I gotta say, you guys have the best timing. We're all sparring in the dojo. I'm going with Cobalt. "You don't really think the Kraang are gonna awaken Yveltal, do you?" I ask him, avoiding a series of punches and spin kicks. "I sure hope not. He can suck the life energy out of others. Pokémon, people, even other animals."

I flinch at the thought. The entire world could turn into a disaster area if that happens! "And even though it's a legendary Pokémon, it can cause irreparable damage to everyone and everything around it."

There's some kind of ultimate weapon the Kraang need to awaken Yveltal. Or so the legend goes. I seriously doubt the Kraang are gonna be able to find it, let alone know how to use it. I'm aware that just because Yveltal is a legendary Pokémon, it doesn't mean much of anything. Legendary Pokémon can still be dangerous.

"I just hope that Yveltal is asleep in his cocoon form." Cobalt said. "He probably is. He hasn't woken up in years." True. As far as I know, some, if not most, Dark types are nocturnal. I could be wrong. I heard when Yveltal dies, it drains the life out of everything around it. I'd say, here's to a long and healthy life.

I seriously doubt the Kraang knows what this ultimate weapon is, let alone knows how to even use it. Heck, even I don't know how to use it! But as far as I know, if either not used properly or misused, it could very well mean the end of us all. Kinda like the Cold War. I know, history joke.

I'm not paying full attention when Cobalt delivers a High Jump Kick right in the crotch. I hold my private area in pain. Then a foot comes in contact with my head, knocking me onto my side. He's quicker than I thought. My crotch still hurts. I groan. "Man down! Tiger down!" I meow in pain.

"Are you okay?" Raphael asks, getting up. I watched when Splinter licked his face. "I just got kicked in the nuts. How do you think I'm doing?" I ask him. "Sorry." He said as he helps me back up on my feet. I think the venom is starting to get to me. I know I said it takes more than a snake bite to stop me, but it's affecting my thinking.

I've been having small attitudes recently. I think the venom is the cause of that, too. Stupid neurotoxin. Zeke's gonna pay for biting me. One way or another. I just hope the venom doesn't cause me to lose control over myself. And here I thought I was immune to Arbok bites. Guess I was wrong.

We're all doing our own thing. I'm trying to keep this nuisance of a neurotoxin under control. I consulted to Splinter the other day. He used some kind of healing mantra on me, but I'm not sure if it'll work or not. Arbok poison is pretty strong. Just because I have godlike powers, it doesn't mean I'm immune to everything.

Kijani, being a Pokémon, somewhat knew what to do. But he also said he's never actually encountered an Arbok. Him being a Dragon and Fighting type, and an Arbok being a Poison type, he wouldn't compete in battles he couldn't win. Or he wouldn't battle weak Pokémon. No surprise there, I probably would've done the same thing. Don't pick on small, innocent Pokémon, kids. But don't underestimate them, either. Small doesn't mean weak. I learned that the hard way.

Zeke's venom is starting to cause headaches, too. Not as bad as the migraine I had when I was being mind controlled by Shah and Akari. And another thing, I haven't seen Pātonā since we last fought Karai. You know, where I incinerated that octopus thing? I felt kinda bad for doing that, but it had to be done, for the sake of my family, yeah.

Pātonā doesn't hold grudges against anyone. But he was ticked off with Leonardo then. And he hasn't came back since. I'm starting to miss him. I hope he's okay...

"Marcel!" Someone calls my name from Donatello's lab. I stand up. Oh, Jeez Louise, I need to lose some pounds. I've been really moody the past two weeks. First I'm all happy go lucky, then I'm fussy, then I'm straight up lazy, and then I'm having a mental breakdown. Weird, isn't it? Well, I'm already weird! And I say "Deal with it!"

I finally made it to Donatello's lab. "Remember when you said you wanted to lose weight?" Donatello asks me. "Yes?" I answer him. "Well, I think I have the answer to your problem." Well, what'd you know! Once again, Donatello has figured out a solution to my problem. "Great! What is it?"

Donatello created this turtle submarine, but it's no normal submarine. Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and I are playing a vital part, and it beneficial for me. The turtle submarine is powered by kinetic energy, channeled by bicycles. For me, it's channeled by a treadmill. I love treadmills! Better than an elliptical. "Don't mind me, I'm having the time of my life back here." I said, satisfied with my progress.

I can feel myself getting lighter every minute. I've been at this for quite a while. The eye venom causes me to flinch every now and then. Sadly, the engines were turned on, and I had to stop. "I wish I knew how many pounds I lost." I said, a little upset that I had to stop. "I'm glad you're enjoying this." Raphael said, out of breath. "It's worth the exercise. Admit it."

"Oh, the poor thing." Leonardo said, looking through a parascope. "Let me have a look see." I said as Leonardo moves over. Oh, I see what he's looking at. It looks a lot like a Lapras, but instead of it being blue with a gray shell and a tan underbelly, it looked kinda like me; yellow with black stripes, a white underbelly, and a green shell. Odd.

"He kinda looks like you." Leonardo said. "That's what I was thinking! Must've been from Dimension X or something. The poor thing is right." I respond. We went into stealth mode into the facility. The mutated Lapras saw us coming. That thing is giving me the creeps already. A shiny Lapras is purple. This thing right here... Isn't anywhere close to a shiny.

"Okay, now what?" I ask. "They need a telekinetic photon energy to activate." Donatello explains. "Telekinesis? Psionic energy? I'm your man." I said, smiling. "Okay, you see the panel in the shape of a paw print? Place your paw over it and start releasing the energy." I've done something similar to this before. But I didn't have scars with occasionally-afflicting venom back then.

I place my paw on the panel as I manifest the light energy. I can feel my fur flow a bit. Only so I can hear it, I start to chant something in Swahili. This happens every time, my black stripes give off a very faint glow of ultraviolet light. And a sky blue colored aura surrounds me. I flinch, the venom getting to me again. The aura dies off, and I had to start over again. Whenever I do something like this, it's like I've never felt so... Spiritual in my life.

I put my paw off of the panel, and I notice that the mutated Lapras is gone. "Good work, bud," Leonardo said, rubbing my head.

While we were sneaking around, I overhear two Kraang droids having a conversation. I might learn more about their plan with Yveltal. "How do you suspect that Kraang will unleash the Pokémon of Destruction that is also known as Yveltal?" One droid asks the other.

"Kraang are close to unleashing the Pokémon of Destruction. All Kraang needs now is the stone of the moon. Once Kraang obtains the stone of the moon, Kraang will have the ability to unleash the Pokémon of Destruction into the city of New York."

Okay, I know that much. According to mythology, an ultimate weapon can be used with Yveltal's power. Is it true? I really don't know. I remember, eons ago, a mere ten year old kid defeated this Lysandre guy and disabled this ultimate weapon. The same kid even caught Yveltal himself. Can you tell me something that's actually helpful?

"But how will Kraang wipe out all of humanity with this Pokémon of Destruction?" The first droid asks the second one. "Kraang will have the one known as Yveltal to use the move of signature that of which is also known as the wing of oblivion. The wing of oblivion has the potential to drain the energy of life out of all living things."

Of course! Yveltal's signature move is Oblivion Wing. It's a special Flying type move that drains the target's HP. It's ideal for a plan like this. So they'll have Yveltal use Oblivion Wing on everyone and everything on the city until only the Kraang are left. On that note, they are trying to turn the city into a place they can live on and we can't, as Michelangelo stated before.

This is actually a pretty good plan. The only Pokémon I know that can stop Yveltal is the Life Pokémon, Xerneas. It's a Fairy type that looks a lot like a deer. Dark is weak to Fairy. But it's been years since I last saw it. She's probably sleeping now, disguised as a tree. Man, I love Kalos Pokémon. My favorite generation of Pokémon. They're so cool.

This snake like Dragon and Ground type Pokémon named Zygarde is pretty much responsible for the structure of our planet as we know it. It could probably overwhelm Xerneas and Yveltal both. He is called the Order Pokémon, so that's that.

Okay, back to the present. Hearing enough, I sneak into the main control room without anyone suspecting a thing. But that mutated Lapras came back. Darn thing. The horn on its head is longer than a normal Lapras.

The ringtone from Donatello's phone causes me to jump. I was so focused on the Kraang droids down below, I was, like, focused intently, and boy, did I jump. "Oh, that's embarrassing." Michelangelo said. The Kraang droids heard the ringtone and start firing at us.

I tackle one to the ground, destroying it. I blast fireballs from my mouth at any droids remaining. I'm like a machine gun of fire! Most of the Kraang droids are burned to the ground by now. Michelangelo prepares to do a victory dance until Raphael stops him.

"How many times have I told you? No celebrating until the fight is over!" He pokes Michelangelo's forehead. "How many times have I told you, I assumed it was over?" Michelangelo pokes Raphael's chest, resulting in getting his finger bent back.

Oh my dog, not again. I push the two away from each other, my lips drawn back in a snarl. "Thank you. Now, about that power supply. I think I can use my psychic abilities to short it out. It'll overheat, and this place goes boom boom."

Donatello folds his arms, trying not to laugh. "How are you so silly, yet so clever?" I shrug. "I was born silly. I was born intelligent. I just don't show it much."

"Alright! Victory dance!" Michelangelo cheers. "Not now." I said plainly. "Or maybe later." This might take a minute. Using Future Sight is a two-turn move, like Solar Beam. And it drains some of my energy.

A deep pink aura is surrounding the chemical tank and the blaster near it. A huge hunk of psychic energy hits them both, and the power shorts out. I use telekinesis and insert the blaster into the chemical tank. "Okay, we got ninety seconds, let's go!"

The mutated Lapras pops us from the diving area. And he doesn't not look happy. It growls at us. "Um... Hi." I said to it, hoping I didn't wet myself. I don't think I did, even when the mutated Lapras roars at us showing his canine teeth. Since when do Lapras have teeth?!

He tries to eat me, but fails miserably, slamming his nose on the floor. Raphael is the last one to attack. He tries to jump to the platform, but the mutated Lapras grabs him by the tails of his mask and throws him in the air, ready to eat him. Oh, no you don't!

I jump off the wall and catch Raphael before he landed in the Lapras' mouth. "No one eats my best friend without getting through me!" I tell the mutated Lapras, who just hisses. "Can't you calm that thing down?" Raphael asks me. "Yeah, I could, but I wouldn't make it before the place explodes."

"Oh."

Michelangelo rides the Lapras' head. He closes the hatch door, catching the Lapras' head in the process. "Good job, kid!" I said to Michelangelo, patting his shell. "That was fun!" He said, ready for a victory dance. "Make it quick!" I said to him. He does a small dance and joins our escape.

As I'm running to the submarine, I bump into a black and white something, the two of us in a pile. I see the head of a Lycanroc underneath me. "Pātonā?" I ask it, standing up. He looks up at me, and his face changes as he pounces on me. "You came! You actually came!" He said happily. Yep, it's Pātonā.

"I'm happy to see you, too. Save it, we gotta go." I said before picking him up with my mouth and carrying him into the sub. I set him down on the floor, panting like a dog. We managed to escape before that chemical tank exploded.

Pātonā turns to me again and actually pounces me, making happy dog noises. I'm laughing my heart out as he sends me onto my back several times. He's, like, crying! "Relax!" I laugh as I finally get him to calm down. He hugs me around the neck. I return his hug. "I missed you too, buddy."

"Are you kidding me?!" Donatello said, looking at something. I turn my head to see the mutated Lapras swimming towards us, charging horn first. "Oh, come on!"

I rush to my treadmill and run like my life depended on it. I love treadmills so much. I really think I'm losing weight. But I'm a little too focused on the fact that we're being chased by a Lapras with teeth! Why does this Lapras have teeth?!

The Lapras grabs the sub from the top. Aw, snap, we're done for. "That's it. It got us. We're gonna die!" Donatello shouts in a panic. What happens next, is something beyond what I expected.

We hear whale noises. What in the world is that Lapras doing? Wait... It's on top of the ship, so... Oh. My. Dog. Is that Lapras humping the sub?! I bury my face in my paws as I start to go hysterical. This is the weirdest day of my life, hands down.

"Get me out of here." I said to myself as I make it outside. I shroud myself in electricity. I'm about to use Thunderbolt. And since I'm in water, this'll be stronger than it should. I just have to be careful not to electrocute the sub.

The bolt hits the mutated Lapras, but not the sub. It growls at me. I growl back and roar, which sounds more like a gurgle. I can survive underwater, but I might go unconscious if I'm underwater for too long.

The horn glows, using Smart Strike. I make a large ball of electricity and get ready to chuck it at the mutated Lapras. I aim the Zap Cannon and throw it. Zap Cannon is a really powerful Electric type move that paralyzes the opponent, unless the opponent's ability is Limber. But it only has 50 accuracy.

The Lapras faints, and I make it back to the sub to escape.

We all made it back to the lair in one piece. I'm talking to Pātonā right now. "How did you get all the way over there?" I ask him.

"Zeke knocked me unconscious and dragged me there somehow."

"You know Zeke?"

"I do. He nearly bit me in the face one time, gave me scars like the ones you have on your eyes."

"You do NOT want Zeke to bite you. His venom can give you headaches, mood swings, it can make it harder to think, all the bad stuff."

"I believe you. But Poison isn't very effective on Rock, so I should be fine."

"But you can still get poisoned unless you're half Steel type."

"I have multiple ways of eluding Pokémon of any kind. But I felt miserable when I was over there. I was on my way here because I didn't come back since the turtles fought that octopus thing with Karai." Pātonā said the name like it was a curse word.

"So wait, you're not still mad at Leonardo?" I ask him. "No, I wasn't. I'm like you, I don't hold grudges. But the main reason why I was coming was because,"

Pātonā walks over to me on all fours and rests his head on my chest for a second before putting his arms around me. "I missed you." He finishes his sentence. I return his hug. "I missed you too."

I saw Pātonā for the first time in weeks, I'm getting better at controlling the venom in my eyes, and now we know more about the Kraang unleashing Yveltal. And now I have more than one reason to beat Zeke to a quivering pulp.

But let's just hope I won't have to.

I tried to make the most out of this, tried not to make it so short. Zeke's being a real pain in the grass right now, I know. He already poisoned Marcel and kidnapped Pātonā! Is there anything he won't do? And Zeke's gonna be an even bigger pain in the next chapter.
