Cherry came back and climbed back into the water in her underwear, making her husband stare at her. "Well, I don't know what that's about... But they're alive and hopefully we can-" she looked to Forte. "WILL YOU STOP STARING AT ME!? I'M FREEZING!"
Forte blinked to her. "Okay..." he said, obviously not listening to what she said.
Cherry growled, taking his tail coat, then wrapped herself in it, making him frown.
"Get her back in the boat." Mo said.
Forte pulled Cherry in. "A-A-Are you alright, Cerise?"
"I'm fine..." Cherry said a little soft for a change. "I don't know what the heck that wave was... If they don't get off that boat soon, they'll fall, crash, and die... "
"Let's follow them." Atticus said.
"Charles, GO!" Cherry commanded.
"How about please?" Forte looked to her.
"How about I open your rib cage?" Cherry threatened.
"Going, going!" Forte nodded, rowing over for them to get closer to the island.
"Never going to get on her bad side," Atticus said. "And best of all, we haven't been encountered Frank yet."
The merpeople met up together.
"We haven't found them." Urchin said.
"Neither have we... I'm starting to think maybe I was just seeing things..." Melody sounded like she wanted to give up on their search.
"Would that help us find them?" Vincent said, while pointing to a water like tornado going to an island.
"What is that thing, Mom...?" Melody whispered.
"I-I don't know..." Ariel muttered, a little scared. "I-It can't be from Daddy..."
"Oh, poor Akito, Estelle and Felicity, this must be dreadful for them!" Eloise cried.
Vincent began to follow the water-like tornado to find out if his gut was right. Melody went after him and so did Eloise.
"Kids, look out!" Urchin yelped.
The water-like tornado then sent the boat flying to an island where a shrine was at. There was a Slowbro who appeared to have a shell crown on its head. He spoke to the group, pointing somewhere that would help guide them on their journey.
"He can talk?" Ash and Emi asked in shock.
"Pika Pika." Pikachu reminded his trainer of the spheres he currently had.
"Oh, right." Ash took them out as they glowed with their elements inside.
"Pikachu!" the yellow Pokemon squeaked and scampered up the steps.
Ash, Akito, and Emi all followed Pikachu. Pikachu led them to another stone temple that was above the snowy grounds.
Ash looked instinctively inside the mouth, expecting the final sphere to be in there, but it wasn't. He looked further though and saw a volcano in the distance however that had a holder by the window. "Fire Island..." he placed the sphere in, then looked ahead again.
Akito put this sphere in it this time. "Lightning Island..."
"So, you're Ash and Akito?" the Slowbro came right behind the boys, startling them.
"Yikes!" Akito said.
"You're both one treasure short." Slowbro told them.
"Yeah, we know, but..." Ash was still shocked about the talking Pokemon, he knew Meowth longer, so another talking Pokemon was just shocking to him. "How'd you know our names?"
The birds were heard again, screeching and using their abilties against each other once more.
"Uh-oh, looks like they're headed this way." Akito said.
"I am not liking those oiseaux very much anymore..." Felicity grunted.
Ash rushed to the edge. "CUT IT OUT!"
The wave came back up, splashing and hitting the birds.
"Something's coming." Akito said.
The tornado water disappeared, revealing a Pokemon that resembled an otter and a seagull. Just like Urchin described from earlier.
"I can't believe it..." Melody whispered.
"It's a Lugia..." Emi gasped.
"It's amazing." Akito said.
Lugia hummed to the birds as it was up in the air.
"The sound..." Misty spoke.
Melody took out her shell instrument, wondering if she should play it or not.
"Wow." Estelle said.
"Cerise, what is that thing?" Forte asked as they saw it too.
"A Lugia," Cherry folded her arms. "They're very majestic Pokemon... As far as I've seen, they do not evolve from anything before or after..."
"Wow, it's magnificent," Atticus said before sensing something. "Oh, no, I sense that something very evil is coming."
"Yep..." Cherry nodded. "He's a Pokemon collector..."
"You know of him?" Forte asked.
"I was meeting an old friend in town with her two children, HE wanted to marry me..." Cherry said firmly.
"He dodged a bullet." Forte mumbled.
"Yeah," Atticus said. "But it's something more evil."
"I can't stand him..." Cherry grumbled.
"And I can see why." Atticus whispered.
"It's no doubt that he'll want that Lugia... Selfish twit..." Cherry's fangs seemed to appear as her eyes turned from chocolate brown to a hellish red.
"I also sense a more evil being coming." Atticus said.
"What, did I forget Cerise's birthday?" Forte chuckled ominously.
The water tornado came again as the mer family were swimming along, unknowingly by the boat where the parents of the adventurers were.
"No, it seems like something so evil that we should possibly go and get the kids right away." Atticus said.
"Atticus...?" Ariel whispered and turned her head.
Mo hugged Atticus, some tears streaming down her face, she sounded miserable because her children were in danger.
"Uh-oh, I sense something coming right from under us." Atticus said.
The flying Pokemon still used their powers against each other and it looked like a long lasting war. There was a helicopter shown as they fought with their elements hitting the ground, but never injuring anyone. The three ancient bird Pokemon were now fighting Lugia.
A pathway was cleared through the ice and there came a stampede of various Pokemon. There was even a flock of flying bird-like Pokemon now coming in like Earth birds flying south for the winter. Everyone could see from their view of the snowy cliff from where they were with the talking and wise Slowbro.
"It looks like a grand battle royale..." Felicity commented from her point of view.
The battle was getting intense as all three ancient bird Pokemon were attacking Lugia.
"There's only one hope," Slowbro spoke. "The Chosen Ones will bring the treasures to help the one's great party."
"But the legend has said that someone will fail it." Felicity insisted while Melody nodded in agreement.
"Then thus, we must turn to Ash and Akito." Slowbro looked to the chosen boys.
"But how are we going to find the Chosen Two if we don't even know where to look?" Melody then asked.
"The Earth shall turn to Ash and Akito!" Misty piped up.
"Ash and Akito?" Emi and Tracey asked.
"We're the chosen two?" Akito and Ash asked in unison.
Lugia was then attacked and fell straight down to the ocean and the spot it crashed down in was blocked up by the three ancient bird Pokemon's attack and they went on to attack each other. Pikachu nodded to that. Ash and Akito looked very sick about saving the world like this.
"We know you guys can do it." Emi looked faithful to her brother and new friend.
Cherry, Atticus, Mo, and Forte screamed as they fell out of their boat from the heavy splash.
"What was that?" Atticus asked.
"Darn Pokemon..." Cherry mumbled.
Forte came to her, trying to keep her up in the water. "This brings back memories..."
"Ah yes, the day I could've been dead, but instead, you decided to make me live forever." Cherry smirked actually, sounding sweet about that memory.
"Oh, are the children okay?" Mo was still feeling more worried than when her own mother back home was concerned about her being out late at night because she was kidnapped.
"We better go and check on them." Atticus said.
Ariel swam over to her cousin. "Atticus... It's me... Oh, hello Cherry and Maestro."
"Hello, Ariel..." Cherry greeted after her moment with her husband.
Melody came over too, she did not know Atticus, but he looked familiar. "You look like that little boy I found!" she pointed to him.
"Did he have a bandanna on his head?" Atticus asked.
"Yes," Melody nodded, then gestured to Mo's red one. "Kinda like that..."
"It had to be Akito..." Mo whispered softly.
"That was one of our sons." Atticus said.
"You have sons?" Ariel asked her cousin.
"Yes, and a daughter who is Akito's twin, her name is Estelle." Mo explained.
"You must be Monique." Eric had heard about her from his family members.
"Please, call me Mo." the woman preferred.
"Um, if I could interrupt..." Cherry spoke up. "OUR CHILDREN ARE GOING TO GET KILLED!"
"Oh, right, quick, up the stairs!" Atticus called out.
"Oh, I hope they'll be okay..." Ariel was frightened.
Cherry, Forte, Atticus, and Mo got onto the land and ran up the stairs. Cherry took off Forte's coat and got herself dressed.
