Hello everyone, sorry for the wait, too many things, not enough time. Before we start, I gotta say I've been waiting to do this chapter for a while, and you'll see what I mean later in the chapter. Also to answer a question from another story, when I say "gang" or "Best Friend Squad" I mean, Noah, Adora, Glimmer, Bow, and their Pokemon. And I'll work out a team name to call Chloe, Catra, Scorpia, and their Pokemon later in this chapter. Now here's chapter 8.
Chapter 8
Princess Prom and Pirate Party
Bright Moon
Adora knocked on the door to Glimmer's room with Noah, Eevee, and Popplio behind her, and a scroll in her hands. "Uh, hey, guys? I got an invite for the All-Princess Ball, Winter wonderland. Do you know what this is?" Adora asked Bow and Glimmer who was on the other side of the door. "Princess Prom!" Glimmer and Bow said to Adora, bursting the door open and walking back into the room.
"Princess Prom! Princess Prom! We are going to princess Prom!" Bow and Glimmer said at the same time, walking around Glimmer's room celebrating. Adora, Noah, and the Pokemon gave them a confused look of what's up with them. "Okay, you've gone crazy, got it. I'll just come back later." Adora said, trying to leave, with Bow stopping her.
"The All-Princess Ball is a meeting of all the princesses of Etheria." Bow said to Adora. "And a giant party! Dancing, food, fancy dresses." Glimmer said to Adora, grabbing Adora, and dancing with Adora. "Dancing?" Adora asked, freaking out a little. "It only happens once a decade. I've been waiting years for this!" Glimmer said to everyone, as she let go of Adora.
"That explains why you and Bow are so excited." Noah said to everyone. "Uh… But you know, I'm- I'm only a princess sometimes. Are you sure I should even go?" Adora asked Glimmer. "Of course. Every princess is invited. That includes you." Glimmer said to Adora, as Noah and the pokemon walked to Glimmer. "Oh, yeah. It's all in the invite." Bow said to Adora, as he took the message scroll and unrolled it, making it go over Eevee, and to the wall of the room.
"Glimmer, Bow, can't you two see that Adora's nervous about going to this party? And that invite is not helping" Noah asked Glimmer and Bow, as they watched Eevee having a hard time getting out from under a scroll. "What is this thing?" Eevee asked, before Adora freed Eevee from the scroll, held her and started to read it.
"Okay. "Rules for greeting the hostess. Expected curtsy depth. Proper stair-descending etiquette?" Adora asked, find these reducalus. "What is this, a manual?" Noah asked, looking at all the rules. "The Ball has been going on for centuries. There's a lot of old etiquette stuff you gotta do before you can party." Bow said to Noah. "But it's gonna be so fun!" Glimmer said to everyone.
"Given this manual in front of us. I doubt that very much." Noah said to Glimmer. "I will be amazing. And Princess Frosta is hosting this year in the Kingdom of Snows." Glimmer said to everyone. "That explains the Winter wonderland part of the invite." Noah said to everyone. "Her magic is incredibly powerful. She'd be a huge get for the Rebellion." Glimmer said to everyone.
This made Adora feel a lot of pressure, and sit down, whimpering. "Don't worry. I'll be right there with you, and so will Bow, since he's going as my plus one. And Noah will be your pulse one." Glimmer said to Adora, as they took a seat next to Adora. "Uh… Actually…" Bow said, but Glimmer interrupted him.
"Together, the four of us can handle anything." Glimmer said to everyone. "About that." Bow said, but Glimmer interrupted him again. "It's the best friends squad in action." Glimmer said to everyone. "Right, Bow?" Glimmer asked Bow. "I'm going with Perfuma." Bow said to Glimmer. "What?" Glimmer asked Bow.
Fright Zone
Meanwhile in the Fright Zone. Catra, Chloe, Scorpia, Purrloin, Oshawott and Stufful were in Catra's room. "I'm sick of this. Shadow Weaver failed to get Adora, and if Hordak finds out she's disobeying him, we'll take us down with her. She's obsessed. We need to think big picture. It's time for someone new to take over- me. So you in?" Catra asked everyone. "I'm hanging out in your room!" Scorpia said, not paying attention.
"Why is she here?" Chloe asked Catra. "Outside of you. She's the only one I can trust around here." Catra said to Chloe. "Because we're all best friends." Scorpia said to Catra. "Stop being you and help me think." Catra said to Scorpia. "I have the beginning of a plan, but it's not enough. I need to capture Adora so Shadow Weaver doesn't demote me. How do I do both?" Catra asked everyone.
"While your plan should work. We still need to get the ball rolling." Chloe said to Catra. "Why don't you try something at the All-Princess Ball? Every princess is gonna be there, so Adora probably will be too. Ooh! This year's theme is Winter Wonderland." Scorpia said to Catra, as she looked at the scroll.
"How did you get your claws on this?" Catra asked Scorpia, taking the scroll from her, and unrolling it, as she took it and read it. "They sent it to me. I'm a princess." Scorpia said to Catra. "You're a princess?" Catra and Chloe asked Scorpia at the same time. "Yeah, you two know. The Horde crash-landed in my family's kingdom. We let them stay. My family gave Hordak our Runestone, the Black Garnet." Scorpia said to Catra and Chloe.
"You're a princess?" Catra and Chloe asked Scorpia at the same time, again. "Oh, man, I thought everyone knew." Scorpia said to Catra and Chloe. "How would we know that?" Chloe asked Scorpia. "I mean, it's covered in Force Captain orientation." Scorpia said to everyone. "I'm beginning to think I shouldn't have skipped that." Catra said, giving Scorpia the scroll.
"Okay, you're a princess and you're going to a Princess Ball." Catra asked Scorpia. "Oh, no, I'm not going. No. No one liked my family, even before we joined the Horde. Ah… I never really fit with the other princesses. I made them uncomfortable and… yeah, they don't like me." Scorpia said to Chloe and Catra, making everyone look at her with a sad look.
"You know what. You're better than any of the spoiled princesses." Chloe said to Scorpia. "And that's exactly why you have to go. How dare those princesses pretend they're better than you? Just because you're different? How dare they abandon people just because they don't fit in with their perfect little lives?" Catra said to Scorpia, making everyone in the room smile.
"Yeah!" Scorpia said to Catra. "Preach, Catra. Talk about how bad these brats are." Chloe said to Catra. "How dare they take best friends and turn them into giant sword ladies who run off with people clearly inferior to you?" Catra asked everyone. "You're talking about Sparkless again. But who cares." Chloe said to Catra. "You're telling my whole life with your words." Scorpia said to Catra.
"Well, time to show those princesses a thing or two." Catra said to everyone. "You're going, I'm coming as your plus one, and we are going to make this a night no one will ever forget." Catra said to Scorpia. "Leave that to me Catra. I've planned a few great parties." Chloe said to Catra
"Super Pals are going to Prom." Scorpia said to everyone, hugging Catra and Chloe. "You're not calling us that. If we're going to be a group name. We need something more intimidating." Chloe said to everyone, breaking the hug. "How about The Outcasts." Catra said to Chloe. "The Outcasts. I like it. Now Outcasts. Let's get ready for our big night." Chloe said to everyone.
Bright Moon
Bow and Glimmer were walking through the halls, with Ralts and Rowlet following them. "She asked and I said yes. I didn't think it would be a big deal." Bow said to Glimmer. "It's not. It's fine. I'm just surprised. I mean, when did you two even talk about it?" Glimmer asked Bow.
"Oh. She was super slick." Bow said to Glimmer. "Slick? She asked you in the middle of our battle with her at the Horde base. I thought it was in poor taste. Not slick." Rowlet said to Bow. "Yeah. that's super slick to you?" Glimmer asked Bow. "I thought it'd be fun. And Perfuma's Cool." Bow said to Glimmer, as they stopped in front of a door.
"Yeah she's cool. But we always go to events together. We have all our routine, we wear matching outfits, we share inside jokes. And then we eat ice cream afterwards. It's our thing." Glimmer said to Bow. "In other words you're codependent." Ralts said to Glimmer. "I am not." Glimmer said to Ralts. "Well, there's nothing wrong with a new thing. Look, I gotta get ready. We'll hang out with you guys there." Bow said to Glimmer, as he and Rowlet left.
"But I like our old thing." Glimmer said to Bow. "Glimmer! Good. No time to waste." Adora said, opening the door, and grabbed Glimmer and Ralts, surprising them, as she pulled them in and closed the door.
Inside Adora's room, Glimmer noticed Noah, Eevee, and Popplio sitting at a table, with Adora standing, and a very large mind map behind her. "Can you please help us? She's overthinking everything." Noah said to Glimmer, with his and the Pokemon's head on the table. "I've been studying the invite with everyone here. Advance prep will be key to success. I've divided the riles into base parts. Dance rules, etiquette rules, rules for greeting the hostess." Adora said to everyone, using a stick to point
"She drilled us in all of it." Noah said to Glimmer. "It wasn't so bad." Eevee said to Noah. "That's because she made you the princess host." Popplio said to Eevee, as Glimmer took a seat, and Adora cleared her throat.
"I then broke down the ballroom into quadrants, and I'm familiarizing everyone with targets. Ask us anything." Adora said to Glimmer, having Glimmer a few cards. "Princess Frosta." Glimmer said, reading a card. "Ruler of the Kingdom of Snows. First time hosting the ball, biggest Kingdom outside of Bright Moon, natural in the fight against the Horde." Adora said to Glimmer, rolling back the scroll.
"Allies with the Star SIsters, who are friends with Mermista, but not Sweet Be, Who is dating peekablue, as you can tell from the string. Up means friends, down means frenemies. And also I made an obstacle course." Adora said to everyone, pointing to her mind map, and revealing the mess behind the mind map.
"I'm feeling good! I've prepared for any and all possible scenarios. I am so ready for this Ball." Adora said to Glimmer. "Great! What are you wearing?" Glimmer asked Adora. "I was gonna just go as She-Ra. She has better hair." Adora said to Glimmer, holding her hair. "Well, you can't go as She-Ra. They have a strict no weapons rule. Neutral ground and all." Glimmer said to Adora, as she unrolled the scroll and pulled out a hidden sleeve in the scroll.
"You'll have to leave your sword at the door." Glimmer said to Adora. "Oh but it looks like Pokemon can go. But only one Pokemon each and no attacks allowed." Glimmer said to everyone, pulling out another hidden sleeve in the scroll. "Ugh. How are there still more parts to this invite?" Adora asked, with Glimmer gasping.
"You know what this means?" Glimmer asked everyone. "That clothes aren't important and I should just keep studying?" Adora asked Glimmer. "That this party is going to be a nightmare, and we shouldn't go?" Noah asked Glimmer. "It's makeover time!" Glimmer said to everyone. "Can we get dressed up too?" Eevee asked Glimmer. "Of course you can!" Glimmer said to Eevee.
That's when they heard something running towards them. "What the?" Adora asked. That's when Hazel and Autumn entered the room. "Did you say anything about dressing up Pokemon?" Hazel and Autumn asked, at the same time. "Yes. But how did you hear us?" Glimmer asked Hazel and Autumn, as Hazel and Autumn put their hands together and squealed a little.
"Oh it's been too long since we dressed up Pokemon." Autumn said to Hazel. "I know." Hazel said to Autumn. "Noah what's going on?" Adora asked Noah. "You're looking at how they started dating. Before working on my fathers ship. They met at an event for Pokemon fashion, and loved dressing up stage one Pokemon. Feraligatr was always getting dressed up in their silly outfits when he was a Totodile." Noah said to Adora, as Hazel and Autumn took Eevee, Popplio, and Ralts away.
" Uh? Should we go after them?" Adora asked Noah. "Considering they haven't done this in a while. I don't think we can stop them. And while I think this party is a bad idea. I best get ready." Noah said Adora and Glimmer, before leaving, letting Glimmer work on Adora.
After rolling up Adora's hair into a ball, and putting a hair pin in it, Glimmer put dresses on top of Adora to see how it looks. When the first one didn't work, Glimmer went after another dress. But Adora left and got back to studying.
Fright Zone
In the Fright Zone Catra was wearing a dark violet red suit with light violet lines, over a bright violet red button up shirt, dark violet red, and a united bow tie. That's when Scorpia came out in a silly old dress. This made everyone laugh.
Bright Moon
Back in Bright Moon, Bow had gotten into a white suit with black pants, and didn't like it. That's when he took off the lower part of it, revealing his stomach. Now he likes it. Then Bow stuck a black hat into Rowlet, and then a black bow tie.
With Noah, he was cleaning up his white sail uniform, with his necklace hanging outside it. And he was getting his white sail on. But after looking at himself in the mirror, he tossed his hair away. Now he was ready for the Ball.
With Hazel and Autumn. They were trying out multiple outfits with different themes on Eevee, Popplio, and Ralts. And while Eevee and Popplio were having a fun time trying on the different outfits, Ralts was not.
With Glimmer, she was trying out dresses and hair styles on Adora, as Adora looked at her mind maps. Then Adora used her hair pin to pin a note to a mind map.
Fright Zone
In the Fright Zone. Scorpia was showing off a black barliery dress, with red frills and the Horde symbol. Catra, Chloe, and the Pokemon shook their heads no.
Plumeria
In Plumeria, Bow greeted Perfuma at her place, with her in a flower dress, and her hair on the left side of her head. And she had Darling with her, and dearling covered in flowers, like it was a dress.
Bow gave Perfuma a necklace, and put it on her. Perfuma then made a very large flower necklace around Bow. realizing it was too big, Perfuma removed it. Bow then held out a hand, and all of them started to leave.
Fright Zone
In the Fright Zone. The Outcasts were waiting for Scorpia. That's when Scorpia walked up to them, wearing a slander black dress, with a cut in the lower part, and some tears on the upper right shoulder. Scorpia blushes out of embarrassment, while the Pokemon thought she looked good, and Catra and Chloe smiled a wicked smile.
Bright Moon
Back in Bright Moon, Glimmer was in a purple dress with a really fluffy skirt. And Adora was in a red dress, her ponytail was pulled up a little, and held by a butterfly hair pin.
Then Hazel and Autumn open the door, and Eevee, Popplio, and Rals walk into the room. With Eevee wearing a white dress with flower patterns on it. Popplio was wearing a light blue dress, with a dark blue frill at the end, and a white frill over that one. And Ralts was wearing a tiny black suit. The girls love the outfit. That's when Noah knocked on the door. That's when everyone started to leave for the Princess Prom.
Snows
In a city that was bullied out of a massive glacier, Adora was holding up the line to get into the palace. The reason, she was having a hard time letting go of her sword. "Be careful with it. Don't just lean it somewhere with the other swords, Or it might get confused!" Adora said to the guard at the weapon counter. "You really should have left that at home with Feraligatr, Octillery, and Mantine. I left my pulse rifle at home." Noah said to Adora. "Adora, come on!" Glimmer said to Adora, as she dragged Adora away.
After a bit, they made it to the ballroom. "Whoa, heh. It's big." Adora said, as they noticed the very fancy and big party, with large amounts of food and music. "The Ball is one of our most ancient traditions. A princess's first Ball is a huge rite of passage. Plus, the Kingdom of Snows is really big." Glimmer said to everyone, as they walked through the ballroom.
"Which is why we need Frosta. If she joins us, all the other princesses are sure to follow." Adora said to everyone, as they got ready to meet with Frosta. "But Frosta will probably be on edge. If this is such a big deal" Noah said to everyone. "Here we go." Adora said, as it was their turn to great Princess Frosta.
The three of them bowed to the throne, not looking at the ruler. "Hold for one, two, and…" Adora said, but was interrupted by a male voice. "Noah. Is that you?" The male voice asked them.
That's when they raised their heads. Noticed Asher, who was wearing a fabric coat, and Samurott in front of them. with Asher was a large black bat, with shrap red claws, with yellow eyes, and some white fur around its neck.
And in between all of them was a young girl, shh had short cobalt blue bob cut hair, blunt bangs and two strands of hair that hanged in front of her ears, almond-shaped black eyes, blue triangular eyebrows and wearing a three-pointed ice crown that sits like a hairband, she wore a long, blue dress with a fur-lined collar and sleeves, Icicles drops form the fur around her collar, adding an element of opulence to her dress akin to a necklace.
And in the young girl's lap, was a living block of ice, with a bump on its head, yellow eyes, and they could see tiny white stumps for legs. "Noah. you know this guy?" Adora asked Noah. "Ladies, meet Asher. He managed the cargo on my father's ship. And with him are his Samurott, and Noivern." Noah said to Adora.
"Asher, this is Glimmer and Adora. Adora's Pokemon Eevee, Glimmer's Pokemon Ralts, and my new pokemon Popplio." Noah said to Asher. "And allow me to introduce Princess Frosta and her Pokemon, which I gave her, her boy Bergmite." Asher said to Adora. "Samurott? Noivern? And Bergmite?" Adora asked. "Here?" Noah said, pulling out his phone.
Noivern. Sound Wave Pokemon. Flying + Dragon.
Aggressive and cruel, this Pokemon will ruthlessly torment enemies that are helpless in the dark.
Samurott. Formidable Pokemon. Water.
In the time it takes a foe to blink, it can draw and sheathe the seamitars attached to its front legs.
Bergmite. Ice Chunk Pokemon. Ice.
They chill the air around them to -150 degrees Fahrenheit, freezing the water in the air into ice that they use as armor.
"You didn't tell me that's Frosta? She's like, ten." Adora asked Glimmer, as Noah put his phone away, making the crowd gasp. "I'm 11 and three quarters." Frosta said to Adora. "Revered hostess. We come into your hall under the ancient rules of hospitality, bringing greetings from Bright Moon. Noah, a warrior of Bright Moon. And She-Ra, the legendary warrior." Glimmer said to Frosta, making the crowd chatter.
"You are welcome in the Kingdom of Snows under the ancient rules of hospitality. Leave conflict at the door. And please enjoy the Ball." Frosta said to everyone, before making her guards take them away. "Thank you, Your- Majesty." Adora said, as they were forced away from the Frosta.
Once they were far enough away, the guards let them go. "Couldn't have mentioned she was a kid." Adora asked Glimmer. "You did all that research, I assumed you knew!" Glimmer said to Adora. "That research was about the party, not the hoste." Noah said to Glimmer. "You know what? It's fine there's plenty of time still to win her over. Come one, let's rock this Ball!" Glimmer said to everyone.
But none of them knew what to do. "Oh! There's Entrapta and Klink! Heh!" Adora said, as she led everyone to Entrapta. "Adora! Glimmer! Noah! And Little Pokemon. "Are you here to watch the social experiment, too?" Entrapta asked everyone.
"Social experiment?" Adora asked Entrapta. "Different groups are thrown together and forced to mingle. Hierarchies form and break. It's the perfect place to observe behavior. And they have a chief making tiny food for me.
"And here it is." A Female voice said to Entrapta. That's when everyone noticed Mia and Dewgong walking to them, with Dewgong balancing a tray on her nose. "Mia? You're here too?" Noah asked Mia. "And a chief in charge of personal orders, yes." Mia said to Noah. "You know her?" Glimmer asked Noah. "Everyone, this is Mia. the ship's cook, and her partner Dewgong."
Dewgong. Sea Lion Pokemon. Water + Ice.
This Pokemon takes pride in its strength, which allows it to lift things 100 times heavier than itself with no problem at all.
"And here is your food." Mia said, pulling the lid off the tray. "Yeah." Entrapta said, eating the food. "Where's Bow? I wanna show him my new recorder." Entrapta asked everyone. "He's coming later." Glimmer said to Entrapta, folding her arms in an angry gesture.
"Why didn't he come with you? Aren't you friends?" Entrapta asked Glimmer. "Why would you think we're not?" Glimmer asked Entrapta. "There he is! Bow!" Entrapta said, as they noticed Bow, Perfuma, Rowlet, and Deerling walking down some stairs, with them shining.
"They're matching. That's our best friend thing!" Glimmer said to everyone. "Feeling seems to be getting hurt." Entrapta said to everyone. "You think?" Noah asked Entrapta. "Hey, we're here too. Don't make a big thing out of it." Mermista said, as she walked up to everyone, all dressed up for the party, and Staryu with her.
But Glimmer was focusing on Bow and Perfuma, and noticed them laughing. "They're making up their own inside jokes? What? Is perfuma his new best friend now?" Glimmer said, getting upside. "Not gonna get into whatever's happening there." Mermista said. "People walk around in circles." Entrapta whispered into her recorder.
"Or that. Look, have you seen-?" Mermista asked, but was interrupted by singing. "She's a beauty, can't you see?" A male voice said. That's when they noticed Sea Hawk and Pikipek behind them. "She's attending this with me. She's my Princess of the Sea. Mermista." Sea Hawk sang, walking to everyone. "Oh, hey, it's my crew." Sea Hawk said to everyone, putting an arm around Mermista.
"So, Sea Hawk's your plus one?" Adora asked Mermista, with a silly smile on her face. "No. He is just my ride okay? Just my ride." Mermista said to Adora, blushing a little. "You say that, but they're blushing a little. And if he was your ride, then why did you let him in?" Noah asked Mermista.
"Of course. I am her plus one." Sea Hawk said to everyone, whispering the plus one part. "This is the best social experiment I've ever been too!" Entrapta said to everyone. "Whatever. DO they have a kelp bar?" Mermista asked, walking away. "To the buffet!" Sea Hawk said, walking away. "I'll go get them some food." Mia said, as she left
"Advent- Oh, Hi, Bow." Sea Hawk said, as everyone noticed Bow and Perfuman walking to them. "Hey-." Adora said to Bow, but was interrupted by Glimmer wrapping her arms around Adora and Noah, forcing them down a little, and laughing.
"That's so funny, Adora and Noah! What a funny inside joke the three of us just came up with!" Glimmer said to everyone, with Adora having a confused look, Glimmer having a worried look, and Noah having an annoyed look, and looking at Glimmer.
"The She-Ra, Noah, Glimmer. It's great to see you." Perfuma said to everyone, with Bow chuckles. "Perfuma was just telling me about a winged horse. That ate all the apples in Plumeria and then flew away. Sounds familiar?" Bow asked Glimmer. "Sure, whatever. Isn't this fun? Adora, Noah, the Pokemon, and I are having such a great time here together. Just the six of us. Right, Adora, Noah?" Glimmer asked, Adora and Noah.
"Ah Glimmer. Adora's not paying attention." Noah said to Glimmer, as they noticed Adora and Eevee eating everything on a tray that a guard was holding. "Okay. Uh, we're gonna say hi to people. You wanna come?" Bow asked Glimmer. "No, you guys go on. We'll find you later. I wanna hear the rest of this hilarious story that Adora was just telling us." Glimmer said to Bow, as Bow, Perfuma, and their Pokemon left, leaving Glimmer sad.
That's when Adora noticed Frosta and Bergmite alone staring at the food. "Oh, perfect. Frosta's alone. I'm gonna try to smooth things over with her. Coming?" Adora asked everyone. "I don't think Glimmer will." Noah said to Adora, as they noticed Glimmer staring at Bow and Perfuma. "Okay, never mind. I'll just be right back." Adora said, before walking away. "I'll go with you." Eevee said, following Adora.
Noah then noticed that Glimmer was still not paying attention, and he signed. "I should have stayed home. I'm sure, Feraligatr, Octillery, and Mantine are having more fun than this." Noah said.
Bright Moon
Back in Bright Moon, Feraligatr, Octillery, and Mantine were around a table, playing cards. "Looks like I won. Royal Flush." Octillery said, showing off his hand which had a 10, a jack, a queen, a king, and a ace.
"Royal flush? We're playing go fish, not poker." Feraligatr said to Octillery. "Oh right… Can I get a new hand then?" Octrillery asked, making Feraligatr sigh. "Mantine, do you have any 8's?" Feraligatr asked Mantine. "I don't know. I can't pick up my cards, so I haven't looked at them yet." Mantine said to Feraligatr.
This made Feraligatr throw away his cards and slapped a hand into his face. "Why did I think playing cards with you two would be fun?" Feraligatr asked Octillery and Mantine. "What to play, Checkers?" Octellery asked Feraligatr. "Sure. why not." Feraligatr said to Octillery, with a flat tune in his voice.
Snows
Back in Snows, Adora and Eevee were walking to Frosta and Bergmite. "Revered hostess." Adora said to Frosta, greeting Frosta in the tradition of the Ball. But Frosta didn't turn or look at Adora. "I've come to apologize for earlier. I was so rude." Adora said to Frosta. "Yes, you were. But as you're only an honorary princess, you can't be expected to know better." Frosta said to Adora. "And that wasn't rude?" Eevee asked.
"Your kingdom is truly beautiful, Princess Frosta. I'm honored to be here." Adora said to Frosta. "Thank you. And now I expect you're going to ask me to join your Rebellion?" Frosta asked Adora. "You know about that?" Adora asked Frosta. "Of course I do. Princesses talk, you know?" Frosta said to Adora, as a guard showed up with food.
"The snow peas and the cookies are touching. Do it right." Frosta said to the guard. "Is this girl really that big a meanie?" Eevee asked Adora. "More or less." Bergmite said to Eevee, with a flat tune voice, as Adora kneeled down to Frosta. "Princess Frosta, the Rebellion needs you. Your kingdom is the largest and most powerful. Your alliance could be the key to defeating the Horde." Adora said to Frosta.
"The Horde hasn't threatened us here." Frosta said to Adora. "Only because the Kingdom of Snows. Is so out of the way it doesn't matter to Hordak right now. Joining the Rebellion is obviously your best bet." Adora said to Frosta. "The Kingdom of Snows has defended itself perfectly well for thousands of years. We do not need your help or your Rebellion." Frosta said to Adora.
"Please continue to enjoy the Ball." Frosta said to Adora, before leaving with Bergmite and some guards. "Well that could have gone better." Eevee said to Adora.
Meanwhile, Bow was chatting and having a good time, with a group of people, with Perfuma, Mermista, Sea Hawk, Netossa, Spinnerella and all of their Pokemon in the group. "Perfuma was just telling me about a winged horse that ate all the apples in Plumeria!" Bow said to everyone, with Glimmer watching him from a coat on an upper level, with Ralts with her.
Then Adora and Eevee took a seat next to Adora. "Where have you been?" Glimmer asked Adora and Eevee. "I told you, winning over Frosta. Actually, scratch that. Failing to win over Frosta. Where's Noah and Popplio?" Adora asked Glimmer. "Noah's watching Popplio having fun on the dance floor." Ralts said to Adora, pointing to Noah and Popplio, with Popplio jumping around Noah, as Noah moved a little, and Popplio started to sing.
"Come with me, it's time to go. See the light begin to show. I can feel it. And adventures waiting for us." Popplio sang, as she jumped onto Noah's shoulders. "That's how this begins for me and you." Popplio sang, hugging Noah's head, making people awh.
"It's shining, so bright it could wash away our past. Even in the pouring rain." Popplio sang before blowing out some bubbles, and taking them out with Aqua jet, making it rain a little. Then Popplio laned in front of Noah.
"Stoming, shouting through the pain. "Make them hear us. Then we'll see just who's the loudest." Popplio sang, as everyone started to stomp the floor. "Keep singing without the sun." Popplio sang, and she made a bubble and Noah popped it.
"Cause I know through your voice through my voice. Together we sing as one." Popplio sang, as Noah picked her up. "The day you found me I could feel somebody see me. The day you found me was the day I knew I'd see you too." Popplio sang, as Noah and her hugged each other, with the crowd around them awhing at them.
"Now when we meet. I know that we see eye to eye. Laughter speaking things our words could never." Popplio sang, as Noah put her down. "We're still a long way from where we must go. But I could spend all my life here if it's with you." Popplio sang, as she and Noah moved side to side.
"It's you and me." Popplio sang, pointing to Noah. "It's you and me." Noah sang, pointing to Popplio. "We're here and side by side." Popplio sang as she moved to Noah's side. "My soul cries out. This is where I want to be now." Popplio sang, as she fired some bubbles and a Disarming Voice to pop them, making it sparkle.
"Now I see the light like it's meant to be. Every reason why you're meant to shine on with me." Popplio sang, as she and Noah danced in the sparkles. "It's you and me." Popplio sang, pointing to Noah. "It's you and me." Noah sang, pointing to Popplio. "We're here on our journey." Popplio sang, as they moved around the dance floor.
"And now they've got the world's greatest seats. We'll show them all this time." Popplio sang, as she fired some bubbles, then fired a Disarming voice, popping all the bubbles, making it rain sparkles. Then Popplio used Aqua Jet, and gathered the sparkles in her water, making her look like a comet. Then the people started to clap and woo.
Popplio then landed on a table. "Oh yeah! Yeah!" Popplio sang, with people and Pokemon saying yeah. "Let's go." Popplio sang, before jumping off the table. "We're still a long way from where we must go. But I could spend all my life here if it's with you." Popplio sang, as she and Noah suffled threw the dance floor.
"It's you and me." Popplio sang, pointing to Noah. "It's you and me." Noah sang, pointing to Popplio. "We're here and side by side. My soul cries out. This is where I want to be now." Poppio sang as she jumped onto Noah's head.
Popplio then fired more bubbles and another Disarming Voice, making them sparkle. "Now I see the light. Like it's meant to be. Every reason why you're meant to shine on with me." Popplio sang, before jumping off Noah and landing in front of Noah. "It's you and me." Popplio sang, pointing to Noah. "It's you and me." Noah sang, pointing to Popplio.
"We're here on our journey. And now they've got the world's greatest seats. We'll show them all this time!" Popplio sang, before flying around in Aqua Jet, making patterns in the sky, and the people and Pokemon clap and woo.
Popplio then landed in Noah's arms. "I need you, I need you to know it's you and me this time!" Popplio sang, as Noah started to spin around, with Popplio in his arms, with people and Pokemon still clapping and wooing.
"That's how this begins for me and you. That's how this begins for me and you." Popplio sang, as Noah stopped spinning. "Oh yeah! Yeah! Let's go!" Popplio sang, before jumping onto Noah's head, and pointing into a random deaction. Popplio then bowed to everyone, signaling that she was over, and everyone applauded.
"Did you like my song daddy?" Popplio asked Noah, as Noah pulled her off his head, and held her in his arms. "You always make things cheerful." Noah said to Popplio. Popplio then nuzzled Noah. "Popplio, not in public." Noah said to Popplio, laughing, and not trying to stop her.
"Well at least they're having some fun. And a few minutes ago he was complaining about being here." Eevee said to everyone. "As for Glimmer." Ralts said to Adora, before Adora noticed Glimmer looking over the railing. "Are you okay?" Adora asked Glimmer.
That's when Ralts pointed down, making Adora look down and see Bow having a good time. "Why does it bother you so much?" Adora asked Glimmer. "It doesn't Bow can hang out with whoever he wants. I just…" Glimmer said to Adora, before goraning.
"I never had that many friends, okay? It's always just been me and Bow. But now, what if he likes his new friends better than me? What if everyone does?" Glimmer asked everyone.
"That's not gonna happen, Glimmer. Trust me, Bow isn't the type to just leave his old friends behind, and neither am…" Adora said to Glimmer, but stopped when she saw Scorpia, Catra, and their Pokemon walk into the ballroom, with Catra holding Scorpia's arms. "I." Adora said, finishing her sentence.
As Scorpia, Catra, and their Pokemon walked and grated Frosta, Asher, and their Pokemon, Adora, Glimmer, and their Pokemon ran up to all of them. "Revered hostess, you can't let them in. They're from the Horde." Adora said to Frosta, making Catra smirk.
"Revered Hostess, Princess Scorpia was invited as per the rules of this Ball. Rules which I personally have the utmost respect for." Catra said to Frosta. "Princess Scorpia?" Eevee asked. "Yeah, we were shocked too. But you should know it's rude to ask that here, hatchling." Purrloin said to Eevee, with a mocking tune. "Don't talk to her like that. And you do not!" Adora said to Purrloin and Catra.
"Princess Adora. The rules state clearly that all princesses and their chosen guests are welcome." Frosta said to Adora. "They're up to something, I can feel it. You have to-" Adora said to Frosta, but Frosta interrupted her.
"That's enough! You look at me and see a child, but I have worked too hard to gain respect, only to throw it away because you feel they're up to something. For centuries, the All-Princess Ball has been neutral ground. I will not dishonor that legacy. Scorpia is a princess. Princesses get plus ones. They stay." Frosta said to Adora, with a commanding voice.
Adora hmmth at her words. That's when a guard grabbed Adora and Glimmer and tossed them down the stairs, then the guard kicked Ralts and Eevee down the stairs. "You didn't have to be so rough with them." Asher said to the guard. The guard said nothing and walked away, and that's when Adora noticed the guard smirking at them.
"Teenagers." Frosta said. "You invited their enemies. It would be strange if they didn't act aggressively around them." Asher said to Frosta, as Catra, Scorpia, and their Pokemon walked to Adora.
"Really, Adora? I'm shocked. We're not breaking any rules. Didn't you read the invite?" Catra asked Adora. "I know you're plotting something. From now to the second the ball ends, I'll be watching. Wherever the four of you go, I go." Adora said to Catra.
"You really have a crazy partner hatchling." Purrloin said to Eevee. "Well, Adora, you heard her. Have fun with following us if you're that crazy!" Catra said to Adora, as she and Purrloin walked one way, and Scorpia and Stufful walked another way.
"Glimmer, you and Ralts get Scorpia and Stufful, me and Eevee will take Catra and Purrloin." Adora said to everyone, before they split, with Glimmer and Ralts teleporting away. Adora and Eevee found Catra and Purrloin on the dance floor.
That's when Adora felt something tapping her shoulder, she turned around and saw Noah and Popplio next to her. "Oh, Noah it's you." Adora said to Noah. "I see Catra, Scorpia, and their pokemon are here." Noah said to Adora. "We know. I tried to warn Frosta, but she wouldn't listen. We have to keep an eye on them." Adora said to Noah.
"But shouldn't we keep our distance? You're looking like a crazy person." Noah said Adora. "Nonsense. Let's go." Adora said to Noah, before going after Catra. Noah sighed and followed Adora with Eevee and Popplio.
That's when they followed Catra and Purrloin to a trash can, and saw Catra put something in the trash. Adora then shoved a woman, running to the trash can, and started to dig in it, making the crowd gasp. After a few seconds of digging, Adora found what Catra put in it. And it was a note that said "Hi Adora". This made Adora sigh.
"Ah Adora." Noah said to Adora, getting Adora's attention, and making Adora notice people looking at her. Adora chuckled and noticed Catra walking to Entrapta and Klink. Adora then started to go after Catra, and Noah, Eevee, and Popplio started to follow her.
Meanwhile Glimmer was watching Scorpia and Stufful at the buffet eating everything they could get their hands on. But Glimmer attention was diverted to Bow and Rowlet, who walked past her. And with Scorpia and Stufful just eating, Glimmer decided to leave, with Ralts staying to keep an eye on Scorpia and Stufful, and annoyed that Glimmer left.
"Bow! Wait up!" Glimmer said to Bow. "Glimmer. Hi." Bow said to Glimmer. "There's something I need to tell you. I know things between us have been weird all night. So, I just wanted to say-" Glimmer said to Bow, but Bow interrupted her. "It's all right. I accept your-" Bow said to Glimmer, grabbing her hands, but Glimmer interrupted him this time. "I forgive you." Glimmer said to Bow.
This surprised both of them. "You forgive me? Glimmer, I'm allowed to hang out with other people." Bow said to Glimmer. "Bow, don't you see? That's how it starts! Then suddenly everyone has new friends and nobody needs me anymore, and then I'm all alone!" Glimmer said to Bow, rubbing Bow's hand.
"What are you talking about? You have me, pulse Adora, Noah, Ralts, and everyone who joined the Rebellion." Bow said to Glimmer. "That's what I'm talking about!it used to be the two of us, and now everything's changing! I don't want you to leave me behind." Glimmer said to Bow.
"No one is leaving you behind. I wanted to hang out with You and Adora and Noah and Perfuman and our Pokemon tonight, but you're the one who keeps being wired and leaving. I know change is scary, Glimmer, but you don't get to take it out on me. Now, if you excuse me, I'm going to get my cummerbund, because it's freezing in here. We'll talk later, okay?" Bow asked Glimmer, before walking away. "You know it might not be freezing if you didn't rip off the stomach and the sleeves off your jacket." Rowlet said to Bow.
Once they were gone, Glimmer cired. That's when Ralts teleported onto her shoulders, covered in pie goo and pie crust. "Sorry to be a mess, but Scorpia dropped a pie on me, on purpose, I'm sure. And after I cleaned myself up a little, Scorpia and Stufful were gone." Ralts said to Glimmer, making Glimmer gasp and turn to see that Ralts was right, Scorpia and Stufful were gone. Ralts and Glimmer then turned their heads around to try and find Scorpia and Stufful.
With Adora, Noah, Eevee, and Popplio, they saw Catra and Purrloin walking up to Entrapta and Klink, with Entrapta sitting on a ledge overlooking the party, goggles over her eyes. "Princess Prom. Hour two…" Entrapa said, as she leaned forward. That's when they noticed Catra holding a hand out and near Entrapta.
"Don't touch her!" Adora said to Catra, as she rushed to Catra. But that's when Entrapta fell over, and Catra caught her. "You're right. This is a much better vantage point for my observations." Entrapta said to Catra and Purrloin. "Glad we could help." Purrloin said to Entrapta.
"Hi, Adora, Noah, Eevee, and Popplio. Have you met my new assistants? They brought snakes." Entrapta said to everyone. "She stole our food, and then asked us to spy on people with her. Is this what love feels like?" Catra asked everyone. Adora gave Catra a mean look, and took Entrapta away.
After taking a few steps away from Catra and Purrloin, Adora stopped. "Entrapta, she and her Pokemon are from the Horde." Adora said to Entrapta. Entrapta said nothing and made no reaction. "The people the Rebellion are fighting? The Rebellion you're part of." Adora said to Entrapta, getting a little frustrated with Entrapta.
"Oh. Well, in that case, we should keep a better eye on them. They just walked away." Entrapta said to everyone, as she pointed to the spot where Catra and Purrloin were, with them not there any more. Adora then groaned. "Is she always like this?" Noah asked Adora. "More or less." Adora said to Noah.
Meanwhile Bow and Rowlet were walking through a hallway, and noticed Scopria putting something on a pillar, and Stufful putting something on the wall. Once Scorpia and Stufful left, Bow and Rowlet moved to the pillar, and noticed a smoking red gem on the pillar.
"Is that a?" Bow said before gasping. "Oh, no!" Bow said, before running. "What!? What's wrong?!" Rowlet asked Bow, following Bow. Bow ran into three guards. "Princess Scorpia is planting hear bombs! We have to stop her!" Bow said to the guards. "Don't worry about that. We got it covered." A guard said to Bow, with a female voice, before pulling out a shock pistol, shooting Bow and Rowlet, knocking them out.
That's when Scorpia came walking up with Adora's sword. "You four take them away." The guard said to the other guard, before walking into the ballroom. That's when a Nickit and Poochyena came out of the guards coats, and started to help drag Bow and Rowlet away, with Scorpia giving the swords to the guard.
Back in the ballroom Adora, Noah, Eevee, and Popplio were looking for Catra and Purrloin. They noticed Catra and Purrloin walking to the dance floor. But before they could do anything, the lights dimmed and a spot light appeared on Frosta.
"It is my solemn duty as hostess to now announce, it is time for the first major dance of the ball." Frosta said to everyone, making the crowd cheer, and flooded the dance floor, dragging Adora and Noah onto the dance floor, leaving their Pokemon.
When Adora and Noah broke free of the crowd, Noah found himself as Glimmer's dance partner, and Adora found she was Catra's dance partner. Adora didn't like it, but she started to dance with Catra. "I don't know about you, but I am having a blast." Catra said to Adora, while they danced.
"Whatever it is you're planning, it won't work." Adora said to Catra. "You sure? Clearly you haven't met my new friend. She's a lot smarter than you." Catra said to Adora, before trading partners.
That's when Glimmer was Adora's partner. "I got into a fight with Bow, and he won't wanna be friends with me anymore, Noah said I'm overreacting but I know I'm not. And I don't know where Scorpia is!" Glimmer said to Adora.
"What? Glimmer, dont-." Adora said to Glimmer, before stopping with everyone trading partners. "Have you seen Bow? He went to get his cummerbund, with Rowlet, but that was a while ago. Right about the same time that Horde Princess left." Perfuma asked Adora, as they danced. "Wait, do you mean Scorpia?" Adora asked Perfuma, before changing partners.
"Glimmer, when did you last see Bow?" Adora asked Glimmer, as Glimmer became her partner again. "A while ago. Isn't he with Perfuma?" Glimmer asked Adora, still upset. "No. Perfuma says he and Rowlet have been gone this entire time." Adora said to Glimmer, before caching partners.
With Noah becoming Adora's partner. "Adora somethings wrong, there's a nasty feeling in the air." Noah said to Adora. "Glad I'm not the only one feeling it." Adora said to Noah, before changing partners.
This time it was Catra again. "Maybe our plan won't work. But then again…" Catra said to Adora, before dipping Adora, and the light on them turned red. "Maybe it already has." Catra said to Adora, before pulling her up. "Say, where's your friend Bow? And his Pokemon, Rowlet?" Catra asked Adora, scaring Adora a little.
But that fear passed, and Adora got angry, and tackled Catra, ramming Catra into an ice sculpture, and interrupting the dance, much to Frosta's anyone. "What did you do to him?" Adora asked Catra. "Nothing permanent." Catra said to Adora, laughing a little. This made Adora grab her, freaking out the guest.
"Tell me what you did with him-." Adora asked Catra, but was interrupted by ice forming between her and Catra. Then iced formed around Adora. "Adora!" Eevee said, as she tried to move to Adora, with Popplio following her. But Noah stopped them.
The reason, Frosta was looking at Adora with an angry look on her face. "Revered Hostess, she's got-." Adora said to Frosta, but Frosta interrupted her. "Princess Ball is a ceremony of unity. Violence is strictly forbidden." Frosta said to Adora. "You don't understand." Adora said to Forsta. "I understand perfectly. As hostess, in accordance with the rules set down over the centuries, I hereby revoke your invitation.
Then a guard moved to Frosta's side. "You are to leave my kingdom and never, ever-." Frosta said to Adora, but the guard then pulled out a shock baton and rammed it into Frostas' gut, shocking her with a lot of voltage. "Frosta!" Adora said, as Frosta fell to the floor, hurt by the betrayal and the shock baton.
The guards started to charge at the traitor guard. That's when the traitor guard pulled out a detonator and pressed it, making some explosions. The explosions made holes in the walls and ceiling. Then people dressed up in bandit outfits came swarming in. As some of them fought off the guards, the rest started to take whatever they could get their hands on, making the guests panic.
"Take all you want Boy and Girl. it's all on the house." The traitor guard said, with a female voice. "What are you doing? This is an act of treason and running my Princess Prom." Frosta said to the guard. "That's the point, and it's only treason if I was on your side." The guard said to Frosta, before taking off her hemelt, revealing Chloe under it, while she still had her bandana on.
"You know. Your silly Ball rules made it too easy to plan this. And your city defenses were a joke. You know what they say. Like taking candy from a baby. Or in this case, running a brats stupid party." Chloe said to Frosta, before kicking Frosta in the gut, forcing her back to Asher, Noivern, Samurott and Bermite.
"What are the Horde doing here?" Adora asked Chloe, as the guest conuntied to panic, the place started to fall apart, and stuff was stolen by the bandits. "This isn't the Horde's doing. This is all us Outcasts doing. But I'm sure the Horde will reward us after learning we ruined your night. Though you seem to be doing a good job at that all by yourself." Chloe said to Adora, bangging on Adora's ice.
"Chloe, how can you work for the Horde? You know they want to destroy the World?" Adora asked Chloe. "You think I care about the Horde, or this world? I could care less of either of them." Chloe said to Adora. "If that's the case, then why do you work for them?" Noah asked Chloe, making Chloe turn to him, and making her notice Popplio and Eevee not that far away from her. "To make people like them hurt! Just like they hurt me!" Chloe said to Noah, pointing to all the guesses of the Ball. But this caught Adora and Noah off guard.
"What?" They both asked Chloe. "People like them are sufless and curle, doing whatever they want, not caring about others. Hurting people for fun." Chloe said to them. "And how have they hurt you?" Noah asked Chloe. Chloe said nothing and took off her bandana, revealing a very old gash wound that was now a nasty scar, it was above her left eye. "They ruined my life." Chloe said to Noah.
"How could they ruin your life? None of these people did anything to you." Adora said to Chloe. "Maybe not them. But people just like them." Chloe said to Adora. "What are you talking about?" Adora asked Chloe. Chloe's eyes moved to the side, and noticed Catra signaling her to stall. "Very well. Allow me to tell you a story. My story." Chloe said to Adora, putting her bandana back on.
"My oldest memory is of my father leaving me and my mother, for a woman who was rich and prettier than my mother. My mother blamed me for this, that I was the reason she wasn't pretty any more, and saying it was my fault we didn't have enough money. With nothing but the clothes on my back. My mother drove me to a run down orphanage, and tossed me out of the car, like I was a piece of trash. And that was the last time I saw her. I spent the next few years watching as kids come and go from the orphanage, believing I was nothing but a mistake." Chleo said to everyone, before walking over where the band was.
"But then I found hope. When I was young, I saw my first violinist, and saw how she changed how the world felt, through her songs. I want to be just like her. But I had no money for a violin or lessons. So I got creative. I went to the city dump, and dug around in the trash looking for one that was thrown away. After a couple days of searching I found one, it was pretty beat up, so I spent weeks in the dump looking for parts to fix it, and I did. I then practiced with it. I practiced for months, and I thought I was ready. So when an audition opened up I was so happy." Chleo said to everyone, pulling a violin that was left behind.
"But it was never meant to be." Chloe said, before tossing the violin, breaking it on the floor. "On the way. I was in such a rush that I accidentally bumped into a high class girl, who was out with her friends. And while I was the one who fell to the ground. She was very upset with me, all because I touched her. She went on to yell at me. I said I was sorry, and I told her I had an audition. But she looked at me and laughed, telling me that a filthy little nobody like me with a piece of trash would amount to nothing." Chleo said to everyone, before walking to Adora, and resting an arm on the ice.
"The girl took my Violin out of my hands. I tried to get it back. But her friends held me back. I watched as she smashed the violin I made into pieces. Then her friends tossed me to the floor right in front of the broken pieces of my violin. The girl then stomped on them, laughing at me with her friends. All the while my dreams were shattering right before my eyes. Then she came up with a little fun idea. She told her friends that they should put me back where I belong. So they tossed me into some trash, and in doing so, cut my head against a piece of metal that was in the trash. Leaving this." Chloe said to everyone, tracing her fingers over her scar.
"After they left, I ran away with a broken heart. I ran until I was at the ocean. There I dropped to my knees and cried, all the while bleeding from my wound. I cried for a while. Then a man walked up to me. This man was a pirate captain with a Greninja, he saw my wound and took me to a hospital. There he told me that I owed him for paying my bills. I told him I had no money. But he had something different in mind." Chloe said to everyone, before pulling out a Pokeball.
"He wanted me to sneak onto a ship and trash the engines while they were at sea, and to help me, he gave me a Froakie, the first form of Greninja. With Forakie's help I had no problem sneaking into the ship, and when the time was right, trashed their engine. With the engine trashed, the pirates had no trouble getting on board and taking all of their stuff. The captain was impressed by my work, and told me to take anything I wanted. While looking around I noticed the girl that smashed my violin in the group, and she noticed me." Chloe said to everyone, before walking over to a table and grabbing a fruit that was left on it.
"She begged, and said she was sorry for what she did. I knew she was lying. Then I forced her to the ground and said. "You stomped on my dreams, now it's time to feel what it's like to be stomped on." I said to the girl before stomping on her right hand, breaking it." Chloe said to everyone, before dropping the fruit and stomping on it, making a mess.
"I left her in pain, and stole her fancy necklace. It was when I knew what my new dream was. To bring pain and suffering to all people like her. And I knew just who to talk to about that. I then went up to the captain and asked him to join his crew. A few years later I was on a different pirate ship, and we attacked Noah's ship. And you know the rest." Chloe said to everyone.
"Chloe I'm sorry that all happened to you." Adora said to Chloe. "No you're not. You're as selfish as they are. Think only about yourself. Not of others." Chloe said to Adora. "That's not true." Adora said to Chloe. "Then why did you leave Catra behind? Didn't think she could be of help or use to you?" Chloe asked Adora, making Adora go quiet.
"That's what I thought. You and your Princess friends are all the same, nothing but selfies brats that only care about themselves and not of the pain and suffering you cause." Chleo said to Adora.
"What about all the pain the Horde causes for the people of the Rebellion? What about them?" Adora asked Chloe. "Should I feel pity for them? They choose to be Wooloo and follow their weak Princesses. So they will learn what following them really gets you. The hard way!" Chloe said to Adora, before running away.
That's when Asher helped Frosta up. "Remain calm! Stop!" Frosta said to everyone. "Frosta the guests are in a panic, the palace is falling apart, and these bandits are here to loot everything. None of them are going to stop!" Asher said to Frosta.
"Asher, help drive these bandits out. I'll take care of the palace." Forsta said to Asher, as she and Bergmite started to leave, with Bergmite moving at full force, knocking a bandit out of Frosta's way.
"Right. Samurott use Razor Shell, and Noivern use Iron Tail." Asher said, as he grabbed a Snows Ice theme spear that was on the ground, and used it to fight a bandit. "Right." Samurott and Noivern said, with deep commanding voices, with Noivern's voice deeper.
Samurrot then pulled out his shells from his front legs, and made water blades pop out of it, and started to slash through the bandits. With Noivern, his tail turned silver and rough, and he slammed his tail into bandits, sending the bandits flying into the walls.
Meanwhile Glimmer and Ralts were teleporting around, dodging bandits' attacks. But then a bandit was able to grab Glimmer and Ralts. But before the bandit could do anything, the bandit got knocked out. The one who knocked out the bandit was Mia, who was wielding a frying pan, and Dewgong.
"Glimmer, find your friends and get out of here." Mia said to Glimmer. "What about you and Dewgong?" Glimmer asked Mia. "Someone's gotta take care of these bandits." Mia said to Glimmer, as a Bandit rushed them. And without turning to look at the bandit, Mia was able to slam the frying pan into the bandit's face, knocking the bandit out.
"Go we got this." Mia said to Glimmer. Glimmer and Ralts nodded in agreement and teleported away. "Dewgong use Aqua Jet." Mia said to Dewgong, as she charged at the bandits. "Right." Dewgong said with a gentle female voice, before being encased in water, and charging at the bandits at high speed.
With Noah, Popplio, and Eevee, they were trying to break the ice, trying to get Adora out of it. "Gotta admit, Chloe is one heck of a woman. She came up with all of this pretty quickly." Catra said to everyone, getting their attention, and getting Noah, Popplio, and Eevee into a fighting stance. "Catra. What did you do?" Adora asked Catra, as Purrloin moved to Catra's side.
"I did nothing. And neither did Purrloin. Chloe planned most of this. Scorpia, Lonnie, Kyle, Stufful, Poochyena, and Nickit on the other hand, were very busy. It was fun distracting you all, though." Catra said to everyone, before she and Purrloin turned away from everyone and walked away. "This isn't a game! People are gonna get hurt." Adora said to Catra, making Catra stop and turn to Adora.
"You heard Chloe. Like you care about hurting people. And this has never been a game to me." Catra said to Adora, before lunging at them, making Noah, Popplio and Eevee jump out of the way of Catra's attack.
"I'm after something bigger, and no one is going to stop me." Catra said to Adora, before scratching the ice trapping Adora. "You seem to have forgotten us." Noah said to Catra, as he, Eevee, and Popplio got ready to attack Catra.
But before they could attack, an ice pillar came down, and crashed into the ice trapping Adora. Catra and Purrloin used the shattering ice to get away. Adora dug herself out from under the ice. Adora then ran after Catra. "Adora, wait! We need to find the others! Don't go after her!" Noah said to Adora, going after her.
With Glimmer and Ralts, they teleported themselves outside. "Bow? Rowlet? Bow! Where are you?" Glimmer said, before gasping, and saw Kyle, Lonnie, Nickit, and Poochyena dragging Bow and Rowlet to a scorpion ship. "Get away from him!" Glimmer said, as she and Ralts teleported.
They reappeared on Lonnie's chest, causing Lonnie to fall onto Poochyena, and then Glimmer fired a sparkle blast into Kyle's face, giving Ralts an opening. Ralts head glowed light blue and he rammed his head into Kyle, causing Kyle to fall onto Nickit.
With Lonnie, Kyle, Nickit, and Poochyena knocked down, they checked on Bow and Rowlet. But then Glimmer was stung by Scorpia knocking her out, and Stufful's arms glow black, and Swings wildly, Brutally sending Ralts into the ship, knocking Ralts out.
With Frosta and Bergmite, they were running into the inner part of the palace, but the whole place was shaking, making them stop. "We have to hurry! It feels like the whole palace is about to break apart!" Bergmite said to Frosta. "Right." Frosta said to Bergmite, as they got back to running.
Soon they reached an open chamber with a floating spikey white crystal in the middle of the chamber. Frosta then started to shout, channeling her magic into the crystal, with Bergmite watching her back incase of bandits showing up.
With Frosta's magic chanling into the crystal, the palace started to rebuild itself, and the bandits were slowly starting to surrender, with the guards, Mia, Asher, and the Pokemon able to knock out or capture the bandits that were still causing trouble. This awestrucked all the guesses.
With Adora, she was following Catra and Purrloin, with Noah, Eevee, and Popplio following her. "Adora. Let her go, we need to find the others. Then Catra and Purrloin ran into a dead end. "Ha. Trapped." Adora said to Catra and Purrloin, as Noah, Eevee, and Popplio reached her.
Then a piece of the ceiling started to move up. "You wish." Catra said to Adora, as she and Purrloin used their cat climbing skills to jump onto the piece of the ceiling. Adora then noticed a hole in the nearby and pieces moving up outside, and then ran to a hole.
"Adora, wait!" Noah said to Adora, before Adora jumped out the hole and into a floating piece. Noah huffed and jumped out a hole with Eevee and Popplio, landing on another piece that was floating up.
When Adora, Noah, Eevee, and Popplio reached the top, they saw Catra and Purrloin waiting for them, and to their surprise, Chloe was waiting for them as well. Adora charged at them, but Chloe fired a shot from her pistol at Adora's feet, making Adora's stop.
"Now, now. Let's not get hasty here, after all one wrong move, and we'll fall to a painful end." Chloe said to Adora. "I don't care, I'll take you both with me." Adora said to Chloe, as she charged at Chloe and Catra. But Noah and Eevee stopped her, by grabbing. "Adora stop!" Noah said to Adora, holding her back. "No, I have to stop them." Adora said to Noah, trying to break free.
"Chloe, Catra give us our friends back." Popplio said to Chloe and Catra. "You're in no position to give demands. But if you want your friends back. We'll settle this like we do back home." Chloe said to everyone. "And that is?" Adora asked Chloe, as she calmed down, and Noah and Eevee let her go.
"A Pokemon battle. Me and Catra vs you and Noah. each using one Pokemon. The first side that loses both Pokemon loses. And if you win we give you your friends back." Chloe said to Adora. "Like we can trust you." Adora said to Chloe. "Fair enough. But this may be the only way you get to leave Snows with your friends." Chloe said to Adora, putting her pistol away.
Adora didn't know what to say. "Your own. For the rest of the Best Friend Squad. We'll win." Noah said to Chloe. "Best Friend Squad." Chloe said, before she, Catra, Purrloin, and another voice started to laugh.
"Is that what you call your group? Well us Outcasts will gladly face you." Chloe said to everyone, before taking off her guard coat, letting Oshawott out of the coat, and revealing her dark blue dress with a wavy pattern, and it going over her right shoulder. And also Chloe's right shoulder was a small blue ocean theme bag.
Noah was taken aback by Chloe's look for a few seconds before shaking his head and getting ready to fight. But Chloe noticed Noah staring at her for a second, as Adora moved to Noah's side, and Eevee and Popplio got in front of them. "Oh you like what you see. I stole this dress and bag not that long ago from a party ship I raided." Chloe said to Noah, as Catra moved to her side, and Purrloin and Oshawott got in front of them.
"No, I don't like what I see." Noah said to Chloe. "Now that hurts my feelings. After all the work I put in getting ready for tonight." Chloe said to Noah. "Make him pay for hurting Chloe's feelings. Purrloin, use Fury Swipe on Popplio." Catra said to Purrloin. "As you wish." Purrloin said, as her claws became long and glowed white.
"Eevee use Protect." Adora asid to Eevee. "Right." Eevee said, as she formed a green bubble around her and Popplio. Purrloin then started to swipe the bubble, but the Bubble was not popping.
"While they're trapped. Use Sword Dance." Chloe said to Oshawott. "Right." Oshawott said, as he raised his shell into the air, making four swords appeared around him. The swords spinned around Oshawott making him glow red.
"Not good. Popplio use Bubble Beam." Noah said to Popplio. "Right." Popplio said, as the bubble went down, and she fired a steam off bubble, knocking Purrloin back. Then the bubble headed to Oshawott.
"Oshawott use Slash." Chloe said to Oshawott. "Like it'll need to wave my shell around to pop some bubbles." Oshawott said, as he held out his shell, as a white blade came out of it. Oswhawott stood still, and his blade popped the bubbles.
"Purrloin use Hone Claws." Catra said to Purrloin. "You got it." Purrloin said, scratching the floor, sharpening her claws, leaving scratch marks, and glowing red. That's when Popplio stopped firing bubbles. "They're getting stronger, we need to stop them and fast. Popplio use Aqua Jet." Noah said to Popplio. "And Eevee use Quick Attack." Adora said to Eevee.
"Right." Popplio and Eevee said, as Eevee glowed white, and Popplio became encased in Water. Then they moved at Purrloin and Oshawott at high speed. "Dodge and use Slash/Scratch." Chloe and Catra said to Oshawott and Purrloin. "You got it." Oshawott and Purrloin, as a white small blade popped out of his shell, and small glowing white claws came out of her paw.
Purrloin and Oshawott doged Eevee and Popplio's attack, and landed a hit on Popplio and Eevee, dealing some damage, and sending them back. "Purrloin use Fury Swipe." Catra said to Purrloin. "And Oshawott use Tackle." Chloe said to Oshawott. "As you wish." Purrloin and Oshawott, as they charged at Eevee and Popplio, with Purrloin having long white claws in her paws.
"Popplio, push them back with Disarming Voice." Noah said to Popplio. "Eevee help Popplio with Helping Hand." Adora said to Eevee. "Right." Eevee said, glowing white, and placing a paw on Popplio. This made Popplio glow white. "I feel great. NOW GET BACK!" Popplio said, before firing a sonic wave with pink hearts.
The sound wave hit Purrloin and Oshawott, sending them flying back, and with that moving being fairy type, and powered up by Helping hand, Purrloin took a lot of damage, and laid on the ground, with Oshawott next to her. "Looks like we did it." Eevee said to everyone, as she took her paw off Popplio.
"I'm not done yet, Hatchlings." Oshawott said, as he got up. "Oshawott use Aqua Jet." Chloe said to Oshawott. "Right." Oshawott said, as encased himself in water, and moved around at high speed. "Dodge it." Adora and Noah said to Eevee and Popplio. "On it." Eevee and Popplio said, as they started to jump around, dodging Oshawott attacks
As they dodged Oshawott's attack, they got close to the laying purrloin. "Purrloin use Sand Attack." Catra said to Purrloin. Purrloin then jumped up and tossed sand into Popplio and Eevee's eyes. This made Popplio and Eevee rub their eyes, and gave Oshawott to hit Eevee and Popplio.
This sent Eevee and Popplio flying back to Adora and Noah. "Eevee, Popplio, are you two okay?!" Adora asked them. "More or less." Eevee said, as they got up, and rubbed their eyes. "These hatchlings sure are something." Purrloin said to Oshawott. "Maybe so, but they still can't win." Oshawott said to Purrloin.
"You got that right. Use Aqua Jet again." Chloe said to Oshawott. "Right." Oshawott said, as he encased himself in water and flew into the sky. "Purrloin use Fury Swipe." Catra said to Purrloin. "With pleasure." Purrloin said, as her long claws became long and glowed white. Oshawott and Purrloin then charged
"Eevee use Quick Attack to counter." Adora said to Eevee. "Speed don't fall me now." Eevee said, as she glowed white and ran at high speed. "And Popplio use Aqua Jet to counter." Noah said to Popplio. "You got it." Popplio said, as she encased herself in water and flew into the sky.
While Oshawott and Popplio clashed in the sky, Eevee was moving around Purrloin, hitting Purrloin, and getting a few scratches from Purrloin's claws. This went on for a few seconds. When it was over, both sides moved to their trainers' sides, huffing a little from exhaustion.
"Oshawott? Purrloin, I have to ask why are you two willing to work with the Horde? You two seem like strong fighters. And your Pokemon. Your good creatures. Why would you two work for people that cause so much destruction?" Adora asked Oshawott and Purrloin.
"Because Chloe is right. I was the Pokemon to a middle-high class family. I was going to be one of their guards. And I thought we cared about each other. But when a person came offering money for me. They didn't even think twice about it and soled me like I was nothing to them." Oshawott said to Adora. "Oshawott." Popplio said to Oshawott, feeling sorry for him.
"As for me. I was the housecat of a loving high class family. But when time got tough they had to leave. They abandoned me. And not by accident. They told me that they couldn't take care of me and dumped me off in the middle of nowhere. I had never lived in the wild, I was terrified, and struggled for a long time. Then I got captured by hunters and locked in a cage. The hunters use me for enetermanet, throwing me into matches. I had to learn to fight in terrible matches to eat every night." Purrloin said to Adora. "Purrloin." Eevee said to Purrloin, feeling sorry for her.
"You asked, why did we join the Horde? It's because we want pay back. People like your friends got rid of us, in one form or another, for money. And it's not just us. Many Pokemon that joined the Horde have been cast out by people or Pokemon, For one reason or another." Oshawott said to Aodra.
"Enough talk. Oshawott use Sword Dance." Chloe said to Oshawott. "With pleasure." Oshawott said, as he held his shell up, and swords spined around him, making him glow red. "Purrloin use Hone Claws." Catra said to Purrloin. "You got it." Purrloin said, as her claws popped out of her paws, and she scratched the floor, sharpening her claws, and leaving scratch marks, making her glow red.
"Popplio use Bubble Beam and forces them back." Noah said to Popplio. "Okay." Popplio said, as she fired a stream of bubbles from her nose. "Eevee help Popplio with Swift." Adora said to Eevee. "You got it." Eevee said, as she whipped yellow stars from her tail.
"Oshawott cut those stars with Slash." Chloe said to Oshawott. "And pop those bubbles with Fury Swipe." Catra said to Purrloin. "Gladly." Oshawott and Purrloin said, as Oshawott's shell popped out a small white blade, and Purrloins claws became long and glowed white.
Oshawott then slashed the stars, and Purrloin started to swipe the bubble. This made them sparkle with yellow and blue sparkles. "Now that you made us look good. Use Slash again." Chloe said to Oshawott. "And Purrloin use Fury Swipe." Catra said to Purrloin. "Gladly." Oshawott and Purrloin said, as they charged Popplio and Eevee.
"Popplio force them back with another Disarming Voice." Noah said to Popplio. "And power her up with Helping Hand." Adora said to Eevee. "Right." Eevee said, as she glowed white and placed a paw on Popplio, making Popplio glow white. "ON IT!" Popplio yelled, firing a sonic pulse with pink hearts. The sonic pulse hit Purrloin and Oshawott, stopping their attacks and forcing them back.
This made Oshawott and Purrloin paint, as they gave mean looks to Popplio and Eevee, as Eevee removed her paw from Popplio. "Okay one more attack so do it. Popplio use Disarming Voice again." Noah said to Popplio. "And Eevee use Helping Hand." Adora said to Eevee. "Right." Eevee said, as she glowed white, and placed a paw on Popplio, making Popplio glow white.
But before Popplio could say anything, Purrloin ran up to Popplio, whipping her with her tail, breaking the white glow around Popplio. That's when Oshawott disappeared. Then Oshawott appeared in between Purrloin, and Popplio and Eevee, and slashed his shell at them, knocking them back.
"What was that?" Adora asked, as Eevee and Popplio weakly got up. "That was two new attacks. Purrloin learned Fake Out, a move that stuns our opponent for a few seconds. And Oshawott learned Aerial Ace, a move that makes the Pokemon disappear, then reappear close to the target, with no time to react, the target always gets hit. This means Purrloin can stun you, and Oshawott can finish you." Chloe said to Adora, Noah, Popplio, and Eevee.
"Oh I like this." Catra said. "Just when I thought the four of us couldn't be a better team than you and me, Adora." Catra said to Adora, smirking at her, making Adora mad. "We haven't lost yet." Adora said to Catra.
"Are you sure? Finish them use Fake Out." Catra asked Adora, and said to Purrloin. "And Oshawott use Aerial Ace." Chloe said to Oshawott. "With pleasure." Purrloin and Oshawott said, as Purrloin ran up to everyone, whipping her tail into Popplio and Eevee's faces, stunning them.
Then Oshawott disappeared and reappeared right in front of Popplio and Eevee. Oshawott then slashed Popplio and Eevee, making them scream and sending them flying, much to Adora and Noah's dismay.
They then crash landed right in front of Noah and Adora. That's when Noah and Adora noticed Eevee and Popplio's eyes were swirls. "Eevee! Popplio!" Adora said, as she kneeled down to them.
That's when Noah noticed Chloe pull out her pistol and aimed it at Adora. "NO!" Noah said, getting in front of Adora, Eevee, and Popplio, taking the shots from the pistol, getting knocked out. "NOAH!" Aodra yelled, as she watched Noah fall to the ground.
That's when Chloe pulled out a small can with a button on it, pressed the button and threw it. The can landed near Adora, and before Adora could react, it let out a blinding white light and a bang. This made Adora only see white and her ears rang.
A few seconds later, when Adora's eyes and ears went back to normal, she saw Catra, Chloe, Purrloin, and Oshawott enter the scorpion ship, dragging Noah into it. Once they were in, the door closed and it turned around to show Kyle, Lonnie, Scorpia, Nickit, Poochyena, and Stufful in the scorpion ship, with Scorpia driving.
That's when Adora gasped, noticing that they had Bow, Glimmer, Noah, Ralts, Rowlet, and her sword. "You know what they say, friends are a real treasure. And us pirates love to take treasures." Chloe said to Adora, as she and Catra laughed at Adora, putting their arms around Bow, Glimmer, Noah, Ralts, and Rowlet.
"See you later, princess." Catra said to Adora, before the ship took off, leaving Adora alone with a knocked out Eevee and Popplio, and Adora on the edge of breaking out in tears.
Hello everyone please like, follow, or review if you like this story. Now I hope you all like the badness that is Chloe. And felt sorry for her after learning what she's been through. I also hope you like the rematch of Eevee and Popplio VS Purrloin and Oshawott. I spent a long time thinking about how I wanted it to go. I'm sorry if you're upset that Eevee and Popplio lost, but it makes sense that they lost this one. Let's just hope they do better next time. Oh, and I don't own the song Popplio sang "Arcadia" by Bump of Chicken.
