Anyway, here is the fastest update I can recall! Take advantage of it and review ^.~
~Chapter Twelve~
I blinked. Shane was here? But how? And who was this Anthony guy?
Mom put her hand on the doorknob, but Dad raced across the room and pulled her back.
"April!" he hissed. "Don't go out there! Who knows what he might do? And besides, all of the dragons are safe in here. We have no reason to face him."
Mom shook her head. "I have to. Somehow, we didn't completely destroy him last time, and now we have to-for the safety of dragon Pokemon everywhere." She looked at me. "Plus, I want to see what's he's doing with Shane."
Dad let out a long breath. "I'm going with you. . .as long as Diana stays in here. We can't risk her life."
"What are you guys talking about?" I asked.
"I left out a part in my story. . ." Mom trailed off. She turned to Dad again. "Danny, she hasn't known for almost thirteen years. It's time she found out."
"But. . ." Dad started.
"No." Mom looked at me again. "But she can go through the underwater trail we discovered last time."
"Huh?" I asked. I was so confused. Just as things were starting to make sense, another obstacle would form.
Mom took my arm and let me to the closet in the room. To my surprise, she lifted up a huge piece of tile and under it was water.
"This is a little trail you swim that leads to the pool outside," Mom said. "It's not very long; not even half a mile. Just swim out into the pool and hang onto the edge. . .and somehow. . .you'll know what to do," Mom whispered. She walked back over to the door. "Go, Diana. Go now."
I stared at that still, clear water and thought about this. Should I really jump in here and follow her orders? Or should I run to the door and see what Shane was doing?
Something told me to listen to Mom, so I slipped into the water, held my nose, and began to swim as I heard Mom open the door to the main room.
~*~*~
All I could hear were the sounds of rushing water, so I had no idea what was going on with Mom and Dad. When I finally reached the pool, I stuck my head up just enough to get some air and swam quietly to the edge. I peered over the side of the pool, and to my horror, saw Mom and Dad with two of Pokeballs in their hands with some scruffy-looking guy-and if it was possible, he looked like he was. . .transparent-holding Shane's shirt collar. The guy was FLOATING, and looked as if he would drop Shane. It took all of my power not to scream out.
"How did you get here, Anthony?!" Mom yelled, raising the Pokeballs a little.
The floating guy, who I assumed was Anthony, laughed. An evil, sick, twisted laugh. "Your little 'love spell' didn't work as well as you thought. Ah, as you see, I still have a mind. . ."
"What's the point of a mind if you have no soul?" Mom gritted her teeth.
"Heh heh," Anthony chuckled. "Well, you see, I have been using this boy," he held up Shane, whose head was slumped over and his arm and leg were covered in casts. "To provide a body for me. I can make him do whatever I want."
Mom gasped and looked at Shane, then Anthony again. "It was YOU!"
Anthony laughed his twisted laugh again. "Of course."
Mom's rage got the best of her as she yelled, "Go!" and threw the Pokeballs in her hands. I raised my eyebrows as two dark blue, graceful-looking creature with horns protruding from their heads came out of the Pokeball. They tried to stand up-they had no legs or arms-and cried out, attacking Anthony.
They hit Shane instead, since Anthony was transparent. Shane made no movement or cry, and I could barely contain myself from strangling this evil man.
I shook my head a little. Why was I thinking like this? Sure, I didn't want Anthony to hurt Shane-I didn't want Shane hurt at all-but. . .
Anthony's eyes suddenly grew red. Bright red, not red as in about-to-cry. The dark blue creatures suddenly stopped their attacks, looked back at Mom, and flew towards her. They wrapped their long bodies around her wrists, slammed her back into the wall, and somehow imbedded their horns in the crystal-and-stone material.
Mom was trapped.
Anthony dropped Shane, and he landed at the edge of the pool about an inch away from me. I ducked a little so Anthony wouldn't see me. He just left Shane there and did this little walk-and-float thing towards Mom.
"Still haven't cut this wretched hair?" he said, plucking a few strands of Mom's long, long hair from her head. She winced and tried to get her hands free, but those creatures just tightened their grip.
"Stay away from her!" Dad cried, lunging for Anthony. I noticed he didn't use the Pokeballs-he probably knew better than to let out Pokemon Anthony would probably use against him-and tried to tackle Anthony. Unfortunately, Dad just fell on the hard floor since Anthony was transparent.
"She is a dear image of Serena," Anthony said, smiling an evil smile. I heard Dad mutter a few things under his breath as he pulled out one of the Pokeballs and threw it towards Anthony's head. Anthony could someone sense it, though, so he spun around and after the Pokeball opened to reveal another one of those dark-blue creatures, Anthony cast his spell on it and the creature wrapped itself around Dad's waist and pinned its horn into the wall. Dad slumped over.
I couldn't take it anymore. I began to hoist myself up from the pool, but Mom saw me and shook her head slightly. Luckily I ducked just as Anthony looked back. He turned to Mom again.
"But Serena didn't have quite such long hair. Nor did she come back," he added, glaring around.
"I came back because I had to. Because-" Mom stopped.
Anthony chuckled evilly. "Because you've got another little Tamer girl to protect your precious dragons?"
Mom stopped a gasp. "No. . .because I had to find the person who was killing my dragons. And I guess I found him," she added, glaring at Anthony.
Anthony laughed. "Ah, don't tell me you've forgotten already? I can't do anything. I have someone to do it for me."
Mom looked confused at first, but I realized it.
Shane had been killing the dragons Mom was talking about.
I touched Shane's hand-it was slumped over the side of the pool-and swallowed. Quick as a wink, I jumped out of the pool, ignoring Mom's look of a plea to get away, and threw the Pokeball she had given me, not quite sure of what would happen next.
