DISCLASIMER: I OWN NOTHING BUT MY O.C's

Mt. Chimney, Archie POV

As I fell toward my imminent doom, I wondered when Team Magma got so fierce. Not only had they fought off everyone I brought despite our two-to-one numerical superiority, one of the grunts had actually charged me while my Pokémon were fighting his and slammed the two of us off the side of the volcano into the waiting arms of the lava. He happened to have a Skarmony which had grabbed him in its claws just a moment ago. Just as I finally remembered my new Flygon which my second in command had given me for my birthday, I hit the lava. But the burning sensation I expected never started, and the feeling of falling didn't cease. With wide eyes I glanced below me, only to find a derelict city rapidly approaching me. I finally let out my Flygon and with a graceful loop, it caught me just before I hit the ground. Once I was on the ground, the Flygon flew back into its ball. I tried to bring it back out, but the ball wouldn't open.

'Well' I thought 'might as well see if I can find anything to get me out.' Above me stood an archway, and behind it was what looked like a school. On the archway were the words Welcome to the ninja academy of the village hidden in fire "Village hidden in fire, huh? Fits." I said with a smile.

Searching the academy took me hours, but all I found were some scrolls on how to unlock something called Chakra, the twelve handsigns, a control exercise called Tree walking, and two techniques called HENGE and KAWIRIMI. With a shrug, I decided to follow the instructions for unlocking Chakra.

The first thing I noticed once I had finished was the incredible feeling of power. I felt like I could take on in a straight fight Pokémon and win. I felt as though the world itself was literally within my reach, like I could expand the sea, take over the remaining land, and make myself king of the world. And then the power became a steady whisper, like a brook wandering through mountains.

"Whoa. That was intense." Deciding to experiment, I pumped the power into my legs and ran. In a moment, I was running so fast that I was a blur. I ran all the way to the large tower before I slowed down, mostly because of hitting the wall. I actually made a dent in it. Once I was in, I explored.

The hours spent searching the tower proved to be very useful. I came across three scrolls, one with the word Wyverns written on it and an attached scroll labeled Instructions on the right wall, and a scroll in a case in the middle of the room that said Forbidden Scroll. The forbidden scroll had been partially burnt, but it still had twelve legible techniques. Half of those were Water style techniques, another third Lightning, and the last two Earth. The instructions for the Wyvern scroll said to sign my name in blood, bite my thumb enough to draw blood, then push a lot of chakra into a technique called KUCHIYOSE NO JUTSU. Remembering that the creature in question had wings, I decided to follow the instructions.

As soon as I finished the summoning, there was a cloud of smoke. As it dissipated, a red and yellow reptile about twice my height with two bulky legs, two huge bat-like wings, a long tail with a stinger at the end, a large head that was wide in the back and narrow at the snout became visible. Then, to my surprise, it spoke "Hello, Summoner! Wow, this is my first time being summoned. Anyway, do you have any fish or treasure?"

"Why would I need that?"

"Don't you know anything? All summons have a summon price. We wyverns like fish to eat, especially sharks or similarly large ones, or treasure, such as gold, silver, bronze, jewelry, or gems. Do you have any?"
"Well, I do have a gold nugget on me. Will that do?"

"Yes, now give me it." Without further ado, I fished my nugget out of my backpack and handed it over. The wyvern looked it over and then tucked the nugget behind its wing. "Now, my name is Sayyaf. What do you need?"
"For now, I just need to get to Team Aqua Base. I can summon you again, right?"

"Oh yes, just put the same amount of chakra into the Summoning that you did for me and think of my most prized treasure, a crow carved out of an onyx. Now, where is this base of yours?"

"Northwest of here, I'll guide you once we're in the air"

"Okay. Get on."

Team Aqua Base

Sayyaf and I arrived a few hours later. All of team Aqua were gathered in the center of the base, several of them crying their eyes out. Then, from the center, I heard someone say "We are gathered here today to honor our deceased friend and leader, Archie. Let us all bow our heads and pray to Arceus to take him into his shining hall."

"Oh man, it's your own funeral. Talk about timing, this could make an awesome prank." Sayyaf whispered excitedly.

"That it would." I murmured. Then Maxine, the hottest ice queen in Aqua, said "If he was here, I'd kiss him right on the mouth."

Sayyaf grinned, then slapped me into the middle of everyone with his tail. "Hi, Maxine." I said nervously. She grimaced and wound up her fist. "KAWIRIMI" I cried, and suddenly Sayyaf was in my place. "I'll get you for this!" He yelled as he got punched on his right leg hard enough to make him fall over. Then he poofed back to wherever it was he came from. Everyone looked around and found me back behind them all. Two of them caught my arms, and Maxine approached.

"Now" Maxine began "You have some explaining to do, Archie."

"Alright. The lava in mount chimney is nothing more than an illusion. Underneath is an abandoned town called 'the village hidden in fire,' and I am making it a required place for all team Aqua members to visit. There were things there that will give us an unbeatable edge against any opponent. With the power of that place, nothing will stop us from expanding the sea!"

A/N: sorry for the delay. It's been very rough here at home, but I'm determined to finish this story.
