Sunday...

The next morning…

As the morning sun rose the ship became quiet and empty as if it was a zombie movie filled with broken items and raided stores. Shawn began to put on the clothes as he puts on the armor with the helmet and finally picked up the gun. The outfit consisted of Black combat gear such as boots, protective vest, and gloves, with a military olive-drab colored full body "skin" that resembles a durable wetsuit, worn under their other equipment as the first layer of protection. It also includes pauldrons and military style helmets. Finally it had a fully-covered gas mask with vision enhancing goggles with red lenses. The weapons he had with him were a Heckler & Koch MP5 machine gun with red dot sight and laser aiming module. For sidearm he carried a Heckler & Koch MK 23 pistol with a silencer and laser-aiming module. Finally he had a few tactical grenades and at least one KA-BAR 1221N2K USMC Next Generation Fighting Knife. For some reason most of the weapons were equipped with tranquilizer ammunition but had the option to switch to real rounds for emergency.

"You know Shawn. You wearing that armor is a turn on for me."

"Really. Maybe I'll get something like this and try it back home. I got to go. I'll be back, okay?"

"Okay."

"Don't worry. I'll find our friends okay and you know what to do if they find you here."

Shawn and Phoenix kissed bye for a moment as he leaves the room. Shawn patrols the ship as there were guards at every direction from left to right, top floor to bottom all over the place. Shawn plays it cool trying not to blow his cover as the guards were having a conversation.

"Hey do remember last night from that Blaziken?"

"Yeah. She was freaking hot on that bed."

"I know I should've taken that ass when I had the chance."

"Yeah till she piledrived your ass." (Chuckles)

"Shut up! I didn't see you do shit. Come on, Boss wants to address everybody in the ship personally."

As the guards leaves and Shawn was about to follow until he heard muffle noises coming from the closet as he opens it he finds them tied up together.

"Holy crap. Luke. Geena. Are you guys okay?"

He begins to untie them as he takes the tape off.

"Stay quiet. They're all over the ship. Get back to my room and try not to get caught."

"Okay."

"I'll look for Lex and Kia."

As Luke and Geena left, they had to make their way at the lobby of the ship. To their surprise, almost everybody on the ship was there gathered for some reason. Shawn was close by with some of the guards and he spotted Phoenix there amongst the crowed. Seeing her made her feel deeply nervous but he kept his cool for her and their friends Lex and Kia sake amongst in the crowd. Around that time at the main stage where performers usually played, everyone saw the Omen enter. He carefully walked up and turned on the mic to address everyone.

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen. I know some of you are scared, some of you are angry, but in all confused either way. As you all know who I am I feel it is my responsibility to explain what is going on. As you all see before you this ship and its crew and passengers are all under my control but do not take as a threat for that also means you are all under my protection. We do not take pleasure in this nor was it something we had a choice in the matter. We are all deeply sorry for having to drag all of you into this. We ask for your cooperation and patience for we hope to get through this as soon as possible. We will be sending our demands later this evening and we will report to you what your governments will do. We do hope your governments submit to our demands for we do not wish to harm any of you but we will if we need to. Which now brings to the new rules I will explain. You are all free to carry out your lives on this ship for the week. We will do our best not to interfere but we will always be close by and always keep a watch twenty four seven. And take mind that I also have hundreds of my men within crowed who will act as the eyes and ears that my men in uniforms cannot catch. We are everywhere and we are nowhere but we are many. Please for everyone's sake, don't do anything stupid. Because I won't be able to guarantee your safety if such actions are taken on us. And with this I will leave you all in peace, try to ignore us if you and we'll try not to be much of a hastle. Good day everyone and I hope you will still enjoy your visit here on this ship."

Omen took a small bow and exited off the stage away from everyone's sight. As the guards leave the main lounge Shawn tries to approach Lex and Kia hopefully not blowing his cover.

"What do you want from us? I don't have any money."

"Guy's relax. It's me."

Shawn reveals half of his face as they recognize him and puts it back on.

"Shawn, what are you doing wearing that? Are you part of this?"

"No, I'm not part of this. I'm in disguise. I'm trying to find out what's going on. Head back to my room okay."

"Alright, we'll try to get back to the room as quietly as we can. This guy has people in the crowd."

"While you're at it, please get Phoenix back, I just saw her a moment ago."

"We will."

Lex and Kia moved quietly through the crowd as everyone went back to trying to enjoy the vacation like the guards were not even there. What little help that did as everyone was nervous and scared from everything going on. As Phoenix heard the address she felt worried about Shawn and decides to go out and look for him but Geena stops her.

"Phoenix what are you doing?"

"I'm going to look for Shawn."

"But what if something happens to you out there?"

"Well I can't sit here and do nothing."

Phoenix puts on her workout gear and leaves the room to look for him. As she looks around she sees patrolling guards all over the place as she sits in a restaurant lounge as she was given hot coffee. The Albino Lucario joins her as she looked angry at him.

"Hey look we know everyone is pissed at us being. I would be pissed too. But try to enjoy your stay and pretend we're not even here."

"Yeah, I don't think I can do that with you watching me."

"Sorry, I just wanted to apologise just like the master did to let you all know we really are sorry about this but we have to do this and this all necessary. We know you are all angry and you all have the right to be angry."

"For what? What the hell do you want this us?" Phoenix asks in anger

"Not you, we need something from your government's something we really badly need but I can't say no more. Please, please try to understand."

The soldier got up and walked up to the cash register guy and ordered a bottle of water. He actually payed for it with his own money, took the water and walked off back somewhere. A soldier joins Phoenix as she still had a despised face.

"I told you to go away."

"Phoenix, it's me."

Shawn reveals himself to her and puts the mask back on.

"Shawn. Do you know what's going on?" Phoenix asks curiously

"No, I have no idea what's going on yet. Look I can't talk too long, there's no telling who could be listening in."

"Alright. I love you."

"I love you too."

Shawn leaves Phoenix again back to his patrol. He was quickly approached by Luke who whispered to him quickly.

"Keep an eye out for an albino Lucario. He's the guy who kicked me and Geena's ass and tied us up. He maybe part of the crowd because he was wearing civilian clothes I think."

"Okay, we will."

"And watch yourself, he was a very dangerous bad ass. And I mean a very, very dangerous bad ass."

"We understand."

They continue roaming through the ship as he finally sees the Albino Lucario in the workout gym practicing some form of mixed martial arts. When he finished he briefly looked towards Shawn as if he was another soldier before just sitting down on a bench to rest. Another soldier carefully walked up to the Lucario. He looked around and whispered something in his ear that made the Lucario jump to his feet and quickly walked out somewhere. From the look on his face he looked a little worried about whatever is going on as he follows him. worried from what Shawn saw. The soldier didn't know Shawn was in disguise so he just approached him like any other soldier.

"The boss wanted to see Aaron real quick. You know how he worries about him twenty four seven."

"Yeah, I can see that. Hopefully it isn't something bad."

"It's not but you know Aaron, he'll get worried even if the boss gets a small cramp."

"They must be close."

"What do you mean? You know that Aaron is the boss's Lucario, you sick or something, or did you have one too many drinks last night?"

"What? No. I mean close friends like for a long time."

"Riiight...anyrate I need to go take a piss somewhere. Can you keep an eye on this area till I get back?"

"Fine. Just don't wet yourself."

"Oh piss off I need to go take a piss. Damn I knew I shouldn't have had that extra tequila from the bar last night. I swear the bartender put something in it."

"Just go take a piss before you piss your own pants."

The soldier walked off but made sure to flip a middle finger at Shawn as he walked to the nearest bathroom. Shawn follows the Lucario as he stands by the door guarding it as he went in. Shawn tried listening in what ever conversation he maybe having with Omen but was finding it difficult to hear.

"Are you in pain sir?"

"I told you Aaron it was just a little attack nothing to concern about. I won't require my medication until next week. I need to stay focus and effective if we are to succeed."

"Pain won't make you effective sir."

"I know but that's not what I called you here for. What did you do with those two passengers from last night."

"Exactly as you ordered sir."

"I see. Well there's a thing. The men went to check on the area that you told them that they would be there and they were not there."

"Sir I…"

"I know you did what I asked but now that those two are somewhere on this ship you're covered could be blown. I want you to stay as discreet as you can, we'll try to find them as soon as possible."

"Sir let me hunt them down and I'll take care of the issue personally."

"No Aaron please do this for me this is hard on everyone and I know to you this is just another mission but to some of us this is very personal and there is allot at stake on this. And worst of all we're dragging innocence in this. I want this to be done with as little bloodshed as possible. Am I understood?"

"Yes sir."

Omen pats Aaron on the shoulder.

"Good boy. Now go somewhere to relax or something. Take it easy for me."

"What about you sir?"

"Oh I'll be fine, I maybe in my sixties but I'm still kicking. I think I'll go for a little stroll around the ship and enjoy the scenery."

"Sir that could put you in danger."

"I trust the people here not to make a decision that stupid. And you know very well I can handle myself."

"But sir..."

"Aaron…"

"Yes sir, forgive me for arguing sir."

"It's quite alright I know you worry. I worry just as much for your sake as well. Now go enjoy yourself."

Just as Aaron left the room, Omen turned towards the soldier Shawn was disguised as.

"Hey Mike."

"Uh yes sir how can I help?"

Omen walked to Shawn and handed him a couple of bucks.

"Could you do me a favor and go get some fresh coffee for me please. Sugar and cream the way I like it."

"Yes sir. I'll bring the coffee."

Shawn leaves the room to get the coffee as he finds a cafe. He walks to the cafe and orders the fresh coffee with sugar and cream on it. She hands the coffee to him as he checks the coffee to see it it's right. After receiving the coffee he pays her and brings the coffee back to the boss as he hands it to him.

"I made sure they made it right, sir."

"Thank you Mike you are a good young man. Care to walk with me around the ship and enjoy the scenery?"

"Of course, sir."

Omen got up and placed a straw in the coffee as he quietly stirred it. The two walked around the main deck. To Shawn's confusion, Omen was drinking his coffee through his gas mask with the straw.

"Nothing like very good coffee and a beautiful sight in the morning don't you think Mike?"

"Yes sir. I always love slow walks like this."

"How's your wife doing I haven't heard from her in a while. I believe you two were on this very same cruise a month ago?"

"Uh… yes sir. We thought we could go again but she wanted to go somewhere else."

"Any ideas where that could be?"

"To the… uh… Pallet Town?"

"Pallet Town. Ok."

Omen took another sip of his coffee through his straw in his gas mask.

"How are you feeling sir?"

"Well Mike. That's a very hard question. So many things are going on that even this relaxing moment can't heal. I'm more concerned for Aaron you know."

"I see you and Aaron are close."

"Well you have been with us for about two years but I understand Aaron doesn't like talking as much as I do, but you do know he's my Lucario."

"Well Lucario's don't show emotions like that."

"Very true. Aaron, gosh I don't know where to begin with him."

Omen heard a speaker go on his mic so he answered.

"Yes Hack...what is it? Seriously...you called me for that. Very well I'll send Mike to assist you."

Omen cuts off.

"Mike can you go meet Hack in the security room he apparently is having some troubles with some stuff and he needs some assistance. For what he plans on doing just bare with him he's quite the I don't know what to say type of guy."

"Yes sir. Right away."

Shawn leaves Omen as goes to the security room to see what the problem. He reaches the security room and finds Hack laying on his back under the table working through several cords.

"Come on ya son of a bocovich work with me dammit. There you go ya bloody bastardo son of gun."

"Um Hack?"

"Hey Mike come stand close and do as I say. This wonder beast is giving me hell and I'm going to make this bitch scream."

"Sure. Whatever the hell you just said."

"Hand me that flux capacitor right there?"

"Flux what now?"

"Hand me the square looking device."

"Here you go."

"Alright thinks. Alright you master whore of a computer let's start this. Oh want to play rough. Alright I'm game you ya desperado piece of shit."

(Thinking) "This guy has a weird sensation for machines."

"Quick Mike hand me my Arm Computer. It's that's fancy looking device on the desk."

Shawn picked the device and handed it to Hack.

"Ah hello beautiful ready to go to work? Hey Mike have I ever told you about the stories on Tornados?"

(Thinking) "Crap! Now he's going to tell me stories."

"You still there Mike? Me and lovely can't handle this master problem ourselves without an extra pair of hands. Whoever built this piece of shit was drunk with his or head so far up his or her's ass they could see the light of day through their mouths while dazed in lala land. Also known as having one's head up one's ass as my grandfather Arceus rest his soul would say."

Shawn looks at him with a disgusted face of how so much profanity coming out his mouth and had to go along with it.

"But back to what I was saying. They got nicknames for every F level of Tornadoes. Each for what they are capable of doing. Do you know what they say about F5's?"

"Uh… no, not really. Like powerful one's or something like that."

"F5's Mike are like the end of days. They will spin and send things in a veracity that would cause egg to smash through a brick wall. They call the F5 Humpty's Revenge."

"Why would they call it that?"

"Like I said, F5's can generate enough force to send even an egg through a brick wall I've actually seen it done myself that one time I got struck by lightning for the tenth time."

(Thinking) "I can't this anymore. I gotta get out of here."

"And done."

Hack gets up from under the desk to reveal himself as an electabuzz as he washed the dirt and dust off him with a wash cloth. He shook Shawn's hand for his help.

"Thanks for your help buddy. Now let me show you what we now got."

Hack pressed a few buttons on his wrist computer to show on all the T.V. screens in every camera in the ship.

"Now we have access to every single camera and we can now keep an even deeper eye on everybody. The way I see it. The guards patrolling, our guys in with the crowed and now the cameras on our side. We can see and hear everything."

"That's great. Best if I get back to the boss."

"Hold on a minute I haven't got to the best part."

"What best part."

"You see I already hacked into the computer last night and took control of the system. Took me five minutes."

"Then what the hell were you just doing?"

Hack smiled and pressed another button. Showing rooms that didn't have cameras.

"I had the guys install cameras in every room and place that didn't have any. This will allows us to keep an eye on everybody and everything in the whole ship. And wait there's more."

With a smirk. Hack pressed another button and the T.V. screens started showing various screens of various hot and beautiful girls either stripping in the bathroom or getting ready to go swimming. Shawn became very shocked of what he was seeing.

(Thinking) "They've been watching the entire time?"

"Free girls gone wild baby."

Hack pressed another button and started playing Marvin Gaye - "Sexual Healing".

"Sit back and enjoy the show my friend and enjoy the performance. "Hell there's this one Blaziken I have got to show you who has the most finest piece ass and boobs I have ever seen."

Hack presses another button showing Phoenix undressing to get in her bikini.

"Whooo yeah take it off baby show us what you got!"

Hack cheered as he took a sip of beer and sat back in his chair. Shawn watched in disgust and anger as he watches Hack watching them have sex and wanted to do something about it.

"You know that Blaziken's name is Phoenix, she's married to a guy named Shawn and they have two kids at Lumiose town. One Greninja and a infant kid. They're also good friends with a Lucario named Nero, his Delphox wife and they even have a half breed son named Hyro who goes to School with Zeya the Greninja who is Phoenix's daughter and has a huge crush on her."

"How do you know all this shit?"

"That's why they call me Hack it's my job to hack into stuff and find any and every worthy information in case shit ever hits the fan. I have information on everyone on board this ship and everyone they know. All saved in the master file back home with a million and more different copies at locations unknown. We now know everything and have a plan for anything and everything that could go wrong."

(Thinking) "You sick bastard!"

Shawn draws his pistol behind his head without him knowing aim at his head ready to shoot.

"But you know what. This girl is married and has a cute set of kids. The boss would have my hide if he found out I'm peeping tom on her. Man got to give that Shawn guy credit. He's got the most serious kind of balls to do what he did to save her. So out of respect for that. I guess I'll switch her off. I think she's very lucky to have a guy like him. And he's even luckier to have a girl like her, finest body in the world with the nicest personality to. You know that's true beauty right there. One that's beautiful both and out know what I mean Mike?"

Shawn thinks over what he said and puts his gun away as Hack shuts off the feed.

(Thinking) "Well at least he isn't a total asshole but I'm still gonna kill him for it."

"So Mike wanna to hear this one time I made the boss a blame thrower. I think I still have it with me, let me check."

As Hack looks for it Shawn leaves the room before he could find it. He finds it but he was nowhere to be seen.

"Guess he was needed somewhere else. Oh well time to get back to work. Sorry ladies shows over."

Hack pressed the button and went back to spying on everyone normally. Shawn continues his patrol on the ship as he still can't get over the idea of them being recorded as he feels his privacy has been violated. Now these guys have eyes and ears everywhere even at places where there are no security camera or people around. The situation couldn't get any worse. Shawn returns to the room to check on them as he knocks on the door.

"Open up. It's me."

Shawn tries to keep his name under the ropes so the ropes so Hack doesn't catch him. Luke opens the door and sees it was one of the soldiers as he was about to hit him but Geena stopped him and let him in.

"Okay guys. I've been snooping around the ship and I got terrible news."

"Oh shit, well what is it?" Luke asked as he started banging his head on the wall.

"Apparently they literally have eyes and ears all over the place watching and listening. So don't say my name or you'll blow my cover."

"So you mean…" As Phoenix asked frighteningly

"Yes, they saw us with all of us, together. When we all made love together."

Everyone looked down in shame but he has the other news along with it.

"But this Electabuzz was nice enough to delete. He's an asshole but not a total."

Everyone sighed in relief

"So what all did you find out other then them having cameras even in the bathrooms?" Geena asked.

"Nothing much. I still don't know what their planning but I will find out. That Albino Lucario may know something, I found out he's Omen's Lucario and apparently the two are very close friends."

"So that's it?" Lex asks

"I'm not sure. I'll have to look more into it. But I got other bad news. That electabuzz that works for them He can hacked into everyone on this ship's account and everyone they know's account. They know everything about all of us and everything on everyone we know. Heck they even know about Zeya and Abby and where we live. Hell they even know what I did in Kindergarten."

"What do we do, Shawn?" Phoenix asks

"I don't know anymore. They know everything about us, our family, our friends, our lives. I think it's over."

"Bullshit I refuse to let them get away with knowing about my info. You guys have any idea how to privet I kept my life until some asshole pops out of nowhere and somehow with a press of a few buttons knows more about me then I do. Like hell I'm letting that slide." Lex announced.

"Look let's not give up on this just yet and start with what we know right now. We know that Albino Lucario has to be his right hand man or something. They got eyes and ears with their soldiers, people part of the crowed, cameras, and even hidden cameras at places where there are not suppose to be cameras like bathrooms. Is there anything else." Kia responded.

"Not much, he was talking with the Lucario a little while ago but I couldn't get much out of the conversation. And this Omen guy never takes his mask off even when he drinks coffee. I saw him drink his coffee with a straw through his mask. Don't know what the hell that was about."

"We're just going to have to get more information. They've already seen me and Geena's faces and probably already know we've escaped. So that just leaves Lex, Kia, and Phoenix to move among the crowd and Shawn here to move around the soldiers. In the meantime we'll see if we can get rid of the what ever hidden cameras that Hack dude may have installed in this room."

As they looked all over the room and found a few cameras one on the T.V. stand, the shelves counter and from the Jacuzzi.

"I think that might be all the cameras."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, when I saw the video I checked from different angles. That should be all of them."

"Alright now what do we do?"

"I'm going back out to walk among the soldiers see if I learn any more info. Lex? Can you, Phoenix, and Kia try to find that Albino Lucario and try to secretly spy on him?

"We can try but from what Geena told me I got a bad feeling he's going to be one of those over cautious type of guys. It could be difficult and dangerous if he is Omen's right hand man walking among the crowd."

"Well if he's part of the crowd he can't afford to blow his cover. He'll be acting like he's just another passenger on the ship. Hating this no more than we are. Just don't spook him and try to split up at places he maybe at."

"I don't think you can spook this guy. It's more like don't piss him off. I know because the dude almost broke every rib in my body and maybe even my jaw with that kick he gave me in the face."

"Well did he break anything?"

"Well just my ribs. He punches hard as hell. But the worst part he broke was my pride. But at least he didn't destroy my pride as a man, Arceus forbid what that would've felt like."

"Well at least you're not dead. I'm going back out."

"Be careful, Shawn."

Shawn leaves the room as he goes back to his job to keep an eye on the soldiers. In the meantime, Phoenix, Lex, and Kia went back to the main lobby to see if they could find the Albino Lucario anywhere.

"Alright if I was an albino Lucario that stood out like a sore thumb and was a serious cold hearted bad ass right hand man of a terrorist group hiding among the crowed. Where would I go to blend in?"

"Lex can you keep it down there's no telling who's listening."

"How hard can it be to find this guy?"

"He's an Albino. He has to stand out."

"Hey, I think I see him over there at that bar."

The three spot the Albino Lucario sitting quietly in a bar looking out at the window at the ocean outside. Not eyeing or doing anything except sit there and look at the water and rain outside.

(whispering) "What's the plan?" Lex asked.

(whispering) "Okay, I think we should follow him back to his boss and wale on him." Lex suggested

(whispering) "That's a terrible idea, Lex."

(whispering) "Okay then. What plan do you have then?"

(whispering) "I don't know, Phoniex any ideas?"

(whispering) "Let's take a seat and go with a flow. Just keep a close eye or something I don't know but we can't just stand here and stare at him."

(whispering) "I still think I should wale on him."

(all whispering )"Of course go get your ass kicked like Luke and Geena did be our guests, and blow our cover while your at it."

(whispering) "Women, no faith in men."

Kia looked angry and punched him in the shoulder as he was in pain.

"Ow."

"It better hurt."

"Sh, look he's leaving."

"What do we do?"

"Phoenix go follow him."

"Why me?"

"Because like Shawn said we got to split up, if he sees all of us following him everywhere he will suspect something."

"Yes and with all of us getting caught they'll kill us or one of us as a warning."

"Alright. I'll follow him."

As the Albino Lucario leaves she begins to follow him. To where he was going she couldn't tell. Eventually he decided to head towards one of the same restaurant Phoenix and Shawn ate at last night. He just took a seat up on the second floor and ordered something. Phoenix did the same but not too close by. Around that time the performers started performing as usual like everything was normal. The Albino just watched the performance with a calm gesture. When they finished, one of the guest opera performers appeared on stage and started singing Ave Maria. Immediately the Albino Lucario sat up from his seat and listened closely to the song. As if it hit something in him, he had a look of deep confusion and appeared shocked. Half way through the song he started shaking and was continually rubbing his head. Finally by the end of the song just as everyone including the soldiers clapped for the performer, the Albino let out a loud shout as he fell to his knees and gripped his head in intense agony. Alerting everyone in the restaurant. Soldiers rushed over to help him but without blowing his cover. Aaron on the other hand was reacting violently as he proceeded to beat the soldiers that got close to him all while suffering from a massive headache and shaking in pain. It made Phoenix curious of what was wrong with the Albino as she thinks it over.

(Thinking) "Something tells me that there's more to this Lucario than being a killing machine. I better keep a close eye."

"What the hell is going on in here?" yelled one soldier who had a few red markings on his uniform. Maybe suggesting a higher rank.

"I don't know sir this Lucario just went crazy or something."

"The song, that face, what the fuck why the fuck is it in my fucking head?!"

"Take him to the medic room. Maybe Nurse Joy knows something."

When the soldiers tried to calmly approach Aaron shot a crimson colored Aura sphere at them. The group barely managed to move out.

"STAY THE FUCK AWAY!"

(Contacting Omen) "Sir, Aaron is losing his mind. Permission to tranquilize?"

(through mic) "What?! Permission granted but don't blow his cover."

"Yes sir."

The soldier pulls out his tranquilizer, loads it and shot it at Aaron's in the arm. Aaron let out a growl and charged at the group of soldiers.

"Oh shit!"

Aaron pile drives at the group and proceeded to violently beat them. They shot a few more tranquilizers at him which after a total of four tranquilizers finally started to take effect.

"What the fuck is going on? I don't know her but she is my head. That fucking song is in my head and I don't even fucking know it." they heard Aaron quietly moan in pain.

The soldiers were curious of what happened as it draw a crowd around him.

"What the fuck happened to him?" The ranking soldier asks.

"I don't know. Get him out of here."

"Alright move along! Nothing to see here!"

The soldiers pick up Aaron as they carried him out of the restaurant as the crowd disbands and Phoenix even more curious.

(Thinking) "Well now I'm really interested of what's going on."

Phoenix started to quietly follow them to the medic bay. While she did so she decided to give Nero a call.

(through phone) "Hello?"

"Hey Nero it's me Phoenix."

(through phone) "Phoenix, are you okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine. I have a few questions for you."

(through phone) "Sure. Ask away."

"This Albino Lucario who works with Legion just went on rampage with Aura Spheres but it wasn't for self defense. He absolutely lost his mind. Also the color of his aura and aura spheres are a crimson red. I've never seen that before. Can you tell me about that?"

(through phone) "Well this Albino Lucario you speak of is a rare Lucario. You don't see my kind too often and he's one of them. Many Lucario's will come in different colors such as dyed white."

"Okay but what about his reaction and the red aura color? His Aura spheres seemed more powerful and destructive than a regular aura sphere or at least the ones you and Hyro do." Phoenix asks

(trough phone) "Well he's different from me that's one thing. He must have had intense training to develop that kind of power and his violent reactions could be caused from from certain actions taken place or he's having problems controlling his powers. Just like when I couldn't control myself when I was with Shawn before."

"What kind of actions?" Phoenix asks

(through phone) "It could be memories or flashbacks that's causing the trigger to make him act like this."

"Okay but why is his Aura red?"

(through phone) "Like I said. Lucario's can come in different ways so they can have different reactions, training and what not."

"Okay, I think I understand. Thank you, Nero."

(through phone) "Your welcome and be careful, okay?"

"I will."

Phoenix hangs up as she continues to watch the Albino Lucario as he lays in bed taking medicine. The high ranking soldier from earlier was still there with him as Nurse Joy was inspecting him.

"You think you can tell me what happen to him nurse?"

"Well with his violent actions lately he seems to be having some kind of disorder that is created in his mind. Basically a psychological problem."

"So he's crazy?"

"No, he is not crazy."

"Do you know what could've made this happen?"

"Well something may have triggered it that made react like this. Maybe something that was played made him remind him of someone or thing. That's my only logic reason."

"Is there anything you can do?"

"The only thing he can do is either go to therapy to deal with this or it's alysum for him. Better yet I'll give him these prescribed pills for to him to take. It should be to calm him down."

She hands him the pills as he acknowledges it.

"I'll let the boss know about this."

"See that you do."

He leaves the nursery to go give news to their boss as she stood still as he walks through the door and leaves. Phoenix in the meantime stayed close by and tried her hardest to listen in to the possible conversation or keep an eye on the Lucario.

"When can I leave nurse?"

"You'll leave until you're well again."

"Can I at least head back to my room?"

"Yes but with an escort and you'll need it too."

"That won't be necessary I don't need an escort to my room. It's already bad enough with these guys running around calling the shots."

"You'll need it because if it happens again. You're coming back here. Let me see if I can find someone real quick."

Joy got up and saw Phoenix in the room sitting as if she was a patient waiting to be addressed.

"Excuse me ma'am can you do me a favor before I have you check up?"

"Of course, nurse. What is it?"

"Can you escort my patient to his room please?"

"Of course, nurse. Come on."

Phoenix helps the Albino Lucario up out of bed and helps him walk out the door. The Albino Lucario kept his hood over his head to try and hide his face. As if he looked embarrassed or something.

"What's the matter?" Phoenix asks curiously

"Truth be told I rather not talk about it ma'am."

"Why not? If you have a secret I promise not to tell. I swear to Arceus."

"Sorry ma'am I don't know you well enough for that and I never tell anything to anyone even to what close friends I have. I wouldn't even tell Arceus if he didn't know already. I like to keep all things to myself."

"Do you even have friends with you?"

"Not on this cruise. I got a few friends. It's just me One of them suggested to take this cruise and the only reason why I'm on is because I lost a poker game against him."

"Against who?"

"One of my friends. We were playing poker and if he won I was to go on this cruise. And well here I am."

"That doesn't seem too bad."

The Lucario didn't respond. He just kept quiet.

"I'm sorry if I got too personal."

"Its okay I guess, I stick out like a sore thumb allot. It's no surprise that people want to know some stuff about me."

"Well...uh have you ever tried, you know, making new friends, socialize or relax. You seem really tense allot."

"No, and honestly I prefer to keep to myself. That way no one would have a reason to irritate me or worst, attack me."

"I understand. Is this your room?"

"Yes ma'am. Thanks for the escort, I apologize for the inconvenience."

"Your welcome. I'll leave you now but can I at least have your name."

"I'm sorry ma'am. I can't."

"It's okay."

The Albino Lucario opened his door slightly and entered and closed it. Making sure to politely not show Phoniex the inside of his room. Without knowing Shawn was tailing secretly the entire time as he approached her.

"I see you've walked with that Albino Lucario. So what did you find out?"

"Nothing really. He hasn't revealed a signal thing. What about you?"

"I'm about to heading over to the captain's deck, their boss could be there or not. Maybe get some more information or something. In the meantime go check on Kia and Lex."

"Okay I'll see you later."

Shawn headed his way to the captain's deck on the top section of the ship. To his surprise he saw Omen there sitting on a chair with the President on the T.V. speaking with him.

"Spare me the details Omen. Exactly what is it that you want?" the president asked Omen through the T.V."

"I won't bore you with the details because I know you are a very busy man. You and all the rest of the world leaders. However my demands are simple but I will not speak them over this conversation but send them to you through email. Hack."

The president suddenly got the message on his iPhone.

"How the...?"

"That's my personal information Mr. President but read the demands but do not say them out loud."

The president as well as his staff began reading the demands on the phone. He looked up in shock as well as the other.

"Your joking right? Your shitting us right?"

"Mr. President with all due respect do I look like a man who shits people? Why the hell do you think I took this ship hostage? My demands are simple and that list is all I want from this."

"You're a madman!" The secretary of defense yelled. "Do you have any idea what you're asking us?"

"Don't tell me do I have any idea what I am asking for? I don't care how you get your hands on it or how the hell you find it but I want what's on that list within one week. Otherwise."

"Otherwise?" The vice president asked.

"Otherwise the people on this ship will perish and their blood will be on your hands as well as the other world leaders they are forced to kiss up to. And when the public knows that their world leaders stood and watched while their loved ones suffer, how long do you think it will take before Anarchy begins and you find yourselves against all the people you rule over. You will find yourself in a no win situation. All of you."

"We don't negotiate with terrorists!"

"Well my dear politicians I can assure you that will negotiate with this one. I will give you twenty four hours for your answer a week before my patience run out. I expect that you meet and send that list to the other world leaders because none of you have any idea how desperate I want that. And there's an old saying, never question a man willing to sacrifice everything to achieve his goal. Good day ladies and gentlemen."

With that said the T.V. shuts off and Shawn thinks in shock about the time they have left.

(Thinking) "Twenty four hours?"

"Why am I not surprised from the results of that meeting? Shade, what do you think of this?"

Suddenly out of the darkness of the room. A Darkrai wearing a tattered grey cloak appeared and walked up to The Next day side. His appearance was intimidating and dark that made even Shawn feel nervous.

"I am not sure master but we both knew they weren't going to give in that easily. I'm not sure if they'll actually give us what we want. You heard the secretary of defense call you mad."

"Shade I'm out of options here. If it easy then we wouldn't be on this ship holding its passengers hostage. And we don't have the manpower, resources, or technology to find it either."

"I understand my master but we are putting everyone who signed up for this mission at risk."

"I know… hell even Aaron's life is at risk and I begged him not to come along with me."

"Aaron is just trying to help you because he knows even though what we seek is not important to him, it is important to you and that's why he chose to come."

"True."

Around that time, the high ranking soldier from earlier enters.

"What's Aaron's status Thomas?"

"He's back in his room laying down. He should be fine in a hour or two."

"Good. Thomas I want you to keep a close eye on him and make sure his cover isn't blown and to help prevent another accident like that from happening."

Suddenly Omen's phone rings. He answers.

"Yes… how bad...I see...I'll be there as quick as I can."

Omen hangs up.

"Gentlemen I need to leave the ship and take care of some issues at the base. Shade you are in charge until I get back. Follow with the plan and all possible alternative plans. Thomas take care of Aaron while I'm gone."

"As you wish my master." Shade bowed his head to Omen.

"Yes sir."

Omen exited the captain's deck to go where ever he needed to go.

"Alright, everyone head back to your stations. I'm going to get a little overview of the ship." Shade started.

As the soldiers left, Shad eyes Shawn.

"You, Mike, come here."

"Yes, Shade sir?"

Shade walks up to Shawn and inspects him.

"Have you gained some more muscle recently?"

"Well I've been working out before I came to the ship. Thanks for noticing." (Nervously chuckles)

"Your welcome but I'm confused. I spoke with you yesterday morning before we attacked the ship and you didn't have the amount of muscles you currently have. Tell me how did you gain that much in twenty four hours?"

"Uh… time flies by?"

"You seem nervous."

Shawn tries to keep his cool but with the questions piling on it continues to make him nervous.

"In my thousands of years of existence it has come to my experience that those who are nervous are either cowards or have something to hide or not just telling the whole truth. Now we've known each other for sometime so I know you are no coward. So do you have something to tell me Mike?"

"I… uh… what would you like to know?"

Shawn tries to throw him off with another question but Shade was no fool.

"Do you remember what we talked about yesterday morning?"

"You mean yesterday morning or the other day?"

Shade scans Shawn closely. Before he could continue he heard a call.

"Yes...I see...I'll send Mike down there."

Shade hangs up.

"Mike I need you to head to meet hack at the security room he has an objective for you."

"Yes sir."

Shawn leaves the room as sighs in relief.

"That was close. I hope he didn't find out."

Shawn headed towards the security room where he saw Hack laying back in his seat while observing most of the areas of the ship.

"Hey Mike got a minute?"

"Sure. What is it?"

"Remember that Blaziken girl, Phoenix. Married to that guy Shawn?"

"Yeah, what about them?"

"I haven't seen Shawn at all this morning. Not even with his wife. Come to think of it, I haven't seen him at all anywhere at the ship."

"Maybe they wanted their private time?"

"Yeah but that's the thing I haven't seen him anywhere not even in his room. And yet I've been seeing Phoenix by herself as well. And if I know Shawn from the information that I've dug up on him he's not the type of guy to ever do that. I got suspicions that he maybe up to something because he used to be an undercover cop now a professional speed artist. Guy like that with the type of steel balls he has could be trouble and that's the real reason why I put the most cameras in his room. Which while I'm on the subject the cameras went dead this morning. And those are special cameras I made and they don't go bad unless someone messes with them."

"I don't know what's going but I guess the batteries are dead."

"I personally charged those batteries myself and they're good for two months. Those batteries are not dead. But let me get to the point. I sent Alpha team to his room to see if he's there. I want you to assist them ok."

"Um, okay."

Shawn leaves the room as he ran back to his room before the team arrives. He rushes through the crowd pushing them out of the way to get to his room. As he was close to the room he checked the corners as he reached the door.

"Open up, it's me."

Luke opens the door as Shawn pushed him in quickly and checked the hallway before closing it behind him. Luke, Geena and Phoenix were very worried of what's going on and Lex and Kia were confused about it.

"Guy's we don't have a lot of time."

"Why? What's going on, Shawn?" Phoenix asks

"They've sent a team down to this room to check on things. Let's fix the room before they get here."

Everybody began cleaning and fixing the room. Phoenix fixes the furniture while Shawn places back the items as Lex and Kia clean the carpet and Luke and Geena help out.

"Put the cameras back where you found them."

"Why?" Lex asks

"Because they're going to check every part of the room. Put them back but don't plug them in."

Everybody picked up each camera as they placed them back at all the spots they've found. Shawn checks the hallway as he sees them coming down in a far distance.

"They're coming. Luke. Geena. You two have to hide quickly."

"But where?"

Shawn looks around and finds an air vent and opens it.

"Here hide in there."

"I don't know if I can fit in there." As Luke was worried about getting stuck but Geena pushes him in.

"Come on, honey. Where's your sense of adventure?"

Geena pushes him in as they both fitted in and Shawn closes it behind them.

"We have to make it look casual. Everybody take off your clothes. We have to make it look good."

"What about Lex and Kia?"

"They'll join in. Everybody get under the bed sheet."

As everybody take off their clothes and Shawn throws the uniform in the drawer and the helmet behind the drawer. They get into sexual positions as the soldiers arrive to the door.

"Let us in."

They opened the door and find Shawn, Phoenix, Lex and Kia under the bed sheet as they were wondering where Mike was.

"Where's Mike? He's supposed to be here."

"He said that he checked in here and left before you guys got here."

"We'll be the judge of that. Search the room."

The soldiers began searching the room as they checked every angle where the cameras were as they see them in place. They finish checking the cameras as they were in place.

"Seems everything is in place."

"Yeah, sorry about intruding like this. Please enjoy yourselves."

They leave the room politely as they close the door behind them and everyone relaxed but found themselves awkward.

"Uh… should we finish up, Shawn?" Lex asks

"I don't know, Phoenix?"

"Well I mean you're already in there. Now why don't you put on that mask and show me what you got."

"Okay then and besides I'm tired of being apart from you."

"Me too."

Shawn pick ups the mask and begins to thrust into her as Lex and Kia did the same. While Shawn, Phoenix, Lex and Kia were having their sexual intercourse as Luke and Geena were still waiting in the air vent.

"Guys? Is it safe to come out yet? Guys?" Luke asks

"You know Luke. It's been awhile since we've been this close."

"Yeah and I'm good a feeling about this."

"Me too."

Geena crawls on top of Luke as her breasts lay against his chest as her hands digs into his pants pulling his clutch out. She jerks it a bit it was it hard enough while she was rubbing herself as between her legs were getting wet. As she wets it for her lover she grinds against his clutch until slipped in into glory hole and begins thrusting into her upwards. Shawn can hear them moaning and banging in the air vent as Shawn was impressed by his thrill of adventure. Shawn holds both of her arms as he thrusts hard into her until they all changed positions. Phoenix and Kia laid on each others bodies but in different directions as Kia's face was in Phoenixes glory hole and the same for Kia. Phoenix was on top and Kia was on the bottom as they licked each others clitoris as Shawn and Lex continued thrusting into them with their clutches in them. Luke continues to thrust into her upwards as he was on the edge of climaxing.

(Moaning) "That feels nice, Luke. Cum inside me."

Luke thrusts faster until he finally climaxed into with a strain on his face and sighs as he releases his seed into her. Shawn and Lex continues thrusting into their woman as they were also on edge of climaxing.

(Moaning) "Come on, soldier. Pull the trigger!" Said Phoenix with passion but rough

"Yeah you too, Lex." Said also Kia with passion

As Shawn and Lex continue thrusting harder into their woman and finally pulled their triggers releasing their bullets into their wombs as they felt shivers up their spines. They pull their guns out of their woman as Shawn and Lex watch their ladies lick each others mess.

"That was nice, Shawn. I've never been more turned on since you've put that mask on."

"Well enjoy it while it last. Luke's gonna have to take my place for the rest of the day."

"Wait what?"

Luke and Geena came crashing out of the vent. Shawn took the mask and helmet off.

"Guys I think they're onto me. Like they came into the room just to try and find me because they haven't seen me all morning until now. Since they're looking for Luke and Geena here, maybe we should switch places every now and then."

"Do you know at least what they're up to?" Kia asks.

"They were trying to make some kind of demands with the world's leaders but I'm not sure what it was. They didn't read it out loud. I'm going to find out what it is tonight when me and Luke switch places again."

"Okay and be careful Shawn."

"Don't I always. In the meantime I need to blend in with the crowd so Phoenix, you and I are going to go somewhere to talk a little about what we learned. Lex, you and Kia see if you can do any more spying on that Albino Lucario guy. Luke, well, try to blend in with the soldiers like I did, you'll be a guy named Mike. Geena, see what you can do about the hidden cameras in the room again."

Shawn takes off the uniform and gives it to Luke as he puts the uniform on with the gear and weapons and Shawn puts his ordinary clothes on. Luke leaves to continue Shawn's job as Shawn and Phoenix leave to the ships main lounge while Geena stayed put with the cameras as Lex and Kia leave to continue spying on the Albino Lucario. Shawn and Phoenix arrive to the main lounge as they take a seat and just ordered coffee.

"Well Shawn. What do you know so far?"

"Like I said I don't know much. All I know is that the boss or their "Master" is what they call him made some kind of high demand to the world leaders. But I did get that Albino Lucario's name."

"You did? What's his name?"

"His name is Aaron."

"Aaron. Well at least we have a name. What else did you find?"

"Well I found out that Aaron isn't Omen's right hand man. It's a thousand year old Darkrai named Shade who wears a cloak and is a scary mother fucker and I mean I almost pissed my pants scary mother fucker."

"Wow, I do not want to stare him."

"It's like I was staring at death. And he's smart too. I think he figured me out just by looking at me."

"Well we'll have to be more careful next time and watch our backs too."

"Yeah, I know." Shawn agreeing

As Shawn and Phoenix plan their next move a Zoroark overheard their conversation and approaches them cautiously. She wore a Grey, black and white plaid shirt with a white tank top underneath, black necklaces, white bands wrapped around the hands and wrists, and blue jeans. Shawn and Phoenix noticed her sleek, wide hip body with big breasts coming towards them. She also had a noticeable amount of muscles similar to Phoenix whenever she entered a fight mode. Despite this, Shawn almost felt his jaw drop from her sexiness, especially her mint green eyes and Phoenix was feeling a little bit jealous.

"Pardon me but correct me if I'm wrong, do you two have an idea what's going on?"

"No, we still have no idea what's going on."

"Crap, I'm sorry I just don't like being in this situations and not knowing what the hell is going on. I'm Blair by the way and sorry about eavesdropping."

"It's okay."

(Whispering) "Shawn, remember I said we need to be careful. She could be one of them."

(Whispering) "Your right. Let's keep an eye on her."

"So what brought you two here before the shit hit the fan?"

"We were on our first honeymoon. Away from the kids for a bit for a time to ourselves."

"Oh how lovely."

"Me and my wife were having a good time and making new friends along the way at least till this happen. What about you?"

"Me, oh I'm just taking my vacation. You see I work as both the manager and bouncer for a night club. I haven't been on vacation for a year so I figured I should take one. I chose the cruise and here we are."

(Whispering) "You think she's lying?"

(Whispering) "I'm not sure. Watch out for anything."

"Is it true that they're going to sink the ship by the end of the week if they don't get what they want? Just what exactly do they want?"

Shawn and Phoenix were shocked of how she knew about the situation.

"You knew?" Shawn asks confusingly

"It's what that Omen guy said in his broadcast last night remember?"

"Well yeah. All he said was that to enjoy ourselves while they occupy the ship and try not to be hero but that's the only half of it."

"Oh shit…"

"Yeah but let me ask you this. Have you've been talking to any of the soldiers while you were here?"

"Ah a few, most of them just wanted my number or something. I had to politely brush them off. Other than the flirts, no I haven't talked to anyone because I don't know who to trust I mean that guy said he's got people everywhere. Even part of the cruise ship."

Shawn and Phoenix some how still find it hard to believe her so they had to think of something.

"Can you come with us, please?" Phoenix asks politely.

Blair looked at them slightly suspiciously. Never the less, she looked around and whispered.

(whispering) "Alright but if you two pull something and you two are part of them, just know I can kick ass and takes names very hard. I even have the list of names whose asses I've kicked with me. But sure lead the way."

As they all walked together to the workout gym as Shawn and Phoenix nodded at each other and threw her to the wall as Shawn pins her as nobody was around.

"Check for wires!"

Blair uppercuts Shawn in the stomach and throws him off of her. She then scissor kicks Shawn to the ground and sets up an arm bar to hold Shawn in a painful arm lock.

"What the hell is this?!"

"Don't play dumb with me. I know you're one of them!"

"Bullshit how do I know you're not one of them. You attacked me all because I asked what could be going on!"

"Maybe the eavesdropping was too obvious."

Shawn back elbows her in the head and activates her mega evolve as Phoenix grabs hold of Blair as she drops her to the ground and begins beating her down.

"Ladies please."

Blair headbutts Phoenix to knock her off of her. Blair then pins Phoenix on the ground in both a leglock and choke hold.

"I'm a five time defending mix martial arts lightweight champion. I fight mega evolution's like you for practice."

"Come on bitch! I can take you."

"Who are you calling bitch slut?"

Blair tightens her leglock and choke holding on Phoenix even more. Until Phoenix manage to break her leglock by punching her knee. Blair cringed but still kept her leglock and choke hold on Phoenix as hard as she could while increasing more force into it. She continued the assault by elbowing Phoenix in the back of the head with her other free arm to try and knock Phoenix out as fast as possible. Shawn couldn't bare to sit around anymore as he manage to grab Blair's arms knotting it as she struggles a bit. Blair on the other hand suddenly smirked and using her strength, threw Shawn over her and right on Phoenix. Before the two had a chance to recover. Blair leaps in the air and does a falling ax kick on the two. Finally she set up an ankle lock on Shawn and another chokehold on Phoenix. Pinning both of them down to the ground hard to where they couldn't move.

"What the hell do you two want, are you with them? Answer me or I'll break something from you two and you will be hurting for a good while. Trust me I can and I will."

(Shawn struggling) "Alright, damn it! You win!"

"And you?"

"For husbands sake, you win. Bitch."

"That's what I want to hear, slut."

Blair let's them go and gets off of them. Phoenix returns back to her normal Blaziken form.

"Now can I get your names please. You two are now the newest members of my whose asses I've kicked list."

Blair pulled out a notepad titled "Asses Kicked," and a cute little pink pin.

"I don't believe it. She actually has one? I thought she made that up."

"Handsome I don't make shit up I prove shit right half of the time. You should see what my daily job is like at that bar. Allot perverts get way too drunk and I have to kick their asses and write their names down to make sure they don't show their faces there again. Also I like to remember the names of the people I beat up. Hobby really."

"A weird hobby if you ask me." Said Phoenix mumbling under her breath

"But I'm surprised you two didn't even know who I was. I'm a celebrity truth be told and most people want my autograph like those soldiers did earlier."

"Well since you insist on our names . I'm Shawn."

"I'm Phoenix."

"Shawn and Phoenix, yep got your names on the list right now."

Blair wrote down their names and puts the notepad back up with the pink pin.

"I'll admit that was some good chokeholds you had. Gotta show me and Phoenix that force power."

"Fifty dollars for private lessons. I'm retired from mixed martial arts and now I'm a bouncer and nightclub manager."

"Look were sorry about jumping you. We can't trust anyone because some are undercover as civilians. We didn't know who to trust."

"How do you think I feel? I can't even go to the ladies room without the fear of someone maybe listening in on me."

"Well at least were on the same page. So no hard feelings?"

"Help me get out of this situation and I'll give you a lifetime free pass to the club I own, where you can have as many drinks as you can stomach as long as you keep your hands to yourself."

"I'll take that as a yes."

Blair shakes hands with Shawn and Phoenix as they forgave each other.

"I still want a rematch, you bitch."

"Slut, you're not going to be able to beat me even if you pumped yourself with mega stone steroids. I've got more wins and titles under my belt then you got feathers on your body. But if you want I can give you private lessons for free if you help me out of this, and maybe just maybe I'll get you good enough for you to kick my ass if you can."

(Scoffs) "Whatever."

"Okay, I think we'll save that tension when we fight these Legion guy's. Not each other. (whispers to Phoenix) At least until we can kick her ass."

"I heard that."

"Shit…"

"Damn right shit…"

"Okay enough insulting each other. We need to work together to at least save the ship. Agree?"

"Agree, now from what I can tell these men are highly trained and they have access to both military equipment and tactics. And I mean the special forces kind of deal."

"What do you mean?"

"I've seen it before. It's the kind of training and skills only the elite of the elite of badasses were taught. I never got to that level so I was never trained as well as they were. But I have seen and witnessed this stuff in the past. And needless to say, we're in really, really serious deep shit."

"You were in the military or something?"

"Former marine captain, served for ten years in combat before honorably discharged for an injury which I rather not talk about."

"Alright then. Do you know anything about these guys that we don't know?"

"Well, obviously they have military grade equipment. So that means they've either stole it or someone is supplying it to them. If they are being supplied then that could mean these guys have access to some serious cash or have some very deep connections with some very, very powerful people."

"I see. Well I was undercover as a soldier amongst them finding out what they really want."

"What do they really want. What did you learn?"

"Their leader was making some demands with the world leaders but they didn't read out loud so I don't know what it is. We have twenty four hours before they get an answer from the politicians."

"I see, what was the reaction when they got the demands?"

"They did not like it. They even called him a madman."

"Well, we're screwed. Because that's an obvious sign that we're on our own as usual with the government coming to help. Because they would rather let their citizens die then negotiate with terrorist that could possibly endanger other citizens. Either that or they're just trying to protect their own damn reputations."

"I wouldn't blame them. Sometimes sacrifices are made to protect others even if it means losing a few others."

"True but I have no intentions of dying anytime soon because there has to be a way out of this mess. What else is going on?"

"My friend Luke has taken my place undercovering as Mike. If you see his name that's Luke."

"Does this Omen have any lieutenants or higher ups in his command with him on this ship. Any important guys?"

"He does. He has Aaron; that Albino Lucario, and his right hand man Shade, a thousand year old Darkrai who is scary as hell."

"A thousand year old Darkrai and an albino Lucario. Shouldn't be too hard to find them."

"He'll stand out but Shade hangs in the shadows. I recommend staying away from shadows."

Blair sighs and rubs her head.

"Great, now I won't be able to sleep at night."

"Yeah, so what's the plan now?" Phoenix asks

"Ok listen I need to think this through. Meet me here tomorrow. We'll pretend I'm giving you two private lessons for MMA. We'll take that opportunity to share whatever new information we learn from today and come up with a plan from there. And bring your friends too."

"I will. They'll be wanting to hear this."

"We should disappear from here before they get too nosey on what we're talking about."

The three notice a few soldiers patrolling close by. Blair cleared her throat.

"Yeah private lessons begin at 8:00 in the morning, be sure to bring your workout equipment and allot of medical stuff. My training is rough, hard core, and guranteed to make you a better badass or your money back."

"Do we get a discount?" Phoenix asks

"Well since we are on vacation and this will be my first private lesson in like a year, yeah, discount."

"Okay then. Tomorrow at eight. We'll see you there."

Shawn and Phoenix leave the gym as they parted ways for now until tomorrow. Meanwhile back with Nero and the family as they sit and worry about Shawn and Phoenix. Tera was rocking a sleepy Abby in her arms, finally got her to calm down after such a rough night. Tera looked very tired and looked like she was about to drop any minute.

"Mom, are you okay?"

"I'm fine just...tired and worried…"

"Do you want me to take her Tera?"

"You think you can handle her Nero?"

"I think."

"Okay. Try not to drop her."

"Don't worry honey I won't."

Tera hands Nero Abby gently and tried to walk to the bedroom but almost collapsed half way there. Hyro quickly rushed to his mother and helped her to her bedroom. They've reached the bedroom as Hyro helps her into bed and cover her under the bed sheet as she fell asleep and left the bedroom quietly.

"And you guys made it look so easy."

"I don't know how my mom and dad do it."

"Well we had some practice with Hyro so we're used to it I guess. However that's the first time I've ever seen mom that worn out. She never got that worn out even with you when you were this age."

"Didn't you say mom called earlier?"

"Yes she called earlier wanting to know a little more about Lucario's."

"Why didn't you tell me? Are they okay?"

"Yes, they're fine."

Zeya sighed in relief and just rubbed her face. Nero looked at the two.

"Maybe you two should get some sleep, your were up all night."

"Ok…"

Hyro helped Zeya up and walked with her to their respective rooms. Before they enter into different rooms they looked back at each other as they waved each other goodnight.

"Uh… goodnight Zeya."

"Good night to you too, Hyro."

Back with Nero, he rocked Abby gently a little before getting up and walking her to her bed to gently lay her down asleep. When he sees Abby's face it reminded him about Hyro when he was born as he begins to have a few flashbacks with Hyro as a baby playing with him along with Tera. Around that time he got a cell phone silently buzz and he answers while leaving the room.

"Hello?"

(from phone) "Nero this Glukhov we need to talk."

"Yeah, what is it?"

(from phone) "Where are you at?"

"In my house, I just tuck Shawn's daughter Abby in for the night."

(from phone) "Get somewhere private in your house and make sure no one is listening."

"Okay."

Nero leaves the living room and goes into the garage and shuts the door behind him and locked it.

"Okay, I'm listening."

(from phone) "Alright, listen. After much thought, I've decided I'm going to see what I can do about this situation but..."

"But what?" Nero asks.

(from phone) "It's going to take me an entire week to get prepared and get over there. And even then I can't guarantee that I'll be able to succeed on this mission or let alone bring anyone back alive or myself for that matter. "I've dealt with these guys three times and each time I almost lost my life in the process. What I'm telling you is I'm not the best option for this and I won't be able to guarantee anything. Understand?"

"Don't you dare say that! That's your family on that ship and that's all you have to say about it?"

(from phone) "Nero, you don't understand. I am very, very well aware of the situation. However we have to be realistic about this. I can do what I can but I just can't guarantee anything."

"No, shut up! I can't believe the words I'm hearing from you. Do you even hear yourself?"

(from phone) "I know these words are hard to hear but Nero you don't know these people. There is a reason why they call themselves Legion. They are everywhere and they are no where. They can get information on anyone even you and you wouldn't even know it. Why do you think I always keep myself hidden all the time. I also recommend you limit the amount of times you and your family and Shawn's family talk with Shawn because they could be listening in and they'll get information on all of you even Abby if they wanted. The reason why I wanted you to go somewhere private is because you never know if they could be listening in even as we speak. You need to be careful and watch yourself from here on out because if they know your connection they can and they will come after you."

"I don't want to hear your bullcrap!"

(from phone) "I am not bullcrapping you now do as I say for Arceus sake and watch your's and your family's back. I will do what I can on my end and that's all I can say. Now I have to go we got thirty seconds before this line could be compromised."

"If you're planning to save them. I'm going with you and don't deny it either."

Glukhov was already hung up before Nero's last message could be heard.

"I don't care what he says. I'm going whether he likes it or not."

Nero returns inside the house as he turns off the T.V. and goes up to their bedroom as he lays down with Tera next to him frustrated. Tera wakes up and notices him mad and wonders what's wrong.

"Nero, what's wrong?"

"It's Glukhov. He really pissed me off tonight."

"What's got you pissed off?"

"He said he was going to help them but he said he can't guarantee on them returning alive. That's what pissed me off. He doesn't see that his family is on that ship and won't let me go along."

"Honey, he's trying his best."

"Trying? He said he can't guarantee on them surviving and won't let me go."

"But if you leave and don't come back who will watch over Shawn's kids along with our's?"

She holds his hand tightly as he begins to tear up worrying about Shawn and Phoenix.

"I've been his friend for so long I can't bare to think to what could happen to him and Phoenix."

"I know. All we can do is pray to Arceus for now and be strong for them."

Nero fell silent, he gave Tera's hand a gentle squeeze. Nero wipes his eyes and goes under the sheet with her.

"Glukhov also warned me more about these guys. He told me that he's encountered them three times in his life and in each time he almost lost his life in the process. He said that they are everywhere and that they are nowhere and that if they want they can find out anything they want on anyone they wanted. Even on the kids."

"That's terrible. What do they want?"

"Not sure."

"We'll sleep on this okay. We'll try something tomorrow, okay?"

(Sighs) "Okay."

Nero and Tera go under the sheet as they both fell asleep. While in the next room Zeya was listening to them behind the wall as she felt terrified and couldn't sleep alone. She decides to go into Hyro's room as she felt alone.

"Zeya?"

"Hyro, is it okay if I sleep in your bed tonight?"

"Sure. Come on."

Zeya crawls into bed with him under the sheet next to him. She begins to cry under the sheet

"I know I heard too."

(Crying softly) "What can they do? What can we do?"

"Like my mom said. We pray to Arceus and hope for the best."

"Okay."

She snuggles under his chest as she came closer to him holding tightly. Hyro blushes but became comfortable afterwards and slept the night away.

Meanwhile later that night back at the ship. Shawn had already switched back places with Luke and was back dressed in the soldier uniform again. In the meantime he was standing guard in the captain's deck along with the others there. He could not shake the feeling that Shade was staring at him with that cold death glare of his the entire time. However whenever he looked towards Shade, he saw him just sitting in the captain's chair staring at the distance. Around that time, Omen finally returned and entered the room. Everyone saluted him as he entered. Shade got up and bowed his head.

"Welcome back Master. How did it go?"

"I was able to get it cleared up We should be still safe for another few years."

"Sir you've got a message." Thomas alerted Omen.

"Patch it through the T.V."

Omen took a seat at the captain's chair as the T.V. screen came on. It was all the world leaders now all gathered.

"I take you've thought it through and have an answer for me now?"

(through T.V.) "That we do Omen. And our answer is still the same. We will not negotiate with Terrorists and the demands you have asked for far surpass any of what our resources can get you. What you ask for is impossible and we will not jeopardize our nation's' money, health and power for your selfish demands.

Omen sighs quietly.

"Is that your final word?"

(through T.V.) "It is."

"I see...however I am a patient man and a man of my word. So I will give you all the rest of this week to change your minds and think very hard on the consequences of what your current decision will lead you. Good day gentlemen."

The T.V. cuts off. Omen grips a fist in anger as the lens of his gas mask goggles glow bright red.

"Self centered political pricks. Nothing is impossible, what I ask for is simply extremely difficult but not impossible."

"You would think them with all the world's power in their hands they would be able to find it for us. I guess to them it's not worth the lives of the people of this ship." Thomas answered.

(Thinking) "I knew they still wouldn't give in. Not even for a ship of hostages."

Shade herd his cell phone call and he answers. He looks at Omen.

"Sir, its Ace."

"Ace? Patch him through."

The T.V. screens comes on to show an older yet rough looking Lucario nicely dressed appear. However he appeared very tired and looks as if he hasn't had much sleep at all.

(Thinking) "Ace? I remember him. Me and Nero did a drug bust on his cartel once. We captured his crew but not him. So that's how this Omen guy get's all the weapons and support."

(through T.V.) "Omen."

"Ace. You look terrible."

(Through T.V.) "Nevermind about me. What did they say?"

"Ace you may not..."

(Through T.V.) "For Arceus' sake tell me!"

Omen sighs.

"What do you think. Their answer is the same answer they tell anyone who make threats and demands."

Ace chuckled sarcastically and had large tears forming in his eyes. He struggled to try and hold them back.

(Through T.V.) "What a bunch of fucking bullshit. Fuck them fuck them all!"

"Ace calm down."

(Through T.V.) "I've done some bad stuff. I've done really bad stuff. But dammit…just dammit"

(Thinking) "What's going on here?"

"Ace, take a deep breath for me please."

Ace did as he was told.

"Now look at me."

Ace wiped his face and looked back at Omen.

"We'll get the supplies we need and we'll find it. I know you're upset and you have every right to be upset. Know I am just scared and torn up from all of this just as you are. But we have to not let it destroy us. Otherwise we'll lose everything. Now please go get some rest and try to not think about all of it."

(Through T.V.) "Omen...I don't think I can stand another week of this."

"We've survived two weeks from it we can endure at least another week of it. Please Ace get some rest and try to not let it get to you."

(Through T.V.) "Ok, I'll try. I'm sorry I just."

"You have nothing to be sorry about. Please, take it easy my old friend."

(Through T.V.) "You as well, and be careful. And please make sure that Aaron doesn't attempt anymore suicide shit."

"I got him under my ever close watchful eye. Take care Ace."

(through T.V.) "You as well Omen."

The T.V. cuts off. Omen sighs again and lays back in his seat.

"Sir, are you going to be ok?" Thomas asked.

"I don't know Thomas. I'm going to turn in for the night. Tell the night shift it's their time to take patrol. Day shift your done for the night. Shade take over for me until morning."

"As you wish master."

Omen gets up from his seat and walks off somewhere.

"Would you like me to help you, sir?"

"I'll be fine, I just need some rest it's been one long day and only the first day of the week. We've got six more days of this to go."

"Yes sir. I can tell it's very stressful."

As Omen opens the Captain's room secretly without Shawn seeing the inside and closes it behind him. Shawn also leaves and heads back to the room as Phoenix opens the door and lets him in. Shawn took the soldier uniform off and switched into night wear and took a deep breath on how tired he was was all he had to do today disguised as the soldier.

"What do you know so far, Shawn?"

"Well he talked to this Mafia don called Ace. I think he's the reason of getting those weapons and support all this time. I actually know him a little, me and Nero did a bust on his drug cartel once."

"You did?"

"Yeah it was the biggest drug bust we've ever done on the job."

"Then what is he doing in all of this?"

"If only I wish the leaders would've have read the demands out loud then we would've solved this already."

"Shawn, I don't understand, what happened?"

"Like I said. They were talking to the don named Ace which explains the weapons and support and I still don't know what this Omen guy wants."

"Why was Omen talking to this Ace mafia leader?"

"I don't know. It was as if somebody was dying. I can't be for sure."

"What do you mean as if someone was dying? How can you tell or guess?"

"It was a bit of struggle in the middle. Like being hooked onto life support in a way."

"So who's dying Omen, Ace, who?"

"Phoenix I don't know, I'm not even sure if anyone is dying. All I know is I just saw the guy who I tried to arrest a few years ago ball his eyes out. The don himself was crying and Omen had to calm him down."

"I'm sorry, Shawn. I didn't mean to make you upset."

"It's okay I'm not upset I'm just confused as hell right now. Because I can't make sense of what the hell is going on or what the hell these guys want."

"We'll talk more about this when we meet Blair in the morning."

"Okay. At the moment, I need to get some sleep, wearing that outfit most of the day and walking around the ship with not many breaks is killing me."

"Okay Shawn. Get some rest."

"Phoenix, this may sound cheesy but can you stay with me for the night please. I just need your company at the moment because all day I was scared and worried that something could've happened to you while I was out patrolling."

"Of course, Shawn. You know I will always be there for you."

Phoenix lays in bed next to Shawn as her arms cover his chest and Shawn's arm was over her head and slept the night away.


Monday…

The next day…

The week starts again as Shawn, Phoenix and their friends as they were waiting for Blair at the gym. They were all in the workout clothes.

"Can we trust this girl Shawn?"

"Trust me. She hates them just as we do. Ready to go meet her?"

"I guess."

Around that time, Blair finally enters from the changing room. She was now in a workout outfit consisting of a Red tank top with "VICTORIA" written on the chest area, black shorts with white lining, black stars at the ends, black fighting gloves and black straps wrapped around the feet and ankles.

"Alright welcome to MMA private lesson 101. I am Blair former five time defending lightweight mixed martial arts champion and I will be showing you guys how to kick ass and make a better bad ass out of yourself in my own personal style. Before we begin does anyone have any questions?"

Lex raises his hand first.

"Can I use the bathroom?"

"You are being taken hostage on a ship. You'll hold it! Any other questions?"

No one answered.

"Good now before we start I want to know a little of your martial art backgrounds, particularly what styles you've done. Why don't we start with you Shawn. What's your fighting style?"

"Well I wrestle, some of MMA and mostly Jeet Kune Do . Phoenixes is just Jeet Kune Do mixed with kickboxing."

Shawn demonstrates a bit Jeet Kune Do to Blair as he does a few flips and kicks with a mix of martial arts.

"Not bad, needs work but it can be improved. So what about your friends, come to think of it who are you four and what can you four do?"

Lex stands up to demonstrate of what he can do.

"Well I do boxing. Is that enough?"

"Depends on how good you are into it. What about you three?"

"I'll show you."

Lex gets up as he demonstrates bad karate as Blair facepalms in disappoints nodding her head so as Kia looking disappointed.

"Honey stop, please."

"That's Karate dumbass. Really bad Karate in your case."

"Well… it's in progress."

"Oh Arceus this going to be a long session with private lesson and chatting. Ok what can you do." Blair looks at Kia.

"Oh, I don't fight."

"I see, have you ever participated in any Pokemon battles?"

"I've battled a few times with Luke during Johto league. How's that?"

"Better than your boyfriend's shitty attempt at Karate."

"Hey! I said it was progress."

"Geena?"

"I know some Judo when I was in Japan with Luke before we had Lex and Kia."

"Do you know any moves?"

"Yes, I know the Juji Gatame, the Uchi Mata and Okuri Eri Jume."

"Okay then show me."

Geena demonstrates Juji Gatame as she throws Luke to the ground with his arm locked between her legs as he was in pain.

"Not bad, you got skills, I like. So what does your victim between your legs know?"

Luke muffled something underneath Geena.

"What?"

Geena let's Luke go.

"I said that freakin hurts."

"I didn't ask for your bitching I asked for what do you know."

"I know boxing."

"Ok you know boxing. Do you at least know boxing better than Karate guy over there?"

"Yes."

"Hey! I said it was progress."

Luke demonstrates boxing on a boxing bag as he gives uppercuts, left hooks, right hooks and so on. Blair observed his tactics and looks back at him. "As someone who also practices boxing, you could use a little work with your stamina. Luckily that's why I'm here."

"Look are we going to talk about how we're going to kick these bad guys off the ship or are you going to bore us with lessons all day long?"

Blair demonstrated her boxing ability by doing a low punch on Luke's stomach to knock him to his knees a little.

"We'll get to that but we have to be careful so keep quiet about it and play along with the lesson. So now that I know what you know I think its only fair I share my info with you. As you know I already know boxing but I also know muay thai and vale tudo as well as aikido and Capoeira. I hold high ranks in each style and I've been practicing since I was six. I have won several championship and I was even enrolled into the hall of fame last year after my retirement."

(Phoenix mumbling) "Six? Geez, she couldn't be more of a bitch."

"I still heard that. Is there anything particular you wish to share Mrs. Phoenix?" Blair asked with her arms crossed.

(Growls under breathe) "No." Phoenix looks away angry

"Why the long face and look away?"

"It's nothing. Let's get on with this shit."

"Alright. Shawn I'm going to need you to step up to showcase how to set up different follow up combinations."

Shawn stepped up on the mat with Blair. "Now everyone I need you to all watch closely what I do."

Blair turned Shawn around to face her and carefully set up a grappling position with him. As she did this she asked Shawn. "So what new information do you have now on those Legion people. Did you find out how they're getting their weapons and supplies?"

"They get their supplies from a Mafia and their leader named Ace. He's a Lucario pretty much the don but I still don't know what they want."

Blair showcased a few knee strikes but didn't hurt or even touch Shawn just showcased the techniques. From there, Blair trips Shawn to the ground slowly and sets up a gentle sleeper hold.

"I was listening in with some of the soldiers. They don't even know what they're here for. They're just wanting to help Omen get whatever he's after. So my guess is that only the leader and his lieutenants know what they want. All the other soldiers don't know anything they're just following orders loyally to the absolute letter."

"Hopefully we can find something out."

Blair finished her demonstration on Shawn and motioned for him to repeat what she did on her.

"How do you know the mafia is in on this?"

"He was talking to the don as if somebody was dying."

"Somebody was dying? What now?

"No. I'm saying it felt like that from the looks of it."

"Looks of it, I need all the details Shawn, and your hold is to light by the way."

"So it has to be harder like this?"

Shawn holds Blair a little more tighter as his chest was close to her back. Phoenix grows a little anger seeing them this close.

"Good, now tell me everything that happened with this Don guy and Omen."

"Well from there we've been 24 hours before anything happens and something tells me that it's not going to be pretty in a week."

"I see, so we're on our own on this. Alright good job Shawn, Phoenix would you care to step up next. I want to see you perform the same technique I just had Shawn do."

Phoenix stands up as she prepares to perform the same move.

"So Phoenix what did you learn from that Albino Lucario?"

"Not much. He kept everything quiet. Wouldn't say a word."

"I see, so he's one of those type of guys. That's going to make things very difficult because he's the less likely to talk about anything. Still we need to keep an eye on him if he is one of Omen's Pokemon."

"Agree."

"Okay next I want you to perform the takedown smoothly but quickly before setting up the sleeper hold." Just like Shawn did okay."

"Okay."

Phoenix begins to take position as she trips Blair with a low kick as she drops onto the ground. Phoenix quickly grabs Blair by the neck as grips hard by the neck.

"Alright well done, let's move onto Mr. Karate kid in progress."

Phoenix continues gripping harder. "I'm not finished yet."

"Oh but I am." Blair elbows Phoenix in the face, grabs her arm and twists it in a armlock behind her. She quickly knocks her to the ground and sets up a leg lock to hold her in place.

"Okay I know you don't like me but this is not a time for a who's the bigger bitch contest so why do you go ahead and tell me what the hell is your problem because I am not going to die on this cruise from these terrorists just because you've got some grudge."

"Then next time don't gang up on my husband."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"The way how Shawn looks at you. It makes me angry."

Blair let's Phoenix go and stands up.

"Sweetheart I have nothing to do with that. That's between you and your husband, right now I just want to get back home ok. I've got a family to take care of alright so I'm begging you for their sake and your family's sake that you cut the crap and give me a break."

(Sighs) "Look I'm sorry okay. I'm just not use to other woman gang on Shawn like that. I really didn't mean it."

"Look from what I can tell this should between you and him. As for me I have nothing to do with it because I can't help everywhere I go people stare at me because of how my body is built. Why do you think I took martial arts and joined the military in the first place and decided to run a nightclub as both its manager and bouncer after that?"

"I see but still I'm sorry about this. We can still be friends?"

Phoenix holds her hand out hopefully she gain her forgiveness

"Luckily for you I'm a very forgiving person but please talk with your husband on whatever's bothering you about this because I do not want to have to kick your ass a third time when I've got more important things to worry about at this moment. Alright class dismissed we'll continue same time first thing in morning, great job everyone."

As everyone leaves the the gym Phoenix stops Blair for a moment to ask her.

"Blair, let me ask you this one thing."

"What is it?"

Phoenix gives a smirk on her face "Are you turned on by my husband?"

Blair sighs a little sadly. "No, I, it's complicated."

"It's okay. You can tell me. I can see your nipples tightening."

"Phoenix you don't understand. I'm married."

"Really? Are you or are just too scared to tell me?"

"Alright if you want a girl to girl talk then meet by the cruise pool and I guess I'll tell you everything. In the meantime I need Shawn to keep spying on those people for us. I really need to get home as fast as possible."

"Alright I'll meet you there."

As Blair left to change in her normal outfit. Shawn walked up to Phoenix.

"What was that about, are you ok Phoenix?"

"I'm sorry for acting like that. I'm just not use to other woman being close to you like that."

"It's okay Phoenix. I know you love me and I love you too. No man or woman is ever going to get between us."

"Okay."

After Which, everyone went back to their usual spying schedule Shawn got back dressed in the Legion uniform while Lex and Kia went back to the lobby to spy more on Aaron. Geena and Luke stayed in the room to keep the cameras under control. Meanwhile Phoenix put on her blue bikini and went to the cruise ship pool to meet up with Blair. She took a seat at a table and ordered a drink and waited for the Zoroark to appear. She soon spotted Blair heading her direction, wearing a purple thong bikini. Blair took a seat next to Phoenix and ordered herself a beer.

"I see you made it, alright what do you want to know?"

"You said you were married. Are you really?"

"In a way yes and no."

"That still doesn't explain anything."

"Alright I'll answer. Yes I'm married but my husband has been dead for five years now."

"I'm sorry. I didn't know. I didn't mean it."

"It's alright, it's not something I share or talk about even with the girls who work at my own bar. And that says something because every girl who works at my bar I took under my wing to try and help them make the money they need for a better life as well as teach them everything I know to defend themselves from the bullshit of the real world."

"Yes, I know. Life is pretty difficult."

"Lady no offense but you don't even know what difficult is. At least not what I've seen. And as for my nipples going hard all of a sudden. I honestly don't know where that came from I guess its because I haven't had a good sex experience in ten years. Well to be honest I haven't scratched that itch in ten years either. I guess I must have a serious case of sexual build up for some random guy like your husband to make me have my nipples tighten just for pressing his chest on my back because that normally never happens. And I do mean never happens."

"Well my husband is a good love machine. I'll tell you that much."

"I rather not talk about love machine if it's alright with you."

"No worries."

"But if you want the whole story you might as well get me another beer and I'll get drunk enough to tell you everything. Might as well since we're out here with those terrorist guys watching everyone's move and here I am telling a stranger about my deceased husband who I wouldn't even tell our twin girls about. And what the hell does that say about me?"

Phoenix orders another beer as they bring another bottle for Blair and begins drinking.

"So what's your next question as the alcohol begins to kick in?"

"Kids?"

"Oh yes, me and my husband had only two kids before he died. Twin girls, both of them shiny Zoruas. They just finished their first year at kindergarten this year."

"I have two kids too. Zeya she's a greninja and my human baby Abby. Abby just learned how to walk on her own two feet and it was on Mother's day."

"On mother's day huh? Last mother's day the twins actually made a documentary about my life and what a special mom I was to them. It was both touching and heartbreaking because they honestly have no idea the shit I had to do in life, the choices I had to make and currently make."

"Trust me. My life was difficult before I met Shawn. It was winter a few years back. I was being abused by another trainer that nearly killed me. Until that one day I saw him beat that trainer and helped me to the Pokemon center. I never left his side then."

"Looks like we're in the same boat but the only difference is unlike you my life continues to be a tour to hell even after I tried getting my life straight. Like I said I've been training in mixed martial arts ever since I was six because I didn't feel like being ms. goody, goody two shoes and allow any pervert to stare or try to take advantage of me. So I turned myself into a tomboy who ended up with a smoking ass body which you see before you in a purple thong bikini. I entered the military because they offered to pay for my college. Did some very really sick shit for them for a few years. The kind of shit that would scare even Arceus. But that came to an end when I got captured and beaten to the point that I got an arm, leg, an eye, and a few other body parts removed. Luckily I was saved by the the badass military man who would eventually become my husband. I was honorably discharged for my injuries and I was retired just like that. Fortunately enough for me we live in a time where technology is as magical as Arceus himself. So I was able to get my missing parts back into through the use of cloning the parts and you know the rest. I didn't want to go back to the military so I went to MMA and got famous, reputation, shit ton of money, the celebrity life. As for the man who saved me we ended up getting married shortly after my surgery. Got another beer or is this story boring you yet?"

Phoenix orders another beer. "No, I'm just getting sadder but at least you still have your kids."

"Better save those tears and order yourself a beer too because that's not even the tip of the iceberg. Anyrate I forgot to mention that my husband was a human just like yours and despite the whole humans can't have kids with pokemon we for I don't know what but only Arceus know were able to despite me being a Zoroark and him being a human. But our girls ended up not inheriting any of his traits only mine. But they were still his by blood relation that sprouted from those youthful loins of his Arceus rest his sweet soul. Weird isn't it?"

"That is strange. I've never knew that can happen."

"That's what the doctors said and all the specialist and experts kept saying. Really gave the damn paparazzi something to bug the living shit out of us for. So going back to my sad and somewhat pathetic tale. So there I was with basically everything a woman could ever dream for. I had fame, fortune, a wonderful husband and two beautiful daughters. Yes I had PDST but that wasn't an issue because I went to therapy for that. And I bet you're wondering why is my life hell even when I had all that right?"

"Yeah. Want another beer for this?"

"I recommend you grab yourself one and get drunk fast because now I'm at the tip of the iceberg of the shit of my life."

Phoenix orders two more beers as they continued drinking together.

"My personal hell really all started with one word. Arnis Syndrome, ever heard of it?"

"Nope."

"Arnis Syndrome, a disease so rare it's not even in the medical history books. This syndrome erodes the ability of one's lungs to take in oxygen, and eventually spreads out to other organs. It is noncommunicable, and there is currently no known cure for it. My husband was suffering from it for five years. Even before we knew each other."

"I'm sorry for you."

"Honey I haven't even started. It was the reason why at first he didn't want to consummate our marriage until a year later. He went to extreme lengths to try and keep it from me because after the military he didn't ever want me to experience any kind of suffering like that again and he thought me knowing what he had would do that to me. Did you know we only had sex once and only once and that's how I ended up getting pregnant with our twins. Something that scared him to death because not only did the impossible happen but there was a chance one or both of our girls could've inherited the disease from him. But he still kept quiet about it when he saw that our girls were healthy which I pray to Arceus that they will always be and currently are. Still about a year after our girls were born, all those harsh years of dealing with it was finally took its toll on him. Like I said we've only had sex once and only once and me having so much sexual tension build up I tried pushing for more sex because we really needed it. So one night when we tried he ended up struggling to breath and was having migraines, blacks out, he couldn't even move. So I took him to the doctor and that's when I discovered he had Arnis Syndrome for about ten years. Yes he even had it and was suffering from when he saved my life. Are you drunk yet?"

(Slurring) "Drunk enough to hear the entire thing. Keep going." Phoenix sips the beer

"Good because now begins the worst of it all. Since there was no cure and he was practically dying, they offered to put him to sleep and end his suffering. But he refused, I mean refused to die like that. He didn't want to die and leave me with our infant daughters. So for another month or two he forced himself to suffer through it, refusing to die any way possible. He would go as far as to try and attack the doctors in fear that they may try to mercy kill him. He really was scared of dying not because he feared for his life but our own. Then finally one night when we brought him home for the twins' first birthday. it attacked him like I have ever seen any disease attack anyone before. I knew at that point there was nothing he or anyone could to try and prolong it anymore. So I had no choice but to do the only thing I could do. I took a gun and put him out of his misery."

(Gasps) "My Arecus." Phoenix gasps as she covers her mouth in shock

(crying) "On our twins first birthday too. He wasn't going to let any doctor touch him because he didn't want to die and leave his family but dear Arceus if you only saw what it did to him how it was putting him through absolute hell. I couldn't take seeing him like that anymore I couldn't watch him suffer like that. All that horrible pain, he couldn't even kiss our girls and wish them happy birthday because of it. And since then I feel like I just betrayed him and stabbed him in the back because he was so scared of dying and leaving us alone. He didn't fear death he feared for us. Because once he died I was going to end up being a single mother with two infant children and he didn't want that. He wanted to be with his family to the very end. He wanted to watch our girls grow and enjoy the wonderful life we could give them. And I just stole that dream from him. And now after five years after his death I'm getting aroused by another man's touch because my husband never gave me much sexual attention because of his disease. He saved my life, he blessed me with two beautiful girls, and he loved me so much and what do I do in return? I betray him by putting a bullet in his head and stealing his dream to raise our family together and now I'm getting turned on by another woman's husband knowing my husband suffered because he knew he couldn't help the urges I had. Yes lady you don't even know what difficult is. And above all this my girls still think I'm all this and that and they have no idea I murdered their own father on their own first birthday."

Phoenix begins to tear up as grabs her and gave her a huge hug holding her tightly with her head on her shoulder.

"I'm so sorry, Blair. That is a terrible thing for you to kill your husband like that but be grateful you still have your kids."

(crying) "I am it's just I cannot even begin to imagine the last thing my husband must have thought when he looked at me with that horrified look on his face as I held the gun at his head. What he probably thinking right now with me getting turned on by another man. He gave me everything and I took everything from him."

"He wouldn't want you to be alone. He would want to see you happy even without him around. He want's you and your daughters to be happy."

(crying) "If that was the case then why didn't he let the doctors mercy kill him when they offered it a thousand times. Why did he let that disease put him through hell like it did to the point of where I ended up having to mercy kill him myself. Why did he have that terrified look on his face when I held the gun at his head, begging me to not pull the trigger..."

"Shh, stop it. He wouldn't want you to suffer like you're doing to yourself right now. He knows it."

(crying) "I can't help it, he begged me Phoenix, he was crying and begging me to not do it. He was a marine for Arceus sake, I've served with him during the military for three years, and when he saved my life he was badly injured while suffering from that disease. And not once did he ever cry or beg for his life. He was crying right there begging me not to kill him when he saw what I was going to do. And I just looked away and pulled the trigger. And now I'm getting turned on by Shawn, which how is that fair to my husband when he was unable to have sex because of his condition?"

"Stop! Blair, I understand about this. I hate to see you like this and your husband wouldn't like to see suffer like this. Stop beating yourself up over this."

"Hey is everything alright miss? Are you ok?" One of the soldiers close by walked up concerned about the scene he was seeing.

"Yes were fine. Just having a conversation."

"Hey wait a minute I know you. Your Blair right? Blair the Dark Kryptonite from UFC."

"Yeah the one and only." Blair answered calming down.

"Oh dear Arceus. Ma'am I am a huge, huge fan of you but I got a kid back home who such a big fan she wants to grow up and be just like you. If it's not too much to ask but can I get a picture and autograph from you for her. It would really make her very, very, very happy." the soldier asked excitingly.

"Sure, Phoenix can you take the picture for me and give me a sec to put something on."

"Sure thing take your time ma'am."

Blair wrapped a towel around her and puts a tank top on and got in position. The soldier actually went as far to take his own helmet off and reveal his youthful Kangaskhan face as he posed with Blair.

"We're not suppose to take our helmets off but I'm sure the boss will understand he's really cool guy. Hell he told me that if my kid was such a big fan of Blair I should go pay her a visit and ask if she would do private lessons for my kid."

"What's your daughter's name?"

"Sherry."

Phoenix took the picture and hands it to Blair who sighed it. It read "To my biggest fan Sherry, proof that your daddy now knows me personally. Blair the Dark Kryptonite." She hands it to the soldier after he puts his mask and helmet on.

"Thank you so much Blair this, ah man, she's gonna love so much." The soldier shook Blair's hand before returning to his station. The two pokemon heard the soldier kinda cheer in excitement as he made his way back to his station.

"I see people are huge fans of you."

"Yeah, shortly after Logan passed away I knew were all going to be covered by insurance and are military stuff. But I still wanted to help provide for Kelly and Ellah. So I opened a nightclub using some of the money left over to me. Which lead to me ending up finding girls from the street who were having it rough with the real world's bullshit. So I take them all in, train them everything I know, and let them work there to make the money they need to get back on their feet. And that has been my life for four years now. And here I am now drunk as fuck and spilling my guts out to a stranger while terrorists hold me hostage."

"Were not really strangers since were friends now."

"True but I just told you something I don't even tell the people that work for me who are like my sisters. Or Kelly and Ellah my twin shiny Zoruas."

Blair takes the tank top and towel off her and sighs in her seat as she took another sip of beer.

"So now you know my life's story, what now?"

"Well I want to do something nice for you."

"Don't tell me, you're gonna let me fuck your husband or something right? Man what type of beer did I drink?"

"No, we are going to fuck my husband. My treat."

Blair chuckles and hiccups a little.

"Look that is sweet and your husband is quite the looker. But I really should pass. I've already back stabbed my husband enough in life and I dont want to stab him the back again in death. Besides, what would my girls think if they found out. What would your girls think if they found out?"

"Honey, on our valentines day as a present for my husband and I invited another woman a Servine to my house for our love. But that was only because I invited her."

Blair just looks at Phoenix and took another sip of beer.

"Holy shit what kind of a perverted mess did I get myself into?"

"Don't look at me. You were turned on by my husband. So that's on you."

"Hey I have years of pent up urges build up and the thought of taking care of that itch never crossed my mind until now all of a sudden and even now I refuse to give into my urges in honor for my husband who felt ashamed of himself because he could never help me through those urges on account of Arnis Syndrome. What happened back in the gym was by accident because trust me that never happens."

"Look at you blushing. I can see it."

"I'm not blushing I'm drunk as hell. There's a difference between blushing and being drunk you know."

"Yes I know you're drunk but you're thinking about him, right now."

"Alright I give up yes I am but at the same time I'm thinking of Logan and how very disappointed he would be with me right now if he knew I was cheating on him over his grave. He would be rolling in grave I bet."

"You're not really cheating on him. He wouldn't want to see you alone again. He would want to see you get out there and find love again. He would want you to move on."

"But if I moved on, how would I be able to look at myself in the mirror or look at his picture or our twins. Knowing that he struggled to give the life he wanted for us and I just found someone else to replace with. After all he suffered through just so he wanted to live his life with us."

"But he did it for you so wouldn't suffer anymore."

"Logan, I mean. He was dying and he was in so much pain but he would rather suffer through it all his life if it meant he could be with is family. To move on or find someone to do things he could never do better to me would feel like an insult in his good name."

"You can't mourn on him forever. You have to learn to move on as if it was a divorce."

"It wasn't I loved him and he loved me and we loved our girls. I just, he suffered so much trying to provide for us. And if I found someone else or something that could do the things he could never do. Wouldn't that be me saying he wasn't good enough?"

"No. It would never change what happen between you two. Your love between the both of you will live on forever. No matter if it's death or the after life. Bonds like that never break."

Blair sat quietly for a moment and sighed.

"Okay, I guess I'll give it a try with you and Shawn. Might as well go at it with our bikinis on instead of switching back to normal clothes. Don't you think?"

"Yeah. Come on."

"Wait a minute doesn't he have spying to do?"

"No Luke is doing it right now. Shawn must be sleeping."

"Damn sister you really do want me to get in his pants don't you. Or are you just wanting to get in my panties?" Blair flirted.

"Maybe and it's to get that load off. I mean look your hands are in your thong already."

Blair looked down and noticed she was rubbing her womanhood through her thong slightly. She blushed red and quickly stopped.

"Shit in public of all places, why didn't you stop me dammit?"

"I just want you to prepare yourself for him. Lets go."

"You better hope no one was watching or I swear I will make you squeal at what I would do to you for payback."

"Don't worry. Nobody saw you."

Night time came by as they returned to the the room. They opened the door quietly as they sneak in and see Shawn sleeping on his back with his muscled chest exposed. As they walk Shawn slightly wakes and sees Phoenix and Blair in their bikini's as he wonders.

"What are you two doing?"

"Oh nothing we figured you deserve a nice little reward for all the risks you take." Phoenix said lustfully. "And since I noticed you eyeing Blair's body yesterday when we first met her and the way you held her back this morning. I figured why not let her help me out with that reward."

Blair nervously looks away. Still not sure if she should go through with this or not. Shawn notices her discomfort. "Hey you ok Blair?"

"Phoenix I'm still not sure."

"Come on. Like I said if you want to find love you gotta start small and you're still thinking of him.

"Ladies, can I please get a review of what I missed between you two because one minute you're in a cat fight now you two are here in your bikinis plotting something."

"We felt you need a stress relief."

"Yeah but Blair here doesn't seem too comfortable with the idea much Phoenix, and you mentioned him? May I ask who is him?"

"Don't worry about that. Let's focus on you. Come on Blair let's give a show."

"Good thing I learned some moves from the girls that work at my club. Which let me tell you Shawn, Phoenix, your pants will tear themselves apart. Just follow my lead Phoenix and enjoy the free show Shawn."

Phoenix first grabs Blair by the head and roughly french kisses her as their tongues fight in each others mouths. As they kissed they rubbed each others breasts in circles and squeeze them at the same time as Shawn begins to grow a boner. Phoenix lowers herself down to Blair's glory hole as she pulls her thong off and begins licking and sucking on it. As she sucks on it Blair makes sure her back was facing Shawn as she grabbed her butt cheeks and spread them wide to let Shawn see Phoenix eating and sucking her out. Blair slowly swayed her butt in small circles as Phoenix continued her oral pleasure. Shawn nods his head as he sees Phoenix sucking her off and Blair now decides to do the same as she lowers herself. However Blair did not pull Phoenix's bikini panties down. Instead she moved them to the side very slightly to reveal her glory hole from there, Blair took her top off and started rubbing her hard nipples around Phoenix's pussy lips very slowly. All the while she continued to swirl her butt to Shawn and keep her cheeks spread so he can have a perfect view of her slit. She then finishes rubbing Phoenix off with her tits, reaches up, takes Phoenix's top off and started sucking and playing with her breasts and nipples while fingering Phoenix and slowly taking her bikini bottoms off. She took Phoenix's bikini bottoms and using them to rub her slit slowly with them. Making sure Shawn sees every detail. They both smile at Shawn as they both continued pleasuring each other before they start on Shawn.

"Are you liking the show so far, honey?" Phoenix asks seductively

"Yeah." Blair tossed Phoenix's bikini panties which are now heavily packed in both Phoenix and Blair's juices right in Shawn's face. Giving him a great whiff of their combined liquids.

"Let's start the fun with Shawn, Blair. He could have some of this."

They both walk over seductively to the bed as they crawl to him with their blushing faces. As they approach him Phoenix pulls down his boxers as they see his clutch already hard. Blair blushes hard and felt a little sad.

"He's just as big as Logan's was."

"Who's Logan?"

"Don't worry about that. Go ahead, Blair."

Blair's hand slowly approaches his large clutch still unsure about touching it. She touches it as she felt the thickness at her grip and begins to stroke it slowly. As Blair did this, Phoenix took her hand and went for Shawn's sack and massaged his balls in her hands while Blair slowly picked up speed.

"Oh before we continue, Shawn we want you to hold it all in until the end, and we want you blow inside both of us. Okay?" Phoenix winks lustfully at her husband.

Shawn smiled as Blair picks up speed while Phoenix sucks his balls massaging them with her tongue. Phoenix spits on his clutch a little bit too wet it up a bit to make it feel more soothing for Shawn and Blair. Around that time, Blair lowered her head down to the tip of Shawn's manhood and gently started licking the tip slowly while still jacking him off in the same speed. Shawn couldn't bare it anymore he wanted to release in her mouth or on her face. Blair took notice of this and suddenly pressed a finger at a certain pressure point that connected his balls to his dick. Suddenly Shawn felt like he was about to release but no matter how hard he wanted, nothing would come out.

"What the hell?"

"A little trick Logan showed me on our first and only mating night. He wanted the experience to last so he showed me how I could prevent a man from releasing for as long as I wanted to. So you now you won't be able to release until me and Phoenix say otherwise."

"I did the same thing on our valentines. You devil."

"Well feel free to add to the experience and insure the lock is sealed if you know what I mean."

Phoenix smiled and did the same thing on Shawn which now not only prevented him from releasing period but also increased the amount of sperm build up in his testicles. Which made Shawn moan a little in pleasurable pain.

"Oh why do I have a feeling I'm going to love and hate this at the same time?" Shawn moaned under his breath as he struggled to endure what was going down in his balls now.

"You want to release so bad don't ya?" Phoenix asks lustfully.

"Yes. I want to. So badly."

"Then remember our agreement Shawn. We decide when you release and only inside our thirsty wombs at the end. Understand?" Blair mentioned lustfully.

"Yes, I understand."

They continue stroking him until Phoenix begins sucking him off but using Blair's trick along with the deep throat as her tongue fully wraps around it. Shawn can still feel the holding within as she finishes sucking his clutch and let's Blair take over and do the same thing.

"Oh, Arceus! Just let me release it, please!"

"Uh-uh-uh. We told you not until we say so."

"Why torture a man like this?"

"I love to see my man like that."

"Time for a switch." Blair suddenly pulled Phoenix away with her and suddenly brought her feet to Shawn's manhood and started stroking it with her feet and toes. She motioned for Phoenix to do the same with his sack which she did. As they did this Blair made out with Phoenix as they rubbed each other's slits and boobs in front of Shawn as they tag team foot job his loins.

"I don't know if this can get any better."

"Sexy we have yet begun." Blair moaned in Phoenix's mouth as they made out.

"Oh whats next?"

"I'll show you."

Blair got up along with Phoenix as they two got beside each of Shawn's sides and pressed their large boobs together around his dick. From there they rubbed their hard nipples together and licked the head of Shawn's dick while they stroke it with their large boobs. They even fingered themselves as they did and made sure Shawn heard and watched every detail as they looked up at him with drooling mouths and lustful eyes.

"Oh shit I had to ask!" Shawn moaned in pleasure and pain.

As they brushed their breasts against his hard clutch it begins twitching as he still can't hold it but the force it back. Both of their faces blush with their tongues sticking out as they look into his eyes as they pinch each others nipples and moan at the same time.

"Ready for the next round?"

"Do I have a choice?"

Blair and Phoenix removed themselves from Shawn's clutch and soon turned around and wrapped their large butt cheeks around his clutch and started stroking it with their butt cheeks while rubbing their butts together and fingering each other at the same time.

"Oh no. Not the ass cheeks."

They begin to stroke his clutch with their large butt cheeks as Shawn feels either to put it in one of them or release it on the both of their cheeks but he knows he can't release it not yet at least.

"Having as much fun as we are Shawn?" Phoenix moaned.

"I'll tell what's not fun. Not letting me release it."

"Oh quit your bitching you seem like the man who can hold it. Logan was able to hold Kelly and Ellah in his balls for five hours straight before he released them into me. If he can do that you can do it too."

"Who the hell is Logan? And who is Kelly and Ellah?"

They continue stroking his clutch as he feels it being massaged on both sides.

"Blair, do you think he's ready for the final part?"

"I know I'm ready."

Blair and Phoenix got off Shawn and moved into doggy position. The two slowly moved their butts in circles in front of Shawn and looked back over their shoulders. "Ready for the final part?"

"Yes but who first?"

"Give Blair a first, she's been having an itch for far too long and I think its time it got scratched."

"Just switch back and forth every five minutes."

Shawn first inserts into Blair as the large clutch inside of her reminding her of Logan and the only time they ever made love which gave them their daughters. It made her tear up in happiness and she moaned loudly. Shawn grips her ass cheeks as he thrusts faster into Blair until he pulls her down as she was on top of him. Shawn thrusts upwards into her as he holds her down with her arms behind her head. Phoenix joins in as she sits on Shawn's face and he begins lick and sucking on her glory hole. Blair begins thrusting down herself on him as they both slightly moaned louder as Shawn gives them both pleasure.

"Switch places." They both switch places as Blair sits on Shawn's face and Phoenix slides his clutch into her and got back to pleasuring each other. They turned around facing each other with their pleasured faces as they begin tongue kissing drooling from each other's mouth and rub their boobs and nipples together.

"Can I finally release now, I can't stand it anymore."

"Yes we want you to blow in both of us at the same time. Just switch back and forth while you blow!" Phoenix moaned.

The two got off of Shawn and got back into doggy position as Shawn inserted into Phoenix first and thrust for five minutes straight while fingering Blair until the pressure point finally wore off. Blair once again reminded herself of Logan as if it was him with her blushing face.

"Shawn, now you can release it."

"I can? Finally."

Shawn continues thrusting faster into Blair and switches back to Phoenix. He thrusts and switches for five minutes and already he was ready to climax. He switched back to Blair as she moans a bit louder yanking on her tail until he finally climaxed into her as she felt the white ooze soothing inside into her womb. Shawn released inside Blair for a solid minute before stopping himself, pulls out of Blair and shoves back into Phoenix where he started thrusting a little more and releases another huge climax inside of Phoenix. And for their finally Phoenix and Blair sit up to his clutch and took the last bits into their opened mouth faces as it splatters on their breasts and tongues. When Shawn finally blew until he felt dry in the nuts, he flopped right down in the bed tired. However to his surprise he saw Blair and Phoenix move into a scissors position and rub their cum covered and stuff pussy's together while they made out with their cum covered bodies and again rub and play with their breasts and boobs. Shawn would've had another hard on if he wasn't so tired from the experience. The two did not last long as they released their juices onto each other after a short while. They dropped onto the bed tired.

"So Shawn, enjoy the fun?" Phoenix asked.

"Maybe we should try that more often."

"What about you Blair? Blair?"

Shawn and Phoenix saw Blair pull out something from her purse. It was a photo of some sort. She sat down and looked at it happily while some tears streamed down her face.

"Blair, you okay?"

Blair looked at Phoenix, walked back to the bed and sat back in it. there she showed the picture to them.

"This is a picture of me and Logan on the day Kelly and Ellah were born."

Shawn and Phoenix sees twin shiny zorua's, Logan and herself in the picture at the Pokemon center.

"This is your family?" Shawn asks.

Blair nods her head as she looked at the picture. Particularly Logan's picture as he held one of the twins gently.

"I didn't know you had a husband and family."

"Yes, this is Logan. My wonderful husband, his strong body, handsome face, his sweet personality. You reminded me of him so much like you a clone of him or something."

"So did you just cheat on your husband?"

"No, I didn't."

"How so?"

"He passed away three years ago."

"I'm sorry."

"But now I finally understand that Logan wouldn't want to see me like this. He would want me to be strong like your wife Phoenix for our girls. It's not for me it's for Logan and my daughters. Thank you for showing me the way Phoenix."

"Your Welcome."

Meanwhile with Lex and Kia as they continue following Aaron around at the main lobby of the ship. Eventually Aaron stopped at a sushi restaurant and ordered something. Lex and Kia did the same and stayed close.

"Wow, we've been following this dude all day and he hasn't said a word to anyone or even looked at anyone in the eye. I'm telling you let me take this dude and beat the information out of him Kia."

"Not unless you want him to beat the crap out of you and tie you up. Fine by me"

"Kia look at him and look at me. Does it look like he can beat the crap out of me and do all that stuff. Yes my karate is a work in progress but I've taken down several lucario's in the past what makes him any different than the ones we faced with Luke and Geena?"

"But he's not like any other Lucario you've fought before. He's different."

"Tauros shit. The only difference I see is the color. Sure I'm guessing he's a tough guy if he was able to do what he could do to Luke and Geena but one he caught them off guard and two they didn't know what to expect. He won't catch me off guard and I know what to expect. And we both know I'm not an easy Nidoking to take down Kia."

"But he's more skilled than you are."

"Kia how do we know that? Come on have faith in me, I can take him. You know I can just look at the guy. He may hide the fact he's a badass and everything and he maybe a seriously skilled guy. But I've handled plenty of skilled guys and skilled Lucario's myself. Heck I beat a Mega Lucario once without going mega. If I can do that what can he do huh? Do you think he's more powerful in that form then a mega form? If I can beat a mega lucario then I can handle him."

"You know your problem is that it's your ego and pride. You think you can beat everything and everyone. You can't beat everything. Like Shawn said these guy's are highly trained soldiers. Made to beat the crap out of you. Now can we please stick to the plan."

"Alright I give. Luke is suppose to appear as a disguised soldier named Mike. He's going to call for us and speak with us privately in this restaurant or something."

"Alright then."

"Hey can I speak with you two Nido's privately, one of the soldiers named Mike asked.

"Go ahead."

Mike looked around then sighed.

"Alright how much were you guys able to find on that white Lucario?" Luke asked them.

"Well not much since he still walking around and doing nothing."

"Right now we're having sushi as he orders sushi as well. How about you?"

"Guys I haven't seen Omen at all today. he stayed in the captain's quarters all day so this Darkrai was in charge and I don't know if I can be disguised around that guy anymore that Darkrai actually made me shit my pants and he actually came up to me and said. "You can change your pants in a bit, I have some questions for you Mike." He's on to us I swear he is."

"Well we need to tell Shawn and others before something bad happens. I can tell things are about to get ugly."

"Hey when are we going to know what you guys are going to do to us?!" The three heard someone in the crowd yell at one of the soldiers standing guard.

"Sorry, I'm under orders not to reveal anything. Please go back on your day."

"We have a right to know dammit so tell us what we want!" A Tauros yelled as some of the crowed was agreeing with him.

"Sir please go back enjoy your night, we're under orders not to reveal anything."

"So you guys are just gonna keep us all in the dark while you watch every aspect of our lives?!"

"Calm down sir there's nothing to get upset about."

"To hell with this shit!" The Tauros rams the soldier through the wall as some of the people started attacking a few of the soldiers.

"Oh boy there they go." Luke actually had to hide from the crowed. A few more soldiers entered the area as they see the riot going on. Thomas was there to see it for himself.

"Just what we needed. Bring in Drake."

"Drake?" Lex and Kia asked.

Suddenly an intimidating Charizard wearing a sleeveless version of the Legion uniform while wearing no mask entered. He marched right into the riot and with little effort began taking down the aggressive civilians and pokemon. His speed, veracity, and even strength took even Lex by surprise. When he finished stopping the right. Omen himself appeared along with Shade.

"Ok what happened?"

"There was a riot master. They wanted to know what we plan on doing to them." Drake said as he picked up the Tauros who started it.

"I was afraid of this. But it looks like I'm going to have to encourage them to obey our demands."

Omen turns to everyone in the lobby and turns on a speaker to address all of them.

"I understand you are all nervous and scared in the position you are all. By all rights you deserve to know what our plans are. I do I will reveal my plans. However until then I cannot allow this kind of stuff to happen. So in order to make sure this kind of thing will not happen again. I'm going to have to make this person and example. Trust me it is for all your own protection."

Omen turns to Shade and nods his head before walking off. Shade walks up to the Tauros.

"I'm not scared of you freak."

"Your wrong, you should be."

Shade gently grabbed the Taruos' head and with flashing red eyes performed dark void on the tarours. Putting him in a deep sleep. After which the soldiers took the Tauros away somewhere and Shade disappears into the shadows. The very sight put everybody who watched in fear.

"Alright shows over everyone back to your nights. And guys let's get these knocked out people to Nurse Joy."

The soldiers and Drake picked up the knocked out people and took them to the inferemy.

"Holy crap. What the hell did he do to that guy?"

"I don't know but we need to do something quick."

"Like what Kia? Any ideas because I'm sure as hell open to some. I just pissed my disguised pants right now because that is the second time this day that same Darkrai has scared the absolute shit out of me."

"Well let's go tell Shawn at least."

"No offense but what is Shawn going to be able to do against that! The guy is over two thousand years old and is playing mind fuck games with me and Shawn."

"No to let him know what we're up against."

"Well I do need to warn him that I've both shit and pissed these uniform pants because of that Darkrai dude. Because it's going to be his turn to wear it in the morning and I need a break from that dark spooky I mean I'm telling you I can't stand his death glare and mind fuck questions games much more. The dude is driving me nuts and I've only known him for thirty minutes. I think I'm losing my fucking mind now. Quick somebody slap the shit out of me I'm going mad."

Lex slaps him back and forward repeatedly until he was out of it. Kia and lex secretly took him back to the room where they found Blair there talking with Shawn and Phoenix, the three still naked from the experience.

"I don't want to know or want to know why I should have a reason to want to know what happened here."

"Guys, we just saw what their capable of."

"Capable of what?"

"What that Darkrai guy can do. He made me shit and piss my pants."

(Sniffs) "Ugh, you don't need to tell me that. Now how am I going to wear it?"

"It'll be washed but you haven't even heard how he was able to do that yet, but can you guys get some clothes on first, this is quite the scary matter."

"Sure thing."

Blair, Phoenix, and Shawn got some night clothes on as Luke, Kia, and Lex changed and Geena entered.

"Ok what happened?"

"Apparently one of the other people on the ship wanted to know what was going on and the Darkrai put this guy to sleep. I don't know if he killed him or something."

"What did the attack look like?' Blair asked.

"He just touched his head and did a light show in his eyes. I don't know it was trippy man."

"Sounds like dark void. He just put him to sleep that's all."

"Oh thank Arceus."

"Shawn didn't you say this Darkrai was Omen's second in command. And he may know that you and Luke are in disguised as Mike?"

"Yes why?"

"Well we may have a problem on our hands. This guy is Omen's second in command, he's over two thousand years old, and he already suspects something is amiss. My guess is next time he may actually blow your cover or he could be telling Omen even right now about Mike not being really Mike."

"What the hell can I do then? I don't know if I can do this?"

"I may have to fill in the disguise a little. I can cast illusion or something. You know since I am a Zoroark."

"That can work but first let's clean the pants."

"Guys I am so sorry about that. I'm telling you I don't know if can stand being in the same ship as that Darkrai guy anymore. It's only been one or two days and I'm already starting to crack."

"Luke honey calm down, why don't we get some sleep and tomorrow we'll spend the whole day relaxing just you and me. Don't let him get you."

"I know but, crap guys I'm telling you I just don't know how much more I can take from all of this."

"Yeah I don't know how much more I can smell that crap."

"Guys come on give me a break that Darkrai, it's like ah man guys I don't feel so good."

Luke falls to knees and was struggling to breath.

"It's okay Luke take some big deep breathes."

"I can't shit I can't breath, oh shit I can't breath. He's in my head that stare. Oh Arceus help me."

"Geena, is there something for him?"

"Yes, he has a inhaler."

They grab his luggage as they look through the bag for the inhaler as they find it and gave it to him. He begins to take puffs as he calms down and takes a few breathes.

"It's okay Luke. Take deep breathes. There you go."

"Feel better now?"

"Yeah thanks. Guys I'm sorry but I can't go back and be in the same room as that dude anymore. The way he just stared at me the entire time, kept asking me questions I didn't know how to answer. And even when I wasn't paying any attention he would just pop out of nowhere, scare the flip out of me and continue with the questions. Said something about being nervous either meant I was either a coward or had something to hide and since Mike wasn't a coward he knew I had something to hide. I'm telling you this Darkrai is onto us and he's going to tell Omen and we're gonna be screwed. If I keep at it he's definitely going to see through me. I just can't do it"

"It's okay Luke. You're not going back out there. Blair is taking over."

"Blair you think you can handle that guy because you didn't see what I saw or have him play the mind games he played on me."

"Don't worry I can handle him."

"Guys I think I need to lay down. Let me go get changed and I'm going to hit the sack and Geena, this may sound dumb but can you just please don't leave me alone please." Luke actually started crying a little.

"Luke I'll never leave you."

"I know I know it's just, I don't want to be alone even when I go change to something else. I don't know if I can stand being by myself at this moment."

"Of course."

She kisses him on the forehead making him feel better. As Geena helped Luke to the bathroom to change into night clothes. Blair looks back at Phoenix and Shawn.

"Guys, they one time said they are everywhere and they are no where and that they are many which is why they call themselves Legion. And you mentioned one time they've got information on everyone on this ship right?"

"Right."

Blair started shaking in fear.

"Does that mean they have information on Kelly and Ellah?"

"Yes, I'm afraid. They have everything. They'll use everything to come after your family and mine too. Everybody's lives are in danger."

"Oh, I, do you guys have a phone. I don't have mine at the moment." Blair was almost in tears.

"Yeah you can use mine."

Shawn hands the phone to Blair as she dials the number to her parents. They answer.

"Hi daddy it's me, is Kelly and Ellah there? Yes? Oh mom just put them down to sleep for the night. I see. No daddy I'm fine you know me I'm just worried. Yes I know I'm not one to get worried as much and I know you how to handle situations as you've tricked everyone in the area to think you're some crazy old zoroark who stepped on one too many land mines back in Nam. Yes, I know, these guys have got a pretty close watch on everyone but so far they're not bothering anyone and I'm just doing okay. I got to go I'm using a friend's phone and I think they want to check up on their kids as well. I love you daddy, and mom. Kiss the twins on the head for me please. Thank you. Bye."

Blair hangs the phone up and hands it back to Shawn before she sat down on a chair and sighed deeply. Shawn approaches her as she tries to comfort her.

"I know. I'm scared for my family too."

"It's a good thing daddy is a war veteran, he knows more about it then anyone I know. He would know how to combat these guys. That and he loves to make people think he's crazy."

"That's some father you have."

"Yep, taught me everything I know and he can make me look like a rookie. No matter how good I get I always feel like an amateur compared to him."

"I'm guessing that explains why you joined the Marines."

"i joined because I ended up with a smoking hot body that allot of pervs wanted to take advantage of. So I turned myself into a tomboy with a large portion of daddy's help to deal with that. I joined the military to improve, but he didn't want me to join because he didn't want me to get PDST like he has. Because he was in Vietnam and you know how that shit went down."

"Well just be grateful that you came out alive. Like back when I was undercover cop with my dad and Nero. We were doing drug bust against the leader of this gang called the Syndicate but he found out we were undercover. He shot all three of us me and Nero survived but injured but my dad didn't survive he even went my mother and brother. I have no else in my family. It's just me now."

"I'm so sorry."

"I know. Wow, you are right. We are kind of the same."

"That's what Phoenix told me today."

"I can see why. Your Veteran dad, my undercover dad, your husband and me especially you and Phoenix. We do have something in common."

"Phoenix told me a little bit about her life while we were getting drunk."

"She told you about the abusive trainer?"

"Yes Shawn, I did."

"Hey guys I don't know about y'all but me and Kia are going to call it a night. We've been all over the place following that Albino Lucario guy and he's been laying low the entire time."

"Alright we'll continue tomorrow. Let's get some sleep."

As everyone goes to sleep Shawn and Phoenix cover themselves together but Blair felt alone looking at them.

"Shawn, can I sleep with you two tonight? It'll remind me of Logan."

"Of course, Phoenix?"

"Sure."

Blair crawls into bed with them as holds them both in his arms as they slept the night away.


Monday…

The next day…

While Blair took disguise of Mike for the day, Shawn figured maybe he should try to spy on this Aaron character, give Luke and Geena a break from all of this. Yet despite the fact the Lucario was suppose to stand out Shawn was finding it increasingly to difficult to find him. Sure there's like over maybe a thousand or more people on board but it shouldn't be this hard to find the guy. Thankfully at least he had Phoenix helping him out as they walked around like they doing romantic couple stuff.

"Where does this guy usually hang out or go for spare time Phoenix?"

"Ah no were, the guy just walks around and does nothing. Doesn't look at anybody or socialize with everybody he just keeps to himself and never makes eye contact with anyone."

"Makes sense. He's the silent type. We need to be careful on this or else we'll end like Luke and Geena."

"Look I think I see him at that bar."

"About damn time. Alright I'm going to sneak over and see if I can get close. Phoenix I'm going to need you go back and check on Luke and geena see if Luke is doing better, it looked like that Darkrai really messed him up."

"Are you going to be okay by yourself with that guy?"

"Yeah I think I'll be fine."

"Okay, be careful Shawn. I love you."

"I love you too."

They kiss on their good bye for a moment as Shawn slowly approaches him to the bar. He approaches the bar as he takes a seat next to him.

"Hey buddy."

Shawn looked behind to see a few of the Legion soldiers playing poker with a few of the civilians at one large table.

"Sorry to bug you but you want to join us. We're all bored as hell and we're gonna kill the time with some old fashion poker. Interested?"

Shawn raised an eyebrow and sighed.

"Eh what the hell you only live once."

Shawn got up and took a seat with them.

"Alright we need one more guy to join us. Let's see, hey you there, white Lucario. Want to play Poker?"

The white lucario didn't even look at them.

"I don't play games."

"Oh come where's your thrill of danger? Come on man don't just sit there all by yourself join the fun."

The white lucario can tell they weren't going to leave him alone so he got up and joined them. He gets up and walked over to the poker table as they begin setting the cards and bets. Suddenly the large charizard Legion soldier known as Drake took a seat and joined them.

"Oh sweet we got Drake on board." One of the soldiers said in excitement.

"I've meaning to play a game since I got on this ship."

"Hey man you don't ever play many games Drake what changed?"

"Master is making me play. Say's I need to relax and take it easy that I get too stressed and serious about you know."

"Yeah the boss does that. Alright we all set people?"

"Yeah, come on already."

Everybody gets five set of cards each as they get the same amount of chips that is worth 300 dollars.

"Too bad we don't have any sexy girls with us, otherwise we would've made this into strip poker."

"Let's just keep this clean please." Aaron asked clearly annoyed.

Everybody looked down into their cards to see if they can get the first bet. The first soldier already folds as he looked frustrated as Drake laughs at him. The next soldier throws his cards in as he gets a "straight flush" but Shawn draws a "full house" as he was pissed and left the table. Shawn brings in more chips from the soldier that left and gained 600 dollars worth of chips.

"Now there's only six. Ready for the next round people." One of the civilians on the table asked as he smoked a cigarette.

Everybody continues to look down into their cards as one of them nearly looked over on another person's cards but he pushed him back. The civilian draws a "two pair" as he smiled with the cigarette in his mouth but Aaron drops a "three of a kind" as he was shocked.

"What the hell? How?"

"I do not know. I never played poker this much before."

"Enjoying the thrill?"

"No. Am I done yet?"

"Nobody is done until the last guy stands and claims victory. Now it's just us five." the Legion soldier mentioned.

They continue to play as once again a soldier folds leaving the table leaving four left in the game. A few minutes passed later as the next soldier leaves leaving three left Shawn, Aaron and Drake. Shawn figured he could try and strike a conversation with these two to see if he can get any information on any of them. Starting with Drake.

"So your Drake right?"

"Yes."

"So what's a guy like you doing working for Legion?"

"Sorry that's classified and personal buddy."

"Because you know guys seem good enough for me to join."

"That would be up to the master Shawn." Drake answered using Shawn's name despite Shawn not tell him his name to start with.

"Wait I never told you my name how do you…?"

"We have our ways on finding out. The Lucario sitting with us here is name Aaron. But we can't get much on him because he's a mystery."

"I like my privacy you two." Aaron answered.

"So Aaron is your name, huh?"

"What's it to you Shawn?"

"Nothing."

Aaron just went back to looking at his cards.

"So why would you want to join Legion when we got you hostage? A former undercover cop."

"I don't know maybe get back out there but as a soldier for a private army."

"The master just doesn't take anyone who wants a job. He takes people who would have reasons and there's nothing your profile that have those special reasons. Not yet at least. For example, he was able to let me join because I want the heads of bastards who murdered my son." Drake scoffield.

"Oh so he takes murderous freaks like you. I see now why it's a private army."

Drake growls and throws the table across the room.

"Watch your damn mouth. My son was only three years old when team Rocket took him, his mother and my infant little girl away from me. I could not save my son but the master has allowed me to join so I can at least save my mate and daughter, the only family I have left!"

"Team Rocket? Your children got taken away from that shitty organization? Those guys are worst ever."

"Yes and I would've destroyed them easily if certain situations didn't happen."

"Since the game is obviously over can I please leave now?" Aaron interrupted.

"Aaron stop trying to leave your way out of this. You haven't beaten either of us." Shawn said.

"Then let's stop with the backstories and get this over with."

Drake picked the table back up and set everything back up.

"So Aaron what's your story?"

"I don't have a story."

"No, I'm sure you have one."

"I don't have one."

"Yes you do."

"I don't have one and if I did no one would know it or would ever find out."

"He's not lying, other than his name we can't get anything on him."

"Fine whatever you say."

Aaron just went back to looking at his cards.

"I say we make this final round more interesting." Shawn stated.

"Like what?" Drake asked.

"It's time to go all in. We put every chip we got now and sees who takes it all."

Drake throws his cards down.

"Sorry I don't do that, it's just you two now." Drake said as he got up and sat somewhere else to watch.

"This really is a waste of my time, why should I go all in for a card game?" Aaron asked clearly annoyed.

"Spoken like a true puss."

"If that's what you think I am so be it but I still don't see a point in having to go all in for this game."

"We'll see how it goes down. Put it all in."

"Give me one good reason why I should give a shit?"

"Well I see that pushing your buttons aren't working."

"I don't have buttons to push. And why are you so interested in pushing all of our buttons anyrate?"

"I want to see how far will you go." As Shawn said with a straight face at Aaron.

"Why?"

"To see if you're willing to bet on certain things in your life. Like I said how far will you go?"

Aaron looked at Shawn with his usual straight face and pushed all his chips forward.

"If it would get you off my back. Then all in." Aaron answered.

Shawn pushed all of his chips as they were stacked next to and over them. Shawn and Aaron were looking down into their cards thinking of which will draw or fold first. As one of them were about to draw Omen comes in to see what was all the ruckus about from earlier.

"Drake, hack told me that you almost attacked a civilian, is everything ok?"

Drake stood in attention immediately as Omen addressed.

"Sorry master sir. We were playing a game of poker and this civilian had one of those smart ass mouths sir. And he apparently likes to push people's buttons in card games. And well he pushed one of my serious ones sir."

"I see… maybe you should take it easy doing something else. Come on let's see what else we can do."

Omen motioned Drake to follow him. Before he left he looked over his shoulder briefly towards Shawn and Aaron locked in a intensive card game. Aaron draws his cards as he gets a "Royal flush" but Shawn also draws "Royal Flush" and became a tie.

"Well that was a waist of time." Aaron grabbed his chips and was about to get up and leave before Shawn said something.

"Well at least I didn't lose."

Aaron looks at him briefly before walking off somewhere as Shawn stares back at him. Phoenix sees Shawn at the poker table as she approaches him.

"What happened?"

"Well I got myself into poker with the soldiers but neither of us lost."

"And you played poker with that Lucario? What did you learn from him now?"

"I told you he's a silent treatment. He'll never say a word to me or anyone."

"Did you try your old pushing buttons method on him?"

"Well I got through to that Charizard but not the Lucario."

"Wow, he must be one serious silent type to be able to resist you pushing buttons. What do you know on the charizard?"

"He's one of those huge bodyguards in a way. He's here because Team Rocket did something to his family."

"Oh no. Shawn, it's only Monday I still feel like we've haven't gotten far at all in getting out of this. I miss the girls."

"I know. I feel like were not going anywhere with this crap. I miss them too."

"We were suppose to be back today for them."

"Yeah I know but they occupy the entire ship. Of course they'll keep us off course until demands are met."

"And yet only their higher ups know what the demands are. All these other soldiers are just doing this out of true loyalty and they don't even know or care what the demands are. And the higher ups are smart enough to let it slip out. Shawn, I don't know what to do now."

"I don't know what to do either. Let's just go back to the room and think of something from there."

"Yeah okay. I want to call and check up on the girls if we can when we get back as well. I'm really worried about them."

"Yeah let's go do that. I'm worried about them too. Come on."

They both leave disappointed back to their room. They arrived back to their room as Phoenix sits in a chair and Shawn picks up his phone and calls Nero. He answers.

(Over phone) "Hello?"

"Hey Nero. It's me."

(over phone) "Shawn? Holy crap! Good to hear you again."

"Yeah I just wish I had some good news but I haven't found shit so far."

(over phone) "Shawn, I hope this cheers you up because Glukhov is going to help you guys."

(Shocked) "He is?!"

(over phone) "Yes but he's trying to figure out what to do. He kept thinking worse of what's going to happen."

"What do you mean?"

(over the phone) "He keeps thinking that you guys wouldn't survive because of them. He fears the worst that you guys wouldn't have made it out alive."

"Why would he think that? Glukhov been doing what he does for years and he's never gotten that nervous like that before. You sure that was Glukhov, Nero?"

(over the phone) "Yes those were his words but now I can tell him you can handle yourselves up there."

"That's great, Nero but I want to talk to my kids now. Me and Phoenix are worried about them."

"Yeah sure." He hands the phone to Zeya as hears them.

"Hello?"

"Zeya? Baby, are you two okay?"

(over phone) "Yes daddy. Were fine. What about you guys?"

"Were fine also. Want to talk to mom?"

(over phone) "Yes please."

Shawn hands his phone Phoenix as she answers.

(over phone) "Mom, are you okay?"

"Yes honey were fine. What about you and Abby?"

"Were fine too. Mommy. Daddy. I miss you both."

"We miss you both too. Don't worry be strong for mommy, daddy and Abby, okay?"

(over phone) "Okay mommy. We love you two."

"We love you both too. We'll see you soon."

(over phone) "Okay bye."

"Bye."

She hangs up and gives it back to Shawn as sit next to each other looking sad and disappointed. Luke and Geena return as they see Shawn and Phoenix looking down as they wonder what's wrong.

"Hey guy's are you okay?" Geena asked

"No. Everything we've done has not been getting anywhere. I feel like we'll never escape."

"Guy's I've seen your true love you've never given up this before. Like how you got me and Geena to get along again."

"We're not giving up we're just frustrated that we're not making any progress and we just want to see our kids again. We were suppose to see them today if all of this didn't happen."

Blair approaches them. "I know I was suppose to see my kids too. I miss my little twins."

"We miss our girls too." Phoenix stated.

"Hey Luke, did you and Geena ever thought about having kids?" Shawn asked.

"Nah, the thought has occurred allot but we just you know, don't have the money and other things to take care of them. Besides we're more happy spending time with each other." Luke answered.

"Yeah we don't have plans to have kids soon. Maybe in the future but not right now." Kia answered.

"So what now, Blair?"

"We'll figure things out tomorrow. We'll sleep on it until then."

"Yeah good idea, I don't feel like doing much else today either. Besides these guys are not controlling our lives they're just letting us do anything we want on the ship like normal. They're just watching us that's all. So I guess a lot of rest today will do us all good."

"Yeah."

Everybody leaves Shawn and Phoenixes room as they go back to their own rooms as Blair was the last one to leave she winks at him as Phoenix witness her flirting on him as they were both shocked. Shawn and Phoenix looked at each other confused but forgot about it and went to sleep together for the rest of the night.


Tuesday…

The next day…

Nero and his family with Zeya and Abby were going grocery shopping but it started to rain heavily as they were trying to get through the thick rain but it was pouring too hard and didn't want Abby to get sick.

"Nero we need to get to the store I don't want Abby catching a cold."

"Ah crap, the store isn't but a mile or two from here. Crap." Hyro moaned under the coldness of the rain.

"Alright we've got two kids and a infant, time to go desperation mode."

"What do you mean Mr. Nero?" Zeya asked.

"Shortcuts, we're going to need to take some shortcuts."

"Honey we've never taken shortcuts."

"We'll just ask around. Hey you."

Nero pointed to a passing mail man.

"Who me?"

"Yeah, do you know where the quickest shortcut to the grocery store is at."

"Oh let me see. Oh yes, just pass by this area here with large mansion and allot gates."

"Thank you sir that's all we need."

The group were about to leave until the mailman stops them.

"No, no, no you don't want to go down there."

"Why not?"

"I wouldn't if I were you."

"That doesn't answer the question."

"Oh I see, you guys don't know who this belongs to right?"

The family shook their heads. The mail man points to the house.

"See that mansion. It belongs to crazy old man Koda. He's CRAZY. He step on one too many landmines back in vietnam or something."

"How do you know so much about him? You never even met him before."

"Hey I'm just the mailman I deliver the mail. But I'm always told to be careful deliver his mail because you never know if he may have his mail box rigged with a bomb or grenade or something. I shit you not one of my friends was deliver a bill to him and his mail box blew up as soon as my friend opened it. He almost lost a hand."

"Hey! Language in front of my children! How dare you!"

Tera slaps him in the face for using his language

"Sorry ma'am didn't the kids my apologies but I'm serious the guy who lives there is way past over flew of the cuckoo's nest. I got to get back to work luck and Arceus have mercy on your souls if you walk in that place."

The mail man drives off to continue his work. Suddenly they heard Abby sneeze from the cold water of the rain.

"Into the car quickly."

"Honey you take Abby and Zeya in the car. Me and Hyro are gonna see if getting past this place is a short cut or not."

"Dad are you insane?" Hyro asks

"Honey you can't do that, you'll be trespassing on his property."

"You did hear what the mailman said about him being crazy?" Zeya asked Nero.

"I don't believe in that fake of a story. Come on Hyro it's time to show the ladies how men take care of situations."

"I'm gonna die and I never even had my first date yet." Hyro moaned.

"You'll be fine kid. The house should be over here."

They come up close near to house to pass by until they had to cross over a very large fence. The two found allot of signs warning stay out or beware and variety of things. They also could tell there's a very, very thick jungle forest grown all around the house over the fence.

"Dad are you sure sure this is a good idea?"

"Of course it is son. Come on, do this for Zeya."

"Alright help give me a boost over this fence with all the scary beware messages."

Nero gave him a boost over the fence as Hyro follows along with him. Once over the fence, the two started navigating through the thick forest jungle environment they were in.

"Why the heck does this dude have a forest jungle all over his yard around his house?" Hyro asked his father.

"I don't know kid but I can tell he must be George of the Jungle."

As they finally came out of the thick jungle forest they see a large mansion on arrival.

"Or maybe like Batman."

"Finally there it is. Now can we please go back. I've got a serious bad feeling about this and please do not give me do this for Zeya thing because there are moments like that and there are legendary bad moments that prove more foolish than bravery. And this is turning out to be one of those legendary moments."

"Son this is one of those chances to prove to Zeya you're not afraid."

"Yeah but dad we are trespassing on a Batman/George of the jungle guy who a mail man says is crazy from vietnam's property. Even if he may not be crazy he can still have us arrested for trespassing."

Without knowing an old yet still intimidating Zoroark with his mane and hair cut short and military approaches quietly behind them.

"Name and rank Soldiers!"

Nero and Hyro turn around to see him holding a gun at them.

"See what I mean dad."

"I said name and rank soldiers!

"Sir my name is Nero this is my son Hyro we're just passing by."

"Oh I get it you won't talk huh. I see you two. It's because your Vietcong. I'm right aren't I and you are nothing but filthy communists!"

"Calm down sir we're not in Vietnam."

The zoroark fires his gun at Nero but it wasn't a bullet but some kind of dart. He ended up shooting nero right between the legs and made Nero fall to the ground in pain.

"SON OF A BITCH AHHHHH!" Nero screamed as he fell to the ground.

"You two are gonna be begging for death to come take you away by the time I'm done with you both."

"DAD!" Hyro rushes up to his dad but the Zoroark points his dart gun at Hyro.

"Don't you move soldier. I got my eyes and ears open on you both!"

"Oh shit!" Hyro panicked.

"Think you can just come here and sneak on me? You've been failing to kill me for forty years what makes you think you're ever going to put me down?!"

"What's wrong with this guy?"

"I have no idea."

The Zoroark shot another dart at Nero, this time he shot the dart in his neck. This made Nero yell in pain again. Hyro goes to help Nero as the old Zoroark held approaches and stops Nero by pointing his dart gun at him and aimed at Hyro.

"I'm gonna give you to the count of five to start runnin boy."

"Sir please we didn't mean too…"

"One Mississippi. Two Mississippi."

Hyro quickly started running to see if he can go get help.

"And the hunt is on."

"You leave my son alone you crazy…"

He shot another dart at Hyro this time in his back.

"Dang that hurts."

Nero was powerless to stop the old Zoroark as he disappeared into the thick jungle going right after Hyro. In the meantime Hyro dashed through the thick forest. Finding it hard to navigate and ended up getting smacked by bushes and tree branches most of the way. When he found clear area he sighed in relief. Making a mad dash he tried rushing through but soon heard loud explosions behind him. He looks down to see landmines.

"Shit you gotta be kidding me this guy has landmines in his yard?"

A dart misses him by mere inches as he saw the Zoroark up on some trees aiming a dark sniper rifle at him.

"I don't see you runnin boy."

Hyro started running for his life, jumping over exploding landmines as the Zoroark fired several darts at. Meanwhile Nero slowly got up and yanked the darts off of him. Whatever was in those darts caused him to get all woozy and he couldn't walk straight. Never the less he charged in the direction the two went. Meanwhile Hyro found himself lost in the dense jungle again. The old Zoroark nowhere to be found. He tried taking a rest by a tree, however as soon as he took a step, something caught him by the leg and sprung him high in the air to hang down from a tree limb.

"Hyro?!"

"Dad over here."

Nero shakingly pushed through the bushes and found his son hanging upside down from a trap.

"How the heck did you get up there?"

"I… uh… walked into it. Can you get me down please?"

"On my way."

Nero took a step and soon saw the same trap try and grab a hold on him. He quickly jumped out of the way and dodged the trap.

"Nice try buddy but I took survival lessons and I was the best in my class." Nero bragged.

As soon as Nero took another step, he falls right into a deep hole that was covered by leaves. In another trap.

"Smooth move, pops."

The Zoroark appeared. He looks at Hyro and shot him in the chest with the dart. Then he turns to Nero and shot him again, this time on his tail. The two soon blacked out.

Meanwhile back with Tera and the others as they still wait in the car for Nero and Hyro to return but Tera and Zeya begin to worry about them.

"Mrs. Tera, I'm worried about them."

"I know I am too. I need to see if they're okay."

Tera starts the car and drives off near to the mansion. Meanwhile, Hyro wakes up to find himself hanging upside down in a dark basement of some sort. He heard Nero mumble and wake up beside him who was also hanging upside down. He found the two are heavily tied up. Before they could ask anything the heard the sound of a knife sharpening at the old Zoroark stepped out of the shadows sharpening a large bowie knife with serrations on one side.

"Well now, you two are awake. Good. I got questions and you will answer them."

"I told you we didn't mean to trespass."

The old Zoroark threw his knife at the two. Purposely missing them both by mere inches.

"Let's go ahead and cut the act shall we. I know you both are no Vietcong. However, ever since that Omen guy made his speech the other day about his group called Legion. How they're everywhere and they are nowhere but they are many. Kinda makes me curious about my surroundings again. So I'm going to ask this. What the hell were you two doing on my property sneaking around like you were?"

"We were just going to the grocery store."

The old Zoroark walked over to somewhere and started digging threw for something.

"What? What are you doing?" Nero asks.

He pulls out a torch and turned it on as he started walking a circle around them.

"Did you know, when the body is struck with massive tones of heat. That it goes into a deep shock, and you don't feel heat but coldness. So unless you want to see if I'm lying or not, you tell me why the hell you were on my property sneaking around like two damn ninjas. You two spying on me for Omen or your Legion group?"

"We're not with the Legion group."

The old Zoroark increases the heat of the torch.

"Like my old drill sarge use to say. They don't have time for bullshit and neither do I. Last warning you two because very much like my old drill sergeant I am in no mood for bullshit right now."

"No, please!" Hyro begged.

The old Zoroark puts a protective face mask on turns around and unknown to them severely burns a piece of raw meat to make a loud sizzling sound. From there he takes a frozen Popsicle and taps Hyro on the back. Hyro thought his body was in shock so he screamed in fear from the coldness. The old Zoroark did the same thing to Nero and Nero had the same reaction.

"Now that we proved my theory was right. Do you guys want to see how much you can endure it?"

"Look we're telling the truth we were just trying to get to the grocery store." Nero yelled.

The old Zoroark shot another dart in Nero's stomach.

"Ow! Will you stop shooting me with those darn things."

The Zoroark yanks the dart out. Goes back behind them, burns something again and presses the Popsicle on their backs and makes them yell in fear once more.

"You guys can scream all you want but this place is sound proof and not even the Good Lord Arceus himself will hear you."

Tera pulls up to the gates as the gates automatically open wondering who was letting them in. They go up the driveway and park.

"I'll be right back."

Tera rings the doorbell as a sweet old Zoroark lady answers the door.

"Why hello there. How may I help you?"

"Yes I'm looking for my husband and son. My husband is a Lucario and my son is a mixed Lucario and Braixen."

"Oh dear. I'm sure they're around here. Come in with your children."

The old Zoroark lady lets them as Zeya and Abby run in the rain into the mansion

The old Zoroark continued his usual interrogation on the two Lucarios for fifteen minutes straight. He soon heard a phone ring and answers it but not before stuffing something in the two Lucarios mouths to shut them up.

"Hey Angel how're you doing you okay?"

Meanwhile back in the ship. Blair was in Shawn and Phoenix's room along with everyone else on the other side of the phone.

"I'm fine daddy just calling to check on Kelly and Ellah."

(over the phone) "Twins are doing fine they're still asleep with their grandma. I'm up taking care of some business so to speak."

Nero and Hyro mumble through their mouth clothes.

(over the phone) "What's that noise?"

"That personal business I was talking about. This morning these two Lucarios popped out of nowhere sneaking around my yard like ninjas. I got reason to believe they're part of that Legion group that's keeping you hostage on that ship. And didn't you say that got information on everyone and their families on that ship."

(over the phone) "Yes that's what I was told. How do you know they're part of Legion?"

"I don't however I am not taking chances. Not when I've promised to look after the twins for you. And you know I'm always a man of my word."

(over the phone) "I know daddy but what if they're not part of Legion?"

Nero bites through his restraints.

"For Arceus sake cut us down you crazy old bastard!"

Back at the ship, everyone heard Nero's yell over the phone.

"Nero?" Shawn and Phoenix asked at the same time.

Back in the garage, Nero heard Shawn and Phoenix.

"Shawn, Phoenix, oh thank Arceus! We've been abducted and interrogated by some crazy old Zoroark from Vietnam."

Hyro mumbles loudly from his restraints. The old Zoroark shot two more darts at Nero. this time in his knees making him yell it loud enough pain to make everyone at the cruise ship listening pull away from the phone a bit.

"Sorry about that Angel, the Mega Lucario here doesn't know when shut his trap. I've must have shot fifteen horse tranquilizers on him right now."

"Your shooting me with horse tranquilizer?"

The Zoroark shot Nero again, this time between the legs once again. Nero yelled in loud pain again.

"Make that sixteen and still counting. They got to be with Legion if they can resist my interrogation this long."

Phoenix over hears the screaming on the phone and wonders what was the noise.

"Blair, what is all that noise, sounds like our friend Nero?"

"My dad found two Lucario's and he's interrogating them."

(over the phone) "I am Nero for crying out loud this crazy old man has got me and Hyro hanging upside...:"

There was another sound of a dart gun being shot followed by Nero screaming again.

(over the phone) "Seventeen and still going."

(over the phone) "You shot me in ass! What the hell is wrong with.."

Yet another dart gun shots followed by Nero yelling in pain again.

(over the phone) "And that makes twenty now."

Phoenix realized it was them as confirms it.

"Blair, that is my friend. Nero and his son Hyro. Tell him to let them go."

Back in the garage. the Zoroark pregion."

"Bullshit they aren't. I've got no reason to believe otherwise."

(over the phone) "Blair please."

"Who the hell is that over the phone?"

(over the phone) "My friend Phoenix, daddy."

"Who the hell is Phoenix?"

(over the phone) "She's friends with that Lucario and his son."

"And you've got her in the room with you? Blair she could be with Legion spying on you or us and she may have sent these two to come after us."

(over the phone) "No, she's not because she hates them as much as I do."

"And even she isn't part of Legion how does she know these two Lucario's ante part of Legion? You heard that guy with the gas mask. They are everywhere and they are nowhere and they are many. And they've got information on all of us. I'm not taking chances here."

(over the phone)"Because they've not once tried to kill you."

"They pop out of nowhere sneaking in my yard a few days after that terrorist group announce themselves. Who had information on you which lead to information on to us. For all I know they could've been their first attempt because they never had a reason to come after us until now."

(over the phone) "Dad! Stop fighting me on this. They don't work for Legion."

"Blair, Angel please. I promised I swore to you I would keep Kelly and Ellah safe while you were away. And now there you are with your life on the line and I can't come over there to help you out of it. And I know the damn government isn't going to do anything for you because they didn't do a thing for me and team back in Nam and they did a thing to help Logan when he needed help the most. Sweetheart I'm not taking chances here I can't afford to with so much at risk dammit."

(over the phone) "Dad please. How will my children think of you?"

The Zoroark shook and dropped his stuff but his phone.

"Please don't pull that on me Blair you know that's not fair."

(over the phone) "Do you think it's fair torturing Phoenix's friends like this?"

"Sweetheart I don't know these people I don't know Phoenix, and all I know is that terrorist guy who's holding you hostage has people everywhere and I will be damned before I let any of them get close to my grand daughters or your mother."

Before he could continue the old female Zoroark comes down as she sees the two Lucario's and stops him.

"Honey! What in Arceus blazes are you doing?!"

"I spotted these two sneaking around our yard. I got reason to believe they're part of that Legion group that's got Blair hostage."

"Those are the two Lucario's that his wife are looking for. She is looking for them and have them down here."

"What are you talking about Sherry, what do you mean, please tell me you didn't let anyone in the house? Not with those Legon guys running around being anyone."

"They're not Legion. She's looking for these two. Now let them go!" Raising her voice at him

(Over the phone) "Mom, is that you?"

She takes the phone from him and answers Blair.

"Yes Blair it's me."

(Over the phone) "What is dad doing to them?"

"Interrogating them with his usual interrogation stuff."

(Over the phone) "Stop him or something. They're friends with this family whose trying to help me get back to you guys and off this ship."

"Koda, stop this nonsense. Right now!"

Koda froze for a moment before sighing. he picked his knife up and cuts the Lucario's down. Before they did anything he grabbed something.

"For the love of Arceus we're not." Hyro begged.

Koda shoves the Popsicle he used to interrogate them in their mouths. The two Lucario's look behind him and see what he was doing to them the entire time.

"You are not a nice person." Hyro commented.

"Geez what gave me away?"

"You shot me with horse tranquilizers. Twenty times!" Nero yelled.

"Quit your bitchin they're not horse tranquilizers they're regular throwing darts me and my war buddies use for dart throwing at the bar."

"That's worse!"

"A few of them were horse tranquilizers though."

"That's even worse."

"Koda, enough torturing them. Help me clean their wounds because their family is waiting for them upstairs."

"I'll get the alcohol to address them."

Koda left to go get the medical stuff.

"I'm sorry about this. He is very paranoid about the Legion group. Ever since they took the cruise ship hostage with our daughter Blair on board."

"Our friends Shawn and Phoenix are on that ship too."

"Are they now?"

"Yes but they're handling it themselves."

Koda returned with the medical supplies and started addressing the wounds he inflicted on the two Lucarios.

"Hey Sherry, are the twins still asleep?"

"Yes they are and I want you to stop doing this every time somebody shows. What if a child wandered in here?"

"These two were not kids honey, they were sneaking in our yard. And like I said, those guys can be anyone so I had the right to be suspicious and protective. I promised our little girl that we would look after the twins while she was away and you know I'm always a man of my word. Always. And I'm not gonna let those people come anywhere close like they have with Blair."

"I thank you for that but you need to understand is that not everyone is in the Legion group. You can't keep doing this to everybody you see. This is why we have no friends and can't make new ones."

"I know but it's anyone that scares me. They can be anywhere or anyone Sherry. It's like the damn war all over again only this time the enemy can be on our own home turf and we won't even know it unless we take precautions."

"You need to learn to let it go. The war stopped ages ago and you're hurting a family man with a son. That doesn't make you the man I love."

"That old war is over but we've been dragged into another one. I just...I can't even go save our little girl because it would mean I would have to leave you with the Twins and how can I keep you guys safe if those people really do decide to come after us and I'm not there for yawl?"

"I understand about that but you can't keep doing this to innocent people."

"Sherry, I don't know who trust in this situation. I promised I swore to Blair that I would keep you all safe. And with those guys being anyone or anywhere, I'm just at a lost. I can't tell who could be innocent or not at this moment. I admit I'm that scared. Listenin to me I'm spilling my guts in front of two strangers that's how scared I am of this Sherry."

Koda finishes addressing Nero and Hyro's wounds.

"That's why you need to put in a little bit of faith and not so to quickly judge everybody and not jump to conclusions. Now help me with them I don't want bad impressions, okay?"

"I'm pretty sure they're both capable of walking. I only chased them across our yard. This young Lucario mix Braixen boy here actually survived the mine field and he's still walking fine so far."

"I know but you've beaten them enough. Now help me."

"With a Popsicle. I didn't do much to the boy but the Mega Lucario here I just shot twenty something darts at him."

"Several at places that should never be shot at thank you very much. Last shot you shot me in the ass. I've been mourning for my ass." Nero yelled slightly.

"Come now darling. Your family is waiting upstairs for you two."

Hyro got up without much problems while he had to help his dad get up and walk considering he got shot several places with darts. The two help escort the two Lucarios upstairs to the dining room where they found Tera with Zeya and Abby waiting for them.

"Nero. Hyro. Are you two okay?"

As Tera got up and ran over to them hugging them tightly after being worried about them. Nero let out a small little yell as she grabbed onto some places where the dart wounds still hurt like crap.

"Seriously what did you put in those darts you shot me twenty times, a few on my tail bone?"

"Some were regular darts, somewhere horse tranqs. And then there were some I just made personally with a few neurotoxins from various plants and animals I collect as a hobby."

"WHAT?!" Nero panicked.

"Relax they won't kill you just make you walk funny and act like a clown with his head up his tail drunker than a sailor who had too much grape whisky."

"You better not be lying to me old man."

"Well this old man has officially kicked you and your son's tail. Speaking of which."

Koda pulls out a very old notebook titled "Names whose ass he's kicked." And writes Hyro and Nero's names down.

"And done. Sorry for the the bad language on the notebook ma'am." Koda addressed Tera politely.

"It's okay."

(Nero whispers to Tera) "It's not okay. That old man tortured us in his basement. Near damn killed me. And now to add insult to injury he just wrote me and Hyro's names on a whose names on a whose asses he kicked list."

"Well honey you did trespass on his yard even after we tried to tell you not too."

"We just needed a shortcut."

"I'm sorry my husband did this to you. He didn't mean to do this."

"If you really wanted a short cut why didn't you knock on the gate and Sherry would've answered. Instead of sneaking around my yard like Ninjas with that Legion group running around as anyone and everyone and no one.".

"He has a point dad. Mom's here doing fine just because she knocked on the door."

"Kid, I'm trying to make you impress Zeya."

"Um I'm right here you know guys." Zeya shyly answered as she sat on the couch holding Abby.

"Let me get this straight, you talked your son into sneaking into my yard to impress some girl? Do you know what you just put your kid through? I chased him through my minefield while shooting my dart gun at him, then lured him into a trap where I then proceeded to torture him with a Popsicle. And he didn't even want to go in my yard in the first place?"

"Yes, okay! I'm trying to get my boy a lady here but every time he hesitates."

"Sorry about this honey but this is just plain stupid."

Koda pulls out a little bibi gun and shoots a bibi at Nero's knee. Making him cringe in pain and hop on one leg. After that Koda walks up to Hyro and pats him on the back.

"Sorry for your troubles kids. If you really want to impress some girl come by and I'll show you the smart way on how to get a girl without you having to make a fool of yourself and putting your life on the line."

"You just shot me in the knee with a bibi gun are you mad?!"

Koda shot another one at Nero's face. Making him fall to the ground and grab his face.

"Don't be an idiot like your old man kid."

"Trust me I didn't want to do any of that. But I do want Zeya to like me."

"Um kid, you do know she's sitting right there and she can hear you, you know."

Hyro blushes heavily. Thankfully, Zeya was talking with Tera and Sherry to notice. Meanwhile Nero was mumbling something in pain and anger.

"What that's I can't hear you speak louder." Koda asked Nero.

Nero continues mumbling under his breath as Koda faces back to Hyro.

"That's what I thought."

While Koda was with Hyro and Nero, Sherry was talking with Tera and Zeya while Abby was still asleep in Zeya's arms.

"I'm sorry about my husband chasing your family around and interrogating him. We've all been a little under the edge with everything going on."

"It's alright, our friends are on the ship that they got hostage. Me and my husband are taking care of their children here while they're gone."

"How thoughtful of you. So what's your names by the way I haven't gotten them yet."

"I'm Tera I'm Hyro's mother and that's my Husband Nero. These kids are Zeya and this baby is Abby were watching them."

"My name is Sherry, and my husband over there is Koda."

"That's Master Sergeant Koda of the Green Berets honey." Koda answered.

(Sighs) "He's a war hero from Vietnam. Though not many people would say or call him that. Or know or want to know." Sherry answered.

"Well I guess that explains the mines." Nero answered annoyingly.

"Nero! I'm sorry Sherry."

"No-no. It's quite alright though I never liked the idea of placing mines. Now I can't plant anything nor can I let the kids play in the yard."

"I'll get rid of the mines as soon as Blair comes back and we got an idea on how to keep those guys from maybe coming after us. I promise." Koda answered as he headed off somewhere.

"Honey, you're overreacting again."

"Kids?" Tera asked.

"Yes?" Zeya and Hyro answered.

"I'm sorry Hyro, Zeya. Sherry, you said you two have kids here?"

"Yes but they're not ours. They're our twin grandchildren. Kelly and Ellah. They're shiny Zoruras."

Sherry shows a picture of them with Blair and Logan along with them on it.

"Who's that?"

"That is Logan my daughter's husband. He was such a sweet man, he loved his children and our Blair."

"Who's Blair?" Zeya asks.

"Blair is my baby that is on that ship now along with your friends."

"With my mom and dad?" Zeya asked.

"Yes. She told us she was going vacation for a stress relief."

"So Blair and Logan are on that ship?" Tera asked.

"No just Blair. Logan passed away four years ago."

"I'm sorry, Sherry."

"It's quite alright, Tera. I just don't know how my grandchildren can grow up without their father."

"What happened?' Zeya asked.

(Sighs sadly) "He passed away from Arnis Syndrome. He had trouble breathing through his lungs and passed away since."

"I've never heard of Arnis Syndrome." Hyro asked.

"It's something with trouble within the lungs having problems breathing through and it eventually spreads to other organs and prevents the oxygen in the blood to enter into them. It's treatable but incurable. Everyone who has it always passes away and the only thing doctors and experts can do is just ease the suffering."

"I'm sorry for you Sherry and for Blair."

"I know it's a tragic but for Blair mostly."

"How have your granddaughters taken it?"

"They don't even know their father that much. It was on their first birthday when he died and they don't remember him. Nor have we or Blair told them about him yet."

"How are they handling it?"

"Oh they're still only four years old. They're very innocent and still very much young."

"Again, I'm so sorry for you and them."

Koda eventually returns and took a seat.

"So, now that you know our story a little, what's your story?"

"Well me and Nero we didn't meet until our friend Shawn brought us to his brother Michael. We didn't know each other better until we helped our friend Shawn get his wife back."

"I guessing that's Phoenix?"

"Yes, she was kidnapped by the gang called the Syndicate. Me and Nero were alone for the first time and Nero stole my heart and took me in. He was strong and loyal to Shawn like a brother and I love him for it. We made love to each other that led to Hyro a mixed Braixen and Lucario."

"Oh how lovely Tera."

"Yes, I know. It was a miracle to have him."

Hyro felt sick on stomach having to hear that story again while Zeya giggles under her breath as Hyro felt embarrassed.

"Oh Arceus. If you excuse me." Hyro leaves the table as Zeya was worried about him and followed him into the hallway. She catches up with him as he was standing near by the window.

"Hyro, are you okay?"

(Sighs) "I just feel so embarrassed by my parents telling stories like that."

"I know how that feels. My mom tells stories about me and my laundry."

"Your laundry?"

"Yeah my parents tell yours about my problems in bed."

"You mean…?"

"Yes, I'm a bed wetter."

"Oh…"

"Yes, I know. I'm disgusting. I'm a 18 year old Greninja that wets her own bed."

"You're not disgusting if anything the exact opposite.

"What do you mean?"

Hyro blushed again.

"Well...um...uh..I..well its one of those...uh."

"Hyro. Zeya, we're leaving soon." Tera called out to the two.

"Okay! What you're saying now before we leave Hyro?"

"Um, tell you what, why not we settle it over a game of Killer Instinct at home, if you win I'll tell you."

"Alright you're on."

They walk back to Tera and Nero as they were waving goodbye to Koda and Sherry as they leave the mansion and back to the car and drove off home.


Wednesday…

The next day…

Shawn was on his routine patrol keeping a eye out for anything unusual or if something new happens until he heard some whispering close by.

(whispering) Psst...Shawn, get over here quick. It's me Lex."

Shawn looked both sides before walking up to the heavy bushes.

"Lex."

(whispering) "Shawn I got some very, very big news I need to share with everyone, get everyone in the room to meet up this cannot wait I think we may have a chance or something in finding out more on what this Omen guy wants."

"Alright then. I'll get everyone back."

Shawn leaves Lex as returns to the others as Lex will meet up with. As they were waiting for him Lex was the last to show up as he closes the door behind him.

"Well Lex what's the news?"

"Alright, I actually found something really, really, really big. Omen himself is actually going to have dinner at the main restaurant tonight with the ship's captain to show no hard feelings to him the crew and the passengers. Guys if we can find a way to sneak into that tonight we could actually maybe get some serious info from the guy who planned all of this and maybe find a way to stop him."

"That can work but both of his men and Pokemon will be there. One of them could break the truth about spying on him."

"Not if we take a variety of disguises or go down there like we're a couple enjoying another honeymoon." Lex smirked. "I already got my disguise."

Lex pulls out a chef outfit.

"Where did you get that?" Kia asked.

"I found it."

"Oy, what do you mean you found it?" Blair asked.

"Well I kinda had to steal it or mug it from one of the ship's chefs who work at the restaurant."

"That figures. Alright Lex when you get there don't screw up with the cooking, Kia you'll be the waitress, Luke and Geena stay here because I don't want you to get caught again, Blair you be the soldier me and Phoenix we'll go as guests."

"How hard can it be to cook?"

"Honey please. You're terrible."

"Is his cooking is as bad as his Karate?" Blair asked.

(Sighs) "Unsurprisingly yes."

"Hey!"

"Lex are you sure you can handle this? If you mess up you could get in very serious trouble."

"Don't worry. Nothing is gonna get screwed up."

"When is this going to happen?" Luke asked.

"Later tonight around 9. Security is suppose to be seriously increased and allot of the most trained and elite of the soldiers here will be guarding the area. Everyone on the ship is welcome to come just any other night. But Omen and the captain will be at the private seats on the far top."

"Alright me and Phoenix will try to get the captain's table."

"Um how are you going to do that? The captain doesn't know you and your not a guest. "

"No but I happen to be a celebrity and I can vouch for you and Phoenix." Blair said.

"Then you could join us at the table."

"Then who's going to be the soldier guy?"

Everyone looks at Luke.

"Ah fuck berries."

"Don't worry Luke, I'll come with you this time. I'll disguise myself as another guest joining Blair, Shawn and Phoenix." Geena assured.

"Alright then. Let's get ready."

Everybody prepares as they put on their best outfits as Shawn puts on his suit that makes him look like from fifty shades of grey while Phoenix wears her black V-shape dress exposing her cleavage and her entire back with her infinity love necklace with make up on. Blair wears a short blue cocktail dress with a lacey floral pattern around the neckline. Complete with matching blue strap high heel shoes, necklace with pendant and a white garter on her left leg. Geena wore a red semi strapless corset dress. Shawn was once again shocked dropped jaw at Blair and Phoenix as Blair closes his jaw.

"Geena these military pants are killing my crotch now." Luke mentioned seeing Geena's dress as he finished getting dressed back as Mike.

"Oh you'll be fine. Come on or we'll be late for the dinner."

"Lex and Kia should already be there in their disguises. Luke you just act on patrol like they tell you too. Blair is going to get us in with the special seats so we'll see you there among one of the soldiers."

"Let's hope this works. Oh and don't oogly eyeing my Geena too much Shawn."

"Don't worry we'll keep him on the leash." Phoenix mentioned as she slapped Shawn's butt secretly. "Right Shawn?" she whispered lustfully.

(Chuckles) "Damn right, baby."

They exited the room and split up to meet over at the restaurant they previously had their honeymoon night at the previous week. The area was heavily guarded by the Legion soldiers with one soldier checking anyone who entered.

"Okay be cool. That means you too, Luke. Try not to shit your pants this time."

"Yeah, it was hard enough to rub the stains out. Ugh."

"Look I'm sorry okay guys, now I need to blend in so. (clears throat) "Move along you three."

Luke entered to move to his position. When Shawn, Phoenix, Blair, and Geena walked at the entrance a soldier stopped them.

"They're with me. I got a special seat reserved at the captain's table. These are just some friends coming along with me." Blair said as she handed her reservation ticket to the soldier. The soldier looked at it and looks back at Blair.

"Alright let me explain some rules. Yes its true you have a seat at the captain's table however it's just going to be Omen and the Captain sitting at the table. There are other tables reserved around the same floor close by. You will only sit with Omen and the Captain unless they call for you. Other then that same rules the ship has and try to have a nice night."

"We will." Blair answered.

They all took a seat at the captain's floor in the restaurant close to where the Captain's table was at. They saw the captain sitting there in a wheelchair and a badly broken leg. He wasn't like that when they first got on board on the ship so the four could only guess that he got badly hurt when they took over the ship. The four waited for about thirty minutes ordering drinks. Omen eventually arrives with Thomas following him as he took a seat in front of the captain. Thomas stayed standing close to his side.

(whispering) "Alright there he is. What do we do next?"

(whispering) "Hey Lex you in position?" Blair asking

(from mic) "Yeah I'm in the kitchen. Kia is there taking orders. She'll be your waitress."

The four saw Kia in a waitress outfit walk up to the captain's table.

"Hi my name is Cherry Top but you can call me Cherry what can I get you two to start of for drinks?" Kia asked.

"Yes ma'am I'll have a montney shaken not stirred with a straw. Captain what do you wish?" Omen asked calmly and politely.

The captain didn't say anything at first as he looked furious. He did answer though.

"I'll just have a glass of champagne."

Kia wrote the order down and walked to go get the order.

"You look pissed captain."

"Let me refresh your memory that your Lucario broke my leg."

"I do apologize for that captain, I did ask him to take your crew as quietly as possible but your men kind of did not give him that option so he had to resort to Plan B."

"Maybe it's that you're a terrorist."

"I'm allot of things the world says I am. But I do not wish for any hard feelings dear captain I want you and everyone on the ship to know we are on your side. And we can't help you unless you help us."

"I don't care what you want."

"I know but I do know you care for the lives of everyone on this ship as well as yours because you have family and friends you wish to get back to am I right dear captain?"

"Yes I do have a family. Why are doing this? What do you want?"

"Unfortunately captain we are in public and what I want is something very personal and I would share it with my men if the situation was different. So my reasons are my own and they are personal so I cannot tell you why I am doing this and what I want. However I do want your help, I want the help of the people on this ship."

"How does this help as if it was DMZ."

"Because if you or the people on this ship don't help I will be forced to carry out my threat by the end of this week and I will be back to square zero. I do not wish to resort to that and I don't have the time either. If you were wise you would wish what I would wish for and that is for your help."

"Fuck. Fine. What do you want?"

"Simple captain, help the people on this ship convince your and their respective governments to give me what I want. That is all."

"How the hell am I suppose to do this? They won't listen to me."

"No but if there is one thing politicians care about is their own reputation. They are going to leave you and everyone to die on this ship because they would rather let innocent people die than give in to the demands of terrorists and stain their political reputation. You and everyone on this ship have family and friends. Why should the governments they turn to leadership let their love ones die? The politicians get their power from the people. You help turn their source of power against them they will have no choice but listen to the people and that's listen to my demands so they're loved ones can come home safely. Does this make sense to you Captain?"

(Sighs) "Sadly it does."

Kia brought their ordered drinks and sets them down. Omen raised his glass of montney with a straw to the captain.

"To your health dear captain."

The captain sadly clicked glasses with Omen and took a sip. Omen used the straw to drink his monteney through his gas mask. Luke overheard the conversation and tells them back to Shawn and the others.

"He's threatening the captain and trying to make him talk to the leaders to get them to agree."

"Agree on what?" Shawn asked.

"I'm still not sure. I'll have to get back to you on that."

Omen stops sipping his drink through his straw a little and sets his glass down.

"Now that we have that out of the way. Let's discuss the current issue about you knowing the identity of my Lucario among the passengers dear Captain."

"Alright everybody be ready. He's about to reveal himself."

"What about him?" The captain asked.

"You know he's hiding among the crowed among the passengers. You and anyone he had to neutralize would spot him from the crowed. And that an issue for both us. So what to do to solve this problem is the question now."

"Let me guess, you want me and my crew to keep our mouths shut about your Lucario right?"

"That is it."

"And why should I not turn him in. He broke my leg and sent several of my crew in a coma."

"Yes and if you want your crew to live through the coma and get proper medical treatment from Nurse Joy you and your men will stay silent about his identity and by the end of this everyone who has seen him working for me will have their minds erased by one of the psychic pokemon in my group. You do this, then we will allow you out of your cells to get proper treatment from the Nurse Joy here. Are we in agreement Captain?"

"Wow shit is getting real, huh Shawn?" Luke asked through his mic.

"Quite Luke. I'm listening."

"I can keep silent but you expect me to have me forget about his identity after what he did to my crew and leg?!"

"Be reasonable dear Captain. You and your men are deeply in pain with some of them in deep comas that may or may live much longer without Nurse Joy to help. All you have to end this suffering on your behalf and men is simply don't give my Lucario away and let him be erased from your minds when we're done. To me this seems like a fair trade in exchange for the lives of your wounded crew and yourself because I can only imagine what horrible pain you must be in with your current broken leg at this moment even as we speak. So are in agreement?"

"Fuck you! I rather die than let him get away with what he did."

Everyone around them over hear the captain's yelling as it catches their attention.

"He must be talking about the white Lucario guy."

"Dear Captain I understand your pain and anger. I do not wish to make this harder on you and your crew then it already is. However this is not a request but a threat and demand that is a promise. You so much as think of blowing his identity I will do more to you then break a leg Captain. Now I'm offering a very peaceful solution out of this problem and I demand you take it because the other options are ones you and I both know we don't want to choose. Now I will ask you politely one last time, for your wounded crew's sake, you keep your damn mouth shut. And after we're done, you will forget he ever existed. Now, are we in agreement?"

The captain looks around him and finally just rubs his face.

"Fine, just please let Nurse Joy see my hurt crew."

"You see now Captain was that so hard?"

"Go to hell."

"Dear captain, I've already been to hell. I can assure you, there are far more terrible things then hell that life can do to people. Take it from me personally."

Thomas whispers something to Omen. Omen stands up from his seat and takes him to the personally.

"Excuse me dear captain I have to address something I will be right back. Feel free to order your meal you wish I shall not be long."

Omen and Thomas walks somewhere where there wasn't many people around.

"What is it?"

"We've got trouble sir. Government sent their rescue teams and they're infiltrating the engine room as we speak. What are your orders sir?"

"Hmmm...send in Predator. tell him he has authorization to Terminate."

"Yes sir."

Omen walks back over and takes his seat.

"Sorry about that dear captain I had to take care of something."

Lex appeared in his chef outfit bringing a cooking stow they use to showcase how they cook fancy.

"Bonjour fellow guests I am Lapree the magnificent. What can I fix you?" lex asked in a fake french accent as bad as his acting.

"You did not tell me he was a bad actor."

"We are so fucked." Blair facepalmed and moaned.

"Well I'm still trying to figure out what I want. Captain would you like to order your meal first?"

The captain did not bother to say a word after that conversation he had.

"Come now dear Captain let's not have any hard feelings, order yourself something?"

"I have no feelings now I barely have a feeling in my leg. I'm not hungry now."

"I understand. I'll have potato soup please with a straw."

"Potato soup on its way." Said Lex with a bad french accent

"Oh Lord." As Kia's face covers her eyes shaking her head.

"Let's see he's bad a Karate, cooking, and acting. Is there anything he's not bad at?"

"He's decent in bed if that counts."

"Oh Arceus help him."

As Lex goes into the kitchen he goes to the stove, places the pot as he pours water in it as it starts to boil. He next starts to cut up the vegetables into pieces as if he was professional chef but badly and puts it in the pot for it to cook. He next puts random spices and minerals into the pot as he stirs it mixing it all in. Last he cuts the potatoes into pieces as he throws it in and mixes it in and finishes it. He brings it out as a mess and his friends were shocked to see him like that.

"Were doomed." Shawn facepalmed

Lex brought the soup over to Omen. Thomas looks at it.

"What the? I thought you guys were professional?" Thomas asked.

"I am but I figured I add style to it to add to the flavor."

Omen took a straw, stuck in the soup and started drinking it through his gasmask.

"Yep we're boned." As Luke nods his in disappointed

Omen continues drinking the soup until he stopped to taste the soup in his mouth. Shawn and his friends cringe hopefully he won't do something bad. Omen paused for a moment and looked at Lex.

"Well done, good soup there, I can see how making it a mess adds to the flavor."

"Uh yes thank you."

They sighed in relief as Omen enjoys his soup. When he finished he looked over to Shawn's table and noticed Blair.

"Excuse me Mrs. Do you happen to be Blair the Black Kryptonite former three time defending lightweight champion in UFC?" Omen asked Blair.

"Oh yes sir I am."

"Come, take a seat here with me and the captain. And feel free to bring your friends here as well."

"Of course."

They get up and follow Blair back to the captain's table close by and take a seat.

"It's working Shawn." Phoenix whispered.

"I know but keep your cool. We don't want to get caught."

"I must say it's an honor to be making your acquaintance young lady. Did not expect someone like you to be on board this ship as a guest." Omen mentioned to Blair.

"Thank you, Mr. uh… uh." Blair had to play dumb so she doesn't reveal knowing of his name.

"Omen my dear. And who are your friends you have with you?"

"These are my friends Shawn and Phoenix the Blaziken and that's uh… Tina the Arbok."

Omen looks at them a little.

"Nice to meet you young man and lovely ladies." he tips his hood to them in respect.

"Oh it's very nice to meet Mr. Omen." Shawn gives his hand out as he shakes hands with him.

"So what brought you all here on a vacation on this cruise?"

"Well we all just wanted time to ourselves."

"And then I came in and messed up didn't I?"

"Well yes to tell you the truth."

Omen sipped more of his drink with his straw through his gas mask before setting the glass back down.

"It is okay to speak the truth. I know I have messed everyone's plans on a peaceful cruise to the Legendary Islands up. But do understand this is nothing personal between anyone on this ship. So when I do apologize for my actions. I really am sorry for ruining the time you all rightfully needed to yourselves."

"Well uh… thank you."

Omen nods to them.

"Oh and Mrs. Blair. Thank you for taking a photo and signing it for Jack's daughter yesterday. You've really made a little girl happy and proud of her father. There's an old saying I know. If you treat all your men like they were your beloved sons they will follow you beyond hell and back. Jack along with everyone under my command are like family to me, and their families are like family to me as well. So thank you for helping Jack out mrs. Blair. His daughter rachel will be very, very happy."

"Well I'm glad to make someones day."

"You've done more then made his day young lady. You've helped a young child's dream come true and helped a father make his little' girl's dream come true as well. To them that is more than just making someone's day."

"I'm MMA fighter and a Bar bouncer."

"Yes but you are also a veteran who served her country proudly and fought alongside your beloved husband in a sexiest world. You helped showed that females are just as capable of enduring the hell is that most men would crack from. And you helped pave the way for women's fighting championships and you are a well respected fighter in what most people consider a sport for men. I think you've accomplished a lot more than you think young lady. Your parents should be proud to have a daughter like you and I know your twins are already proud of their mother."

(Gasps) "He knows." Blair begins tear as she looked away thinking of what he can do to her family.

"Don't be upset dear child. I know these things because I need to know them for any possible situation. But I'm not trying to scare you but let you know how much you mean to others. Which I why I thank you for the that small thing you did for jack."

Blair couldn't stand the thought of her children in harm's way as she picked up a knife and stabbed him right in the throat. Shawn tries to stop her but it was too late before she was gunned down. She comes back and realizes it was all in her head.

"I imagine you must be beyond angry but also scared with me knowing that I know about your family. I understand your fear. Ever since you were forced to mercy kill Logan on Kelly and Ellah's first birthday it must have been a true witnessing of hell for you. No one should ever have to experience that."

"No. No parent should go through that. Are you parent?"

Omen looks at his hands.

"No. No I am not. But I know people who are. People who have suffered similar hells like you have. People who you've helped give hope for."

Omen gets up from his seat.

"My apologies, I believe I've overstated my welcome for tonight. Please enjoy the rest of the night and week."

Omen walks off without anymore word. When he left the heavy security calmed down and everything resumed back to normal. Blair continues to fear the worse as Phoenix hugs her but she knows it won't make Blair feel better as Shawn's other friends heard as well.

"So how did it go? Learn anything from the big cheese himself?" Lex asked.

"He said he's not doing this to threaten us but for something else. Nothing much from there."

(crying and scared) "Who the hell is this person? He knows about my parents, my babies, he even knew about how I had to kill Logan because I couldn't stand to see him suffer anymore."

"I know he has no right to be in people's business like that. I can't imagine what he would by to my Zeya and my baby Abby." Phoenix soothed to her as she worries.

"Hold on. I think I heard him talk to that Thomas guy who's like one of his higher ups. He said that the government sent a rescue team and that they're in the engines room on the ship. If we're lucky we can help them out and maybe they can helps us take the ship back." Luke suggested.

"What good will that do? These guy's will just kill them anyways."

"You got any better solutions Shawn because we just had a talk with Omen himself and we still don't know how the hell we're going to get out of this and we only have two days left."

"Alright we'll see what happens. I just hope Glukhov comes and gets us soon."

"Alright let's all head to the engine's room and see if these rescue team guys will help."

As everyone leave the restaurant as they headed lower and deeper into the ship they find the engine room. They sneak around and take cover in a room.

"I'm going to up ahead. You guys stay here, I'll be right back."

Everyone nods as Shawn moves closer up front. Shawn sneaks around the corridor and into a room. He hears noises of people being attacked. Gunfire and screaming is heard. He goes into the next corridor and meets a gruesome scene. The corridor is filled with slaughtered rescue team soldiers. There is blood everywhere, on the floors, walls, and even on the ceiling. Shawn then sees a Rescue team soldier stumble out from behind a corner. He is bleeding profusely.

It's... it's a ghost! Uuuugh!

The guard falls to the ground. Shawn rounds the corner and heard more gunfire. He then sees a Rescue Team Soldier being held up in the air by some invisible figure. It is a ninja of some sort. He slices the Rescue Team Soldier back and then goes inside a door that leads to where the group was, taking no notice of Shawn. Shawn follows him.

Shawn sees the ninja has cornered Phoenix who is backing away into a corner with Lex, Kia, Luke, Geena, and Blair knocked out cold. The ninja turns off the stealth and reveals himself to be a Greninja in some sort of in a high-tech exoskeleton. He jabs his sword right next to Phoenix's ear.

"Where is my friend, Phoenix?"

Shawn enters and fires a shot at the ninja. Quickly the ninja whirls around and slices the bullet cleanly in half. The ninja turns around slowly to face Shawn.

"Shawn!" the ninja said slowly.

"What?"

"I've been waiting for you, Shawn."

"Who are you?"

"Neither enemy nor friend. I am back from a world where such words are meaningless. But the Master calls me, Predator. I've removed all obstacles. Now you and I will battle to the death."

"What do you want?"

"I've waited a long time for this day. Now I want to enjoy the moment. I've come from another world to do battle with you. A fight to the death with you. Only in that can my soul find respite. I will kill you or you will kill me... it makes no difference. Now make me feel it. Make me feel alive again." the Greninja known as Predator answered.

Predator brandishes his sword at Shawn and they battle. After fighting for a while they pause. Predator is kneeling on the ground and convulses.

"Eeeeeyaaaaaah! The... the mediciiiiine!"

Predator falls to the ground at Shawn's feet and begins to bang his head on the ground.

"What's happening?"

"...I...I... I'm losing myself...Waaaaaaaaaaahhhh!"

Predator tries to run off but is soon knocked out by a punch in the face by Blair who finally woke up.

"Blair, what happened?"

"We were waiting on you just like you told us and this ninja cyborg or whatever the hell he is pops out of nowhere and kicks all our asses like we were nothing. How does he know you and Phoenix?"

"Remember Omen said he has eyes and ears on everyone."

"Yeah but he was talking like he knew you both personally."

"Well me nor Phoenix don't know anything about him."

"Well what do we do with him?" Luke walked up to the knocked out Predator and taped his foot on his side to see if he's still knocked out.

"Bring him with us, maybe we can get some information out of him when he wakes up."

"Why do I have a bad feeling about that plan." Lex picked the Greninja up and carried him over his shoulder.

"You have a bad feeling about everything Lex." Luke jocked.

"Yeah but I seriously have a bad feeling about this."

"Let's just get back to our room and tie this psycho up and good before he wakes up or his buddies come looking for him."

The group quickly and quietly moved from the engine room back to Shawn and Phoenix's room with the Greninja. As they brought the Greninja back they sat him on the ground. Not sure what to do with him.

"You do know that once he wakes up he's going to be more pissed drunk madder than a beedrill right?"

"Well, we got to restrain him somehow?"

"With what the dude is a cyborg Greninja. How do you restrain that?"

Shawn notices some kind of device Predator has with him. He picks it up to see they're some form of special plasma cuffs or something.

"By using his own stuff against him."

Shawn places the restraints on the Greninja and has him hidden in the bathroom.

"That oughta keep him quiet. I don't know about you guys but I am beat." Luke tossed his soldier helmet to the side and plops right on the bed. As everyone was getting ready for bed, Phoenix notices Blair is still shaking and crying in fear. So much she was having trouble dialing her family's phone number as Phoenix places her hand on her hands tightening it as she hugged her.

"I know we'll get through this. All of us."

(scared) "He knew. He knew everything. And he knows about my family. He even knew about Logan. From his background to exactly how he died. Phoenix I'm scared, I haven't been this scared since Logan's condition."

"I know. I'm scared too. He knows everything about me and my family."

Blair tried dialing the number again but couldn't do it. She handed the phone to Phoenix.

"Can you call my family for me please. I can...can't seem to hold the phone straight to dial the numbers."

"Of course."

Phoenix takes the phone as she dials in the number and phone begins ringing as she hands it back to Blair.

(scared) "Hi daddy it's me. Can I please speak to Kelly and Ellah."

She waits for a moment. She soon heard something and jumped from her seat in excitement.

"Hey you two how are you, having fun at grandma and grandpa's? I'm so sorry I haven't gotten home yet I know I said I was going to be home on sunday but well they wanted me to stay here a little longer. I promise to get back as soon as I can. I love you both so very much. Let me speak with grandpa real quick."

She waits another moment.

(scared) "Hi daddy it's me again. I...Don't know what to do anymore. We spied on Omen himself tonight. He actually requested me to sit with him and the captain because I had a special seat. And…"

Blair's whole body shook as she tried to hold back from crying.

(scared) "He knew...he knew about everything. He knew about Logan…"

Blair starts crying as she tried sitting back down. Phoenix and Shawn sit next to her as she hugs Blair and Shawn's hand was on her shoulder.

(over the phone) "Angel listen carefully. I know you're upset and I know it had to be something like that to make you this upset, because you don't ever break like this much. I don't know how this bastards knows everything but you can't let him get to your head like that. Please sweetheart we need you to stay cool and collected like you've always have. Now the twins are still beside me and they're a little concern on why their mother is a little upset and you know I can't tell them why. So count to four inhale, count to four exhale. And think about them while you do that. That's what I did whenever I had to face what you're going through right now."

Blair did as her father instructed and started feeling better.

(over the phone) "Sounds like you're feeling better. I have to go tuck the twins in for the night. remember my old trick and keep doing what you're doing. You and your friends are gonna get through that. I promise."

"Thank you daddy for everything. I love you. Kiss the twins on the heads for me goodnight. Bye."

Blair hangs up and looks towards Shawn and Phoenix.

"Aren't you two going to check on your kids as well?"

"We did while you were talking to your dad. Blair, we know you're scared for your twins. I'm scared too because that Greninja knows me too know. I wonder if he even knows my family personally but I'll never know until he wakes up."

Blair sighs. "I think I need to lay down. Wake me when that Greninja wakes up."

Blair gets up and lays down in the bed.

"Alright Blair. We'll wake you up then."

As Blair slept away for the night as Shawn and Phoenix kept watch on the Greninja for the rest of the night.


Thursday…

The next day…

As the morning sun rises as the cyborg Greninja begins to wake he realizes he was in restraints as he struggles a bit.

"Don't bother struggling."

Predator looks up to see Shawn in front of him.

"Tell us everything you know about what's going on."

Predator does not respond as Blair approaches him.

"Talk damn you!" Shawn hits the Predator in the face but without his faceplate. Predator does not respond and does not flinch when Shawn hits him in the face.

"Let me try." Phoenix takes his place as punches him harder with her strength. Predator still does not say a word and didn't flinch even when Phoenix punched him.

"He's not reacting. What do we do?" Phoenix asks.

"There's gotta be something that'll make him talk."

"You are wasting your time Shawn. I am only the master's top assassin but I shut myself from his plans. My plans are either for me to kill you or you kill me. It makes no difference the result."

"I'm not going to kill you just yet until you tell me what we need to know."

"I serve the master but I do so without question or know why he asks me to do so or care. My purpose is to do battle with you! That is my only and true goal and purpose. It is the only thing I obsess on. As for what my master's plans are I do not know or want to know. I do what he tells me without questions and without knowledge. You on the other hand are my only desire and focus. To fight you and either kill or be killed by you."

"Why do you want to kill to me? Why?" Shawn asks without hesitation

"I do not know why, its something I've only dedicated all my existence for. I do not have a reason or know a reason. I just have to."

"Everything in life isn't about killing you know. Sure there's death but killing isn't the way of life."

"My life isnt about killing others. it is about either bringing death or finding death with Shawn and only Shawn and Phoenix. That is all and only all."

"Ok we're not getting anywhere with this guy." Luke sighed.

"Okay but still why? What do you want with us? We don't even know you."

"I don't even know you two either. All I know is I must either kill you or find death from you two. Only then will I be at peace."

"Shawn I don't know why we're even talking to this guy because I don't even think he even knows the difference between jack and squad up his own ass end." Lex mentioned tired from getting nowhere.

(Sighs) "And if you do kill us what peace will it bring?"

"I do not know, all I know is either I kill you or you kill me I will find peace."

"Shawn, let's move on this guy doesn't know anything about what's going on, we're just wasting time with him."

(Groans) "Fine, what if I kill you now? Then will it bring peace or whatever the hell it is?"

"No, you would just give me a coward's death. If you were to kill me, it would have to be in battle."

"Oh for the love of fuck!" Said Luke with an annoyed expression

Shawn hears a phone ring.

"I'm going to take this, Lex, keep an eye on this guy. Feel free to rough him up if he tries any ninja stuff."

Shawn, Phoenix, and Luke exits as Lex cracks his knuckles with a smirk. Shawn walks into his room and answers.

"Hello?"

(Over the Phone) "Shawn this is Glukhov."

"Glukhov?"

(Over the Phone) "Listen I can't talk long but you need to listen to me carefully. I won't be able to arrive until tomorrow night and even then I don't know if I will be able to make it to you. However I do know I will have a better chance but you and your friends need to do somethings for me if I'm going to have even the slightest chance of getting you all out of there alive."

"Okay. What do you want us to do? I'm going to write this down."

Shawn grabs a piece of paper and pen and was ready to listen to Glukhov's requests.

"Okay, I'm ready."

(Over the phone) "Alright, if I know this situation like in the past. Legion has a special device that they use to radar enemies on their own technology equipment miles and miles before they even comes close to the ship. You'll need to damage the device which will take even their skilled engineer a week to fix. And I only need a day to get there. So all you need to do is find the location of this device and destroy it that's all."

"That's all?" Shawn asks to be sure

(Over the phone) "It's easier said then done. It will be the most secured guarded area on that area."

"Okay, I'll disguise myself and destroy it."

(Over phone) "Shawn. Even if you do this I still can't guarantee anything. The only thing this will do is increases the chances by only a little. That's all."

"I'll do anything to see Abby and Zeya again."

(Over the phone) "I know but Shawn, please try to understand I'll do everything I can and more to get you to see your daughters again but I can't guarantee anything. I've dealt with this Legion guys on more than one occasion and each time I almost always died from their encounters, each one closer than the last. And Omen, I cannot imagine a more dangerous opponent that scares me more then him."

"I can take him and his men on anytime."

(Over the phone) "No...you can't. Not like him, not him."

Shawn hangs up as he was tired of listening to Glukov's downers as he returned to the rest of the group.

"Anything?" Phoenix asked.

"Glukhov called us he said he'll be here tomorrow but he won't stand a chance unless we locate and destroy some kind of sensor device."

"Finally were getting somewhere." As Luke bursts out with relief

"Alright then. Shawn get in disguise we're going to find that device tonight. Only then your friend will help us."

"We have to find it tonight guys if Glukhov is going to help us."

"So what do we do?"

"We split up into groups of two and look around the entire ship for the device what ever the hell it's going to be." Shawn stated before he gets a call from the mic from the soldier disguise. He answers real quick and gets dressed.

"Guys I will be right back, they want Mike real quick to meet up with Hack about something. When I get back we'll split up and find and get rid of the device tonight. I'll see if I can sneak some info on what it looks like from Hack."

"Alright we'll be here just watch your back Shawn." Blair said.

"I have been so far."

Shawn quickly made his way to the security room where he saw Hack laying back in the chair observing everything going on in the ship.

"You needed me Hack?"

"Yeah Mike we got ourselves a bit of a Problem. Predator hasn't returned back from his post and the boss is concerned. We got reason to believe he's going to go after Shawn and Phoenix because of what the damn Syndicate did to him."

"The Syndicate? That big underground gang in Lumiose City?"

"Yeah, several years ago Predator wasn't predator. He was a Greninja named Zayakusa. Badass ninja and everything but he lived a quiet life. I think there's not much to dig up on his file. Had a sexy and cute mate Arceus rest her soul and they're living fine. Then the Syndicate came and well they made him witness hell. Killed his mate, crippled him very, very badly, had him go through barbaric torturous cybernetic procedures. And if that wasn't bad enough they forced him through non stop hours of hypnotic drugs and shit and fully fucked his mind to think he has to kill or be killed by Shawn and Phoenix. The Syndicate knew Shawn was a threat so they fucked Zayakusa up and turned him into their own little anti Shawn and Phoenix weapon as a last resort if anything was to happen."

(Shawn thinking) "They were gonna send a cyber greninja after us? Holy shit."

"Yeah one day the Syndicate picked a fight with us and well. Let's just say they soon learned we are some very mean sons of bitches to deal with. The boss found Zayakusa in the fucked up state he was in and we did what we could to try and help. However, I don't think you fix what the syndicate did that poor bastard. Now we just call him Predator and he's one of our top operatives. He was sent on a small mission last night but he hasn;t come back. Boss thinks that because Shawn and Phoenix are on the cruise ship it may have set off the trigger the Syndicate programed into his brain and now he's probably going to be going after them full force."

(Shawn thinking) "It makes sense why he knew me personally."

"And you know what the sad part of all of this is Mike?" Hack asked as he took a sip of beer.

"What Hack?"

"Old Predator when he was Zayakusa had at least one egg with his mate before the Syndicate came and destroyed their lives. Zayakusa never knew about the ordeal nor did he know his mate was expecting. When she died and they took him to turn him into the cyborg that he is now the Syndicate just left that poor little egg to fend for itself. That egg just so happens to be Shawn's step daughter Zeya."

(Shawn thinking) "So that means that's his daughter."

"Anyrate Mike, boss wants you to go pay a visit to Shawn and Phoenix and ask them if they have seen anything strange lately."

"Uh sure."

"Oh one more thing."

Hack taps a few buttons on his wrist computer.

"Yes?"

"When you get the chance hand this flash drive over to Shawn. It's a copy of his friend Nero's son Hyro's private file. And it just so happens to have countless images of greninja pornography. That kid's got a tiny little crush on Zeya and I think Shawn is gonna wanna know." Hack smirked and hands the file to Shawn.

"Yeah, I'm sure he does."

"Alright when you finish head over to the luxury section room of the ship. I need you and couple of others to guard my special little tech scanner device."

"Scanner you say? Refresh my memory. Where is it again?"

"I just told you Mike it's in the Luxury section ship where all the rich people who are passengers at. The private party room where they have their private personal stuff is where we are keeping my tech scanner. This item is one of the only things that's let's us know when we got company coming so if that thing gets damaged it will take me a month to repair it and we'll be screwed. Understand?"

"Just checking."

"Good, now remember to hand that flash drive to Shawn after you ask him the questions. I pretty sure he's the type of guy who would want to know who's got that kind of a serious crush on his daughter."

"Yes, I'm sure he does."

Shawn leaves the room and walks back to his room with the rest of the gang.

"Well Shawn?" Blair asks

"Okay Hack told me the scanner is in the luxury part of the ship so all we have to do is go out there and find the scanner from there. When you find it tell me and I'll come over."

"Finally we're getting somewhere from all of this." Lex cheered.

"What else did you find out?" Luke asked. "And what's with the flash drive in your hands?"

"It's something about Hyro."

"What about him?" Phoenix asks

Shawn whispers to Phoenix so the others don't hear as she was shocked to hear it.

"You mean in that flash drive?"

"Yep."

"What? What's on that flash drive?" Geena asks.

"Nothing. It's nothing." Shawn hides it away as he puts it in his back pocket without them knowing.

"Oh and Phoenix, we need to talk. Privately. I just found out some, well its easier if you listened."

"Oh ok…"

Shawn and Phoenix stepped outside of the room.

"What is it Shawn?"

"Phoenix, I just found out more about that Greninja and your gonna need to hear it,"

"Okay Shawn. I'm listening."

"Okay. That Greninja we have tied up isn't really who he is. The Syndicate that gang I saved you from were doing some kind of experiments to him for some cyber initiative program and used as a last resort to kill us both if I came to save you. And here's the biggest shocker. He's Zeya's real father."

"What?!"

"Sssh! Yes I know. She wasn't abandoned on purpose she was abandoned because he was taken away."

"So you mean we have Zeya's father tied up in there?"

"Yes I'm afraid so."

"I can't believe that's her father under that metal."

"Yes, I know. Come on let's get back to the other's."

"What are we going to do. Or worst, what are we going to tell Zeya?"

"I don't know how to explain either but we'll deal with that later."

"Should we ask him about anything. Like should we ask him does he know Zeya?"

"Yes, we'll talk to him about Zeya."

"Shawn, Zeya's my daughter, I need to know what he could know now please." Phoenix asks as tears were forming in her eyes.

"Alright relax. We'll ask him, okay? Were going to find out how he knows about Zeya."

"Okay."

Phoenix wipes her eyes as they both returned to interrogate the cyber greninja.

"Listen to me uh… what's your name?"

"The master calls me Predator. That is my only name." Predator answered.

"Okay… uh… Predator. How do you know about Zeya?"

Predator looks at the two.

"Who the hell is Zeya?"

Shawn pushes Phoenix back to the corner to talk to her again whispering

(Whispering) "All the experimenting must have messed with his head. He doesn't know a thing about her nor can he remember a thing about her."

"I know nothing of this Zeya you speak of. I only know that I must kill you two or be killed by you two that is all." Predator answered.

Luke was getting a bit annoyed hearing him saying that last part over again.

"Don't you have anything else to say other than that?"

"Greninja."

"What?"

"In the past when Pokemon were animals we spoke of our names in language. I just said "Go Fuck Yourself," in the ancient Pokemon way."

"Get to the point, Predator."

"What point is there? I am nothing but a weapon to be used. And like any weapon I know nothing that would do any of you good."

"That goes without saying." Blair commented.

"Guys let's forget this robotic nut job and just go find that damn scanner so we can kick these guys asses." Lex suggested.

"Okay can you at least tell me where the scanner device is specifically?"

"Like I said. I am but a weapon and like any weapon I know nothing that would benefit you." Predator answered.

(Sighs) "Fuck this guy. Let's go look for it ourselves."

"Alright, me, Phoenix, Luke, and Lex will split up into two groups of two. Geena, you, Kia, and Blair stay here and keep an eye on our cyborg friend here and make sure he doesn't do any ninja tricks."

Blair smirked and popped her knuckles.

"Can do."

Shawn, Lex, Luke, and Phoenix exited the room and headed towards the luxury section of the ship. There they split up into groups of two with Phoenix going with Shawn. They walk for hours upon hours but couldn't find anything. Eventually it was night time already.

"Damn we've searching all day and still nothing."

They suddenly start hearing some strange music.

"Hey Shawn, what's that?"

"Music. Someone could be around here let's go check it out."

They follow the source of the music until it stops.

"That's strange. There's no guards." Phoenix pointed out.

"What happened to the music? Shawn asked.

"I'll keep a look out. Make sure you're ready, okay?

Shawn and Phoenix reach the entrance to the Luxury room.

"My head! ...Ooh. It hurts!

Phoenix kneels on the floor clutching her head.

"What's wrong?

"Don't come here, Shawn!

They see views of the room, as if somebody is waiting for them.

"Are you okay? What happened?"

Phoenix stands up. When she speaks her voice sounds different.

"I'm fine. Let's go."

Phoenix walks to the door of the room. They go into the Luxury room. Phoenix begins to jerk around.

"Ah!"

She points her handgun at Shawn. She begins to walk towards him, slowly. When she speaks her voice sounds strange.

"Shawn... do you... like me?"

"What the!?"

"Do you like me? Hold me, Shawn."

"What's wrong?"

"Hurry... hurry! Make love to me! Shawn, I want you!"

Shawn sees Shade behind Phoenix. He is controlling her. Shawn knocks her out easily.

"Useless woman." Shade said.

Shawn ignores Shade and checks on Phoenix, to make sure she isn't hurt. Shade appears from nowhere and floats in the air. Shawn is a bit surprised by this, he steps backwards.

"What the hell did you do to her?"

"Did you really think you could fool me Shawn. For two thousands years I have existed and seen all this world has shown in that time. What makes you think you could fool someone like that?"

"Look I know you weren't being fooled I knew that since I saw you."

"And I take it you're here to destroy our Tech scanner? Since the master is currently busy at the moment and we have our hands full for what you've done with Predator. I have personally decided to see to it that I stop you myself."

"Yes you're correct. I'm here to destroy the scanner."

"Then brace yourself for a witnessing of hell! Have at thee!"

"Have at thee? Really?"

Shawn draws his gun as he takes cover and begins to fire at a corner while Shade takes cover from the bullets ricocheting the wall. Shade begins to develop purple orbs in his hand and throws it at Shawn as it bursts every time he hits it at the wall. The explosion bursts from the orbs woke up Phoenix as her vision was blurry but clearing as she sees Shawn shooting and Shade throwing orbs. Phoenix gets up as she throws her fireball interfering with Shades orb.

"Nobody controls me like that."

"Impudent child, what are you compared to me?" Shade's eyes glow red as he throws a shadow ball at Phoenix. She dodges his attack as she does a blaze kick sending a wave of fire straight at him. Shade merely summons an energy barrier around him and slowly glides to Phoenix.

"I have clashed with even Palkia, Dialga, and Giratina themselves. I have stared into the face Arceus and did not flinch. I brought nightmares to the guardian Pokemon of these lands and made even Lugia and Ho-Oh fear at my presence. For two thousand years I was the nightmare that all feared in their sleep. So what makes you and your husband anything special compared to the likes of me?"

"You really want to know why? Because it's something me and husband had for so long. He is the sword and I'm the shield. We protect each other whatever danger throws at us no matter what happens. We've been blessed by Arceus and the legends of the islands themselves. That is why we have the Flames of Heart!"

Shade only sighed and used telekinesis to grab Phoenix by the throat and start choking her.

"Spoken no different than all the other fools before you. It will be your end even if you somehow succeed against me. For not even Arceus can stop us. No one is going to stop us now. Not after we've come so far to save her life."

Phoenix's flames inside her eyes begin to burst into flames like the human torch as her body was beginning to glow golden fire. Shawn looks over and sees Phoenix changing as he's never seen it before in his life.

"Hmmm...interesting. That went out of style a thousand years ago."

"Well get used to it because it's coming back right in your face!"

Phoenix throws a fireball in his face burning his eyes a little bit letting her go.

"Oh yes I remember what an annoying pain in the ass it was to deal with."

"Shawn, use the stone."

"What stone?"

Shawn activates the fire stone as her body changes again into her Mega-evolve as her body still glows in golden fire as she clenches her fist.

"Oh that stone. Why am I not surprised?"

"Hmph, that's what I expect from an old Pokemon like you."

"You seem to not realize the situation you are in or what you are really dealing with beyond me. You think yourself above me even with your love for husband, the mega stone, and the Flames of the Heart gift. Take my advice none of anything of that will serve you any good in the end. We will prevail it's only a matter of time. And when we're done we will come for you and your family. And do not think either you or them are safe from our wrath let alone mine. For I'll see your daughters in their dreams, just as I will see you both in your nightmares."

"You really talk too much." Shawn and Phoenix said at the same time.

"And you two really like to show off and test my patience too much. Now die."

Shade's body glows a purplish energy color as he lifted his hands and was forming a shadow ball twice as big. Phoenix forms a fireball in both of her hands and throws them at Shade as Shawn contribute by shooting at him. Shawn continues shooting at him as it deflects every bullet but Phoenix develops a huge fireball and throws it at him pushing him a little bit breaking his shield.

"Phoenix look. Your breaking his shield."

Phoenix takes notice of his shield breaking and continues throwing more at him cracking his shield. Shade becoming irritated by this, throws his large shadow ball at Phoenix which directly hits her with a powerful explosion. Before he could continue, his shield was already drained and shattered enough for Shawn to unleashes a series of bullets at him. Directly hitting him with a full magazine worth of bullets.

"I'm...possible…" Shade said slowly in shock and surprise.

Shade falls to the ground bleeding. Shawn rushes over to Phoenix who was completely drained and hurt from the explosive shadow ball.

"You okay, Phoenix?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"I'm sorry my master…" Shade said to himself in between breaths. His voice sounded deeply sad. "I've...failed you…"

Shawn approaches him with a gun aiming at his head.

"You will pay for this. I cannot die and mortal human weapons cannot kill me. This is but a setback that will cost us. But mock my words you will pay for this you deluded fools."

"Oh shut up already."

Shawn cocks his gun as he was ready to kill him but Shade's body slowly glows purple as he starts to vanish. Before Shawn could fire his gun Shade was already gone just like that.

"Dammit. He got away."

"What do we do now?" Phoenix asks

"The device is in this room. Let's destroy it and get out of here fast. And wait on Glukhov tomorrow night." Shawn Answered.

"Alright then."

Phoenix uses all of her strength and smashed the scanner in one punch and pulls her fist out.

"Well that's that. Now let's get back to the others."

The two made their way back to their room, meeting Luke and Lex on the way. They started getting ready for tomorrow for Glukhov's arrival if he does show up. They decided to go to bed early and rest up for what may be the most dangerous day of their lives tomorrow.

Friday…

The final day…

Shawn slowly awoke at the sound of the mic from the soldier uniform beating. Thinking quick he answered the mic as soon as possible.

"This is Mike."

(over mic) "Mike this Thomas. We got a serious problem. Meet us at the Luxury sections."

"Alright on my way."

Shawn hung up and started getting dressed in the soldier uniform real quick.

"Hey guys I need to see what they want. Stay in here until I come back and let me know if Glukhov calls ok."

"Okay Shawn. We'll wait for you."

Once Shawn was fully dressed he left towards the Luxury area where he and Phoenix destroyed the device and fought Shade. They found Omen with Thomas and Hack was trying to fix the reach scanner Phoenix destroyed.

"Can you fix it yes or no Hack?" Omen asked.

"Sure, just give me a lot of tools we don't have, a shit ton of beer, and a month or two. No I can't fix the damn thing in time. It'll take me a month or two."

"Sir the government's still haven't accepted our demands, we're going to have to make a decision tonight."

Omen sighs a little.

"First Predator disappears and now Shade is gone along with our tech device destroyed. Gentlemen we are officially vulnerable and in the strongest possibility as Hack would put it "Fucked."

"Damn right we're fucked if those government assholes send their people in, we won't be able to detect them until they've breached us."

"Never the less we proceed as plan. Hack I want you to try and repair the device as much as you can with what you have. Thomas I want you to take Drake and lead a search party for Predator and Shade."

"Yes sir." Thomas and hack answered.

Omen notices Shawn still disguised at Mike.

"Ah Mike, did not see you there, how are you this morning?"

"Just fine sir."

"Good, listen, I need to speak to you about something personal and private if that's ok with you."

"Um… of course sir."

"Thank you, I'll be waiting for you in the captain's quarters."

Omen walks off to the captain's quarters.

"Oh shit. I don't like this."

Shawn goes to the quarters and finds Omen waiting. He stood calmly looking out at the sea through the window with his arms crossed.

"You wanted to see me sir?"

Omen turns and looks at him.

"Ah yes Mike, thank you for coming. Please have a seat, relax."

Shawn takes a seat as Omen takes a seat at the captain's chair in front of him.

"Mike I don't know what to do now. Those bastard politicians still refuse to give in to our demands and I have until tonight to get what I desire otherwise I'll be forced to carry out my threat. I was really hoping and praying it didn't have to come down to this I tried to do everything I could prevent it."

"I wish it didn't have to end like this either, sir."

"Mike, remind me why you joined us in the first place. Why you sought me out."

"Well… um… it should say that in my profile."

"Profiles say many things, but I personally like to hear these reasons from the words of the people themselves."

"Sometimes I like to secrets sir even from friends even my family."

"Speaking of your family were you able to talk with your wife recently?"

"Yes, sir. My family was checking on me so you know if I was okay."

Omen chuckles a little.

"Must be wonderful to have such a family right Mike?"

"Yes sir. It's wonderful to have a family."

Omen suddenly hears his phone call.

"Excuse me real quick."

Omen answers it.

"Yes. Hello Nurse Joy how is everything? Yes. Yes. I see. Of course, let him know of the news you just told me. I understand. Thank you for calling. Bye."

Omen hangs up.

"Is something wrong sir?"

"Nothing. I was just getting a small update from our Nurse Joy back at our base."

"Anything sir?"

"Nothing to be serious about no. If you like Mike you can return to your post I think I need a moment to myself."

"Of course sir."

Shawn got up and heads towards the door.

"Oh Mike before you leave can I ask you one last questions please."

"Sure thing sir. What is it?"

Omen looks at Mike.

"Why did you get married in the first place?"

"I got married because I… uh… "

"Shawn do you think me deaf dumb blind and stupid? I've been playing this kind of game while your father was still in diapers. Mike was never married nor did he ever had a family so I've been knowing it was you this entire time. Just as I know you and your friends are responsible for Predator and Shade's disappearance, the destruction of our tech scanner. And that you've all have been spying on Aaron since day one and been hiding Geena and Luke all this time. under our own noses."

"Hm, I thought you would've broke it to me sooner or later."

"You be surprised young man. So now what to do with you since Glukhov is on his way. Yes we even been listening in to all your phone calls."

"Yeah he told me you were doing that."

"Me, young man I'm in my late fifties I can't understand jack shit from all this modern day technology. That's Hack's doing. He just tells me everything he finds and that's how I know all this stuff."

"Then why do you have to take my information?"

"Because my closest friend Ace has told me everything about you. How you and nero busted his drug operation and cost him billions. I knew the moment I found you were a passenger on this ship there was going to be trouble. Luckily for us. We've been preparing for you. Haven't we Aaron?"

Aaron appears behind Shawn and does a powerful punch to Shawn's face to send him flying across the room and knocks him out cold.

"Restrain him. I want to have a word with him later."

"What about friends in his room? Sir?"

"Have the restrained as well and lock them up in the cells. That old bastard Glukhov is going to be on his way tonight and I want everyone to be prepared."

"Yes sir."

Meanwhile, Phoenix and the others were waiting on Shawn but were growing increasingly worried when he wasn't coming back as he said he was.

"Maybe he had to go to take a piss or something. I don't know."

"He's two hours late." Phoenix stated in worry.

"He'll be fine, it's not that hard to fool these guys trust me."

They heard a knock on the door.

"Hey its me Shawn. I'm clear."

Phoenix opens the door and almost instantly a gas grenade is thrown right into their room which unleashes thick gas that clouds everyone's vision. Before they had anytime to reach the Legion soldiers shot them with tranqs to put them all to sleep. Thomas enters the room and sees Phoenix, Luke, Blair, Geena, Lex, and Kia asleep. He walks over to where Predator was at and gets his restraints off.

"This is Thomas, suspects have been restrained and Predator found. Proceeding to taking them to the holding cells." Thomas reported.

(over mic) "Rodger that Thomas you and Beta squad are clear over." Hack answered.

Drake enters the room and picks all the girls, Luke and Lex and carries them off to the holding cells. Very much later on that night Shawn awakens to find himself restrained and tied up in razor sharp barbed wire wrapped around him. He is still in the soldier uniform but even then he could feel his flesh being torn from every slight movement he makes. He is restrained in a chair with Omen sitting in front of him in a relaxed state.

"Sleep well young man?"

"No not really since I had barbed wire poking me like a cactus."

"I find barbed wire to be more effective than rope. More difficult to get out of and can't be easily cut by a knife. That and it keeps the prisoner from making many unnecessary movements."

"What do you want?"

Omen pulls out a piece a paper and looks at.

"Shawn Kaiser, born May 14th, 1990. Raised in an ordinary family not rich nor poor. When you were a kid your Pokemon was a riolu that felt like a brother to you. Your parents Cain Kaiser and Lucy Kaiser raised both of you. Your father was a undercover cop and you wanted to be just like him. After a few years when you grew up, you and the Lucario Nero became undercover cops with your father. Till it led to the drug bust which killed your father that ultimately lead to the chain of events that killed your mother but only you, Michael and Nero survived. Over the course of your life after that you busted my close Friend's Ace drug operation which caused him billions. After that you eventually met a Blaziken by the name of Phoenix who was abused by a trainer. You found love and that lead to Phoenix's kidnapping from the Syndicate gang. You rescue her and started a new family with your two step daughters Zeya the Greninja and infant human Abby and new friends along the way including your uncle figure Glukhov and Nero's new family with his mate Tera and son Hyro."

Omen sets the paper down and waits for Shawn's response.

"Why do have all of that? What does this prove?"

"It proves young man that you can be either a threat or an alley depending on the choices I'm about to have you make. I am within my rights to put a bullet in your head for what you did to not only Ace those years ago but for being a thorn on my side this entire week. Now maybe because of you, everyone on this ship could be doomed. However I am one for second chances and I do think from the information and skills displayed this week have caught my interest. Do you see where this is going Shawn? Or should I mention that your wife does like you in our uniform."

"I figured you were watching us."

"Young man, we've seen everything. And there was even a moment I had to… well, look away when Hack showed us that video of you and your wife getting it on in Mike's uniform. Which I'm not sure how to respond to that. But I will say I won't blame you two because it's nice to be young."

"Yeah probably going to be disappointed why I do fucking care."

"Honestly young man I could care less what you fucking care about. Now let's get started."

Omen pulls out a device and motioned for Shawn to noticed that he is covered in water and that he as a bucket of water on his feet. Not only that but this entire time he was strapped into an electric chair by barbed wire.

"My friend Johnny died from electrocution twenty years ago. I remember seeing it happen he was standing in water. Water young man is a conduit for electricity. And what is in our bodies? That is right, water. Now when I press this button, electricity will flow through your body carried by this water and it will cramp up and you will feel the most intense pain you have ever felt in your life. Which will result in you thrashing around like a mad lunatic which cause the bared wire wrapped all over you to tear you to shreds. If you do not want to feel this pain, which is very completely understandable, you need to answer my questions without hesitation. So...are you ready Shawn?"

"Why do you want to kill me? I don't even know you. I was only doing my job at the time but let me ask you this. Since you're about to kill me why are you doing this? Taking hostages of the ship. Why?"

Omen tosses the switch in his hand up and down and catches it perfectly. Each time when he catches it he almost presses the button which would make Shawn flinch.

"Young man you are not in the position to be asking me questions and even you were do you think I would share any of my secrets to anyone even if I have their fate in my hands. No I've seen and done that trick many, many times in the past. Your thinking you get me to talk and explain my plans so that when you somehow break free you'll know how to stop me. I've done that trick many times when I was your age so I know very well to tell no one not even a possible dead man. So you will get nothing from me."

"Come on you know everything about me, my family and friends. I must at least know something about you. It's only fair that you know about me."

Omen gets up from his seat and looks Shawn dead in the eyes with his red glowing hi tech goggles.

"If you want to know something about me. I'll start with saying I do not have the time for bullshit."

Omen presses the button to send electricity through Shawn's body. Making his squirm in agony which in return causes him to move violently in the barbwire that easily cuts Shawn up and makes him bleed badly. Omen turns the chair off and let's Shawn rest.

"Now we're even. So let's get onto business. In case you haven't figured out I would like for you to join me. You have wonderful sets of skills that can make you a nightmare for most people. You helped get rid of the Syndicate who were a thorn even to us. And we could accomplish many things with you. So have I caught your interest?"

"What the fuck is this? Batman? You want me to strike fear into my enemies?"

"No I don't need you running around with a cosplay costume talking like you lost your voice. I would really like for you to join me. You've proven yourself more than capable with the requirements I look for in men. And I would hate to have to kill you and throw away such wonderful talent in a fine young man like yourself. And above all, by joining us you become a member of our family and we would protect you and your family and friends from all possible threats from the Syndicate to the teams themselves that we are at war with. Most young men I see today are absolute fools, so don't be an absolute fool Shawn. Join us."

"Why join an army that's looking for domination?"

"We're not looking for domination we are simply tired of how the world has allowed itself to become the hell hole it is. Mostly with the teams feeling like they can be Arceus and do and get away with everything while the government's control our lives and the police and military are too corrupt or cowards to do a thing about it. Now I really do not have much time Shawn so I really, really want an answer right now."

"So you're an Anarchist?"

"Shawn, an answer now."

"Not until you answer me."

"Answer you what, more about my plans? I told you I've seen that trick before and it will not save you or do you any good."

"Okay. You want my answer? (Spits in the face of his gas mask) That's my answer."

Omen looks at Shawn a little, grabs a napkin and wipes the spit off his mask. After which he presses the button to turn the chair on again to make Shawn squirm in pain from the electricity which in turns causes the barbed wire to continuously tear and cut his body badly. After a minute of this Omen stops the button.

"Young man I am not asking or requesting I am begging for your life and your family and friends lives. Because now you've all entered something you'll never get away from. Do you understand me Shawn? If you do not take my offer you and everyone you love and hold dear will not survive it without our help."

"You really like to talk don't ya. Just like that Darkrai."

"Yes we've both had many years of practice in our speeches and we are both very well experience. Now if you're trying to push my buttons with Shade don't bother. You cannot kill Shade and you did not kill him last night he only returned to his realm to recover from ass beating you and your wife gave him. Now I'm only going to ask you one last time. If you really, truly care about your family and your friends you will join us and we will keep all safe and I won't have to kill you here and I can get Ace off your back. Because he knows you're here and he's got a very serious score to settle with you. From the way I see it, without us, you will not survive a week. So for the last time, will you join us?"

"Sorry but I don't take offers from people who threaten my family and friends."

"I'm not threatening them I'm trying to save them and you. Now what is going to be Shawn, my time is up?"

(Sighs) "No."

Omen sighs and looks at the remote in his hands. He sets down on a table and walks up to Shawn.

"And here I thought I could try and convince an absolute foolish young man to save his family and friends. I guess I was wrong."

"Hey, it's what makes me human."

Omen walks away as Aaron enters.

"Keep an eye on him until I get back dealing with Glukhov, if he makes a move you are free to terminate Aaron."

"Yes sir."

Omen exits.

Meanwhile, Phoenix awoke in a holding cell along with her friends and several others. Blair is the first to wake amongst others as she sees was cuffed.

"Ugh. Damn that hurt. Hey wake up. Guys?!"

Phoenix wakes up second a bit dizzy but her vision begins to clear as others begin to wake up.

"Blair?"

"Phoenix, thanks Arceus you're okay. Lex?! Kia?! Luke?! Geena, are you guy's okay?"

'Yeah were fine dizzy but fine."

"What the hell happened. We heard Shawn's voice and now we're in a holding cell?" Luke mentioned.

"How the hell did they find out. Geena I thought you said you took care of the hidden cameras." Lex asked.

"I did I swear I did I don't know how they did this?" Geena answered.

"Guys what do we do?" Kia asked in panic.

"Simple, you stay where you're at and don't try any funny things." the group saw Drake watching them closely.

"Oh great, the scary tall guy of the group."

"I'm just a charizard, nothing special. We had you all figured out since day one. And we knew Luke and Shawn would trades places along with Blair because we know all know each other too well to know if someone is in disguise as one of us."

The group look at each other.

"Well ain't that a bitch." Blair stated.

"Where's Shawn?" Phoenix asked.

"Don't know and really don't care. Either way master has his life in his hands now. So its up to the master if he lives or dies now."

"You son of a bitch!" Phoenix struggles by the chains urging to kill him badly.

"Ma'am it's nothing personal. But you should've pissed off when you all the chance. So what happens to Shawn is his own damn fault just as it's all your own damn faults."

Drake gets up and walks away.

(Struggling) "Where the hell do you think your going? Come back you fucking bitch!"

"Phoenix calm down." Blair tried to reason with her.

"Calm down? You're not the one that has a husband's live at stake. (Sniffles) If he dies I don't know what I do without him." (Breaks into tearing and crying softly)

Phoenix begins to cry softly as tears were dripping from her eyes as the tear drops onto the floor. Blair tries to help her just as Phoenix did the same for her.

"Phoenix, I know how that felt when I lost Logan but you and Shawn showed me how to be strong and gave me confidence again. Don't lose hope now. We've only come so far. And you haven't lost Shawn yet, there's still a chance that he maybe alive."

"Thank you, Blair. I appreciate that."

"Now I've got something to get these cuffs off."

"You mean these?" Drake came back holding a set of keys and other stuff.

"How the hell did you?"

"Trust me, we're very used to taking all precautions. Now my suggestion to you guys is for you to lay back and relax and maybe just maybe they'll bring Shawn back for you to share the cell with. Also we will be leaving tonight so you wont have to deal with us for much longer than you've already have."

Drake took a seat and sat quietly to watch their every move. With him were a few Legion soldiers that helped out.

Meanwhile back in Lumiose City back at Glukhov's workplace Nero came by to look for him. Nero enters the warehouse but sees him nowhere and begins to call him out.

"Glukhov? Glukhov!"

He continues searching the warehouse until he finds a number pad as he was very curious about it.

"Glukhov, what are you hiding from us?"

As he pressed random buttons as he got it on his first try without thinking as it unlocks a small passageway he walks through. As he reaches the end he sees a whole system of military grade work going on around him. A mix of Pokemon and humans working on computers along with military tanks, humvees, armor and weapons on racks. Nero was shocked to see Glukhov have all of this in his basement. He was even more shocked to see Clara working at the desk.

"Clara?"

"Nero?"

(Loudspeaker) "Intruder at the entrance!"

As soldiers come in aiming at Nero as he raises his hands but Clara stops before they shoot him.

"Put your weapons down! He's a friend."

"Clara? What the hell?"

"Put them down!"

Soldiers stands down as they walk off and Clara approaches him

"Nero, what are you doing here?"

"I was wondering the same thing for you."

"Glukhov let me join because he told me about this when he was drunk."

"How did you convince him?"

"Oh I'm sure you know."

"Figures but anyways. What is this place?"

"This is Oracle Headquarters. Being supported by U.S. and Russia. These guys are called if the U.S. or Russian forces can't deal with bad situations that's when there they'll be. I just work on communication to the team to give updates and whatnot."

"So where is he now?"

"He's prepping for a mission to save our friends."

"Okay then. I'm staying here until it happens."

"Okay. If you say so."

Meanwhile in another warehouse near the ocean close to where the cruise ship is staying at. Glukhov puts on tactical gear vest that have different pockets of five to ten holster pockets for his extended mags with two M67 grenades and two AN M18 smoke grenades, with shoulder and knee pads with custom tactical mask painted like Deathstroke with gun holsters wrapped around his leg as he loads his premium grade 1911 pistol, his semi-auto carbine AR-15 with a grip and scope, with a military Gerber Mark II knife. Next the Scyther named Swiftstreak was sharpening his blades in black armor padded suit like Snake eyes with a V-shaped visor motorcycle helmet, A Chesnaught named Silesius in his military bulky armor with carrying Handheld General Dynamics GAU-19/A with fully customized Mossberg 590 combat shotgun with a dot scope, light mount and handle grip and a Sceptile named Yin Lee with exposed more forearm vest just like Glukhov but without a mask with a Beretta ARX-100 with a standard iron sight and the same pistol like Glukhov. And finally a sexy Luxray named Aurora in a black leather suit with a baton, Gepard GM6 Lynx sniper rifle and a standard SIG-Sauer MPX.

"Is everyone loaded?"

(All) "Yes sir."

"Al right move out."

Glukhov and the team begin to move to the dropship as they all jumped in and takes off to the ocean. As they reached the ocean Glukhov gets call from Clara as he answers.

"Go ahead, honey."

"Glukhov, I know you said not to let anyone else in but ehhh…"

"Who did you let in?"

(Nero's voice) "Hey Glukhov. Nice of you to leave without me."

"Nero? How did you get in?"

"I found a keypad on the wall behind the shelf. Not the best hiding spot."

"Ugh. I deal with you when I get back. Listen you need to stay there with Shawn's family and yours understand. That's why I didn't bring you along I thought I told you that already!"

(over phone) "I get that now. Just bring them home, okay?"

"I'll try." (Hangs up) "I do all and more but beyond that I just don't know…"

Meanwhile back with Shawn. He cringed heavily from all the agonizing pain he was feeling from the after effect of being electrocuted while his body was being cut badly by razor sharp barb wire. He looked up to see Aaron just standing there staring at him with a death glare.

"Why are you doing all of this? What's in it for you?

Aaron does not say a word.

"Answer me damn you!"

Aaron does not respond. He just continues to stare at Shawn with a death glare.

"So you're just gonna keep staring at me like Batman?"

Aaron does not respond.

"Yeah that figures. Not a damn word like the Cyber Greninja."

Aaron still does not respond.

"I don't get it, for a Lucario you've got to be the most exact opposite of one I've ever met. Lucarios are suppose to be loyal and honorable and you don't have any of that…"

" . I am not some common thug that can be distracted by your petty bullshit. You are nothing to me. And your pathetic attempts to play mind games with me and push my buttons amount to less than nothing. So please, stop embarrassing yourself."

"Yeah, that's what I expect to hear from a Lucario that has no honor and no self respect to a friend like your boss."

"Honor are just fools excuses to do things they don't have to do. They believe they can die with respect. Look around you and the world itself. Does it look like anyone is going to care forever? Once you're dead you're dead and no amount of honor is ever going to justify throwing your life away just so people will abuse and take your sacrifice for granted. That is how it always has been and in my view the concept of honor is evil, wrong, and as corrupt as the fools that made it in the first place to try and control and manipulate the lives of people who do not need to die. So yes I have no honor and I would rather shoot myself then even try to understand the meaningless concept. And if you think I'm bullshiting you why don't you go talk to your parents grave after we kill you and ask them does honor even matter anymore. And the Master is not my boss, he is my master, who I am willing to follow to the gates of hell and back."

"You really like to talk don't ya? Want to kill me the right way? Untie me and fight me instead of hiding behind your master."

Aaron grabs the remote Omen left that can activate this.

"How about this, I press this button and fry you in that chair till you die from either electrocution or blood loss from the barbwire."

Aaron presses the button and electrocutes Shawn, causing him to twitch madly in agony and causes the barbwire all over him to start cutting him up badly.

"Like I said, your attempts to play mind games with me amount to less than nothing. So stop wasting your own time."

(yelling in pain) "Why don't you stop electrocuting me and kill me already!"

Aaron only responded by increasing the power of the electricity.

(yelling in pain) "That's it? That's all you got?!"

Aaron just places the remote down close to him and sits back on a table to watch Shawn struggle through the torture he is currently in.

(Weakly) (Panting) "Enjoying... the show?"

Aaron does not respond.

"Fuck it. Whatever get it over with." As Shawn's head lowers down.

"The master hasn't decided your fate yet. However I am allowed to terminate you as soon as you try something. But since you haven't tried anything or broke out yet. I will not terminate you until the master tells me otherwise."

"Well you seem to be enjoying yourself torturing me. So just kill me. You have everything on me, my family and friends. I've got nothing else. Just leave my family alone."

Aaron sighs.

"The master would've protected your family if you just listened to him. But like an idiotic fool you spat in his face when he asked you to join him. Now you and your family are going to pay the consequences for your decision. So in the end when you've lost everything, you'll only have yourself to blaime. No different than how you have yourself to blame for your father's death."

"I never blamed myself when my dad died. He knew he was going to die on duty."

"And yet you were not there to save him or help in time. Just as you won't be there to save your current family from them."

"Them?"

Before Aaron continued the power suddenly shuts off. Aaron stands up and places his hand on his mic.

"This is Aaron. Hack what's going on?"

(through Mic) "That bastard Glukhov finally got here with his team. He just cut the power so stage one of our plan to finally kill the son of a bitch once and for all is on go. Once he makes his way to wherever we've got something special in mind. Courtesy from the boss himself."

While Aaron was talking with Hack. Shawn slowly started pulling his arms out of the barbwire behind him. Cringing heavily on how much flesh was being torn and cut from doing so.

"Understand. Good luck and stay safe Hack."

(over mic) "Don't worry I've tangled with Glukhov and his son of a bitch squad several times. I can handle him. And I know the boss can kick his ass."

"Ok, just please keep an eye on the master for me. Over and out."

Aaron hangs up but without him noticing Shawn begins to loosen the barbwire slowly so he doesn't notice even if it shredding him a bit. Aaron goes back to laying back on the wall staring at Shawn with his usual death glare as Shawn goes slower. Suddenly he heard his mic come on again.

"Hello? Ace? What are you doing calling this channel?"

Shawn took the opportunity and started trying to slip out of his barbed wire bonds as quick as he can. Cringing even more from the tearing of his flesh it made on him.

"What's going on? No the Master is not with me he's currently got his hands full at the moment. Ace and I know you wouldn't contact me unless this was an emergency and I know you want a status report but this really isn't the best time to…"

Shawn had enough time to slip out of his bond, untie himself, and quickly rush over to Aaron to deliver a powerful punch to his face to send him across the room.

(through mic) "Aaron? Aaron what happened what's going on?"

Shawn recognized that voice. He picked up the mic and answered.

"Hello Ace, long time no see."

(through mic and shocked) "Shawn? You bastard!"

"Yeah it's me. I remember that voice from anywhere."

(through mic) "What the hell do you want from me haven't you destroyed me enough? First you ruined my largest operation that nearly crippled me and now you want to destroy my family?! Have I wronged you in a different life or something?!"

"Oh I'm not done yet. Let's see after I kick his ass."

A crimson aura sphere hits Shawn in the back and sends him flying through the table hard. Because of his injuries from the barbed wire that tore his body up and the pain from the electricity, Shawn tried getting up as his blood poured all over the ground. Aaron appeared, pulled his head back with his hair.

"Alright you want to do this your way. Let's dance."

Aaron slammed Shawn hard into the wall and punch Shawn hard enough in the jaw to break it. Shawn drops to the ground as he looked up to him and got back up as he cracked and fixed his jaw.

"You wanna play rough? Let's play!"

Shawn tears off his shirt revealing his tattooed abs with the tribal dragon tattoo on him as he prepares to fight.

"Come on, let's go."

Aaron just slightly tilted his head and used extreme speed to dash at Shawn and deliver a powerful thrust punch to his gut before proceeded to use iron claws to slash at the countless barbed wire cuts all over Shawn's body. Shawn flinched but grabbed one of Aaron's paws and threw him into the wall as he repeatedly punches him in the stomach, pulls him out and slams his head against the wall as Shawn was still in pain from the barbed wire cuts and electricity torture. Aaron kicks Shawn hard between the legs before slamming the back of his head up Shawn's nose. Aaron did a jump spin side kick to his face and begins punching Shawn in the face. Shawn dodges one of these punches, grabs Aaron in the arm, and moves behind him to perform a painful arm lock behind him. Aaron yelled but continues to elbow Shawn in his head to try and make him release him. As Shawn let go he then does a split and punched him right into his bells as Aaron covers his crotch in pain.

"You may be strong but you're not strong down there."

Aaron looks at Shawn and grabs Shawn by his head and does a powerful knee strike to his face and follows up by throwing him to the ground. From there, Aaron does a jump flip ax kick towards Shawn's bells and makes him yell in pain. From there Aaron grabs Shawn by the leg and does a painful leg lock to try and snap Shawn's leg in two. Shawn struggles a bit till he as punches his shin triggering it to let go of him as Shawn was on top of him beating him down with all of his strength a until his face begins to bruise but not out of the fight yet. Aaron used the spike on the back of one of his paws to stab Shawn in one of the many cuts on him and slashes it even deeper. Shawn was forced to let go of Aaron and grab his cut. Shawn kicks Aaron off of him, leaps on top of him and started doing the same thing to Shawn and repeatedly punch Aaron in the face to the point he was badly bruised in the face and a good majority of bones were cracked. Shawn grabbed his arm in one of his punches and snaps Aaron's wrist in two. Aaron yells and gets off of Shawn as the two stood back up. Aaron snaps his wrist back in place and got back ready again.

"Okay this fight is getting us nowhere. No matter how many times we break each others bones we just snap it back in. You have to agree with me on that."

Aaron just dashed to Shawn, grabs him by the arm and snaps his left arm to the point that the bone tears through the skin a little. While Shawn lets out a yell, Aaron does the same to his right leg before kneeing Shawn in the stomach and elbow slam the back of Shawn's head.

"And you say I talk too much."

"Yeah you really do."

Shawn tries pushing his bones back snapping it back in place as Aaron dashed as Shawn dodge rolled to the side. Aaron comes in again with a kick but Shawn grabs his leg and shatters his left leg and punched him three times in face till his mouth bled out knocking him down. Shawn next grabbed his arm and twisted his arm breaking it not so easily to snap back in. In a fit of rage, Aaron tackles Shawn and rams him through the wall through another room. The two found themselves at the casino area of the ship. Even in their torn up shape the two continued to brutally punch and strike each other. Even going as far as to smash one another through different casino tables and even smash beer bottles or other things at one another. Eventually Aaron kicks Shawn in the knee of his broken leg to break his knee and proceeds to brutally punch Shawn's ribs to break almost all of his ribs. After which Aaron kicks Shawn in the neck to break his neck and send him falling off a ledge where Shawn lands back first on a table that breaks his back. Seeing that he beat Shawn, Aaron's injuries finally take a told and he collapses off the edge and lands through alongside him as he breaks his back and leg and cracked his skull at the collision but didn't kill him as they were both heavily injured and both passed out unconscious. Allot of the Legion soldiers entered the area to see what was going on. They gasped at seeing the two blacked out from such a barbaric fight. Omen quickly rushed into the room to see Aaron in his condition.

"Aaron!"

Omen quickly rushes to Aaron side and tries to see if he was responsive.

"Oh no, get him to Nurse Joy. I mean now dammit!" Omen ordered his men to do.

There was a slight moment Shawn slightly woke up to see Omen standing up above him. Omen grabs Shawn by the broken neck and holds him high up in the air with one hand effortlessly. Omen's eyes flashing bright red in furious rage as he started strangling Shawn's broken neck and crushing his windpipe.

"What did you do to Aaron you fucking bastard!" Omen roared at Shawn in a almost heard his inhuman voice from his gas mask.

Shawn tried talking but could not even breath from everything that's happened. Enraged, Omen effortlessly throws Shawn to the ground.

"Get him out of my sight!"

Omen storms out the area as his men grab Shawn and drag his blacked out body to a cell. Meanwhile, Phoenix, Blair, Luke, Lex, and Kia sat quietly in their cells wondering if Glokhov arrived or not. Suddenly Omen storms in the room and rushes straight to the Nurse Joy.

"You, in the medical room, Now!" Omen yells.

The Legion soldiers bring and bloody up and beaten Shawn and Aaron in the room. Phoenix was shocked to see him heavily injured as she wants to know what happened to him.

"What the hell happened to these two?" Nurse Joy asked.

"They were in a brutal fight that knocked them out."

"Nurse Joy, you are to focus all your attention to getting my Lucario healed. If he dies I will personally kill everyone on this ship with my bare hands do you understand." Omen asked as he pulls a gun out on her and points it to her.

"Wait what about?"

Before she could finish, Omen shoots a warning shot at her.

"NOW DAMNIT!" Omen yells at her. Scaring everyone even his own men.

"Sir, with all due respect you can't rush into doing this. If I go too quickly I could kill him and I'm helping the other one too. It's my job as a nurse to do so."

Omen hand shook in anger and he points it to Shawn.

"If he blew this fucker's brains out will you pay more focus to my Lucario?!"

"Hey boss come on calm down, she's just trying to do her job."

"If I have to kill everyone on this ship to save Aaron so be it but you are going to save him nurse as Arceus as my fucking witness do you hear me!" Omen yells again as he shoves the pistol up Shawn's forehead who is still blacked out. Phoenix sees him pointing a gun at Shawn's head.

"No please! Please don't kill him!"

Omen looks towards Phoenix his eyes flashing a bright red in fury.

"Don't kill him? I am within my rights to put a bullet in his head for almost killing my Lucario. Give me one damn good reason why I shouldn't!" Omen roars at her with an almost monstrous voice.

"Please don't kill him because I don't my kids to grow up without a father especially Abby. Abby doesn't even know him yet and you're about to take that away from her. I beg you please let my husband go. You said you never meant to hurt anyone then why hurt a family man."

She looked down crying as tears dripped from her eyes onto the floor. This actually caused something in Omen as he started shaking to the point he couldn't hold the gun. As if he was scared on what could happen next. Drake and Thomas saw this and gently took the gun away from Omen.

"Boss, it's going to be ok just calm down please. This isn't you." Thomas reasoned with Omen.

"Master, Aaron is strong he's survived worse. He's going to be ok. Don't do this the guy has a family he's got an infant kid." Drake also reasoned with Omen.

Omen stood shaking badly for a moment before he turns to look at nurse joy.

"Please, save Aaron. He's not just my Lucario, he's my son." Omen slowly started exiting the room to let Nurse joy get to work on both Aaron and Shawn.

"What? He's your son?" Phoenix asked as she raised her head while sniffling.

"Bring her to the captain's room in a hour. I want to have a talk with her." Omen said calmly before leaving.

"Yes sir." Thomas answered. When Omen was gone, Thomas actually took his mask and helmet off and walked up to nurse joy.

"Is Aaron going to be ok nurse?" Thomas asked in deep worry.

"He's stable but I'll keep it stable as long as I can but he won't hold for long. If he does make it he could be in coma.

"This isn't the first time he's been in a coma. Just tell me how long can he hold before he needs proper medical help?" Thomas asked.

"Maybe a couple of hours. Just need to keep stable but I'm not sure how long. I say we need something to carry him out before that happens."

"We'll take care of him." Thomas looks at Phoenix.

"Thank you."

"You, the boss want's to speak with you privately. With me, now." Thomas said to Phoenix as Drake opens the cell and pulls her out to follow Thomas. Later Thomas lead Phoenix to the captain's room, releases her of the cuffs and shuts the door behind her.

"Have a seat please." Phoenix heard Omen asking her calmly.

Phoenix looks up to see Omen looking out at the window at the sea. Seeing one of the great islands from the distance. Phoenix takes a seat as she was told.

"Phoenix but you have no last name. Born February 19, 1991. You were being taken care of by Jackson your former trainer before Pokemon could talk. You started just fine with your trainer as you progressed to her full Blaziken. Jackson tried to be with you but you didn't have feelings for him so he drunk abused but not rape because he knew it would be too far." Omen began as he turned to look at Phoenix and waited for her response.

"He knew he wasn't a real man if he did that. He just beat me till I bleed or bruise."

Omen took a seat in front of her.

"And one day Shawn rescued you from that personal hell and blessed you with the life you currently share and live with him right now with your two daughters Zeya and Abby."

She looked down sad. "Yes."

Omen did not respond.

"Thank you for stopping me from doing something I would've deeply regretted. I'm sorry for my rage and almost killing Shawn it's just, what I saw what did to Aaron I just snapped."

"Yeah no shit."

"I know first hand what it would've been like for Abby if I had taken Shawn away from her. I've seen it before and no one should ever experience that. I almost became the very thing I despised so still thank you Phoenix."

"Why should you thank me? You probably did the same thing to other people before you came to this ship."

Omen pauses.

"Perhaps you're right young lady. In my mid fifties with out of the gates of hell and back experience and I'm still no wiser than I was a foolish young man all those years ago."

"What do you want this all of us? Money? power? something?" Phoenix asking

Omen looks at her.

"You really want to know what I want from all of this?" he asked her.

When Phoenix nodded her head, Omen simply gave her a picture of a large and beautiful lavender flower.

"A plant, you're doing all of this over a plant?" she asked in shock.

"Yes…" Omen answered.

"I don't fucking believe this! You took the ship over, demanded for something I even don't know over a fucking flower?!" Phoenix raising her voice at Omen.

"Yes, its all over a fucking flower." Omen admitted.

"Why? You nearly killed my husband for a flower? Why?!" Phoenix Yelled at Omen.

"Because that flower is the main ingredient to the cure for Arnis Syndrome." Omen answered calmly.

"What the hell is that?"

"Arnis Syndrome, the very disease that killed Logan your friend Blair's husband. Remember now?" Omen reminded her.

"Yes, I remember."

"Then you know how serious the disease is and how everyone would tell you there is no cure for it." Omen continued.

"I already fucking know, okay?!"

"So yes, I'm doing all of this for a cure for Arnis Syndrome." Omen answered.

"For who?"

"My granddaughter." Omen answered.

"Your granddaughter? What do you mean?"

Omen sighed and lays back in his seat.

"To understand your going to have to listen to my side of the story. I know you must hate me with all your being but can you put that aside to listen to an old man's sad and pathetic story for a few minutes please." Omen asked kindly.

"It's not pathetic until you tell me."

Omen paused for a sec.

"Aaron as you heard is my son. But not by blood no. I took him in, adopted him, and raised him as if he was my actual son. I have always been with Aaron since the moment he was born so to me he is my son and to him I am his father. So now we go to part two of this story. Has Shawn ever told you about the don of the mafia Ace?" Omen asked Phoenix.

"He only mentioned about him being the don. That's all we knew."

"Well, during when I was first forming Legion, I needed the equipment the Mafia had. So I met with Ace whose empire was crippled a little thanks to Shawn. We formed an agreement that would help us both. And part of that agreement was he wanted Aaron to be his daughter, Crystal's bodyguard." Omen answered.

"So my husband busts Ace's drug operation and Aaron was only there because of his daughter?"

"We met Ace after the bust. If Ace's mafia empire would supply us the weapons and equipment we needed, in return we would give him the military power and trained men to protect all his future operations. The deal went so well that Ace personally requested for Aaron to be his daughter's bodyguard."

"I don't understand where this is going?"

"Pretty simple. Aaron and Crystal spent allot of time together. Eventually one thing lead to a surprise after another. And before long, Aaron and Crystal were going to have a baby together."

"They were? What happened?"

"Team Rocket, Team Magma, Team Aqua, Team Plasma, Team Galactic, you name it. All the teams happened. I formed Legion to fight these teams. They found out and attacked Aaron while he was with Crystal who was delivering at the time. The result...both Aaron and Crystal were badly injured and ended up in comas. Aaron woke up but Crystal has yet to wake up from her's. She was able to deliver the egg safely and from it, hatched me and Ace's granddaughter who we named Linna."

"At least Linna is safe, right?"

Omen paused.

"Aaron may have woken up but he suffered from heavy amnesia from the incident. Now he doesn't even remember either Crystal or Linna and every time I try to have him remember or bond with Linna he refuses to even look at her. And he has no idea that's his daughter. And everything we've tried in returning his memory has failed. And that's only the start of it. Around a week after Lina hatched from her egg. She contracted Arnis Syndrome, inherited from her father. Aaron had it when he was her age and she inherited from him. She's two weeks old right now and it's killing her just as bad as it was destroying Logan."

Phoenix was shocked hearing about Aaron's daughter condition. "Oh my Arceus. That's horrible."

"When Aaron had it the same age as her. I thought I was going to lose Aaron. However back in Vietnam, I found a plant, a flower. Growing in the middle of a body covered battlefield. It was the most beautiful thing I ever saw. So I took it back home with me and gave it to Aaron's mother. When she died because of the Teams it was all I had left to remember her by. I was forced to destroy the only thing I had left to remember her by to save Aaron's life. As it turned out that flower was the main ingredient to a cure to Arnis Syndrome. So that is how Aaron is still alive right now. But now now Linna whose only two weeks old has the same thing her father has and I don't have that flower with me this time to save her life. That flower is on the endangered plants list and it is so rare that countries are willing to nuke one another to get their hands on just one because it is worth billions. Now do you understand why I am doing all of this?" Omen asked.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know. Look I don't care if you destroy other teams but you don't have to takes hostages to do things like this. You could run auctions, donations, drives and so on."

"You think we haven't tried that already. You think we haven't tried every possible solution to find that damn plant. Linn's condition is getting worse by the second even as we speak here and I'm out of time."

"But people would dedicate their lives to finding the plant."

"Young lady, Lina doesn't have that long. The only way I was going to get this plant in time was to force the governments to find one for us. Believe me I have tried and done everything I could and if I have to suck this whole world dry of life to find that plant so be it but I am not going to sit by and watch my two week old granddaughter who doesn't even know about her family suffer and die like that without even having a chance to even live life. You would do the same for Abby if you were in my shoes."

"Yes, I would dry out the planet to do the same but I would never take hostages like even for my own needs like that."

"Young lady, you are talking to an old man who is desperate and doesn't have much left. I just want to get my granddaughter and my daughter in law back to health so Aaron can finally have the life I could never give him. That neither me or Ace could give him or Crystal. I wouldn't have done this if I wasn't so desperate and had no other options left, so believe me when I say I had no other choice left."

"I can see now why you're doing this."

"And in the end it's turning out for nothing. Did you know that in all of history there's only been four found samples of this thing, me included back in Vietnam. So yes its near impossible to find it but the government doesn't think its worth the lives on this ship. And now, they're going to ignore my demands, I will be forced to carry out my threat, and worst of all I'll be going back empty handed, and Lina won't survive the next few months." Omen started shaking again and almost sounded like he was on the verge of crying.

Phoenix remembers the flower that Shawn gave to her that looked exactly like it.

"I think I've seen that flower before."

Omen's head shot up in disbelief.

(disbelief) "What?"

"That flower. I've seen it before."

"Where, do you still have it?"

"Yes, I have it right here."

Phoenix pulls the small flower from her hair and shows it to Omen. Omen is taken back by absolute shock and disbelief as he stares at the flower.

(absolute shock and disbelief) "Oh my Arceus. There it is. It's a small one going through the first stages of its life but that's it."

"Yes, my husband picked it out for me. I didn't know what kind of flower it was. Take it and use to save Lina."

She slowly hands it to Omen.

"I don't understand. Why are you doing this for me? After all that me and my men put you and Shawn through. After all the knowledge we have on you and your family. Why?"

"Well I still hate you for nearly killing my husband but I can't stand to see a parent suffer while everyone they know are in a hospital bed."

Omen sighs.

"And is your right to judge me fairly."

Omen pulls out a picture and shows it to Phoenix.

"Here's a picture of Lina asleep with her mother Crystal. Crystal was still in a coma at the time but we knew she would at least want one picture with her daughter while she was still an infant."

The picture showed a beautiful Lucario in a coma like sleep on a medical bed with several I.V.s strapped to her. Despite this she seemed to be in a deep peaceful sleep. In her arms she held a infant albino Riolu who had her father's albino white colors but strongly resembled her mother physically in almost every way. The Riolu was also in a deep sleep just like her mother.

Phoenix was shocked to see the Lucario in coma yet despite this was still able to hold her infant like any sleeping mother would with their sleeping child. "I'm so sorry to see them like that. Seeing what those teams done to your family like that."

"I know. It was amazing. Crystal was still in a coma yet we could tell she was doing everything she could to at least hold her daughter for the first time. And that's not even the beginning of what the teams have done. The Teams have been doing this to me and the people that serve under me for twenty years. That's why we exist, to destroy them once and for all."

Meanwhile back in the holding cell area. Nurse Joy continued to treat both Shawn and Aaron while Blair, Luke, and the others were forced to watch behind their holding cells and while Drake kept a close eye on them.

"Stop staring at me, you ass." yelled lex.

"Sorry, orders are orders. I suggest you keep your damn mouth shut because I am not in the mood right now to hear your bullshit while my friend here is fighting for his life." Drake growled at Lex.

"Whatever pansy."

"Your one to talk with your shitty karate and your failed disguised as a chef the other night. Gave me and the guys a laugh how the master just went along with it yet clearly knew what an ass you're making of yourself."

"You want to back that up buddy?"

"You want to fight, why don't you stick your own head up your ass and fight for air."

"Come on. I can take you!"

"Lex give it up man the guy's a charizard and he's a beast he tear you a new one before you even had time to start showing off." Luke moaned.

"Seriously does no one have any faith that I can take this guy?"

"No we don't Lex." Blair moaned in annoyance.

"Seriously?"

(All) "No!"

Meanwhile with Glukhov and his team as they were checking their weapons ammo as they were on the ship sneaking around in the engine room.

(Pilot) "Were approaching the ship now eta two minutes."

(Silesius) "What's your plan, boss?"

"Alright, listen up. As you know the ship has been taken hostage these bastards. We need to find where they're being held and take them out. Silesius you stay behind until your need. Don't want to start a panic or they could kill the hostages. Swiftstreak and Aurora will take out the guards quietly at the corners of the ship from high to low. Yin Lee you're with me and remember beware the citizens around any of them could be in disguised and my friends are on this ship. Move out."

As the team moved out in separate ways Aurora silently take them into the bad corner without being seen and sleeper holds them to knock them out as Swiftstreak goes behind them, grabs them by the mask as he strikes a pressure point to knock them out as they moved on to the next. While Glukhov and Yin Lee were searching down deeper into the ship as he spots around them corner.

"Sir look. Is that them?" Yin Lee asks

"Yes, that's them. Move in quietly I'm right behind you."

As they moved in slowly behind the guard making sudden moves till Yin kicked something by accident as the guard turned around and Yin begins fighting him. Drake noticed the guard fighting somebody and wondered what was going on.

"I'll be back." Drake told Luke, Geena, and the others as he got up and walked towards the source of the sound he heard.

Yin continues to fight him till he punched him in the face knocking him out as he sees a Charizard coming towards them.

"Sir?"

"I got this. Silesius, now!"

"Don't guy's I got this."

Silesius drops through the floor in of them standing between Glukhov and the Charizard. His wrists activates his handheld gatling gun as he begins shooting towards the Charizard. Drake takes cover from the ricocheting bullets tearing the walls apart as he stopped for a moment for a reaction. Drake jumps and charges at him head on as Silesius hold their ground head to head with locked eye with him as Yin jumps on his back distracting them. While they were distracting Drake Glukhov made his move to help them rest as he noticed Phoenix wasn't here.

"Are you Glukhov?" Blair asks

"Yes I'm Glukhov I'm here to help and you must be his friends."

Glukhov releases them all.

(through radio) "All teams move to the cell section we have a breech." Hack announced over the radio alerting all the Legion soldiers in the ship of the situation.

"Shit they got Hack with them." Glukhov cursed under his breath.

"Shawn is in the next room in critical condition." Luke said to Glukhov.

"Sir we got a move, all of the Legion soldiers stationed are on their way right here."

Glukhov looks at Shawn's friends.

"Take me to Shawn, I need to see him."

Meanwhile, Nurse Joy was inserting the last I.V. inside Shawn's arm to try and get him in a stable condition. Since Omen crushed his windpipe, he had a air mask on his face so he can breath better. Aaron was in no best condition either as he was still not responding as much as Shawn. Glukhov and Shawn's friends ran over to the next room where Shawn and Aaron were being treated.

"Shawn? Holy hell!" Glukhov gasped.

"They did a number on this guy." Yin said.

"Nurse Joy is he okay?" Blair asks

"Yes he is stable but he is in very, very serious critical condition. If you're here to move him quickly you'll have to check on that plan because if you move him too much he may not make it."

"Ah guys, the honky patrol are here." Luke said as he raised his hands.

Everyone turns around to see a huge group of Legion Soldiers holding gun point at them. Drake comes back beaten up but kicked Silesius to Glukhov. Thomas soon enters and holds a pistol to Glukhov.

"Glukhov…"

"Thomas. You've grown and got promoted I see. Why the last time I saw you, you were still a little shit in training for that little group you all kiss up to."

Thomas fires a warning round at Glukhov.

"Step away from Aaron Glukhov. Now…" Thomas loads his pistol again.

"Or else what?"

"Look around you. We got you surrounded, Hack has all your information and has a lock on you. You can't run or hide from us and we have you at gunpoint at this moment. So be the wise old man you are and step away from Aaron now."

"Let's relax now, Thomas. It doesn't need to end like this."

"Why do you care, you just see us all as terrorists, so what's it to you if it doesn't end like this old man?" Thomas asked.

"I know what you guys are fighting for."

"If you do then what and why the hell are you kissing up to those damn politicians who allow the Teams to do whatever they please to us and not lift damn finger to help anyone or do anything about them.

"We don't allow the teams to do any of those things. Stealing legends and using them as they please.

"Old man you're seriously pissing me off again with your bullshit now last warning. Back away from Aaron now or we'll shoot you and everyone here and now." The other Legion soldiers ready their weapons.

"Okay Thomas but you're doing this for all the wrong reasons. You think your family would be if they knew about this. If they knew that you didn't join the army but joined paramilitary."

"Old man you tried this reasoning shit ten years ago. What makes you think its going to work now. Besides that was ten years ago and I'm not some kid anymore. My family have since known what I'm doing and they both understand. Not only that the boss and my family in Legion also keeps them safe. And how is trying to save my best friend Aaron considered a wrong thing?"

"Kia, I love you more then anything in this world and guys you are all the best friends a Nidoking could ever ask for. So much for not getting killed."

Lex suddenly grabs Aaron and holds him by the throat.

"Alright you Legion bastard I'm sick of being treated like I'm the handicap of this whole thing. Piss off now or I break this guy's neck. NOW DAMMIT!"

"Lex what the hell have you gone mad?" Kia gasped in fear.

"Oh Arceus!" Nurse Joy screamed as Aaron's condition begins to worsen. All the Legion soldiers froze in fear of not sure what to do.

"Alright Thomas, now here's your only warning. I would like to have a talk with your boss." Glukhov mentioned.

Thomas hesitated and looked at his men. Drake sighed to him and contacted Omen.

(Over the mic) "What is it?"

"Sir, we've got a serious problem. It's Glukhov, he's here and, he's got Aaron hostage."

(Over mic) "What, put him on the mic."

Glukhov takes the mic.

(Over the mic) "You really think it would be that easy Glukhov. Meet me in the captain's deck. I have your friend Phoenix and we're going to have a prisoner exchange."

Before Glukhov could answer Omen hangs up. Thomas and the Legion soldiers motioned for all of them to follow them to the captain's deck. Everyone moved over to the captain's deck where they found Omen with Phoenix next to his side holding her by gunpoint.

"Glukhov Sivakov, once again our paths cross. The first few times were amusing until they became annoying. And now you have succeeded to seriously pissing me off to a personal level."

"I was kind of hoping we would meet on the battlefield."

"I agree like soldiers. However we find ourselves in this situation again. Now on with the prisoner exchange. You and that idiot Lex have my Lucario in a critical condition. However I have your friend Phoenix with me. My business here is done and I have what I need. So if would just give me Aaron back and let us go. We will bother you people no more, and I will give Phoenix back as well. "

"That's it?"

"Yes that is it. No bloodshed, no more violence. Just don't harm Aaron and let us go we will leave and Phoenix can come back to you. And that's it and all."

"Alright but I want something too. I want you to delete my friends and their friends information. No copies. No nothing like that."

"Is that all Glukhov?"

"Yes and I don't want you spying on my nieces or them. Any of them for that matter. Deal or no deal?"

Omen gently pulls his gun away from Phoenix and shows that it was never loaded to begin with.

"Done. Now for your end of the bargain." Omen asked as he motioned for Phoenix to walk to Glukhov and her friends. Glukhov has Lex hand Aaron over to some Legion soldiers and bring him gently over to Omen's side.

"There. You have him back. Now delete the info and be a man of your word!"

Omen taps on his mic.

"Hack did you hear what he said. Do as he said and delete all the information we have on Shawn's family and his friend's family Everything. Once your done commence with stage three. We have what we came for."

Omen lets go of his mic.

"There you go. I'm always a man of my word."

"How can I be sure. Even a honest man can lie."

"That may be true. But an honest man who is grateful for an ultimate act of kindness would never lie to returning the favor."

"Okay. i don't want to see you around my friends or my family again."

Just as he said that to Omen, all the power of the ship turns off and makes a complete blackout. When the power comes back on, Omen, and all of his men were gone in an instant.

"Dude I don't think he can hear you. He's gone like a ninja." Luke whispered.

"How the hell can all those guys disappear that fast all like that?" Lex asked before Kia punches him hard in the face.

"Ow! What the hell Kia?!"

"Don't ever do that again you prideful asshole!"

She hugs him tightly and cries on his shoulder.

"Shawn!" As Glukhov remembered and went back to check on him as they all followed.

"Nurse Joy, status?"

"He's not stabling for that long. He needs a hospital in half hour or he's in trouble."

"Okay secure the landing zone now. Send in for another for my team."

(Pilot) "Roger that."

The dropship comes down on the landing pad as they run to the ship placing him in as Glukhov, Phoenix, her friends jump in and took off as the other one picked up the team and flew off.

"What about the people on the ship?"

"It'll be fine. Coast guard will handle this. Right now let's get Shawn to the hospital."

Phoenix checks on Shawn as he could barely speak as he looks at her.

(Weakly) "Pho-enix."

"Shawn, you'll be fine."

"Ma'am, step aside. Punch it were losing him."

The ship went faster as Phoenix was scared for his life and can't imagine what could happen to him. They arrived back to the city as they called in for a landing on the helipad. Medic's came out with a bed as Phoenix carried him.

"Please he needs help."

The medics take him as they rushed him inside as they ran with them.

"Dr. Iwata. What's his condition?" The nurse asks

"He has brutal bruises, very deep cuts, lost allot of blood, windpipe crushed, and almost every bone in his body broken. I don't know how much time he has left. He needs immediate surgery now."

The nurse stops them at their tracks as the nurse ran along with the door. The doctors and nurses prepare for surgery as they put on masks, gloves and protective clothing. They bring out the tools as they put Shawn to sleep. Once they have him asleep, the doctors politely lead Phoenix and their friends to the waiting room.

"We've contacted your families, they're on their way right now." one of the doctors said to them.

"Okay. Will he be okay?" Phoenix asks anxiously

"We're sorry ma'am we don't know. We'll be sure to let you know as soon as we can." The doctor answered before heading back to the operating room.

"Thank you."

Phoenix and the rest went to sit down as Phoenixes head was down in her hands cover her face as she begins to cry as tears drip out of her hands. Blair sits next to her trying to comfort her as she lays her hand on her back.

"It'll be okay, Phoenix. I know Shawn will get through this."

"Meema, Meema!" Blair and the others heard two almost identical twin Shiny Zoras come rushing up to Blair in excitement. Blair drops to her knees and hugs both her twin girls tightly, crying in pure joy that they're safe and okay.

"Those are your kids, Blair? They're so cute." As Phoenix was adored by their blue color and adorable they looked as Blair picks them both up.

"Yes this is them. This is Kelly and Ellah."

"How can you tell the difference?"

"The collars with their names on it. See?" She shows Kelly's pink collar on the left and Ellah's blue one on the right.

"Mommy!" Phoenix heard Zeya come rushing in while carrying Abby.

"Zeya! Abby! My sweet babies!" She hugs them both tightly after missing them so much.

"Mommy, are you okay?"

"Yes, I am fine."

"Where's daddy?"

"In there." As Phoenix pointed at the Emergency door, Nero and his family along with Blair's parents entered the room.

"Oh Arceus no."

Zeya cringed a bit as Hyro holds her tightly as she cries in his arms sniffling

"Ok, please tell us what happened?" Nero began.

"Uh...aren't you going to introduce us since we were there?" Luke asked as he and his pokemon felt out of place since they didn't seem to know anyone.

"Who the heck are you?" Koda asked.

"This is Luke and Geena and these guys are Lex and Kia."

Koda raised an eyebrow and scanned the group over up and down.

"Daddy you can trust them."

"I guess, is this the Nidoking you mentioned that was really bad at Karate?"

"Are you guys ever going to leave me alone about that?"

Koda sighs and walks back over to Blair.

"So Phoenix, where's Shawn is he ok?" Nero asked.

"He's in surgery right now."

"We'll wait all night if we have too."

As they waited hours till daylight until night time once again came from the intense surgery everybody was sleeping in the waiting room as Doctor Iwata came out as the light shut off. The doctor woke her up.

"Ms. Phoenix?"

"Doctor? Doctor, is he okay?" Phoenix asked she grabs him by the coat anxiously.

"He will be fine just needs to rest for now. We don't know if he'll wake up yet but we'll have to wait until then. You can go and see him if you like."

As they walked in they see Shawn wrapped in bandages from the beatings and cuts, casts from the broken bones as he was hooked to a machine to help him breath along with several I.V.s pumping medicine, painkillers, and other necessary liquids into his system. The family were shocked to see him like this. Koda was the first to notice this and quietly said to them.

"We'll give you three sometime with him. Let us know if you need us."

Koda lead everyone but Shawn's family out of the room. Giving Phoenix, Zeya, and Abby some time with Shawn. Zeya and Phoenix took a seat close to Shawn as Phoenix held Abby who was asleep in her arms.

"Shawn...can you hear me?" Phoenix asked gently while still trying to hold back the heavy tears forming in her eyes. When Shawn didn't respond Zeya gently placed her hands on Shawn's hand.

"Daddy, it's me Zeya, with mom and Abby." Zeya said softly but still struggled to hold back her sadness. "Can you hear us?"

(Weakly) "Zey-a?"

Shawn wakes up slightly as his vision was blur but he can almost see them as it clears up as he sees the family here.

"Phoenix? Zeya? Abby?" Shawn asked still feeling very weak and unable to move his body at all. He still felt extremely tired like as if he was about to fall asleep at any moment again but he fought the urge to try and see his family for as long as he can.

"Shawn, it's us. All of us are here."

"Phoenix, what happen?"

"That Aaron guy put you in the hospital bed."

"I definitely remember that." (Groans) "I mean what happened how did we get here. Where's that Omen guy and Legion, and our friends. What happened?" (Groans)

"Daddy please take it easy you just woke up from intensive surgery."

Shawn relaxes a little.

"Come on, Zeya. Let's leave your father to rest."

"Ok."

"No, can you guys please stay with me. I haven't seen my daughters in a whole week and I've been scared to death for all three of you. So can you three just stay please." Shawn asked as he fought the urge to fall back asleep.

"No Shawn. You really need to rest."

"But Phoenix?"

"No Shawn."

"But let me at least tell you something."

"Okay. Go outside, Zeya. I'll join you in a sec."

Zeya leaves the room with Abby as Phoenix sat back down next to Shawn.

"You know this moment reminds me a lot about something."

"About what?"

"About… how we met. When I rescued you from a certain death, I took you to the Pokemon center and I visited you till you got better for you to come out. Remember that? It's like that moment all over again."

Phoenix smiled as she petted Shawn's head a little.

"It does."

She kissed him gently on the forehead.

"Now get some rest, you need it and maybe when you heal up nicely I'll give you a nice treat. We'll be outside if you need any of us."

Phoenix turns the lights off and walks outside as Shawn closes his eyes and goes back to a deep sleep.

Meanwhile at an unknown location inside another medical room. Omen stands calmly in an observation room as he watches Aaron who was wrapped in bandages from the beatings and cuts, casts from the broken bones as he was hooked to a machine to help him breath along with several I.V.s pumping medicine, painkillers, and other necessary liquids into his system. A different Nurse Joy walks up and stands beside Omen.

"Aaron will be okay and if everything goes well he should wake up in a day or two." Nurse Joy reported to him.

"What is the status of the flower I brought back?"

"I will say there is no better sample that you can find other then that one. It's at the first stage of it's life cycle. We won't be able to extract the antidote for Lina's condition until it reaches stage two but we should be able to keep Lina comfortable and stable until then. All and all she's going to be ok once we make the cure for her."

"And her mother Crystal?"

"She still hasn't woken up from her coma however she is showing increasing signs of movement so we believe that she maybe getting better."

"I see. Contact Ace and tell him the good news that the mission was a success."

"I'll do that once I get Aaron some more anesthetics."

"Oh and, can I see Lina real quick please."

"Sure thing she's in her room. She's really out of it from tons of medicine we have her hooked on but she's comfortable and stable."

"Thank you Nurse Joy. Let me know of any progress with Aaron or Crystal."

Omen leaves and enters another medical room. There he walks over to a small medical bed where a baby albino Riolu was in a deep sedative state with several I.V.s hooked up to her pumping several different medicines into her system. Omen carefully wraps her small pink blanket over her to keep her warm. He notices her moaning a little and gently holds her tiny little paw in his hands.

"Shhh...it's alright. Grandpa is here for you...Everything is going to be alright, I'm here and I promise, I will make it all right. I promise." Omen said softly to his granddaughter as he stayed with her the rest of the night.


Thank you for reading part 2. Sorry for the month long wait.
