ALOLA TO OUR SAVIOUR: Chapter 62 - Ghost of you.
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon :/
They arrived in Alola and this is how he treated her?
As soon as Gladion and Dawn returned back to the Alola region, he received word that Ash and Lillie were coming to have a conversation about their little new friend.
And because Gladion wasn't a miracle maker, he didn't need the stress of Ash and Dawn facing off out of the blue.
So, the best solution he had?
Lock her in a room.
It was a nice room. Had a computer, a nice-looking bed.
Dawn groaned as her head rested on the door.
She knew what this was about.
Deep within the labs of Aether, Poipole had a helmet like structure wrapped around his head with blood pressure straps attached to his tiny arms.
Ash, Lillie and Gladion observed the monitor which showed some wavy like lines which was apparently Poipole's DNA signature.
Below his was Pheromosa's AKA UB-02: Beauty.
They weren't a perfect match, but similarities were certainly there.
"Ok. You see these blue and magenta lines. Notice how they match with Pheromosa's? They are the lines in the genetic coding that give Ultra Beasts that ring at the end of noises. All I can say is, this thing is a UB." Gladion explained as Poipole smiled.
"He seems no harm." Ash added.
"You say that now but what about when it grows older?"
"What like evolution? But Ultra Beasts don't evolve." Lillie questioned.
Gladion shrugged his shoulders.
"Before a day or two ago, we didn't even know of this things existence let alone, the whole of Ultra Space." Gladion assured.
"The two men arrested for possession of child pornography have been sentence to life in prison. There last known public words were spacemen people." The TV report went.
Gladion's eyes widened as he spans to the TV to turn it up, but the report was already over.
Ash, Lillie and Poipole looked at each other.
"What's up?" Ash asked.
He could see the agitated look on the young president's face, but he shook it off as it came visible.
"Doesn't matter. I thought I heard something, but it was nothing." Gladion explained.
Lillie stepped forwards.
"Brother. I can tell when you are lying." Lillie said to her older sibling.
He sighed.
"You were always good with that. Look, it's not important but if something escalates, I will let you know. You should get going." Gladion suggested.
The three left the Aether Paradise as Gladion sighed.
He let Dawn free as she stepped out and saw the concerned look on Gladions face…
This scared her as he was never one to show emotion.
"What's up?" Dawn asked.
"I need an hour or two to think…" Gladion muttered before walking away.
(Hau Oli School)
It was 2 AM as most normal beings were asleep at this point…
Unless you worked night shift.
A security guard as wandering around the hallways of the school, whistling to himself.
However, that whistle was quickly stopped as he felt a flowing chill creep up his back and into the hairs above his neck.
He spun around to find no one behind him.
The guard pulled out a touch and scanned the area in front of him.
"Huh…"
He shrugged his shoulders and turned off the light.
But upon turning around…
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The scream of horror echoed out of the building with the human being running out of the facility with the door's being forced shut behind him…
(A few hours later)
The usual happened… Except for the fact their new Ultra Beast Pokemon had set a light to a carpet with the acid dripping out of the points on his head. Thankfully, Greninja put it out before it got to serious.
The young couple understood that looking after a baby Ultra Beast was going to be a mission and had to be careful if he turned out like all the others they had encountered so far.
Lillie left as usual to head off to the school but as she was driving by, she noticed a large crowd standing in front of the school battlefield.
The crowd looked large enough to be the whole of the senior syndicate.
She parked in the teachers car park and headed over the crowd.
"Teacher coming through!" Lillie shouted.
Zossie was at the front of the crowd as Lillie forced her way to the front to be met with the shocking discovery.
Desks and chairs from the nearby class room were thrown out side and stacked in the form of mountain.
Ilima and Kukui were there as well.
"Oh god…" Lillie muttered as it clicked that something happened in the early hours of the morning.
Everyone pitched in and though it took 2ish hours, everything was sorted but by the time they were finished, it was now interval.
The teachers were in an urgent meeting.
Zossie was outside with some 'friends'. She would like to call them that but really, she believed they were just being nice to her.
"What do you think happened to all the stuff outside?" One of the girls in the group questioned.
"Maybe it was those spacemen the TV kept reporting about."
Zossie felt her heart sink at hearing this.
"Sp-Spacemen?" She stuttered.
"Yeh. My parents were watching the NEWs while we were having dinner and some report about alien spacemen attacking innocents popped up." Rochelle, a girl in the group explained.
"You wanna know what I think it was?" A familiar and loud voice yelled out.
It was Henry, the school bully.
"What do you want Henry? After Zossie humiliated you, I suggest you show some manners!" Rochelle snapped.
"Chill alright. I reckon it's the ghost of Silent Mia!" Henry said in a spooky tone.
A few girls looked frightened, Zossie didn't get it and Rochelle gave a annoyed look.
"Gh-Ghost?" Zossie stuttered.
"30 years ago, a girl that went here known as Mia suddenly disappeared. She was a quiet girl, so no one noticed at first. Legend has it a Hypno met her and took her away to a Drifloon where it stole her soul and the pair brutally murdered her! Her dead body was found on the school field and since, people say that they see her walking the hallways with the very same Drifloon!" Henry explained.
"Ghosts aren't real." Rochelle countered.
"Ghost ty- " Henry started.
"Those don't count."
"Whatever. Warning you new girl, Silent Mia is coming for you!" Henry laughed as he walked off.
"Ignore him. He is probably still angry that you defeated him so easily." Rochelle told Zossie.
The ginger wasn't afraid of no ghosts. She has dealt with much worse.
What bothered her is the spacemen report.
She had to tell Dulse and fast.
Before it was too late…
Lillie was on edge for the rest of the day till the moment she got home.
Something like that doesn't happen out of the blue…
She was trying to come to a logical conclusion at what had happened.
School joke?
Rogue members of Team Skull?
A Pokemon?
That's when Lillie stopped.
An Ultra Beast?
She shook her head as that would make no sense in why a Ultra Beast would have such great interest in wreaking a school.
"Hey! I am home."
Popping his head around the corner was Poipole who flew over to Lillie happily.
"Piol-zzt!"
Ash ran around the corner as he didn't hear Lillie at first but was really just chasing after Poipole.
"Oh. Hey, welcome home." Ash said as he caught the playful and energetic Ultra Beast in his arms who giggled away.
Ash raised an eyebrow as he noticed the conflicted look on his girlfriend's face.
"You okay?"
"I don't know. I need a drink that's what." Lillie said tiresome.
Lillie got a glass of wine and drank at it while she planned the questioning game.
"Do you know if Poipole was at home last night?" Lillie questioned.
"Uh… Yeh. Where would the little fella go?" Ash responded.
"Are you sure?" Lillie pressed again.
"100 Percent."
Lillie pulled out her phone and showed Ash the destruction.
"You think Poipole did this?" Ash questioned.
"I didn't say that." Lillie said agitated.
"Lillie. The thing can't even fly straight for 3 second let alone wreck a school?" Ash defend the young being.
Lillie followed that up with a sigh.
"Why don't you get the Kahuna to look into it?" Ash questioned with a smirk.
"Is just like Poipole. Hau can barely focus on one thing for more than 3 seconds." Lillie roasted the Kahuna of Melemele.
Ash sweat dropped.
Elsewhere…
Dulse was asleep as Zossie barged in to the motel room with the male being woken up in a startle.
"Jesus! Do you have to make so much noise!?" Dulse growled.
"Sorry…" Zossie apologised with an embarrassed look.
She shook off the look and turned to a more serious one.
"Dulse! The humans here know about our existence!" Zossie explained.
Dulse caught interest now.
"Go on…"
"Some kid talked spacemen people! What if that was us?!" Zossie panicked.
"Remain calm." Dulse said harshly.
"But…"
"I said remain calm!" Dulse yelled with a raised tone.
Zossie stepped back and nodded.
"Look. I was thinking we strike tomorrow night. Get all information we can on the girl and then take her before going after her lover." Dulse explained.
Zossie was still hurt from him raising his voice but she understood.
"Yes Dulse." She muttered as she went to her bed to get some sleep.
Dulse scratched his head.
The way she was treating this mission is going to end up with getting killed just like her mo-
Dulse realised what he was thinking and shook it off.
He knew that was wrong of him and groaned as he went to go get some water to drink.
(Later in the early hours of the morning.)
Who was that girl that got killed?
Serves her right!
She had no common sense! Everyone knows not to trust a Hypno.
Glad she is dead!
A Drifloon appeared in the middle of the school hallway and turned to a classroom.
Next to the Sinnoh pokemon was a bright white light.
… There …
(The next day…)
Lillie left extra early today as she was still on edge about yesterday.
Little did she know… Today was going to push her beyond the edge and on to the tip of the blade.
She wanted to get there early so she could see if anything fishy was about.
And what she found in her classroom was horrifying.
Like yesterday, the desks and chairs were in a pile but the windows were smashed, chalk had been thrown at the whiteboard as you could see the impact it left, computers were on the ground.
She quick let out Ninetales for her own safety.
"Tales?" She said confused.
"What the fuck…" She muttered creepily, clinging on to the doorway.
On her desk was an old piece of paper.
She didn't like that…
She wanted the school to burn so she didn't have to pick up that paper.
But she went ahead.
Lillie's soft eyes scanned the paper and figured out it was a cut out of a yearbook.
"Mia Lo'he…" Lillie muttered as the tower of desks and chairs fell.
She screamed in shock and panted away once realising it was just the tower.
But she soon realised who this girl was.
The one that was killed by Pokemon and whose sprite that haunts the school… Apparently.
She was short and had a bad complexity. She had messy ginger hair and held a Bunaery doll in one hand and a red ball in the other.
Lillie didn't believe in ghosts but…
She ran out the room with Ninetales following.
Hours later, both Ash and Hau were at the school examining the mess.
"Well, from what the principle said, this is Mia's last classroom before her death, but ghosts aren't real?" Ash explained.
"Yeah well, 3 years ago I would have never expected extra dimensional creatures to exist as well!" Lillie protested.
"Why don't we go on an adventure tonight? For good old times!" Hau suggested.
"What do you mean?" Lillie questioned, not liking the tone of Hau.
"We go to the school tonight and see if anything spooky happens!" Hau suggested.
Ash shrugged his shoulders, but Lillie wasn't sure.
"I'll have Decidueye out at all times, don't worry." Ash reassured to the blonde. "Besides, it's probably just a bunch of ghost type pokemon having some fun."
Lillie had to teach in an alternate class for the rest of the day.
Zossie was not present today at the school for some unknown reason…
The hours of the day ticked by as the plan was to meet Hau outside the school at midnight.
And so, they did.
Ash and Lillie parked in a nearby car park and walked to the front with Hau standing outside.
"Took you long enough!" Hau called out with some confidence.
"You seem confident?" Ash questioned.
"I am not scared of no ghosts." Hau told them both as they faced the school which was covered in a blanket of darkness. "Though I won't lie, schools at night are big no for me so yeh…"
The three former traveling partners walked into the place as all seemed normal.
Hau had Umbreon out while Ash had Decidueye.
"You have that key?" Ash asked as Lillie pulled out a key and unlocked the doors.
They entered and shut them soon after.
Moments later outside, Dulse and Zossie walked around the corner of the entrance and now stood out front of the school.
They were both in their outfits.
"What a waste of time." Dulse criticised the school as they walked towards the door.
Dulse was about to break into the school when he was stopped by Zossie.
"Wait. There people just here. I don't know if it's safe to go this way. I think there is a way in around the back!" Zossie claimed as she scanned the heatwave signature on the door hands.
"Fine. Your call. You know this place, lead the way." Dulse said to the ginger.
Ash was in the front with a flashlight with Lillie gripping on to his hand.
Nothing out of the ordinary yet.
"Ok. From all the horror movies I have seen, never ever go near the ghost. You want it to come to you!" Hau explained.
"Except this is real life." Ash said quickly shutting down Hau.
Lillie stepped forwards and felt a chill down her spine.
"Did you guys feel that?" Lillie questioned.
"Feel what?"
Lillie gulped as they continued to search.
They were passing by the lockers as one flung open with a loud slam as Hau screamed in complete fright.
Ash smirked while Lillie sweat dropped.
"You heard… Nothing… Wh-what's that?" Hau muttered as he pointed down the hallway.
A red ball was bouncing up and down as it slowly concluded to a roll.
"Ok, well that isn't terrifying at all." Hau stated.
"You just screamed like a little girl." Ash quickly responded.
"It opened because of the wind alright. Someone is down there. Rule number two of all horror films - "
"Hau shut up!" Lillie panicked as she pulled out the photo she found today. "That ball! THAT BALL!"
The ball began to melt away into what appeared like blood as a figure merged out of it.
Decidueye and Umbreon got into a defensive stance, ready to fight if need be.
However, they both soon realised the figure towered them.
It grew a demonic like face and a blood chilling screech as it flew towards them.
"MOVE!" Ash yelled as the five ran for it.
They rushed down the hallway that seemed to keep going and going as if it never ended.
Lillie pulled out the master key and opened the nearest room with the five entering. She slammed it shut as the demon like being slammed into the wall and make a splat all over it.
Lillie slid down the door as they all panted.
"Ok…. What was that." Ash questioned.
"Still a ghost type pokemon?" Hau said smartly.
Suddenly, horrifying Orchestral like music began to play as a blue glow appeared behind them all.
They turned around to see the radio turned on as a white sheet hovered over a desk.
Hau, Lillie, Umbreon and Decidueye held on to each other and screamed as the music got intense.
"GHOST!" Lillie screamed.
"DON'T TAKE MY SOUL!?" Hau cried.
"UMBR!"
"DECIY!"
But Ash noticed something off about this ghost…
He walked over and pulled the sheet off to reveal Poipole upside down with his arms and legs crossed and his eyes illuminating. He was spinning around
"Poi-zzt!" he cried with a cheeky smirk.
"You think you are real funny now, don't you?" Ash questioned. "Also, when did you get out of your pokeball?"
"P-ztt!"
However, the radio that played Poipole's prank music began to change to something terrifying…
Come little children, come with me
Safe and happy, you will be
Away from home, now let us run
With Hypno, you'll have so much fun
Oh, little children, please don't cry
Hypno wouldn't hurt a fly
Be free to frolic, be free to play
Come with me to my cave to stay
Oh, little children, please don't squirm
These ropes, I know, will hold you firm
Now look to me, the pendant calls
Back and forth, your eyelids fall
Oh, little children, you cannot leave
For you, your families will grieve
Minds unravelling at the seams
Allowing me to haunt their dreams
Do not wail and do not weep
It's time for you to go to sleep
Little children, you were not clever
Now you'll stay with me forever
"Okay… What the fuck." Ash muttered.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a Hypno appeared.
It stayed dead silent as the radio got louder but more distorted.
Come little children, come with me
Safe and happy, you will be
Away from hoME, now let us run
WiTh Hypno, you'll have sO MuCH fun
Oh, little children, please don't cry
Hypno wouldn't hurt a fly
Be free to frolic, be fREe to play
Come with me to my ca-ve to stay
"Umbreon! Dark pulse!" Hau shouted.
"Shadow ball Decidueye!" Ash yelled.
The two fired the attack but the Hypno disappeared as the radio stopped.
"Let's get out of here!" Lillie yelled as Ash kicked the door open to find the blood splatter on the wall.
"Gross…" Ash muttered as they headed out.
Elsewhere, a Janitor was cleaning the hallways while whistling to himself.
He suddenly felt a sharp needle be injected into his neck.
He wasn't a small man, so he gave a struggle before being thrown at the wall by Dulse.
Before passing out, he got a quick glimpse of his attackers.
"He's out. This is the room?" Dulse questioned Zossie who nodded.
He sent out Toxicroak.
"Stay on guard." Dulse told his partner.
"Cro…" Toxicroak croaked.
Dulse went to the room and kicked the door open, ripping the hinges off the top.
They entered as Zossie closed it behind them as best as she could.
He found a laptop on the desk.
He was a class B hacker from his training, so this should be no issue getting into.
Zossie worked on the files that were stored away in the cabinet.
"I SWEAR WE ARE GOING AROUND IN CIRCLES!" Hau yelled.
"It's the ghost's playing tricks on us!" Lillie yelled back.
"Calm down! Both of you!" Ash shouted louder than them both. "We need to stay calm and composed. Lillie, you said you felt a chill before, right?"
Lillie nodded.
"I need Ninetales out. I have an idea." Ash explained as the Alolan form appeared.
They continued to walk down the never-ending hallway.
Lillie soon felt the chill down her spine.
"NOW!"
"Ninetales! Blizzard!" Ash shouted.
Lillie threw herself to the ground as Ninetales blasted where her trainer was with the wave of frozen wind, freezing that area completely.
Inside the ice was a Gengar and two haunters.
"Bingo." Ash announced. "Found your ghosts. They are known for scaring innocents for there own entertainment which involve creating illusions like for example: A ball that melted away to blood, a monster coming out of the ball and random hypno appearing."
The ice began to shatter as the three broke out and began to laugh.
"Spirit shackle Decidueye!" Ash shouted.
Gengar fired a shadow ball at them but the two cancelled each other out.
"Shadow ball Umbreon!"
Umbreon made a shadow ball of his own and fired it at the haunters, knocking them both out.
Decidueye flew at Gengar and slashed him with a leaf blade with countering with a shadow punch.
The two slid along the hallway as Gengar spewed up a sludge bomb.
Decidueye used protect as the sludge covered the shield.
The two were about to attack again but were stopped by a white light.
They all turned to the source of the light and it was… Mia Lo'he.
She had a Drifloon next to her wrapped around her wrist.
Oh… You poor children… Lost and forever wandering?"
Gengar gave a shocked look as the ghost of the girl ran into a nearby room.
Ash was the first to run in as they were now in Lillie's room.
"Mia! Stop this! You are hurt! We get it!"
The girl smiled as the Drifloon looked around.
"Please! You have to calm down and go to rest!" Lillie shouted as they boxed her in.
Little did they know, Lillie kept spare Pokeball's above her desk as the ghost knocked back on the wall and caused one to fall, sucking up the ghost in seconds.
Everyone including the wild Gengar stood shocked as the click signalled to the capture.
Lillie walked over and picked up the ball, throwing it to reveal a Zorua.
The dark type from the Unova region gave a smug look.
"So, the pranks and damaged were done by the Gengar and Haunters and the sighting of Mia was Zorua playing a tricked." Ash concluded.
Zorua tried to run away but was recalled by Lillie from the Pokeball.
"Well, I guess he is mine for now then."
Gengar tried to sneak off but Decidueye saw this and fired a arrow into his back.
Ash pulled out a dusk ball and threw it at the Gengar that was causing trouble.
And soon signalled a successful capture.
"You two do realised we came here to stop and figure out this and you went and caught the two that was behind it now are going to live you." Hau claimed as Lillie gave a flustered look.
"I've always wanted a Gengar. Used to have a Haunter but some things happened." Ash claimed.
The reached outside as everything seemed normal.
"Well, I am going to hit the hay! I'll see you guys tomorrow maybe?" Hau said as he and Umbreon walked off.
The young couple headed home with their two new 'friends.'
Back at the office in the school, Zossie had the two physical files out on Lillie Aether and Ash Ketchum.
Dulse stole the files by making a copy of them and soon snapping the laptop.
"Let's go." Dulse said as he left the room first to find something out of this world.
A girl see through with a Drifloon next to her was standing in their way out.
"Hello…"
Zossie stumbled outside to see the being.
Dulse raised an eyebrow.
"You shouldn't be here. My two friends are gone… I have no friends now. Will you be my friends?"
Zossie gave a frightened look while Dulse kept a straight one.
"Not going to say yes? What a shame… You poor souls…"
The see through being went distorted like as a black hole appeared on her chest with arms reaching out. Her eyes glowed red with a long black and white tongue slithering out of her mouth.
The real ghost was about to fly forward but felt something she hadn't felt in a long time.
Pain.
Two glowing sharp objects stabbed through her chest.
"Croak…" Toxicroak laughed.
Dulse walked forwards.
He did the greeting Zossie taught him and soon got down on one knee.
"You think I am afraid of you?" Dulse mumbled with a dead look in his eyes.
The ghost of Mia gagged in pain.
"Wonder how this is happening? Toxicroak's ability allows him to never ever fail to hit his target."
Mia was in tears as the Drifloon left her ghost for the first time in 30 years.
Dulse smirked.
"Boo."
Mia screamed as Toxicroak shredded the ghost apart with her body fading white and finally passing over to the next.
Zossie was in shock.
"Remain calm and let's go. We have big plans."
Author's note: Spoop chapter today. Based around the school one sort of but also that episode of Generations with Eterna forest.
And we did it. 1000 gang all round in reviews, Follow and now fav's too.
You are all my fav's
So yes, Ash has a Gengar and Lillie now has a Zorua.
If you can guess where the desk and chair towering reference is from, you are a super cool person.
And yeh, gunna pick up soon.
But yo.
Aegislash in Pokken? Hell yes.
QUESTIONS:
I think the scene where Poipole wore the Christmas hat was actually really cute and downright hilarious.
That was the aim :D
so ALL THE MEMBERS OF UB RECKON SQUAD ARE INTRODUCED
What?
So, Are the Frontier Brains ever gonna show up?
Well, Anabel already has despite not being one technically. It's a maybe so not saying yes but not saying no.
Do you believe the little girl is the seventh quest? She's been with a Driftblim who kidnaps children and may have the connection with the Hypno in the classroom.
;)
Will there be some more fluff between Lillie and Ash?
Yeh, that will REALLY pick up soonish. You'll see why.
A Pokémon centered chapter?
Could be a good little filler chapter.
Will we be seeing an orange, purple, and white Zygarde Core (Z3, Z4, and Z5) later on, since there are five of them in the games?
No because they don't exist. And technically in game, they are all red.
over 2,300 reviews? damn this story is good if you have this many reviews
I mean, I think it's pretty cool.
What was your team for ultra moon
Incineroar, A-Raichu, Ribombee, Dusk Lycanroc, Mimikyu and the GOAT himself, Necrozma cuz after hearing that theme and beating that monster, I could not think of anything that could be the 6th member other than the GOAT.
Will all the legendary Pokemon that Ash helped before show up and help or advise him somehow?
I won't say what will happen (Cuz Spoilers duh) but yes, previous legends will reappear EVENTUALLY.
Will you have specefic dates on when u will upload new chapters
Look at my profile and it will give you your answer.
Is Ash is really that butt hurt by Pikachu that he didn't even bother get either another Pikachu or any other Electric type Pokémon that matter? Getting another Pikachu is one thing, but not other any other Electric types is stupid.
Or maybe cause I based his team in the first half with some twists around my team from Pokemon Sun and I didn't use any electric types.
What about giving Mega Evolution stones to Ash?
Mega Gengar incoming.
What about the whole Hau x Lana thing?
Will be touched on soon but I'll give a small hint: Still alive.
I gotta ask, why kill off Hala? For the story or something else?
Story. I have nothing against Hala, I really like the old man. Hau was always going to be Kahuna when the second half started but had to figure a way to get Hala out and I saw someone suggested in a chapter or two earlier, will there be any deaths. Went out a hero, fighting for his region and the island he loves.
Do you plan on making the next generation of pokemon into another story, or keep it in this story, but tie it together.
Dunno. I think I will take a (Deserved) break for a little bit once done and will have to see. Who knows what Gen 8 might offer that I can link around.
Can you please update
I was going to delete this but then it would make the reviewer above (Which thank you btw) look awkward.
SO as always, review, suggest or PM me. Spectre out!
