Chapter Seven: Waterway
A/N: Hi ya guys and gals. Thank you guys for all the reviews!!!! This battle will be a little more interesting than the Battle of the Badge. (maybe) One of the reasons is because I'm using a move from a comic. I've changed it a bit. But I still don't own that move, but borrowed it. And I admit it. I will copy one of the moves from the Pokemon Adventures comic because I can't help it. It doesn't belong to me. Remember that. The only thing about the title that matches with the story will be the word 'water'. Suddenly, the power was cut off. At the Power Station. :You cannot spread your reign of terror evil YK! Mwahahahahah!" I turned on the back up generator and continue to type while they have fun.
Disclaimer: If YK wrote this fic, it means it does not own Pokemon.

Alpha is now at Cerulean City. With some training on the way of course. Team Rocket is not slowing them down one bit. Eevee is doing better than ever. Most of the scars disappeared. Alpha had also decided that he should not evolve Eevee, as it would probably attract too much attention. Tricep is still monitoring them from where she stays and she's using satellite cameras at the moment. Alpha had his Pokemon healed at the Pokemon Center and also had lunch. They now headed for the Gym. He had to wait for a while as they were doing a show. Unfortunately, Misty had decided to visit them. Thankfully, she left her Togepi at the Ketchum household.

A look at the Ketchum household.
The whole house was a mess. Brock and Mr. Mime had been fighting over who cleans the house and fought for the broom, the mop, and just about every appliance in the house. Togepi and Pikachu were still shocked a bit from being squashed under the Team Rocket balloon. Fortunately, they're getting over it. Unfortunately, they are now sharing Mrs. Ketchum's fate. In the dryer.

A look at Team Rocket.
"Come back here you thieves!" "Aaahhhhhh!!!! *runs*" They are currently being chased by a grocer as they couldn't help themselves but help themselves over the wide variety of food in his shop. They would've used their Pokemon but... It turns out that there's a pretty good trainer in town. His name's Mark and he's the one who got first place in the Indigo Plateau. He also happens to have a very good Gyarados. They had stolen something from his granddad's shop. Now he's currently chasing Team Rocket along side his granddad. His Gyarados is happy to have some new (though temporary) practice dummies. We see an Arbok, a Victreebell, a Wheezing and a Lickitung with X's in their eyes. A Wobbuffet is currently being a witness on the pavement.

Back to Cerulean City.
Lily: Were going out for a while so you've got to take care of the gym okay? Bye! *slams the door behind her*
Misty: But... Oh well. *sits on a chair*
Dewgong: Dew gong. {Hi Misty.}
Misty: Dewgong! Glad to see you okay! *cuddles him* With you around, trainers don't stand a chance for the Cascade badge.
Alpha: *steps in* Really?
Misty: *looks up* Your that guy with my other Togepi!
Alpha: He's not 'yours'. It was his choice to be my Pokemon. Besides, I have a name you know.
Misty: *says sarcastically* Gee. I can't remember.
Alpha: You gonna battle or what?
Misty: Fine by me!
Both of them stand into position.
Alpha: Can this be a three on three match?
Misty: Sure. But is it because those are the only Pokemon you've got?
Alpha: *nods*
Misty: In that case, you'd better get ready to lose to *strikes a pose* Misty, the Fourth Cerulean Sister! I choose you! Starmie!
Starmie: Star!
Alpha: Then I'll use Togepi!
Togepi: *sees his match and gets ready to win*
Misty: Togepi! *a thought struck her* How about if I win, I get Togepi. If you win, you get the Cascade badge. Deal?
Alpha: Well Togepi?
Togepi: *nods*
Alpha: You've got yourself a deal!
Misty: All right! Starmie! Use your Bubblebeam!
Starmie: *bubbles stream out of his mouth*
Alpha: ...
Togepi: *tilts head to one side as the bubbles stream past and runs forward for a REALLY good Mega Punch at Starmie*
Misty: *before the hit could land, she yelled an instruction* Starmie! Get underwater!
Starmie: * did as he was instructed *
Togepi: *had to stop in the middle of the pool*
Misty: Hah! Starmie! Shoot some Water Guns and get back into the water! Change your location and keep on attacking!
Starmie: * did as it was told *
Togepi: *trying to avoid the burst of water which comes at him every few seconds*
Alpha: *smiles* Togepi!
Togepi: *looks at Alpha for instructions*
Alpha: *narrows his eyes* Set! *uses two fingers to point at an area in the water* Hyper Beam!
Togepi: *uses a very powerful Hyper Beam which sent half of the pool's water into the air*
Starmie: *landed out of the pool with the ruby flashing dangerously*
Misty: Starmie! Return!
Starmie: *gets back into the Pokeball*
Misty: You did great Starmie! *glares at Alpha* This time, I won't cut you any slack! I choose you!
Before Misty could call out her selected Pokemon, Psyduck appeared. He didn't appear the last time because he was asleep.
Psyduck: Psy.
Misty: Psyduck! Guess I'll have to use you now that you're out.
Alpha: Pichu.
Pichu: *came out of the Pokeball*
Misty: Uh oh. Psyduck use your Scratch attack.
Psyduck: *stood there and tilts his head* Psy.
Misty: *falls over anime style*
Pichu: *sends a Thundershock attack at Psyduck which knocks him down in an instant*
Alpha: I'd like to see a moving target.
Misty: *enraged and returned Psyduck to it's respective Pokeball* You think your such hot stuff huh!? Then I'll help you cool off! Dewgong! I choose you!
Dewgong: Dew gong! *steps in*
Alpha: *lets a Pokemon out after returning Pichu*
Eevee: Grr.
Misty: Cute. Dewgong! Aurora Beam!
Dewgong: *sends an Aurora Beam flying for Eevee*
Eevee: *runs straight for Dewgong and avoids the beam by running beside it*
Misty: What the?
Eevee: *tries a Bite attack on Dewgong but at the same time drops into the water as the force was a bit too strong*
Misty: Dewgong! Use a Headbutt!
Dewgong: *recovers from the shock of being pushed into the water and heads for Eevee*
Eevee: *concentrates on Dewgong while holding it's breath*
Dewgong: *is now coming closer to Eevee*
Eevee: *still concentrating on Dewgong and holding his breath but this time using Focus Energy*
Dewgong: *getting closer to Eevee with its horn pointing at him*
Eevee: * still concentrating on Dewgong, holding breath and using Focus Energy*
Misty: *trying to see Dewgong in the water* Get it Dewgong! I know you can!
Dewgong: *horn is a few millimeters from Eevee*
Eevee: *sends out a really strong Whirlwind Attack that slams Dewgong into the wall and sends all the water from the pool flying everywhere*
Misty: *gets some water out of her eyes* Dewgong! *nurses Dewgong*
Eevee: *satisfied, jumps really high and lands on the platform*
Alpha: *for some reason, the water missed him*
Misty: *relieved that Dewgong is in no immediate danger* Fine! Here's the Cascade badge! *tosses it to him*
Alpha: *returns Eevee and grabs the badge*
Misty: *yells extremely loudly* You happy now Mr. Big shot!? *looks around but realized that he isn't around anymore so takes her Pokemon to the Pokemon Center*
Alpha: *had Pokemon at Pokemon Center before Misty and is now walking around then overhears a conversation*
Cerulean Person #1: You've got to believe me! There's a monster in the sewers!
Cerulean Person #2: I know already! Sheesh. People who just can't tell they already know.
Cerulean Person #1: Gee, you already knew?
Cerulean Person #2: Of course I know! I took the picture.
Cerulean Person #1: Really?
Cerulean Person #2: Yup. Gees, don't you read the fine print below the picture?
Alpha: *hears the conversation and heads back to the Pokemon Center feeling suspicious*
Misty: *got back to the Gym with healed Pokemon*
Alpha: *got his Pokemon out of the Pokemon Center and told them about what he just heard*
Pichu/Eevee: *thinks*
Togepi: *crosses arms and thinks*
Alpha: I don't know about you guys, but I'm going.
Eevee/Pichu/Togepi: *nods their heads and follows him*
Alpha and his Pokemon then went to the nearest manhole and snuck into the sewers. Pichu had to use Flash since it was really dark. It stank in there. Even though other people would say it was because of the gunk, the smell was familiar...
Suddenly, something came at them. Alpha had to duck under the slimy arm.
Alpha: Slimy... *looked at the attacker and got a bit of a shock*
The attacker looked like a Muk. LOOKED like one. But there were patches of green on it. It was also slightly glowing of green. Its expression was that of pain. The Muk attacked on without caring. Alpha knew it would be no use to attack it. It was already in enough pain. It was probably attacking them because the pain won't go away. Alpha knew what made it like this. He now cursed Team Rocket viciously under his breath. So did his Pokemon. Before they realized it, they had reached a dead end. The Muk was enormous and with the way it was flinging its arms around, they won't be able to get through without getting acid on themselves.
It was then that they could hear a sound. A sound that resembled that of what a ripple made in a quiet calm lake. Then a quiet tinkling sound before something burst out of the murky water. It gleamed in Pichu's light and landed with a thump on the ground before Alpha. Alpha picked it up before the Muk could cover it with its poisonous slime.
Alpha looked at the thing. It turned out to be a Water Stone, but it's different than a normal one. It was aquatic blue and it looked like crystal. Anyone would've mistaken it for a precious stone. It's probably worth more than any precious stones.
Alpha: Eevee!
Eevee: *was shimmering in a wave of aquatic blue light*
Soon the light engulfed it and when the light faded, a Vaporeon was revealed. It was a bit different from any other Eevee because it was the colour of water so pure, that it made the water from Purity Canyon look like ordinary river water. When it stepped onto the murky water, it became clean and clear.
Alpha: Vaporeon! Try a Surf attack!
Vapereon: *opened its mouth and an overpowering flow of clear water gushed through the sewer*
The water washed over the Muk and when Vapereon was finished and closed it's mouth, the green stuff was gone and it looked happy. It then said a word of thanks and left.
Alpha checked to see if his other Pokemon are all right. He found a very wet Togepi behind him.
Vaporeon: *devolves back to Eevee* Eevee. {Sorry.}
Alpha: Pichu? *realizing that Pichu was washed away, he was about to travel further into the sewer for him when a happy little voice shouted out*
Pichu: Pi! *was on a surfboard made out of his own HP* Pi pi chu pi. Pichu.{I wanted to surf the wave. Sorry.}
Alpha: *laughed a bit* It's okay. But tell me if you want to that the next time okay? Now come on guys. You need another round at the Pokemon Center.
After a few days, Alpha and his Pokemon were on the road again.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Tricep was looking at the scene in the sewers. She inspected the water.
Tricep: This water.... So he has the Water Stone now. First, the Steel Piece and now this. I should've never underestimated your luck. I'm looking forward to your every move Alpha.
