Hola. I'm aiming to get four chapters up (this being the third) by tomorrow, and I'll try getting another two-four out tomorrow. Last chapter, Owen found out the Icirrus City gym was closed because Brycen is a movie star, but he battled Dante, and won thanks to the efforts of Krokorok, Snivy, and Tranquill, who evolved into Unfezant after. Now, Owen and co. will attempt to save Unova from JT, who has summoned the fearsome Reshiram at the top of Dragonspiral Tower. Will they be able to do it? Let's find out!
Nodokalover: Interesting moveset, but Puff won't learn many more moves. I don't want to give her an OP moveset

"So you're telling me that you've competed in four other leagues and caught forty other Pokemon before you came here?" Rebecca asked in awe. Owen nodded, causing the youngest member of the group to put her hands over her mouth in shock. "That's so cool! I bet you'll go really far in the Unova League," the girl predicted before downing her glass of soda.
"I hope. We've been training pretty hard the entire time we've been here," Owen replied calmly while watching the television that was located above the exit of the dining hall. "I'm more focused on qualifying rather than how well I'll do," Owen fibbed. Suddenly, the battle that was being aired on the television was cut off by a 'Breaking News' segment. One of the waiters grabbed the remote and turned the volume up so everyone could hear.
"Tom, we're flying around Dragonspiral Tower, located in Icirrus City, and there is a teenage boy standing on the top of the tower with the legendary Reshiram! We can't get close enough to him, but civilians are advised to evacuate the city. Back to you," a man announced into a microphone. The video switched back to the battle between a random trainer and some gym leader that had a white beard, which completely covered his mouth.
"Was it just me, or did that look like JT?" CJ asked while looking around at his three traveling companions.
"Dear god. We need to go stop him!" Owen screamed before bolting from the table and handing his money to the waiter. Fate, Rebecca, and CJ followed after Owen and Snivy while also giving the waiter their money.

After several minutes of running through the snow, Owen arrived at the base of Dragonspiral Tower. Following right behind him - in order - were Rebecca, CJ, and Fate. After catching up to Owen, the three teens began panting before Fate asked Owen the question that was on CJ's and Rebecca's minds.
"Why is JT up there?"
"He's the leader of Team Solar. I battled him at the top of Celestial Tower," Owen answered with his back turned to his three friends. "He's planning on taking over Unova, and who knows what else he'll do after that?" Owen asked rhetorically while walking towards the steel bridge that connected Icirrus City to the large tower. Nobody asked another question, and they followed Owen into the tower before calling out their strongest Pokemon.
"Leaf!"
"Hez!"
"Deerling!"
The three aforementioned Pokemon appeared in front of their trainers and looked around at the base of the tower, which was rather large. It was a basic square room, but the stairs were located in the right hand corner. The group of four trainers and their four Pokemon carefully walked over to the stairs, but were stopped when they heard a booming roar.
"RAAAAM!" The tower began to shake because of the force behind the Pokemon's roar, which unnerved everyone. Despite his nervous state, Owen made his way up the stairs, and the group followed after him. Snivy, who was on Owen's shoulder, began to shake once Owen stepped onto the second floor, which had a large wooden circle in the middle of it. The wooden structure was wrapped around a large beam, which had a flight of stairs heading up to the third floor.
"Woah! I am not going on that thing! I'm staying right here!" Rebecca shouted after seeing the significant gap between the swirls in the circle. Deerling nodded in agreement with his trainer, and he moved up against Rebecca's leg.
"I'll stay with her," CJ told Owen and Fate while glancing at the old wooden structure.
"Fine," Fate said while rolling her eyes. "Hez, return. Venom, come on out!" After returning Hez to his Pokeball, Fate's Venomoth appeared and flew around the beam before staying by Fate's side. "Venom, if me or Owen falls, catch us with Psychic." Venom nodded at the instruction, and Owen started creeping around the circle. Snivy held onto the shoulder of Owen's coat while looking down at the black abyss below the squeaky structure.
"Don't worry, Snivy. We're gonna make it across," Owen proclaimed while making his way around the circle quickly. After a minute, he and Fate managed to reach the stairs, and they waved to Rebecca and CJ as they made their way to the third floor.
The third floor had a large staircase that was a semicircle, and connected to a large floor. Owen and Fate carefully made their way up the steps and stepped on the stable floor, but stopped when they saw a large creature standing in front of a flight of stairs. It had dark blue skin that looked rough, a pair of long and muscular arms, a tan stomach, a pair of strange wings that were slightly crooked, and a red face.
"Druddigon, the Cave Pokemon. It warms its body by absorbing sunlight with its wings. When its body temperature falls, it can no longer move."
"That looks really strong," Owen said to himself.
"We need to be really careful. It doesn't seem like Druddigon's noticed us," she whispered while Venom fluttered above her. Unsurprisingly, Druddigon turned around and locked its eyes on Owen and Fate. The dragon type let out a powerful roar and began running towards Owen and Fate, which made Fate run out of the way. Owen, however froze up in fear. "Owen, watch out!" Fate cried out while looking at the fourteen year old. As Druddigon reached Owen, the teen closed his eyes and waited to be attacked. Much to his surprise, he felt Druddigon's scaly arms wrap around him before the dragon hugged him tightly.
"Ow! Druddigon, please let go of me," Owen requested while the air in his lungs was escaping. The large Pokemon let go of Owen immediately and it helped Owen back up. The wild Pokemon beamed at Owen while Snivy hopped onto his shoulder, and he looked at Druddigon in confusion. The rough skinned Pokemon pointed up at the next floor and began to act out a series of action as if it were playing charades.
"I think Druddigon might have gotten kicked out of where it sleeps. Am I right, Druddigon?" Fate asked the friendly Pokemon.
Druddigon nodded emphatically.
"We'll help you get your place back, Druddigon. Let's go!" Owen exclaimed while charging towards the steps. Druddigon ran after Owen while cheering, causing Fate and Venom to sweat drop before following the two. After making their way up the stairs, Owen and Fate looked around at an empty room before their eyes locked on to the next flight of stairs.
"That's weird. It doesn't look like there's anything here, Druddigon," Fate told the dragon type, who also looked around in confusion. "Owen, I'll stay down here and make sure there isn't anyone that bothers Druddigon," Fate told her friend.
"Right. Snivy, let's go!" Owen exclaimed before running towards and up the stairs. After reaching the top of the stairs, Owen saw JT standing in the middle of the peak. A gigantic white dragon stood behind him, and it let out another roar, causing Snivy to shake violently.
"Hm?" JT grunted while turning. Upon seeing Owen in his coat and his backpack strapped over his arms, the leader of Team Solar began to laugh to himself. "So you lived? I'm surprised."
"Shut up. What are you doing up here?" Owen interrogated while looking around at the forest behind JT, and at the city behind himself..
"After you kept me from destroying that damn bell, I decided I'd take control of Unova by brute force! With Reshiram by my side, no one will stand up to my might!"
"Oh yeah? What makes you so sure?" Owen inquired aggressively. "I bet I'll stop you right here!" he vowed. JT began to laugh at Owen's proclamation, causing the younger trainer to growl lowly.
"Reshiram, use Fusion Flare," JT commanded coldly. The large white dragon standing behind him began to roar while its tail turned pure red. Then, a large ball of fire appeared above its mouth, which was pointed to the sky, and it launched the attack at Owen.
"Aaah!" the teen shouted while trying to dive away from the attack. He was unable to do so, but for some reason the Fusion Flare vanished. Looking around in confusion, both Owen and JT tried finding what caused the Fusion Flare to miss. Suddenly, Owen's backpack began to shake, and he searched through the bag to find what was causing the shaking. Owen's eyes shot wide open when he realized what was moving around in his backpack, and he pulled out the Dark Stone.
"Wh-What is that?" JT stammered while staring at the glowing black rock in Owen's hands. The amber eyed teen didn't answer, and the Dark Stone began to float into the air while releasing a wave of light that blinded everyone. After the light died down, Owen moved his arm away from his eyes and so did Snivy. JT did the same, and his jaw dropped when he saw what was in front of Owen.
A large black dragon appeared, and it had humongous black hands with large fingers. It also had a pair of huge wings, and there was a small swirl of hair on the top of its head. It's legs were bigger than Reshiram's, and it's tail looked like a bee's body. It also gave off a plasma colored light, and its eyes were bright red.
"What kind of Pokemon are you?" Owen asked the black dragon standing in front of him. The Pokemon turned and looked down at Owen before bowing, causing JT to look at Reshiram, who appeared to be nervous about the black Pokemon's presence.
"My name is Zekrom, and I will be your partner in this battle," the dragon answered with a solemn nod. Zekrom turned and looked at Reshiram and then glared down at JT. "Together, we will defeat these two!"
Damn… it's about to get intense, people! Owen and Zekrom will do battle with JT and Reshiram next chapter, so get ready for some crazy stuff. I doubt it'll be a long chapter because it's only going to be one battle… so I'll probably have it up in the next couple of hours. Till next time, peace out.
Next Chapter: Light vs Dark: Heroes Clash!
