Chapter Seven

'Wow you're a heavy sleeper. Arthur! Up! Now!' Arthur shot up.

"What? I'm up! I'm up!"

'I've been calling you for ten minutes.'

"Sorry."

'Anyway, time to go find Captain Køhler.'

"We're in Slateport? Righto. Let's go." Arthur got up and stretched.

When he left the ship, Gilbert said, "My brother's a gym leader! Tell him his awesome brother says hello!"

"Ok, I'll do that." He entered the city.

'We are looking for a ship's captain, so the first logical place to look would be a shipyard.' Arceus said.

"Right. Let's find the one that should be in the city.

He didn't have to go far. The shipyard was near the beach, and was pretty much a huge warehouse. When Arthur walked in, he saw people building a huge ship.

He saw a man poring over a blueprint. "Excuse me, are you Captain Køhler?" Arthur asked.

"No, my name is Dock."

"Dock?"

"I'm pretty sure my dad didn't want me to have many friends growing up."

"Okay? Anyway, can you tell me where Captain Køhler is?"

"He's probably at the Oceanic Museum." Dock said.

"Thank you." Arthur said as he left.

He walked to the Museum. When he walked in and paid the entrance fee, only one thing caught his eye.

The place was filled with people dressed like the weirdo from Petalburg Woods.

"What is this, some kind of flash mob?" One of the people saw him, and apparently recognized him.

"You! You're the trainer from Petalburg Woods!"

"So you were that stranger? I didn't recognize you.

"I almost got fired because of you! Here, take this!" The man pushed a TM into Arthur's hands.

"What in the..?"

"You'll get yours!" With that he ran out.

"Seriously, what the bloody hell was that?" Arthur asked.

'I have absolutely no idea.' Arceus answered.

Arthur looked around. "I don't see anyone who could be Captain Køhler down here. Let's go upstairs."

After he walked upstairs, he found a man with gravity-defying blond hair in a suit.

"Excuse me, are you Captain Mathias Køhler?" Arthur asked.

"The one and only! What do you want?" He said arrogantly.

Oh no. Not another self-absorbed one, Arthur thought. "I was told to give this to you by the President of the Devon Corporation."

Two of the people from the main room of the museum came upstairs. "Stop! Give us those parts!"

Arthur mentally facepalmed. "Can't anything be easy?" He mumbled. "Who are you?" He asked.

"We are members of Team Magma! Our boss wants those parts! So shut up and give 'em here!" One of the shady characters advanced toward them.

"Now, that isn't very nice." Arthur said, pulling out Mudkip's pokeball. "Let's play fair, shall we?"

"Fair isn't our strong point, but let's try it just this once." The person said, pulling out a pokeball of his own.

As Arthur sent out Mudkip, his opponent sent out a Numel. Mudkip used Water Gun, and the Numel was defeated.

"What? This is a disaster! The boss is going to be furious! How did this happen?"

"Git. Know you nothing of type matchups?" Arthur said.

"What's a type matchup?"

Arthur facepalmed for real this time. "I didn't know that there were such morons in this world."

"Wimp. I'll take care of this." The first grunt's companion said. This one sent out a Zubat.

"Zubat! Use Leech Life!" Mudkip had some of his energy drained, but nothing happened to Zubat because he hadn't been damaged yet.

"Mudkip! Water Gun!" This defeated Zubat, simply because Mudkip was far more powerful than him.

Next, the grunt sent in another Numel. Another Water Gun and the pokemon was defeated.

"I lost too? Now we're in for it!" He yelled.

"We didn't count on some meddling kid being here!"

Another man came in. He had red hair and looked more professional than the others, with a red and black suit. "I came to see what was taking so long to get some parts, and you wimps are held up by some kid?"

"I'm right here! And I'm not a kid!" Arthur said. "Who do you think you are?"

"I am Maxie of Team Magma. Why do you feel the need to mess up our plans?"

"Because you're trying to steal things that I've traveled long and hard to deliver!"

"All life exists on land. Team Magma is trying to expand the world's landmass."

"That's insane! What about the water types?" Arthur said.

"What about them? There are more other types that live on land. What we are doing is a magnificent thing." Maxie said proudly.

"No it isn't!"

"You are young. Your inability to understand our noble cause can't be helped."

"I'm not that young! I'll have you know that I am 18 years old!"

` "If you impede us ever again, you'll see no mercy from us! Keep that firmly in mind!"

"Are you threatening me?" Arthur asked angrily.

"Farewell!" All members of Team Magma left the building.

"What is your name?" Captain Køhler asked.

"I am Arthur Kirkland."

"That was an intense situation there, wasn't it?" The captain laughed. "Thanks for keeping the parts from getting stolen!"

"You're welcome. Now take them."

"Thanks! Now I have to set out on an ocean floor expedition soon. Bye!" Captain Køhler left.

"Well, I guess my work here is done." Arthur left the museum to head to the next town.

So! I hope you enjoyed the chapter! I didn't want to give a Hetalia character to Maxie because he's not awesome enough for one. Don't expect Archie to have one either. Please review! It might make me update faster! Please review!
