Chapter 12: Operation Aqua
After arriving at the bottom floor of the second basement, Lana and Mallow stood in front of the door.
"Ready Lana?" Mallow asked as Lana looked at her longtime childhood friend and nodded. "Okay then Tsareena come out and use Stomp on the door!" She said tossing out her Pokéball as her partner came out stomping down hard on the door as it gave way with Mallow and Lana to enter the large room. When they entered they saw a Caucasian man with a blue bandanna with the Team Aqua emblem on it along with matching black jacket, pants and shoes and a neckless which also had the Team Aqua emblem.
"So this is what everyone upstairs were so worried about huh? Two measly little girls." He said with a snicker in his voice. It took Lana a while but she finally figured out who it was.
"Mallow, I know who this is." Lana said with a stern tone in her voice.
"Huh who is it?" Mallow asked looking at her friend.
"The leader of Team Aqua, the man they call Archie." Lana said as the Archie looked at her.
"My, my aren't you the smart one?" Archie said mocking her.
"Of course I knew you, you were a part of a crew my dad was with when he was younger before you left them." Lana said as she clenched her fists.
"Your dad?" Archie said as he then took a closer look at her and then a surprised look on his face. "No way, your hair, your eyes, don't tell me you are his daughter?" Archie asked as Lana nodded. "So I guess both he and the lass we met on a voyage got busy after all." He said with a sadistic grin. "Too bad, in my world he probably had perished when I unleashed Kyogre upon the world!" He said as both Mallow and Lana gasped.
"Unleash Kyogre?" Lana said recalling her previous encounter with the legendary Pokémon.
"But why?" Mallow asked as Archie chuckled.
"Why? Its simple my dear, I wanted to return the world back to how it was." Archie said extending his arms out. "All life had come from the ocean, it is only natural that it returns to the ocean as well, for future generations to grow and thrive." He said as Lana and Mallow looked with a look of disbelief. "And I almost had it too defeating not only that buffoon Maxie but that boy and his Pikachu as well, but then something went wrong. I could feel myself drowning until a strange portal below my feet sucking me in until I came here." He said. "When I arrived I was greeted by the one who brought me here Giovanni who said I can fulfill my goals here, and that is just what I plan on doing." He said.
"I won't let that happen!" Lana said standing her ground. Archie raised an eyebrow before laughing.
"You? You a mere child would try to stop me?" Archie asked. "If you were anything like your father, you too would have a compassion for the ocean and all water type Pokémon!"
"You're right I do." Lana quickly said. "I want to explore the oceans and see all kinds of different water Pokémon with my partners in a large bubble. But I also love the land and sky." She then narrowed her eyes. "And I won't let someone like you take that away just to serve only one group." She said as Mallow looked on in awe with nothing but a smile on her face. But on Archie it was the complete opposite with a frustrating frown.
"Unfortunate." Was all he could say as he pulled out a remote and pressed it soon the floor beneath the two Ultra Guardians began to shift as they ran back to the opposite end of the room as the floor opened to reveal a large pool similar to that of the Cerulean Gym in Kanto. "If you wish to truly stop me, then all you have to do is defeat me in a battle!" He said tossing out his two Pokéballs revealing a Sharpedo and a Crawdaunt appearing from the water.
"Mallow are you ready?" Lana asked as Mallow looked at her friend as she looked back with a confident look on her face as Mallow smiled back.
"As I'll ever be." Mallow said as she looked to her partner. "Okay Tsareena this will be our toughest battle yet!" She said to her long time partner as she nodded.
"Okay then," Lana said tossing her Pokéball towards the water, "Go Primarina!" She said as partner came out of the water ready for battle.
"Alright let's make this quick, Tsareena use Trop Kick on Crawdaunt!" Mallow said as her partner started quick with a grass move headed straight towards the dark water type.
"Grab it!" Archie called out as his Pokémon caught it with its massive right claw surprising both trainer and Pokémon. "Now use Crab Hammer!" He shouted as Crawdaunt's left claw glowed and battered Tsareena away hard as it hit the wall.
"Now Primarina dive deep and use Aqua Jet on Sharpedo!" Lana said as the soloist Pokémon dove down to meet its underwater foe.
"Sharpedo intercept with Night Slash!" Archie called out to the shark Pokémon as it dove down as the two and engaged in head to head combat, Night Slash vs Aqua Jet the two colliding on several hits neither side giving an inch. Even thought minutes past it felt like hours the two still going at it. "Now." Archie said as a twinkle was in the eye of Crawdaunt as Primarina was circling around for another Aqua Jet attack when it was then hit blindsided by the lobster like Pokémon with both of its claws. Lana who could see though the crystal clear water saw this and looked at Archie her eyes full of fury.
"Hey that's not fair!" She said as Archie just chuckled.
"My dear, this is a two on two Pokémon battle so it is fair." He said. "And seeing that your partner's Pokémon seems to be out you are all that is left." Archie then let out a chuckle.
"That's what you think!" Mallow's voice said as Archer looked up to see Tsareena and Mallow standing in front of Lana. "Tsareena is still kicking." She said as the grass type leaped into the water to back up its friend.
"Tsareena use Magical Leaf now!" Mallow said as Tsareena unleashed color full leaves at the two Pokémon that surrounded Lana's ace. Primarina swam up to her friend and acknowledge her as Tsareena nodded back. However there moment was short lived as they saw Sharpedo and Crawdaunt swimming up to them.
"Quick Primarina, to the surface with Tsareena!" Lana called out as her partner nodded and swam up with Tsareena holding on as the two jumped up out of the water. "Now use icy wind!" She said as Primarina unleashed the ice attack as it turned the pool of water into ice along with Sharpedo and Crawdaunt just as they reached the surface edge of the water, Archie gasping in disbelief. "Now we will show you what it means for land and sea to work together!" Lana said as both her and Mallow's Z Crystals began to glow. Both Lana and Mallow looked at each other and nodded as they began striking their respected poses as their Pokémon followed.
"Now smell the sweet sweet aroma of Alola." Mallow said striking the Grass Z pose as the field was now covered in flowers.
"And hear the sweet melody of Primarina!" Lana said as Primarina started to sing as Lana struck the Water Z pose.
"Now Tsareena use Bloom Doom!" Mallow shouted as the grass type unleashed a huge burst of green energy.
"Primarina, use Oceanic Operetta!" Lana said as Primarina's song grew louder as a huge bubble began to appear. The bubble floated over to the two frozen Pokémon still defenseless in their frozen state as the two moves hit simultaneously as Archie looked on with both Pokémon floating in the water knocked out.
To be continued…
Again here is where we leave off and if you are wondering why I end one chapter with one battle and begin with a different battle all that will be revealed soon but for now next time its Dawn and Sophocles vs Cyrus of Team Galactic which also comes out today you don't want to miss it. So for now stay safe, healthy and wash your hands.
