So how about some dancing eh?...trust me, you'll see what I mean. Enjoy the chapter!
Chapter 34-Dancing Electricity
A short walk later, the two reached the motel to see Looker and Anabel writing down on some paperwork. Something inside Collin sparked off and he stamped his foot down, causing the two officers to look up at him.
"Okay seriously! This is the second Ultra Beast we've come across and it's not attacked anyone!" he shouted. "I feel like I just wasted my time bring my old team back from their holiday to fight these things. Hell, you two could do it!" Looker looked at Anabel, seeming like he was looking for confirmation from her. With a nod, Looker walked over to the two and sighed.
"The reason why Anabel, at least, can't help is because she had an accident with them in the past. Remember when I said she wasn't the same Anabel from this world?" he asked. Collin nodded but Guzma looked confused. "Well, she fell through an Ultra Wormhole after facing an Ultra Beast known as Guzzlord. Ever since then her memory has been messed up and whenever she gets near an Ultra Beast, it nearly kills her." Collin felt guilty after this realization, bashing her for something she can't control.
"Okay, that's explains her. But why can't you?" he asked. Looker looked away for a moment.
"Because I don't have my Pokemon anymore." was all he said before leaving the motel. Collin had no idea what just happened, but Anabel came to their side.
"He lost his Pokemon a few years back to some small gang. They got him good and his Pokemon protected him, before getting killed. Ever since then he's never used a Pokemon in his life." she explained.
"Damn...that rough." said Guzma, sitting down on a chair. Collin follow suit, not feeling too well for bashing the two for the last few hours. Guzma saw this in him instantly. "Hey, come on. You didn't know, I didn't know. Don't feel so down about it."
"I guess...still." said Collin, looking down to the ground. "I just assumed that they were lazy."
"Well you know what they say about assuming?" said Guzma. Collin looked at the man, seeing a wide grin on his face. "It makes an ass out of you and me." he said before laughing. Collin couldn't help but join in with the laughter.
"Very true, very true." replied Collin. "I just hope this easy win streak keeps up." Suddenly, the door to the motel slammed opened...again. Standing at the door was Looker, panting and sweaty...again.
"Es ist ein Desaster!" he shouted out loud. "Sorry!" he said before anyone could comment on him using another language. "But we got a problem! Ultra Beast Xurkitree has been spotted in the Lush Jungle on Akala Island. The Trial Captain of the Lush Jungle reported it. We must get there now!" he said running out of the motel.
"Well, back to Akala we go. You know the song and dance, get to Lush Jungle and capture Xurkitree. We'll see you in the same motel we first met. Good luck." And with that, Anabel left Collin and Guzma on their own again.
"This is going to be a long day isn't it?" asked Guzma.
"A very, very long day." replied Collin. "Let's go see Mallow, she'll catch us up to speed." They walked out of the motel and summoned Charizard and flew to Akala Island, wondering what will face them next
When they landed outside the Lush Jungle, there was music coming from deep inside the jungle. Standing at the entrance was Mallow herself, looking extremely angry. She turned to see Collin and Guzma and stormed up to them.
"Please Collin! You gotta help me here!" she cried out.
"That's the idea. What's going on?" he asked.
"Some Ultra Beast is in the Lush Jungle, making a mess!" she shouted. "I can't get it to calm down."
"Why? Too powerful?" asked Guzma.
"No...it's protected by raving teens." she said. This confused the two males, waiting for her to explain. "Ugh, some teens that were in the Jungle were playing music when the thing came. It started dancing to the music and the next thing I know, more and more teens came and started a rave in there. The poor Pokemon's homes are being destroyed and they don't seem to care. Please you got to do something!"
"Okay, where about is the rave taking place?" asked Collin.
"At the far end of the jungle. Thank you for at least giving it a go. If this doesn't work, then the police is getting involved and that's a headache of itself." she said.
"Tell me about it. Let's go Collin." The two entered the jungle and already the music was louder. They went all the way to the far end and saw a bunch of teens, no than fifteen years of age, dancing and jumping, while in the middle stood Xurkitree, waving it's arms and bending left and right while the music pounded loudly throughout the dance.
"So you think you can control this Collin?" asked Guzma, looking at the teens dancing. Collin wasn't sure if he could honestly. Yes the Ultra Beast wasn't attacking, but could attack at any moment, leading to a lot of injured teens. Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head.
"I think I have an idea." he said, getting out of the bushes they were hiding in and walking over to the rave. "Hey! Who said you could rave here?" he asked.
"Hey look! It's the Champ!" said one of the teens. "You joining the rave?" he asked.
"Nope, I'm here to stop it. You do know this is illegal right? To throw a party in a protected area?"
"Oh shut up square!" said a female. "We're just having fun with our new friend here!" she said, pointing to the Xurkitree. Collin smirked and began his plan.
"Okay tell you what, let's make a deal. My Pokemon will have a dance off with Xurkitree here. If they win, you guys need to pack everything up and leave." he said.
"And if they loose?" asked a teen.
"Then you can stay here and party." said Collin. Guzma came out of the bushes and stood by him.
"Collin, the hell are you doing?" he whispered.
"Shh, I know what I'm doing. Trust me." he said, giving a wink. "Do we have a deal?" The teens talked among themselves before coming to a conclusion.
"Deal. Let's see your Pokemon dance!" shouted one of the kids. Collin couldn't help but smirk at the cockiness of the kids and took out two Poke Balls.
"With pleasure. Go Electivire! Go Klefki!" he shouted and both Pokemon came out. "Klefki, use Magic Room!" he shouted. Klefki cried and suddenly the whole area was covered in white and grey tile patches, that changed every second making it look like a dance floor.
"I see what you're doing." said Guzma, smirking at the idea.
"Heh, Okay Electivire, show these kids how it's done." he said. Electivire got into the middle of the "dance floor", right in front of Xurkitree. Collin played a different song on the radio and a techno heavy song started to play. Instantly, Electivire began to dance in time with the music. It started doing all kinds of dance moves, the shuffle, break dancing, even the worm. Poor Xutkitree couldn't keep up due to it's sheer size and inability to move around the "dance floor". By the time the song ended, Xurkitree was tired out, lending backwards, while Electivire was panting like crazy, but still stood it's ground. "Okay that's enough, I think they get the point. Klefki, get rid of the Magic Room." The area turned back to it's jungle form, with everyone speechless.
"How the hell did Electivire do that?!" shouted Guzma.
"Well when you were apart of a dance troupe as an Elekid, you'd be able to dance too." he said with a smirk. He then turned to the teens, who were still speechless. "Okay everyone, pack up your shit and get going. And yes, that includes waste." The teens grumbled and they began to pick up their mess, while Guzma went up to Xurkitree.
"Alright, let's get you home." he said, using the Beast Ball on it and the Xurkitree was captured. By the time the teens left the jungle, Mallow came in and her face was nothing short of glee.
"Oh thank you both. I really should buckle down on having people here. It's not the first time it's happened." she confessed.
"What do you mean?" asked Collin.
"It seems that just before school starts, everyone comes here to rave. No matter how hard I try, they always come." she said. "But at least it didn't last long this year. Thank you both. You're welcome to a nice big meal."
"We'll hold you to that Mallow, we need to get back to work." said Collin, despite an upset Guzma. "We'll see you later." The two left the jungle with Guzma still upset about not eating.
"I'm fucking starving here kid!" he shouted.
"Look, once we finish this we'll have food. Trust me, she cooks a mean dish so you want to prepare yourself." Guzma didn't like the sound of his voice, making him doubt he'd enjoy Mallow's food. But that was all to come, as they made they way back to the motel once again.
No joke, imagine Jellyfish Jam for the dance off and you get the idea. Reviews and comments of any nature are welcomed and as always, I'll see you in the next chapter. Cheerio!
