Chapter 9: Operation Aether
The Ultra Guardians were now surrounded by Faba and his band of masked Aether Paradise employees.
"Surrender children, you are no match for my squad of employees." Faba said.
"No way, Faba, we will never give in!" Ash shouted back.
"Faba why, why would you betray my mother like this?" Lillie asked as Faba let out a laugh.
"Why, because your mother never saw the true potential of my research! But thanks to Giovanni, and his Rainbow Rocket he has helped furtured my projects and together we shall rule the world!" He said with a laugh as the rest of Ash and his friends looked on. "And with that being said," Faba said as he extended his arms. "My loyal employees bring out your Pokémon!" He said as the masked employees brought out their own Pokémon which were Muks, Primapes, Machokes and Parasites.
"Now what do we do?" Dawn asked.
"Yeah because all of our Pokémon are exaausted." Agreed Clemont. But as if their questions were answered several of the Aether Pokémon got hit by large attacks. Everyone looked to see the four Island Kahunas; Hala, Oliva, Nanu and Hapu along with their partners, Hariyama, Lycanroc, Krokodile and Mudsdale with them.
"Don't worry kids, we will handle them." Hala said as Ash's eyes beamed in appreciation.
"Ash." Gladion said as Ash looked at Lillie's older brother. "I will stay behind and help the Kahunas deal with Faba."
"And I'll stay behind too." Tracy said as Ash looked at him.
"Tracy are you sure?" Ash asked as the Orange Islands native nodded.
"Yeah don't worry about me, go ahead and save Lusamine." He said as Ash nodded.
"Alright," Ash said as he looked back to the rest of his friends. "Guys we're breaking through!" He shouted.
"RIGHT!" The rest shouted back as Faba grinned.
"You children aren't going ANYWERE!" He shouted as the masked employees commanded their Pokémon to attack only to be deflected by the Kahuna's Pokémon's attacks creating a huge cloud of smoke.
"EVERYONE NOW!" Ash shouted as the rest of his friends ran past Pokémon but not before recalling their own Pokémon first. When the smoke cleared Ash and his friends had made it past Faba and ran straight to the castle as Faba gritted his teeth.
"Hey Faba!" Gladion shouted as Faba looked back at him. "Why don't you focus on your opponents?" As both Gladion and Tracy had determined looks on their faces while Faba laughed.
"You two against me ha! Very well but after this I will go after your sister Gladion!" He said tossing out two Pokéballs as Alakazam and Hypno came out. Gladion and Tracy looked at each other and nodded as they tossed out their Pokéballs.
"Go Silvally!" Gladion shouted.
"Let's go Marill!" Tracy shouted as their two Pokémon came out. Meanwhile Ash and the rest of his friends made it to the doors of the castle as there was a large panel on the doors.
"I've never seen this here before." Lillie said.
"It must be Rainbow Rocket then." Mallow said as she heard Clemont chuckle.
"Just leave this all to me guys." He said. "Clemontic Gear On!" He said as his Aipom arm pulled out a devise from his backpack. "I present to you all the Clemontic Hack O Matic 3000!" He said.
"Hack O Matic?" Sophoclese asked not impressed with the name.
"He sure has ways of naming his inventions." Dawn said with the same enthusiastic voice as Sophoclese.
"Like a little kid." Iris added.
"Wow science is so amazing!" Ash said as the three looked at him in surprise.
"Now with this, I can place it over the panel and…" Clemont said as he placed the devise over the panel as it lit up and a green lighted screen came on as the doors opened. "Ta da! We're in." He said as everyone applauded him even Dawn, Sophoclese and Iris. However there little celebration was stopped when a booming sound came from the direction where they left Tracy and Gladion with the Kahunas.
"We better hurry inside guys." Misty said as they all nodded and ran in as the doors close behind them. Back at the battle site, the Kahunas were doing their best holding off the masked employees, while Gladion and Tracy stared down Faba.
"Alright Sivally!" Gladion said holding up a disk in his hand. "Take this dark memory!" He said tossing it over as a slot opened on the side of Silvally's head as the disk went in as the slot closed and Silvally's eyes along with the crested feathers and tail fin turned black. "Now Silvally has turned into a dark type, meaning it can take on any psychic moves." Gladion said to Tracy.
"Then lets use that to our advantage, Marill use Water Gun!" He said as the water type let out a stream of water.
"Silvally use Multi Attack now!" As a dark energy surrounded Silvally as the two attacks aimed at Faba's two psychic types.
"Pathetic! Alakazam use Shadow Ball on Marill and Hypno use Psychic to reflect the Water Gun at Silvally." He said as the two psychic types used their powers as Shadow Ball hit Marril while the Water Gun attack was deflected towards Silvally who was hit while charging the two. "Now Double Shadow Ball!" He said as both his Pokémon fired a shadow ball hitting both Pokémon knocking them back.
"Marill!" Tracy shouted.
"Are you alright Silvally?" Gladion shouted as the two Pokémon stood strong.
"Your Pokémon are no match for my Pokémon!" Faba said as he let out a laugh.
"Are you sure about that?" Gladion said with a smirk on his face as Faba then looked at him in confusion. "I haven't even tapped into Silvally's true power!" Gladion said pulling out a black crystal from his pocket as Faba looked stunned.
"No!" He shouted. "Hypno, Alakazam stop him!" He said as both Pokémon were prepared to use their psychic attacks on Gladion. Tracy observed this and turned to the mouse water type.
"Quick Marill while their focused, use Hydro Pump!" He said as the blue mouse nodded and fired out two blasts of water knocking back the two psychic types. Gladion looked towards Tracy with a smile.
"Thanks Tracy!" Gladion said as he attached the black crystal to his Z-Ring. "Alright Silvally let's go!" Gladion said getting into a ready pose as a beam of light enveloped him before branching over to Silvally. "Prepared to be enveloped by a wave of darkness, let's go Black Hole Eclipse!" He said as Sivally performed the move summoning a ball of dark energy and aimed it at Faba's Pokémon. The entirety of the dark orb sucked in the two psychic types before blowing up as the two came out falling hard on top of Faba all three knocked out.
"Yeah alright!" Tracy shouted as Gladion walked over and petted his partner.
"Nice work Silvally." Gladion complemented as Silvally barked back. "You take a nice long rest now." The blonde said returning his partner to its Premier Ball.
"You were great too Marill." Tracy said looking at his Pokémon returning it to the Pokéball. Just then a groan came from the piled-up trio as Gladion and Tracy looked over to see Faba beginning to stir. They approached the pile with cautious as they got closer Faba then looked up at them with confusion.
"Master Gladion?" Faba said in a phased state. "What are you doing here?" Immediately Gladion reached down to pull the professor out as he then looked back in shock. "And what happened to my Pokémon!?" He exclaimed as he looked up at the sky in even more shock. "And why is the sky all red!?" He said as then something snapped in his brain. "Wait where's Giovanni?" He asked looking back at the two.
"Giovanni? The leader of Team Rocket?" Tracy asked but before Faba could answer a voice called out from behind them.
"Tracy, Gladion come over here!" The voice belonging to Hala as the two ran over with Faba close behind after recalling his Pokémon. When they arrived they saw the masked Aether Paradise members all unmasked and unconscious along with their Pokémon.
"What happened to them?" Tracy asked.
"It looks like those masks Faba was making them wear controlled their actions they only stopped when I'm assuming you two stopped Faba." Hala said looking up at the professor. "And I guess these two young men did the job of getting you back on our side." The Kahuna said as Faba nodded.
"Yes, but we haven't have much time Giovanni is here and taken full control of Aether Paradise." Faba said.
"We know that Faba, that's why we came here." Gladion said as Faba then had a blank expression on his face.
"Oh." Was all Faba could say.
"But Ash and the others are on their way now to stop him in Lusamine's mansion." Tracy informed them.
"Then we must go and help them." Oliva said as the other Kahuna's nodded.
"Don't even bother." A voice said as everyone looked to see a white haired man wearing a black jacket with a white skull emblem on the back with a red x over it, a white shirt with a gold chain with the same skull emblem, with yellow sunglasses on his for head, baggy black pants and white shoes. "I was sent here by Kukui to help out the kid, seems only right I do after that battle at the Manalo Conference." He said as he walked past them.
"In that case let's go free any other Aether Paradise employees under Rainbow Rocket's control." Tracy said as the others nodded as they left back into the facility, with Faba elected to stay behind to attended to the unconscious.
And that is where we will leave off this chapter. Sorry again it took so long to get this out. But I hope you all stay tuned for the next Rainbow Rocket chapter. Until then, this is Disneyanimefan94 signing out.
