Pokemon Quartz Team ch 3
The dinner hall was filled as usual, autumn taking over the remnants of summer, and it was crucial that this huge guild move it's operations to Bollywood and Bollywood Caverns and get set up before winter set in and the troops arrived in the spring.
-Meanwhile...
"Dear Diary,
I wish I could join Team Quartz team. But it would be dangerous my friends say. I wish they would support me, I mean I did to them and they got the job of healing all the pokemon, which is boring. I'm going to talk to Patrick at Dinner today, I mean, I'm a piplup, how hard can it be?
Thanks Diary
Love Brooke the piplup"
The penguin closed her diary and put it in her pink knapsack. She then set out to dinner.
The dinner hall, it's tables set up on plateaus of roots thanks to the torterra, was a noisy affair. Team Quartz got the top one, so they obviously, chatted with the poor bug pokemon near the surface.
"Hey, are you guys coming with us?"
Sean asked a nincada, and a couple cocoon pokemon.
"Are we allowed?" they asked shyly.
Of course, I mean treeko made and extra table for you guys, and we get you food. Stop acting like you're weak and maybe we can let you form a subteam of Quartz. Just call it Topaz." D.W. hit the force of the topic with surprisingly accuracy.
"Really? But Skylar..."
"He's my dad, and if you come with us, you can be part of the guild affairs too."
"I guess we can..."
"No guessing. You guys should be evolved by now, but that last team of jackasses tried to kill you. You see them again, they'll be sorry that they messed with Team Quartz. Just follow us after we finish eating."
"Really? You mean it?" the bug group shouted in unison.
"Have I ever tricked anyone?" D.W. Asked.
"There was that one girl..." Sean mused
"Sean, you're absolutely the worst partner ever!" D.W. Groaned.
"I'm sorry I have a modest nature, boy, calm down!"
The rest of the table laughed at them.
" Come sit with us."
The bug group, consisting of trapinch, two nincada, a silcoon, a kanutta, anoroith, and a skorpi joined the table.
"You guys got names?" Patrick asked.
"I'm Trap, " The trapinch said,"they are Shell and Speed," he said, pointing to the nincada," that's Yellow and White" he added, referring to the kanuana and the silcoon, " and that's Armor" he pointed toward the anorith, " and that's Manacle." he ended, pointing toward the skorpi.
"Cool." Aaron said.
"You guys will be part of Aaron's squad, so right now we have Team Topaz as a subgroup under the command of Blademaster Aaron, along with Terra, a grotle, and Tropic, a Ivasaur. Aaron, you need one more person and you're set." D.W. Elaborated on the newly toon rank. And..."
The pulley that pulled up held a female piplup, a pink bow in her hair.
"Uh...Hi...My name is Brooke, and I want to join your team."
"Alright! You have any prior training?" Patrick asked.
"No..."
"Alright then, you'll be part of my squad. Did you eat yet?"
"No..."
"Help yourself!" Jolt pointed to the huge assortment of berries on the table.
"Thanks..."
The pokemon continued munching, until they went down, Followed by the soon to be Team Topaz and Tropic the Ivasaur and Terra the grotle.
"Ok, Dad, we're here." The big chamber with floating islands and clouds that swirled around was the Raquaza's office, otherwise known as the head. D.W. Was raised in this room after his father rescued an egg that had been thrown carelessly out the daycare. He had already married a Tropius, and they were not young but not old either. The tropius kept a separate room from her husband because of the tumbling of the wind during his sleep.
"Ok, so you certainly expanded your team a bit. Very well, let us began..."
"Wait, this team is gonna be a sub group of Ours!"
"You mean them?" Amylase long pointy finger pointed out the bug group.
"Yeah, they're team Topaz, and Aaron will take them under his wing."
"And you set goals son?"
"That most of them evolve along with some of us, but I don't want to be a monferno. I want to be myself or an infernape. "
"Fine as it is, son. May you accomplish these goals."
"Thank you, dad."
"Now, please sit. It is stupid to be standing."
Couches appeared behind them, and they sat."
"The reason I called you in here is because of a lot of reasons. You are our best team so far, excelling even the seniors right now. So I'd like to congratulate you on your part. The second is about transportation. The Mech team is more than happy to build you a transport, now that you've become a toon, but D.W. Wants to have the ancient artifact and ship modified from it's broken down state. I'll explain that later. The main point is, about the Gulley Troops. They are dreadful beasts, bring the reputation of pokemon down to the pits of tartarus. Study have also been mercilessly taking control of cities and doing whatever the fuck-". He paused for a moment, to keep his temper in check, then went on."they want. Now, almost all of our teams are out trying to save people, but to no avail. So, I have decided, that the Green Alliance Guild will go to war against the gulley. The militia can no longer fight it off. Whenever you are on a mission, if you bring back people, you will be rewarded. There are certain rewards for situations, but, since you are our best team, I hope that you are ready. Understood?"
"Yes sir." the team replied.
"Are you ready? These are shocking and graphic images brought in from a town called Vir. We need to take as many people from this town before the troops overtake it. This is what happened to the other city the troops overtook. It was called Glam, but now it's a sham."
Skylar flipped down a huge cloud with his claws.
A projector came from the back of the room.
"Now, currently, the Gulley are making...Horificas, or Horrors. They have not been fully developed or perfected yet. Here is the last base we took that we discovered this abomination of an experiement."
He clicked, and the whole team gasped, at the thing they called horror. It was a fetus, a bagon fetus, floating in a cylinder. On it's head was a humanoid head that resembled a Ralts head, if you ripped of it's face and rearranged it's features. It had a charizard maw, it's teath all uneven sizes and sticking out. It's legs were machoke arms twisted together, two vines came out where it's arms were, and big claws were on the skinny hands. A brain was sticking out of the back, along with a spine. It was a sickly green, and it was dead. It was a horror that these words that I described it with, couldn't show the sight. It was like someone took a nightmare from darkrai's realm and made it come to life. This oll took place for a half second before Skylar changed it, obviously seeing that everybody in the room was woozy.
"So, Your job is to find out the weakness and kill on sight. No matter what. It will eat you and grow. It is horrible, and ...I am about to kill the leader in such a violent way that no one will ever try to do something this horrible again!" His voice shook the room like thunder, and tears of fury were coming down his dragon face, dripping onto clouds and causing a storm in them. The legend was at a point of weakness, his weakness being his care for other pokemon.
"So," His fury ended abruptly, "I would lime you to obtain your airship. I have provided you with a torterra squadron to aid you. There are five, and the biggest one has living quarters. You will leave during the transfer, that's why it is imperative that you have your stuff ready because it will be relocated into your new base of operations, Quartz Range, a mountain range that extends across and archipelago of islands, and that has lots of room and defence. I hope you recruit lots of pokemon. You may also form teams now, and recruit anyone. Please...Save anyone you can."
"Yes sir."
"You may take your leave."
The pokemon shuffled out of the room, and got into bed. Everybody who was in that room had a nightmare that the Horror was chasing them, and it ended, gruesomely, with all of them screaming in the middle of the night.
