BGM: Scanea Felix (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)
"Wow! This place looks amazing!" Hanabi exclaimed, already amazed by the sheer size of the Citadel as she immediately took off.
"Very interesting… I don't know why we didn't come here sooner." Tsunade said.
"I think it was because of your health after what happened the last time the Heroes of Light were at our world." Shizune said.
Tsunade sighed. "Yeah… I know…"
As everyone dispersed, Peach grabbed a hold of Kai. "Hey you!"
"Oh… Peach… what's up…?" She asked.
Peach giggled. "While you were busy saving Hinata's adorable sister, I was making this for you!" She said, pulling out a tiara.
"You…made this…?"
"Well, not really, I had Captain Toad help me make it."
"I see… but what's the occasion?"
Peach smiled innocently. "It's for you when you become ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom."
Ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Kai stiffened at the thought of it and took it. "Th-thanks…"
"No problem!" Peach smiled, unaware of them being watched by Xion, Vanitas and Gajeel. "Hey, are you feeling okay? You look a little pale and a little tired."
"No… I'm fine…" She said, putting the tiara in her pocket. "Thank you…" She said and walked away.
"Are you… sure you're okay?"
Kai looked at her, forcing a smile. "Yeah… I'm totally fine…" She said and walked off.
"…Oh… okay then…" Peach looked on as she walked away.
"So that's why she was acting a little uncharacteristic there…" Gajeel muttered. "That's obviously a tacky tiara! I'd be a little miffed myself."
Vanitas elbowed him. "No… not even close."
"It has to do with her ruling the Mushroom Kingdom." Xion sighed.
"…That was my second guess." Gajeel said. "Hmm, weird… before we saved you guys, she was all thrilled to be Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, hell, she was really happy to be a nurse too."
"I guess reality finally kicked in." Xion said with a sigh.
"Hmm… I say we do something to cheer her up." Vanitas rubbed his chin. "Now... how do we cheer our daughter up over this predicament?"
"Good question…" Gajeel muttered.
"She's not your daughter." Xion said.
"I know, but doesn't mean I'm concerned about Kai's well being." He said. "That and the whole 'none of your business' caught me by surprise." He said and walked off.
With Rose…
Rose walked around the Nature Reserve, her hands behind her back with a smile as she was looking at the Pokemon and other animals minding their business… and seeing Buckbeak chasing Grif.
"HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW YOU NEEDED TO BOOOOW?!" Grif yelled, running off.
"You pissed it off, numnut!" Sarge's voice called out to him.
"OH SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
"WHAT WAS THAT?!"
Grif sighed in annoyance as he ran. "Shut the fuck up, SIR."
"That's more like it!"
Rose shrugged it off and went on her merry way as she came across a small pond and looked at her reflection with a smile… and then she was joined by a little cute pink stuffed toy… or was it a stuffed toy? "Hmm?"
She looked at the little creature as it was minding its business, drinking out of the water. What is that Pokemon…? She thought and slowly brought out her Pokedex to examine the creature.
Stufful: The Flailing Pokemon. Despite its adorable appearance, when it gets angry and flails about, its arms and legs could knock a pro wrestler sprawling.
"Interesting…" She said, and then saw another entry and curiously touched it.
A touch from anyone except a known friend sends it into a surging frenzy. It's an incredibly dangerous Pokemon.
"But it's so adorable…" Rose said as she looked back at the Stufful… as it disappeared as it hid behind a bush, obviously spooked from the Pokedex. "No no no wait, come back!" She said and gingerly walked over towards it. "It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you." She said gently.
"Stuff…" Stufful quietly said and looked at Rose as she knelt down.
"There's no need to be afraid." She smiled. "Everything's going to be alright." She said, putting her hand out towards it.
"Stufful…" Stufful carefully walked over towards her and then carefully sniffed her hand and then went around her entire body, sniffing everywhere as its fur tickled Rose as she tried not to laugh as to try and not to spook the little thing.
Stufful kept examining her as it then went back to her hand… and tried to climb up her arm to sniff her face… only for it to slip as its eyes widened and grabbed on to Rose's arm… and flailed its feet quite adorably as it tried to stay on… but unfortunately, its feet slammed right into Rose's chest as she cried out in pain and was sent crashing to the ground a few feet.
"Ow…" Rose groaned.
"Stuff…" Stufful walked over to Rose and gently sniffed her cheek before going to the other side… and then sniffing her hair before crawling on it and sniffing her entire face as Rose tried to open her eyes.
Problem was… Stufful was kiiinda stepping on her eyes.
"Stuff. Stuff." Stufful continued to examine Rose and then licked her cheek before hopping off. "Stufful!"
Rose painfully rolled over to look at Stufful. "You're cute…" She smiled and gently petted its head.
Unfortunately it freaked out and swatted her face… which caused her to roll several feet and knocking her out as she slammed into a tree.
"Stuff!" Stufful panicked, as it was getting used to Rose and quickly ran over to check on her before getting an idea as it took off.
A few minutes later…
"Stufful!" Stufful admired its work as it managed to pull leaves from a bush and covered Rose's entire body excluding her face, as it looked like Stufful just made her a homemade blanket for her. "Stuff…" Stufful examined her and then had another idea as it took off to a flower bed and began pulling off sunflowers and spring blue flowers as a few Sunflora and Roserade curiously looked over to see what it was doing.
Once Stufful was done, it moved over to Rose's head, crawled under her head and used its back legs to lift it up and pulled the flower pillow towards her before crawling back and then admired its work as it jumped on Rose's chest, curiously looking at Rose's peaceful face and laying down, continuing to look at her, hoping it didn't do too much damage to her before falling asleep, attempting to spread its arms out to cuddle her.
Meanwhile…
"Ah, nothing like a day of fishing!" Happy grinned as he was at the lake with the Exceeds.
"I've never been fond of fishing… but it's actually quite relaxing." Carla said.
"It also requires patience." Lily said.
"Heh, I'm probably going to capture more fish than you all." Lector cockily said.
"Fro thinks so too!"
Happy felt a bite. "Oh!" He grinned and then reeled it in. "Come to daddy!" He said and then pulled up…
"Wishi…?"
"…Aww, it's not even worth eating." Lector said, looking at the Wishiwashi.
"I know… it looks pathetic." Happy said. "Not worth it!" He said, looking at the sad face the Pokemon is giving him. "Not. Worth. it! Honestly, a Magikarp is more worth it!" He tossed it back into the water.
"Wishi…" Wishiwashi pouted… before it got a little bit… too angry. "Wishi… WISHI!"
Up on the surface…
"Hmm…" Carla looked from afar.
"What's wrong?" Lily asked.
"I'm looking at that Gyarados over there." She said. "Does it look a little… off to you?"
"What do you mean?" Lector asked.
"Usually, Gyarados are very fierce Pokemon and easy to anger… and yet… that one over there seems a little nervous."
"Maybe it's a scaredy cat!" Frosch said.
"That can't be right…" Lily said as he stood up and put his fishing pole down… and then he transformed, unsheathing his sword. "We have trouble." He said as Carla stood up and went into her human form.
"Guys, it's just a Gyarados that's probably scared of his own shadow! There's no need to be afraid!" Happy said, seeing the waves picking up.
"Um… I don't like those waves." Lector said as they slowly backed up, excluding Happy as his fishing pole tugged.
"Oh! Oh! I got a bite!" He said and then reeled in… a very huge monster as he jawdropped.
"WISHI!"
BGM: Encounter! Wild Pokemon (Pokemon Sun and Moon)
"OH. MY. STARS." Happy said. "THAT IS ONE HUGE FISH!" He yelled and pulled out a fork and knife. "TIME TO CHOW DOWN!" He yelled, but the huge Wishiwashi wasn't going to take it as it jumped and slammed its huge tail, hitting Happy. "WAAAAAAH!" He yelled and slammed into a tree.
"HAPPY!" Carla screamed.
"What's going on?!" Natsu ran in. "I heard Happy screaming!"
"THAT THING TOOK DOWN HAPPY WITH ONE ATTACK!" Lector yelled, as Natsu watched Lily flying towards and slashing, but the Wishiwashi… got angrier from the attack and launched a powerful Hydro Pump that sent him crashing to a tree… and landing on Happy.
"HEY!" Natsu yelled as the monster looked at him. "NO ONE DOES THAT TO HAPPY AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!" He said, his fists bursting into flame, then jumping over. "FIRE DRAGON'S… IRON FIST!"
The monstrous Wishiwashi was hit by the fiery fist… but then it grabbed Natsu by the arm with its mouth and took him for a little joy ride underwater.
"NATSU!" Carla yelled.
"Blub! Blub! Blub!" Natsu growled and kept fire punching it until the monster had enough and swam to the surface, breaching and then letting go of Natsu. "ALRIGHT, YOU ASKED FOR IT. FIRE DRAGON'S ROOOOOAR!"
"WISHIIIII!"
It used another Hydro Pump to counter it… and the flames were quickly doused as Natsu's eyes widened in surprise as he was drenched… but it wasn't done yet as it used Aqua Tail to finish the job as Natsu landed on top of Lily and Happy, knocking them both out as Frosh, Lector and Carla screamed and then took off, dragging the three of them away.
End BGM
The monster Wishiwashi roared as it landed in the water… and then it broke apart as the many Wishiwashi disappeared, as there was only one Wishiwashi remaining.
"Wishi!" Wishiwashi cried happily and happily swam off.
With Maria Jr…
"So many interesting new Pokemon here." She said, seeing a Ninetales and Vulpix interact with their Alolan counterparts, all of them very curious.
She proceeded to walk around and spotted a knocked out Chatot on the ground. "What the…?!" She wondered and quickly walked over to it, kneeling down.
"Cha…tot…"
"What in the world is going on…?" She wondered as she walked around, seeing an injured Chimecho, Vibrava, Pichu, Riolu, Vespiquen, Nidoking, Girafarig and a Duckett. "Who's attacking all of these Pokemon?!"
She then heard something as she quickly ran over to investigate and hid behind a tree, seeing a Poliwrath, Granbull and Ambipom taking on a single Pokemon… and they were pretty looking beat up… but the creature they were going against wasn't looking really hot either.
"Wrath…"
"Pom… POM!"
"Bull…"
"Out… out… OUT OF MY WAY!"
That thing can talk…? Maria Jr. thought and curiously looked on as the creature proceeded to use Take Down on them before using X-Scissor to knock them out. Oh my god…
The creature growled and kept on going, limping along the way.
I'm incredibly stupid for doing this… but this has to stop. She thought and quickly revealed herself. "Hey!"
The creature turned around, glaring at her.
"Why did you attack these Pokemon?" She demanded as the creature continued to glare at her… before it collapsed as she quickly walked over towards it. What is this thing… is this some kind of Pokemon or… some chimera? She wondered.
A little bit later…
The creature stirred… and feeling something as it looked to see bandages on its legs and then felt something on its body as it turned to see Maria Jr. putting a wash cloth on a huge bruise she found and then she saw that it was awake. "Oh!"
"Get away from me… human!" It demanded as it got up.
So it can talk after all… Maria Jr. thought.
"Nngh…!" The creature groaned as it fell, but Maria Jr. caught it. "Don't… touch me!"
"Why did you attack these Pokemon?"
"…I have nothing to say on that matter."
"But why did you?"
"…I was a bit in a frenzy ever since I was freed by this… nngh… foundation that cyrogenetically froze me. I had to flee… and then I wound up here and… got in a huge rampage and took out my anger on all of those Pokemon…"
"Who would cyrogenetically freeze you?"
"I don't want to talk about it…"
"Okay… so, what's your name?"
"My name… it's all fuzzy… but I think it's called… Type: Null."
"Type: Null?" She tilted her head and gave it a friendly smile. "How about if I just called you Null?"
"I'm not sure how I feel about that. Not to mention that a human is calling me that."
"Still… I want to help you get stronger and destroy this… whatever foundation it is that harmed you."
"And why should I trust a human?"
"I think you can trust an angel." She said, backing up and extending her wings. "I lost my humanity long ago anyway."
"I trusted her." A voice said as they turned to see the Red Genesect.
"Oh, Genesect!"
"Believe me, I had a hard time trusting humanity myself until she showed me care after they defeated a CPU by the name of Rei. Honestly, even I find it disturbing that someone can just cyrogenetically freeze Pokemon. Sure, there's some evil humans out there…" He turned to Maria Jr. "But there are a lot who aren't."
Null looked at the Red Genesect and then looked at Maria Jr. "How did you lose your humanity?"
"…A dragon ended my life… but I was revived as an angel." She then looked at him. "Null… I promise you, I'll treat you with love and care like I do with all the other Pokemon." Maria Jr. said.
Null thought long and hard about this and sighed deeply. "I suppose I can give humanity… another chance."
"Thank you." Maria Jr. smiled and hugged him.
"Now who in the world would freeze a Pokemon like that…? It's barbaric if you ask me." Red Genesect muttered.
Back with Rose…
"Mmm…" Rose groaned as she woke up to see Stufful. "Oh…!"
"Stuff…?" Stufful woke up and looked at Rose with a smile. "Stufful!"
Rose giggled and gently petted it, before realizing what she's doing and pulled away… but Stufful quickly grabbed her arm and pulled it back, nuzzling it affectionately. "Stuff!"
"You… actually like me. You trust me, don't you?"
"Stuff!" Stufful replied.
Rose sat back up and wiped the leaves off of her and knelt down, spreading her arms out as Stufful happily jumped in and she hugged it, accidentally squishing Stufful too hard. "STUUUUFF!" Stufful cried, flailing around to breathe.
"Oh, sorry." She said and released her grip to more of a gentle hug.
"Stuff!" Stufful smiled and nuzzled her neck before licking it.
"Come on, I have a few Pokemon friends I want you to meet." She said and took off as Stufful managed to turn around from the grip and smiled, leaning in to her chest with a smile.
Meanwhile, with Reiji…
"Almost... there..." Reiji said.
"What are ya makin'?" Yui asked.
"Making a cybernetic suit, I'm just trying to figure out the features..."
Sabrina walked by to grab herself another wrench as there was some oil on her cheek, then she turned to the suit. "Is that the Cybernetic suit from Smash?"
"Yeah... I'm just trying to put the finishing touches... hmm, what to put for the features..."
The cybernetic suit is exactly like the Smash Bros version as the main color is light blue and the glowing parts are red while the suit itself is white and the metal is still silver, the symbol is still the Smash symbol, only with two swords impaling it.
"Aunt Sabrina, you're a little dirty!" Yui giggled.
"Hmm?" Sabrina looked in the mirror. "Oh, I forgot that was there."
"Let me guess, working on a machine and some oil dropped on you?" Reiji asked.
"Well, I was actually getting a Warthog fixed up since Caboose crashed it, I guess some oil landed on my cheek and I was too busy to even notice."
"...How did Caboose crash it?" Yui wondered.
Flashback...
Caboose was walking around, minding his own business, when he suddenly sneezed. And that caused a Warthog behind him to explode for some reason, not that Caboose noticed.
Present...
"Trust me, you don't want to know."
"Hey, how about you take a break from that and we'll figure out the rest?" Nitori asked as she walked over.
"Hmm, I was planning on doing that. I was going to take Hikari out to Pinna Park anyway."
"Then go have fun and we'll figure out the rest!"
"Okay." He nodded and walked out of the mechanic shop. "Hey Hikari!"
"What does he have so far?" Sabrina asked.
"Let's see..." Nitori saw a piece of paper. "Increased strength and durability... that's all he had?"
"I guess he wanted it to be epic." Yui said.
"Well, we have a video game expert here!" Nitori grinned. "So this is going to be extremely epic!"
Sabrina sweatdropped. "Let's not go overboard..."
"Says the lady who creamed me in Smash with Ryu... and let's not forget all the other crazy stuff that you did in the past."
"...Point taken. So..." She looked at the piece of paper. "What if..."
With Hikari and Reiji...
BGM: Pinna Park (Super Mario Sunshine)
"WAHOOO!" Hikari screamed as they were at the pirate ships.
"WHOOOOOA!" Reiji yelled. "WHO DESIGNED THESE THINGS?!"
They soon got off of the pirate ships, as Hikari was smiling... while Reiji looked dizzy. "Agh... now I know how Yosuke feels..."
"Alright, where to next?"
"How about the Ferris Wheel?"
"Sounds like a plan!"
Waaaaaay later...
"This was fun!" Hikari smiled. "I had a blast!" She said and then kissed him. "Thanks..."
"Anytime." He smiled and then his phone buzzed as he looked at his phone with a text from Buru.
"Hey, Yui wanted me to tell you that the suit's ready."
Hikari read it. "Suit? What suit?"
Reiji grinned. "Heheh, why don't you come with me to the mechanic shop?"
End BGM
At the mechanic shop...
"Introducing... the brand new cybernetic suit!" Nitori said. "Sabrina would be here right now, but she went to take a shower and is currently hanging out with her husband, so I'm filling in for her... and also Yui since she wanted to go hang out with her parents."
"So, what'd you put in?"
"Sabrina was the one responsible for adding stuff... and we kinda went overboard since we kept suggesting ideas." She sweatdropped. "Anyway, it has increased strength, durability and speed! But that's not all! It has enhanced reflexes! There are arm plates on the suit which has a holographic display which show the suit's current status and a hand map of the area that the user is in and that is made as they travel along using technological means. Also, the boots on the suit have some extra features... by yours truly! When in water, flippers will extend out for better swimming and magnetic bottoms to run on walls that are magnetic! It's also powered by Latent Magical Energies in a certain someone's body which due to immortality, it'll never run out and making it self sufficient immune to EMPs due to this. It also has enough power on its own to run for twelve hours.. and it's light weight if it somehow manages to run out of power. If it's damaged, it has a self repair function and finally, It also has an attachment for storing certain swords and its magnetically attached so it won't be able to removed until they are grabbed by the hilts!"
"And uh... who is this for?" Hikari asked.
Nitori grinned. "You, of course! Reiji's been busy making this for a long time!"
Hikari's eyes widened and looked at Reiji. "You... made this for me?"
"Of course! Try it on."
Hikari nodded and then got in the suit, as they saw it resizing itself to fit her... and then, she quickly tried it out and grinned. "This is awesome!" She grinned, looking in a mirror. "...Hold on, something's missing..."
"What is?" Reiji asked.
"...Get Lucy."
Later...
"Open! Gate of the crab! Cancer!"
"You need a haircut, baby?"
"Yeah, I want to change my hair." Hikari said. "I actually drew it out." She gave him a piece of paper.
"Very well, baby!" Cancer said and then went right to work in less than two seconds. "All done, baby!"
Half of her hair is now dyed red as its the opposite color of her red eye and it is in a braided tail in the back twirled together (looking something similar to a candy cane for example) ending with a one of her Mother's Paper charms tying the ends together as it's halfway around the back.
"Sweet!" Hikari grinned.
"Hold it!" Virgo appeared out of nowhere. "She's not done yet!"
"Virgo?!" Lucy exclaimed in surprise.
"One final touch." Virgo said, pulling out eye liner and lipstick and applied it to her as Hikari looked to see that she has blue eye liner and red lipstick. "There, now she's complete." She said and then disappeared.
"I love it!" Hikari grinned and turned around. "What do you think?"
Reiji jawdropped. "Hubba hubba..." He could only say as Nitori playfully elbowed him. "You look cute!"
Hikari giggled. "Thanks... so, shall we go?"
"Yeah." Reiji nodded as the two walked away.
"Mission accomplished." Nitori chuckled and walked out with Lucy as Cancer disappeared.
With Worldwalker…
"Ya know, you worked so hard lately that you need some time off."
"Really, you think so?" Maria asked. "What makes you say that?"
"Well…" Worldwalker glanced around, seeing all the various things that Maria made. "The room kinda looks like the inside of a currently being used storage unit at this point."
Maria blushed. "Whoops… my bad." She said.
"Nah, it's fine." He chuckled. "You need some fresh air anyway."
"Thanks." She said, hugging him before taking off.
Worldwalker chuckled. "I've created a monster… not like it's a bad thing or anything." He said and looked at the blueprint of a Keyblade. "Now… what to do with this End All Be All Keyblade?" He wondered and then thought of something. "Alpha Keyblade… no… Beta Keyblade, nah… Omega Keyblade…"
His eyes widened with a huge smile. "Omega… OMEGA… OMEGA!" He yelled. "EUREKA! I FINALLY HAVE IT!" He yelled and quickly went right to work on it. "Oh, Maria's gonna flip when she sees what I just thought of!"
At the pool…
"Hehehe… this is gonna be fun." Maria smirked as she took a running start and dove right into the pool as she swam around… right when Hikari walked in.
Might as well try it out. She thought, still wearing the Cybernetic suit and jumped in, activating it, as the flippers activated. Sweet! She thought and swam around. This is awesome!
As she was swimming around with her eyes closed, she wasn't really paying attention to where she was going and slammed into someone, causing her to yelp... well, it was a muffled yelp since she was in the water, but you know know what I mean.
She swam up to get some air and then rubbed her head. "Ow..." She groaned and realized who she slammed into. "Oh! Maria, I didn't see you there!"
Maria shook it off. "Oh, that was you? I was wondering who it was." She said.
"Sorry about that."
"It's fine." She chuckled.
"So, I heard you're busy with all this blacksmith stuff you're doing with dad."
"Yeah." Maria nodded. "I'm making tons of new things, sharpening tools and what not. In fact, he gave me some time off because I was working so hard."
"What'd you just finish?"
"Well..."
Somewhere in the Citadel...
"Ow..." Deadpool groaned.
"Maybe next time you'll think twice before groping me." Sakuya said and walked away.
"I told you it was a bad idea." Reimu told him.
"Oh... shut up..." Deadpool groaned. "Seriously though... did her knives get sharper or am I just going crazy...?"
Back with the two...
Hikari chuckled. "Well, I'm sure Sakuya liked that."
"Yeah. she was thrilled." Maria nodded.
"I bet." Hikari nodded. "So... princess of Sarasaland, huh?"
"Yeah... a beefed up princess and a Blacksmith. Well, I'm gonna be busy for a long time..."
Hikari laughed. "I bet! Still, have you ever dreamed of being a princess?"
"Not really, I didn't even think about it much... but when things started getting serious with me and Paolo, not to mention I'm now engaged with him. It then dawned on me that I'm going to marry a prince of Sarasaland... and not just any prince, but the son of Luigi and Daisy. I realized that I'm going to rule an entire kingdom."
"You can thank our bad future for that... but look on the bright side, at least it's a place you're familiar with."
"True." Maria nodded. "And I have my friends to support me. My daughter is thrilled that we'll be living in a castle after we beat Unicron."
"Daughter?" Hikari tilted her head. "...Oh that's right, you adopted Peashy."
"Yeah."
Hikari smiled. "You know, we should hang out more, including Hina and Kai. Speaking of which, where are they?"
"Yeah, you're right. As for Hina and Kai... I have no idea. I know Hina's busy making menu plans for the diner she's planning on building with Souji in the Mushroom Kingdom, and Kai... well, she looked a bit stressed. I asked her what's wrong but she just looked at me weird before making a portal and heading who-knows-where without saying a word. I've been noticing that she's been under a lot of stress lately, but won't even bother telling us about it. Me and Hina are really worried about her... and not just us, Vito, Vanitas and Xion are concerned as well."
"I wonder what's troubling her. Whatever it is, I'm sure we'll make her feel better."
"Yeah..." Maria nodded. "Whenever she's stressed, she turns into an emotional wreck."
"Like when she wanted to give up before Radiant Garden was invaded?"
"Yeah, like that day." Maria nodded.
"Hmm, hope we can make her feel better."
"Here's hoping..." She said, as they were completely unaware that Peach was listening in on the conversation as she entered the pool to swim around before she heard them talking about Kai.
...I wonder... Peach thought as she took off.
"So, changing the subject..." Hikari looked at Maria. "How long can you hold your breath underwater?"
"Five minutes."
"Whoa, so can I!"
"Sweet, I thought I was the only one!"
They both high fived.
"So, want to have a little competition to see who can last longer?" Hikari asked.
"You're on!"
They both went underwater... and five minutes later, Maria was the first to emerge as Hikari emerged within one second of Maria.
"So, who won...?" Maria asked, coughing.
"No idea... I think I was one second before you."
"Hmm... oh well." Maria shrugged as the two of them swam around and talked in the pool for a long time.
With Kai…
BGM: Toad Town (Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)
Kai looked at Peach's Castle as she said nothing and walked forward as she made some friendly waves to some Toads and friendly Koopas and Shy Guys, but she kept walking until she reached the front doors of the castle as she paused for a moment before grabbing the handle of the door, her arm shaking a little as her eyes were shaking as well... then she walked in.
End BGM
BGM: Peach's Castle (Super Mario 64)
Kai walked around the castle, down various hallways, into every single room, into the kitchen where some Toad chefs were working, looked into the backyard, into Peach's bedroom... she walked everywhere until she walked to the balcony where she looked around the kingdom, seeing the residents going about their lives without a care in the world.
Her legs started trembling, her heart raced a little as she dug in her pocket and pulled out a tiara.
"Here! I made this for you when you become ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom!" Peach's voice echoed.
"Ruler... of the Mushroom Kingdom..." She whispered as she put the tiara on her forehead. "Princess... of the... Mush...room... King...dom..."
She looked like she was about to faint as she was about to collapse, but someone caught her. "I gotcha."
"Huh...?" Kai looked over to see her fiance in his arms. "Oh... hey... I didn't even see you..."
"You feeling alright? You looked a little bothered by something."
"I was just... taking a walk..."
"More like you're stressed about something."
Kai sighed as she got back up and looked at the kingdom once again, walking forward until she stopped at the railing, not saying a word.
"Kai? What's wrong?"
BGM: Tears of the Light (Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep)
"Just... everything..."
"What do you mean?"
"Never in my life have I... have I thought I'd rule the Mushroom Kingdom. Never in my life have I thought of being a princess or... queen..."
"That's what's bothering you?"
"No..."
"Then what is?"
"...I'm scared..."
"You are?"
"I don't even know if... if I'm ready to rule the Mushroom Kingdom. Yes, I know it's a very peaceful and calm Kingdom but... I don't know if I'm ready for this! I'm scared to... rule it...!" Tears were starting to run down her cheeks. "I don't... I don't know if I'm ready for... a whole kingdom on my shoulders..." She collapsed on her knees. "I don't think... I'm strong enough..."
Vito walked over and gently knelt down, hugging her. "I'll always be here with you. I'll rule it with you..."
"Aren't you scared too...?"
"I am..."
Kai started crying nonstop. "I'm... really scared..."
"I'm scared too, but we'll rule it together." He said, still hugging her as she positioned herself to rest her head on her chest. "It'll be scary, yes... but I know we'll do it together."
"Just the thought of it... I just... think it's too much, even if it's just a happy-go-lucky kingdom."
"It won't be too much. We'll get through it together." He whispered, stroking her hair. "You'll always be my queen and i'll rule it with you. Besides, you're stronger than you realize."
"I know that... I just... don't want anyone to think I'm this... weak princess... who's always going to be a nervous wreck... including when I'm also going to be a nurse here as well."
"We'll get through this together." He said as Kai looked up and smiled.
"Thanks... I know we will." She said. "I just hope the kingdom thinks I'm ready too..."
End BGM
Behind them...
So this is what's been bugging her. Peach thought before she smiled. I know exactly what she's going through... I went through the exact same thing. She thought, watching them cuddle together. Kai, I know you'll be a great princess, I have total faith in you.
Later…
Kai walked around the Citadel, still looking a little stressed and not paying attention to where she's going and then she slammed into someone. "Oooof! Watch where you're going!" A scruffy voice said as Kai looked up to see Gajeel. "…Oh, it's you."
"Gajeel…" She said.
"Hmm, you look a little better than last time I saw ya."
"I still look like shit, don't I…?"
"A little bit, but not much."
Kai looked away. "I'm sorry…"
"Sorry about what?"
"About… what I said to you from before… about how it was none of your business to worry about me… I probably sounded like a jerk, didn't I..."
"Is this about you being a princess of the Mushroom Kingdom?"
"H-how did you…?!"
"Heard your parents talking when we got back, not to mention I also noticed that tiara Peach gave you."
"Oh… again… I'm sorry, I was just… really tired and stressed and-"
"Ah! Don't worry about it." Gajeel put his hand on her hair and rubbed it. "Kid, you worry too much. You'll do fine, trust me. Besides, you should consider yourself lucky you're ruling the Mushroom Kingdom. It could be a whole lot worse."
"Gajeel…"
Gajeel chuckled. "Believe me… you lucked out when you got engaged to the prince of the Mushroom Kingdom, even if he was from a terribly bad future. You'll do fine, trust me." He said and then walked off.
With Buru…
Buru hummed to herself as she walked around, then spotted Hikari, Hina and Maria. "Hmm?" She turned to them and walked over. "Yo, what'ya talkin' about?" She asked.
"Kai." Hina said quietly.
"What about her?"
Maria looked at her. "Haven't you seen her lately? She looked stressed, she hasn't been getting enough sleep, we're worried about her..."
"We think it has something to do with being a princess." Hina said. "Or queen or... however you want to call it."
"Oh, I thought it was just a sudden case of insomnia."
Hikari sighed. "At first, so did I... I mean, you can manage to overcome insomnia, but I think she hasn't been getting enough sleep because she's worried about how to handle the Mushroom Kingdom."
"Reality probably came at her hard..." Buru muttered, then looked at Maria. "Speaking of which, you're going to be ruling Sarasaland, how come you're not stressed over it?"
"I think it's because I'm also becoming a blacksmith so I don't have to worry about it as much. I know i'll still have princess duties but... still." She said. "...Or it may be because I don't get severe anxiety attacks like Kai does sometimes."
"Ugh, I know what that's like..." Hina muttered. "Stack on PTSD with anxiety because Meta brings out the Brute Shot can take a lot out of you..."
"Glad I don't have to deal with that." Sheila said.
Yeah, because you're an A.I. Hina thought. Lucky bitch...
"Hmm... we gotta calm her down." Buru said. "Has Vanitas and Xion tried anything?"
"They tried everything that would always calm her down but... nothing seemed to work." Maria said.
"I see..." Buru nodded and then smirked. "But they haven't tried everything."
"What are you planning?" Hikari asked.
Buru grinned. "Get Abby and our boyfriends and fiances... especially Kai and Vito. Also, get some new swimsuits and bring a grill, volleyball net, and a beach ball."
Hikari smiled. "Doing Delfino again?"
"Actually..."
Later...
BGM: Beach Bowl Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)
"Beach Bowl Galaxy?" Abby asked, wearing a light green bikini with a Screw Attack pattern and it also had two buttons on the hips of the bottom that look like the Screw Attack power up.
"Hell yeah!" Buru grinned, wearing a blue and purple striped bikini, with a sash tired around the waist that covers part of her left leg.
"Sweet!" She exclaimed and dove right on in.
"Hey Kai! What's the hold up?" Hina asked, wearing a purple bikini with a Halo symbol pattern. The top has a ring connecting the back together.
"Yeah, it's not fun without you!" Maria grinned, wearing a dark blue bikini with a white flower petal pattern. The bottom has two ribbons tied on to the sides of the hips.
Kai emerged from a bush, looking really tired and stress was seen in her eyes, but she forced a smile and did a cute pose. "How do I look?" She asked a bit tiredly, wearing a green bikini with a Triforce pattern. The top is tied on around the back of the neck and the strap.
"You look hot!" Hina exclaimed.
"Thanks..." She still smiled.
"Come on, let's have some fun!" Maria said, running into the water and diving in along with Hina.
"Yay..." She said as her smile disappeared as she walked over and hopped in the water.
"Hope you have fun." Hikari chuckled, wearing a light blue bikini with the top and bottom having a red flame rising from the bottom up.
It was then that Souji, Vito and Paolo jumped into the water, as Souji wore silver swim trunks with a bolt of lightning going down one leg, Vito wearing black swim trunks with a Yoshi egg pattern on them, and Paolo wearing orange swim trunks with a Daisy symbol pattern on them, while Reiji, Icarus and Yosuke were playing volleyball against their girlfriends as Reiji wore brown swim trunks with a silver moon on one leg, Icarus wore green swim trunks with a Nutski pattern on them, and Yosuke wore white swim trunks with a Pikachu head pattern on them.
"HERE IT COMES!" Hikari yelled, jumping up and spiking it as Reiji dove for it and lobbed it up as Yosuke jumped up and spiked it, as they tried to hit it, but they managed to score a point.
"Oh hell yeah!" Yosuke exclaimed, high fiving Reiji and Icarus.
"You got lucky, punks!" Buru said. "But we're just getting started."
"Bring it!" Icarus challenged as they began another round.
Later...
Pause BGM
As the Keyblade girls and their fiances were swimming around with their goggles on, complete with flippers, they noticed that Kai was missing as they swam up to the surface where they heard sobbing in the background. "Kai..." Vito quietly said and swam over as she was sitting next to the pool with the waterfall that flows down into the ocean of Beach Bowl itself, crying her eyes out.
"Oh geez..." Hina said as they swam over.
Vito was immediately by her side. "It's going to be okay..."
"No... it's not..." She sobbed as the rest came up.
"What's wrong?" Maria asked.
"It's just..." Kai wiped her tears but more kept coming. "Everything... I'm going to be a princess of the Mushroom Kingdom and a nurse..."
"So that's what's bugging you?" Hina asked. "Being a princess and a nurse will be too much for you?"
"No... I want to be a nurse so I don't become bored out of my mind doing whatever princesses do... but that's not whats stressing me out..."
"What is?" Paolo asked.
"The politics, trying to keep things in order, trying to keep the Mushroom Kingdom safe... everything." She muttered. "I'm worried that... I'm just going to be the worst princess the Mushroom Kingdom ever had..."
"You didn't even become princess yet and you're worried about that?" Souji asked.
"You don't get it!" Kai snapped. "What if I fail? What if I become the laughing stock of the Mushroom Kingdom?! What if I become the princess that everyone wants to forget?! What if I was doomed to fail being a princess?! WHAT IF I FAIL THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM AND EVERYONE?!" She yelled, followed by a long silence as Hikari and the others heard her crying and heard what Kai said.
"Kai..." Maria put her hand on her shoulder. "You're not going to fail."
"What makes you say that...?"
"Well, for one thing, it's the Mushroom Kingdom and its pretty much laid back. And as for the laughing stock of the Mushroom Kingdom, no offense Paolo... it's Luigi. But even he's got used to that."
"Hey!" Paolo exclaimed. "...Actually, that's true." Sorry, dad...
"But, what about the citizens? I'm just also worried about the criticism that I'll get from some of the residents..."
"Mom got criticized all the time, but that didn't stop her." Vito said.
"And my mother was criticized for being too tomboyish and isn't supposed to have a kick butt attitude. But you know what? She brushes that off like it's no big deal." Paolo said.
"Everyone's a critic, sure... but you shouldn't let it get to you." Souji said. "Sure, there are gonna be those curmudgeons... but you know what? Don't let it get to you."
"The thing is..." Vito smiled. "My mother may be an airhead at times, but the residents care about her. They look up to her for she's such a great princess. There's nothing to worry about, Kai..."
"The residents of Sarasaland feel the same way about my mother... most of them, but yeah." Paolo said. "The thing is, you shouldn't worry about it."
"Kai... we're all going to be cheering you on." Hina said. "Everyone believes in you... but you gotta believe in yourself. That's your problem."
"Yeah, and the neighboring kingdom will just so happen to be ruled by your best friend." Maria winked. "Nothing to worry about!"
"And we also got a badass chef as well." Souji said, causing Hina to blush.
Kai looked at herself in the little pool, thinking about it. Are they right...? Am I just not believing in myself?
"Kid, you worry too much." Gajeel's voice echoed.
I guess I do worry too much… Kai thought.
"What we see is a beautiful princess who will rule the Mushroom Kingdom proudly." Hikari walked up to them. "We'll all be cheering you on... and your parents will too."
Kai sniffed, wiping her tears away. "Thanks..." She said and hugged them all. "I love you guys..."
"We love you too, Kai." Maria smiled. "Now... will it kill you to get some well deserved sleep for once? You look terrible!" She teased.
"Says the fellow princess who's about to get wet."
"What makes you sa-" Kai pushed her in. "WHOA!"
SPLASH!
Resume Beach Bowl Galaxy BGM
Kai grinned, this time it was genuine. "CANNONBALL!" She yelled, diving in.
"Now there's the girl we know and love!" Hina grinned.
"Yeah." Vito smiled. Good to have you back...
Very much later...
"Alright, the cheeseburgers are ready!" Hina grinned, as she turned around... only to see Kai and Vito gone as she turned to see Kai sleeping very peacefully under a tree and cuddling next to Vito... who was resting as well. "Aww~!"
"Man, they look cute together!" Buru exclaimed.
"They sure do!" Maria giggled.
"I think it's safe to say... that she's way more relaxed than she was before." Hikari said.
"Yeah." Hina nodded as Souji put tinfoil around the two burgers.
"Just to be safe." He chuckled as they began eating as they talked, while Kai rested peacefully next to Vito.
...And Kai had a smile while sleeping, looking much more relaxed after everyone cheered her up.
She needed it.
The next day…
"Seriously, what's taking him so long?" Azmuth wondered.
"Patience, Azmuth. I'm sure he'll come soon." Tsukasa said… and then a portal opened up and a certain robot walked out of it. "Took you long enough, Optimus." Tsukasa said impatiently.
"Now what was that about patience?" Azmuth asked, causing Tsukasa to roll his eyes.
"Sorry I'm late, I had to retrieve the All-Spark." He explained. "Apparently, Megatronus caught wind of it after someone told him where it was. I have a sneaking suspicion it was Mephiles."
"So, what did you do?" Cynthia asked.
"I battled him while protecting the All-Spark." He said. "I barely managed to defeat him, but before I could deal the finishing blow, Mephiles appeared, saying he was weak and useless to his plans and called him a disgrace to the Malevolent Seven before killing him."
"So Megatronus was part of Mephiles's plan?" Azmuth asked.
"Apparently, he was. It seemed like he recruited him for a specific purpose to destroy the All-Spark... but it seems as if Mephiles was displeased after I defeated him, so he finished him off. I'll be honest, that wasn't what I was expecting."
Professor Jacob sweatdropped. "Mephiles is using the other members of the Malevolent Seven?"
"He called him a great ally as he was the one responsible for convincing Megatronus to recruit someone called the Meta to retrieve a Keyblade."
Jacob's eyes widened. "He what?!"
"Hmm, I had a feeling that had Mephiles written all over it." Paradox said. "Mephiles saw him as a great ally and wanted him to retrieve the All-Spark... why's that?"
"I think it has something to do with the fact that after we defeat Unicron, Mephiles will use the All-Spark and create himself an army. That's what he had said while he was destroying Megatronus to bits." Optimus said.
Cynthia's eyes widened. "Then we have to defeat Mephiles before we can take on Unicron. Could you even imagine the damage Mephiles will do?!"
"That's why our priority is taking down Mephiles." Paradox said. "Wait a minute, I realized we need one more person in order to reveal ourselves."
"Future Trunks?" Optimus asked. "He arrived just as Mephiles destroyed him. I assumed he was right behind me."
It was then that they heard soggy footsteps and they saw a wet Future Trunks. "No one told me there was a lake in the Citadel." He muttered, shaking his leg out to reveal a shiny Wishiwashi as it hopped back to the water.
"You walked right into that?" Jacob asked.
"No, I made a portal into the lake without even realizing it." Trunks muttered. "Anyone got a towel?"
Later, with a dried up Future Trunks...
"Ladies and gentleman, I'd like to introduce you to some people." Professor Paradox said. "Optimus Prime, Cynthia, Azmuth, Trunks from the Future-" Trunks had a towel above his head. "-Take that towel off. Anyway, me, and Decade all form into a mighty group that was set to defeat the Malevolent Seven."
"There's six of you." Deadpool said.
It was then that Flash walked out of the crowd. "Seven." He grinned.
"Since we lost a member, Flash is filling in for the lost seventh member until we get that member back." Paradox explained. "Anyway, together... we are the Magnificent Seven!"
"Magnificent...Seven?" Xarina tilted her head. "You mean like the movie?"
"I was just about to ask that." Sabrina said.
Tsukasa anime fell from this.
"I told you we should've come up with a better name..." Azmuth muttered.
"The Benevolent Seven didn't have a good ring to it." Paradox admitted. "Anyway, we're here to combat the Malevolent Seven, and it was founded by yours truly. Professor Jacob here is also a part of it, but more like an associate."
"So, we got seven badass members? Sweet." Natsu smirked.
Madoka became lost in thought. The Magnificent Seven... why does that sound so familiar? She wondered as everyone soon dispersed, leaving Madoka deep in thought... wondering why the Magnificent Seven sounds so familiar.
"There's something I should also mention to you." Optimus said as the six looked at him. "Right after he killed Megatronus, he mentioned something about 'using the Ultra Beasts on the Heroes of Light'."
"Ultra Beasts?" Cynthia rubbed her chin in thought. "That sounds… incredibly scary."
"Hmm, they could be some new brand of Heartless…" Azmuth said. "We need to exercise extreme caution."
"Right." Optimus nodded.
Somewhere else…
"Okay, I don't get it." Shikamaru said. "You all fangirl over everything, and yet you didn't fangirl over a huge robot?"
"We wanted to… but… Iris looked like she was about to kill us." Sabrina shivered as Shikamaru raised an eyebrow.
"…I'm not even going to ask." He said as he walked away.
With Xarina…
"You know what I find incredible?" Cana asked, as she was at the bar with Xarina.
"What's that?"
"You always say you're afraid of nothing. I mean, no matter what's thrown at you, you just shrug it off like it's no big deal! Take a look at all the enemies you've encountered including your days in the Organization. When you keep telling me or anyone else stories, all I hear is that you are not afraid of anything."
Xarina chuckled. "Yeah… I'm not afraid of anything!"
"Everyone's afraid of something, no matter how much you deny it." Makarov said, who was with them. "Even Natsu has his fears, and that's not counting me or Erza."
Xarina thought about it, knowing he had a good point. "Truthfully… I am afraid of something…"
"Huh? And what would that be?" Cana asked.
"Losing my family…" She said.
"Isn't that like everyone's fear?"
"Except… I'm completely terrified of it. So terrified that I just stand there… petrified and do nothing about it…"
"Losing your family can be hard to swallow." Makarov said, drinking out of a mug. "You shouldn't let that stop you. It doesn't stop everyone else from saving their family."
"But when you can't do anything to stop it? That's different…" Xarina muttered. "Nan was killed by the Chaos Kin, he sacrificed his life in the Enterprise… and I wasn't there to save him because I was trapped in a cell…"
"You were there when Nan got his arm cut off." Cana said.
"That's because I could do something… because I was there. But… what if… what if I'm not there for any other member of my family? I was scared when Demyx was almost killed by Adam…"
"So that explains the scar…" Makarov rubbed his chin in thought.
"Seeing that scar reminded me to always be there for my family… no matter what. I don't want to lose any of them… I just can't fathom any of them dying right in front of me. Nan… Demyx… Neo… Hina… Roxas… Namine… I feel like I need to protect them… while claiming I'm not afraid of anything."
"Don't let it get to you." Cana said.
"I try not to…" Xarina sighed. "Just… promise me you won't tell anyone of this. I don't want anyone finding out I'm actually afraid of anything."
"Our lips… are sealed." Makarov said. "But word of advise; there's no reason to be ashamed of having fear, in fact it's fear itself that can make us stronger."
"I'll remember that…" Xarina said, wiping her tears away. "I just want to be there for them…"
"And you will. Nothing is going to stop you." Cana smiled.
"Yeah…" She said, as they were completely unaware of something well hidden behind her shirt.
At the Malevolent Seven base…
"The plot thickens…" Apocalypse chuckled darkly, listening into a recording device. It was a good thing he requested Nega to make the recording device so he can listen in to the most interesting conversations. "Now I know her weakness!"
"What in the world are you talking about?" Homura asked.
"Nothing that would interest you."
"If you say so." Homura shrugged as she was cleaning her Sniper Rifle.
Meanwhile…
"Hey, Cynthia!" Deadpool walked over to her.
"Oh, hello Deadpool."
"I heard that you and Sabrina are going to have a huge battle soon."
"We are."
"May I suggest something to spice things up a little?"
"Oh?"
Deadpool pulled out a Mega Ring and Mega Stone. "You might need these for your Garchomp." He said and then turned around. "Toodles!" He said and took off.
"Hmm…" Cynthia rubbed her chin in thought. "This might get interesting." She chuckled.
Later…
"WELCOME, ONE AND ALL, TO AN EXCITING POKEMON BATTLE!" Deadpool yelled. "I AM YOUR HOST, DEADPOOL!"
"And I'm the Co-Host, Genie of the Lamp!"
"And we have an exciting match for you today in the Nature Reserve! Now for those of you are just tuning in, we have the Sinnoh League Champion: Cynthia in the red corner!"
"And in the blue corner, we have Sabrina!"
"This is going to be an exciting match folks!"
"…We could get on with it, y'know…" Noire said.
"Not to worry… I stole one of Deadpool's remotes when he wasn't looking." Neptune grinned and pointed at them. "Fast forward… now!"
"…Oh god, they sound horrible…"
"Hehehe…" Neptune pressed the play button.
"AND WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, LET'S GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD! …Whoa, I think my life flashed before my eyes there…!" Deadpool said.
"You ready for this?" Cynthia asked.
"You bet." Sabrina nodded.
"Alright, then let's do this."
Sabrina glanced over at Munna and Kyurem and basically her family cheering her on. Wish me luck. She thought, then seeing Latias stretching right next to her. "Let me know when it's my turn." She said.
"Got it." She nodded as the two of them brought out their first Pokeballs, both of them closing their eyes as there was a low wind blowing their eyes, as there was high tension in the air… and then, they opened their eyes.
BGM: Battle! Sinnoh Champion Cynthia (Pokemon Sun and Moon)
"Spiritomb, let's go!" Cynthia shouted.
"Galvantula, you're on!" Sabrina shouted.
Spiritomb and Galvantula entered the battle, both of them glaring right at each other. "Electro Ball!"
"Sucker Punch!" Cynthia ordered as Spiritomb quickly Sucker Punched Galvantula, but Galvantula shook that off and then used Electro Ball. "Quick, dodge it!"
"Spiritomb!" Spiritomb jumped in the air to dodge it.
"Use Electric Web!"
"Galvant!" Galvantula used Electro Web, managing to get a hold of Spiritomb.
"Spirit…!" Spiritomb growled and proceeded to use Will-O-Wisp, but Galvantula jumped back right when Spiritomb landed, then Galvantula used Signal Beam, but Spiritomb dodged the attack.
"Pain Split!"
Did she just say…?! Sabrina thought as Galvantula was hit by it and groaned a little as Spiritomb was healed a little.
"Now use Shadow Sneak!"
"Dodge that attack and use Discharge!"
Galvantula quickly avoided Shadow Sneak and used Discharge, hitting Spiritomb as it countered with Sucker Punch as it attempted to use Electro Ball, then Spiritomb proceeded to hit him with Shadow Sneak. "Galvant…!"
"Come on… stay strong!" Sabrina said as Galvantula shook off the pain and used Electro Web after using Signal Beam to make Spiritomb avoid that.
"Spirit…!"
"Finish it off with Discharge!"
"I don't think so. Pain Split!"
Spiritomb quickly used it after it got hit with Discharge. "Galvan…tula…!" Galvantula winced as Spiritomb used Shadow Sneak to finish it off.
Sabrina put Galvantula back. Man… I gotta be aware of that Pain Split… She thought and pulled out the next Pokeball. "Malamar!" She shouted, releasing Malamar. "Use Night Slash!"
Malamar attempted to use Night Slash, but Spiritomb Sucker Punched Malamar, but as it did, Malamar smirked and used a powerful Night Slash to defeat the Spiritomb.
"Not bad." Cynthia said, putting Spiritomb away. She's quite the charismatic one. She thought and pulled out her next Pokeball. "Let's go, Glaceon!"
"Glace!" Glaceon cried.
"Use Barrier!"
Smart move… Sabrina thought. "Psycho Cut!" She ordered as the Glaceon took on the Psycho Cut like a trooper.
"Ice Beam!"
"Psybeam!"
The two unleashed their attacks as they hit right into each other and caused a standstill… until there was an explosion that covered the two… but when the smoke cleared, Glaceon was asleep… and looking mighty wounded. "What the…?!" Cynthia asked.
"Malamar knows Hypnosis." Sabrina smirked.
"Impressive!" Cynthia said as she called Glaceon back before Malamar could KO it and then called out her next Pokemon. "Milotic, let's go!"
"Alright, let's stay focused."
"Mala."
"Use Surf!" She ordered.
"MILOOOOO!" Milotic cried, using Surf.
"Now use Ice Beam to cover up the water!"
"Milotic!" It cried.
"Quick, jump!" Sabrina ordered as Malamar jumped up, but Milotic turned and used Ice Beam directly on Malamar.
"MALA!" Malamar cried as it splashed in the water… and adding insult to injury, Milotic used Ice Beam on the water to freeze the area. "M-Mala…!"
Shit…! Sabrina thought as Milotic unleashed a powerful Hydro Pump to finish off Malamar as she put away Malamar. You did a good job. She thought and then pulled out her next Pokeball. "SERVINE, LET'S GO!"
Sweet! I forgot she evolved her Snivy recently. Latias thought.
"Servine!"
A Grass type… hmm, I need to be careful with this one. Cynthia thought. "Ice Beam!"
"Dodge that and use Leaf Blade!"
Servine quickly dodged the attack and then used Leaf Blade on top of Milotic's head, causing Milotic to growl and whack Servine away with her tail, but Servine quickly recovered. "Vine Whip!"
"Dodge that and use the same thing you did on Malamar!"
"I don't think so! Leaf Tornado!"
"SER…VIIIIINE!" Servine yelled, using Leaf Tornado and trapping Milotic, then using Vine Whip to attack Milotic repeatedly as Milotic soon landed on the ground, looking very weak.
"Use Recover!"
"Mi… Milo…" Milotic attempted to use Recover, but then Servine jumped over and used Leaf Blade again, and then used Mega Drain to prevent her from doing so, and then knocked her down.
That Servine's fast… but… I wonder if it can keep up with this Pokemon? Cynthia wondered, putting Milotic away. "Togekiss!"
"Toge!"
"Use Shadow Ball!"
"Toge… KISS!" Togekiss cried, using Shadow Ball but Servine jumped over and then used Vine Whip to grab a hold of Togekiss and threw it to the side while also using Leaf Blade.
"Dazzling Gleam!"
Togekiss used Dazzling Gleam on Servine, but Servine managed to hang on and then used Mega Drain to get back the health that it lost, then using Leaf Blade to hit Togekiss. "Air Slash!" Cynthia ordered, as Togekiss used it at Servine at close range.
"SERV…!" Servine cried.
"Thunder Wave!"
"Kiss!" Togekiss cried, using Thunder Wave on Servine, paralyzing him.
Oh no… Sabrina thought.
"Shadow Ball!"
Togekiss used Shadow Ball on Servine, knocking him back a little. "Servine… use Mega Drain!" Sabrina ordered, but Servine's paralysis prevented him from doing so. Crap!
"Keep pelting it with Shadow Ball and then use Air Cutter to finish it off!"
"Togekiss!" Togekiss nodded and used Shadow Ball over and over again as Servine struggled to keep going.
Come on, Servine… I have total faith in you… Sabrina thought. "LEAF BLADE!"
"Serv…ine…" Servine growled as his tail glowed. "Serv… Serv…" Servine managed to overcome the paralysis. "SERV!" Servine cried and ran forward.
Cynthia's eyes widened in surprise. "Use Air Cutter!"
Servine jumped forward as Togekiss used Air Cutter… right when Servine's Tail smacked into its face.
"TOGE!"
"VIIIINE!"
Both of them stumbled to the ground before they struggled to get up… but in the end… they both fainted.
"I have to say, I'm having a lot of fun." Cynthia said, putting Togekiss away along with Sabrina.
"So am I." She said, bringing out her next Pokemon along with Cynthia.
"Lucario!"
"Sableye!"
"Alright, use Aura Sphere!" Cynthia ordered.
"Shadow Ball!"
Both the Aura Sphere and Shadow Ball collided into each other and caused another explosion as Lucario and Sableye both went into the smoke, as Lucario used Close Combat while Sableye used Shadow Claw and Foul Play, then Lucario used Bullet Punch to knock Sableye away, then using Extreme Speed to catch up and tried to clobber it, but when he got close, Sableye used Confuse Ray at close range, confusing Lucario.
During this time, Cynthia had called out Glaceon and used an Awakening to wake it up as they spotted Lucario getting confused. "Oh no…" Cynthia thought. "Lucario, snap out of it! Use Bullet Punch!"
Lucario obeyed… by using Bullet Punch on himself, causing Cynthia's eyes to widen while Sableye used Foul Play to deal a lot of damage. Come on, snap out of it…! Cynthia thought as Lucario kept hitting himself… until they saw his arm grabbing a hold of his other and then aimed it directly at Sableye, trying to stay focused and using Aura Sphere at Sableye, but Sableye was in the middle of using Shadow Claw and phased through the Aura Sphere, as fighting type moves like Aura Sphere have no affect on Ghost Pokemom, as Lucario fell down while Sableye stayed strong.
Cynthia pulled Lucario back in his ball. "You did well, Lucario." She said and looked at Glaceon.
"Glace!" It nodded and jumped forward, still looking weak but determined to knock the Sableye down as it used Shadow Ball and Sableye did the same thing, both of them hitting each other and causing an explosion as they went into the smoke as Sableye attempted to use Confuse Ray, but Glaceon jumped out of the way and used Signal Beam to knock it back and then used Shadow Ball to knock it out of the smoke as Glaceon ran forward and jumped up and used Ice Beam, but Sableye jumped to the side and when Glaceon landed, Sableye went in for the kill with Shadow Claw to knock it out.
Cynthia called Glaceon away. "Well, I do admit this has been quite fun… but let's wrap this up." She said, by throwing up one last Pokeball, and in that moment, Sabrina could've sworn she saw a Mega Ring under her sleeve. "Garchomp!"
The Pokeball opened up to reveal Garchomp. "Gar!"
Cynthia chuckled. "Now… let's spice things up a little." She said, getting in a certain pose and touched her sleeve… and then to everyone's amazement… Garchomp Mega Evolved.
"WHAT THE?!" Sabrina yelled in complete shock. "When did… when did you…?!"
Cynthia continued to chuckle. "Let's just say… a friend." She said. "Now… Earthquake!" She ordered as Garchomp proceeded to use Earthquake to knock out poor Sableye and was called back.
Oh, this is bad… Sabrina thought but then a hand touched her shoulder to see Latias.
"Let's do it." She said.
"Right." Sabrina nodded as Latias ran in and getting in a pose.
"Ready when you are!"
"Hmm?" Cynthia wondered. Now why isn't she transforming into her Pokemon form? She wondered.
"Let's do this!" Sabrina said, hitting the Mega Ring on her wrist, as Latias Mega Evolved.
Cynthia's eyes widened in surprise. So Latias has a Mega Form in her human form as well? Those two must have quite the unique friendship. "Earthquake!"
Latias smirked and then jumped up in the air to avoid it. "DRACO METEOR!" She yelled, unleashing it on Garchomp.
Cynthia gasped a little. "Dodge that and use Dragon Claw!"
Garchomp managed to avoid the Draco Meteor and its explosions as it ran over and used Dragon Claw on Latias. "Agh!" Latias winced and jumped back. "Let's see if you like this…" She said, putting her hands together and unleashed an Ice Beam, hitting Garchomp as Garchomp retaliated by using Outrage to knock Latias back… who used Dragon Breath.
Latias chuckled. "Haven't had this much fun in a long time!"
Cynthia chuckled. "Glad to see you're having fun." She said. Sabrina certainly is quite the unique girl that I've ever met. She thought. Same with this Latias.
Latias' head glowed and proceeded to use Zen Headbutt, slamming into Garchomp, but grabbed a hold of her and used Crunch, but Latias managed to kick him away before his teeth could connect as she unleashed Draco Meteor again, but Garchomp proceeded to run forward, dodging the explosions and used Dragon Claw to knock her back and then using Outrage to really make things worse.
"Just because you're a human doesn't mean you don't have your weaknesses." Cynthia said.
"I'm well aware of that…" Latias winced as she proceeded to use Dragon Breath but to her surprise, Garchomp crossed his arms and managed to block that, despite taking damage as she used Ice Beam, but he jumped out of the way, proceeding to dodge the attacks and then used Dragon Claw when he got close, as she screamed in agony and landed next to to Sabrina, knocked out cold.
Garchomp smirked and then jumped back. "Well, I suppose you have one Pokemon left."
This Garchomp…is way scarier than behind a little DS screen… but I'm not going to let Garchomp get the best of me. She thought. "GRENINJA, LET'S GO!" She yelled, throwing the Pokeball as Greninja came out.
"Ninja!"
"Let's make this fair, shall we?" Cynthia asked, tossing a Full Restore to heal Garchomp.
"Grenin." Greninja turned his head to Sabrina and gave her the thumbs up.
"Right." Sabrina nodded as Greninja ran forward and used Water Shuriken, but Garchomp slashed downward, as the Water Shuriken was knocked down to the ground as he ran forward and then stomped on the ground, using Earthquake, but Greninja jumped up in the air and used Hydro Pump to knock Garchomp back a little.
"Ninja!" Greninja ran over as Garchomp did the same as he slashed down, but Greninja used Water Shuriken at his belly to knock him back and then backflipped, kicking Garchomp in the chin in the process, then Garchomp ran forward and used Crunch, but Greninja jumped over and turned around, conjuring up water katanas and slashed Garchomp repeatedly, clashing with Garchomp's blades, but then Garchomp used Outrage and hitting Greninja… until he was replaced by a little doll as Garchomp's eyes widened as the real Greninja appeared from behind and used Shadow Sneak.
"Gar!" Garchomp growled.
"Ninja!" Greninja proceeded to use Hydro Pump to knock it back, but Garchomp held its ground and used Earthquake to harm Greninja, then ran forward and slashed him repeatedly, then using Dragon Claw.
"GAR..CHOMP!" Garchomp smirked.
"Ninja nin…ja!"
This is it… Cynthia thought.
It's now or never… Sabrina thought.
"NOW! FINISH IT!" Both of them yelled.
Greninja jumped back and so did Garchomp, both of them locking eyes as Greninja conjured up the water katanas again, both at a standstill before they both launched forward, ready to end it once and for all as they both slashed through each other before getting behind one another, as both of them stood very still.
"Gre…nin…" Greninja winced, falling on one knee… but refused to fall over.
"Come on, Greninja… stand up…!" Sabrina said, hoping he had some energy left.
"This has been quite the battle, Sabrina… but it's all over now." Cynthia said as Garchomp walked over to Greninja, raising his claw up and activating Dragon Claw. "Finish it." She ordered.
But then… the Dragon Claw deactivated. "G-Gar…chomp…" Garchomp groaned… before falling on its back in defeat.
"Ninja…" Greninja whispered, weakly giving Sabrina the thumbs up.
End BGM
Cynthia closed her eyes and lightly smiled. "Hmm, so that's how it ends." She said, watching Garchomp's Mega Evolution deactivate.
"I… did it…?" Sabrina asked. "Oh my god… I actually did it…" She said as her legs looked like they were about to give out, but Latias caught her as soon as she fell.
"Oh no, you're not going down on my watch." She smiled.
Greninja got up, holding on to his arm and walked over to Garchomp. "Ninja…" He said, extending his arm out.
"Gar…" Garchomp took it and Greninja pulled him up as he then walked over to Sabrina.
"Grenin." Greninja patted Sabrina on the shoulder.
Cynthia chuckled and walked over to Sabrina. "You sure have a unique team, especially with a Latias that can Mega Evolve in her human form as well." She said, extending her arm as Sabrina took it as she then pulled her into a hug. "That was a great battle, I was really thrilled to battling you."
"Me too." Sabrina smiled as Munna hopped up on her shoulder.
"I knew you would win." Munna said.
"Hmph, as if." Kyurem said. "You said you weren't sure Sabrina would win, knowing how it went with Garchomp."
"I said no such thing!"
"That's interesting…" Cynthia looked at the Munna. "A talking Munna? Now that's really unique." She said. "How'd you get it to talk?"
"…It's a long story." Sabrina said.
Cynthia chuckled. "I bet it is." She said and then walked away. "I'll be around." She said, waving goodbye and walked off.
"Mommy!" Rose ran over. "That was an amazing battle!"
Sabrina smiled. "Thanks, sweetie." She said and then saw Stufful in Rose's arms. "Oh, who's this little cutie?" She asked, bending over to look at the little cutie.
"It's Stufful!" She smiled.
"Stuff!" Stufful greeted.
Sabrina smiled. "It's so adorable…" She said. "Mind if I hold him?"
"Sure… but uh, I'd be careful. He's a bit… feisty when I first met him." She warned as Sabrina gently took Stufful and held it.
"You're a cutie!" She said.
"Stuff!"
"Oh… you look so fluffy and I just want to hug you tightly!" She said, and she proceeded to do so.
"Oh, here we go…" Latias chuckled while playfully rolling her eyes as the rest of her family watched.
"Stuff… STUUUUFF!" Stufful, however, didn't want to be squished and flailed its arms to get some breathing room, and giving Sabrina a small bruise on her shoulder.
"Ow!" Sabrina winced and pulled away. "You weren't kidding when you said he was a little feisty." She said.
"Told ya." Rose smiled and gently took Stufful back and then Sabrina spotted Type: Null and Maria Jr.
"Oh, who's that?" She asked.
"Type: Null… but I call him Null." Maria Jr. said.
"Hmm, he's certainly… interesting." Sabrina said. Strangest name I've ever heard for a Pokemon. She thought and curiously examined him before reaching out to pet him, but Null moved away.
"Don't touch me…"
"He talks?" Sabrina asked in surprise.
"Yeah… but he doesn't trust humanity." Maria Jr. said and explained why.
"Someone cyrogenetically froze this thing?" Sabrina asked as she clenched her fist. "Well, whoever's responsible for that… they should be glad they haven't met me." She said as she looked around at the Alola Pokemon, and then looking back at Stufful and Null… and then she had an idea.
"We need a second attempt on our family vacation." She said.
Isaac smirked. "You mean head over to the Alola Region?"
"Exactly." She nodded. "We're going to Alola for a second attempt on our vacation."
"What was the first?" Latias asked as Sabrina explained what happened last time. "Oooooh…"
"Yeah… but now, let's do this!" Sabrina grinned.
A few minutes later…
Marisa walked over to Sabrina. "What's with the bikini? You planning on going swimming in the pool?"
"Actually, we're doing our second attempt of our family vacation."
"Second? What happened to the first attempt?"
"It was when a little damned princess kidnapped Sabrina's family." Reimu walked over. "Nui."
"Oh yeah, you did tell me about that." Marisa said. "Huh, usually your family vacations go by smoothly and… totally uneventful."
"I know. I wanted it to be that way too…" Sabrina sighed. "That's why we're trying it again."
Reimu chuckled. "I'm sure it'll be fine. Not like it's gonna be horrific or anything." She said as they both nodded as the two best friends walked away… but as they did, Yukari walked past them. "Uh oh…"
"What?"
"I just saw Yukari's 'I'm going to mess with them' face."
"…Oh no…"
Sabrina heard footsteps as she turned to see their whole family packed and ready to go. "So, you guys ready?"
"Yeah, totally!" Sora chuckled.
"We have everything." Flare grinned.
"Hey, where's Kimomaru?" Rose asked.
"Right here." Kimomaru appeared, wearing a Hawaiian shirt. "Saki and Satoru took me to the Mushroom Kingdom to find some... clothes for me."
"Didn't you wear clothes before?" Isaac asked.
"Armor, yes... but they thought i'd fit in more by wearing... comfortable clothes, if you will."
"Hey, might as well." Saki shrugged with a grin.
"Alright, let's go to the Alola Region!" Minene said.
"Wait, there's one more." Sabrina said, as they saw Latias running over to them. "I invited her over!" She grinned.
"Sorry about the wait, I had to find a cute bikini for me!" She giggled.
"...You're a Pokemon..." Flare said.
"So? Doesn't mean I can't look cute in my human form."
"She's not wrong." Kairi said.
Yukari walked over. "Going over to the Alola Region?"
"Yeah, we saw the perfect location called Hano Grand Resort and we've good things about it, so we're heading over there." Sabrina replied.
"In that case..." Yukari opened up a portal. "In you go!"
"Gee, thanks!" Isaac grinned as they all ran in, but Deadpool gave her a glare.
"You're not messing with us or anything... right?"
"Would I ever mess with you?"
"Yes."
"Think of this as atoning for my behavior for messing with you from time to time."
From afar...
"MAN, SHE'S GOOD!" Reimu and Marisa yelled.
Back to them...
"Alrighty..." Deadpool said and ran in. "CANNONBAAAALL!"
Yukari closed the gap and chuckled evilly. "Good luck." She said and walked away, playfully giving Reimu and Marisa a look. "And that's checkmate."
"I'm pretty sure they're going to kill you for wherever it is you actually sent them." Reimu said. "…If I don't kill you first."
"Oh relax, they're going to have a fun time over there!" She giggled. "I sent them to their destination."
"…Spill it. Where'd you really send them?" Marisa asked, reaching for her Hakkero.
Yukari chuckled. "Well…"
Meanwhile...
BGM: Encounter! Team Skull (Pokemon Sun and Moon)
"Yo yo yo! You think you can mess with us, punk? You think you can invade our turf in Po Town? Don't even think about it, girlie!"
"I already got past the gate, you morons..."
"Even so... we don't take kindly to intruders!"
"Let's go, Spinarak!"
"Grimer, let's mess her up!"
"You are in for a bad time, gir-... hold up!"
"...What is it?"
"Do y'all hear screaming?"
It was then that they heard screaming as they looked up and their eyes widened to see Sabrina and her family coming in for the landing. "AAAH! IT'S RAINING PEOPLE!"
"QUICK, MOVE TO THE LEFT AND I'LL MOVE TO THE RIGHT, YO!"
"GOOD IDEA!"
As they split up, they waited for them to land... aaaand they landed on the top of the both of them.
*record scratch*
"WHAT IN THE WORLD?!" The girl yelled.
"How was that even... possible...?"
"I... d-don't even... ow... know..."
Deadpool groaned. "GOD DAMMIT, YUKARI!"
"That's the last time I'm trusting her..." Kairi groaned.
"N-next time… I'm having Hoopa take us there…" Flare groaned.
"Then why didn't you…?" Isaac groaned.
"Hey, could you kindly get off of us? You're killing us, yo!"
They soon got off of the Team Skull grunts.
Resume Encounter! Team Skull BGM
"Alright... where did we leave off? Oh yeah, let's resu-"
"...Incineroar, use Flare Blitz..." The girl said, trying to comprehend what just happened... and then the two Pokemon and the grunts were blasted away.
End BGM
BGM: Po Town (Pokemon Sun and Moon)
"Well, that was... something..." Sabrina rubbed the back of her head.
"Um... would you mind telling me who are you people and why you fell from the sky?" She then spotted Kimomaru. "And why you have an ugly Pokemon with you?"
Kimomaru raised an eyebrow. "Pokemon...?"
One long introduction and explanation later...
"Hmm..." The girl scratched her chin in thought. "So what you're basically saying is, you're from other worlds."
"That is correct." Deadpool said.
"Okay..." The girl said, thinking they might have landed too hard. But they did seem friendly considering they helped her. "...I guess that would explain how a Pokemon can talk like that."
"I'm telling you, I'm not a Pokemon..." Kimomaru sweatdropped.
"So um... what's your name?" Sabrina asked.
The girl smiled. "My name is Moon Akiyama." She said.
Moon has wavy caramel blonde hair that goes down to her shoulders with sideswept bangs as she also has green eyes as she's also wearing an orange flower barrette in her hair on the right side. As for her clothes, she's wearing an orange halter top with a black undershirt that is tied around her neck, black capris, orange sporty sneakers with a black Pikachu tail on both sides of the shoes with white soles, black crew socks. Her bag is an orange sporty bag and she also has some sort of ring on her.
"I also have these Pokemon." She said, tossing out several Pokemon. "You've already met Incineroar." She said, as Incineroar folded his arms and gave a 'sup' nod as her other Pokemon was a Charjabug, Alolan Sandslash, Alolan Exeggutor, Mudsdale and a Toxapex. "I've traded several of my Pokemon to get the Sandslash, Exeggutor and Toxapex... apparently, they were really hard to find."
"Roar..." Incineroar said, pointing to their outfits and pointing to the rain.
"Huh?" Sora asked.
"He's asking why we're wearing swimsuits when it's raining here." Latias translated as Moon was just about to translate.
"...How did you...?"
"I'm from Alto Mare."
"Alto Mare?"
"I'm a Latias."
"Wait... Latias... as in one of the Legendary Pokemon?"
"Yep."
"Sweet. I've heard a lot about you."
"Can we discuss this somewhere else? I'm a little cold..." Maria Jr. said, shivering.
"Oh yeah, I was just on my way to the Pokemon Center." Moon said, looking over at the Pokemon Center as they proceeded to walk in to warm up... but as they did...
"Yo yo yo! You wanna heal up yo' Pokemon? You gotta pay up!"
"Yeah! Ten Pokedollars each!"
"Wait, you're charging us?" Moon asked, surprised to actually see Team Skull taking over a Pokemon Center.
"Yes! We gotta pay the bills someway!"
Moon turned to them. "...You have Pokemon on you, right?"
"Oh yeah." Sabrina nodded. "I'm not paying criminals."
"Then let's do this." Moon smirked.
"What, you challenging us to a battle? You gotta be joking! There's no way you can take us on!"
"Is that a fact?" Moon still smirked as Incineroar cracked his knuckles with a huge smirk on his face, while Latias transformed, Sabrina called out Greninja, Kyurem and Malamar, Riku calling out Absol, Minene calling out Gigalith and Aegislash, Yuno calling out Darkrai, Kairi calling out Fennekin, Sora calling out Hawlucha, Rose calling out Jellicent and Shaymin while Pikachu jumped off her shoulders, electricity sparking out of her cheeks, Maria Jr. calling out Red Genesect and Null, Isaac calling out Mismagius, and Flare calling out Hoopa, Entei and Registeel.
Needless to say, the Team Skull Grunts were completely shocked at the Pokemon.
"You were saying?" Isaac asked.
"...Wh-who cares about that, yo? We can still take you on!"
"Yeah!"
One pathetically one-sided battle later...
Deadpool kicked them out. "AAAAND STAY OUT!" He yelled, closing the doors behind them.
"Alright, let's get this place running again." Moon said. "...Because we kinda... trashed the place even more..."
"Yeah... whoops." Sabrina rubbed the back of her head.
Later...
"HEY, WE HEARD QUITE THE COMMO-" A female Team Skull grunt jawdropped at what she saw... along with a few others as they saw a newly refurbished Pokemon Center.
BGM: Pokemon Center (Pokemon Sun and Moon)
"Yo yo yo! We have free chimichangas!" Deadpool exclaimed, as he had a stand in there as well... for some odd reason.
"Hey, what's the meaning of this?"
"We kicked out your teammates." Moon said. "And we took the Pokemon Center back."
"...We'll be taking it back now!"
"Ah!" Deadpool got in front of them. "Not going to happen... unless you pay a fee!"
"What fee?"
"Entering the Pokemon Center of course! Pay up!"
"Are you serious?! Okay, FINE! We have a hundred Pokedollars each. So would that be enough?"
"Nope!"
"...Then how much is it?"
"Exactly 500,000 Pokedollars."
"HOW MUCH?!"
"Oh, so you don't got the dough? THEN NO CHIMICHANGAS FOR YOU!" He yelled, kicking them out.
"Heh, that'll teach 'em not to have us pay ten Pokedollars." Sabrina chuckled.
"...In all seriousness though... we should get that Yungoos back." Moon said as they nodded.
"Hold it! We need proper clothing attire!" Deadpool said.
One clothing change later...
"Ah, much better!" Sabrina grinned.
"Now that's more like it." Riku chuckled.
"Ladies and gentleman, we're glad you enjoyed your stay at the grand reopening of the Pokemon Center. Have a free complimentary umbrella on your way out!" Deadpool said as they pulled out umbrellas and walked out.
"Are the umbrellas necessary?" Moon asked.
"It's Deadpool, don't question it." Isaac said.
"I don't know who Deadpo-"
"Again, don't question it."
"Okay then..."
"There, set up a booby trap for those who even dare think about trashing the Pokemon Center again!" Deadpool said as they took off. "Hehehehe... boobies." He chuckled as they went towards the abandoned building.
But as they did, some remaining Team Skull grunts tried to take them down… but they didn't get very far as they kept on going.
"What's going on?!" A Team Skull Grunt asked. "Don't they know we're being invaded?!" He asked as something poked his shoulder as he slowly turned around to see the group, and Incineroar pounded his fist into his palm with a smirk, complete with cracking the knuckles. "Uh… eheheh…"
POW!
"YAAAAGH!" The Team Skull Grunt cried as he landed in a pool… that's totally dried up. "Ow…"
"Come on, let's get going." Moon said as they proceeded to enter the Shady House.
"Hey, where do you think YOU'RE GOING?!" A Skull Grunt asked. "No one but Team Skull is allowed-" Sabrina sent out Kyurem. "-In… here…" He paled. "Mother… alright, Zubat, Gastly, Salandit, let's GO!" He yelled.
"Glaciate." Sabrina said, as Kyurem used Glaciate to completely destroy them.
"NO FAIR!" The Skull Grunt complained.
"Hey!" A female Team Skull grunt walked over. "You're not allowed in here. I'll take you all down so Guzma will stay chill!" She said and tossed out a Mareanie.
"Oh, what's that?" Rose asked, opening up her Pokedex.
Mareanie, the Brutal Star Pokemon. It's found crawling on beaches and seafloors. The coral that grows on Corsola's head is as good as a five-star banquet to this Pokemon.
"That thing chows down on Corsola?!" Isaac asked.
"Heh, it sure does!"
"Okay, that just makes me sick." Minene growled, as she tossed out Zapdos.
"Whoa whoa whoa… is that a Zapdos?"
"Yep."
"…Mind if we trade?"
"No." Minene said as Zapdos used Thunder to zap Mareanie… and the poor female Grunt in the process, knocking them both out.
"Bzzrt! That had to hurt!" A voice said.
"Who said that?" Riku asked.
"I did!" A voice said as a Pokedex floated up. "Hello!"
Moon smiled. "Would you believe me that a Rotom now possesses my Pokedex?"
"Really? That's really incredible." Flare said, examining it.
"Yeah… and he's a bit sassy too." Moon chuckled. "Not like that's a bad thing." She said as they decided to split up and check the place out as Isaac found a note on the ground, as he was with Saki, Satoru, Yuno, Rose and Sabrina.
"This month's secret Team Skull password is: Beat Up." Isaac read.
"Now who would leave a password lying around? That's just stupid." Yuno said.
"And incredibly helpful." Satoru said.
"Right." Sabrina chuckled. "They just made a big mistake."
In another room where Moon beat up a Team Skull Grunt's Haunter with Sandslash, she walked into a room where she came across a note and picked it up.
"This month's secret Team Skull password is: Tapu Cocoa. Remember: A true Team Skull member always butt heads and answers with a hearty 'no!'. She read. "Heh, good to know." She said and then whispered something in Incineroar's ear as he gave a thumbs up.
With Deadpool…
Deadpool walked in on two Female Skull Grunts, arguing about their tops. "You're wearing MY top!"
"Ugh, that explains the smell… but it's still mine!"
"Why don't we just write our names on them so we can tell who's is who's?"
"One problem! All of our names are Grunt! It's not going to work!"
"Ladies!" Deadpool said, grabbing their attention. "Instead of fighting over a tank top, why don't you fight over me~? I mean, there's room for both of you after all!"
"…Do you even know who we are?"
"We'll make you pay for that!"
"GO, RATTATA!"
"RATICATE, LET'S GO!"
"Whoa, ladies… let's not get too hasty!"
"…Cobalion, use Sacred Sword…" A voice said as Rattata and Raticate were quickly taken care of as Deadpool looked to see a very annoyed Minene.
"Heheh, thanks." Deadpool said.
"Sometimes… I can't even believe you…" Minene muttered as the two Skull Grunts sweatdropped at the Cobalion before taking off. "Anyway, we stumbled across this." She said, giving him a note.
"Let's see here…" He said, putting on reading glasses. "This month's Team Skull Password is: Golisopod." He said.
"You have reading glasses?" Minene asked.
"Hell no. I borrowed them from Cyclops. It's not like he needed them!" He said, tossing them to the side as Minene sweatdropped.
"Okay, then…"
Later after they regrouped…
"Yo, you wanna have a word with Guzma? Then you gotta tell me this month's first password! What move does Master Guzma like best?" A Team Skull Grunt asked.
"Beat Up." Yuno said.
"…You know, we can climb over those boxes." Isaac said, pointing over to them.
"Better than wasting our time with this loser? Yeah, I'm down for that." Sabrina said as they proceeded to walk over there.
"WAIT WAIT WAIT! NO! YOU CAN'T DO THAT! YOU GOTTA TELL ME WHICH POKEMON MASTER GUZMA LIKES BEST!"
"Golisopod." Deadpool said as they were already on the other side and Moon and Incineroar were the only ones left as Incineroar gave Moon a boost.
"And what about his favorite drink? DON'T YOU CLIMB THOSE BOXES!"
"Tapu Cocoa." Moon said.
"So let's be honest here! PLEASE! YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT! ARE YOU SURE CLIMBING OVER THOSE BOXES ARE A GOOD IDEA?! THIS IS CHEATING, FOR ARCEUS'S SAKE!"
Incineroar turned around and smirked, as he grabbed his shoulders and then headbutted him really hard to knock him on the ground.
"No." Moon smiled.
"Ooow… okay… you can… ow… pass…"
Incineroar smirked again and then climbed over the boxes. "I bet he has a migraine now." Latias said.
Sabrina laughed. "No kidding." She said as they walked forward as the two Skull Grunts looked really worried… most likely because of the Incineroar just basically headbutted on of their members as they went on through.
"Well, well, well… what do we have here?" A man asked as they saw the leader of Team Skull sitting on a throne. "If it isn't the little girl."
"Guzma…" Moon glared at him.
"Heh, it's not every day that trouble comes running up and I take 'em down." Guzma smirked. "And what's this? You brought some friends along with you? Heh, good… more punks to take down too."
"I'm not here for you… I'm here for that Yungoos."
"Oh right, the Yungoos." Guzma glanced over to one of the Team Skull grunts holding the Yungoos hostage. "Heh, I can manage to beat y'all down if I can."
"Uh… Master… all of them?"
"Well… maybe with the help of some friends." He said. "HEY GRUNTS, YOU BETTER MAKE YOURSELVES USEFUL!" He yelled… but no one came.
"Yeah, we beat them all down." Kairi said.
"Lord Guzma… what's with those shadowy things coming out of the door?" The Skull Grunt asked as they turned to see Heartless storming in.
"Heartless… HERE of all places?" Flare asked. "…Then again, I'm not surprised." She said, bringing out their Pokemon to fight while summoning their weapons too.
"Well… that's one way to distract them even though I have no idea what the heck they are." Guzma said. "Oh well." He shrugged as Moon and Sabrina glared at them. "Oh, so you think the both of y'all are so tough?"
"I've beaten you before. You're not so tough." Moon said.
"True, but she hasn't." Guzma smirked.
"I'm about to." Sabrina said.
"Let's see if you can." He chuckled. "You wanna know what I do to machines when they don't work? I give it a good hard smack… which they usually end up destroyed… but never mind about that! Let's see if I can't tear YOU down!" He said, tossing out two Pokemon as they were Ariados and Golisopod.
BGM: Battle! Team Skull Boss Guzma (Pokemon Sun and Moon)
"I'll take care of the Ariados." Moon said.
"Then I'll take care of… whatever that is." Sabrina said.
"That is a Golisopod, it's a Bug/Water type Pokemon!" Rotom told her.
"Heh, well in that case." Sabrina smirked as she tossed out Galvantula.
"First Impression!" Guzma said.
"…Huh?"
Uh oh. Moon thought as Incineroar used Flare Blitz on the Ariados as Golisopod used First Impression on Galvantula, dealing a great amount of damage to him.
"Galvant…!" Galvantula winced.
"Yeah… that move nearly knocked out my Incineroar." Moon said.
"Whoa…" Sabrina said. I need to be careful of that. She thought. "Use Electro Web!"
"Swords Dance!"
"Golis… OOOOOO!" Golisopod cried as it was hit with Electro Web after it used Swords Dance.
"Electro Ball!"
"Dodge that and used Razor Shell!" Guzma ordered, but Golisopod still got hit anyway. "What…?"
"Didn't you know that Electro Web lowered his speed a little… or were you just too dumb to even care?" Sabrina asked.
"Why you obnoxious brat…" Guzma growled. "USE RAZOR SHELL!" He yelled… but then to their surprise, Golisopod high tailed it out of there and hid behind Guzma. "Hey, no need to be afraid, you scaredy cat!"
"…Uh…" Sabrina blinked. "Does it have a very Timid nature or…?"
"Nah, it has the Emergency Exit ability." Rotom said. "Basically, when it's health is 50% or less, the Pokemon runs away… luckily, it only works once per battle."
"Golisopod! Look into my eyes! You are not a coward! You are a WINNER! You hear me?! YOU. ARE. A. WINNER. Now get out there and teach that gigantic spider a lesson by using Razor Shell!"
"Goliso!" Golisopod nodded as he jumped in and used Razor Shell.
"Dodge that!" Sabrina ordered as Galvantula jumped to the side. "Discharge!"
"GALVAAAAANT!" Galvantula yelled, as Golisopod cried out in pain and fell on one knee as Ariados was kicked over towards it.
"Alright, I'll finish them off." Moon said.
"What do you mean?" Sabrina asked.
Moon chuckled. "Just watch." She said. "Incineroar, you ready!"
Incineroar smirked and gave her the thumbs up. "Good, now let's do this!" She said, raising her arm up and activating the Z Power from her Z-Ring… as Incineroar got into position and got on one knee, smirking as he glowed while Moon did a certain pose as Incineroar then roared.
What in the world…? Sabrina thought.
It was this moment that a boxing ring came out of nowhere and Golisopod and Ariados were smack dab in the middle.
"GO! USE MALICIOUS MOONSAULT!"
Incineroar smirked wickedly as he ran over and hopped on the edge of the ring, smirking at his prey as his belt burst into flames and igniting the lower half of his body.
"DO IT!" Moon cheered, doing another pose as Incineroar jumped high into the air, and then he free fell to the ring, spreading his arms out while his whole body caught on fire… and when he landed on top of the both of them, there was a huge explosion… and when the smoke settled, the two of them were knocked out as Incineroar folded his arms with a smirk.
End BGM
"Nice one!" Moon grinned, high fiving Incineroar while Sabrina and Galvantula looked speechless, they looked at each other… and then back at Moon and Incineroar as everyone else looked totally speechless as well after they got rid of the Heartless.
"GAAAAAAH!" Guzma yelled. "GUZMA, YOU FOOL!" He yelled at himself and then glared at the Team Skull Grunt. "Release the Yungoos…"
"U-uh… y-yes sir!" He said as he released the Yungoos as it happily went over to Moon, jumping into her arms.
"Yungoos!"
"What… WHAT DID I JUST SEE?!" Sabrina yelled, finally finding her words.
"That… was a Z-Move! Only used once per battle, but it does hurt quite a lot." Rotom explained.
"Tch. Whatever… I'm out of here." Guzma said as he walked out, glaring at them all as he walked out with the Skull Grunt right behind him as Incineroar spotted something shining coming from the Treasure Chest as he curiously opened it up and pulled it out… then walked over and tapped Moon on the shoulder.
"Hmm?" She turned around as she saw what Incineroar was holding. "Oh, is that a Buginium Z?" She asked as he nodded. "Sweet!" She said, as it was absorbed into her Z-Ring. "Come on, let's take this Yungoos back to the Aether House." She turned to the others. "I'll show you where it is." She said as they walked out… but as they did, they walked right into a very old and possibly grumpy Policeman.
"So… you took down their leader, did you?" The cop muttered.
"Yeah." Moon nodded. "With the help of some friends."
"Hmm, I noticed they fell from the sky earlier. I assume they were sky jumping or something, but do I really care? Not really…"
This guy sounds depressing… Flare thought.
"But, on the bright side… at least you got that Yungoos back." He said, looking down at the Yungoos who only smiled back. "Heh, this thing must be happy to see a wretch like me."
"Uncle Nanu~!" A voice called out.
"Oh… and here comes the other noise…" He muttered as they saw a girl running up.
"Oh, Alola Acerola!" Moon greeted.
"Alola to you too, Moon!" The girl, Acerola, smiled. "Hmm? Who are you new friends?" She spotted Kimomaru. "And that is by far the ugliest Pokemon I've seen."
"…Why does everyone think I'm a Pokemon…?" Kimomaru wondered.
"Oh, it talks? That's pretty neat!" She smiled… as her smile looked so… creepily adorable. "So, who are your friends names?"
One long introduction later…
"Nice names! I'm Acerola, but I'm sure Moon already told you." She giggled and looked at the Yungoos. "Come on, let's take you back to the Aether House."
"Yungoos!"
She then looked at Nanu. "So, I guess you have a soft spot by trying to stay close to the Pokemon, huh?"
"Well… the rent's cheap… but no one would be crazy enough to be near Team Skull." He muttered.
"Admit it, you have a soft spot!"
"…Hmph, who's to say that I do?"
Acerola laughed. "Oh, you!" She giggled. "Well, we'll catch up later, alright? We're going back to the Aether House!" She said and took off with the Yungoos as the others went off after her.
"No one's asking you to…" Nanu muttered. "Hmm… Pokemon tucked inside Pokeballs… Team Skull trashing Po Town… I wonder if either enjoys the experience…" He said as he casually walked away.
Back at the Aether House…
"We're back!" Acerola grinned. "And we have more friends!"
"Well, that's great and all, but I can't keep a smile for any longer!" A boy said, trying to keep two little kids calm.
"What do you mean by that, Hau?" Moon asked.
"I mean that Lillie's gone!"
"WHAT?!" Moon and Acerola yelled.
Earlier…
"You people…!" Lillie growled, attempting to keep a Cosmog, named Nebby, safe.
"Hmph, so you're not going to disappear like earlier, huh?" A female Team Skull member, named Plumeria, asked. "Hmm, seems like the tale tales we heard about you earlier were wrong."
"That was different! Nebby and I were both in trouble! That was the reason why it used its power… so we could both escape with our lives… I know I'm not capable of much myself, but I won't let it use its power again… I'm determined to not let that happen. That's why… this time I'll do whatever I can on my own even if I get myself into trouble again."
"Yo, you know that you're in trouble right now, right? You spoiled little princess!" A Team Skull Grunt said.
Plumeria sighed in annoyance. "It's fine. There's nothing more for us to take from you. Which reminds me… maybe we're not the only ones around here who could be called Pokemon thieves. Is that what you're called? A thief?"
"Please… there's no need to hurt anyone else! I will go with you willingly, wherever you want!"
Back in the present…

"And that's pretty much how it went ever since Acerola left!" Hau said.
"What…?!" Acerola asked in shock.
Hau clenched his fists, looking down. "I'm supposed to be a trainer… but when it came down to that… Lille protected me."
"Well, that's what friends usually do." Isaac said.
"Except I did NOTHING!" Hau yelled. "I didn't do anything after Lillie willingly walked out on us! I mean, she's not even a trainer to begin with!"
Suddenly, the door opened. "Did I hear that right?!" A voice asked as they turned. "It was Lillie that took Cosmog?!"
Moon looked at him in surprise. "Gladion… you know who Lillie is?"
Gladion growled. "And you just let them leave…" He said, glaring at Hau. "Cosmog is… Lillie is… AAAARGH! I'LL SHOW YOU HOW ANGRY I AM!" He said, reaching for his Pokeballs.
Kairi sweatdropped. "Are we really doing a Pokemon battle right now…?"
"Hang on, I'll take care of this." Moon said, having Incineroar in action as he proceeded to take down Gladion's Golbat, Sneasel and Type: Null while getting a few wounds from the battle himself.
End BGM
He has a Type: Null too? Maria Jr. thought.
"Nngh…" Gladion growled. "Forgive me… that was wrong of me for doing that. I shouldn't have dragged you into a meaningless Pokemon battle like that… but I told you before! Cosmog would bring disaster to Alola… maybe this whole world even! I have to get it back from them!" He looked at Moon. "We'll leave from the ferry terminal… and you're coming with me whether you like it or not! But the question is… are you ready to go or not?"
"I'm ready for sure." Moon said and looked at everyone. "And so are they as well."
"Good." Gladion said. "Now let's go… and while on our way to the terminal, would you mind telling me who you all are?"
"Sure." Sabrina nodded.
"Good, now let's go."
"I'll stay behind and look after these kids." Acerola said.
"She can stay behind, but I'm coming too!" Hau said.
"You were coming with us anyway…" Gladion said as they took off.
Meanwhile… at the Aether Foundation…
"Madame Lusamine! We have reports that there is a trainer who has a Latias and a Kyurem, and there's also a report that another trainer who is with her has a Hoopa."
"Is that so?" Lusamine asked. "Bring them to me… otherwise, these items that I have will be just boring antiques."
"Yes ma'am! And… what do you want to do with her?"
"I'll take care of her myself." She said.
"Alright."
Lusamine walked out of her lab and into her room, where Lillie was shoved into the room. "Hmph, hello Lillie." She smirked as Lillie glared at her, clenching her fists in the process.
If you're wondering what I'm going to do with Lusamine... don't worry. I have plans for her. *chuckles very darkly*
