Chapter 9: Magma Massacre
Once again the trio (now in their normal outfits) rest on Lapras' soft and protective shell, while the traveling and transporting Lapras gentle skated on the crystal clear water of the Orange Island's oceans. The weather was perfect; bright and sunny, and the ocean was even more amazing, so tranquil and gentle, however like always Kamme and Tyson disagreed...
"I can't believe you think your Espeon's fur is shinier than my Dewgong's?!" Kamme roared at Tyson's last remark about beauty and other contest held for Pokemon.
"It's the truth," Tyson crossed his arms and darted his head in the opposite direction of the girl. "Espeon's fur is perfect and shinny, so purple and powerful!"
"So wish?!" she countered, "My Dewgong's fur is perfect! And it can withstand any temperature of water and ice! Your little Espeon couldn't even take a weak Powder Snow attack!"
'Not again...' Dustin sweat-dropped and sighed.
A couple of yards away a silver scaled Pokemon jumped into the air and landed in the water within a passing second, catching Dustin's attention.
"Huh?" he nipped his head in the direction of the splash, he saw the tail of the creature, it was silver with two small black fins growing from the tip. "Lugia?" he thought out loud and shook his head. "Hey did you guys see that?!"
"See what?!" Kamme growled at Dustin for interrupting the feud between her and Tyson.
"Uh---nothing," Dustin wagged his hands, "Nothing, nothing, just ignore that last statement," he sweat-dropped and sighed together. The dark haired trainer then thought to himself, 'That had to be Lugia...I remember it from the Whirl Islands...'
"Anyways!" Kamme grunted at Dustin and then reverted her attention and anger at the blonde haired surfer/trainer, "My Dewgong is way better! It's Ice Beam and Aura Beam have won me three contest!"
"O yeah?!" Tyson snapped back, "Espeon's Mud-Slap and Quick Attack won it four ribbons! And that was when it was an Eevee!"
"Gr..." she replied, wordless, a rare and scarred occasion, or so Dustin thought. "So what?! Dewgong is a stronger Pokemon! It can travel through all different types of water terrains!"
"Espeon can read the possibilities of the future by sensing the wind movements in the air!" Tyson retaliated.
"No way!" Kamme refused to accept.
"Get Dustin to check his dex," Tyson smirked.
Dustin was caught up in his thoughts of the thing he saw, he knew it was Lugia, it had to be the Guardian of the Sea, the mighty Halcyon!
"Dustin?!" she roared and disrupted Dustin's train of thought.
"?Huh?!" he shook his black haired head, coming back to the real world. "Uh- what?"
"Pokedex!" Kamme replied, "Get it out! Haven't you been listening!"
"Uh-oh yeah," he lied. Dustin reached in his bag and pulled out his dex. "Which Pokemon do you want me to scan?"
"Espeon," Tyson evilly grinned in Kamme's direction.
Dustin typed in the entry on the Johto Pokedex, given to him by Professor Elm when he started his journey with Larvitar.
"Espeon," Devon began it's analysis on the Psychic form of Eevee, "This Pokemon is the form of Eevee in which maximum exposure to the Sun resulted in. Espeon has the ability to read it's opponent's future moves by reading the air currents in the wind." The dex shut off and Dustin put it back in his bag.
"See," Tyson snorted. "Espeon can read the future! So if we were to fight my Espeon would know all of your Pokemon's moves. It wouldn't need it though, cause I've taught my Espeon Shadow Ball and Calm Mind!"
"My Corsola would just use Mirror Coat and knock it back!" Kamme growled.
"I thought it was between Espeon and Dewgong?!" Tyson cursed, "Cheater!"
"CHEATER?!" she roared in Tyson's face. "HOW DARE YOU CALL ME A CHEATER?! THAT'S IT!"
"Hey look!" Dustin pointed to the island they were approaching. "An Island!" he quickly pulled out his Pokegear and called the map up, "It's Lilac Island!"
"Lilac Island?" Kamme echoed. "There isn't nothing there, besides a few stores, but I guess we could stop by and re-stock on our supplies."
"There are some trainers there," Tyson nudged Dustin in the side with his elbow. The blonde haired surfer/trainer winked at his black haired counter part.
"Dude!" Dustin smiled as bright as the blazing sun above their heads.
-=-=-=-=-==--=-=-=-=
"Lapras," Kamme sucked back in the Water/Ice type in her Pokeball, "Return," she put up the shrunken Pokeball in her bag.
The trio had made it to Lilac Island's shore, a gentle sandy area with some tourist on it, no trainers though. Lilac Island was one of the smallest islands on in the Orange Island area, there was a few stores and a small Pokemon Center in the town's square however.
"So I'll go re-stock on everything," Kamme announced. "You two don't get lost, and meet me back here in two hours."
"Yep," Dustin nodded.
"Fine," Tyson sarcastically smiled.

In the meantime, amongst the beach, on the far west side of Lilac Island's lush and golden sand beaches was an empty area surrounded by a few trees and a rest area, besides the fact that a young women wearing a Mafia hat was using her flaming Pokemon to defeat a younger trainer.
The young trainer was around fifteen at the oldest, he wore a blue shirt and khaki shorts, he had blue hair and red eyes. He looked scared as his reptile Pokemon; Treecko was getting beat by the Magma Adman's Quilava.
The Magma women wiped a peace of loose hanging blonde hair from her face, it was Brit, one of the strongest and most feared Magma members around. "Since your not going to tell me where the ancient tomb is I'll just steal your Treecko!"
"I'll never tell!" the boy jerked back, "Treecko! Use Quick Attack!"
"Tree!" the Wood Gecko Pokemon replied, it bent down and started running on all four, when he was about three feet from Quilava, Treecko jumped into the air and pounced on the Volcano Pokemon, throwing Quilava back a few feet. Treecko stood back up, safe and ok for the most of it.
"Quilava stop playing around!" Brit commanded, "Finish this Treecko off with a Toxic attack!"
"Lava!" the mouse got back up on all four in a defensive position, it light up the flames on his back and neck and bellowed out a poisonous purple gas, hovering over Treecko and causing the Grass type to cough some, when the smoke passed the Wood Gecko Pokemon's eyes were slumped and weak looking.
"Treecko!" the boy cried.
"Ko..." his reptile Pokemon weakly stood it's ground, "Ko..." All of a sudden Treecko's small body was enveloped by a white light, he was evolving! Treecko was replaced by a larger and more reptilian like figure with long blades made from leaves on it's forearms. The light downed down and Grovyle was born!
"So it evolved," Brit huffed, "O well, if your not telling we're not wasting our time! Quilava use Smokescreen!"
"Lava!" the mouse blew out another gas from it's mouth, however this one was not deadly or green, but black. The smoke filled up the area for a few seconds, when it died down the boy and Grovyle were all that remained.
"Awesome Grovyle!" the boy cheered, he was safe and he got a new Pokemon on his team, the boy had nothing to complain about.
-=-=-=-=-=-==--=-=-=
Kamme walked out of a PokeMart and into the slow moving streets of the small town of Lilac Island, a few tourist and even fewer natives crowded around the streets, most of them taking pictures of the sights the Orange Islands had to offer.
"This place sure has changed," Kamme admitted out loud. "I remember when it used to host a ton of powerful Pokemon trainers...what happened?" she asked as she saw a small tourist kid taking pictures of another trainer's Venonat.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Dustin and Tyson walked throughout the streets of Lilac Island's small town, they asked but never got a yes from anybody, no one on the island wanted to fight in a Pokemon battle!
"Dude..." Dustin whined. "I thought you said there was a bunch of trainers here..." he looked around and saw a few tourist taking pictures, "Where are they?"
"I thought there was," Tyson replied. "But I haven't been here in a while, so I guess things changed..." he laughed some at the irony.
Irony was something Dustin had never got and never would get, so he went ahead and asked, "What's so funny?"
"Uh..." Tyson sweat-dropped and sighed, "Nothing---don't worry about it..."
"So..." Dustin was trying to make conversation with his new friend, "Um...what type of board do you use? I use short and long."
"HELP!" a women in the streets cried.
"Huh?!" Tyson didn't answer Dustin because of the cry. "What was that?!" he heard it again and ran into the streets, Dustin followed right behind.
The two walked into the semi-crowded streets where two Magma Grunts had just stole something that looked like a map from a women dressed in a lab coat with light red hair and pale gray eyes.
"Thanks," the first Grunt, a female, mocked as he twisted the map in her hands.
"The boss is going to be pleased," the second Grunt, a male followed up.
"Someone help!" the scientist in the lab coat cried, "That map is from the local museum! It's very important!"
No one in the crowd knew how to reply, except for Dustin and Tyson...
"We'll help," Tyson stood in front of the women and enlarged a Pokeball, "Magma Grunts are nothing compared to my Pokemon!" he enlarged a Pokeball, "Go Espeon!" Tyson called out his Psychic form of Eevee.
"Get it Slugma!" the male threw a Pokeball and called out the flaming slug like Pokemon, which yawned weakly.
"Go Magby!" the female chunked a Pokeball and summoned the baby form of Magmar, Magby, known for burning down objects on accidents.
"Two on one isn't fair," Dustin interrupted and stood next to Tyson, he quickly enlarged a Pokeball and threw it, "Umbreon go!" he called out the Dark form of Eevee. Umbreon's yellow rings flickered blue from the sun light blazing down on the battle scene.
"Flamethrower!" the male Grunt ordered.
"Slug!" the strange slug like creature opened it's mouth and bellowed out a jet of yellow and red flames, however Espeon and Umbreon moved to the left and right and dodged the flaming jet with ease, thanks to their agile legs muscles.
"Magby!" the female Magma begun, "Use Ember!"
"Mag!" the tiny Fire type stood up on it's tip toes and inhaled a large amount of oxygen, "By!" it blew out a fireball made of orange and yellow flames, aimed at Espeon, however the Psychic type leapt into the air and landed a few seconds after, the fireball died down quickly, not hurting anyone or anything.
"Now's our chance!" Dustin cheered, "Faint Attack!"
"No!" Tyson blurted in, "Your rushing in too fast!"
"Huh?" Dustin asked.
Umbreon's eyes began to glow a purple shade, it then disappeared and reappeared in front of Slugma, he tackled the slug, however the Fire type wasn't hurt, but Umbreon's black fur got red, the Dark type was burnt severely by Slugma's hot so-called skin.
"Finish Umbreon off with Flamethrower!" the female Grunt ordered.
Tyson was obviously made at Dustin's previous move, however he wouldn't let Umbreon get hurt, "Espeon use Safeguard! Protect Umbreon!"
"By!" Magby blew out a jet of red and orange flames at the Dark type, however Espeon ran up near Umbreon and started to glow white, the flames hit the Psychic type but didn't hurt him, thanks to the Safeguard technique Tyson had taught his Espeon a few days ago.
"Thanks," Dustin smiled at Tyson, "Dude you saved me."
"No problem," Tyson replied, "But we need to get back that map!" he looked at the female's hand and figured out what to do, "Espeon use Disable! Stop Slugma and Magby from moving!"
"Esp," the purple furred Pokemon nodded in agreement. His dark eyes began to glow a brilliant shade of blue, an aura of the same color developed around Magby and Slugma, turning the two Fire types into motionless dolls.
"Now Dustin!" Tyson ordered, "Tell Umbreon to use Quick Attack and get the map!"
"You heard him Umbreon!" Dustin echoed.
"Bre!" the Dark type nodded and start running on all four, despite it's serious burn, it leapt into the air and snagged the map from the female Grunt's hand with his mouth. Umbreon landed behind the Grunt and disappeared with Faint Attack, it reformed next to Dustin with the map in his mouth.
"Return!" both Magma Grunts withdrew their Pokemon in the Pokeballs.
"The boss won't be happy!" the female groaned.
"Neither will Brit," the male followed up. "We're out of here!" he grinned at Dustin and Tyson and threw down a smoke ball.
When the smoke died down the two Grunts were gone. However the crowd were cheering and clapping for Dustin and Tyson's remarkable work.
"Here," Tyson bent down and pulled out a bottle from his bag, he sprayed some medicine on Umbreon, which cured it completely.
"Thanks," Dustin smiled and got the map. He looked at the women in the coat and gave it to her, "Here you go."
"Thank you," she quickly took the map, "Forgive me, but I am late and need to get to the museum as fast as I can!" she ran off quickly in a strange manor, as if she was out of place or not social.
"Dude. Where is the museum?" Dustin asked after withdrawing and congratulating Umbreon.
"Lilac Island doesn't have a museum," Tyson replied after thanking and recollecting Espeon. He didn't have time to think as he viewed a clock on one of the banks in the town, "We're late?!"
"Dude?!" Dustin said in fear, fear of Kamme's wrath.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Kamme tapped her right foot into the dirt, a sign of impatience as the two boys ran up to her, panting hard from a long jog. "Your late!" she scolded. "Thirty minutes late! Your lucky I didn't leave you!"
"Sorry---long battle," Tyson panted hard as he stopped in front of her, Dustin was also breathing hard with his stop.
"I bet," she growled. "Let's just get going!"
"Ok..." the two boys agreed with their female friend's commands.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
The women in the lab coat ran up to the opposite side of the beach from Dustin and the gang. No one was around, except for an infamous Aqua Admin; Tina.
"Did you get it?" Tina asked.
"Yes," the women in the lab coat pulled out the map she got from Dustin and Tyson's battle, "It was successfully stolen by Team Magma, thanks to some mellowed out surfer trainers," she wickedly laughed.
"Good," Tina took the map and smiled. She un-curled the map and read it, "This is the map Archie wanted, don't see much on it...o well," she curled up the map and grinned evilly. "Good job, now let's get going!"
