Hey everybody! Handing out COOKIES time! YAY!

Cookie to... Diamond Desires for getting one question correct! Don't feel so bad! Nice guesses by the way!

Cookies with chocolate chips to... Princess Amethyst for getting 2 questions correct!

Cookies with chocolate chips and almond nuts to... DemigodWitch96, Big Big Misty Fan, Airyfairyy and PrincessOfDestiny14 for getting 2 and a half questions correct! (Some of you got half mark for a few questions... so yeah, I just add them all together.)

Cookies with chocolate chips, almond nuts and peanut butter to... Missy Platina and xXkatlagXx for getting 3 questions correct! (Actually the both of you got 2 questions half correct.)

I think most of you guys got caught in the first question... To say the truth, it is more difficult than the rest of the questions. Plus! The answer regarding that question is found by reading what both May and the Commander said or thought.

IMPORTANT!

I'll be adding in Pokémon from Generation 5 in this story now. So some Pokémon the Sliver Masks and Maple Sisters are using are from Generation 5. So... Yeah. I just thought I'll run that by you guys first.

Disclaimer: DarkRoseDiamond does not own Pokémon! And I actually enjoyed reading all of you guys' reviews like I always do! HAHAS. Okay. That was random.

P.S. To Airyfairyy: Happy late birthday!

The air powers that the characters

have in this story is inspired by:

Chapter 8: D- Dr- Dra- Drama

(With the Maple Sisters...) (Claire's POV)

"As I was saying, this concert has over 50 000 people going, so you guys MUST do a good job!" I said. The Maple Sisters all yawned. I glared at them.

"And you guys will have to perform the song with Boyztown!" I said happily.

"Sure!" May say cheerfully.

"..." Amelia was speechless. Come to think of it, she seems to have her head in the clouds these few days.

"AWW! BUT WHY?" Misty and Leaf shouted, jumping up from their seats. "AWW! But why NOT?" I asked playfully, poking out my tongue. "You guys took the time to rehearse the song and to do the video." I said.

"..." Misty and Leaf have been rendered speechless.

'Claire has been saying this for the past few hours!' May thought, stifling a yawn.

"So girls, I'm sure you guys will want to search your closet, make sure your Pokémon get enough rest, run through your routine again... so on and so forth. So, you are now dismissed!" I said.

'Gee... She sure sounds like a teacher.' Dawn thought.

"Oh shucks! Today's my turn to feed the Pokémon and I'm so late for it!" May yelled as she looked at the time. "Hopefully by the time you get there Munchlax did not eat up all of the food!" Misty called.

After May has gone, Dawn spoke up, "You know, I don't think that May and Brendan are a good match." "Same here. But we have to be happy for her." Misty said.

"Somehow I got a feeling that May really loves Drew. Not Brendan." Amelia said quietly. Dawn and Misty asked in unison, "What do you mean by that?"

Amelia looked down and mumbled, "You'll know soon enough."

(Amelia's POV)

The main door to the mansion suddenly opened. Her sisters gasped in shock when they saw the person. But not me. I was the one who called him over.

"Hey my daughters!" Norman said as all of us rushed to tackle him into a hug.

"Meet me at my room okay? I have a very important matter to discuss." Norman said.

"Hmm... I wonder what he wants to discuss about." Dawn wondered. "How would we know? Let's go to his room to find out." Misty said.

All of us nodded.

Once we are in the room, Norman begun speaking.

"Now you see girls, although throughout the years your powers have grown greater, it has not reached the final stage yet. What is the final stage you may ask? Well, let's take a look at this power point slide."

Misty

Create water guns, bubbles, whirlpools, waterfall and waves.

Creating air bubbles to breathe underwater.

Change the surroundings to underwater.

Make it rain or a thunderstorm.

A thunderbolt.

May

Fireballs and flamethrowers.

Make the atmosphere up to boiling point.

Absorbing warmth.

Create smoke, to escape or hide.

Make the surroundings turn into a field.

Use flames to create some, mental illusion. (Similar to one of the team magma members in the Ruby and Sapphire arc of the Pokémon special manga.)

Dawn

Turn temperature to freezing cold.

Ice balls and ice beams.

Transform surroundings into snow city.

Blizzards and snowstorm.

Create mist, to escape or hide.

Earthquakes and deep fissures.

Amelia

Immobilizing.

Mind reading and heart reading.

Levitate.

Know where someone is instantly.

Seeing the future.

Making people sleep and forgetting things.

Making people temporarily blind.

"Wow... There are still some things we can't do!" May breathe. "The reason why I called all of you here is because Amelia has managed to read the future." Norman said.

"So? What is our future?" Dawn asked excitedly.

"Well, since she haven't train her power of reading the future, she is only able to tell that something bad will happen during the MBSR concert. So you girls better be on your guard. We can all talk about training to gain new powers later." Norman said.

Dawn and Misty said through telepathy, "So that's what you meant."

My sisters and I were all busy talking about how we will react if an enemy suddenly appears.

Little did we know that we shouldn't train later. We should've started already.

With Boyztown... (Normal POV)

"In conclusion, we are going to perform these songs. Run through your routine tonight, practise the duet song with the Maple Sisters, eat well, sleep well and rest well... Etcetc." Lance said, sipping a cup of coffee.

"What do you expect us to do? Call the Maples and do a phone rehearse?" Ash demanded to know.

"Hey... that's a good idea!" Lance said, his eyes lit up. "Do that. And Gary, you must prepare to do your debut song. Remember, you are the surprise of tomorrow's night."

"Why must Gary be kept as a surprise anyway?" Paul asked, flipping through a magazine.

"Because we will have another member on our team! We cannot let the other groups know because an extra member, we can seize the opportunity to be the top band!" Lance exclaimed.

"Ohh..." Drew said dryly, feeding Roserade.

"Oh gosh... I'm sweating buckets..." Gary complained, swiping sweat off his forehead.

"Ehh... Now that you mentioned it, I'm feeling hot as well. Not to mention, perspiring more." Justin grumbled.

The manager and band sat there for a while in silence. Doing their own stuffs.

Until...

"Lance? Did you even on the air conditioner?" Paul suddenly asked. Lance checked the remote and gulped. He faced the five boys, staring at him accusingly.

"I'll go and have a shower!"

Lance shouted as he bolted out of the door. With the boys in pursuit.

Oh Boyztown, enjoy having fun, chasing each other, laughing and playing a fool. Because soon, you'll get to enjoy no more.

With Rock IT... (Normal POV)

"You heard what our dearest manager said, rock tomorrow's concert. To show that Rock IT will always be the best band!" Brendan said, pumping a fist in the air.

"You know that's not just what we are going to do..." Kenny said.

"Oh, you mean that is not just what Barry and Rudy is going to do." Brendan corrected with a sly smirk.

"YEAH! Rudy and I are all right and ready to rock!" Barry yelled excitedly.

"Not really. We have to finalize things. We can't afford to make a single mistake tomorrow." Rudy gently reminded.

"Right... Let's continue planning!" Barry yelled.

With the Sliver Babes... (Normal POV)

"Ohmigosh!" Honey squealed as she rushed around her room. "I found the perfect clothes for tomorrow! FINALLY!"

The Sliver Babes all crowd around Honey to look at her choices. Pink tube, gold jacket and black skinny jeans. Megan nodded approvingly.

"Good for you! I'm still deciding between this tank top plus the bike shorts and jacket or the mini dress!" Cornelia whined.

"The first option. The mini dress will make you look like a beach whale!" Leaf teased, popping a lollipop in her mouth.

"Thanks." Cornelia commented sarcastically. "Oh yeah, we are all wearing boots. And besides, how are you supposed to run in a mini dress? " Candy asked, picking fishnet stockings, black shorts, white tank and a black crop jacket.

"Good point. After all, we do need to run from our fans." Apple said, as she stepped back to look at her choice of a off the shoulder apple green top and faded denim shorts.

All of the Sliver Babes exchanged a look. They all caught the unspoken message.

The next day... With the Maple Sisters... (Normal POV)

"How do I look?" Dawn squealed, twirling around to show off her outfit of a white halter top, bubblegum pink short shorts and black 3 inches heels.

"Nice! How do I look?" May asked, applying minimal amount of makeup. "Red is your colour! So... yeah! You look awesome!" Amelia compliment. May's outfit; red and black stripe turtleneck, black short shorts, fishnet stockings and black boots, really looks as if it was made for her.

"I'm so looking forward to seeing Brendan again!"May cheerfully said.

Misty ignored May's comment while Dawn forced a smile and said, "I'm sure he is looking forward on seeing you again too!"

"Sure you want to wear those cork wedge sandals Amelia?" Misty questioned while she feed the Pokémon.

"Of course! Don't forget, during our many missions, we had to run in heels! We are trained for this!" Amelia laughed. Her outfit? White bell sleeve shirt, faded denim vest, faded denim short shorts and white cork wedge scandals.

"Misty! You look fab!" May exclaimed. Misty was decked in a rainbow stripe one shoulder top and blue short shorts. "Really? I wanna look awesome for this concert." Misty said, checking herself in the mirror.

"Yeah! You loo awesome! Just chill!" Dawn chipper.

"And Misty? Are you dressing to impress Ash?" Amelia added slyly.

Misty stiffened and said slowly, "No."

Dawn, May and Amelia all exchanged a look. That says, 'yeah... Who do you think you're fooling?'

At Hearthome City, MBSR concert... (Normal POV)

Once the Maple Sisters joined all of the other bands, they swap each other a look to say keep on the watch and if anything's wrong, communicate through telepathy. They have all weapons in their clothes. And they got their pokeballs attached either around their waist or around their wrist (using a charm bracelet).

"Who's that guy?" Leaf asked, pointing at Gary.

"Ohh, everybody, meet Gary. Gary, meet everybody." Justin said. "Gary is going to be Boyztown's newest member!" Drew said, flipping his hair.

"Yeah! And I'm sure he'll bring Boyztown to the number one band with his new single!" Ash cheerily said.

Paul jabbed him with his index finger. "Be quiet you fool!" He hissed.

Maple Sisters, Rock IT and Sliver Babes all have similar thoughts. "Well, I'm sure it doesn't matter since Sliver Babes are already a six girl band." Cornelia smugly said. "So... too bad! The Maple Sisters and Rock IT will be lagging behind I guess."

"I'm sure all of you have heard by now that May is my girlfriend. So with the power of me and May we'll definitely bring The Maple Sisters and Rock IT to the top!" Brendan announced smugly.

Drew's usually bright emerald eyes had gone cold.

Dawn and Misty exchanged a look. Amelia fixed her gaze on Drew and concentrated on reading his thoughts. Justin noticed Amelia staring at Drew. He remembers that she had psychic powers, and that she may be able to read minds. Justin does not need to be a mind reader to know that Drew is thinking about May and how he still loves her.

Justin nudged Drew, breaking his trance.

Amelia groaned inwardly and glared at Justin. Justin shrugged his shoulder, attempting to play the helpless card.

Amelia frowned and put words into Justin's mind. "What the hell are you thinking? I have to get evidence that Drew still likes May! Because I think that May doesn't really love Brendan! Oh yeah, to reply me without speaking, just think about your reply in your mind. I can read your mind."

Justin focuses thinking of a reply, "Whoopsies. My bad then. How about we work together to get May and Drew together?"

Once Amelia read that, she gave a tiny smile and put in the words, "Now that, is a good idea and it can be arranged."

Lance interrupted Amelia and Justin's mind conversation by saying, "Okay, we will begin with the Maple Sisters and Boyztown S.E.O.U.L. Then we will have Rock IT, Sliver Babes, Boyztown and Maple Sisters songs and finally, the grand finale."

"Welcome people, to the annual concert! MBSR!" The emcee, Fantina announce into the microphone. The crowd erupted into cheers.

"First off, we will have SEOUL!" Fantina shouted above the cheering. The Maple Sisters and Boyztown appeared.

"OMGGG! Drew is soooooo hawt!"

"MISTY! Marry me!"

"Dawn! You're MINE!"

"BE QUIET!" Misty shouted into the microphone. "Yeah, be quiet or we will not be able to start." Ash added, grinning at Misty.

Dawn squinted. It was hard to see if Misty was blushing a little or it was just because of the blusher. "Or maybe because of the lighting." Amelia whispered to Dawn with a grin. "Hey! You promised me that you will not read my mind!" Dawn whispered back annoyed.

"Well, I've been trying to read the mind of everybody here! So I can see if anyone is planning something here!" Amelia replied, shooting Dawn a meaningful look.

"So can we finally start the concert?" Drew asked, flipping his hair and winking at a group of girls in the audience.

The crowd screamed.

"I'll take that as a yes!" Drew yelled, laughing.

May rolled her eyes. "How arrogant." Brendan kissed her on the cheek and said, "Well, I'm definitely not like that arrogant cabbage."

"Oh noooooooo! Brendan's taken?" A fan girl yelled out, breaking down.

"WAHHH! And I thought he was always waiting for me to enter his life!" Another sobbed.

"Come on girls! Drew is much better!" A Drew fan girl scoffed. "Brendan's nothing compared to Drew!"

"Say what bitch? Brendan's everything Drew is not!" Came the reply.

"Correct! Brendan is ugly, useless, and stupid. Drew is his complete opposite!"

"I AGREE WITH THAT!" Another fan joined in the argument.

Soon, the crowd split into two sides. One saying that Brendan is better while the other says that Drew is better.

"Um... HELLO PEOPLE! We have a concert to continue?" Misty yelled into the microphone. Unlike the previous shout, the crowd ignored her.

They were all too busy trying to calm the crowd down to notice the Sliver Babes disappearing from the stage.

With the Sliver Babes... (Normal POV)

"Quick! We can't let this chance go to waste! Honey and Candy, you'll be in charge of the capture. Apple and Leaf! Get past the guards at the control room and make sure you blind those Maple freaks with the spotlight! Megan and I will be in charge of the distraction. " Cornelia cried, dashing past the halls of the Hearthome Contest hall.

"Okay!" With that, the Sliver Babes split into groups of two.

With Honey and Candy... (Normal POV)

Honey and Candy ran into the bathroom and changed into a black suit and put on a sliver mask. The only difference between their outfits was their belt. Honey's is gold and Candy's light pink. Both hooked a communicating device to their right ear.

After making sure that their pokeballs were all clipped to their waist and they have basic weapons with them, they dumped their concert outfits in a bag.

"Come on out Unfezant!" Honey tossed out a pokeball. (*) She passed the bag to Unfezant and ordered it to just stay close to the concert hall.

They quickly ran towards the stage.

"Come on out Bellosome!" Honey whispered. "Use sleep powder on the stage handlers."

The duo snuck behind the curtains. Waiting for their cue to being their role in this operation.

With Apple and Leaf... (Normal POV)

"Oh please? Please let us in?" Apple pleaded with the guards guarding the control room. She batted her eyes and got up close to one of the guards.

The guard immediately looked down at her cleavage. "So... please?" Apple asked sweetly, twirling a lock of her honey brown hair.

The guard nodded and opened the door.

Click!

WHAM!

The guard was knocked unconscious by Leaf and her vines.

Apple and Leaf quickly directed the spotlights towards the Maple Sister, Boyztown and Rock IT. Leaf used her vines to pick up a few smoke balls.

Leaf quickly threw the balls and Apple pressed the switches.

"NOW!" Leaf shouted into the device.

With that single, little word... Chaos will begin.

With Cornelia and Megan... (Normal POV)

After changing into a black suit and sliver mask, fixing their communicating device to their right ear and making sure they have their Pokémon and weapons with them, they hid behind a pillar.

"NOW!" Came Leaf's voice.

The spotlights are shining brightly at the direction of the Maple Sisters. So Cornelia and Megan ran out and made a beeline for the Maple Sisters with sharp knives in each hand.

With Candy and Honey... (Normal POV)

"NOW!"

Candy and Honey ran straight for Boyztown.

Honey uses her vines to drag Ash away from the group.

"Err Flyer! I can use some help here! He's heavy!" Honey, the Trapper called. The Flyer, Candy created a gust of wind to push Ash towards stage, where their Pokémon stayed hidden.

Unfortunately, the smoke clears thanks to Flyer's gust of wind.

"There! They are trying to get Ash!" Misty's shouted once she saw two black figures, one growing vines to drag Ash away and the other conjuring wind to push Ash away. Misty wanted to run over to attack Flyer and Trapper. However, Rudy held her back.

"Let go of me!" Misty said through gritted teeth.

"No way! To let you die? I love you too much!" Rudy snapped, holding Misty close. "I'm sorry, but I do not like you the way you want me to." She used her elbows and jabbed him in the stomach to free herself.

"Please. Help us by getting the audience out of this place." Misty said to Rudy. Rudy sighed. 'She just loves that Ash kid too much.' He thought. "At least we are friends." He said with a small smile. Misty nodded.

"Everybody! Please calm down! Head out of the concert hall in an orderly manner!" Rudy shouted. "BARRY! KENNY! BRENDAN! Help me out!"

"ARGH!" Trapper yelled when she saw the vines she grew frozen stiff.

Dawn laughed. "Ice will always be better than grass!" She shot an ice beam. Trapper dodged it.

Dawn was about to hurl an ice ball at Trapper, but then...

"DAWN! DUCK!" May shouted.

Dawn twirled around and with a yelp; she wildly threw her ice balls at the advancing figures of Deceit and Decoy.

Deceit and Decoy easily dodged Dawn's wildly aimed ice balls.

"AHH!" Dawn cried, falling to her knees as she suddenly experienced a mental pain.

Decoy smirked, raised her hands to conjure an illusion in Dawn's mind.

(Dawn's POV)

I looked around me. Everyone was dead. My sisters and Rock IT were all lying on the floor with blood oozing out of different parts of their body.

All of the members of Boyztown were gone. All except Gary that is. But then again, Gary was also dead. And there was a note attached to Gary's dead body.

Your precious boys are all gone! Our revenge is complete! Soon, you'll be captured to be tortured by us... Buahahaha!

The Sliver Masks

I took a deep breath.

'It's okay Dawn. No need to worry. You'll defeat them. No problem.' I tried to console myself.

"Oh really? But you're all alone here!" A sharp, high pitched voice rang in her head. "ARGH!" I cried, clutching her head. The voice was so sharp that I flinched just by hearing it.

"You're alone!"

"Yes! ALONE!"

"ALONE DAWN! ALONE!"

"No one wants to be with Dawn!"

"So she's alone! ALONE!"

I stuffed her finger in her ears, trying to block out the sounds. But they are still going on strong.

"Poor, poor Dawn!"

"ALL ALONE!"

"What a pity!"

By this time, I was running around the in despair, clutching her ears.

"STOP THAT! STOP TALKING!" I yelled, tears trickling down her pale cheeks.

"ALL ALOEEEE-!"

The voice mercifully broke off.

I let out a scream and opened her eyes.

"Huh?" I blinked.

I fumbled before asking, "What's going on?"

(Amelia's POV)

"DAWN! DUCK!" I shouted as soon as I saw two black figures dashing towards Dawn. Dawn manages to escape... not for long though.

One of the figures raised her hands and Dawn's eyes immediately become glazed.

Soon, she was screaming, running in circles and clutching her ears.

"Amelia! Quick! Two of those hooded figures are trying to kidnap the boys!" May shouted, pulling me on the arm.

I tore away from her grasp. "You and Misty go help them. Dawn and I will settle the people." May nodded and start shooting flamethrowers left and right.

I took out my throwing knives and aimed them at the figure with brunette hair and purple streaks in it.

The blonde with minty green streaks deflected the knives and threw some of hers at me.

Using my psychic powers, I flick them back at her.

I concentrate on building up enough dark power to infiltrate into the girl with black hair's mind. If I gather enough power, I can stop energy from going into her. That will make her release Dawn out of the illusion.

The blonde rushed towards me, dagger in hand. I gave her a sadistic smile as I aimed a ball of energy at the brunette.

Taking out my dagger, the blonde and I started to fight.

With May and Misty... (Normal POV)

A blonde was using her grass power to pull Ash towards the stage. May shot a fireball at her, but it was thrown back at her by a brunette.

"May. Use your powers to make the area hot. As hot as you can. Don't worry about me, I'll survive. But plants can't survive in the heat." Misty said through telepathy.

May nodded and concentrated on making the atmosphere hot, like it was 99 degrees in the afternoon.

Just as what Misty expected, the vines holding onto Ash dried up. Ash easily escaped from it.

"What the hell is going on here?" Drew demanded to know.

"Oh right. Like you guys don't know what is going on!" The brunette laughed. "Our Commander might have failed when you guys were at Hearthome High, but now, all this changed. We will succeed!" The blonde added.

"If you have forgotten, back in the Hearthome High days, the Maple Sisters have defeated you. And now, we are stronger than ever, so we'll defeat you guys once more!" May retorted.

"We shall soon see about that." A voice came from behind.

May and Misty spun around to see a brunette with leaf green eyes on her Ninetails and a brunette with big doe like blue eyes came riding on her Stoutland.

CRASH!

A blonde with Minty streaks knocked into Misty. Dawn, Amelia and a brunette with purple streaks ran towards the group.

The six figures surround the Maple Sisters and Boyztown.

"Want to know who we are?" The blonde with minty streaks asked.

Without even waiting for an answer, one of the sliver masked girls spoke up, "We are the Sliver Masks. Team Dark's Commander's top ranked recruits. I'm known as Decoy."

"I'm Helper." Said the girl with big blue eyes and mahogany brown hair.

"People know me as the Flyer." Said the brunette with red streaks and black brown eyes. Misty noted that she has freckles as well.

A honey blonde girl with honey brown eyes stepped up. "Call me Trapper."

A brunette with leaf green eyes added, "Known as Shadow."

"And I'm the leader of Sliver Masks. Deceit's my name." The minty blonde finished.

They all released a Pokémon each. Salemence, Dugtrio, Rapidash and Bisharp appeared. Stoutland and Ninetails joined the group of Pokémon.

"Well, it is a good thing we have our Pokémon with us." Dawn said flatly.

The Maple Sisters released Togekiss, Corsola, Blaziken and Cinccino.

The Maple Sisters and Sliver Masks are standing apart from each other, almost as if an invisible line was drawn across the "battlefield".

Fire can be seen burning in the Maple Sister's eyes. While their opponent kept their icy cool demeanour.

"Let the battle begin."

OKAY!

Finally done with this! This must be the longest chapter I've written for this story so far! No, there is nothing for you guys to guess in this chapter. And as an apology for taking... –shudders- more than three weeks just to write this chapter... I'll give something to hint on the next chapter.

SPOLIERS!

In the next chapter...

A battle.

Someone MIGHT be missing.

A note.
