Chapter 5
"Plots Unleashed."

Sorry this took so long to get out, but unfortunately, life interfered.
Disclaimer: Pokémon is not mine. I just write about it!
Lyra, Merlin, and Maria, under the guises of Susan, John and Kristi, walked out of the hospital and into the bright sunlight. Merlin threw up one of his hands to block the glare, having lost his sunglasses.
The three looked around, then started making their way towards Goldenrod City, where they were going to meet up with a few 'friends', or so Merlin said. On the way, they talked, unawares of what was going on, and how much danger the world was going to be in.
Deep under the sea, she slept.
Something passed by overhead.
It whistled. The music reached her ears.
Soon, all would be chaos?
Chaos must be prevented.
She awoke.
Giovanni chuckled evilly as the texts came back to him. They'd procured the world's most powerful missles. He didn't know how they'd done it, but they had.
And all the better for him.
"Procure a cruiser, and set a course for the Legendary Ring. Take helicopters, figher planes, and...the missles." he ordered.
"As you wish, sir."
The three travellers made their way to Goldenrod without any problems, and as Maria took Lyra off to educate her on the wiles of Department Stores, Merlin walked into the underground path, into a series of secret chambers. He was careful to avoid the gaze of the various vendors that had set up shop in the damp darkened area (he couldn't imagine why in the world barbers would set up shop underneath those flickering lights.) He slipped into a back chamber and came face to face with his friends.
His old gang.
In a city of rather large size, boasted as the largest in Johto, which it was, gangs were an added feature. Merlin's old gang, the Holders of Magic, were an odd bunch, but he trusted each and every one with his life. They numbered few, but they were tough fighters all--them and their Pokemon.
There were Dragon--a boy with fierce eyes and strange, messy green hair...Phoenix, an even fiercer girl with red eyes and orangey hair..and still others. Each one had the name of a magical creature or a famous wizard.
"Merlin! You're back!" Unicorn said. A younger girl with soft blonde hair that betrayed just how lethal she was, she was the most optimistic and cheerful of the group. Merlin smiled at her and said, "Yes, but we need help."
"Who's in trouble?" Phoenix asked.
"A group of people that live inside the Legendary Ring. Giovanni is going to try and tear it down with great force.
"Inside...!" Dragon muttered.
"Yeah, Drac, inside." Merlin said, using Dragon's nickname. The fierce boy seemed to think for a moment.
"Well, we'll just have to help defeat Giovanni using our wits." another gang member said.
"Right on!" Unicorn exclaimed.
"So you're with me?" Merlin asked.
"Definately!"
"All the way."
Merlin was happy. It wasn't looking so hopeless after all.
She drifted up out of the water, shaking the clinging droplets off of her fur, and faced the golden one.
"There is danger..." he said quietly.
" I know it." she replied evenly.
"There might still be chaos..."
"I know it, my brother. Rouse the others." she told him. For all that he was so powerful, he was so young.
"Yes, my sister." he said. With one great dip of his beautifully colored wings, he was away through the sky.
Giovanni surveyed the progress of the team...perfect...they'd be there before long...and...
Kaboom.
If he didn't get the Legendary Ring open, he'd simply destroy the world.
To be continued...
