Maxie's
Real Plan
Disclaimer: We own nothing, sweet nothing.....hey
look, a hundred dollar bill! picks it up (Thought) Think off all
the pennies I could buy! (end
though)
A
young girl with a black headband, shoulder length red hair, a white
tanktop, and army-print khaki pants peered over the man's soaked
body. Her eyes constantly flicked to the left. She got up, and walked
inside the building as she glanced at him. She returned a few minutes
later, a man wearing a turrban, a few wisps of his hair hanging on
the sides following the girl.
"I found him floating next
to the Gym, so Kyo and I brought him and some others to shore, but
half of them must've drowned, and I found half of a submarine
periscope over there and-"
"Hush, Mal." Wallace
scolded, and checked the man over.
"Sorry,
Uncle."
Wallace shut his eyes and thought for a minute.
"Go inside and bring a blanket out here, then make some of your
soup." He said.
Mal nodded. "Yes, Uncle." She
replied, and ran inside the Gym. She returned a few minutes later
with a steaming bowl of broth in one hand, and blanket in the other.
She covered the man with the blanket, then gave the bowl of broth to
Wallace, who spooned some down the man's throat.
"Think
he's okay?" Mal asked.
"Probably, though he seems to
be slightly familiar," Wallace answered. "Not sure if I
should be naive when he wakes up." Wallace then spooned some of
the warmliquid down the man's
throat.

"Ugh....What happened?" Maxie asked, and sat up. Wallace put his hand on Maxie's back to support him.
"My niece here found you floating next to the Gym's coastline, you're in Sootopolis City." Wallace answered. "First of all, who are you, and why would you be floating around here?"
Maxie hesitated. "My name is Matsubusa Enzé, my submarine was wrecked when it was somehow attacked by-" Maxie paused as his eye caught a Wartortle standing next to Mal.
"That Wartortle....."
Mal frowned. "Kyo wouldn't do that......She never has....." Mal said, and looked at Kyarorain.
Kyo nodded, and folded her arms.
"It may have been a Relicanth, there's supposed ot be a few rough ones down there." Wallace said.
Maxie didn't say anything. "I suppose you're right....Do either of you know where the Cave of Origin is? I'd like to have a look at the cave drawings in there."
Mal nodded. "Yeah, I'm a guide there, I can show you." She said, and stood up. Wallace helped Maxie up, who followed Mal, and Kyo ran up to them.
"So is Kyo short for something?" Maxie asked.
"Yeah, for Kyarorain." Mal answered, and ran ahead. Maxie growled, then ran after her. Kyo followed them.
They eventually made it to the Cave of Origin. Now Mal spoke up.
"The Cave of Origin entrance lies here, between these two ancient statues. They're pretty beat up, but I think one is Kyogre, the other might br Groudon." She said.
Mal took a match out of her pocket and lit a lantern on the floor, then picked it up. She and Kyo walked into the cavern, and Kyo motioned for Maxie to follow her. Maxie nodded, and followed, playing Mal's little game.....for a while.....
Mal guided maxie through a few tunnels, and they finally came to a large room. Mal walked over to one of the walls, and held up her lantern. "This one here," She began. "Is supposed to be a drawing of Groudon and Kyogre, with the Ruby and Sapphire Orbs in the background. But because of the small opening in the cavern roof," She pointed up, revealing a small, dripping leak. "The picture is becoming withered."
Kyo walked to the opposite side of the room Mal was in, and waved her hands so Mal would notice her. Mal nodded, and walked over to Kyo. She moved out of the way, and Mal traced her fingers over the wall.
"The drawing here, in perfect condition, is of the Soul Dew, along with two Pokémon carved into that, Latios and Latias. Legends say that the Soul Dew lies in the depths of the caverns.Personally, I think it's true. Although nobody is allowed past this point, as my boss, Mr. Avalon, would get all jacked out of shape and probably fire me." Mal said, and frowned slightly.
"Is there any way you'd let me go deeper?" Maxie asked, and held out a hundred dollar bill.
Mal shook her head. "No way, I'm not gonna risk being fired. The whole purpose you can't is because Mr. Avalon is afraid that the Magma leader may be in disguise and try to get through."
Mal bit his lip. "I'll only take a few minutes, I promise."
"No."
Maxie scowled. "Don't test my patience, girl..."
"No! I won't let you go!" Mal cried.
"I've tried to be nice, and now my patience has worn out!" Maxie shouted, and slapped Mal across the face. She gasped, and fell down next to Kyo. Kyo gasped, and kneeled down next to her friend's side. Mal told her she was okay.
Kyo got up, and ran towards Maxie, but because of her slow speed, she failed to attack him. Maxie grinned evilly, then smiled at Mal.
"Farewell, my dear!" He said, and ran off into the depths of the cavern.
Mal and Kyo stared down the tunnel he went through, and Mal stood up. "I'll be fired for sure...." She muttered sadly, then walked over to Kyo.
"I'm fine, Kyo, just a bit worried."
Footsteps were heard as a figure ran through the cavern. Mal turned her head, and faced the figure.
"Hey, if you're here for a tour, now's not the time, there's been a crisis."
"My name is Karania, I have come to stop the man who was in here." She said sternly.
Mal raised an eyebrow. "And what makes you so important, Ms. Heroine?"
"Karania Avalon." Karania answered.
Mal gasped. "Ohmigosh! I'm so sorry!" She apologized. "I had no clue, please forgive me!"
Karania nodded. "But now is not the time to socialize, I have to stop Maxie from getting to the end of this cavern."
"Maxie?"
"Yes, Maxie. The man who was just with you, He is the Team Magma leader, Maximus Blaire Firestorm."
Mal sighed, and looked at her feet. "I shoulda known....I can't believe this happened....."
"Now's not the time to feel sorry for yourslf, let's go!" Karania cried, and grabbed Mal's lantern, then ran ahead.
"You know the way through here?" Mal asked while running.
"Yes, I was the one who stopped Maxie from capturing Groudon."
"Wow...." Mal said, amazed.
The two, plus Kyo, continued running through the cavern, their hopes set on stopping Maxie.
