ALOLA TO OUR SAVIOUR: Chapter 27 - Rage.
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon.
EDIT: Added some more to the encounter scene.
The vast green forests of Kalos spread across the region. It was migration season in the region so the sky was full of flying type Pokemon ranging from the Fletchling line, the Pidgey line, Mothim and Masquerain as well along with lots of other flying type Pokemon.
The sun was out which was surprising considering it was winter and usually the place is covered in snow by now, so the Pokemon that lived in the forest were using their time wisely to collect food and water before the weather gets too bad.
A small group of young Pokemon were playing not too far from where they lived. The group consisted of a Azurill, a Scatterbug, a Pansear, a Pansage and a Littleo. They were kicking around a grass ball that Pansage's mother had made for them.
Azurill's mother, Azumarill was watching the group to make sure nothing bad happened.
The group was having a blast until Pansear kicked it too hard over top of Scatterbug.
"Pana!" Pansage moaned at Pansear, who scratched his head sheepishly. They all laughed as Pansear walked over to retrieve the ball.
But he stopped as he heard a car approach them. Azumarill gave a worried look as two men with a large Machamp and Bisharp appeared out of the van.
Machamp kicked the ball which went flying and shattered on contact with a tree.
"Hey their little fellows." The man said with a net over his shoulder as the little Pokemon started to back away.
"Marillz! Azum!" Azumarill yelled at the group to get back.
One of the humans nodded at Bisharp how raced towards Azumarill and slash her across the face with a metal claw, knocking the water fairy type out.
The children cried with tears, hugging each other in fear.
"Grab them and net them. I want to get going, its cold out here." One of the humans said to the two Pokemon.
Machamp walked forward and reached out to the group who were frozen in fear.
Suddenly, out from with the trees somewhere, a water like projectile hit Machamp in the wrist, damaging it a lot.
Everyone looked around.
"Who's there!?" one of the humans called out.
Standing on top of the tallest tree was a blue humanoid Pokemon with frog features and a tongue for a scarf. He was had his eyes closed and arms folded. Upon opening his eyes, he leaped downwards and landed in front of the children. They all shifted from a state of fear to the looks of joy as they all went over to Azumarill, who was now conscious again.
"A Greninja?"
The Greninja glared it them without making movement as the Pokemon of the forest cheered him on.
"Grr. Fine! If it's going to be a pest and stay in the way, we'll just take it too. Machamp cross chop!"
Before Machamp could power up his move, in one swift movement, Greninja dashed towards the pure fighting type from Kanto. He clutched his hand into a ball and it began to glow white. Greninja used aerial ace on Machamp, with him slamming the first hit right under the four armed creatures jaw. The hit was so hard you could hear the bones in his jaw shatter.
Machamp cried in pain as Greninja used aerial ace again but this time in his stomach, sending him flying into the van.
"Shit! Bisharp metal claw!"
Bisharp charged at Greninja with his battle axe hands glowing silver. Greninja formed two little blades using his mastered technique of cut and collided with Bisharp. Greninja pressed harder and harder as Bisharp started to shake. Seeing an opportunity, Greninja slammed his head into Bisharp's forcing him to lose composer. Greninja used this chance to slash Bisharp's chest with the Pokemon on the ground out cold.
"Ahh!" the humans cried as one of them returned Bisharp. They looked up and saw the powerful Greninja walk towards them.
"RUN!" one of the humans shouted as they both ran for it.
"Geck" Greninja muttered to himself.
The young Pokemon he had protected celebrated as all their parents arrived after hearing word of the attack.
They all thanked the Kalos starter. The parents didn't know much about him other than he was on their side. Rumour that spread around the forest was that he was personally chosen by the legendary Pokemon and protector of the region, Zygarde to assist him in protecting Kalos.
Greninja slipped off when he got the chance and was now jumping through the trees to continue monitoring the forest.
In the corner of his eye, he saw a violet beam fire at him.
Despite not being in his special form, he formed a water shuriken and used it as a shield before flinging it downwards at his attacker which he knew all too well.
He heard a canine yelp as he fell to the ground.
Greninja just scolded over a black and green dog like Pokemon that was covered in hexagons.
"Can't surprise you, now can I? Not even a sneak attack?" the Pokemon joked as he got up.
"Not even once Z2." Greninja responded as he walked with the Pokemon.
The dog was the 10 percent form of the order Pokemon, Zygarde.
"Poachers again huh?" Zygarde asked.
Greninja nodded as they went into a hole in the side of a mountain. Going deep within was a large den with straw beds and a whole supply of food. Squishy in his 10 percent form was eating on a large oran berry.
Greninja fell on to the bed to get some sleep.
"Welcome back!" Squishy greeted as Z2 snatched his oran berry and ate in one gulp. "HEY!"
The two Zygardes began fighting due to the little berry snatch while Greninja rolled on to his side. It had been roughly 3 months since he was released by his best friend and trainer, Ash, to protect Kalos.
He rolled on to his side and saw the group photo of him, Ash and the rest of his Pokemon, Serena and her Pokemon along with Clemont and Bonnie plus their Pokemon.
He sighed loudly as the two Zygardes stopped their bickering and heard the sigh.
"You ok big fella?" Z2 asked.
Greninja looked over and nodded.
"We can sense you are feeling sorrow? Do you miss Ash and co?" Squishy asked.
"Of course, he misses Ash and the rest of his Pokemon dumbass!" Z2 snapped.
Squishy then came up with an idea.
"Hey! In the morning, we should go and visit Goodra and see how he is doing? How about that?" Squishy asked.
Greninja sat up and nodded.
"I would like that, yes…" Greninja said.
"Righto! To the wet lands in the morning it is!" Z2 announced as he and Squishy glowed green and released the 10 percent cells they had so they were now in just the core form.
Night passed on by and at the crack of dawn, the trio made their way to the wetlands which was normally a 5 hours' drive but at the speed of Greninja and Zygarde when it their 10 percent form's, they were going to make it in no time.
They arrived at the hill that towered over the wetland, panting and sweating from the run they did.
The two dragon ground types split down to the core form as Greninja pick them both up and on to tongue scarf as he walked down to see if he could find Goodra.
The dragon Pokemon was sitting by a pond, watching the Wooper swim in it with the wetlands warden, Keanan watching from his house as he read a newspaper.
Greninja spotted his former teammate and approached him.
"Gecko!" Greninja called out as Goodra turned in confusion as did everyone else. Goodra gained a huge grin on his face as he raced over to give Greninja a friendly hug, accidently crushing the Zygarde cores.
"Can't… Breathe!" Z2 moaned as Goodra let go.
Keanan walked over along did some of the Pokemon of the wetland, remembering Greninja who helped in the battle against Florges.
"Seems like you're a popular figure around here…" Z2 commented.
Keanan approached Greninja.
"Oh? You were once Ash's Pokemon weren't you?" Keanan asked with Greninja nodding.
Goodra suddenly formed tears in his eyes and began crying out loud.
Greninja looked at Goodra in confusion.
The Pokemon of the wetlands condoled there friend as Greninja began to show signs of concern.
Keanan saw the confused look and it clicked into place.
"Oh… You don't know…" Keanan said sadly.
"Know what?" Squishy asked.
Keanan was stunned at the small green blob having the capabilities to talk, but realised it was the Zygarde cell that was shown on TV during the battle for Lumiose city.
"Follow me…" Keanan said with sad look.
The human took Greninja, the two Zygarde's and Goodra inside as he looked for a newspaper. He found it and handed it over to Greninja. Thanks to battle bond, he learnt how to read like human.
Greninja's heart shattered into thousand pieces as he felt like fainting just be reading the title.
Kalos hero killed in a serious attack on kanto's pallet town
Ash Ketchum was on his way home to be greeted by friends and family to celebrate his success in the Kalos league and his assistance in the battle for Lumiose city. Shortly after arriving the town was attacked and the bulk for destroyed in a massive flame. The Kalos hero was taken away by the strange attacker and has been announced dead after clothing burnt and torn was found.
Greninja fell to the ground in tears as the Zygarde cores looked at him confused.
"I lost my best friend, the one that taught me to believe in myself! To have more confidence…" said the traveling partner and gym leader of Lumiose city, Clemont.
"Ash, I'm sorry! I couldn't help you! I'm sorry… I'M SORRY!" childhood friend Serena told our reporters before breaking down into tears.
More information will be given when the time is right.
"GECK!" Greninja roared.
"What you are crying about?" Z2 said with a confused look.
Greninja turned to him in anger.
Squishy hopped over to the paper and read it.
"Huh. Greninja, stop crying and please listen…" Squishy said with anger.
"Geck?" Greninja muttered.
"Ash isn't dead."
Keanan, Greninja and Goodra all looked stunned at the accusation.
"How can you be so sure?" Keanan questioned.
"If Ash was dead, Greninja wouldn't be able to access the battle bond form of Ash-Greninja. With Ash being deceased, the bond would be broken, resulting in Greninja failing to transform." Z2 explained.
"Then that means… He is still alive?" Keanan asked as Goodra was now crying tears of joy. Z2 nodded.
Greninja got up and clenched his fists.
During his travels with Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie, he was filled with emotions of joy and happiness.
During the last minute and a half, he was filled with nothing but sadness.
And now, he was experiencing a new type of emotion.
Rage. Pure and utter rage.
"You might want to check this as well." Keanan said as the rage inside Greninja fuelled even more with Squishy and Z2 noticing this.
"Meet the future queen of Kalos! Prince Marco engaged to one of the heroes that saved Lumiose city!"
A picture of Serena and the prince of Kalos, who was kissing the diamond ring on Serena's finger.
Greninja crushed the paper, wanting to tear everything apart around him.
"Greninja." Squishy said as the ninja Pokemon looked down. "Why don't we pay our little friend, Serena a visit?"
"Gec!" Greninja shouted as the two Zygarde cores transformed into their ten percent forms and dashed off, leaving Keanan and Goodra.
"I just hope they don't do anything stupid…" Keanan muttered.
(Later that night…)
Serena was in her bed with in the royal palace. Her Pokemon had their own beds as well as she waited for her prince to show up. Despite being only 15, she was engaged to the future King of Kalos and soon she would be the future Queen.
Marco was a dreamboat as well. Smart, funny, sporty, handsome. Every girls dream.
He walked into the room to find his future wife.
"Ah! Serena." Marco said to his princess.
"What's up your highness?" Serena said with a smirk.
"You know I don't like being called that…" Marco moaned.
"Hehe, sorry couldn't help it. Serious though, what's up?" she asked again.
"There is some business I have to attend to and looks like I'll be pulling an all nighter." Marco told the girl who gave a sad look.
"Aww, but you did this last week as well." Serena complained.
"Well, you have me available 6 other nights of the week!" Marco laughed.
"True. Just don't push yourself. Night then." Serena told him as he walked over to give her a passionate kiss.
"I love you." Marco whispered in her ear.
"I love you too." Serena purred back as she gave him another kiss before he left.
Watching through the window, using the darkness as an element of surprise was none other than Greninja and the two Zygarde cores.
"Oh Serena…" Squishy moaned sadly.
Greninja kept his look of rage while Z2 rolled his eyes.
"Okay, here is the plan." Z2 told the duo.
Serena and her Pokemon all went to sleep in their retrospective beds.
They trio outside waited half an hour before making their move. Greninja turned into Ash-Greninja as they were now ready to go through with their plan. Greninja silently jumped from the building they were on to the other without making a sound. Using cut, he managed to cut apart the lock on the window as silently as possible. Thankfully nobody woke up in the room.
Slipping inside, Greninja placed the two cores on the bed as he jumped up into the darkest corner of the room.
"Ok. Let's do this!" Z2 told Squishy.
The duo stood on top of Serena's legs and began to jump up and down, in attempt to wake the girl up, however, due to being so light, it was not working.
But however, thanks to the ruffling on the sheets, it woke up Sylveon.
"Syv?" Sylveon yawned but stopped as she saw the two Zygarde cores. Greninja kept quiet and still, watching from the shadows.
"Sylveon!" Squishy said. "We need Serena's help! Can you wake her up for us!"
Sylveon gasped as this wasn't a dream. She first woke up Pancham and then Braixen. The other two were just as shocked to see the legendary Pokemon.
All three of them shook their trainer as she slowly woke up.
"Urgh… Guys (yawn) what's up…" Serena started as she then realised what were on her legs. "Wait? Squishy? Z2?"
"Serena! It's so good to see you again!" Squishy cheered.
Here Pokemon stood to the side.
"It's good to see you too Squishy! Bonnie sure has missed you!" Serena told the green Pokemon.
"Serena! We need yours and the chosen one's help!" Z2 asked.
Serena gave a sad look.
"…You mean… Ash?" Serena muttered.
Greninja clutched his fist in anger as her saying Ash's name.
"Yes! Only you and Ash can help and defeat this evil we are facing!" Squishy told her.
"Guys… Ash is dead…" Serena broke the news to them.
"What?" Squishy blurted out as a tear formed.
Squishy cried as Z2 shook his head.
"No! No! NO! We can't beat him now!" Z2 shouted as he began to cry as well.
Serena gave a guilty look which was all Z2 needed to go to faze 2.
"(Sniff), No… (sniff)…. NO! We lost! (Sniff)… Serena… Serena…" Z2 cried.
"What?" Serena said softly to the small green Pokemon.
"(Sniff)… Stop lying." Z2 said in a sudden mood swing.
"What?"
"NOW!" Squishy yelled.
From out of the corner of darkness, Greninja fell and landed behind Braixen. He grabbed a tuff of fur that was on the back of her head as he created a mini blade and pressed it against her neck as Braixen panicked. Pancham and Sylveon began to charge up a move.
"AH! One sudden move or sound and your Pokemon will become the first ever Braixen swiss kabab." Z2 said in an aggressive tone. "Greninja look different to you Serena?"
Serena panicked and did what they wanted. She gave a long hard look at Greninja to realise what they were talking about.
"Ash-Greninja?" she muttered.
"Yes Serena. Greninja can only transform to the battle bond form if the bond is active, meaning Ash is alive… Going to ask once more, where is Ash?" Z2 explained as Serena gasped in shock.
"Squishy! Tell them to stop!" Serena pleaded.
"I'm sorry Serena, I will not betray the one that saved us all." Squishy told her with a hurt look.
Serena began to cry in fear.
"Please stop!" Serena cried as she reached forward. She had the sudden thought of calling for help.
Due to this, Greninja now pressed the blade against Braixen neck as she whimpered in fear and cried. She may not have done anything to Ash, but anyone or thing that may have had some connection to his disappearance was now an enemy to him.
"Don't move and don't talk unless told. If you don't follow these instructions, we will let big, blue and scary here tear the whole place apart and you should know was he was capable of before he trained with us. Now, Tell. Us. Every. Thing. You. Know. Simple as that!" Z2 told her.
Serena continued to panic as her eyes scanned the room for some form of help. She saw a fire alarm she could hit which would send the place in a frenzy.
She made a jump for it, nearly getting their, only for Greninja to let go of Braixen for a split second and formed a weak water shuriken. He flung it at a wooden nightstand, destroying it with ease. Serena looked at the destruction and froze at what had just happened.
Greninja regrabbed Braixen, held her snout togethor and proceeded to stab her in the side. She yelped in pain through the grip as Serena throw up in horror.
"You are pathetic..." Z2 hissed.
Serena looked up.
"Your starter has just been critically injured and what do you do? NOTHING! The boy that you and many others just threw under the carpet as if he was nothing would never let his Pokemon get hurt like that! AND IF THEY DID! He would fight for them!" Z2 roared as Serena cried even more. "You are nothing! Do you even care about the human you are with!?"
"I-I-I d-do! I DO!" Serena mumbled.
"Or are you just going to throw him away just like Ash! Oh wait! Ash isn't the future king of a region now is he?"
Serena looked down on her hands.
"It's only going to get worse... Please Serena... Just tell us what we want..." Squishy said softly.
"FINE! Just let Braixen go!" Serena whimpered.
Squishy nodded at Greninja, who let the fox go but he personally escorted her to her trainer by throwing the fox at Serena. She cried in pain as Braixen landed on her. She gave a long cold look at Greninja who had a look that she had never seen before in him.
A broke, rage fueled look...
The look of losing someone so dear to him...
Ash...
"Ash's mum and Professor Oak told us they want Ash to try something new! To have a change! But he wanted to keep going and failing!" Serena rambled as she held she held Braixen side to prevent the blood lose.
"We don't know that he would fail again!" Squishy hissed at the honey blonde girl. Every word was making Greninja angrier and angrier.
But it didn't feel like the full truth...
"Suddenly, a monster appeared began to wreck the town. We found Ash's charred hat and had to act quickly on it so we claimed the monster took Ash!" Serena told them.
"What about his Pokemon? Where are they?" Squishy asked. "Th-they didn't betray him too now did they?"
Serena gulped loudly as the three intruders got the picture.
"M-Mrs Ketchum and P-Professor Oak convinced all of his Pokemon to give up on him as none of them were really progressing with staying in at the ranch, being just left there while he runs off to a new region. Everyone there decided between themselves who got who and it went from there."
Greninja closed his fist, he was losing it.
"Who did you take?" Squishy asked.
"No one. None of them appealed to me for the showcases." Serena confessed.
Squishy closed his eye.
"True beauty comes from inside the being Serena. You are ugly in the inside." Squishy said bluntly.
"What about Pikachu and his Kalos team? Pikachu is his best friend and his Kalos team are just recent, they wouldn't turn on them would they?" Z2 hissed.
Serena looked at Greninja in fear, hesitant to say the next part, that she was there for it when they talked to his Kalos team, she even spoke to them about it, she know's the Kalos Team's fate. She remembered the hatred in there eyes when they found out what she was doing.
"Pikachu did betray Ash, we had no involvement, he betrayed Ash of his own free will, none of us know why..." Serena pondered.
Greninja slammed his fist into Pancham, imagining he was that ungrateful little rat!The poor Kalos pokemon went flying into a wardrobe.
Next time he sees him, electric type or not, Greninja was going murder that pest!
Greninja grunted loudly as he destroyed a clothes drawer with aerial ace in anger
Serena and her Pokemon huddled together in fear of Ash's Pokemon rampage.
"Where are his Kalos Pokemon Serena?"
Serena tears flowed down her face in fear of her next choice of words
"Stolen, Professor Oak stole his Kalos Pokemon from right under his nose, I don't know who did it or how they managed to steal them but the Kalos Pokemon weren't going to turn on Ash. Last I've heard, they been confined to their Pokeballs without food or exercise until they give up on Ash! That's all I know I SWEAR!"
His best friend betrayed/tortured, first Ash now his fellow team mates?
That was the thing that finally broke Greninja.
He dashed forward, smacking the two cores out of the way and grabbed the girl out of the bed and slammed her against the wall. She gave off a loud scream. He pressed his hand against her neck hard as she began to struggle to find air. He pressed harder and harder as Serena struggled to break free but failing badly, just being able to give pitiful slaps to the frog's long arms. Greninja twisted one of her wrists, creating a loud and disgusting click with Serena screaming with the last of her air in pain.
"GRENINJA! That is enough! We got what we wanted, the truth! Let's go!" Z2 yelled as they heard footsteps running up the hallway. "Tell anyone and we will find you and next time, I will allow him to keep going!"
Greninja grunted and turned around, throwing Serena into a mounted wall mirror with the mirror smashing on impact. Her Pokemon surrounded her to see if she was alright as she gasped and croaked for air. Once filled with oxygen yet again, she began to whale in tears and cry loudly
Greninja rolled his eyes.
"Slut." Was all that Z2 said to Serena.
"Goodbye Serena." Squishy told the girl as the door to the room started to open.
The two Zygarde cores jumped up to Greninja was they slipped through the window, jumping from building to building.
Marco ran in to find his fiancé on the ground crying. Her neck was heavily bruised and the mirror on the wall was in pieces. He ran over and gave her a huge hug as guard ran to the window to find who did this.
"I've got you, I've got you… Shhhh." Marco whispered as Serena cried into his neck. "Who did this?"
Serena looked at him and though back to the threat the Zygarde core gave in fear of what Greninja could do.
"I don't know…" she cried as she continued to hug him tightly.
"We will find him." Squishy said at loud.
Greninja had his eyes closed while he was jumping from each building until he opened his eye to a rage induced look.
"ASSSSSSSSSHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECKOOOO!" Greninja yelled into the night sky, scaring off a few birds.
(Alola region)
Ash had managed to get to sleep after the whole Lillie incident only to be woken up the sound of someone calling his name.
He saw Hau was asleep.
Ash came to the conclusion that is was just his mind and lack of sleep playing tricks on his mind.
Author's Note: SURPRISE! Greninja is here! Who would have thought? Hahaha.
He and the Zygarde cells are now on a quest to find Ash and potentially do damage along the way.
SO I debated between the attack on Serena with this one and a more mild one but thought, after all the bullshit they did, fuck it.
Besides, I have had multiple requests for Serena to have the worse done...
Greninja isn't finished there. So Expect to see them again soonish.
So next Chapter will have a rather big event as well so stay looking forward to that!
As always, Review, Suggest or PM me! Spectre out!
