Thank you for reviewing! Chappy up. And I think that in this series,
there are 30 chapters. ^^;;
Normal disclaimer applies. Only thing that's truly mine is Aquafire. Ok? Ok.

"There's the cave where we hid the others!" I said, panting from all of the running.
"It's about time," said Rokon, who was running beside me. "I miss Blade."
I gave her a sly little look, but didn't say anything.
The three of us crawled inside the cave. It was actually pretty roomy for an underground cave. It was actually more like a hole in the ground. Redyan got to work juicing the leaves. The bug had made a kind of waterproof pouch to catch the juice in. Rokon and I started helping as well.
After a few minutes of constant juicing of the thick leaves, the pouch was full.
"Think this stuff will work?" Rokon asked.
"Oh yah, it has to, because this is the strongest potion in the entire area," Redyan replied. That said, Redyan went over to Calypso first, and let a few drops of the leaf juce run into her mouth. It ran down her throat, and I wasn't sure whether it worked or not. It must've, though, because ten seconds later, she sprang to her feet, snarling.
"Where is that stinkin' SOB who shot me?!" she snarled.
"Calm down, Caly," I said. "I don't know where Roy and Derek went, but hopefully very far from here."
"Oh," she replied, calming down rather quickly. She took a look at the others. "Wow, the same thing that happened to me must've happened to them. What happened, and who's the bug?" she asked, gesturing at Redyan.
"Not now," Rokon said. "We have to wake up the others first. We'll tell all of you what happened all at once."
It didn't take long to wake the others. Redyan went around to everyone else, and let a few drops of the juice slide down their throats.
Blade was up first. He sprang up and slashed the air so fast, he nearly gave me an unwanted haircut. That would not have been pleasant.
Next was Fireburst, still with the hurt wing, Larissa, Shadow, and Lunar. They all flared, and the basic first reaction was: Where the heck is that asshole who shot us?!
Eventually, everyone was awake and angry.
"Cool it, everyone," I said. "Let's go outside and the three of us will explain everything," I finished, pointing to Rokon and Redyan.
Grumbling and still somewhat steamed, we all exited the cave.
"Well? What's the story of all of us one minute fighting the big jerks, and the next minute, we're all wakin' up in a cave?" asked Flameheart.
"The story goes somewhat like this," I said. "First, we finally got everyone back together in one big group..."
"And then, Roy and Derek came charging through with that gun. Roy shot each of you, and Derek stuffed Calypso, Flameheart, and Shadow into a bag, trapping Larissa in another bag, and the others were just plain shot," Rokon said as she finished my explaination.
"Then I came in, and helped Aquafire and Rokon over there to escape from Roy and Derek, and help haul all of you into safety in that cave," said Redyan, gesturing at the cave. "And by the way, my name's Redyan."
"Nice ta meet 'cha, Redyan" said Kirin, "and thanks for the help."
Just when all was going well for once, our group was interrupted, yet again.
"Look, Roy, there they are!" I heard Derek yell.
"I see them, you dumbass!" yelled Roy. He was aiming at me again. I saw that his face was even more badly burned than before. I also noticed that Derek's arms were scarred and red. "You have caused the most trouble of all, you dumb pokémon!" he said, ready to pull the trigger.
I heard the gun go off, and before i could react, the dart stuck me right in the front leg. Man, did it sting! I pulled it out, and saw it dripping with a strange, yellow liquid, most likely the chemical from the dart. I tried to stay awake and fight, but I felt my eyes close, and dimly felt myself fall to the ground.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Caly's p.o.v.*
Oh, terrific! I thought as I saw Aquafire collapse and fall asleep from the dart. Aquafire's down! I also saw Derek advancing towards him, cage in hand. I couldn't allow that.
"Everyone, mass attack!" I yelled to the others.
Shadow, Larissa, Flameheart, Firestrike, Shockwave, Rokon and I used our most powerful attacks on Derek. I used my Ice Beam, Shadow joined created a shadow energy ball, Flameheart and Firestrike readied a fireball, and Rokon, along with Shockwave, charged up for an electric blast.
Simultaneously, all seven of us released our energy, and the energies joined together in one huge blast, which hit Derek square in the stomach, and blasted him far away from the valley.
The others, Lunar, Kirin, Blade, Arbiter, and Redyan ganged up on Roy. Kirin reared up on her hind legs, and kicked the gun from Roy's hands. She almost knocked Fireburst off of her back, who was still on her back, but Fireburst was able to hang on. Redyan wrapped up Roy, holding him immobile, unable to run. Lunar and Arbiter charged up simultaneous dark energy balls laced with some fire energy from Arbiter. Blade was furiously slashing at Roy's head, using his razor sharp scythes, which was being blocked by his burnt arms. I saw the blood running down from the various cuts. Finally, their energy ball was ready, and they simultaneously released their energy at Roy. The energy was so large, it encomapssed his entire body. I heard him scream in pain. Not a pleasant sound, believe me. When the energy ball dissipated into the atmosphere, there was nothing left of Roy, just a smoldering pile of burning fabric.
"Ohh...my...god..." said Kirin. "We murdered a human."
"Doesn't matter," said Lunar. "They would've killed us eventually, or enslave us for the rest of our lives anyway."
"But this could've been avoided," I said quietly. "It is against everything that we pokémon stand for." Everyone else nodded solemly in agreement. I walked over to where Aquafire was laying limp. Rokon, Blade, and Lunar followed me. He was in a deep sleep, almost comatose.
"Redyan, do you have anymore of that potion stuff?" I asked.
"No, I don't," the bug replied. "I did have some left in the bag, but during the fight, it dropped to the ground and spilled out everything inside. There's not even a drop left."
"Crap," said Lunar.
"Same feelings here," said Flameheart.
"Aquafire's practically our leader," said Larissa. "What are we gonna do now? Derek is sure to come back."
"Yeah, and we don't even know how long the little bugger will be out," said Shockwave.
"Will wonders never cease?" I heard Kirin say. "Shockwave actually giving Aquafire a partial compliment."
No one laughed, even though it was pretty funny.
"What would Aquafire do now?" I asked. The others shrugged their shoulders.
"Well, the only thing we can do now is to go back to my home and rest," Rokon said. "It's getting dark, and will be pitch black soon."
"Lead the way, fox girl," I said, letting Rokon lead the way.
