Chapter 5: Captured

It was the early afternoon, and two trainers decide to walk to Moon's Gap. The boy trainer watched as he saw a group of Mankeys playing in some nearby trees, while the women trainer looked up the sky watching spearows flying across their sky. "This place is interesting, Professor Firebane, how did you know about this place." the boy asked while laughing at two male mankeys who were fighting over a female mankey. She looked at the mankeys then started ahead of him. The boy quickly ran after Professor Firebane, "What's you hurry, it's like you don't want to stay here all day." The boy said, and she looked at him. "I want to get to town before nightfall, I have a promise to an old friend that I have to keep, Ethan." She said calmly and started again to Moon's Gap, and Ethan followed. A Shadow flew over them and Firebane looked up and the gusts of wind started blow across the fields, "Twister, do you mind?" She yelled and a sandy colored wolf with white wings landed in front of them. "G'day, Mates, Sorry about that but you should of know I'll would be here." He said with an Australian accent behind his voice. "Dude, Twister, how did you get here, I thought you were stay with others?" Ethan asked.

Twister looked to the west where the mountains were touching the skies. "I was called back by my leader, He said there was trouble coming here, and he wanted all the wolf demons here." Twister said then expanded his wings, "Well, Mates, I hated to fly off, but He want us to report what we saw while patrolling these field, See ya, Mates!" and with a mighty flap of his white wings Twister took to the skies and start back to the mountains he was looking at and disappeared in the skies. "Well, let's go Ethan we need to be up by the time the Moon is in the night sky." She said as walked to the town and Ethan followed her to Moon's Gap.

Twister flew quickly to the mountains close to Moon's Gap, where a cave awaited him. Dust raised as he land in front of the cave and he walked in. A small fire was light in the middle of group of shadows. One of the shadows stood up and looked at Twister, "What is your report, Twister?" He asked the tried wolf demon. Twister bowed lightly to the shadow, "There was no sign those people in black with a red "R" on their clothes, Kryo." Twister said calmly, then looked up at his leader. Kryo nodded lightly and walk towards the end of the den. A white wolf with navy wings stood up and looked at a black wolf with dark green demon wings. "Kryo, why are we worried about these Rockets anyhow, they pose no threat to us?" the black wolf asked Kryo, then the white wolf looked at Kryo as well. Kryo looked at the young black wolf, "If Team Rocket gets here, we'll be captured and experimented on, just we were back home, Lara."

Another black wolf demon with dark red wings stood up, "Kryo, not to be rude, lad, but we left our world to live in peace with the people here in this world." He said. Then another dark wolf demon stood up as well, "Yeah, Kryo, what are you so afraid of?" Kryo couldn't think of what to say to them. "This new enemy has a better technology than what we're use too, my friends." a new voice said. All the wolf demons turned to see who it was. A young human like dark wolf without demon's wings entered the den, he carried a staff with leaves sprouting at the top of the staff. He wore tan pant, and wore a dark green cloak. All the wolf demons bowed lightly to the newcomer as he walked up to Kryo.

"Mystic, what do you mean these Rockets have better technology, when I fought that rocket before, all he had was a dagger." Kryo said to the wizard, but Mystic shook his head lightly. "He didn't think someone else would protect the girl you and Kero save that night." Mystic threw some dust into the fire and images appeared in the fire. "These 'Rockets' as you like called them has these long range weapons, better than the bow and arrow we use to," then an image draws it's gun and the sound of gun fire echoed in the den, "They have the power of a thousand arrows, and they can be fatal." Then the black wolf slammed his hand on the ground, "but we're immortal, we can't be harmed by mortal weapons." he yelled, but Mystic put his hand up. "Tis true, Trev, but if your wings get shot while in flight…" Mystic said to the black wolf. "You'll have the same fate as Shadow." A female dark wolf Demon said.

"But we have to protect the portal guardian at all cost, if Team Rocket gets their hands on her, they'll find our world and destroy everything and everyone we all loved and hold dear." The white wolf said, and Kryo nodded his head lightly. Then all the wolf demons agreed with the young white wolf. "Then it's set in stone, when they come, we'll be ready." Kryo said, and the other drew their weapons and raised them in the air.

Silver watching the Sunset when Backfire came and sat beside her. "Silver, remember that night when you battle that girl and Nightstar got kill." Silver lightly nodded her head and kept her eyes on the sunset. "Well, what were those monstrous figures that save your life." Silver was silent still and when the Sunset was over she stood up a started back to her home. "Those figures were just protecting me from that Rocket who attack." Silver finally said to Backfire. When Silver got back to her home, Kayla was standing in front of her door. "Hi, Silver." She said cheerfully.

"Okay, How did you find my home?" Silver asked, then a growlithe appeared from behind Kayla. "Hot Streak followed your scent after you left the pokemon center." Devil appeared behind Silver, and Kayla started to hyperventilate. "Who… is… That…?" Kayla said when she could. Silver picked up the Umbreon. "This is Nightstar's son, Devil, He was born two days ago, and I guess he looks Nightstar, right?" Silver said as she petted Devil. Kayla calmed down and Silver handed Devil to Kayla. "He does look like your other Umbreon, I almost thought I saw a ghost or something." Devil jumped out of Kayla's arms and ran in side of Silver's home. "Silver? Is that you?" a voice said. Silver turned around and saw a woman in her early twenties, wearing a white lab coat. Behind her was boy in his late teens wearing regular clothes for everyday.

"Ok, who are you?" Kayla asked harshly. The woman just shook her head lightly, "I'm just an old friend of Silver's." She said. Silver was confused a bit, she remember the face but couldn't think of who it was. "Maybe this will help you remember." She said when she put out of her pocket a silver houndoom charm with 'Nicole' engraved into it. Silver walked up to the woman and to a closer look at the charm. "Jill? Is it you?" She asked the woman and she nodded heard head. "But now it's Professor Firebane." Jill said. The boy behind Jill coughed lightly at her. "Oh, yeah and this is Ethan, a master of electric pokemon and a member of Firebolt." Ethan shook Silver hand and nodded lightly. "It's nice it meet you, and this Kayla." Silver said.

From the window, Backfire watched as Silver was talking to the other people outside from Silver's home. "If Silver does hurry up, The moon is going to rise without the Moonlight Thief." Then the Alakazam Silver catch the night before came up behind Backfire. "Who is this Moonlight Thief?" He asked. Backfire jumped down from the chair, "It's Silver's shadow personality, Psyfire, it only happens at night when the moon is in the sky." Psyfire nodded lightly and when to gather the other Dark pokemon for the night.

"So what is this Firebolt, Jill?" Silver asked. Jill looked at Ethan and looked at Silver. "It's a group of trainers who are fighting against Team Rocket. I'm trying to…" The moon started to rise in the night sky and Silver's eyes widen then she run inside of her home. Kayla and Ethan were shocked about what Silver just did but Jill just shook her head. "I forgot." Jill said. Kayla looked at Jill, "What?" She asked harshly. "Yes, Why did she do that, Professor Firebane?" Ethan asked her.

"Silver told me a few years ago that she was created by Team Rocket, and they use three different pokemon types: Dark, Ghost, and Fighting. Her Dark and Ghost DNA are in tuned to the night and the moon and she'll battle in the night." Jill explained to them. Then a blue flame flashed in front of them. "Well, better follow her." Ethan said as he pulled out a pokeball, and Jill did the same thing. Kayla was still confused and wasn't too happy. "Ok, I want to know what's going on here!" she yelled. "If you want to know, you'll have follow us, and I'll explained everything." Jill said as she jumped on a Rapidash. Kayla called out Trail and all three of them rode off after Silver.

The night wind blown lightly across the fields, A boy watched as a few Houndours ran across the path. He decided to walk up on the hill to get a better look of where he was at. When got up the hill, a Dark trainer was waiting for him up there. "I wish to battle you." She said. And without hesitation the boy drew out his first pokeball. "No problem." He said. The boy threw his first pokeball out, "Sneasel" the pokemon said as she prepared for battle. "Go, Icedemon" Moonlight yelled and her Sneasel was ready for battle. The Sneasel started to charge at other. "Icedemon, use Agility." Moonlight said and Icedemon started to speed up so fast, it looked like there was ten of him. "Midnight, use Agility as well." Then both were so fast twenty of them appeared. Moonlight shook her head, this is going to take forever, she thought. "Icedemon, use Fury cutter." Moonlight said and Icedemon charge at the other sneasel and slash at her. The hit was made but the attack didn't harm her very much. Icedemon got little mad and charged at Midnight again. "Midnight, use beat up." Midnight threw punches with her claws at Icedemon and Icedemon fell after the attack was done. The moonlight thief recalled Icedemon and drew another pokeball from her belt. "Go, Devil." The young umbreon emerge from his pokeball and was ready for battle.

Before the battle could continue, a gun was fire, this time in the air. "Oh no." Moonlight said then she turn around. Rick was behind her and had his gun in his hand. "Devil, return." Moonlight said and Devil was return into the pokeball. "Well, X7, I'm surprised you got a new pokemon to replace your night rat." He taunted. Silver started to growl lightly and ball her hand into fist. "So, this is the girl the boss wants." a new voice said and the boy wearing a black Team rocket jumpsuit appeared behind him, followed by two girls also from team rocket. "So you needed reinforcements to get me." Silver said harshly as Backfire moved behind her. Then one of the girl's pointed at the boy behind Silver. "Is that the Tai kid that we've been after for awhile?" Rick nodded his head, "So it is, we'll take him as well." Rick said, Silver looked at her Houndoom and handed him a bag. "Backfire run as far as you can and hide our friends." Backfire nodded and started to run to the woods. Silver faced Rick, "If you want me, you'll have to fight me." She said.

Rick looked at the one Rocket, "Josh, if she tries to run, I want you to have your pokemon ready." He said, then a gunshot was heard in the distance and the bullet missed Rick. Everyone looked to see who fired the gun, It was a girl on a Rapidash that had a gun pointing at the four Rockets. "Next time I wouldn't miss." Kayla said, and behind her was Jill on her Rapidash and Ethan on a Charizard. "These lands are protected by Firebolt, Leave at once." Jill yelled at the four Rockets.

Rick looked at the other the other three. "New plan, prevent those four from interfering with the capturing of the X7." Rick said and three nodded. Josh called out his Fearow and the two girl called out two grass, a Tangela, and Exeggutor. "I'll take the Charizard, Claire take the Rapidash without the gun, and Josie take the Rapidash with the gun." Josh said as flew after the Charizard. Kayla put her gun away, "So a little grass pokemon wants to fight a Fire type, Let's go Trail!" Kayla said as Trail charge off towards the Tangela. Jill Jumped off her Rapidash and let the Rapidash charge into battle against the Exeggutor. Silver jump on to Twilight and started ran far from the battles to escape team rocket but Rick ran after her, and Tai followed after him.

Rick threw a dagger at Twilight's legs, but it missed and forced her to buck and made Silver fall off. Silver stood up and faced Rick and drew her dagger. "You remember the last time you fought me." Silver said, but Rick didn't care. "Fine then." Silver said, and she charge at Rick with her dagger point at him. Rick moved out of the line of her charge and forced her to trip in the dirt. "Come on, X7, let's fight hand to hand, no weapons." Rick said, Silver threw her dagger at the ground. "Fine with me." Silver said, then Rick started to run at her. Silver blocked the first punch and threw a punch at his head, but he blocked. Soon punches and kicks were thrown at each other but they both kept blocking each others. Then Rick kicked under silver's legs where she couldn't block and force her to fall on her back, then Rick threw a punch at her stomach, and another one at her head. Silver slowly got up and coughed out some blood. Silver glared at her enemy and ran at him again. This time Rick threw a punch at her stomach. Silver coughed up some more blood, then fell.

Rick looked at his prize for while then he tied her hand behind her back. Silver groan as she woke up. "Pity, I thought you would be more of a challenge, X7." Rick said, then kicked her in the stomach. He called out a fearow and put her on the bird pokemon. As he started to take off and white thing was coming at him at a fast speed. The white wolf flew at a fast speed towards the Fearow. "LET HER GO!" The White wolf yelled but a gun was fired at him. The bullet hit his wing and the white wolf cried out in pain as he fell to the ground. "That was easy." Rick as the flew towards the still raging battle, The charizard fell to ground and the rapidashs were being beaten by two grass types. "We got our prize, let's head back to headquarters." Rick said and the three Rocket retreat to the north. Jill, Ethan, and Kayla recalled their pokemon and started to look around for Silver. Tai was spotted carrying a white creature towards the others. "He's injured." Tai said as the other ran up to him. Kayla was shocked what she saw. "What is it?" Kayla asked. Jill and Ethan as five more creatures flying towards them, and landed in front of them. "What happen?" One of them asked. Tai stepped forward, "He tried to prevent Team rocket form taking a trainer but the rocket shot his wing." Then a human like dark wolf with a staff appeared and looked at the white wolf's wing. "He should be ok, He wasn't very high in the air." Tai said, but the dark wolf shook his head. "I feared this would happen, I warned Kero about their weapons." He said, and bandaged his wing. Kayla started to get mad and pulled out her gun again. "Okay, I want explanation, NOW!" Kayla yelled. The Leader of the creatures stepped forward. "Of course, but we'll have to get the portal guardian back from Team Rocket." He said. Jill look at the leader of the creatures, "Who are you?" Jill asked.

"I'm Kryo, the leader of the Wolf Demons, we're here to protect the portal guardian from evil." Kryo said, then the dark wolf stand beside Kryo. "Team Rocket somehow create a portal guardian by mixing four elements: Dark, Ghost, Fighting, and Psychic. Your friend, Silver, happens to be one of many portal guardian." The Dark wolf said. Jill nodded, "Then, I'm coming, you need someone who know where team rocket's headquarters are at." Ethan step beside her and nodded. "I'm coming, too." Tai said. "So am I." Kayla said.

"Then you'll need a tour guild." a new voice said, and all of them turn to see who it was. Backfire was behind them and walked up towards them. "If you plan to invade Team Rocket's Headquarters, I'll lead you to where their might have my master." Backfire said, and all of them were shocked. "Yes, I can talk, Silver taught me how to speak the human language a few years ago." He said. Kryo nodded at looked at his pack. "We'll all stay here with Kero." Twister said, but the dark wolf shook his head. "Mystic?" Kryo said in confusing. "You'll need my help so I'll go along as well." Mystic said, and Kryo nodded. Sun began to rise in the horizon, and the rescue was on its way.
