The Power Of Aura And The Temple Of The Sea

Chapter 3

After the show the group started heading towards the next town, but along the way they had decided to stop for a break. They had stopped alongside a river and had set up a picnic. Brock was helping Lizabeth's grampa with making a pizza in their stove while being inside the caravan, while Ash and the others placed dishes on the table. The pizza was soon made and Brock and the grampa brought it down to the table. "Okay guys pizza is now ready!" Brock said while placing the pizza on the table.

"Wow Brock that looks amazing!" Commented May.

"Thanks, May."

"Man, I'm so hungry," said Ash as they sat down at the table with Misty sitting across him.

She laughed "I see nothing has change eh, Ash?"

Ash raise his eyes in confusion and Brock chuckled as he knew what Misty was talking about "what ya talking about?"

The group had soon finished their picnic and were starting to clean up before heading to the next town. Ash, Max and Pikachu where down by the river cleaning the dishes when Pikachu sparked electricity out of his cheeks, "chuuuuuu!" He growled in the direction of the small waterfall.

Ash notice his little buddy and wondered what was up "hey Pikachu what's up buddy?!"

Pikachu nodded in the direction and Ash saw what was causing Pikachu to act like that, he gasped and Ash, Max Pikachu and buizel who was swimming in the river ran over to the others who were all putting things away. "Hey guys check it out!" Ash yelled while pointing to the helicopters that were heading in their direction.

Jackie growled "it's Phantom!"

Misty gazed up worriedly "how did he find us?!"

Jackie ushered everyone inside the trailer "okay, everyone inside the trailer now!"

Lizabeths dad drove the trailer but a long wire with a hook had latched onto the caravan behind the trailer and the group had to move into the trailer. Suddenly the trailer had crashed since they had run over a mud puddle and Jackie quickly grabbed the container that Misty had seen earlier on.

Phantom's helicopter landed close by and Phantom and his men got out and attacked the trailer. Phantom chuckled evilly as he stepped inside to see Misty and Jackie there. "Ah, there you are my dear I told you couldn't get away from me, and you pokemon ranger your skills are impressive, but you will be unable to beat me!"

Jackie chuckled "I'm sorry but that's where you're wrong, because I've already beaten you before when I got this!" Jackie showed them the manaphy egg.

Phantom growled "you men grab the girl, I'll get the egg!" Phantom ordered and then charged for the pokemon ranger. Jackie jumped over him and kicked a couple of his men down.

"Everyone run!" Jackie yelled as he ran out of the trailer soon followed by the others who were then driven off in different directions due to the Phantom's henchmen.

Ash, Misty and Pikachu ran while Ash grab Misty's hand since he could faster than her. "Hang on Misty!" Yelled Ash as they ran he gasped when they were cornered by a couple of the henchmen.

Ash growled as he held out an arm to protect Misty and Pikachu sparked electricity out of his cheeks, the men chuckled "ok kid you don't want to mess with us, hand over the girl and we won't hurt ya!"

Ash glared at them, "forget it you're not getting near her!"

"Ash be careful," Misty said softly.

"You better listen to her kid," said the man but suddenly he kicked down by Jackie who quickly handed Misty the container.

"Misty take this, Ash take Misty and the egg out of her do not let Phantom take her or the egg!" Jackie yelled before he noticed Phantom coming their way. He run off and told Ash and Misty to go the other way.

Phantom however wasn't fooled and followed Ash and Misty who had soon reached a dead end. "Oh no its a dead-end!" Ash yelled.

"Pika!"

They turned around only to come face to face with Phantom who had an evil grin on his face "ah, I see that this time I am the one winning for as you see there are two types of men in this world those who win all the time and those who lose and I'm one of those who always wins hahaha!"

Misty gasped as the manaphy egg had started to glow and that's when Phantom charged for her "oh no you don't!" Ash cried as jumped on top of Phantom and pulled him back.

Misty could watch in awe as the container broke anda bright white light shined around and seemed to take shape. Misty's mouth hung open as a blue Pokemon stared back up at her, the little blinked at her before bursting out into tears.

"Ah! There, there it'll be okay no need to cry!" Misty said in a soft voice which seemed to calm the little one down. Miisty sighed in relife.

Phantom was less than pleased he shoved Ash off him and grabbed Misty and manaphy "I was going to hatch manaphy with my own two hands, but no matter I now have both of you in my possession haha!"

Ash growled "let her go Phantom!"

Phantom smirked "hehe not on your life kid, I suggest that you do not come any closer or think about attacking me, cause your little girlfriend will get hurt!" He was satisfied when Ash backed away. The pirate brought out a walkie talkie "bring the helicopters now, I have both the girl and manaphy in my possession!"

"Rodger that sir!"Said the man on the other end.

The helicopters soon appeared but before even getting on them Phantom was hit by a spearrow which caused him to let go of Misty. Ash quickly took this chance and grabbed Misty awy from him "Misty are you alright?!"

"Yes I fine now."

Jackie stood beside the two "nice job Ash," he growled when he saw Phantom escape in the helicopter.

Phantom hung onto the outside of the helicopter "you haven't seen the last of me yet Pokemon ranger I will be back!"
