The large Nidoqueen bellowed out a large roar and stomped the rocky ground below. The ground shook with tremendous tremors that the brave Audino warrior stood upon. The audino's name is April, she came here to challenge the so called Queen of the Earth. She stood her ground, her stubby legs wobbled and her iron armor clanking loudly with the vibration as they struggled to remain upright from the violent quake. The Nidoqueen smirked down at her struggle to stand and was impressed that she actually remained upright.
"You're the first audino to not fall from a shake like that!" She complimented the normal type. "Go ahead, try to land a single blow on me!" The nidoqueen then taunted, opening herself up to an attack. Aeris huffed; she didn't like how the Nidoqueen was pretending to give her the advantage. Aeris reminded herself that she was the toughest from her group, and she came here to stop this queen from ravaging their home and stealing their food.
With a mighty roar she gripped the handle of her iron sword and ran toward the nidoqueen at full speed. Her blade pointed right at the heart of the poisonous beast and with a jump she pierced the Nidoqueen
The blade immediately broke in two while the handle loosely flew away from her hand. Aegis quickly retreated with a jump and assessed the situation. She tilted her head up to see if she managed to deal any damage to the Nidoqueen. Her spirit quickly diminished when she was greeted with a laugh. Nidoqueen looked down at Aeris from a great height. Her intimidating size towered over Aeris since she easily stood more than twice her height.
"That was it?" Nidoqueen humored.
"Ah damn it…" Aeris muttered. She was in for it now.
Nidoqueen wrapped both her arms around Aeris and forced her into a bear hug. Aeris groaned and wiggled kicked in the air. Nidoqueen only had to squeeze her violently once before the armor broke off. Aeris didn't give up though; she bit her lip while her bouncy blue eyes glared angrily at Nidoqueen. She then kicked at the ground type repeatedly. Nidoqueen chuckled, she found her futile attempts to fight to be quite adorable.
Damn Nidoqueen.
"You know honey, you're kind of cute, and a tough one at that! " The Nidoqueen teased as she squeezed harder. Aeris found it more difficult to breath from the pressure. She could feel her bones begin to snap…
"I'll let you in on a little secret, I'm not what I seem to be"
"Just hurry up and kill me!" Aeris hissed through her teeth. She would've yelled but she didn't have enough air in her for that.
"In due time my spunky little friend. I just want to tell you something very secretive! You see I'm not actually a Nidoqueen…" Aeris felt her hug begin to let out, she didn't know if she was going unconscious or experiencing brain damage from air loss but the Nidoqueen's arms began to feel soft and seemingly melt against her skin. Then Aeris saw Nidoqueen's eyes magically transform into dot like pupils.
"You're a-a Ditto?!" Ditto said nothing. Aeris was merely absorbed into his pink slime nearly instantaneously.
Back at Audino Village crowds of audino cheered when Aeris came back with a raised sword. Everyone crowded around her. They congratulated her for taking out the beast.
"How did you do it, Aeris?!" A wrinkly old audino asked. He was Aeris' master and noticed that her smile was more of a cocky smirk, something unusual for Aeris. She said nothing. The silence made the cheering die down.
"Aeris, why are you so quiet?"
"You did kill the queen… right?"
Aeris shook her head.
"I am the queen." Purple tendrils shot out from her body and wrapped around the nearest audino. Everyone began to run, but none were able to escape. One after another Ditto absorbed and ate all the audino that resided in the village.
