Disclaimer: Gee…I wish I had Pokemon…Then, this world would be MINE!!!!!

Honou: But you don't so sucks for you!! =)

Ultima: OBJECTION!!!! (Blows Honou away…)

Ultima: With the mysterious circumstances under who the strange men at Lake Acuity, as well as the stranger at the end of Chapter 3 prompts many questions…

Honou: Just get on with the chapter! -_-

Ultima: So now, Chapter 4 will maybe entertain you. I hope it does, but if it doesn't, then you are welcome to criticize me as badly as you want.

Honou(Suddenly interested): Alright, I'm gonna spam how bad you are as an author!!!

Ultima: Don't push your luck kid… So, let's begin Chapter 4.

Pokemon Diamond & Pearl: Adventures of Time and Space

Chapter 4: It's Shinx to the Rescue!!!

Back at Professor Rowan's lab…

Dia, Kuro, and Professor Rowan were all inside the lab. "So, how was the investigation in Lake

Verity?"

Kuro interrupted. "I gave him the Pokedex like you asked me to Gramps."

"Ah you did, did you? Well, let me help you both learn how to use it then. Whenever you both

encounter Pokemon, you they will be recorded in the Pokedex."

"Excuse me, Prof. Rowan, but there was something interesting at Lake Verity. According to

what I saw, there were many strange men there. They were all dressed in spacesuits, and they

looked like they were looking for something."

This caught Rowan's attention pretty quickly! "Who were these men? What were they trying to

do?"

Dia became quickly suspicious. "Professor, you sound like you are hiding something about the

Lake."

"Hmmm!? Well of course not!! There is nothing there…nothing…"

Kuro also became suspicious as well. "Old man, you are hiding something!!"

Professor Rowan stayed silent for a while. Then, he said, "All right, if you 2 should know, there

are strange stories about a special Pokemon that exists in that very lake. However, this special

Pokemon is very elusive, so not many people have seen it. And now, from what Dia told me, I

think that those strange men were looking for it."

Dia and Kuro stayed silent as well. Finally, Dia answered. "Then we will protect that Pokemon.

For the lake and the Pokemon around it!!"

Professor Rowan looked grave. "Apparently, they have already taken it."

"WHAAAAAT!!!!!!" Kuro exclaimed. He then bolted out of the door and started running

towards Lake Verity again.

"Wait!!! There's no use! It's already gone!" But Kuro was already out of sight. Rowan sighed.

"I should follow him. Those men might appear there again." Dia then began pursuing Kuro.

Rowan looked on as they ran towards Lake Verity. "Be safe…Both of you…"

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Kuro and Dia reached Lake Verity again. "Professor Rowan was right. The lake is totally

different from yesterday."

It was true. Lake Verity looked more somber than usual. It was devoid of movement and life.

Dia motioned him to be quiet. They both sneaked into the bushes. Dia then stated

quietly, "There is someone near…"

There were more of those men in spacesuits. They were in a bulk, and in the middle of them was

a red haired girl, who appeared to be the leader.

"Mission complete…Master." the girl stated.

"Excellent, Mars…You have done well. Now that we have Mesprit, the other lakes await…But

for now, I have another mission for you…"

The rest of the transmission was muffled. Soon, Mars motioned the rest of the troops to exit the

area. Two of the grunts then entered. "Commander Mars, it appears that some of the wild

Pokemon are attacking!"

Mars just replied calmly, "It is just wild Pokemon. What is the problem?"

"They are very upset, it appears, and they have begun to attack our vehicles!!!"

Dia and Kuro watched on and silently traversed through the bushes and out of the lake.

Outside of the lake, many wild Pokemon gathered and blocked the entrance. At the front of the

crowd, was a black and blue catlike Pokemon. Mars and her grunts were surrounded. In the front

was a catlike Pokemon. "Glameow!! Use Growl!!" It obeyed as it gave a great Growl into the

crowd of Pokemon. "We have to help them!!!" Kuro exclaimed. "What can we do?? There are

too many of the grunts, and that Glameow looks

tough!!" Dia argued. "It doesn't matter!!" Kuro shouted, as he ran out towards the grunts. "Arrgh,

you idiot!!!" Dia ran after him.

"Hey, you space dorks!!!! Stop messing with the Pokemon!!!!" Kuro then chose out Starly and

Chimchar, respectively. Dia chose out Piplup, as he plan out their next move. Glameow and a

Wurmple were at their front. "Who do you think you punks are?" Mars said. "Glameow, use

Scratch. Wurmple, String Shot!!

"Chimchar, Ember!!!! Starly, Tackle!!!" Chimchar shot out flames and Starly gave a full power

Tackle.

Dia and Piplup were against a grunt and his Cascoon. "Hmph punk, you are going down!!

Cascoon, Tackle!!"

"Piplup, let's use Pound!!!!" Piplup dashed at the Cascoon with arms outstretched. Cascoon

gave a Tackle, and both attacks made them bounce against each other. "Piplup, use Bubble!!!!"

Piplup gave out a forced Bubble attack and it hit Cascoon hard. Cascoon then fainted.

* * * * * * * * *

Kuro and his Pokemon were in tougher situations. The Glameow and Wurmple proved

to do worse than they looked. Starly had already fainted and Chimchar was badly hurt. Kuro

gritted his teeth. "So, is this it boy? That's the best you can do?"

Dia came in. "Kuro, let's switch!!!" Kuro saw him and saw that he had no choice. "You better

get her."

Dia and Piplup then came into the field. "Let's play!" Dia shouted. Piplup stood firm.

"Hahahahaha!!! You can't beat me with just one Pokemon!! I have 2!"

Dia then shouted, "Piplup, Bubble!!" Piplup let out its powerful Bubble attack. It hit Wurmple,

square on the head. Wurmple fainted quickly. Mars just smiled. "You're better than you look.

Glameow, use Scratch!!!"

"Piplup, dodge and use Bubble!!" It used its Bubble attack again, but Glameow dodged it.

Just then, the catlike Pokemon from before appeared. "Shinx!!!" it shouted. It gave a Tackle

attack at Glameow!! Glameow got hit and fainted at that!! "What a strong Pokemon!!!" Dia

exclaimed. Mars just looked at the Shinx, before she shouted to her grunts. "Retreat!!" Mars

and her grunts ran off, but not before she looked at both Kuro and Dia saying, "I'll have my

revenge!!!"

The Shinx looked at Dia and looked happy. "Shinx!!!" Then, it charged at Piplup. "What the!!!

Piplup, dodge!!" Piplup barely dodged it. Then, Dia understood that Shinx wanted a battle.

"Piplup, use Bubble!" Piplup let out another Bubble attack. Shinx dodged, but not before Piplup

got close. "Now, Piplup. Pound!!!!" Piplup hit Shinx hard, and Shinx fell to the ground. Dia

then threw out a Pokeball. Shinx was engulfed in light, before it entered the Pokeball. The

Pokeball fidgeted around, and then finally stopped. Dia held up the Pokeball. Kuro came up to

him. "Congratulations!!!" Dia just smiled. "This is just the beginning, I guess." With that, both

Trainers walked to Sandgem Town, as the stars in the night sky sparkled.

Ultima- So, how was it??

Honouxryuu- …I'm pretty sure that was OK, but you should have given me a bigger role you know.

Ultima-Right!!! I'll do that next time!!! So now that we got that out of the way, please

review my story. And if you are bored, read Honouxryuu's Adventure of the Three

Swordsman or Vimiku's Legends of Brawl. And be sure not to miss my next chapter,

Blaze! Chimchar's Fiery Spirit Awakens!!
