ALOLA TO OUR SAVIOUR: Chapter 43 - Crimson invasion
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon :/
Ice cold water was splashed on to the face of the unconscious Jack North. He gasped for air as he was in a slight slate of shock.
"Oh god… (Cough) Wh-where am I?" He gasped. "Duncan? Jargai!" Jack yelled.
He noticed he was handcuffed and there was two guards and a man opposite of him.
"They are safe." The man said. "We just need some information."
Jack glared at him.
"Welcome to the Aether foundation! We believe you have some first-hand experience with the Ultra Beast known as UB-06: Growth?" The man explained.
"How do you about that thing…" Jack muttered with hatred.
"We study them. Learn how they think, act, fight." The man told him.
"How many are there?" Jack stuttered out.
"We do not know. 100's maybe? 1000's." the man estimated as Jack focused. "What was it like?"
"Terrifying." Jack spat as the man wrote down what he said.
"You know? Growth has a typing. Grass ground." The man explained.
"They are Pokemon?" Jack stuttered.
"Sort of…" The man explained till they heard a loud explosion outside.
The door flung open as Bewear ran into the room, used hammer arm on the two guards with the scientist that was interrogating Jack going on to the ground on his knees.
Jack looked over to see a group of kids along with Duncan and Jargai.
"Jack!" Duncan yelled as Jack stood up.
"What the hell is going on?!" Jack yelled in confusion.
"They found us on accident and here we are now!" Jargai explained as Bewear ripped off the handcuffs.
He saw Ash and recognised his face.
"Wait a minute… You are that dead kid!" Jack shouted.
"And you're that dead soldiers." Ash responded. "Look we can do this another time! Follow us!"
The soldiers didn't know what was happening but just followed the group.
"Mind explaining?" Jack asked.
"Your name is Jack, right? Ash." Ash told him as Bewear and Silvally ran forward to attack the fleeing aether grunts. "Long story short, both of us have encountered Ultra Beast's before."
"Ultra what?" Duncan stuttered.
"The thing that nearly killed you! Multiple times! Aether is trying to bring more into the world and we don't have much time!" Ash confessed.
"Lillie, do you know if Lusamine said where she went?" Gladion asked his sister.
She shook her head.
But then thought…
"How about the house?" She suggested.
"The house?" Mallow questioned.
"Where we use to live before shit hit the fan." Gladion explained as he kicked the door open to see the long path going to a large mansion. However, the path was covered in Skull grunts with both Guzma and Plumeria at the end.
"Team Skull!" Lana shouted.
"What are they doing here?" Kiawe muttered.
"Yo, yo! About to kick some ass!" a grunt shouted as Guzma watched from a distance.
"Should we help them?" Plumeria asked her leader.
He didn't respond. He had a lot on his mind.
Elsewhere, on Ula'Ula Island, Nanu was in a bar, drinking away as his mind away only for his phone to start ringing. He looked at the ID which didn't display anything.
He sighed as he picked up the phone.
"I told you to never call me again." Nanu said as he took another drink.
"It's been to long 000."
"I prefer to be called by my actually name. What do you want?" Nanu told the person that called him.
"We have reports picking up distress levels in Alola, taken above the 0.5 mark for the first time since Glutton attack all those years ago."
"Don't remind me." Nanu hissed as he swirled his drink.
"Right. Sorry I forgot about Claudia…"
"Don't worry. Everything is sorted." Nanu told the ringer.
"We said that last time and then look what happened."
Nanu pulled out a picture of a younger version of him, a woman and a young child.
"You remember that photo you took?" Nanu asked.
"Yeah..."
"Still remember that day just as if it was yesterday. I lost the love of my life, my child, my niece lost both of her parents and… We lost the faller. It ate them all just like that…" Nanu told him.
The caller stayed silent.
"I lied to my niece by telling her that her parents were killed in shooting." Nanu told the caller. "I'll call if something happens."
"Do so."
Nanu hung up as he sighed.
Lusamine with Wicke and Faba at her side walked into a large room with scientists all around. At the end with the roof removed above it was a large electrical like tower.
Around the room was Pokemon frozen which included a Slowpoke, a Hoothoot, a Pyukumuku and a Pichu.
Wicke gulped as Lusamine stepped forwards.
"Where is it?" Lusamine demanded as a scientist brought a box with two metal plates on the sides in front of the President.
"P-pew…" Nebby cried inside the box.
"Would you shut up! For such a small Pokemon, you make so much noise!" Lusamine yelled. She looked up at the tower and grinned. "Soon you'll be silent! Once and for all!"
"Madam President. We have managed to successfully track down Symbiont, Beauty and Absorption!" A scientist yelled as Lusamine smirked.
"Excellent…" Lusamine grinned. "Attempt to find more!"
The scientist nodded as he grabbed the cage Nebby was in that reduced its ability to teleport.
The final Skull grunts Pokemon was defeated, all that remained was Guzma and Plumeria.
"Alright, Let's do thi-"Plumeria started only to be cut off by Guzma.
"No." he muttered.
Plumeria turned to him.
"No? What do you mean 'no'?" she asked.
"We are letting them through. Ash managed to defeat me back at Po-town. They have like 4 trial captains and some others as well." Guzma told her.
Plumeria gave a cross look.
"Are you going soft?" she hissed.
Before Guzma could start, Ash and Co were right in front of them.
"What a pleasant surprise to see you." Guzma announced as he looked at Gladion specifically. He noticed Lillie who was roughed up and holding Ash's hand. Guzma snorted. "You two a thing now?"
"It's over Guzma. Team Skull is finished!" Ash snapped at the leader.
"Yeah. You're right. It is." Guzma confessed.
Everyone including grunt that could hear his cry, gave looks of shock.
"What!?" Plumeria screeched.
Guzma looked at the two blondes.
"At my weakest time, when all I had was my Pokemon and my aggression, your mother stood by me and saw my potential. She gave me a home in Konikoni. I owe her my life!" Guzma shouted.
Everyone stood their grounds.
"All the members of Team Skull are like me: Lost on where their place is in the world! When your mother told me to use my aggression as an advantage, I formed this life!" Guzma continued.
"Guzma… What your parents did to you doesn't mean you have to reflect on them now!" Ash told the white-haired man.
"I lost everything! My sister! My friends! My childhood dream! If I couldn't be a trial captain, I was going make sure Alola knew my name another way!" Guzma broke down.
"Your mother… Her plans are beyond this world… Literally." Guzma said as he stepped aside.
"I'm not moving!" Plumeria hissed as she was about to throw out Toxapex.
"Plumeria. As final act as Skull boss, I command you to step aside!" Guzma shouted. Plumeria looked shocked as she did as told.
"Ketchum. When I was your age… I was the best. I still see a lot of me inside of you. Don't make the same mistakes I did." Guzma lectured him.
Ash nodded in respect as the group walked past and into the mansion as they proceeded to the far back room where there was a narrow entrance in it.
Guzma watched them enter the house and sighed as he had to follow Lusamine's final order.
"Plumeria. If you wish to continue Team Skull, you are the new leader. What I'm about to do is probably going to get me killed." Guzma told her as she started to look confused. "Do not follow me."
He began to walk the same way the group did.
"Lock and loaded…" A scientist announced as the door going into the building opened as everyone already inside which included Lusamine, Wicke and Faba, turned to see the infiltrators.
Lusamine smirked.
They felt sick at the sight of the frozen Pokemon as they looked happy and alive but were frozen completely still.
"Lusamine." Gladion called out.
She leant against some railing as she looked down on the group which included the soldiers.
"Like my collection? I gathered some of my favourite Pokemon and frozen them so I can ensure their beauty for the rest of time!" Lusamine announced. "They are like children to me! CHILDREN THAT WON'T RUN OFF WITH POKEMON THEY STOLE! My daughter whole stole my Cosmog! And my son who stole MY TYPE: NULL!?"
Jack looked at Jargai and mouthed what the fuck.
"Lusamine, calm down." Ash shouted as the blonde laughed.
"Oh, you are such a bad influence on my daughter!" she hissed.
"Don't you dare talk for her!" Ash snapped with Lillie backing behind him
"I AM HER MOTHER! I KNOW WHAT IS BEST!" Lusamine yelled. She calmed herself and glared at her son.
"Oh Gladion… Must you be so untidy? Heh. I remember the cries Ken made when Type: Null killed him! How is that rejected experiment?" Lusamine questioned in anger.
Gladion just glared back.
Finally, she turned to Hau.
"Oh, sweet Hau, you came too? What a shame, I really liked you." Lusamine confessed. "I would rather had you as a son!"
Hau felt awkward at what she was saying.
"Mother… Ple-"Lillie started only to be stopped.
"DO NOT CALL ME THAT! All I ever did was give you two love and what was best! And this!? This is how you repay me!?" she screamed at her daughter. "I wish you were both never born!"
"P-pew…" Nebby cried which Lillie heard.
"NEBBY!" she shouted.
"Oh… Your pet name for my Cosmog huh? I want to try something…" Lusamine laughed.
The box was containing Nebby which was now in the middle of the electrical tower was shocked a little as the small cloud like Pokemon yelp in pain as an earthquake shook the entire region.
On Melemele, Tapu Koko awoke from his sleep.
On Akala, Tapu Lele stopped playing with the Pokemon.
On Ula'Ula, a bulky bull like Pokemon stopped feasting as it saw boulders fall from the mountains.
On Poni, A female like siren Pokemon stopped swimming as the water shook.
"Wh-what was that?" Jack asked out loud.
"Your doom… That was a little electric shock… Imagine what else I could do…" Lusamine cheered at the result. "Imagine… If I kill Cosmog, how many beasts will appear?"
Lillie looked at her mother in shock.
"You're insane!" Mallow shouted at the woman with her fellow trial captains in Kiawe, Lana and Acerola backing her up.
"Zach… Get ready to fight if need be…" Ash muttered to Zach, who nodded.
"Cosmog is alive! Not some toy you can just use!" Lillie screamed at her mother.
"Cosmog is nothing more than a key to get me my precious beasts!"
"Madam! Symbiont is in range!" A scientist shouted as Lusamine grinned with glee.
"Well, say bye to your precious Nebby!" she laughed as the box was blasted with electricity this time instead of a small shock.
The earthquake this time was more violent as a black cloud shot into the air as the whole region was blanketed in dark clouds.
Kukui and Ilima stood outside the trainer school as the wind picked up.
Hala took to the streets of Hau'oli city to direct panicked humans and Pokemon.
Olivia walked out of her jewellery shop and looked at the sky.
Nanu took a sip of his flask and sighed.
Deep within the forest near the Thrifty Megamart, the Pokemon that lived there all looked at the sky as Marshadow popped out of the shadows and gave a look of concern.
Greninja and the Zygarde cores looked at the turn in the conditions.
"I don't like this… I don't like this one bit!" Squishy stuttered as Greninja looked at the sky.
"Wh-what's happening!?" Ilima yelled as Kukui panicked.
"I don't know!" he yelled back as children were being escorted to the fire drill location.
Kukui looked at the sky to see all the Pokemon that could fly was heading away. Turning to the ocean, it was the exact same result.
He pulled out his phone to call his wife. The phone rang over and over again.
"Come Burnet! Pick up!"
"Ku-Kukui?" Burnet squeaked.
"Are you okay?" Kukui asked as another earthquake hit Alola.
"I'm fine… What is happening!?" His wife cried as he looked at the sky again.
"I don't know…" Kukui muttered.
Back at the Aether foundation, the box that contained Nebby, sparked a light blue electricity.
The electricity jolted up and formed into an ultra-wormhole with UB-01 appearing out of it.
"Brr-Brr-Brrrrrttzzzzzt" The Ultra-Beast cried.
"Oh! My precious Nihilego!" Lusamine cried as she approached the beast. The UB wrapped its tentacles around Lusamine's arms as with it was holding her as she looked right at.
Lillie watched in horror.
"MOTHER! Stay away from that thing!?" Lillie shouted.
Lusamine turned, however, her eyes were no longer green but a violent purple.
"No! Don't tell me what to do with my beast!" she roared as the Ultra Beast let go.
"Madam president! Both Beauty and Absorption are in range!"
Lusamine laughed insanely as Silvally was let out.
She stopped laughing and looked at the group.
"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe" Lusamine started to sing as she pointed at everyone minus the soldiers and her children.
"Catch a Liepard by the toe. If he hollers let him go!"
"Eeny." She sang pointing at Kiawe.
"Meeny." She continued to sing but changing to Mallow this time.
"Miny." For a third time and changed to Lana.
"Moe…" she said ominously as she lastly pointed at Hau.
"Oh, my sweet and darling Hau. This is unfortunate…" Lusamine sympathised.
Hau looked at Ash in confusion.
"I apologise Hau. You really are a sweet kid… Drop them in Melemele!" Lusamine yelled as the jolters blasted to full power.
"MOTHER! DON'T DO IT!" Lillie shouted as the box was electrocuted blinding the whole room as the same blue electricity that created the wormhole for Symbiont was fired into the air and into the black clouds.
It travelled through till it reached Melemele with it forming two portals, one on each side of the island.
The people of Hau'oli city ran for their lives as a giant red being, descended from out the portal. It looked to be half man, half bug with very physical features. Dropping out of the other portal was a more feminine looking Ultra beast that was completely white and had a very thin body.
They both landed on the ground and their roars echoed the whole Island.
"Bzz-wwwttzzzzt!"The mosquito like UB roared, punching the street on the city as civilians ran in fear.
"Phro-ooottzzzzt!"The cockroach like one cried as it was in a forest surrounded by terrified Pokemon. Using its beauty, it took control of all their minds.
"YES, MY BEASTS! Destroy everything!" Lusamine shouted.
"Brr-Brr-Brrrrrttzzzzzt" Symbiont cried as its cry echoed the room like soundwaves.
UB-02: Beauty looked to the sky as did its counterpart, Absorption.
In Kanto, appearing out of an old powerplant, was the UB that attack Pallet town.
In Kalos, UB-06: Growth looked from the desert.
And lastly in Sinnoh, the UB that attacked Dawn listened on through the sewer.
A map of the world appeared as there was 6 blinking dots.
"YES! They have revealed themselves! One in Kanto, another in Sinnoh! Ooooo, in Kalos as well!"
"Mother… What have you done?" Lillie cried.
"That's enough Lusamine! Silvally! Use hyperbeam!" Gladion commanded as the chimera like Pokemon fired at Symbiont with it using protect. The beast used sludge bomb as a warning shot.
"How dare you attack my child!" Lusamine cried as the screen turned on, resulting in her grinning. "I suggest you all watch this!"
Everyone turned to the screen as Hau felt sick. Hala was on the TV with him directing people to safety.
(Melemele Island)
"Everyone! This way!" Hala commanded. He stopped as a building not far him, crumbled into pieces as the being that fell from the sky appeared in front of the old Kahuna.
"Bzz-wwwttzzzzt!" The beast roared as it flexed its arms to show its dominance.
Hala took a step back and grunted at the sight of this monster.
"SO! You are the one that fell from the Sky! As Kahuna of Melemele Island! I, Hala, will stop you from doing harm to the people and Pokemon!" Hala roared at the Ultra Beast.
Before he could throw out a pokeball, an electric beam landed between the two as Tapu Koko appeared from it.
"Tapu Koko… You have come to assist?" Hala asked as Tapu Koko stared down with the being as it cracked its knuckles. The two jumped off the spot and collided as electricity took out the signal.
"GRANDPA!" Hau shouted as Lusamine grunted. Hau dropped to the ground as he was now worried sick of the fate of his Grandfather.
"Blasted Tapu! Heh doesn't matter anyways! They haven't fought the Ultra-Beasts in eons!" Lusamine laughed.
"Brr-Brr-Brrrrrttzzzzzt!"
"Oh? It is time to go? Alright then!" Lusamine said to the Ultra-Beast.
"Go?" Ash muttered as he finally got what Guzma meant. "You are going with it in there!?"
"Guzma! Here now!" Lusamine called out. Everyone turned to spot Guzma walking up the towards them. Symbiont teleported him up there next to Lusamine. "Good boy."
"GUZMA! Don't do it!" Ash yelled.
"Sorry Kid… Like I said, I owe her my life." He confessed.
"Ciao!" Lusamine laughed as she and the Ultra-Beast jumped into the portal with Guzma following shortly afterwards. Due to it leaving the portal quickly closed.
"What the fuck just happened?" Duncan swore as Hau was on the ground crying, unsure if his grandfather was alive or not. Ash hugged Lillie as she was in shock at the state of her mother.
Gladion also cursed as Silvally whimpered slightly due to failing to stop the Beast.
"What did she call it? Nehelige?" Jargai said.
"Nihilego." Wicke said as she was finally allowed to step down on the ground floor. "Your mother…"
"Is gone." Gladion muttered.
"So, they come from another world?" Jack questioned as Wicke nodded.
"We know Tapu Koko is with Absorption, but what about Beauty?" Acerola questioned.
Ash and Zach looked at each other concerned as Hau finally picked himself up and gave an aggressive look.
"We have to do something!" Hau yelled.
"I'm with Hau. There is still an Ultra Beast out untended." Ash announced.
"Count me in." Zach said as well.
Gladion nodded.
The trial captains agreed at assist as well.
Ash turned to Lillie.
"You are staying here with Wicke. You are no condition to come with us." Ash told Lillie with a hard tone but she nodded in agreement and kissed him quickly. Gladion saw this and it made his blood boil but now was not the time.
"Nuh uh! I am not going anywhere near those!" Duncan shouted as Jargai nodded in agreement.
"Suit yourself." As Jack stepped forwards.
"Wait? Jack? You are going to fight!?" Duncan questioned.
"We survived once before and this time, we are going to take them down!" Jack announced to his friends. They sighed and ended up following.
(Melemele)
As people were running in fear, a TV NEWS van pulled up and out jumped a reporter and a cameraman.
"How is my hair?" The female reporter asked.
"Fine! We are good to go!" The cameraman told the reporter.
"We are live in downtown Hau'oli City as it is currently under attack by a being that appeared out of the sky and is now fighting the Island Guardian, Tapu Koko. We are the first to report on this news so please follow all upd-"the female reporter explained but was interrupted by Tapu Koko who was punched through a tall building and landed into the side of the church.
The beast appeared through the building as Tapu Koko got up.
"NED! Get the live shot!" the news reporter screamed but her cameraman was running for his life and she quickly followed in suit as Tapu Koko began to roar.
He charged up an electro ball and flung it at the beast but it ripped out a street light and smacked it away. The bug threw the street light at Tapu Koko who closed his shields and used protect.
Hala was running after the commotion.
"Crabominable! Poliwrath! Assist the Tapu!" Hala shouted. The two dual fighting types appeared and growled at the beast who had its full focus on Tapu Koko.
The Tapu roared loudly as a giant bolt of thunder crashed down on him as Tapu Koko released a powerful thunder right at the Ultra-Beast. The beast smashed its fist into the back of a car as it flipped upwards and used it as a shield. It punched the electrocuted car right at Koko who just dodged in time.
Hala didn't want to get to close to the creature so range was his only option at this time.
"Both of you! Bubblebeam!" Hala shouted. He knew it wouldn't do much but he might as well assist somehow.
The two fired the beam of bubbles which the beast felt slightly. The beast turned to the two as they stopped and gave a nervous look.
However, while it looked away, Tapu Koko zoomed in and slammed into the back of it with wild charge, fling the UB into the air. It crashed through a build and landed on a street where people were hiding. It began to flex again as a dazzling gleam was fired its way. The fairy move hit with it groaning in pain.
The UB roared again and looked at the swarm of fleeing people. It picked up a car and threw it towards the crowd as they all screamed in fear, trying to jump out of the way.
Tapu Koko's eyes widened as he flew over and body slammed the car out of the way but was then hit by a powerful dynamic punch. Despite resisting fighting moves, The Tapu of Melemele Island hit that one as he looked up to the Ultra beast flexing yet again. Tapu Koko got up steadily.
Hala moved on to helping again and rescuing the injured.
Tapu Koko's body glowed as he fired a natures madness at the beast who felt half of its life drain away.
As the beast was about to move to do another attack, an energy ball was fired in to the back of it.
A being like Tapu Koko appeared but was much stockier. It resembled more of a farm like pokemon and grunted at the beast as it shook off the attack.
Hala saw this.
"Tapu Bulu! But then… That means…" Hala muttered as he looked at the black sky to see a pink and blue light zoom across the island. Hala realised what this means.
"When the Tapu's finally reunite and battle as a team again only means the world is at a certain doom…"
Bulu and Koko nodded at one another as they got into a battle stance with the beast slamming its fists together and mocking them to come near it.
Elsewhere, where the other Ultra-Beast appeared was now sitting on a throne that was made for it as all the Pokemon that it took control off got ready to swarm the nearest city.
Just as they were about to set off, the remaining two guardian Tapu's, Tapu Lele and Fini, crashed down on to the ground.
Tapu Fini, like Lele, was more feminine compared to their brothers, Koko and Bulu. She had long light blue like hair was ended as looking like fins. She had webbed hands with three blue claws at the end of the fingers. Her body was encased in a shell that looked like the head of a fish.
The Beast laughed and pointed at the psychic fairy type and the water fairy type.
The possessed army started to aim all their forces at the two Tapu's as they attacked from long range or just started to charge at them.
"Lele, we have to stop it!" Fini expressed to her sister.
Tapu Lele nodded.
"Got it!"
"Phro-ooottzzzzt!"
It was an onslaught of moves, ranging from flash cannon, flamethrower, hydro pump and lots more.
Wicke was at a computer typing in codes as the screen flicked yellow.
"Ah ha! Found it!" Wicke shouted as everyone gathered around her.
"UB-02: Beauty…" Ash muttered, looking at the live satellite feed. On the screen as well was an army of Pokemon plus Tapu Lele and a Pokemon that looked similar.
"Why are those Pokemon fighting for the Ultra Beast?" Lana asked.
"We believe that Beauty has the capabilities to control others by just having them look at it due to how beautiful it is…" Wicke explain. "While on the other hand, it's counterpart, UB-02: Absorption focuses in brute strength and showing off."
It seemed like the two Tapu's on screen were fighting the army of possessed Pokemon.
"Even the Tapu's are struggling against them?" Zach questioned.
"I don't know…" Wicke told the group. "The two on screen is Tapu Lele of Akala Island and the other is Tapu Fini of Poni Island."
"What is the fastest way to there?" Hau shouted in frustration.
"Um… We have a private jet?" Wicke told the Melemele native.
Wicke explained to the pilot what was happening as everyone boarded. Wicke stayed behind but communicated with them via computer.
"Remember! This is an Ultra Beast! This is not some powerful wild Pokemon that you can beat with ease." Wicke explained. She sighed before talking again. "You are about um, 20ish minutes away."
Bulu roared as two giant vines appeared from out of the ground and wrapped around Absorptions arms.
The Ultra Beast looked at them and began to pull and with one clean pull, the vines were ripped out of the ground. It used the chance to whip at the Tapu's before they went limp.
Tapu Koko zoomed forward and slammed into the chest of the UB, causing it to fly backwards but it landed on its four insect like legs. It clapped its hands together, making a wave of energy. It hit the Melemele Tapu as he slammed into the ground.
Hala ran over to Tapu Koko who was barely getting up.
The horns on Tapu Bulu glowed green as he jabbed at the Ultra Beast but it daringly, grabbed the horns and throw he into a gasoline truck, resulting in an explosion.
Both Hala and Tapu Koko were hit by flying debris as Hala fell to the ground and began to cough heavily.
"Ooo… I'm getting to old for this…" the old man groaned as the piece of metal that hit him did serious damage to his spine.
Tapu Koko lifted himself up and roared loudly as an aura fused around him. The UB watched in curiosity on what was happening.
Tapu Koko closed his shield like arms as a grey energy like figure appeared from the ground. As the Tapu joined on to the body, it turned yellow with electricity swarming around it.
The fighting bug roared loudly as it charged at Tapu Koko. The guardian of Alola flung his fist down on to the Ultra Beast who did the same as electricity volts off the duo with strikes being seen on the other three Islands.
UB-02: Absorption was now heavily damaged and covered in Static while the power-up for Tapu Koko faded and resulted the fairy electric to falling unconscious as he landed next to the injured Kahuna.
"Tapu… Koko! Get up…!" Hala shouted but got no response before passing out.
As the Ultra Beast approached the pair, a large camper van was thrown at it, crushing the UB at first time it rolled if it.
Tapu Bulu flew down in front of the two as the Ultra Beast got up barely and began to flex again.
Bulu charged up one hyper beam and as usual, the UB tried to fight it but as it jumped, the paralysis came into effect and the powerful normal move hit it straight into the chest.
A man was running past when he saw the Kahuna struggling on the ground next to the island Guardian as Tapu Bulu was brawling with Absorption.
"Holy shit! It's the Kahuna! Hang on!" the man shouted as he tried to help Hala who groaned in pain. "HELP! HELP!"
People heard the cry for help and came over to assist the man with Hala and Tapu Koko as Bulu held off the Ultra Beast.
The jet landed near the last pinpointed location of UB-02: Beauty as everyone got off.
Ash let out Incineroar, Decidueye, Bewear, Mimikyu, Kirlia and Salandit.
Hau sent out Primarina, Raichu, Hakamo-o and Umbreon.
Gladion followed the pair and sent out Silvally, Crobat, Lucario and Weavile
The four-trial captain let loose Tsareena, Araquanid, Dhelmise, Marowak and Turtonator.
Zach brought out his own Lucario followed up by Litten, Lycanroc midnight and lastly a Dragonair.
The base survivors didn't really know what to do so they just stayed at the jet.
The group looked down and saw the army of Pokemon with the two Tapu's holding them off as Beauty sat at the end.
"Let's make ourselves known, now shall we?" Ash announced as all the Pokemon let out a mighty roar.
Decidueye, Incineroar and Primarina were the first to let loose with spirit shackle, darkest lariat and sparkling aria.
The long-range ghost and water moves crashed into the army while Incineroar swirled into the crowd and smacked as many Pokemon as he could.
Beauty saw this and looked on.
All the other Pokemon jumped down and began to fight.
There were still more wild Pokemon compared to the trainers Pokemon but their Pokemon were stronger.
They all took on their retrospective type advantage. Bewear flung a powerful hammer arm right into an Exploud and was joined taking on the normal types on by Zach's Lucario who was firing aura spheres at them.
Thanks to her ability, Salandit sprayed everyone with toxic including the steel types that were present like Aggron which was currently taking on Tsareena and Araquanid.
Crobat and Weavile dealt with the possessed grass types, slicing and chopping at them all with ease and Marowak decided to assist them.
Kirlia used psychic to lift and throw the Pokemon on to Turtonator who kept spamming shell trap. He tried to lift a wild Snorlax but was struggling with it till Tapu Lele came and helped.
Elsewhere in the battle zone, Mimikyu slashed away at a Trevenant. The grass ghost blocked the swipes caused by shadow claw till Dhelmise appeared from behind and wrapped its anchor around the Kalos Pokemon to allow Mimikyu to get a clean hit with a shadow ball.
Umbreon plus Litten and Lycanroc were dealing with the swarm of bugs that were present. Umbreon sprayed them with poison, allowing Lycanroc to crush them with rock throw and Litten to blast at them with flame burst.
The Dragonair that Zach owned used dragon tail on a wild Pyroar as the male was hit into the air and landed in front of Beauty with the Ultra Beast still just watching the battle.
"Why isn't it doing anything?" Hau shouted as Raichu used an iron tail on Azumarill.
"No clue!" Ash yelled back as Decidueye fired arrows from distance and tried his luck with hitting the Ultra Beast. He tried it right at it only for the beast to catch it despite the arrow going at a blistering pace.
The beast finally stood up and let out a roar.
"Phro-ooottzzzzt!"
Its large eyes locked on to Bewear as it moved at the blink of an eye and smashed its foot right into Bewear with the strong arm Pokemon landing on his back, fainted after one hit. Bewear ended up landing on Umbreon with the dark type failing to move.
"BEWEAR!" Ash yelled as the beast got a red aura glow around it.
Greninja heard Ash's cry in his head and turned to the direction of it.
"What did you sense?" Z2 asked as Greninja didn't respond but started to run instead.
"GRENINJA! WAIT!" Squishy yelled as Greninja ran at full force.
Tsereena, Raichu and Kirlia were taken out by a powerful bug buzz as the Ultra Beast went into full attack mode. Three separate auras fused into the beast.
"Silvally! Multi-attack!" Gladion yelled as the synthetic Pokemon charged at the beast with the fire memory in as his claw glowed red. Every time Silvally would jumped down to attack, Beauty would just move out of the way as he was going around in circles.
The beast formed a ball of ice and smashed it down on the ground with a giant blizzard devouring the area.
Hakamo-o, Crobat, Dragonair, Lycanroc, Dhelmise and Decidueye fell to the powerful ice move as everyone looked in shock.
Salandit tried to spray toxic on to the beast but it dodged out the way and lifted its leg up to slam it in to Salandit. However, Incineroar pushed Salandit out of the way and was kicked from a high jump kick. Incineroar rolled but got up slowly.
He fired a flamethrower at the beast but it simply moved and dashed at Incineroar, slamming its foot right under his chin. The Heel Pokemon was flung back into the side of a cliff and landed on the ground.
The beast started to approach the injured Incineroar which Ash saw.
"Mimikyu!"
Mimikyu fired a shadow, both Lucario's let out an aura sphere and Marowak flung a shadow bone at it.
With one simple around the world kick, the beast ended up sending the attacks right back at them, all fainting due to the high pace speed.
All that remind now was Salandit, Primarina, Silvally, Weavile, Araquanid, Turtonator and Litten.
Tapu Lele flew at the beast but was too fast, dodging out of the way and attack by a bug buzz. She crashed to the ground as her sister tended to her wounds.
Salandit spewed poison on to the leg of the beast with it turning to the female in absolute rage.
It dashed at the poison fire type and kicked Salandit as she landed right into Incineroar.
The two fire types tried to fight back by spitting fire at the beast but everything was deflected. The beast lifted its arm into the air as Incineroar held on to Salandit as they both closed their eyes.
"INCINEROAR!" Ash yelled.
"SILVALLY! DO SOMETHING!" Gladion shouted.
But out of nowhere, a object was flung in at a rapid pace and hit the hand of the beast as it clutched it in pain. The beast took a step back and looked to see where its attacker was.
"Up there!" Lana yelled
Standing at the top of cliff was a Pokemon, but due to the sun being right it, it was just a silhouette.
But Ash's heart stopped beating as he knew just from the shape.
"N-no…" he muttered as the being jumped down in between the two as the figure revealed to be a powerful looking Greninja. The two fire types looked at each other in confusion.
"GEEKO!" Greninja roared as he flung an onslaught of water shurikens at the beast who deflected each one but could tell this Pokemon was on a different level to the others.
"Where did this Greninja come from?" Mallow questioned.
"No clue…" Zach responded as they all turned to the shocked looking Ash as the two stared at each other.
Gladion was the first to put it together and now, wanted to see what Ash could really do.
The pair gave an aggressive look as Greninja got into a battle stance.
"GRENINJA! Night slash!" Ash called as Greninja ran at the beast. Unlike the slaughterhouse that was before, Greninja was keeping up with the beast who kicked at him but he deflected the powerful kicks with the night slash and vice-versa.
The two jumped backwards from each other.
"Water shuriken!" Ash commanded as the Kalos starter threw the shurikens of water at the beast who barely dodged them to its surprise.
"No way… THAT'S YOUR GRENINJA!?" Hau shouted in gleam.
Weavile was over with Incineroar and Salandit, helping them back. The beast saw this and dashed at them but was blocked by Greninja using aqua jet.
"Phro-ooottzzzzt!"
"GRENINJA! IKA!" Ash called as a ring of water formed around Greninja before completely engulfing him in it as he grew bigger. Everyone, including the Ultra Beast watched dumbfounded by the fact Greninja now looked like Ash slightly.
"Slash!"
A katana like blade formed as Greninja, fasted than ever before slashed at the beast who kicked the blade in half but the water dark type managed to grab both and continued to attack.
"Vall…" Silvally cried to his trainer as Gladion watched the battle.
The beast kicked Greninja in the side of the leg, forcing him to the ground as he groaned in pain. As it was about to attack Greninja with brick break, the frog rolled out of the way and cut off Beauty's hand as it shrieked in pain.
Greninja fled backwards as the beast now stumbled around in pain before looking up at Greninja.
"Aqua jet!" Ash yelled.
Water formed around Greninja as he zoomed at the UB, catching it and slamming through all the trees before reaching the cliff side as Greninja pressed it against the cliff to dig into it. The beast used high jump kick and slammed its foot into his stomach as Ash clutched it in pain.
Greninja was in the air and used all the water from the aqua jet and turned it into a water shuriken, firing it right at the beast.
It barely dodged. Covered in dirt and blood, the beast roared again at its opponent.
The beast turned to where the humans were and fired an ice-beam right at them only to have it blocked by a dragon pulse as two black and green dogs appeared and landed next to Greninja.
"We told you to not run off!" Z2 growled.
Ash could not believe that Zygarde was here.
He turned to the battle and gave a determined look.
Ash thought of a plan to finish this once and for all!
"Greninja! Get ready for flaming mega shuriken!" Ash shouted as Greninja nodded.
Ash turned to everyone else.
"I need every Pokemon that knows toxic or some poison inflecting move to use it on Greninja! NOW!" Ash called out. Everyone was stunned by the cry but avoided argument and went with it.
The poison stacked on to Greninja as both he and Ash felt the toxic substance affect them.
Beauty charged at Greninja and proceeded to kick at him but he blocked each move with slash.
"Arg… Any-anything you can do… We can do faster!" Ash shouted as Greninja dropped to the ground and hacked at the Ultra Beast leg then slammed a powerful aerial ace right under the chin of the beast, sending it in to the air.
"Zygarde! Control the earth and send Greninja up!" Ash grunted as the poison really started to kick in.
The hounds both nodded as the piece of land the frog was on ended up being shot into the air as Beauty glared in fury as its opponent stood over it.
"Incineroar! Flame burst on Greninja!" Ash cried out.
Incineroar gave a look of complete shock as he was being asked to attack this Greninja that was helping them
"Ash!? WHAT!?" Mallow screamed. Due to Greninja being covered in the flammable substance, it was going to create some form of large explosion.
"DO IT!" Ash yelled as Beauty began to get up.
Incineroar pushed Salandit at he roared, firing the fire move right at kalos starter as both Greninja and Ash braced for the incoming pain.
The fire collided with Greninja as he was set alight completely.
"DOUBLE TEAM!" Ash screamed, feeling the pain of the frog and hoping this would work.
And thankfully, it did.
Instead of being clones of Greninja, the flames and smoke from the chemical explosion formed into beings that resembled Greninja as the real frog jumped off the crumbling platform he was on, with only mere cuts and burns on his body. The sky was filled with them as everyone watched in awe except Beauty, who couldn't move due to the injury on its leg.
"MEGA SHURIKEN!" Ash commanded as Greninja roared in sync.
He pulled off the water shuriken on his back as it sucked up the flame and smoke copies, glowing a bright red before shattering and appearing as a large fire shuriken with flames expelling at the end of each point.
Beauty looked up in fear as Greninja flung the shuriken of fire into where it was standing, resulting in a large fire beam being shot into the air. The heat was so intense, everyone but Ash, Greninja and the fire types turned away.
Once over, Beauty laid inside of a crater, blackened and burned. From where they were, they couldn't tell if it was dead or alive.
Greninja landed as Ash walked down the platform they were on as everyone looked at the pair reuniting.
The two-stood opposite of each other both heavy looks.
"Greninja…" Ash muttered.
"Geec…" Greninja responded back.
The two both continued to look at each other before eventually being each other into a tight hug and crying into one another.
"H-h-how did y-you?" Ash stuttered before hearing a familiar voice.
"Ehem…" Z2 coughed.
"Z2! Squishy!" Ash cried as he rubbed both the dogs under their chins.
"When Greninja fought the Ultra Beast in Kalos, the connection you made allowed us to track you to here. Thankfully, some call earlier allowed us to find you here!" Squishy explained as the pair reverted to their core form as Greninja picked them.
"Goodra says hi by the way and wishes to one-day return…" Z2 told the Kanto born as he nodded with a smile.
Elsewhere, Gladion and Silvally walked over to the burnt body of UB-02: Beauty as it remained motionless.
"So… They can be defeated… But." Gladion muttered as he turned to Ash and Greninja as the other came down to greet them. "That Greninja is something else."
Incineroar turned to Salandit and told her that she was very brave today vs the Ultra Beast. Salandit felt warm in fuzzy inside. She had cooled her interest in the cat since he evolved but now felt the ember come alive again.
"Landi!" Salandit cried in happiness as she jumped into Incineroars arms and began to glow as she evolved in to Salazzle. Everyone watched in complete surprise but none more than Incineroar who was in a look of shock as Salazzle pinned him down and rubbed her head against his.
"Ror!" Incineroar pleaded for help as he thought she had gotten over the whole stalker phase.
Everyone laughed as a phone began to ring which turned to be Hau's.
The caller ID belonged to the Hau'oli Pokemon centre as he picked it up and spoke to the other end of the phone. He paled as he heard the news and looked like he saw a ghost.
Ash was the first to notice to this and grew great concern for his friend.
"Hau?" Ash called as the Melemele native collapsed to the ground in a complete look of shock. He dropped the phone as Ash picked up as everyone looked in confusion.
"Hello? I'm Hau's frie-" Ash began to talk and then received the news.
Ash turned to Gladion.
"We need to get to the Hau'oli city Pokemon centre now!" Ash yelled as he helped Hau up who paled more.
Gladion nodded as he knew the each Pokemon centre has a helicopter pad they could land the plane on.
(15 minutes later)
Ash and Hau smashed through the clustered Pokemon centre with nurses and doctors running everywhere. Ash dragged Hau to desk.
"Hala!" Ash yelled as the receptionist recognised Hau and nodded, escorting the pair to what no one wanted to see.
Both Hala and Tapu Koko were unconscious on medical beds.
Hau looked at his grandfather and didn't feel like crying due to the amount of shock he was in.
"We have forced Hala in to a medical coma to hopefully stable his condition." The nurse explained as Ash turned to Hau who just was staring.
Gladion walked in by himself and stood next to Ash and saw the state of the old Kahuna.
"Hau would you like us to leave?" Ash asked but got no response.
The last 48 hours had been a nightmare for him…
First getting attacked by Team Skull.
Second losing to Nanu.
And now this…
Ash, Gladion and the nurse left Hau and stood outside.
"Is he going to make it?" Ash asked, noting wanting to say anything in front of Hau.
Nurse gave a conflicted look.
"We won't know till the morning…" she confessed as she had to rush off to attend another patient.
Gladion sighed as he ran his fingers through his hair.
"He has to make it…" Ash muttered.
"We should tell the others… Best not to leave them in the dark." Gladion told the Kanto born.
Ash proceeded to explain the horrifying news to the others as they all gave looks of sadness. As much as they didn't get along, Mallow ran to see her cousin despite Ash's cries not too.
Mallow returned back in tears as she hugged Kiawe, not able to see the condition of her cousins grandfather.
Ash walked back in there to find that Hau had forced himself asleep on a chair as he looked at the old man and the Tapu.
"Chosen one."
Ash heard the voice and spun around to see no one.
"The window."
Ash walked over to the window to find a figure like Tapu Koko floating outside.
"I am Tapu Bulu. Guardian of Ula'Ula." Tapu Bulu introduced.
Ash stayed silent.
"The Ultra Beast managed to flee before I could finish it off but it did its job as you may see." Tapu Bulu explained, making Ash sick that the other creature that appeared was still out there. "Old man Hala I am afraid is not going to make it."
Ash sighed heavily as he had accepted that as well as hard as it was.
"My brother will recover but the Kahuna of Melemele, his time is over. It's just a matter of when. Take care in these dark times." Tapu Bulu explained before flying off.
Ash sat in the chair next to Hau and made sure not to wake him up. Ash knew they had get Lusamine and Guzma out of wherever they went and soon. He wrote a note and left it on Hau's lap and walked off.
The crew returned to the Aether paradise and delivered the horrible news about Hala to Lillie who cried hot tears as she hugged Ash.
Ash, Lillie, Gladion, Zach and Trial captains retuned to where Lusamine summoned the beasts as the army lot but Jack had no interest.
Some scientists were firing lasers to cut open the box Nebby was silently sitting in.
A loud clunk sound happened as the scientists nodded
"We have broken in!" a scientist called out as the box that contained Nebby flew to ground.
However, Nebby was no long the same.
He had grown smaller and had a golden shell around it. Inside the shell was a space like background with a ball floating in it. Said ball had two lines on the front, one red and one blue with its eyes closed.
"N-n-Nebby?" Lillie said shakily as everyone looked at what Cosmog had become.
"Is that thing Nebby?" Lana questioned as Gladion snatched some scanner thing off a scientist and waved it over the being.
He gave a look of shock.
"It appears to be dead but at same time, it's not…" Gladion announced.
"What does that even mean?!" Ash asked.
Gladion shook his head.
"I don't know, I'm just reading what it says… Point is, our mother turned Cosmog into this." Gladion explained. "And as much as she had done in the last 24 hours, we can't leave her and Guzma in there!"
"How are even meant to open a portal? I don't think the one we beat will be very willing?" Zach questioned as Gladion pinched his noise.
"What about the legends of Alola?" Acerola suggested as everyone turned to her.
"The legends?" Gladion muttered as that rang a bell in everyone's else's ears.
"Solgaleo and Lunala?" Ash piped up.
"I mean if the Ultra Beasts are real in the story then what's not to say they aren't?" Acerola suggested.
"Alright fine! But even if they are real, how are we meant to find them?!" Mallow yelled.
Acerola pulled out a small book and flipped to a certain page.
"Ash. Lillie. You remember that book you read in the library? This book was found inside the actual hard cover, allow me!" Acerola explained.
"At the pinnacle where man touches the heavens.
An ever-crisp melody to bring harmony to noon.
The beast of the sun and the beast of the moon ever lay so still.
In the cocoon of the stars, silent as a storm brews.
The two flutes blessed in trouble times.
One for the sun and one for the moon.
But the beast will only hear the tune if played by the ones,
The prince of sun and princess of the moon."
"So… If we find these flutes? We can call the legends?" Kiawe questioned as Acerola shrugged her shoulders.
Wicke coughed as everyone turned to her.
"We may have something you might want to look at… Not here though." Wicke explained.
Lillie tried to move Nebby but failed as he was to heavy now.
"What the?" She muttered as Scientist placed Nebby inside a container.
"This will allow you to carry it."
They all evacuated and ended up in Lusamine's bedroom were both her kids had PDST.
Wicke grabbed a key and unlocked a box to grab out a flute with a sun attached to it.
"I believe your mother planned to do something with this…" Wicke explained as Ash grabbed the orange flute. "We believe the moon flute is located somewhere on Poni Island. Then all you have to do is head to the Alter. I am so sorry for everything!"
"It's not your fault. We should all get some rest…" Gladion announced as he left followed by the rest but Ash and Lillie.
"I used to sleep in this bed with her… Whenever I was scared… I don't know when she went like how she is… I remember playing out in the rain. She saw me and rushed outside, I thought she was going to yell but she didn't. She played with me and we ended up both getting sick." Lillie explained to Ash as she cried. "P-P-Please Ash! Help me get my mother back!"
Ash hugged her and they looked into each other's eyes as they locked lips. They pulled away as he placed his forehead on hers.
"Lillie… I am going to do everything in my power to save Lusamine…" Ash told her as Lillie nodded.
She decided to sleep in her mother's bed while Ash got ready to sleep in the blow out mattress.
Lillie sighed and knew if Gladion saw them, he would kill Ash.
"You could sleep up here?" Lillie squeaked. Ash turned to her in a confused look. "I feel bad. We could place pillows in the middle so nothing happens…"
Ash sighed and decided to go with the idea as he turned off the light.
"Lillie…"
"Yes Ash…"
"After this is all over, I think I want to stay in Alola. To continue to fight with Hau, Zach and even Gladion. To see new Pokemon and most importantly. Stay with you." He told her as she smiled in the dark.
"I would like that…" she muttered as they both called it a night.
Authors note: Oh Boy oh boy. Getting into the real juicy stuff now.
I won't lie, I was disappointed we didn't see more of Koko vs whoever in the actual Game so decided to flesh it out more.
The other UB's will appear so don't worry on that department.
A LOT WENT DOWN:
Lusamine is beyond being a psychopath and dumps some over grown bugs on Melemele.
Hala is in critical care.
Salandit evolved.
Greninja and Ash reunite
And now, we are hitting the pinnacle of the first part!
WHICH IN SPEAKING OF:
I have had questions about this and will explain:
The Second part will be based of USUM with the chapters in the little drop down box having USUM in the title so EG: USUM Chapter 1
That's when revenge or what will happen ect.
BUT it all depends on USUM's story which I will probs take a week off to play. I need to know more about the Recon Squad before writing about them if that makes sense.
Questions:
lol, i see that inspiration for Lillie's memory loss from SM049 tho
Ironically, I have had that planned way long ago as the Quiet room was first mentioned in chapter 11 which was like February or March.
But will there be any major character deaths?
Maybe...
Can you make a personal z move for Greninja that involves water shuriken?
I thought about it but then thought, this frog is already busted as it is... Not saying it won't happen in the future.
1st this story got an update
Then I caught a Shiny Magikarp
Congratz. Yeah, When I'm not doing school work or writing this, I tend to do shiny hunting. Only really got into it in the last four or so months. Nearly got a box full though plus event ones like Tapu Koko.
Will Ash get a Manitine for the 'surf' feature?
Yep. Eventually.
Are you still accepting OC's for the league and for the second part of the story?
Yeah I will be. Don't worry if you have sent one already in, I have a word doc with them all recorded ready for the league. Second half, I might see once I've played USUM.
What's stopping the Ultra Beasts that came to Alola by Lusamine to go after her blood for being taken away from their home world?
Plot, that's what.
Do you think that Gladion will have different Pokemon other than Silvally in ultra sun and moon games?
Hmm, maybe new Alolan form hopefully? If memory serves, he didn't have one and only had 5 mons. Someone pointed this out. In the Japanese trailer with mantine surf, Hau in paniola town has 4 pokemon. In sun and moon at that point he only had 2. His starter and a pikachu which turned into that god damn Raichu T-T
will you be planning to do other fanfics or create a sequel to this one
Hmm, I haven't really thought about that. Who knows.
Will Ash be traveling around the Pokemon world in the second part of this fanfic?
Not all over the world, but yes. There will be places outside of Alola.
How fucked up is this shit going to get!?
This Chapter is the start of it.
so, will the second half of the story start after Poni Island and the League, or will the Second Half of the story include Poni Island, and the league?
After the Poni Island and the league.
Wtf means PM?! Im german explain pls :3
Private message.
Why didn't Ash use the Incinium Z instead of Fireium ZInferno Overdrive)?
Good question in which he should have but I think I was so tried at the time, just forgot lmao.
So as always, Review, suggest or PM me! Spectre out!
