Starting to update the stories faster now, getting into writing again.

Well, that and I'm doing my best to get chapters out before school starts back up sometime late this month.

This chapter is significantly longer than the rest, or atleast I hope it will be. If it isn't, I'll be posting another chapter soon to finish what started in this since it'll be a bad transition if i put it all in the chapter.

Disclaimer - I don't own Pokémon sadly.

Akuma's POV

I sighed as Team Magma's 'secret' base came into sight from the cove. Knowing that I had no way into gaping entrance, I trudged into the bright blue water. It isn't the smartest of ideas that I've ever had because it's cold as fuck and I'm use to warmth from Kandi. The only good thing about swimming as an Eeveelution, we have waterproof fur. Bad thing, I'm a morph so I gotta wear clothing. My black cargo shorts, black t-shirt, and vest were all soaked.

I slowly closed the gap between the stairs and I, desperate to get out of the water and to meet up with Archie and Maxie. As I approached the gun metal staircase, two of the admins guarding the doorway noticed me and reached towards my arms to help pull me out. Once out of the water, the the admins whose shirt had a small badge that said Zinnia saluted me and said "Leader Maxie is expecting you sir." As I started to walk into the long ass hallway, I noticed the girl from the corner of my eye whisper something into a tiny radio.

Shrugging it off, I continued walking and met up with Archie.

"You ready chap?"

I shook my head and replied "Nervous, especially since we have some fucking admins following us."

"I don't blame you laddie, I'm feeling the same way of meeting the big boss." Archie said, trying to keep in character of being part of Team Magma.

Archie and I wandered around the massive building until Tabitha finally got tired of us not knowing where to go and gave us direction to where Maxie was located. The room he led us to was pitch black besides to circular pads, one being green and the other yellow.

"Green to see the boss, Yellow to see the warehouse." Zinnia mumbled.

Archie and I quickly glanced at each other for a moment before I sighed and stepped on the green pad. Everything went black around me, except for a slight tinge of green starting to make itself present. "Works like Trip's teleport... Just not pink."

When everything quit moving, a massive rush of air blasted me, signaling that I had returned to reality. I stepped off the glowing green pad and looked around. The room was empty besides the pad and a door, leading to Maxie.

I waited next to the door as Archie, Tabitha, and Zinnia teleported one-by-one into the room. Tabitha being impatient, said "Open the door, we will wait out here for you." I mentally sighed as I grabbed the know and twisted it until I could pull the door open. Stepping into the room, I looked around to see it was well furnished with teal carpeting, multiple bookshelves filled to the max, a well organized desk with Maxie sitting behind it, along with the final admin, Courtney besides him.

"Pleasure to see you two traveled all the way to Hoenn just to meet up with me. Take a seat, please, so I can discuss what we'll be doing since you two are going to be the newest admins." Maxie spoke, his tone matching Giovanni's after champion Red defeated him for the first time.

Archie and I both sat down on the leather chairs in front of Maxie's desk so we began to speak again. "As you know, we fight for the better of the world. While we have to use force and violence, our aim is to awaken the legendary Pokémon Groudon. There's only one problem, and that's what is holding us back. The red orb, that we need to awaken and power up Groudon with is is located in your arm Akuma, while the Blue orb, used to awaken the legendary Pokémon Kyorge is located in your leg. To retrieve them, we require surgery due to the bionic limbs being attached to your nerves and brain so you're able to control them."

"Will I have to be awake or asleep for the surgery considering my arm is made of metal, wiring, and electronics?" I questioned the red haired man.

"Asleep. As the wiring is connected to your nerves, the only way to do this in a none painful way would be removing the orb while you're unconscious."

I made an uncomfortable facial expression as I asked "Can't I use the orbs power to awaken the beast without removing it?"

Courtney shook her head and replied "You don't hold the potentional that Maxie contains. The orb must be in his hands for the awakening."

"Any more question that you need answering now?" Maxie asked, his expression unchanging. I didn't reply so he continued, "Good. Courtney, you may do what you've been waiting for. Zinnia, Tabitha, escort Akuma."

Zinnia and Tabitha enter the room, hands behind their backs while Courtney pulled out a gun and aimed it at Archie. "We know you two are actually spies from Team Magma and the Pokemon Ranger groups. Akuma, we need you so you're staying. Archie, goodbye." As Maxie finished talking, Courtney pulled the trigger. The bullet dug through the Team Aqua leader's skull where he finally rested in his brain. The blood spewing from the dead member's head landed on my arm and hand, tinging the metal and fur.

As I stayed still in shock of Archie getting his brain getting blasted, Tabitha took the the time to throw me to the ground and hand cuff both my arm and legs together.

Once I snapped out of my shocked state, I quickly realized that I couldn't move my limbs. I looked around to see that Zinnia, Tabitha, and Courtney were all carrying me to a hospital room like area. I was greeted to the 'beautiful' sight of test chambers, jail cells, and pipes with strange liquids in them, along with weird creatures and Pokémon.

"Good, you're awake Akuma. Now we can put you to sleep long enough to actually retrieve the red orb." I heard a feminine voice say. I looked over to see Zinnia holding a screw drive to open up a panel and get to work in the arm.

"Fuck you." I spat.

The girl just chuckled and asked "And what are you going to do about it?"

I closed my eyes and started to use psychic on a wrench on the other side of the room and flung the wrench, nailing her in the back of the head. Instead of knocking her out, she looked at me unharmed and smirking. "Foam wrench. We knew you'd try something so we put a foam wrench in here for you to attempt to hurt me. Now go to sleep babe." The girl pressed a propofol to my mouth, knocking me out.

Serin's POV

I heard my phone ringing so I scooted out from under Cerulean's sleeping form and picked up the phone to see Sarge calling me. Wondering why he'd be calling me at this time of the night, I answered and asked "What's so important that you're calling me at three in the morning?"

I heard a sigh come from the other side of the line then Sarge saying "He's M.I.A Serin."

"Who is missing in action exactly?" I asked

"Akuma. Implanted in his arm, is the red orb used for Groudon. It has a special power that we had connected to the arm, allowing us to always know where he is. Now that the orb has been removed, we have no connection of his location and where-a-bouts are. We're sure that he is still in Lilycove City, but have no way to get him. You're the only way in since you could change into a grunt or admin."

I stayed quiet, trying to imagine what I'll have to go through to get my friend back when a question popped up into my head. "If Team Magma has the red orb, are they able to control Groudon now?"

"Thankfully, no. They got to find the cavern that that beast is located in is still hidden to them. It should hopefully stay that way long enough to recover Akuma and stop them."

I groaned and replied "Send a chopper here. We'll plan at the bunker."

"Rodger."

I hang up the phone and started to pace around the dorm. "How the fuck am I going to tell Kandi about this? She'll be devastated..."

Apparently I shouted that since Cerulean woke up and asked me, still half asleep, "How are you going to tell me sister what?"

I sighed and sat on the side of the bed. Cerulean being obviously concerned, scooted to the edge of the bed and wrapped her arms around me. "Akuma."

Cerulean tilted her head, so I continued to say "He's gone M.I.A, missing in action if you didn't know what I meant. Meaning he's alive and we don't know where he is, or he could be dead."

Cerulean gasped and her grip around me tightened. "Kandi talked about this to me before..."

I looked at her so she continued to say "She said that if Akuma ever went missing or died, she'll join the military in his honor."

"Stay here."

"Huh?"

"I said stay here. I'm taking Kandi to the bunker with me to fulfill her promise."

Cerulean nodded and let go of me. I stood up and walked out of the house. When I reached Akuma and Kandi's house, I pulled the key Akuma gave me and unlocked the door. Walking into the room, I went into the hidden entrance leading to the bed room to see a sleeping Kandi holding Akuma's pillow. "Kandi." I whispered. Only getting a grumble in reply, I said "Kandi." Once again, in a louder voice.

"Five more minutes dad..." Was all she replied.

I groaned and lifted the girl out of the bed causing Kandi to wake up and look me in the eyes. "What did you need so badly that you had to wake me up this way?"

"We're leaving to the Orre region in a few hours."

"And why is that?"

I sighed and replied "Cerulean told me about your promise you made. And today, is the day that it comes into play."

"Wait." Kandi gasped. "You're telling me that Akuma is fucking dead?"

I shook my head and replied "Hopefully no. He's missing in action. The red orb used to help the military track where he is has been removed. We're hoping that he's currently in Lilycove city still."

"Set me down, I'll get out of my pajamas and get ready. I don't give a shit how hard the training is, I'm doing this to get my fucking fiancé back." She growled.

Noticing her inner flame heat up even more, I sat her down on the bed and left the building. I sat down near the helipad that Akuma and Randy built together after the first time the military came here. After twenty minutes Kandi joined me in some type of clothing that made her look pretty fucking badass, along with her extra heat production radiating from her body.

"If you're wondering, I had Akuma help me design the clothing since I saw you eyeing it." Kandi spoke.

Those were the last words that were spoken until the morning when everybody else was waking up. Maze being the first to wake up, noticed the two of us waiting in silence so she walked up to us and asked "What are the two of you waiting for? Is Akuma's mission already over? And Kandi, what's with the badass and sexy clothing?"

I opened my mouth to speak but got cut off by Kandi who replied "He's missing or even worse, dead. I made a promise that I'd join the military in his honor if either of those happened so we're waiting for the helo to arrive and take us to the Orre region."

"Stay safe you two and I wish you the best of luck of getting Akuma back." Maze replied before running off to Kandi's old dorm to cook her normal breakfast pancakes.

We continued waiting for another hour until the sound of a chopper could be heard buzzing through the baby blue skies. I glanced at Kandi who was cleaning off a .44 Magnum that Akuma gave her to help practice shooting. I just rolled my eyes and stood up as the chopper slowly came down for a landing. Once landed, Kandi and I jumped in and we took off again, ready for your flight.

Sarge gave me a questioning look when he saw Kandi jumping in so he asked "Why is Akuka's fiancé here along with the gun he stole from the armoury in her holster?"

"Made a promise to myself." She replied. "Akuma dies or goes missing, I'm joining the military."

I didn't expect the him to understand, but he surprisingly did and nodded after she finished speaking. "It's a four hour flight, get comfy and some extra rest since you've been up since three."

Here's part one to this chapter.

As I said in the author's note in the beginning of the chapter, I'll be making a part two to this chapter. So hooray, this stories for double chapter updated within hopefully 24 hours.

Mainly because I'm getting really fucking into what's happening and the transition would be absolutely terrible if I just skipped to what happens next in this chapter.

The next chapter will be up hopefully in the next 24 hours then I'll hopefully get to updating Chaos Squad.

If you want a picture of what Kandi is wearing, (insert Google images link) /images/L1h4cn is where you can see it. (I didn't draw it) Please don't report me since I'm pretty sure that breaks FF rules to add links

Quick Shoutout to Laptoper321. He shouted me out for being the first he's seen do a Male Glaceon and Female Sylveon pair (was in Left In The Shadows) so it just feels right to give him a shoutout in this. The story he's working on currently, Icy Isolation is fan-fucking-tastic if you asked me and I feel the need to say that you should read it! :)

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and stay tuned for the next.
