Episode 472: Pokémon: Half-Shell Heroes Part 5
Sora, Kairi, Terra, Cilan, Leo, Raph, April, Casey, and the Pokémon all stood before Valiant. A battle was about to start between them.
"How do you wanna do this?" Sora asked.
"All six of mine against the six of yours," Valiant said. "I'm going to enjoy every moment of this."
"Bring it on!" Sora said. He turned to Durant. "You're up first, Durant!" The iron ant Pokémon stepped in when Valiant took out an Ultra Ball and threw it.
"Go! Absol!" Valiant called out. His Absol came on out. Sora could sense something off about Absol. He used his ability and he saw some kind of aura. It wasn't anything he has ever seen. It gave off a demonic red aura.
"What is that? That is something I never seen before. There's no way that kind of aura is natural," Sora said.
"Absol! Use Slash!" Valiant ordered. Absol came right at Durant with Slash.
"Dodge it!" Sora called out. Durant dodges Absol's attack. "Use Iron Head!" Durant heads right towards Absol with Iron Head.
"Dodge and use Flamethrower!" Valiant ordered. Durant gets struck hard, dealing some heavy damage into Durant. Sora calls back Durant and looked right at Bouffalant.
"Move right in, Bouffalant! Megahorn!" Sora ordered. Bouffalant charged right at the disaster Pokémon, landing a heavy blow. "Now use Giga Impact!" Bouffalant charged right at Absol with Giga Impact and he lands a heavy blow. Absol had been taken down. Valiant snarled in anger and took out three more Ultra Balls before he threw them.
"Muk, Slowking, Electivire!" Valiant shouted. His three Pokémon came on out as Sora has sensed the same kind of aura from them.
"It's just like Absol. What is going on and how are they soaked with that aura?" Sora asked in his thoughts.
"What do you think you're doing?" Terra asked.
"Is that allowed?" Casey asked.
"Not that I know of," Cilan said.
"I don't think he's interested in playing by the rules," Terra said. Excadrill, Sigilyph, and Heatmor stepped in to battle against the three Pokémon.
"Muk! Sludge Wave! Slowking! Ice Beam! Electivire! Electric Terrain!" Valiant ordered. Muk fired Sludge Bomb as Slowking Fires Ice Beam. Electivire creates a dome of yellow energy that surrounds it, Slowking, Muk, Heatmor, Sigilyph, and Excadrill. Excadrill took the hit from Sludge Wave. The Poison Type move does nothing to him due to Excadrill being a Steel Type Pokémon. Sigilyph dodges Ice Beam.
"Didn't that hurt Excadrill?" April asked.
"No, because Excadrill is a Steel Type. Steel Type Pokémon are immune to Poison Type moves," Cilan said. He stroked his chin. "But Electric Terrain is a whole different number, because it raises the powers if Electric Type moves greatly. And it helps out Pikachu."
"Rising Voltage!" Valiant ordered. Electivire raises one of its arms as streams of electricity rises from the ground, shocking Heatmor and Sigilyph. Sigilyph has taken heavier damage due to his weakness to Electric Type moves. Luckily, Excadrill's resistance to Electric Type moves came in handy. Sigilyph has been taken down as Sora calls Sigilyph back. Heatmor was still in it.
"Heatmor! Fire Lash! Excadrill! Drill Run!" Sora ordered. Heatmor uses his fiery tongue as a whip and whips Electivire hard. Excadrill puts his arms up to his head and forms his body into a drill. He then jumps into the air and rotates his body while charging at the tbunderbolt Pokémon, stabbing it with his drill-like body. Electivire took a heavy blow from Excadrill's Drill Run. "Now, use Dig!" Excadrill goes into his subterranean form and dug into the ground. The Technodrome's tech has taken some bad damage due to Excadrill's metallic claws. Excadrill then came and lands a hit onto Electivire.
"Muk! Use Fire Punch! Slowking! Scald!" Valiant ordered. Muk gave Excadrill a fiery punch as Slowking unleashed some hot water from its mouth. Excadrill has taken some heavy damage. Valiant laughed. "Your Pokémon are weak and pathetic! There's no way you can win!"
"Don't be so sure!" Sora countered. He turned to Pikachu. "Okay, Pikachu! Thunder!" Sora ordered. Pikachu unleashed Thunder, shocking of Electivire, Muk and Slowking. Muk and Slowking were taken down, but Electivire was still standing. He called Muk and Slowking back as he took out two more Ultra Balls and threw them. Out came a couple more Ultra Balls and threw them.
"Tyranitar and Metagross! Go!" Valiant called out. His Tyranitar and Metagross came out as Sora has detected the same strange aura coming from them.
"Just as I thought. The same kind of aura coming from Valiant. How are they doing that? What kind of power is it? And most importantly, who's behind it?" Sora asked in his thoughts."
"Tyranitar! Hydro Pump! Metagross! Meteor Beam! Electivire! Rising Voltage!" Valiant ordered. Tyranitar fires Hydro Pump as Metagross has begun to give off a cosmic glow, preparing to fire. Electivire then unleashes electricity from the ground as Heatmor and Pikachu took some heavy hits from that move. Heatmor had been taken down. Bouffalant stepped right in to take Heatmor's place in battle. "Send in as many Pokémon you want, Sora, because I will crush them and you!"
"I won't give up! Zest never gave up, so why should I?" Sora asked. Valiant growled in anger when Sora said it to him.
"You are really pissing me off!" Valiant shouted. "Giga Impact, all three of you!" Tyranitar, Metagross, and Electivire all charged right at Pikachu, Bouffalant, and Excadrill.
"Dodge!" Sora called out. Pikachu and Excadrill successfully dodged while Bouffalant was hit and taken down. Sora calls Bouffalant back. Sora knew that battles from before has taken their tole onto Bouffalant, so he had to let him rest. Sora took out Durant's Pokéball and threw it. "Back to action, Durant!" Durant came on out to battle. He was still tired out from the battle with Absol. "I know you're tired, Durant, but I know you can still fight. Just keep at it."
"Sora, this is your chance!" Kairi called out to her boyfriend.
"Right! Durant! Iron Head on Tyranitar!" Sora ordered. Durant rammed his head onto Tyranitar, causing some heavy damage. "Now, use X-Scissor!" Durant gave Tyranitar an X-Scissor in the chest. "Excadrill! Metal Claw onto Metagross! Pikachu! Thunderbolt on Electivire!" Excadrill and Pikachu lands their attacks onto Metagross and Electivire.
"He's much stronger than I thought," Valiant said in his thoughts. "It doesn't matter, because he'll fall by my hands! And then, revenge will be mine! Garland will finally be avaneged!"
"Sora has this in the bag now," Raph said.
"As if! I have this in the bag!" Valiant exclaimed. "All of you! Attack them now!" Electivire, Tyranitar, and Metagross all come charging at them.
"Durant! Protect!" Sora ordered. Durant uses Protect to block their assault. "Excadrill! Drill Run!" Excadrill uses Drill Run and it lands a hit onto each one of them. "Pikachu! Thunder! Full Power!" Pikachu unleashed a powerful Thunder, shocking all three of them. "Iron Tail on Electivire!" Pikachu swings his tail and lands a hit onto Electivire, knocking it out. Valiant was angered as he calls back his three fallen Pokémon.
"Once again, the blood of Garland fails to defeat the blood of Zest!" Valiant exclaimed, gritting his teeth. "Mark my words, Sora Ketchum, I will be back, and when I do, I'll have my revenge for this outrage, even if it takes me forever to do so!" Valiant took his leave of the Technodrome. Sora calls back Durant and Excadrill.
"Take five, guys. You should rest," Sora said. Kairi placed her hand on his shoulder.
"You did great, Sora," Kairi said.
"It was a five-star battle, Sora," Cilan said.
"Yeah, but something was off about those Pokémon," Sora said.
"Something off?" April asked.
"What do you mean, Sora?" Terra asked.
"I'm not really sure, you couldn't see it, but they were giving off a weird aura. It something I never saw before," Sora said.
"Maybe the others should hear about it later," Terra said.
"Yeah. I'm not sure if I was getting it," Sora said.
Golbez, Shredder, and Kraang were watching closely.
"Those creatures are even more amazing than I thought. I am even more curious about them a whole lot more," Kraang said.
"Is that what you meant by him not being mere?" Shredder asked.
"Yes and no. I meant that there is more to him than meets the eye. I suspected that Valiant was going to lose since he had been betrayed by his emotions. His desire for revenge is what got in his way," Golbez said. "And when you see it with your own eyes, then you shall understand."
Shredder was still skeptical about Sora's value as Kraang was very curious.
Over to Karen, Ven, Aqua, Iris, Mikey, Donnie, Irma, Rydia, Meowth, Blossom, Sparky, and Eclair, they stood before Leatherhead. The mutant alligator was ready to chew them up.
"It's now lunchtime," Leatherhead said, coming at them. They all dodged the charge of Leatherhead, but he came right at them for a second time. Mikey swung his nunchucks and smacked Leatherhead.
"Take that, Leatherhead!" Mikey said.
"Sparky! Quick Attack!" Ventus ordered. Sparky dashed right at the mutant alligator, making him wheeze. He looked right at Ventus.
"Boy, you are just as annoying as a fly on a summer day in the swamp!" Leatherhead roared. Rydia took out a Pokéball and opened it.
"Come out, Altaria!" Rydia called out. Her Altaria came out of the Pokéball. Her Altaria is yellow. Stars swirls around it upon entry.
"A Shiny Altaria!" Aqua exclaimed.
"Pika," Eclair said.
"Altaria! Use Dragon Dance, and then use Dragon Breath!" Rydia ordered. Altaria uses Dragon Dance to build up its speed and attack. Altaria then unleashed Dragon Breath, hitting Leatherhead on the mark. "Now, use Aerial Ace!" Altaria darts right into the mutant alligator.
"I knew I should have stayed in the Florida swamp! It's a whole lot safer there!" Leatherhead said, crashing into the wall. Leatherhead has been knocked right out.
"That takes care of him," Rydia said.
"That was awesome," Mikey said.
"What was that just now?" Donnie asked.
"Oh that. Altaria's attack and speed increased because of Dragon Dance. So Altaria's attacks came out so much faster and stronger than it normally would have been," Rydia said.
"Well done, a voice spoke. They turned to see Splinter.
"Master Splinter," Donnie said.
"When did you get here?" Mikey asked.
"Not too long," Splinter replied.
"Another mutant?" Rydia asked.
"That's Splinter. He's their mentor, and adoptive father," Karen said.
"Pikachu," Blossom said.
"Glad you showed up, Splinter. We were going to meet up with the others after dealing with Team Shadow and the Foot," Irma said.
"Now to Shredder and Kraang," Splinter said.
Over to Sora, Kairi, Terra, Cilan, Leo, Raph, April, Casey, and the Pokémon, Kairi had called back, Sawsbuck, Unfezant, Gothorita, Lilligant, and Swanna inside their Pokéballs to rest as they were searching for the others when someone familiar to Leo, Raph, April, and Casey appeared before them.
"Who are you?" Kairi asked.
"I am Karai. I am the Shredder's daughter," Karai said.
"Daughter?" Sora asked in surprise.
"It's true," Leo said, drawing his swords. "He's not just Shredder's daughter, but she's also his second-in-command."
"So, I call her the Princess of the Foot," Raph said. Karai drew her swords. "I have no quarrel with the children; my business is with the turtles."
"Karai, you're one of the most honorable warriors I have ever known," Leo said. "Shredder has no honor. If you want to restore honor to the Foot, then join us and fight against him."
"I will not betray my father, Leonardo," Karai said. "Just as you will not betray your father."
"Karai, I am giving you a choice," Leo said.
"Forget it, Leo," Raph said. "You heard her. She won't turn her back on her daddy. And even if she was on our side, it wouldn't be for real!"
"You don't know that, Raph!" Leo argued.
"I know even Mikey isn't dumb enough to trust her!" Raph argued back.
"Karai, we need to access the dimensional teleporter just to send you back to your home dimension! Doesn't that mean a thing to you?" Sora asked.
"I am where the Shredder needs me. After all, blood is thicker than water," Karai said. She leapt up in the air to strike. Leo clashed his blades with hers.
"Sora, Kairi, meet up with the others, I got this!" Leo said.
"But, Leo!" Sora said.
"I can handle her! Just go!" Leo said.
"Leo's a big boy, so he can handle himself," Casey said.
"For once, I agree," Raph said. He turned to his brother. "If you don't survive, I'm going to kick your ass!"
"Don't worry, Raph, I'll survive. Shredder came close to killing me before, and he didn't succeed," Leo said.
With that said, Sora, Kairi, Terra, Cilan, Raph, April, Casey, Pikachu, Angel, Thor, and Solosis went off to join the others as Zorua followed them. Leo and Karai had already started fighting before they could notice.
Two Team Shadow peons were downloading some of the Technodrome's dimensional teleporter's data into their main computer.
"Ein will be thrilled have this into his database," one Team Shadow peon said.
"It sure is," another Team Shadow peon agreed. "The distraction is going along smoothly. I think he knew that Sora kid was going to show up."
"Yeah. I wonder what he has planned next?" The first Team Shadow peon asked.
"He just told us to wait for further orders once we were done," the second Team Shadow peon said.
Back to Team Shadow HQ, Ein is retrieving the data Technodrome's dimensional teleporter into his personal computer.
"Beautiful. Who would have thought that alien technology from another dimension would be so valuable?" Ein asked. Just then, Mateus walked in.
"Ein, how goes the download?" Mateus asked.
"It's downloading as we speak, Master Mateus," Ein answered. "This incredible power will soon be in our hands. Ever since the Brotherhood of Darkness came into our world, I have been fascinated with dimensional travels! There is an infinite amount of possibilities! What we could we see and where we might go."
"Yes, your fascination is what I share with you, Ein," Matues said. "Golbez and his squad are doing an excellent job. And what news have you heard?"
"I have learned that Sora Ketchum and his friends had arrived in the Technodrome. And they have allied themselves with four humanoid turtles," Ein said. Mateus stroked his chin.
"I see," Mateus said. "They might be attempting to stop Shredder from making a settlement here. It makes no difference to me, because whether if Shredder and Kraang destroys them, or if they defeat them, we win no matter the outcome." Ein grinned evilly, having to hear Mateus say that Team Shadow wins no matter what.
Back to the Technodrome, Sora, Kairi, Terra, Cilan, Raph, April, Casey, Pikachu, Angel, Thor, and Solosis made it through the Technodrome as they met up with the rest of their friends.
"Guys, you're safe," Sora said.
"Right back at you," Ventus said.
Irma noticed that Leo wasn't with them at all. Sora, Kairi, Terra, and Cilan noticed Rydia is with them.
"Rydia? What are you doing here?" Sora asked.
"Long story," Rydia said. "And there's no time to explain it."
"Where's Leo?" Irma asked.
"He's dealing with Karai," Raph said.
"Who's Karai?" Iris asked.
"Shredder's daughter and second-in-command," Donnie said. "I can bet that he's trying to reason with her again."
"You don't need to be a brainiac to figure that out, Donnie," Raph said.
"While he's keeping her busy, we still have Shredder and Kraang to deal with," Sora said.
"Yes," Splinter agreed. "They must be stopped at all costs."
With that said, the group went to find the villains and put a stop to them. Just then, Shredder appeared before them.
"Turtles, how good of you to come along," Shredder said.
"That's him, right? The Shredder?" Sora asked.
"That's him," Raph said.
"You've done well to make it this far; but this is as far as you will go," Shredder said. "Even with your leader right beside you, you're still no match for me."
"Don't be too sure, Shredder. We'll take you down fast and hard!" Raph said.
"You are welcome to try," Shredder said. Raph, Donnie, and Mikey took out their weapons and engaged the Shredder. Donnie moved in first to deliver a hit with his bo, but Shredder took it out of his hands and used it to trip him. Mikey swung his nunchucks around, but Shredder easily dodges the assault and gave him an uppercut as Raph came right at him with his sais. Shredder gave him a punch in the gut, bringing him down. "Pathetic. No matter how hard you train, but you will never be a match for me." He was about to finish them off as Splinter uses his walking stick to block Shredder's gauntlets. "You! Hamato Yoshi's pet rat!"
"Saki, you have no place in this or any world," Splinter said. "Everything you touch dies! My master wasn't enough for you, but you would try to take my sons from me! I will not let it stand!"
"It is because of your master that Tang Shen is dead! He stole her from me! And since I couldn't have her, then no one will!" Shredder said.
"Tang Shen was never yours! She never loved you, and you couldn't handle it! Because of your jealousy and hatred, you lead the Foot down a path of dishonor and disgrace!" Splinter said. Shredder came running at Splinter as Raph, Donnie, and Mikey stood back up.
"You and your sons are what Hamato Yoshi represents! Everything I have dedicated my life in destroying!" Shredder said. "And even if it means letting the world burn!" Sora didn't like how that came out, so he unleashed an orb of his aura power and it struck Shredder. It cracked his face plate, revealing his scarred face. He looked right at Sora with a face of disbelief. "What are you, child?"
"Just someone who doesn't like your attitude," Sora said. "I heard what I needed to know. Hamato Yoshi was your brother and your friend. He gave you friendship, and how do you repay him? You killed him when you tried to take everything he loved by force! Tang Shen wouldn't wanted this from you!"
"What would a child like you know?" Shredder asked.
"More than you think! Revenge only makes things worse for you! You can kill Splinter and his sons, but it won't change what happened, and it won't bring Tang Shen back to you!" Sora said.
"Do not speak her name to me!" Shredder came running towards Sora, intended to kill him. Kairi ran into his arms, but he pushes out of harm's way and unleashed another blast of his aura. The blast sends Shredder back and it sends him against a wall. Blood gushed from his mouth. He wiped the blood from his chin. He looked right at Sora. "What is he, some kind of akuma? Or is he something completely different?" He then remembered what Golbez meant before. "Could this what he referred to?"
Over to Leo and Karai, their fight continued all throughout the Technodrome. Not one of them was able to give in, nor did one get the best over the other. They clashed their blades as sparks literally flashed.
"You're actually fighting better than the first time we fought, Leonardo," Karai said.
"I was careless when we first met. I told you then, that I won't make that mistake, and I kept my word up to this day," Leo said.
"That you have," Karai said. "And with your skills, you would have been a fine ninja for the Foot."
"I made my choice, Karai," Leo stated. They continued their fight as Karai threw a couple of shurikens right at Leo, but he counters with some shurikens of his own.
Karai dodges them with ease. Leo took out his bombs and threw them on the ground. The smoke clears to see the eldest Ninja Turtle gone, but he reappeared as he went right beside her. He grabbed her swords and tossed them aside. He points one of his swords right at her.
"You will have to finish me, Leonardo," Karai said.
"No," Leo simply said. "There's no honor in slaying an unarmed opponent. Shredder may do it, but I will not. And I know you won't either. Just because you're his daughter, doesn't mean that you're anything like him."
"My father would call you a spinless coward for sparring my life, but I would not. Because you are honorable as well," Karai said. "You may savor your victory for now, but mark my words, you will not be so fortunate the next time our paths cross." Karai stood and took her leave. Leo sheaths his swords and took off to find the rest of the group.
Back to the fight with Shredder. Splinter, Raph, Donnie, and Mikey went back to fighting him.
"This ends here, Shredder!" Splinter said, swing his walking stick, but Shredder blocks. Shredder swings his gauntlet at him, but Raph, blocks with his sai as Mikey uses his nunchucks to bind his arms.
"You think you can defeat me?! I am the Shredder! I will not lose to the likes of you!" Shredder exclaimed, breaking free of his restraints. Zorua caught up and took on the form of Sora and he leapt into action. Zorua's newly formed hands becomes surrounded in a crimson aura. Zorua gave Shredder a punch into Shredder's chest, sending him flying against a wall. Zorua turned and gave a mischievous grin as it chuckled.
"Two Sora's?!" Mikey exclaimed. Sora used his aura ability on Zorua.
"So that's it," Sora said. "You might as well show everyone else. I know what you really are." Everyone were dumbfounded as Zorua reverted back to its real form.
"What is that?" Raph asked.
"Ah, it's a Zorua," Cilan said.
"A Zorua?" Donnie asked.
"Yes. Zorua has the ability to take on the forms of whatever it comes across. I suspected either a Zorua or a Zoroark when it attacked Shredder with Night Daze," Cilan said.
"How did Zorua get here?" Ventus asked.
"Zorua, Zor, Zor," Zorua said.
"Meowth, translation?" Sora asked.
"Zorua just said that he was following us," Meowth translated.
"Rua, Zor, Zorua, Zorua, Zorua," Zorua said.
"He's been following us for a little while," Meowth translated.
"Say, if he could take the appearance of Sora, does that mean, he can take our forms, too?" Mikey asked.
"Of course," Cilan said.
Zorua chuckled as he took on the forms of Terra, as well as Ventus, Pikachu, Meowth, Druddigon, Cilan, Leo, Raph, Donnie, Mikey, Splinter, and the rest. Zorua reverts back to his real form.
"Cool," Mikey said.
"Is there something they can't do?" Donnie asked.
"Okay, let's get to the dimensional teleporter before he comes to," Sora said. Everyone all agreed when Shredder spoke up.
"Too late for that," Shredder spoke. They turned to see Shredder, barely standing back on his feet. "I am not easily defeated. The only way to get to Kraang is through me!"
"Doesn't he ever give up?" Iris asked.
"No, he doesn't," Raph said.
Raph, Donnie, and Mikey got their weapons ready.
"You will all die here," Shredder said, getting his gauntlets ready as Zorua took Shredder's form and used Night Daze again. He tossed Shredder back to Donnie as he gave him a kick on the side. Raph grabbed Shredder and banged his head against the wall a few times. He broke out of Raph's hold and gave him a punch on the face, and threw him on the ground. Mikey attempted to come to the rescue, but Shredder overwhelmed him just as easily. Splinter sprang into action again to defend his sons. The two of them fought on as one wasn't gaining the upper hand on the other. The fight went on until Shredder threw him on the ground. Shredder was about to finish him off when Leo threw a few shurikens at him. Shredder blocked with his gauntlets when he saw him. "I knew Karai couldn't finish you off, Leonardo."
"I wouldn't want to miss this, Shredder. Now it's time to end this," Leo said, drawing out his swords. He and Shredder lunged at each other. Leo swung his swords as Shredder dodged his swings and swung his gauntlets. Leo also dodged. Leo was about to give Shredder a stab when Shredder stopped him by catching his sword with his bare hands.
"Foolish child! I have been trained by the greatest ninja masters in all of Japan! Nothing you have has any surprise for me! You should know that by now!" Shredder said.
"And you should know by now-" Leo said, giving Shredder a low kick, making him trip, "that we turtles fights with honor. Something you don't have." Shredder stood back on his feet.
"You have gotten stronger than the first time we fought, Leonardo, but as I told your brothers, you can train with the rodent forever, but you will never be a match for me!" Shredder came right Leo as he came right at Shredder. Their blades clashed with each other and they held on tight. Leo's swords cuts through the blades on his gauntlets and he gave Shredder one more kick. "Finish me off, Leonardo. End this." Leo would have easily finished off Shredder, but instead, he sheaths his swords.
"No," Leo said. "It won't end like this. Because I'm not like you. And..." Leo said, using the technique Splinter taught him. He aimed for his pressure points, rendering him temporarily numb. "Sit and meditate for a while."
"What did you do?" Sora asked.
"Just immobilized him. It should last for the next several hours," Leo said.
"That gives us a reason to get to Kraang and put an end to this," Terra said.
"Terra's right. We should move," April said.
With that said, the group went towards Kraang's lab to end the fight. Golbez and Kraang were watching the fight.
"No surprise to me that Shredder failed to destroy them again," Kraang said.
"I can understand your history with those creatures," Golbez said.
"The way that one boy has unleashed his power from his hands, no creature in Dimension X has that ability, nor any creature on my earth. Can you explain this to me?" Kraang asked.
"Of course," Golbez answered. "He is known as an Aura User. That power is what I was referring to earlier. He has the ability to look into the auras of any living creatures. Until before his journey in the Sinnoh region, he was unaware of his incredible power."
"I see," Kraang said, intrigued. "You must have known that Shredder will fail just like I did."
"Precisely," Golbez said.
"If only I can see that power for myself," Kraang said.
"I believe that you will have your chance, Kraang," Golbez said. "All we have to do is allow them to come."
"Agreed," Kraang said. "Let's what the Earthlings would say, roll out the red carpet."
Sora, Kairi, Karen, Ventus, Terra, Aqua, Cilan, Iris, the Pokémon, the Ninja Turtles, April, Casey, Irma, Splinter, and Rydia has finally made it to Kraang's lab. They opened the doors to see Kraang and Golbez standing before them.
"There he is! It's Kraang!" Mikey said. "No idea who the other dude is."
"Golbez," Rydia said.
"Golbez?" Sora asked.
"The famous Sora Ketchum; at last we meet face-to-face. I have heard you have given some of my colleagues some great deal of trouble," Golbez said.
"You're with Team Shadow?" Sora asked.
"That I am," Golbez said. "Miror B, Lovrina, and Dakim were just worms compared to me."
"The same can be said for the Shredder. He was thinking of ways of how he would like to kill me, but that would require him to outthink me, and no one can outthink the mind of Kraang the Conqueror!" Kraang stated.
"Funny, we were able to outthink you, Kraang!" Donnie said.
"Not this time! I have grown quite fond of this world, so I think I'll stick around!" Kraang said. "Those creatures would make useful test subjects for my mutagen. I am anxious to see what kind of mutants they would mutate into. And the same can be said for the rest of you when I make you a part of my mutant army."
"Not if we have anything to say, Kraang!" Sora countered.
"That remains to be seen," Kraang said. He activates his robot body and he moved right towards the group. The Ninja Turtles have engaged Kraang.
"That leaves you and me, Sora," Golbez said.
"No," Rydia said. She stepped in. "I'll take you."
"You think you can best me?" Golbez asked.
"I was careless the last time, but this time, I won't make that mistake," Rydia said, taking out a Pokéball and threw it. "Go! Dragonite!" Her Dragonite emerged from inside. Golbez took out an Ultra Ball and threw it.
"Come forth, Hydreigon!" Golbez called out. Hydreigon came on out to battle. "Begin with Dark Pulse!" Hydreigon unleashed Dark Pulse right at the dragon Pokémon.
"Dodge it!" Rydia called out. Dragonite dodges Hydreigon's attack by flying in the air. "Now, use Hurricane!" Dragonite flaps its wings and releases multiple green crecent-shaped blades of energy or a powerful gust of wind from them atHydreigon. The brutal Pokémon got struck hard by the attack and went down. "Now, use Dragon Claw!" Dragonite flew right at Hydreigon with its claws giving off a dragonish aura.
"I think not! Dragon Pulse!" Golbez ordered. Hydreigon unleashed Dragon Pulse and it lands a hit onto Dragonite. The dragon Pokémon lands on its back. "Excellent! Now, use Heat Wave!" Hydreigon unleashed Heat Wave, landing a hit onto Dragonite. Rydia froze at the sight of the fire attack. Her memories were starting to haunt her. "Dragon Pulse!" Hydreigon prepares to unleash another Dragon Pulse, when Pikachu, Angel, Blossom, Sparky, Thor, Eclair, Zorua, and Solosis stepped in. Solosis used Protect to block Dragon Pulse. This surprises Golbez greatly. "What's this?"
"They won't let you have your way, Golbez!" Sora said.
"I suppose you think you can win, after the energy you have wasted?" Golbez asked.
"We can try just about anything!" Sora said.
"That's telling him, Sora!" Kairi said.
"How about we just cut the crap, and get this over with!" Casey said, heading towards Golbez. "Goongala!" He attempted to strike Golbez, when Hydreigon stopped him with a Dark Pulse. Casey is struck.
"Casey!" April gasped.
"That was low, Golbez!" Sora shouted. "Pikachu! Thunderbolt!" Pikachu unleashed their Thunderbolt attacks right at Hydreigon.
"Angel! Swift!" Kairi ordered.
"Thunderbolt!" Karen, Ventus, Terra, and Aqua also ordered.
They all unleashed their attacks, but Hydreigon unleashed Dragon Pulse to block as Zorua has fired a Shadow Ball, and Solosis has unleashed Psybeam. The combined attacks results in an explosion. They shielded their eyes and covered their mouths, not wanting to breathe in the smoke. When it cleared, Golbez was gone.
"Where did he go?" April asked.
"He must have used the explosion to escape," Cilan said.
As for the turtles, the fight between them and Kraang went continued as Kraang grabbed Raph and Mikey, and swung them around.
"I'm going to hurl!" Mikey exclaimed.
"Don't you dare hurl on me, Mikey!" Raph said. Kraang threw them as Donnie ducked as Leo got hit by Mikey coming at him.
"Donnie!" Sora called out to the purple-clad turtle. "You know how to use the dimensional teleporter, don't you?"
"Of course. It's really child's play when you put it that way," Donnie said.
"We'll need you to use it, because you're the only one who can use it!" Sora said.
"Okay! I'll give it a shot!" Donnie said. He heads right towards the dimensional teleporter, catching Kraang's notice.
"Stay away from that!" Kraang demanded. He was about to stop them when Leo sliced the robot's arms off. "Oh, I just had those done!" Raph slashed the legs with his sais as Mikey pulled the little alien from inside. "No! Not again!"
"It's over, lame brain!" Mikey said.
Donnie has set the coordinates to their Earth, and the timer has been set to five minutes.
"Okay! The clock is set! You got five minutes before the Technodrome teleports back to our home dimension! You gotta get out before it does!" Donnie said.
"Yeah, we're going home!" Mikey said.
"Sorry we can't stick around, Sora, but you know what's at stake!" Leo said.
"It was a thrill to see you guys again!" Sora said. "And maybe we can go for some pizza when we meet again!"
"Count on it!" Leo said. He and Sora high-five each other as Sora, Kairi, Ventus, Terra, Aqua, Cilan, Iris, Rydia, and the Pokémon all rush to get out of the Technodrome.
"Take care of yourselves and each other!" April called out. Sora gave a thumbs up.
"You do the same thing!" Kairi said.
The group all raced out of the Technodrome as fast as they could. The timer was going down as they eventually made it to the entrance. Zorua was first to get out as the rest followed. Zorua kept on running as the rest has made a stop as the Technodrome has teleported completely out of sight.
"Leo, Raph, Donnie, Mikey, thanks," Sora said.
The Technodrome has successfully made it back to their Earth. They were now underground.
"Donnie, did it work?" Leo asked.
"Yep, it worked! We're all right where we should be," Donnie said.
"Cowabunga, we made it back!" Mikey said.
"It cannot be! I would have conquered that world! You turtles ruined everything! Everythi-" Kraang ranted as Raph gave him a toss.
"Shut up!" Raph said.
"Now that we're back, let's get out of here," Casey said.
"You read my mind, Casey," Leo said. "We'll have to settle it for another time."
The Ninja Turtles, Splinter, and their human friends heads out to escape the Technodrome since they were tired from all the fighting they were doing.
Back on Twist Mountain, the fight with the Foot was over, but the fight with Team Shadow was going to continue on.
"Where did Zorua go?" Ventus asked.
"Not exactly sure," Terra said.
"I have a feeling that we're going to see that little guy again," Sora said. "But for right now, how about we call it a breather and make camp here for the night."
"I was hoping you would say that, because I'm so pooped from dealing with those Team Shadow guys, those ninjas, and those mutants," Meowth said.
"You don't mind the extra company, do you?" Rydia asked. "I think some rest would do me some good, too."
"You're more than welcome to," Kairi said.
The group all set up camp for the night to rest from an exciting day they all had. They were glad that nothing else had happened.
Or it would seem...
Elsewhere, Golbez is sitting in a helicopter as he made contact with Ein.
"Is everything all set?" Golbez asked.
"Yes. The data of the Technodrome's dimensional teleporter is now in our hands," Ein said.
"Master Mateus must be pleased by the results," Golbez said.
"Indeed. It was thanks to your efforts, keeping Shredder and that alien busy as well as our enemies," Ein said.
"I am returning to base as we speak," Golbez said. "I'll see you when I arrive."
The helicopter flies through the sky, returning to Team Shadow HQ. One must wonder what does Team Shadow plan to do with the data they have acquired. And can Sora and his friends be prepared for what's coming? Just wait and see in the chapters up ahead.
