Characters

Misty 18- California Hotel.

Alright guys, sorry for not posting the stories lately. The internet at school went down Friday so I couldn't post anything. Anyway, this is going to be the last combat chapter of the story. The last two are going to be about the end of the Pokémon War with Roqua the Organization that is composed of Team Rocket and Aqua because Giovanni defeated the former Aqua Leader and took control of his men and how Roqua kidnapped Misty to get Ash and succeed only to be defeated by a Ghost Team one of the deadliest stealth fighters who are composed of four men. The last two chapters will also be about peace and the reuniting of the primary characters just like the Title says. Anyway onto the final battle of the story. Who will be the Victor of the bloodiest war in Pokémon history? The Ghost Team and the American and English Armed Forces of 105,000,000 and their low fueled Armored Vehicles and Fighter Aircraft? Or will Team Roqua and their force of 350,000,000 and their gassed up Armored Vehicles and Fighter Aircraft?

Chapter 21

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. Lead sits up and looks at the door that is being knocked on. "What is it?" He asks. "Lead, we got to get to San Francisco from here now. Oak just messaged us that a Marine battalion needs ammo and fuel and he wants us to give some of the ammo we received from the Marine outpost and give it to them and that we should stay with them until we are needed again." Arctino says through the door.

"Roger Arctino. I'll be out soon." Lead says getting up and walking over to his bag and checking out the ammo storage. "Let me see. Each Poke ball has a thousand rounds of ammo. I have 5. Arctino has 6, Zapdos has 5, and Moltres has 10. So let's see. 5k+6k=11k+5k=16k+10k=26k of ammo. O.K. so we can give the Marines 11k and help them out a bit and still have enough for future missions."

"Have enough what for future missions?" Sabrina asks rubbing her eyes. "Ammo." He answers. "Wake up. We're about to go. Better go and enjoy the shower."

"O.K." She mumbles getting up and walking into the bathroom. "Alright girls. Get up." He tells them gently tapping them and they reluctantly get up. "Why do we have to get up?" Lily whines.

"We're leaving soon so enjoy the shower and hot tub and tub. We're leaving in an hour." He answers walking over to the kitchen and turning on the stove then getting some food out of the fridge and getting pans. "Don't take long in the tub or shower turns and do the hot tub before you shower or take a bath."

"We won't take long." Misty says and seeing Sabrina not there and then hears shower running. "Dib's on first bath." And then runs to the tub followed by the other girls.

After each girls gets clean Lead showers while the girls eat and when he's finished he sees they have 5 minutes left so he shrinks and Poke balls the girls stuff they bought and tells them they're about to go and he gets the other three guys to come over.

"Alright, we're here in Redding, California and we need to get here. San Francisco California." Lead say pointing at a map. "But that's hundreds of miles away." Moltres says. "We teleport." Arctino says simply. "Alright, we have two minutes so let's arrive a minute early." Soof. Zapdos says teleporting everyone and all their stuff. Ving.

"Alright folks here we are." Zapdos says as look around as he and everyone else picks up their stuff. "Here's the base Oak wanted us at."

They walk up to a gate and just to be safe, they put their hands above their heads and stop when two Marines in a tower appear.

"What do you want?" One asks as the other aims at them.

Moltres release 5 Poke balls of ammo. Arctino release 2. Zapdos release 1. I'll release 3. And release them slowly. We don't want them to open fire on us. I want to see if they were contacted by Oak. Lead says telepathically to his team and do as told.

"Stop going for the Poke balls!" The Marine yells, but they keep doing it anyway. "Prepare to shoot the Pokémon that comes out." But when they release the contents they see ammo instead of Pokémon. "It's the Ghosts! Everyone stand-down!" the Marine says. "Let them in." after hearing let them in the Ghost return the ammo to the Poke balls and enter the base.

"Thank you for the resupply. We need ammo bad. Only 250 out of the 550 of us have a weapon with ammo." The Marine tells them. "My name is Master Gunnery Sergeant Stone."

"I'm Ghost Lead, Lead for short. This is my team. Arctino, Zapdos, and Moltres. Oh and the girls are Misty, Sabrina, Daisy, Lily, and Violet. And we brought you 11,000 rounds of ammo that we got out of our stockpile." Lead says as he introduces them.

"Pleasure to meet you all. What do you mean your stockpile? Isn't it from one of our Command's?" Gunny Sergeant Stone says. "Commands can't help us. They're trying to help the citizens. We have a stockpile of Ammo, Fuel, Med-Supplies, whatever we might have needed to succeed our last mission. Oak said we stay here until we are needed. That fine by you?" Lead asks.

"I have no problem, plus you brought ammo and fuel that we need so you can stay however long it takes." Gunny Sergeant Stone tells him. "Thank you." Lead says as they shake hands.

One year later.

"We have like wow, we been here a year in two hours." Daisy says looking at her calendar. "So?" Lily asks doing her nails. "Don't you remember? That day in the mountain. Prof. Oak said it would take like, a year and half. Well it's been year and now we have enough people to like, fight back." Daisy answers sitting on her bed. "Can I borrow your pink nail polish?" She asks. "Sure." Lily says tossing it to her.

Violet, Misty, and Sabrina's room.

"Wow a year of nothing but training and learning how to survive in a situations." Violet says laying on her bed looking at the ceiling. "Technically it will be a year in about an hour and thirty minutes." Misty corrects her. "The training wasn't that bad." Sabrina says.

"Yeah it was. None of us got our date because of it. He's probably forgot about it by now." Violet says. "That's the reason you didn't like the training?" Misty asks. "Yes." She answers. "Wow, Well I'm going to take a shower. Get me if I'm needed" Sabrina says. "O.K." Misty says laying on her bed as Sabrina leaves for the shower.

Lead, Arctino, Moltres and Zapdos room.

"So what you're telling us is that we and this Marine battalion have to go to Washington D.C because Roqua is going to send 1,000,000,000 men to take it?" Lead asks Oak who has contacted via sat phone and hologram. "Yes. One of spies heard that if they fail then Roqua will disband because there will be nothing left to fight for." Oak says. "O.K, Moltres go tell Stone. We'll pack up and get going. Later Oak." And Lead ends the message and goes to Daisy and Lily's room "Pack up, we got a mission." Lead says then going to Violet, Misty, and Sabrina's to tell them the same. Two hours later they Ghosts and the girls meet up with Stone.

"Everyone ready Gunny Serge?" Lead asks. "Their ready. They have everything they need. The Aircraft have fuel and are ready transport." Gunny Serge Stone answers. "We can't use the Aircraft, we're going to teleport because we can't risk a dogfight (Airplanes shooing at each other.), and lose some planes. We are going to teleport the Aircraft too, the tanks also. So could you get them all in one area please?" Lead asks. Stone nods and goes to tell the news and after thirty minutes everyone is on the airfield. "Ready?" Lead asks and Stone nods. "Alright team, teleport in 3…2…1 NOW!" Soof. Sounds as they teleport VVVRRR… echoes as they go through the wormhole that makes them teleport. Ving echoes a little as they appear in from of the White House and the Ghost collapse to their knees from exhaustion since they teleported longer than they were supposed to.

"You guys O.K?" Sabrina asks. "We're fine. Go tell get somewhere to fire from. Marines take up defensive positions with the Army and English forces, Marine pilots prepare your planes. The Air force is on stand-by you guys prepare don't worry you won't get shot down or killed we used Protect on you while we were teleporting it will take around five tanks to kill you and 10 rockets to bring down your planes." Lead says as him and the others get up. A small Zip. Sounds as a bullet pierces Zapdos's chest and he falls over. "SNIPER! TAKE COVER!" one of the Marines yells as Lead and Moltres grabs Zapdos by his arms and drag him away behind a wall as Arctino snipes the sniper. "Enemy Aircraft! Pilots! To Your Planes!" another Marine yells as jets zoom overhead dropping bombs, thanks to the Protect that the Ghost gave them they fell or flew a little but were able to get back up

"Zapdos you O.K bro?" Moltres asks. "Yeah, I'm fine see." Zapdos says showing no shot mark on him. "Good, Girls your part of the Ghosts now. GHOSTS OPEN FIRE!" Lead yells as Roqua grunts and elites charge out of nowhere.

FAHFAHFAHFAHFAHFAHFAH, AND RATATATATAT resounds around them as their M4X's and M60 50 Cal. Machine gun fires at the oncoming men.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM echoes and they turn around to see the Marines have linked up with the Army and English's Artillery and they were firing shells from Abram Tanks and they saw the American and English in all positions and firing as well. "Zapdos, can you get on the White House's roof?" Moltres asks. "Yeah, Why?" Zapdos asks. "Because, they're going to get their own tanks and also anti-tank rockets and missiles and our guy's tanks aren't invincible." Moltres answers. "That's true. Zapdos on three we're going to provide cover and you're going to run for the White house and find a way onto the roof." Lead says as they lay against the wall to avoid the incoming gunfire. Zapdos takes off his rucksack and puts four Poke balls on his belt and gets ready to make a dash for the White House.

"1…2….3 ZAPDOS GO, GHOST COVERING FIRE!" Lead yells as they start firing at everything that moves in front of them and Zapdos sprints at full speed toward the White House and since some of the experiments that they were increased their speed he got to it in less than 2 minutes now the problem was how to get on the roof. So he ran for the stairs and would climb from the highest window. "Arctino, get your rifle and provide secondary sniper fire so Zapdos won't have as much work.' Lead says getting down and reloading. "Roger." Arctino says getting his SR25 Semi Auto-Full Auto his custom built sniper rifle of choice for the mission.

"Left side!" Moltres yells and Lead shifts and begins firing at the left side where Roqua troops were attempting to overrun them with a full out charge but are quickly cut down by Moltres M60 50 Cal. Machine Gun and the ones who survived that were killed by the girls and Lead's M4X's. "There's like, to many." Lily says as they crouch down and reload.

"We got hold, this is the first line and the soldiers behind us are the secondary line. If we fall back then they will have to go in and beside the White House as third line of defense and we will take the second line and if we are forced to fall back again then we will be with the soldiers around and beside the White House and it will be our LAST line of defense. That's why we can't let them gain any ground." Lead tells them.

"Psshhh, they couldn't gain ground if we were blinded." Moltres jokes as he continues to fire at the enemy troops. "Arctino beside you!" BOOM thunders as Lead yells to Arctino because an enemy almost got him with a knife but instead his chest rips open and thunder echoes. "Getting slow mate." Zapdos says through the team mic. "You owe me one." "I'll make it two" Arctino says continuing secondary sniping. Two hours pass as the Roqua charge in smaller and smaller waves and about another hour passes before no more appear.

"Did we win?" Violet asks peeking over the wall. "I don't know." Lead answers and gets of the mic. "Zapdos, what do you got man?" I'm am seeing empty streets boss. Don't see squat not even trash. I don't like it sir." Zapdos responds and starts looking around and something tells him to turn around. BOOM… BOOM… BOOM. Thunders across the White House as his fire his M110 50 Cal. "LEAD THEIR COMING FROM THE REAR!" He yells into the mic. He hears the American and English troops yelling into their mics. "FIRE LEFT SIDE!" "OH SHIT RIGHT SIDE!" Lead gets on the mic and calls Stone.

"Gunny Serge, Their charging the back Zapdos slowing them down with sniper fire, you need to get some soldiers back there or we fail and Roqua will control everything until our Commands have enough people for a revolt." "Understood Lead. Sending troops to the back." Stone replies. "Lead, they have us surrounded." Arctino tells him. "We're surrounded? Good, now we can kill the bastards in any direction." Lead answers him. After three more hours of combat, the sun slowly sets on the White House and the soldiers hear the Roqua grunts yell to pull out for the night.

"How you guys doing?" Lead asks his team in a whisper and they all respond well. "Lead, I need sniper ammo, I used 3,950 rounds and I know because I just counted my remaining bullets and I only have fifty left. Will you send someone with ammo and an MRE please? A partner would be nice to you know? It's lonely up here." Zapdos tells him.

"Alright, tell me who you want to me send and I will." Lead tells him. "Moltres can get here without the stairs can't he?" "Yeah. You know the girls are part of the team to?" Lead responds. "I know Lead, I don't want them to carry the weight in my rucksack, plus it would take too long because, I see movement and I need it ASAP. No offense to the girls. Plus we wouldn't have much to talk about." Zapdos says. "Alright bro. Moltres will be there in 3 minutes." Lead says. "Thanks Lead." Zapdos says before watching the movement some more.

"O.K Moltres, Zapdos wants you to take him his bag and get up on the roof without taking the stairs." Lead tells him. "Understood sir, I am coming back?" He asks. "Negative, Zapdos doesn't want to be up there by himself. Plus he sees movement and if something goes wrong an M60 will fix it." Lead answers. "Roger that Lead. Tell me when to move." Moltres says getting in a sprinting position. Lead peeks over the wall and he sees no problem. "Arctino see anything?" He asks. "Uh, uh" He responds. "Alright, Go." Lead says and Moltres grabs Zapdos's bag and charges the White House 1 minute later he jumps onto the White House pillar and climbs it up to the roof. "Wow, 3 minutes on the dot man." Zapdos says as Moltres pulls himself up.

"Heres your stuff." Moltres says handing it to him. "Thanks man." Zapdos says getting out ammo. "No problem man. How's sniping up here?" Moltres asks. "Its O.K. Haven't got shot yet you know?" Zapdos answers as Moltres sits down like him "Yeah, I know what you me…" Sick echoesas Moltres doesn't and liquid sprays out his chest and he rolls down the roof but grabs onto the ledge.

"SNIPER!" Zapdos yells into the mic before grabbing Moltres hand. Bang resounds as Arctino finds the sniper and eliminates him.

Zapdos almost had him pulled up when another Sick echoes and pierces Zapdos's back and blood sprays Moltres face and the shot causes Zapdos to let go of Moltres. There's a CRUNCH as he hits the ground and Zapdos gets up and switching his HUD to Thermal he finds the sniper BOOM thunders as the sniper falls from the tree.

A Ping echoes as a bullet ricochets off his helmet and he fall back followed a loud "CHARGE!" and the FAP, FAP, FAP, FAP, FAP and RATATATATATATATAT. Of the soldiers weapons followed by the sounds of AK47's the weapon of choice for Roqua resounds on all four sides of the White House as they charge it knowing half the troops are asleep. Except they were wrong. BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. Echoes all over as C-4 the soldiers placed everywhere begins to go off. "ALL UNITS FIRE AT WILL!" Someone yells and everyone opens fire. "Moltres you O.K. bro?" Zapdos asks. "Yeah I'm coming up." Moltres answers pulling himself up the ledge. "Let's kick ass." And Zapdos opens fire with his sniper rifle and Moltres with his M60.

Lead and them.

"Left side!" Arctino yells. "On the roof!" Sabrina yells. "JETS! ALL UNITS GET DOWN!" Lead yells as everyone including the ghosts brace for impact. BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM echoes all around them as the Roqua jets drop bombs all around them. "Grunts in the yard!" They hear someone yell and the firing of rifles and automatic weapons. "Clear!" Someone else yells. The ghost stand up and fire at every person they see until they have to reload but and once they do they start over. Shoot, reload, repeat. Both sides do that even after dawn breaks. "There's too many!" Arctino yells. "Lead we got to do something. Our troops need rest."

"Get all the troops, pilots and drivers then get Moltres and Zapdos, then teleport them to Oak on Seafoam Island 25 we can handle it from there. Go, Girls Cover Fire!" Lead says as Arctino does as he is told and Lead gets on Dexter to talk to Oak. Contacting, link established in five seconds. Link established. "Oak, we need a nuke at the White House now! Roqua grunts are everywhere. Arctino, Zapdos and Moltres are going to teleport the soldiers to Seafoam Island 25." Lead tells him quickly.

"Lead, I don't think I can send a nuke. Too much collateral damage." Oak tells him.

"Professor, send the nuke or I will launch a Kinetic Strike (HUGE rods made of Titanium that drop from Space and use kinetic energy and gravity to destroy a target with extreme accuracy and will destroy cities. Read Tom Clancy's: End War for more info.) and destroy this city completely." Lead says.

"Fine. I will send the nuke. ETA, 5 minutes." Oak says. "I hope you know what you're doing." And he hangs up. Lead, nuclear object headed for current location, ETA 4 minutes 37 seconds and counting. Arctino, Zapdos and Moltres run and take cover behind the wall with Lead and the girls.

"THEIR EVERYWHERE!" Violet yells ducking as a hailstorm of bullet bounce off the wall. "Beside us!" Misty yells. "Behind!" Sabrina yells

"Everyone is gone Lead. We're all that's left." Moltres says. "I know." Lead says running about twenty feet away and placing C-4 down on the ground running back and detonating it leaving a huge crater and the Lead tosses a Bubble Shield into it and the shield fills the hole.

Nuclear device's ETA 1 minute 30 seconds and counting Lead goes through his bag and pulls out five gas mask and gives one to each girl. "Everyone, Gas mask up! Into the crater!" Lead yells firing at the Roqua grunts who have entered the White House's lawn while everyone puts on their masks and gets in the hole. "Lead come on get in!" Zapdos yells at him as he continues to fire.

"Sorry man. No mask. Wouldn't make any way." Lead apologizes before crouching and continuing his firing. Nuclear device ETA 1 minute and counting "We'll share man." Moltres tells him. "Negative can't risk your health." Lead answers. Nuclear device 30 seconds and counting.

"LEAD GET IN PLEASE." The girls asks beginning to beg. "Sorry, I guess I won't any of the dates I owe you." Lead says as Arctino gets out of the hole and grabs Lead's arm and he continues to fire with his free arm. Nuclear device ETA 15 seconds and counting.

"Lead come on get." Arctino says trying to pull him in. "Sorry guys. Arctino let go." Nuclear device ETA 10…9….8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1. A loud WWWWWWIIIIIIIINNNNNEEE echoes throughout the Capital as the Roqua grunts stop and look for the source followed by the BOOM, SSSSSSSSSWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSHHHHH as the nuke detonates and blows everything not grounded away including Lead who gets thrown away by the force as does Arctino since he wouldn't let go of him and they flip through the air until Arctino loses momentum and rolls across the ground and Lead stops as he smashes into a tree before laying against. And then everything is still and silent except the static of the mic and Dexter.

"LEAD! ARCTINO!" Moltres yells climbing out of the hole and running towards his brothers followed by Zapdos and the girls Moltres kneels beside Arctino and sees that his clothes are ripped and there a bruises and something possibly broken but had nothing radioactive in him.

"LEAD!" Zapdos yells as he gets to him followed all the girls they see his skull bandana in shreds and his dark blue glasses cracked and blood dripping out his mouth. "Ah shit he's bleeding! Moltres get the medical stuff from Arctino's bag now! He's not regenerating! Hurry! Hell no, the experimental drugs are mixing with the radiation." Zapdos says. "I got it!" Moltres says opening a first aid box.

He turns around when Arctino groans and get up. "Arctino your O.K bro." Zapdos says happily. "Yeah, No Lead." Arctino says his voice happy at first that he survived then changes when he sees Lead. "Hold on guys." Arctino says as an orange box appears around them and the air clears then the Ghost begin to try and heal their leader.

While the men are desperately try to heal him Misty sees a towel like object on his left wrist under his watch and when she pulls it out, and she becomes confused when she sees the handkerchief that she gave Ash before she had to stop joining him on his Journey. (I read she gave him a handkerchief and also read a Misty Lure. But I didn't remember which one plus I don't remember from the last episode either so I just used both.) "Like what's this?" Violet asks picking up a piece of something that all the paint has been ripped off and was missing pieces. After a couple seconds Misty recognizes it.

"It can't be." She says to herself. "What can't be what?" Daisy asks. Misty walks over to Lead. "What are you doing?" Moltres asks as she reaches for his Glasses and Bandana. "Hey Misty stop." Zapdos says. Arctino remains oblivious as he works on Lead and Misty pulls off the glasses and the remains of the bandana and Arctino looks up when all the girls gasp. "Shit." he says.

"It's him." Lily says surprised.

"It can't be him." Sabrina says.

"We must have inhaled some Radiation and now are like, hallucinating." Violet says.

"We're not hallucinating." Daisy says.

Misty only stares. "They would have found out eventually." Arctino says getting back to work. "Yeah." Zapdos sighs. "It shouldn't have been like this though." Moltres says.

"So, like he's been here the whole time?" Daisy asks. The men only nod.

"So the entire time Lead has been…" Sabrina starts.

"Ash." Misty finishes.

"Yep." Arctino says as he takes of his glasses and bandana. "We're the definition of Ghost." The girls just stare as he pulls them off and Brock appears. Then Moltres takes his off and Lance appears, last Zapdos removes his and Gary appears.

The look down when blood spatters a little on Arctino/Brock's hand followed by a weak cough.

"Told you and Giovanni, we would kill them all." Ash says weakly. "You're alive." Brock says happily. "Damn you're tougher than a Ryhorn on steroids." Moltres/Lance says. "Glad to see alive man." Zapdos/Gary says.

"Please, you think Roqua or a nuke could kill me? I got hit with two beams by Mew and Mewtwo and I am still here kicking ass." Lead says and he clenches his teeth when Brock sprays his whole chest with Biome Foam.

A static hologram appears and Oak flutter into view. "We have information the reason there was so many Grunts there is that they left all the Regions just to take the White House." Gary looks over the message and sees that it was delivered 10 minutes ago. "Huh, 2 minutes before the nuke hit." He says.

After working on Dexter Lance hands it to Gary who sends a message to Oak that all Roqua members are dead and they need an immediate evac and have a man down in the field. Two hours later Gunny Serge Stone and five other of his Marines arrive in a SeaKnight Chinook Standard Marine transport and place Ash on a stretcher who went unconscious after Gary sent the message and the others greet them with their real names this time except the girls and then board the SeaKnight.
