The action begins here.

Sea: Drama! Pain! Angst!

Me: This is a story about pokemon not you.

Sea:….I know.

Me: Well I hope you like it.

Sea: Rolyn owns nothing.

Wood: Failure

May flew quickly and the closer she got to the center of the region the more she could see explosions and hear the screams of people trying to escape. If this was part of her destiny…she wished she wouldn't have to go through with it. Her face was sullen as her heart lowered into a pit of despair. She didn't want this to happen to another place again. She wasn't able to save her own home but she saved Misty and Ash's. She just hoped her winning streak would last.

As she neared she noticed a two different colored flames collide together. One white, one green. May's eyes widened and she created a greater gust that sent her propelling forwards at top speed until she was hovering overhead at the battle that was completely uneven. Misty and Ash were fighting off more soldier's than any one man could handle and Drew had his hands filled with a boy who was wearing a fire region outfit similar to the one Drew wore before he exchanged them for water region clothing.

May was shocked to see that Drew was actually fighting a person from his own region; someone who could possibly rescue him from the clutches of the Ping Heng. May shook her head as she came in for a landing. Becky and Max quickly followed her while Dawn and her mother began to catch up on foot. Becky and Max immediately went to aid Misty and Ash.

Becky whirled her hands around in circular motions making the surrounding air swirl around her before jumping in the air and pushing her palms out as she landed. Seven soldiers where blown back and crashed into a building. Max imitated Becky's move but with less strength considering his age. He managed to get rid or four soldiers.

Brendan smirked as May landed behind Drew. She whirled her glider around and behind her back making it turn back to its staff form and May stood with it at stand by. Drew glanced over his shoulder but not long enough for Brendan to get an opening on him.

"Go away May!" He ordered sternly as he tried to attack Brendan with his fire whips.

"This is my fight Drew; my destiny. Not yours." May said simply.

"I'm glad you're willingly heading towards your death." Brendan muttered as he launched a stream of white fire past Drew and towards May. May twirled her staff letting the air around it stop the attack and while she did so Drew watched. Brendan found his chance and struck Drew with a large ball of fire.

May gasped as Drew fell to the ground. After what she learned today she understood that her enemy wasn't really who she thought it was.

"Drew!" May cried running to him. He sat up and put up a hand to stop her as he held his torso in pain. The burn was rather large and it went all the way up his neck only slightly reaching his chin. He winced and sucked in some air through his teeth.

"No you need to do this." He ordered glaring at her in the way he did when they first met. May smiled despite the fact and looked up just as Brendan was about to strike her. Her eyes widened but out of nowhere a plank of wood struck Brendan in his back, making him fall forward.

"Nobody messes with my friends!" Dawn yelled as she got back into her stance. Her mother was also in a stance and out of pure rage Brendan jumped to his feet and sent a stream of fire in their direction. Johanna used her quick reacting skills and quickly lowered a wooden building before her and her daughter letting the fire hit that instead. Both her and Dawn began to pull back their arms and flick their hands forward letting burning pieces of wood fly at anyone who was from the fire region.

May used Brendan's distraction and jumped into the air, letting her staff cut through the air. A wind blade propelled at Brendan's turned back and hit him sending him flying forward and falling to the ground. Once he was down she turned to Misty.

"Misty! Help Drew!" May ordered. Misty nodded and quickly went to pull away the injured boy from the battle at hand so that he wasn't caught in the middle. May felt at ease now that he was out of harm's way and turned back to Brendan who looked ready to kill.

"You are going to wish you didn't do that." He muttered as his fists flamed dangerously. May snorted and rolled her eyes at him.

"Are you gonna make me?" She retorted pointing her staff at him. He smirked and craned his neck to the side.

"You have an attitude, how charming. Too bad you're as good as dead." He said as he charge at her. He clawed at her with his flaming hands but May managed to avoid everything. That was what Mikiko taught her; evade until offense is necessary.

Brendan kicked sending a blast of fire at her which she jumped over to avoid. He punched and she avoided again jumping farther away. She placed her hand on the ground to stop her from skidding too far. Brendan didn't like when people played games with him and she was certainly playing games. He would not be made a fool of. He looked at May who was waiting for his next move and then he glanced at the others. He noticed Max and Becky who were from Vayu as well and could quickly tell that she had some relation to Max. Becky looked nothing like her.

He smirked as an idea came to mind and he charged towards Max and Becky. May tried to intercept him but he sent a blast of fire to occupy her. He snatched up Max quickly, pulling the small boys hands behind his back so that he couldn't use them to manipulate. Max wasn't as skilled as May and Becky was to use his feet or his nose.

"Max!" May cried as she was about to run at Brendan to get her brother back; the others stopped what they were doing to help. Brendan snapped his fingers and his hand lit up with white fire. He held it close to Max who struggled in his tight grip and May stopped in her tracks.

"That's not a smart idea Ping Heng…or do you want to see him charred?" Brendan asked. May felt her rage boil within her but she lowered her staff nonetheless. Brendan smirked, satisfied that he had the world's only hope at his mercy.

"What do you want?" May asked in a harsh but shaky tone.

"Nothing much, just the rest of the talismans. Word has come that the earth talisman has been found by the fire region so you have the last ones that we need." Brendan explained. May glared at him knowing that she had the last three talismans that were needed for Giovanni to get all control. Give up the world…or give up her brother.

May lowered her head as she reached into her pocket and pulled out three talismans; the wood talisman Max had given her earlier since May had asked for it (She didn't understand why he would shove it in his pocket), the water talisman, and last the air talisman. She swallowed the lump that formed in her throat and threw the talismans at Brendan's feet. He took them and smirked not letting go of Max.

"I believe you're one short." He said. May looked at him shocked. She only had three because she has only been to three places. "Either I get all the talismans or you don't get him back…"

"I don't…" May began but was cut off.

"Here! Tell my father he can have it back." Drew said as the fire talisman was thrown to one of the fire region soldiers. May looked surprised for a moment and Drew avoided eye contact with her.

"It was a pleasure doing business with you…but I'm not really that fair when it comes to my end of the deal." Brendan said and before anyone could comprehend what was happening Brendan's hand flared and in one swift movement a blast of fire struck Max and sent him flying. It seemed to happen in slow motion for May and as she heard her brother scream in pain before falling to the ground motionless she thought she was going to die from the inside out.

"MAX!" Becky screamed.

May didn't say a single thing. As she stared at her brother on the ground she could feel herself slipping away. Her head pounded horribly and her body began to shake. She let out a scream as she fell to her knees, still convulsing harshly. May could no longer see or hear anything. The only thing she saw was Haruka and then another girl about her age that looked like her mother and then a woman that looked like a younger version of Mikiko. Many people flashed before May's eyes as she clenched them tight.

"Aw, at least you got him back." Brendan said as he began to walk towards May. The others were occupied with Max and Drew was too injured to help her. She looked helpless crouched on the ground. "And you were so cute too. I hate to destroy such a pretty face."

As soon as he was standing before her he lifted a flaming hand and brought it down to strike her but his hand was caught before it could touch her. He stared at her in shock and looked down at her to see her head still down but her grip on his wrist was tight. He tried using his other hand but the same thing happened. He didn't even see her move.

May's head snapped up and her eyes were glowing white. Brendan gasped as her grip on his hands tightened and she stood to her feet.

"You will pay." She said. Her voice was distorted and mixed with other people. You could recognize one as Haruka.

The wind began to pick up and clouds began to cover and darken the area. May's hair whipped around and clothes flew in the breeze.

Drew stared in shock as did the rest as May pushed Brendan with the enhancement of her powers he flew back and went skidding along the ground. May raised into the air, a blank expression on her face. You could see the river of tears that streamed down her cheeks.

"Oh no…" Becky whispered. "This is only supposed to happen with a talisman." She said. Ash had Max in his arms and Misty stood by him.

"What's wrong with her!?" Drew cried as he tried to shield his face from the dirt that was being picked up from the intense winds.

"I don't know…" Becky whispered shaking her head. "W-We have to leave now! May is going to destroy everything!" She added as she watched buildings break apart and get caught in May's wrath. Becky ran with Ash, Misty, Dawn and Johanna but Drew stayed where he was. Fire region soldiers scattered and ran.

"For what you have done to my brother…you will pay." May hissed as her eyes narrowed and she brought a hand before her. It was nearly clenched but not into a fist. Brendan's eyes widened. He thought this only happened when the Ping Heng had a talisman in her possession.

May lifted her hands and the wood that had come from destroyed buildings rose at her command. She swiped her hands back and the wood turned into wooden spikes. She flicked her hand forward and the spikes were propelled at Brendan. He put up a wave of fire that burnt the spikes and May simply shook her head.

She waved her hand forward and the earth followed her movement and mimicked it. It waved until it hit the fire region boy and sent him flying. May then streamed some water around her arm and wrapped it around his body before her could hit the ground.

She reeled him in to her so that he was face to face with her.

"Leave." She growled. With that said May moved her arm, the water followed her command and flung Brendan all the way out of the region and into the ocean next to his ship.

Although May had successfully got rid of the threat she still caused a great hurricane as she lowered to the ground. She hovered above the ground and the winds began to pick up. May's body began to glow brightly nearly blinding Drew who was still watching. Once the glow faded he could see that her clothes were now torn up. He also noticed the markings that had appeared on her skin. Glowing wind markings wrapped around her arms until it spiraled on the top of her hands. The same with her legs except the spirals were on the top of feet. On her forehead were three spirals that conjoined together and seemed to go into May's hair and down her neck and into her back.

May was causing complete chaos. Projectiles and dirt was flying everywhere as the winds picked it up. Right then May let out a loud scream and the winds whipped ferociously.

"It's my fault!" She cried. Drew stood to his feet, wincing at the raw burn on him. He slowly made his way over to May who had her fists clenched and was still hovering above the ground.

"May! You need to stop! You're gonna destroy the region!" Drew yelled over the winds as he got closer. May didn't seem to hear him as she kept saying it was her fault.

"My fault…"

Drew fought against the wind and got close to her. He reached up and grabbed one of her hands. She snapped around with her face contorted with pure rage and hate. She waved her free hand at him and sent him back. He rolled and cringed as a large shock of pain overwhelmed him but he knew he couldn't give up. He stood to his feet and limped his way back over to her, grabbing her hand once again. Her tear stained cheeks made his heart drop.

"May, you need to calm down! You need to be alright." He ordered. May still glared at him harshly as if telling him to leave her alone but he didn't let go. He pulled her down so that her feet were touching the ground and she was facing him.

"It's all my fault." She growled in her distorted voice.

"No its not." Drew said pulling her into s tight embrace. "May…please be alright. You've gotta be okay." Drew whispered into her ear as he rubbed her back. The winds around them slowly died down before completely stopping. May let out a sigh as her glowing markings faded to a simple blue color and she clenched her eyes shut as she returned to normal. She began to cry openly and returned the hug, relaxing in his arms. She buried her faced in Drew's chest as she sobbed.

"I-It's over. They have all the talismans…I've failed…." She muttered before her body went limp and she passed out.

Intense, right?

Sea: Whoa…

May: Whoa is right…

Sea: Double whoa…

May: Triple whoa…

Me: Review Pweez!

Preview...

"Is he going to be okay..."

"Haruka told me our team would be seperated...now I understnad why."

"I have a whole new reason for being here and i will fullfill my destiny."

"Well...onward to the earth region."
