Chapter 34

Ash and Lillie are now in front of their private plane of the RPA, and much to their annoyance, those traveling partners are stalking them as they are also there. Adam asks Ash, "So it is time that the two of you are going to do that, huh?"

Ash says, "Yes, Father. This is the reason why we were able to get the Aura Weapons in the first place."

Lillie says, "And because of the quest is so horrible, which is why we are not going to let anyone else come on the plane with us."

This causes the girls to growl again, and Brock says, "I understand fighting Team Rocket is dangerous, but are you sure we can't come with you?"

Ash says, "Well, besides our families, who are capable of using Aura, we would need someone capable of healing our Pokemon, someone who is capable of fixing machines that were destroyed during their attack, and we would need a Professor who is capable of doing documents."

"In other words, Brock, Gary, and Clemont. We would want you three to come with us, that is only if you are capable of following the rules."

The three of them nod in agreement, and Dawn says, "Hey, why can't we go as well?"

"Yeah, we can help you out as well." Iris says.

"You guys hinder more than help." Lillie retorts back, "Just like I told you, you guys were using Ash as personal gain, and you would just try to flirt with him in the plane instead of thinking how to stop Team Rocket."

"You..." The girls are now angry as Ash says, "Lillie, you don't need to waste your breath on my friends. They are not worth it."

The girls start to think that Ash is helping them as they start to smirk, but Ash says, "But as Lillie said, I can't take you guys with us because you don't know anything about me. You are just like followers who just want me to help you out."

Lillie is the one that smirks again, and the girls are feeling a knife stabbing into their hearts. Ash turns to Cilan and Alain, "I would need you two to have an eye for those girls, make sure they aren't doing something."

"You can count on me, Ash." Cilan says as Ash and Lillie go onto the plane, followed by Adam, Delia, Lusamine, Mohn, Gladion, Kristen, Amber, Wade, Gina, Brock, Gary and Clemont. After a short while, the plane takes off as the group is now heading towards the Kanto Region.


"So where is our first stop?" Kirsten asks, and Ash says, "That would be the Shamouti Islands. That is the place where Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres used to gather."

"And how do you know about that?" Adam asks in confusion, and Ash says, "A few years ago, there is a prophecy."

Ash closes his eyes and talks in a god-like manner, "Disturb not the harmony of Fire, Ice, or Lightning
Lest these Titans wreak destruction
Upon the world in which they clash
Though the Water's Great Guardian shall arise to quell the fighting
Alone its song will fail
Thus the earth shall turn to ash
O Chosen One
Into thine hands bring together all three
Their treasures combined tame the Beast of The Sea
From the trio of islands, ancient spheres shall you take
For between life and death, all the difference you'll make
Climb to the shrine to right what is wrong
And the world shall be healed by the Guardian's song..."

"The earth shall turn to Ash...that was the prophecy about you, right?" Gary asks, and Ash says, "Yes, so somehow I had to go to the three islands to find the three spheres to calm down Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos so that I can calm down the birds with the help of Lugia."

"I think I remembered about what happened in the past." Delia says, and this causes the others to look at her with confusion, Delia says, "Due to the three birds fighting, the climate has been changing so Professor Oak asks me to come with him to the Shamouti Islands to learn about what happened."

"I remembered that." Ash says with a wry smile, "I remember how you scolded me for doing such a dangerous thing as well."

"But that Ash is really cool, to be able to calm down the three birds like that." Kristen says as she is still fangirling about Ash, and it causes Lillie to be annoyed by her actions.

"Let's get back to business. You think that Team Rocket is going for the Legendary Birds first?" Mohn asks.

"We are not sure, Dad. But that is a slight possibility." Lillie says as the plane is about to reach the destination, but much to their surprise, they see that the three birds are awake and they are fighting four cyborgs who are using their mechanical parts to attack them.

One of them is a boy who is using his robot parts to fire Ice attacks, as they can see him using Ice Beam on the Zapdos, who manages to dodge before the attack hits. The second one is a boy who is using his robot parts to fire Electric attacks, and they see how he uses his head to fire off the Thunderbolt. The third one is a girl who is using her robot parts to fire Fire attacks, the attack is from the leg as it also becomes fuel to make her fly in the air. And the final one has mechanical wings that are attached to the body, as it is flying to the sky delivering Acrobatics.

"So they are the Cyborgs that Arceus mentioned to us..." Lillie says with slight horror.

This is really insane." Clemont says, "I never thought that machines are being used like that..."

"That's why it's Team Rocket, and we are going to stop them." Ruka says as Ash and Lillie have already jumped down from the plane to intercept those four Team Rocket members.

"Stop what you are doing and leave them alone!" Ash yells as he shoots out the Rock Blast at the one with the Wings.

"Who are you and how dare you stop us?" The four Cyborgs are now on the ground as Ash and Lillie are doing the same. One of them recognizes the two of them and he says, "Hey, you're Ash Ketchum and Lillie Aether. So the worst enemy of Team Rocket is here, huh?"

"I am glad to be your worst enemy because I intend to stop you from harming Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres!" Lillie says as she fires a Flamethrower at the one with the Ice, and he screams in pain and he says, "You...don't you dare heat up my machine, or you are going to taste the fear of ice."

"That isn't going to scare me." Ash says as they are now in a fight. The others are looking and Kristen says, "Is that really Lillie? She is different when she got serious..."

"That's because she is with Ash." Amber says, trying to let Kristen forget about Ash, but Kristen just gives a growl and she says, "You know, I could have done the same with Lillie if I was in her place."

"I am sure you can." Ruka says. "But for now, it is Ash and Lillie's fight."

As they are fighting, the Legendary Birds know that Ash and Lillie are here as they also help them fight with those four trainers. But just as they are about to win against them, the one with the Ice suddenly slams at Articuno, with the Electric and Fire doing the same thing to Zapdos and Moltres. As for the Flying one, he just slams all three of them after they are on the ground.

"Just how strong are they? To be able to knock down the Legendary Pokemon like that..." Lillie says in horror, but before they are going to do something, the Flying one says, "We have finished our mission, we should retreat."

This causes the others to be confused, but they didn't care much as they quickly rush to the three birds. Ash asks, "Are you okay?"

The three birds are feeling in pain as Brock and Lusamine quickly rush to check their injuries, after a while, Brock says, "Just like Pokemon Battles, their Health Points are damaged, but there is no sickness."

"That's strange, if they are going to capture Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres, why would they leave them here and says that they finished their mission?" Ash asks.

Arceus says, "We don't know, but we will need to bring those three into the ship. Place them into the Cherish Balls."

Ash nods as he does what Arceus commands, and after they are inside the ship, they decide to ask Amber about something since she was forced to work with Team Rocket.

Amber sighs and says, "When I was being a part of Matori Matrix, I found out some news about the Cyborgs. The people you faced are Corey, the Ice Cyborg, Blitz, the Electric Cyborg, Honoka, the Fire Cyborg, and finally, Hitomi, the Flying Cyborg. Each of the Cyborg can use Pokemon moves through the machines that are attached to their bodies, and each Cyborg uses different type."

"So that's why there are 18 of them...one of each type..." Adam mutters. "But where do they get those powers from the Machine..."

Amber says, "I think I know what Team Rocket is thinking. Do you know why they try to steal other people's Pokemon?"

"Aren't they are just going to be Giovanni's Pokemon?" Delia asks, and Amber shakes her head, "No, they are going to drain their energies and transfers to the machines."

This causes everyone to widen their eyes, Ash says, "So does that mean..."

"Corey, Blitz, Honoka, and Hitomi might have absorbed the powers of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. They might be going for other Legendary Pokemon so that they will be unbeatable."

"And we can't let that happen." Ash says as he turns to Clemont, "Clemont, have you managed to find out how those machines work and how to destroy them?"

Clemont is now typing on the computer and he says, "I am sorry, Ash. But the pictures you have given me aren't enough to know how they work and their weakness."

Ash and Lillie frown and Lillie says, "It's fine, Clemont. You have done your best."

"Right now we just need to know where their next location is." Lusamine suggests, and Ruka says, "But how are we going to know where are they going next? And I mean...if the four Cyborgs are that strong, what about the other 14? They might be as strong as them."

"Or even stronger." Lillie says. "There is one thing that I learned from Ash, that is never giving up until it is over."

"You're right." Ash says, "And if my memory is correct, they might be heading for Mewtwo and Mew. This means we are going to the New Island."

"New Island?" The others are confused, but Ash doesn't say anymore as he goes to the pilot's seat as he is going to fly the plane, much to everyone's confusion and horror.

"Are you going to fly the plane yourself?" Adam asks, and Ash says, "Trust me, Uncle Rose has taught me how to fly this thing."

The others can only nod as they see where Ash is going to fly.


Here is a new chapter, and with the Legendary Birds, their fight against the Cyborgs is going to begin. Amber also stated the purpose of Team Rocket is that they are going to use Cyborgs to control the world, and those cyborgs are going to absorb the powers of the Legendary Pokemon to become stronger and stronger. I hope you like this chapter and the next one will be Mewtwo and Mew.
