost.
"Doesn't speak english," answered Dee. "Oh well, we might as well get to know it."
Chapter Twelve: Well, What Next?
"Well, what next?" asked Jay as he walked with Jason and Ultra with Psyghost hovering next to them.
{We need to rescue your friends,} answered Psyghost. {But we can't save them with only Ultra and me.}
"So we're getting arachnid Pokémon," continued Jason. "Spidey, Spida, Spika."
Psyghost nodded.
"Tra-tra raaa!" whined Ultra.
Psyghost shook his head. {Nope, no Pokémon Center here, unless you want to go back to Egg Town.}
"No, we have to hurry," said Jay.
"So no other centers until when?" asked Jason.
{No more centers until we reach the town outside of the forest,} answered Psyghost. {You should use your heals and potions to keep your Pokémon strong.}
Jay made a face. "I don't have any. Heh."
Ultra sighed. "Ra. . ."
* * * *
Soon, the two trainers and two Pokémon reached the entrance of the forest where they could already see millions of bugs flying and crawling around.
"Alright," said Jay. "Psyghost, Ultra, Jason, let's head on in!"
* * * *
A whole group of Solar, Ultimate, Ice, Electric, Fire, Super, Water, and Static Orb, along with numerous Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar headed towards the forest.
The group hovered over the Arachnid Forest.
The Haunter in charge, who wasn't actually from the gym but from Agatha's master, ordered, {All groups, spread out. Solar and Fire Orb and Gastly, entrance of the forest. Ice and Water Orb and Gengar, exit of the forest. The rest of you, search the rest of the forest. We shall not fail. Find Jay, Jason, Ultra, and Psyghost!}
Many "Orb-Orb," "G-G-Gaaastly," "Haunter!" and "Gengar-Gengar!" shouted out from Haunter's troops.
The ghosts all went invisible and headed down into the forest below.
What will become of Jay, Ultra, Jason, and Psyghost? Will Jay and Jason be able to capture the spider Pokémon that live in the forest? Will Agatha's ghost capture the group? What is happening with Dee and Agua back at the gym? Your questions will be answered in Challenge on Arachnid Island Part II: Spidey, Spida, and Spika.
Coming Soon: It's the biggest event for Jay, Dee, Agua, Aqua, Ultram, Blake, Artic, Pikachu, and Venustoise yet! Articuno and Artic versus Lugia and Auqtrias! ¤Ultra Pokémon¤ : The Evolved Pokémon!
