Chapter 7: The Team Rocket Base – The Storage Chamber

The shady, hooded man and woman finally finished dragging the synthetic cube to the cell location.

"We're not afraid of you!" Misty threatened them.

"We'll take you head on, you cowards!" Tracey yelled at them.

"We're stronger than all you grunts combined!" May burst out.

"If you think you're strong, we're double!" Serena declared.

"Yeah, let us go so we can show you some real trouble!" Clemont raged.

"Did somebody say trouble?" the woman said, pulling off her cloak.

"And make that double!" the man said, pulling off his cloak as well.

After letting the 12 free, Jessie and James were desperately trying to convince the group that they were on their side, but none of them would listen.

"Grr…it's Jessie and James," Iris said.

"They're no good at all," Cilan sighed.

"They're the ones who have us now?" Dawn doubted.

"We can beat you any day! Max shouted.

"Wait!" Ash yelled.

"I don't know Ash…" Bonnie said, unsure of trusting them.

"They have something to say," Ash said, "listen."

"We're no longer a part of Team Rocket…." James spoke.

"At least right now…." Jessie said.

"But you guys have been around for us our entire career as field agent," James continued.

"Now that we're not under Giovanni," Jessie started.

"We're going to help you in saving Pikachu!" James declared.

"How do we know that we can trust you?" Bonnie asked furiously.

"Yeah, you're just going to go back at it again!" May argued, knowing the situation.

"Please!" James pleaded. "We don't have any other choice! We're on our own without our team!"

"We can get you into the storage room!" Jessie also pleaded. "We'll do anything to save the most special Pikachu in the world.

"She does have a point," Brock told Clemont. "The disablers are broken, remember?"

"And if they still have their id's, they'll be able to let us in!" Cilan added.

"Think about it, if they didn't come along, we would be trapped for life in this prison!" Tracey pointed out. "They saved us!"

"I have to agree with Tracey," Ash said. "They helped us out all right!"

"Plus we have a second chance now!" Dawn delighted.

"Just help us until we save Pikachu at the least," Serena reluctantly accepted.

"And you better not take him when we do!" Max confronted.

All of a sudden, a Team Rocket Grunt came in from the courtyard to where they were.

"I already know that none of you are supposed to be here right now! Beedrill, use String Shot on all of them!"

"Aaah!" Misty yelped. "It's a bug Pokémon!"

All 14 of them, including Jessie and James, were trapped in Beedrill's attack.

"That was easy!" the grunt said. "Now all I have to do is –"

"Blaziken, use Flamethrower!" a man commanded.

A few seconds later, it was the grunt and his Beedrill that were tied up, not Ash and his friends.

"Wow," Serena said blushing in awe, "you saved us!"

"Who are you?" Dawn wondered.

"Me?" the man explained. "I am the Blaziken Mask of course, and this is my Blaziken!"

"That's right," Meowth said, finally appearing, "this buddy is helping us out also!"

"So you mean you four came all the way from Kalos just to help us save Pikachu?" Clemont pondered.

"You got it!" Blaziken Mask answered.

"Wow," Ash said gratefully, "thanks for the help!"

"So let's go to the storage room now!" Meowth said.

"Just wait one second," May asked Blaziken Mask, "did your Blaziken just Mega Evolve?"

"Why yes, it did," Blaziken Mask answered.

"My Venusaur Mega Evolved also," May continued, "but I'm not quite sure how. I think these stones had to do with it."

May handed Blaziken Mask the box full of stones, and he was amazed to find a treasure trove of Mega Stones.

"I don't know how you got these, but this is great!" Blaziken Mask said joyously. "I think I'll teach all of you about Mega Evolution; it will make us stronger against Team Rocket!"

"Cool!" they all said.

Mega Evolution

"For Mega Evolution, you need two stones," Blaziken Mask started. "The trainer needs to hold a Key Stone and press it when it's time to Mega Evolve. The second stone must be held by the Pokémon itself; this stone is specific to the species depending on what the stone is called. Lastly, the trainer and Pokémon must have a strong bond."

"So that means your Blaziken has a Blaziken Mega Stone," Brock deduced.

"Correct," Blaziken Mask said, "but the official name for the stone is called a Blazikenite."

"Can my Blaziken Mega Evolve?" May asked.

"Well, let's see if there's a Blazikenite in here." Blaziken Mask checked the box, and sure enough, there was a Blazikenite inside. "Here's one."

"All right!" May proclaimed.

"How many Key Stones are there?" Iris asked.

"Let's see…it appears there are four Key Stones in here," Blaziken Mask stated. "And there are Mega Stones here for Heracross, Venusaur, Charizard, Houndoom, Gyarados, Manectric, and Blaziken."

"So that means two of my Pokémon can Mega Evolve," May figured out.

"Me too," Ash said.

"I have a Gyarados," Misty pointed out.

"Good," Blaziken Mask said, "then we'll give Key Stones to May, Ash, and Misty! We'll also give the trainers the Pokémon specific Mega Stones for their Pokémon to hold!"

After giving out the stones, everyone was ready to head out.

"Follow me, everyone," James said.

"Wait," Jessie said, "let's make sure the coast is clear."

Jessie, James, and Meowth checked the hallways to make sure no one else was out.

"Ok, the coast is clear," James said.

"Let's see," May said, using her still working map. "The storage room was in front of us when we were in the courtyard. Since we went right to get to the cells, all we have to do is walk forward and then left."

"That's convenient," Serena said.

"At least we don't have to go outside again," Iris said in relief.

"Remember that all the Team Rocket Grunts went back to their rooms," Cilan whispered, "so we still have to be extra quiet."

"I'm coming for you Pikachu…" Ash mumbled to himself…

"Ash," Dawn asked him, "what Pokémon did you bring here?"

"I brought Charizard, Infernape, and Quilava since fire types can warm up the freezing weather. Back at the Ice Path, I also got Heracross and Buizel to come along with me."

"Nice choices, Ash," Brock said.

"So cool," Serena said in awe.

"You must have a lot of Pokémon," Clemont said to Ash.

And so, Ash and his friends, along with the Team Rocket trio and Blaziken Mask, made their way to the storage chamber that held Pikachu.

Storage Chamber

Jessie unlocked a special door using her id card. The door opened up directly inside the storage chamber, and everyone was delighted.

"We're finally here," Brock said.

Pikachu, who was still inside his bolted canister, was now in clear sight.

"Hey, it's Pikachu!" Dawn pointed out.

"Yeah, Pikachu's right over there!" Misty said.

"Pikachu!" Ash said, running to him with joy.

"Pika!" Pikachu rejoiced when seeing Ash.

However, when Ash was within 13 feet of reaching Pikachu, all of the lights turned on in the storage room.

"I thought I'd find all of you here," Archer grinned deviously.

"It's Archer!" Ash's friends said in shock.

"Oh no!" Jessie, James, and Meowth said.

"I made sure to stay awake for this very reason," Archer stated. "You're not getting away with any of our belongings!"

"Pikachu is my Pokémon, not yours!" Ash yelled. "And I'm here to get him back from you!"

Ash moved on to trying to break the canister. "Heracross, use Megahorn on Pikachu's container!"

Unfortunately, the powerful Megahorn was no good; the case was just bolted down too strong.

"Try Megahorn again!" Ash commanded.

"You're not getting anything," Archer declared. "Houndoom, go and stop him with Crunch attack!"

Houndoom gnawed into Heracross's horn and then tossed Heracross feet away from the canister.

"Hahaha!" Archer cackled. "Now roast Heracross up with Flamethrower!"

"No, Heracross!" Ash cried. Then he remembered what he did in the Johto League when facing Gary's Magmar. "Heracross, use your wings to blow the flames away!"

"Urgh…that still doesn't mean you're going to win," Archer said with pride.

Meanwhile, the group was cautiously hiding behind some of the boxes in the storage room. They formed a plan to sneak Pikachu out without Archer noticing.

"Tracey, let's use this chance to cut Pikachu open from the glass!" Misty told him.

"Good plan," Tracey agreed, "I'll use my Scyther to do so!"

"Just be sure not to get caught," Brock warned.

"Right," Tracey said. "Ok, Scyther, come on out! Make your way to Pikachu's container and use the boxes as cover so you don't get caught. Then use Slash to break the case and save Pikachu!"

It was at this time where Ash decided to take the battle to the next level. "But I am going to win with this! Heracross," Ash commanded while pressing his Key Stone, "Mega Evolve!"

Conveniently, Heracross was already holding its Mega Stone, and when it Mega Evolved, it gave out a massive amount of energy that everyone could feel sizzle through the air!

"Wow," Dawn praised, "go Heracross!"

"Mega Heracross, use Megahorn!" Ash told Heracross.

"Block it with Iron Tail!" Archer ordered Houndoom desperately.

Heracross was just too powerful in its Mega Evolution; the mighty Megahorn completely pulverized Houndoom to the wall.

"Finish it with Hyper Beam!" Ash said.

Scyther finally made it to Pikachu and was able to go unnoticed. "Scyther," Tracey said, "use Slash to cut the glass!"

But before Scyther could even start, a red blast of fire singed Scyther.

"Oh no!" Tracey cried.

"Who was that?!" Cilan trembled.

Heracross reverted back to his regular state and went back to Ash's Pokeball since the battle with Archer ended. After Houndoom fainted, five Genesect, along with the other four Team Rocket Executives, confronted the now exposed group of Ash and his friends.

"Glad you guys could make it," Archer said to the executives.

"And it's a good thing we have these Genesect," Proton added.

The Genesect

"You mean the Genesect were in this storage room this entire time?!" Tracey cried in shock after Scyther fainted.

"Grr…do you guys have to be this bad?!" Misty yelled in anger.

"There won't be a bad and good when we take over the world!" Ariana declared.

"There will just be Team Rocket!" Atlas proclaimed.

"Genesect is a Unova Pokémon, not a Johto or Kanto one!" Iris screamed.

"How did you guys get your hands on such power anyway?!" Cilan shook in fear.

"That's an easy one," Petrel said.

"After Team Plasma got captured, Team Rocket swooped in to secretly retrieve their assets!" Proton explained.

"One of the most significant possessions just happened to be their Genesect project," Petrel continued.

"They just happened to have these legendary Pokémon created, so we took them for ourselves!" Ariana said.

"And now Team Rocket is even stronger than it was before!" Atlas laughed.

"Team Plasma?" May wondered.

"They got captured?" Brock also thought.

"Yes," Archer responded, "and the trio we have to thank is standing right over there."

"Field agents Jessie, James, and Meowth," Proton clarified while pointing them out.

"Team Rocket did that?" Max pondered.

"Whatever," Bonnie replied, "they're still no good!"

"Jessie, James, and Meowth were all a vital part of Team Rocket's success," Ariana admitted.

"But they won't be anymore!" Atlas mocked them.

"Our boss has let them go," Archer softly said. "Guess that means he knew beforehand that the three of them would ruin our mission."

"Mission?" Serena asked.

"What exactly are you guys plotting?" Clemont demanded.

"Simple," Archer replied, "we plan to overtake the world with strong Pokémon like always! Any other information is unnecessary even for the likes of you kids!"

"Hey, I'm not a kid!" Jessie retorted.

"We were the best field agents Team Rocket has ever had!" James argued.

"Well you're not a part of them anymore," Blaziken Mask told the two.

"We're against them now," Meowth declared.

"Pikachu is our possession now, so I suggest you back off now while you can," Archer warned.

"Pikachu is Ash's!" Dawn protested.

"So give my Pikachu back!" Ash yelled while running at them.

"Genesect," Archer simply said, "take care of him with Techno Blast!"

"Quilava," Dawn cried, "Hurry up and protect him with Flamethrower!"

"You too Fennekin," Serena said, "deflect the Techno Blast with Ember!"

Ash nearly avoid being annihilated by the life-threatening projectile, but he was determined to not give up on Pikachu. "Go Quilava, try melting the case with your own Flamethrower!" Ash called out. But unfortunately, the fire had no effect.

"I think it's time we introduce you to our newest recruits," Archer decided. "We nicknamed these Genesect based on the elemental drives they are wielding."

"Douse holds the water-type Douse Drive," Proton stated.

"Shock holds the electric-type Shock Drive," Petrel explained.

"Burn holds the fire-type Burn Drive," Ariana said.

"Chill holds the ice-type Freeze Drive," Atlas continued.

"And Rocket holds the newly created Rock Drive, an experimental rock-type drive. These drives change the type of one move and one move only: Techno Blast. And when this blast hits you, it's almost certain that the move's incredible power will render your Pokémon unable to fight the newt round!" Archer finished.

"Enough talk," Ash declared. "I'm getting Pikachu and that's that!"

The Fury of Five

Proton sneered, "I think I'll teach him a thing or two now. Douse, use Techno Blast!"

"Look out!" Serena yelled. Fennekin, jump in front of Ash and use Ember!"

"Quilava, use Flamethrower!" Dawn cried.

"You too, Quilava!" Ash also said.

The water-type Techno Blast didn't even have to try to smash through the fire-type attacks. The sheer force of the cannon left the three fire Pokémon basically lifeless.

"Oh no!" Serena cried. "Return, Fennekin!"

"Quilava, return," Ash and Dawn solemnly said.

"Grr…" Dawn murmured in frustration, "give Ash back his Pikachu! Buneary, Mamoswine, freeze them up with Ice Beam and Ice Shard!"

At the sight of Pikachu, Buneary was even more determined than ever to save Pikachu. But freezing the executives in ice would no longer be and option.

"Burn," Ariana commanded, "use Techno Blast!"

"Oh no," Ash said, "the fire is going to melt the ice! Buizel, help out with Water Gun!"

It, however, didn't do anything to stop the inevitable.

"We have to put you down for good now!" Atlas commented.

"All of you," Petrel commanded, "use Magnet Bomb!"

Then Clemont said, "Errr….this looks bad! Chespin, use Pin Missile and Bunnelby use Mud Shot!

"Help them out also!" May said. "Venusaur, use Petal Blizzard! Wartortle, use Hydro Pump!"

"Use Water Gun Marill!" Tracey said loudly. "Sleep Powder, Venonat!"

"Pansage, use Bullet Seed!" Cilan commanded in desperation. "Stunfisk use Sludge Bomb and Crustle use Rock Wrecker!"

This barrage clash was even greater than the one Petrel had back in the hallway. And once again, it was Team Rocket's side that was winning. The Magnet Bomb ended up hammering through any blast in its way, causing major damage to the Pokémon attacking.

"Never underestimate the legendary power of legendary Pokémon!" Archer proclaimed. "Let's finish this, team!"

"Burn," Ariana said, "use Techno Blast on Mamoswine!"

Mamoswine fainted.

"And use it on Chespin, Venusaur, Venonat!

Chespin fainted.

Venusaur fainted.

And Venonat fainted.

"Shock," Petrel said, "use Techno Blast on Marill and Wartortle!"

Marill fainted.

Wartortle also fainted.

"Douse," Proton said, "use Techno Blast on Crustle and Buneary!"

Crustle fainted.

And Buneary, who was ready to save Pikachu, fainted too.

"Freeze," Atlas said, "use Techno Blast on Bunnelby and Stunfisk!"

Bunnelby fainted.

And Stunfisk fainted as well.

"I've saved this one for you, Ash!" Archer said. "Rocket, use your Techno Blast on Buizel!"

Buizel was too frozen in fear to dodge. Buizel fainted also….

"Return," the trainers said in sorrow. But they were not ready to give up.

"Go Pachirisu, Piplup, and Togekiss!" Dawn called. "Let's be the ones to strike this time, Ash!"

"Right," Ash agreed. "Nothing can stop us if we work together! Go Heracross and Charizard!"

"I agree," May said. "Beautifly and Munchlax, let's go!"

"We can't just stand here!" Iris yelled. "Emolga, Excadrill, and Axew, let's go!"

"Politoed and Starmie," Misty said, "come on out!"

"And let's help too, Dedenne!" Bonnie told Dedenne, who just jumped out of its pouch.

"Ok guys," Ash said, "let's work together! Heracross, use Hyper Beam and Charizard use Flamethrower!"

"Pachirisu, use Discharge!" Dawn called out. "Piplup use Bubblebeam and Togekiss use Air Slash!

"Beautifly, use Silver Wind," May told her Pokémon, "and Munchlax, use Solarbeam using the ceiling lights!"

"Axew, use Dragon Rage!" Iris said. "Emolga use Hidden Power and Excadrill use Focus Blast!"

"Politoed, Starmie," Misty said, "Use Hydro Pump!"

"Dedenne," Bonnie said, "use Thundershock!"

The result was one enormous flurry of timed power attacks, but once again, it was nothing more than a speck in Team Rocket's eyes.

"Dodge it!" the executives all said.

"Now it's our turn!" Ariana said. "Burn, use Blaze Kick on Heracross!"

"Block it with Megahorn!" Ash desperately said.

But Blaze Kick was just too strong, so Heracross fainted.

"Chill," Atlas said, "use Ice Punch on Togekiss!"

"Shock," Petrel said, "use Thunderbolt on Beautifly!"

"Dodge it!" May and Dawn said in unison.

"Just hit Beautifly instead!" Atlas improvised.

"You too, Shock," Petrel followed, "go for Togekiss!

This time, Togekiss and Beautifly couldn't dodge the attacks and so they unfortunately fainted.

"Douse," Proton said, "use a large Techno Blast on Charizard, Excadrill, Munchlax!"

"Dodge it, Charizard! Ash quickly said.

"But doing so left Exacdrill and Munchlax wide open for a blast they were not ready to handle. Both Excadrill and Munchlax fainted.

"You won't believe a Genesect knows this move!" Archer said. "Rocket, use Rock Wrecker!"

"Starmie, Politoed," Misty said, "stop it with Hydro Pump!"

"Help them out with Dragon Rage, Axew!" Iris yelled.

"Go Croagunk," Brock said, "help them out with Poison Sting!"

"Suprisingly, the efforts were actually working in stopping the megaton Rock Wrecker.

"It's working, keep it up guys!" Misty encouraged.

"Back Rock Wrecker up with Techno Blast!" Archer said.

"Oh no!" Misty, Iris, and Brock screamed.

But it was just too bad; Croagunk, Axew, Starmie, and Politoed all fainted.

"Shock, use Thunderbolt on those electric types!" Petrel commanded.

"Dedenne, use Thundershock!" Bonnie said.

"Pachirisu, use Discharge!" Dawn called out.

"Emolga, use Volt Switch!" Iris said.

"Now back it up with Techno Blast!" Petrel added.

"Dedenne, Pachirisu, and Emolga skidded across the floor attack and they all fainted.

"All we have left is little Piplup and Charizard, eh?" Atlas noticed.

"Let's utterly destroy Piplup first!" Proton yelled in anger. "Techno Blast!"

"Techno Blast as well!" the other executives commanded.

"Oh no!" Ash cried. "Charizard, protect Piplup!"

Charizard covered and protected Piplup with its entire fierce, dragon-like body. But even with its Charcific Valley training, it would not be able to handle to extreme power from the signature of attacks of five legendary Pokémon. Charizard was done for.

"Aww, Charizard's down…" Tracey sighed.

"But look, Piplup is still up!"

"Piplup's ok?" Dawn wondered. "Thanks Ash, phe – "

But before Dawn could be relieved, a flaming kick smashed Piplup into the wall.

"Nice Blaze Kick, Burn," Ariana cackled.

"PIPLUP!" Dawn screamed.

"With Pokémon, like these," Archer said, "Team Rocket is the strongest in the world! Giovanni will be pleased."

"I say we end this for real," Proton grunted, "Douse, charge Techno Blast to 100%!"

"You too," the other Executives commanded their Genesect.

"Oh no, what are we going to do?!" Max cried.

"All of our Pokémon all gone!" Serena gulped in fear.

Clemont, Tracey, Cilan, Brock, Bonnie and Dawn could agree with Serena!"

"Then we just have to just work with what we still have!" Iris said. "Dragonite, let's go!"

"Right, Infernape, go!" Ash said.

The Team Rocket trio were hiding behind some boxes in sadness while watching the group's many defeats. Even Blaziken Mask was hiding seeing even the strongest Pokémon go down, but he finally managed to regain his confidence.

"I'm not hiding anymore!" Blaziken Mask declared. "Blaziken, Mega Evolve!"

"Try using Mach Punch!" Ash told Infernape.

"Flick it with Blaze Kick," Ariana simply said.

Infernape was slammed helplessly by the legendary's power.

"Let's Mega Evolve also," Misty told May.

"Right," May agreed.

"Blaziken," May said.

"Gyarados," Misty said.

"Mega Evolve!" they both declared in unison.

"Only a few more seconds, and we'll be ready to fire!" Archer wickedly grinned.

"What are we doing here?!" Jessie demanded. "We have to do something!"

"But for who?!" James frantically blurted.

"The executives might accept us if we help them," Meowth thought.

"But look!" James pointed out.

The power felt from their charged blasts was astounding. The executives started their count down.

"Ten….." Atlas said.

"That blast is headed straight for us!" James finished.

"Eight…." Petrel said.

"We're going to get hit either way!" Meowth cried.

"Six," Ariana said.

"Get ready guys to hold this one back," Ash told the Pokémon.

"Four…." Proton said.

"It's going to be over for all of us!" James cried.

"Not if I have anything to say about it!" Jessie said running out from hiding.

"Two….." Archer said. "One….."

"Ok, g – " Ash started.

"WAIT!" Jessie yelled.

"FIRE!" all five executives commanded.

"Wobbuffet, go in there and use Mirror Coat!"

"What?!" Archer yelled.

"Mirror Coat?!" Proton stumbled.

All of the charged Genesect power was fired only to be redirected right back at them. It was a huge attack, but there was nothing Wobbuffet couldn't reflect after his many experiences.

"Here's our chance!" Cilan said.

"Mega Blaziken," May and Blaziken Mask both said, "use Flamethrower!"

"Use Flamethrower also, Mega Gyarados!" Misty said.

"Flamethrower, Dragonite!" Iris called out.

Infernape got up from the ground in its Blaze state after being flicked by the Blaze Kick.

"And you use Flamethrower with everything you've got, Infernape!" Ash yelled to the top of his lungs.

The enormous energy directed at the Genesect was extremely destructive, especially with the Mega Evolutions, special abilities, and charged power. The gigantic blast tore a massive opening in the wall to the cold mountain night outside. Smoke from the astonishing attack filled the room for over 15 seconds, even with the hole in the wall. And the seemingly robotic and all powerful Genesect stopped 'debugging' and finally got defeated for once.

"They actually beat our Genesect?" Ariana said in shock.

"Yeah!" all 16 of them said, now all together.

The Announcement and the Aerial Chase

All of a sudden, speakers from throughout the entire base turned on. It was an important message from Giovanni. Though the sky was still pitch black, it was almost morning when the announcement was made.

"This is Giovanni, your leader, speaking," Giovanni announced. "All of Team Rocket in this base, report to the hangars. Use every air vehicle stored to make your way to the Sinjoh Ruins; it is time. Make sure to bring all of our important assets, including the Genesect and Pikachu."

Archer was already holding the canister holding Pikachu. All five executives returnes the Genesect to their Pokeballs and fled to behind the storage room.

"Where do you think you're going?!" Ash demanded. "Give my Pikachu back!"

"Let's follow them," Clemont told everyone.

"Right," the rest of the group said.

They made their way to the hangar only to see that vehicles were already leaving in mass proportions.

"So long kids," Petrel laughed at them while taking off with his fellow executives.

"Oh no!" Dawn said.

"What are we going to do now?" May said.

"There's one heliplane left over there!" Brock pointed out.

"Let's get it!" Misty said.

"And let's hurry up!" Tracey rushed.

All 16 of them somehow managed to get on it untouched.

"I know how to fly this," James said confidently.

"Go for it," Meowth and Jessie said, who had the 'shotgun' seats.

The rest of the passengers were sitting orderly behind the Team Rocket trio.

"Is everyone buckled?" Cilan asked everyone.

"Stop waiting," Iris impatiently blurted, "let's go!"

The heliplane was in the air in a matter of seconds. As soon as they took off, Max and Bonnie went right to sleep. However, it took a while to finally catch up to them. In front of them was a squadron of Team Rocket aircraft that they needed to stop.

"There they are!" Blaziken Mask pointed out. "After them!"

But as if they already knew they were coming, a missile destroyed one entire side of the plane. The heliplane was in for a crash landing.

"We're going to crash!" Serena cried.

"Brace yourselves guys!" Brock said.
"I'll try to hold the plane up as long as I can," James trembled.

"According to the map," May said, "we're really close to the Sinjoh Ruins!"

"But we're not going to make it…." Cilan sighed. "We're going to crash!"

"And all of our Pokémon have fainted in battle," Tracey said.

"How are we going to heal them?" Misty wondered depressingly.

"That's if we make it!" Iris screamed.

For some reason, Max and Bonnie were still sleeping.

"If we're close to the ruins, then I'm not giving up on Pikachu even if we crash!" Ash declared.

"Way to stay positive," Dawn said. "I just hope we have that chance…."

"But either way, this is going to hurt!" Blaziken Mask panicked.

"Yikes!" Meowth screamed.

"We're going to hit the ground now!" Jessie yelled in fear. "Try pulling up the plane, James!"

"I am trying!" James protested.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah!" they all screamed together.

Yet it was at this time when the sun was starting to rise. Either way, this didn't stop the inevitable. And so, the flaming heliplane made its fateful descend into the snowy forest below. The aircraft did so with Ash, Brock,Tracey, Misty, May, Max, Dawn, Iris, Cilan, Clemont, Bonnie, Serena, Blaziken Mask, Meowth, Jessie, and James all on board.

To be continued…..
