After arriving on Cinnabar Island for an emergency Gym Leader meeting, Summer met up with Samir, Weldon, and the other Gym Leaders. Koga challenged Summer to a rematch, where she emerged victorious and earned the Soul Badge. Then, in a plot twist, Koga, Lt. Surge, and the Cinnabar Island Gym Leader Blaine, informed everyone that Giovanni was the mastermind behind Team Rocket. Everyone decided to help the three with their plan to stop him. Now, Summer is traveling with Blaine to the Sevii Islands. What will they find there, and will they succeed in their mission?

Chapter 38: Strengthening a Fighting Spirit

Blaine, Lightning, and I watched the dark waves bob back and forth from a moving ferryboat. It was still before dawn, the stars twinkling in the sky.

"So where are we going, Blaine?" I asked. I was still a little sleepy, but the ocean winds forced my eyes open.

He snickered. "How about a riddle first?" He cleared his throat and asked, "What sleeps during the day but shimmers at night?"

My Pokémon and I stared blankly at the man. Maybe I was sleepier than I thought. "You do realize I'm not from the Kanto Region, right?" I answered sarcastically.

He groaned. "Come on! That was an easy one." I continued to blankly stare at him, so he gave up. "Fine, party pooper. We're going to Mt. Ember on One Island. It's a dormant volcano but on rare occasions, the peak bursts into flame."

"So would the flame bursts be from Moltres' visits?"

"Well!" he scoffed mockingly. "You are a thinker, just not the fun kind."

Fun?! I know all about fun!

Lightning shook her head at my annoyed face. "Come on, Summer. You know you're not fun all the time."

"Oh be quiet, Lightning."

The old man chuckled. "So, Professor Oak chose you for his experiment, I see."

I was surprised. "You know about that?"

"Of course! All the Gym Leaders know. Why do you think we don't question you about talking to your Pokémon?"

I pondered. "You make a good point. Was that why you chose me for the mission?"

Blaine became serious. "Yes, but there is another reason. It's a hunch though."

I was about to ask, when the ferry's horn blew. I looked towards the north and saw a small town with a large mountain in the background. Based on the wide base and narrow peak, it appeared to be Mt. Ember. After we docked, we disembarked and walked along a path called Kindle Road.

"So what's your hunch about me, Blaine?" I curiously asked. The path was long, but it was straight, with Mt. Ember being the endpoint.

Blaine looked at the sky turning purple. "Have you ever wondered why certain things happen?"

"Is this another riddle?"

He chuckled. "I'm afraid not, Summer. Just a curiosity." He continued looking at the sky. "I've heard from Samir you saw a Legendary Pokémon before you left Hoenn. Have you ever wondered why it appeared before you?"

"No...I've never thought about it too much. I always thought it was a sign that I can start a journey far from home."

"Interesting," he mused, looking at the volcano that was coming closer towards us. "I believe Entei visited you for another reason. But I'll tell you later. We're here."

We looked up and saw the 1,000-foot volcano towering over us. There were two cave entrances: one guarded by two burly men in karate gi and the other with an overhead sign that read, 'Mt. Ember Spa.'

"Looks like Red let him know already," Blaine said. "Come along, Summer."

Confused, Lightning and I followed him through the spa entrance. Fresh steam immediately hit my face, temporarily blinding me. Once I regained my vision, I saw a large hot spring with two smaller ones. Two tanned, muscular men were relaxing in the left spring. One had bushy dark blue hair and rough facial features while the other had short spiky hair held back by a red headscarf.

The two noticed us and shouted, "YOU'RE LATE, BLAINE!"

Blaine was upset and stomped on the ground. "We're right on time! You were supposed to be waiting for us outside!"

The man with the headband shrugged. "We took advantage of the vacant springs since you didn't show up. Besides, you found us anyway. Come on, Bruno."

Blaine hastily covered our eyes, shielding me from what would have been a possibly scarring moment. When he lifted his hands, I saw Bruno wearing burlap pants and a black belt. The other wore a karate gi, like the two outside.

"So," Bruno greeted in a rough, but caring voice. "You must be the girl Blaine and Koga mentioned. I'm Bruno, a member of the Kanto and Johto Elite Four."

The other man grunted and clasped his left fist with his right hand. "And I am Kiyo!" he shouted enthusiastically. "The Master of the Saffron City Dojo!"

"Hi," I waved. "I'm Summer, and this is Lightning, my Pikachu." She waved as well.

Bruno nodded, "Nice to meet you both. Red told us about your meeting." He sadly looked at Blaine. "I'm sorry you had to go through it again."

Blaine sighed. "Well, I needed to get it out of my system."

Yeah…he really did…

"How do you know about Blaine's past, Bruno?" I asked.

He grimaced. "Let's just say I avoided the blow, but my friends took the damage."

"I...I see."

Bruno shook his head and crossed his arms. "Anyway, let's do what we're here for. Are you ready to climb the volcano?"

I nodded.

"A riddle before we go!" Blaine joyfully shouted. Bruno and Kiyo looked at their friend hopelessly.

"Nothing's changed, huh, Blaine?" Kiyo lamented. "All right, what is it?"

The elderly man cleared his throat. "What two 'Bs' are needed to climb a challenging volcano?"

I had no clue what the answer was. I looked at Blaine, who grinned at the two warriors pondering.

After some thought, Bruno replied, "I see. You want us to split up, as two groups of brain and brawn."

Blaine took a party popper from his right pocket and set it off. Confetti flew around the Elite Four member, who was slightly amused and annoyed.

"Congratulations, Bruno!" he gleefully shouted. "As your reward, you can choose your partner."

Bruno smiled. "So I have to choose between you and Summer. In that case, I'll pick her."

Kiyo gasped. "You mean I'm stuck with him?!"

His friend shrugged. "I did answer the riddle first."

The Dojo Master muttered to himself. "All right, Blaine. Let's go first into the right tunnel." The two men exited the spa, one more excited than the other.

Bruno then turned to me. "Before we go, Summer, I wanted to ask you something."

"Oh, sure. What is it?"

"I understand that your starter was a Torchic."

I was slightly surprised he knew so much about me. "Yeah, he's a Combusken now. I nicknamed him Blaze. Would you like to meet him?"

He nodded. "I would."

I let Blaze out, and he gasped at the strong man in front of him. "He...he's so big…" he whispered.

Bruno chuckled. "I try to keep this physique every day."

I was confused. "You know what Blaze said?"

He sighed. "I can only understand the body language of a Pokémon. But you have a special gift, from what I heard, of understanding Pokémon speech."

I sheepishly shrugged. "Well, I wouldn't call it a gift."

Bruno looked at Blaze intently. Blaze and I were confused until he said, "Blaze seems to be lacking something in his battle style."

My Pokémon sadly looked at me. "Is there, Summer? I thought we fixed it when we battled Koga."

"Why don't we talk to Bruno? From the looks of it, he is a Fighting type user."

Blaze nodded. Lightning was intrigued but still tried to hide it from her teammate.

"Bruno," I asked. "Blaze has been feeling down about something for a while. He's very good with close range attacks, but his strongest move is Flamethrower. I don't know how I can help him with getting stronger close range attacks."

Bruno placed his fingers under his chin in a thinking pose. "Hm… Why don't we use this climb to help Blaze strengthen his arms and legs? That way, it'll be easier for him to learn those stronger physical attacks."

I grinned. "Sounds good to me. What do you think, Blaze?"

"I like it!" He punched the air, psyching himself up for the training.

Bruno crossed his arms. "Now, you need to practice those movements as well, Summer."

"Really, why?"

"In order to truly bond with a Fighting type, the Trainer must understand the Pokémon by mimicking its movements. For example…" He sent out a grey muscular Pokémon with four arms. It was like a Machoke, but much more powerful.

[Machamp, the Superpower Pokémon and the final evolution of Machop. It is impossible to defend against punches and chops doled out by its four arms. Its fighting spirit flares up when it faces a tough opponent.]

"You see," Bruno continued. "Vishnu and I have trained together since he was a Machop. Because of this, we are able to move as one. Watch us carefully."

The two flexed and punched in unison, without looking at each other for cues. The movements were so fluid and effortless that my Pokémon and I couldn't help but be amazed.

Bruno and Vishnu stopped, then bowed to each other. The man faced me and Blaze and said, "Now, let's see what you two can do."

I nervously moved my arms in a circle while Blaze kept looking at me, trying to copy my waving. Then Blaze punched forward, and I tried to match his movements. Instead of punching in unison, I ended up almost pulling a muscle.

As I rubbed my right arm, Bruno and Vishnu sighed disappointedly. The Elite Four member covered his face with his right hand and moaned, "We've got a long way to go… All right then. Time for a training montage."

"A what?" Before I got an answer, Bruno left the spa.

Vishnu suddenly carried Blaze and me in his arms. The Machamp then followed his Trainer outside and into Mt. Ember. Lightning was amused by the situation and closely followed us. Inside Mt. Ember, the orange walls of the cave emitted some radiant heat. Vishnu put us down and I was able to see two dark tunnels.

Bruno pointed towards the left tunnel and shouted, "Summer! Blaze! Sprint to the end of the tunnel and back!"

I was taken aback by his sudden order. "Wait, what?"

"DON'T ASK QUESTIONS, MOVE!"

Blaze and I hastily ran through the tunnel, and after a few minutes, we returned to the entrance, exhausted.

Bruno shook his head in disapproval. "NOT FAST ENOUGH! AGAIN!"

Blaze and I reluctantly sprinted again.

At least he didn't throw things at us…

Five minutes later…

"PUNCH THOSE ROCKS!" Bruno roared as Vishnu and Lightning threw rocks at Blaze.

Although Blaze was the one breaking them, I stood right behind him, trying to mimic his movements. Blaze was able to destroy each rock, but I had a hard time keeping up. Any time I lowered my arms, Vishnu threw two rocks at Blaze. This kept going for almost an hour. As soon as I got the timing down, Blaze was too tired to continue and collapsed. I instinctively ducked, and the boulder flew over us.

"At least you have good evasion techniques," Bruno noted. "Five minute break, then back at it."

Blaze and I groaned while Lightning got us some Berries.

Twenty minutes later…

After the punching exercise, Blaze and I hopped along the path while trying to follow Bruno. I could tell Blaze was getting better while I was getting worse. I buckled, but tried to continue. Blaze saw me struggle and ran back to pick me up.

"Are you okay, Summer?" he asked with concern.

"A little tired, but fine," I muttered. He helped me up and I felt stronger being next to him. "Let's hop together."

"Of course!" We held each other and jumped. Our movement was much more consistent and I was happy we made good progress.

An hour later…

Blaze and I practiced moving together again. Compared to earlier this morning, we were able to pose without looking at each other. It wasn't perfect, but I felt Blaze and I were bonding better than any of our previous battles and training. After we finished, we bowed to each other and laughed. Bruno and Vishnu clapped proudly. Lightning gave Blaze a slight smile and he returned it, making her blush.

"Excellent progress, Summer and Blaze," Bruno praised. "Compared to other students I've trained, you two have improved the fastest."

Blaze and I bowed to the Fighting-type user. "Thank you for helping us, Bruno and Vishnu."

Bruno then crossed his arms. "Now for the final test." He looked at a cave opening with light just ahead. "We're approaching the peak of the volcano. What lies ahead, that's for you to figure out."

We approached the exit, and the sunlight temporarily blinded us. When my eyes finally adjusted, I couldn't believe what I saw.

Blaine was talking to a bird Pokémon with fiery red and orange wings. It was much larger than any Pokémon I've seen, and it looked so magical.

[Moltres, the Flame Pokémon. Moltres is a legendary bird Pokémon that can control fire. If injured, it is said to dip its body in the molten magma of a volcano to burn and heal itself.]

Kiyo was standing nearby, and we approached him. The Karate Master saw us and nodded.

"How goes the talk?" Bruno asked.

Kiyo shrugged. "Fine, I guess. I can only understand what Blaine is saying."

"Blaine can talk to Moltres?" I asked. "How is he able to do that? I used my Pokédex and I still can't understand it."

"It has something to do with his past, but I'm pretty sure he'll tell you," Bruno remarked.

Moltres looked up and stared at me intently. Blaine saw we arrived and confidently faced us. "Summer! Do you want to know why you were chosen to help me?"

"Sure...why did you choose me?" I asked, preparing for his response.

Blaine laughed. "Because you have seen one of the Legendary Pokémon associated with volcanoes, Entei of the Legendary Beasts!"

I was shocked. "H-how did you know that?" Bruno and Kiyo were equally as shocked.

"I will answer your question after this riddle: what happens when two Trainers' eyes meet?"

I became serious. "I see, you want to battle me, don't you?"

Blaine clapped enthusiastically. "Excellent! You solved it!"

I casually shrugged. "It's... not much of a riddle…"

"Anyway! I was originally going to battle you with my Pokémon, but Moltres showed up earlier than expected." Moltres kept staring at me, as if it was trying to understand me as a person. "After talking with her, she's eager to see why Entei saw you. So now, I challenge you to a Gym battle using just Moltres!"

"Huh? Isn't that against protocol or something?"

Bruno shook his head. "According to League rules, a Gym Leader may accept Gym challenges if a crisis prevents him/her from battling in their assigned Gym."

"Bruno is correct!" Blaine gleefully shouted as he stood across from me. Moltres gave a sharp cry and spread its wings, releasing small embers into the sky. "So Summer, what do you say? You can use three Pokémon and you'll have the first move as well." He then fiddled with his mustache.

It sounds like I would have the advantage, but Moltres is a Legendary Pokémon… I need to combine everything I learned in order to beat Blaine.

"I accept. Go, Lightning!" I shouted. Lightning eagerly ran forward and released some sparks, wanting to test her strength against a Legendary Pokémon.

"Use Thunderbolt!" I commanded, pointing at the bird. Lightning quickly charged her cheeks and unleashed a powerful electric bolt.

Blaine laughed. "Simple attacks don't work on a Legendary!" Moltres hurled itself into the air, easily dodging the super effective attack.

I gasped. Moltres is so fast! And it didn't need to rely on Blaine's commands to dodge!

"Moltres, Flamethrower!" Blaine shouted.

"Lightning, dodge with Quick Attack!"

The Pikachu jumped over the searing flames and tried to gain some distance, but the attack eventually caught up to her. She winced as the fire scorched her fur, but she refused to let it bother her. She then nodded to me, and I understood what she wanted to do.

"Let's try Thunderbolt again!" I shouted.

"You still have problems not trying something different, do you?" Blaine scoffed, adjusting his glasses. "Moltres, Agility!"

The Legendary Pokémon speedily flew around the Thunderbolt and charged at Lightning with its glowing wings. The Pikachu braced herself and smirked.

I smirked as well. "Now, use Sweet Kiss!" Lightning kissed the air, and a pink angel touched Moltres' face. It became confused, flew off course, and crashed into the ground.

"Now, Thunderbolt, max power!" I commanded, glad the confusion kicked in.

She charged up her cheeks and released the most powerful Thunderbolt I've seen. Not only did it hit the confused Moltres, but it also caused the ground to crack. A mini geyser of lava shot out of the crack and hit Moltres' wings. Suddenly, its eyes gleamed, and the majestic bird flew back into the air, as if nothing happened.

"I forgot about lava's rejuvenation properties for Moltres!" I gritted.

Blaine smirked. "Nice try, Summer. Looks like the gamble didn't pay off. Now, Moltres! Flamethrower!"

As the bird charged its attack, Lightning tried to create sparks with her cheeks, but she was exhausted from the last attack. Knowing Lightning had no way to defend herself, I shouted, "Blaine! I'm taking Lightning out of the match!"

Moltres stopped the attack and looked at me curiously. Blaine nodded at my decision. "I agree. Good choice, Summer."

I picked up my tired Pikachu and placed her next to Blaze. He got few Oran Berries from my backpack and worriedly gave them to her. She weakly nodded and slowly ate one. The Combusken then glared at Moltres while the Legendary paid no attention.

"So Summer," he gloated as he played his mustache. "I have the lead, but let's see what your other Pokémon can do."

"Go, Rocky!" The Onix roared as he exited his Pokéball. The two Pokémon were face to face, but Moltres wasn't intimidated by the height disadvantage.

"Well then, let's see what you two can do," Blaine said, interested. Moltres shrieked in agreement.

"Use Rock Throw!" He formed a boulder and threw it at the Bird Pokémon.

"Moltres, Agility!"

The Legendary Pokémon once again avoided the attack and increased its speed, making it hard for Rocky to focus.

"Rocky, let it come to you!" I commanded, remembering my battle against Koga. Rocky nodded and eyed the quick Pokémon cautiously.

Blaine was intrigued by my strategy. "Fine, Summer. We'll play your game. Moltres, Wing Attack!"

Moltres gave a sharp cry and charged at Rocky. Rocky slightly wagged his tail, and I smiled.

"Rocky, bat Moltres away with Iron Tail!"

He roared and smashed his approaching opponent with his silver tail. Moltres was knocked to its left. I thought I saw it slightly smirk with excitement.

As it started to straighten out, I shouted, "Rock Throw!"

Rocky nodded and hurled another rock. The boulder hit its mark and Moltres crashed into the ground, causing volcanic dust to fly into the air. I covered my face and thought the battle was over. But the Legendary Pokémon slowly rose and shrieked. More geysers of lava burst out of the dormant volcano and touched Moltres' wings. The Pokémon grinned and proudly flew back into the air.

Blaine laughed heartily. "I told you, Summer. Moltres is too tough to be beaten by an average Pokémon! Moltres, finish Rocky with Hidden Power!"

Moltres nodded and closed its eyes. Seventeen small balls of white energy formed and circled around it. It then flapped its wings, sending the balls towards a stunned Rocky. I thought the move was a Normal type, but to my shock, the balls released green sparks as the hit the Rock Snake Pokémon. Rocky collapsed onto the ground, unable to move.

"Good thing I taught Moltres Hidden Power, huh Summer?" Blaine gloated. Moltres rolled its eyes and continued looking at me.

These two have such a weird dynamic…

"Thanks for your help, Rocky," I praised, returning the exhausted Pokémon. I then looked at Lightning and Blaze. The Pikachu looked much better while Blaze continued to angrily stare at the strong Pokémon flying in the air.

"What're you going to do, Summer?" Lightning asked with concern. "Moltres is so tough! It can take our super effective attacks…"

I saw Moltres returning Blaze's glare and smiled, "Maybe it wants to battle a certain Pokémon. And I have a good idea who it is. Blaze, let's do this!"

Blaze eagerly ran up and smirked at Moltres. "Let's show Moltres a thing or two!" he shouted. I took a deep breath, and Blaze did the same. I closed my eyes and focused. Suddenly, I felt Blaze and I were in sync, and we both but up our arms in a fighting stance.

"Interesting battle pose, Summer," Blaine mused. "I see you were training with Bruno during your trek. Give us everything you got!" Moltres nodded in agreement as if it had been waiting for this battle for a while.

I looked up and shouted, "Use Flamethrower!"

Blaze deeply inhaled and released a stream of fire. Moltres released its own Flamethrower, which overpowered the Combusken's move and pushed it back.

I forcefully moved my arm to the left. "Blaze, dodge with Quick Attack!"

Blaze nodded and easily evaded the flames.

"We got a real battle on our hands now!" Blaine grinned, adjusting his glasses. "Moltres, Hidden Power!"

Moltres nodded and released the small white orbs at Blaze. He evaded every one, but the impact of the Hidden Power on the ground caused the dust to fly up again.

"Now, Moltres, Flamethrower!"

"Blaze, use Focus Energy!" I shouted through the cloud.

Moltres seared the ground with its flames, but Blaze narrowly escaped by cartwheeling backwards.

I looked up and pointed at our opponent. "Quick Attack, Blaze!"

Blaze nodded and sprung upward, using the Focus Energy to gain more speed.

Blaine snickered. "Moltres, Wing Attack, then Flamethrower!"

Moltres timed Blaze's approach, then plunged him downward with all of its might. As Blaze fell, the Flamethrower accelerated the descent. Blaze smashed into the ground, creating more lava geysers to erupt. After the eruptions, he slowly tried to stand.

"Blaze, can you keep going?" I asked.

Although he was heavily panting, he muttered, "Yeah…"

Lightning was really worried about her teammate and shouted, "Please, Blaze! Don't overdo it!"

He glanced at his friend and grinned. "Don't worry...Lightning… I…won't…"

He stood up and looked at Moltres determinedly. The Legendary acknowledged his strength but shook its head disappointedly.

Blaze then looked at me with determination. "Summer…"

I smiled. "Blaze. Normally, I wouldn't let you continue. But if you want to keep going, I'll let you. We'll beat them together." We both took a deep breath, and I shouted, "Jump and use Double Kick!"

Blaze launched himself off the ground with all of his strength. Once he was over the bird, he descended towards Moltres. He and I waited for the right moment for the first kick.

Blaine fiddled his mustache. "It's no use, Summer. Moltres, Flamethrower!"

The Legendary nodded and unleashed the attack. Blaze was surrounded by the flames, but he refused to give in.

"Go, Blaze!" I shouted, kicking to my right side.

Blaze kicked at the same time, using gravity to propel himself forward. Moltres was shocked and was kicked in the face, hurtling him downwards. As Blaze continued to dive towards Moltres, he was suddenly surrounded by a white glowing light. We watched with surprise as Blaze grew taller and leaner. When the light faded, his body was deeper orange, and his head feathers were long and light yellow with a V-shaped crest in the front. His legs were now covered with orange and beige, while his arms became thinner with three clawed fingers.

Blaze flipped forward and his left leg started to ignite. I watched in awe as he hit the stunned Moltres, who had just recovered from the first kick. The Legendary Pokémon crashed to the ground while Blaze backward somersaulted towards me. After the dust cleared, Moltres slowly stood up. Blaze and I were ready for another attack when the Pokémon flapped its wings upwards, then nodded.

Blaine chortled, wiping a tear from his eye. "Well! Moltres said she's forfeiting the match. So you win, Summer and Blaze!"

"We did it!" I cheered and ran towards Blaze. He happily picked me up and gave me a powerful hug. Lightning watched us with relief and sighed happily.

After being released from his grip, he was much taller than I was up close. I scanned the new Pokémon with my Pokédex. [Blaziken, the Blaze Pokémon and the final evolution of Torchic. It learns martial arts that use punches and kicks. Every several years, its old feathers burn off, and new, supple feathers grow back in their place.]

I teared up slightly as the Torchic I first started out with evolved into one of the most powerful final starters. "You reached your final evolution, Blaze! How do you feel?"

He happily growled. "I feel great, Summer!" he said in a deep voice. "Though it might take some time to get used to the height and voice."

We laughed as Lightning climbed back onto my shoulder. The two seemed to have patched up their friendship as they smiled gratefully at each other.

Blaine then walked towards us. "I'm impressed, Summer! Your Pokémon were able to defeat a Legendary." Blaine then took a red and orange flame-shaped pin out of his lab coat pocket and handed it to me. "You may not have won at my Gym, but you beat me nevertheless. You deserve this Volcano Badge. Quite appropriate, don't you think?"

"I do. Thanks Blaine." After I put my new Badge away, Bruno and Kiyo clapped heavily. I was so absorbed with the battle, that they slightly startled me.

"What a battle worthy of a Fire and Fighting type!" Bruno praised. Blaze slightly blushed and bowed.

I did the same. "Thank you, Bruno."

He blushed as well. "Oh, I only helped with the beginning. You two made the progress worth it."

"I agree," Kiyo added. "You are welcome to my dojo anytime! Or, until I can get back into Saffron City."

Bruno grinned. "Well, now that our mission is done, we shall alert the rest of the Elite Four. Goodbye and good luck, Summer!"

The two Fighting type users proceeded to climb down the volcano. Then, it was just me, Blaine, and the Pokémon. As Moltres preened itself, one of its tail feathers fell off. It picked it up gently with its beak and handed it to me.

Blaine translated, "Moltres wants you to have her tail feather, as a sign of respect."

I gratefully accepted and bowed. Blaze and Lightning did the same.

Moltres looked at Blaine and nodded. Blaine took out an old brown book from his pocket and looked at us seriously. "Summer...it's time for me to tell you about my past…and Samir's future. Let me tell you…about the Legend Guardians…"
