Moemon Ranger: Memories of Oblivia Revoir
Chapter 87
"Where am I?" Kellyn asked, frowning. He was standing on an enormous podium in the middle of the ocean, the podium stretching out far into the sky, Kellyn overlooking all of Oblivia.
"Hope you aren't afraid of heights." Tsubasa, who was standing next to him, said. "Here is where we shall call another member of our fighting force."
"Who?" Kellyn asked, frowning.
"Here she is." Tsubasa said, frowning. "The same phoenix who once loaned your cousin Aoshi her strength."
A moemon descended from the sky, her body shining with the colors of the rainbow. She wore a red dress with golden ribbons cascading down it, as well as golden and crimson hair flowing down her back. She had bright red eyes, and wings emerging from her back that were red, white, gold, green, and a large assortment of other colors shining in unison. As she descended down from the heavens, a rainbow trail of light followed after her. She hovered above the podium, shining like a rainbow itself.
"Greetings, foolish mortal." The moemon said, smiling. "I am Ho-Oh, ruler of the sky."
"Whoa…" Kellyn said, shocked.
"This moemon is the only one capable of quelling the rage of the Legendary Birds." Tsubasa said, frowning. "You must make her lend you her strength."
"And how am I supposed to do that?" Kellyn asked, frowning.
"Simple." Tsubasa said, shrugging. "Capture her."
"How the heck am I supposed to do that?" Kellyn asked, frowning.
"It is not needed." Ho-Oh said, shaking her head. "Just as the one before ruled over all fire, you rule over all birds. I shall gladly loan you my strength."
Ho-Oh held her hand out, and a symbol appeared before Kellyn, in the shape of glowing star. Kellyn recorded this symbol in his styler. Ho-Oh opened her mouth and let out a roar, and soon the three birds flew around the podium.
"We shall all grant you our emblems." Ho-Oh said, the Legendary Birds presenting their symbols to Kellyn, each a different shape of a star combined with a bird. Kellyn recorded these as well."
"Now then, how may we be of assistance?" Ho-Oh asked.
"Excellent." Tsubasa said, opening a gate that she used to travel back to where Lori was. "Lori. Kellyn has succeeded in taming the birds."
"Just as I expected." Lori said, nodding. "Petal, are you ready? We're going to tear down that barrier."
"Right." Petal said, nodding. Tsubasa snapped her fingers, and a gate opened up beneath Petal and the moemon, and they found themselves back at Alaude's House.
"No one's here…" Kana said, frowning.
"They must be trying to find a way to fight back." Petal said, frowning. "It doesn't matter. I want you guys to stay here."
"Are you sure?" Kana asked. "We could be of help…"
"No, you guys need to find Alaude and the others." Petal said. "Pichu and I are going to attack that thing head on."
"Okay." Aeris said, nodding. "Good luck."
Petal summoned Latias, and she and Pichu climbed onto her back. Latias soared up into the air, flying towards the floating island.
"Are you ready?" Latias asked, frowning.
"I'm ready." Petal said, nodding. Latias flew closer to the island, which then began firing on them.
"It's alright." Latias said, frowning. "I can create a psychic barrier to protect us." Latias formed a field of psychic energy in front of her, and flew closer to the barrier, avoiding the blasts of energy from the weapon.
"Okay, there's the barrier." Petal said, drawing the sword she'd taken from the altar. She swung with all of her might at the barrier, but nothing happened.
"…What." Petal said, frowning. She swung her sword again, but it just bounced off. She continued to do this, but it had no effect.
"What's wrong with this thing?" Petal exclaimed, staring at the sword, and then saw the sticker on it.
NOTE. THIS SWORD IS FOR DECORATION PURPOSES ONLY AND CANNOT ACTUALLY CUT THROUGH FORCE FIELDS.
"Useless piece of junk…" Petal said, frowning. She pulled her fist back and hit the barrier at full force, creating a sword of energy to tear a small hole in the barrier that allowed her to slip through. Latias landed on the Ancient Weapon, Petal and Pichu getting off of her.
"Now, if that will be all, I have to go before the barrier regenerates." Latias said, smiling. She flew through the hole in the barrier, which sealed up behind her.
"Well, I guess no one's following us." Petal said, frowning. "If it's just the two of us, that's not very good. We should probably find a way to shut this barrier off from the inside."
"Right." Pichu said, nodding. "But first we should GET inside."
"True." Petal said, nodding. "Luckily, I think that's a door over there." Petal walked across the cracked tile and pried open an old stone door, she and Pichu sneaking inside of it.
They walked through the ancient hallways of the floating weapon, surprised at how advanced the ancient technology was.
"Okay so where do you think they would hide a force field generator?" Petal asked, frowning.
"I'm not sure." Pichu said, frowning. Suddenly, they saw Steelheads appear in front of them.
"Take the intruders!" The Steelheads shouted. Petal and Pichu turned and ran the other way, ducking into the first door they saw.
"Hey, Petal, look!" Pichu said, pointing at three tubes, within the tubes were three large slabs of rock with three different symbols etched on them, the symbols of the Legendary Birds.
"I wonder…" Petal said, frowning. "Are those the symbols of the Legendary Birds?"
"Maybe…" Pichu said, frowning. "If they are, then this machine might be connected to the force field somehow…"
"Well, there are buttons in front of the tubes, so I think that's a positive sign." Petal said, pushing the three buttons, the symbols disappearing. The Ancient Weapon began to shiver, and the force field around it was atomized.
"There we go." Petal said, grinning.
EoS: So, now that the force field is down, the others are able to help her! But will she need their help?
Lauren: Probably not.
