Adventure 11
Paw Of The Jaguar And Claw Of The Dragon
The Burrow, Site B
Once Kipo and Kalena flew down to the others they saw everyone, even a now awake Aqua, had a shook/ happy look on their faces, but the z-move they saw, and the heroic glow coming off Kipo and Kalena. "Don't just stand there with your jaws on the floor." Kalena said to everyone. "We're going after them." Kipo said to everyone. Then the flamingo tried to get Kipo and Kalena off it.
"Whoa! Come on! Don't be such a meanie!" Kipo said to the flamingo, wrestling it. "Let me show you how it's done." Kalena said to Kipo. Kalena then roared at the flamingo, making it stop. "There you go. Nice work Kalena." Kipo said to the flamingo and Kalena. "Aren't you a little sweetie-" Kipo said to the flamingo, petting it, but one of its heads tried to bite Kipo, making Kipo stop talking. But Kalena whipped her tail at the flamingo's head, making it stop and back away its head from Kipo.
"Not to sound rude, but we all can't call it that one flamingo." Aqua said to everyone. "I'm sure we can all fit on that." Dave said to Aqua, before dying and turning back into a baby. As Mandu started to eat Dave's carcass, Lady showed up and took Dave away. "Bye Lady, thanks for all your help. And Mandu, ew! You don't know where that Dave has been." Wolf said to Lady and Mandu, with a sarcastic tune for Lady, and a grosse tune for Mandu.
"Climb on! The flamingo's fine!" Kipo said to everyone. "Uh Kipo." Kalena said to Kipo, as she noticed Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy standing nearby and looking at them with wide eyes. "We have a small problem." Kalena said to everyone.
Scarlemagne's Palace
Meanwhile in Scarlemagne's Palace, all the humans were in the lobby, with Scarlemagne apps and flamingos guarding them. In The crowd, Hoag moved to Lio. "Where are our children?" A man asked everyone, as Hoag reached Lio. "Asked Lio. His daughter led them right to us! This is Kipo's fault!" Hoag said to everyone. "No, this is my fault. The mute who took us, he has it out for me." Lio said to everyone.
"I still wonder why that is?" Javin asked Lio, as he walked to Lio, with Maira following him. "But I have more important questions. For starters, tell me what you know about Dawn?" Javin asked Lio. Lio's eyes widened a little, and Javin noticed this. "You know something. To tell me what you know." Javin said to Lio. "I want to speak to Aayan, chief of the Cheetah Boxers." Lio said to Javin, surprising Javin. "How do you know that name?!" Javin asked Lio, getting both confused and agitated.
Then Gerard came up to them. "What?" Hoag asked, before getting spray with some of Scarlemagne's perfume. Then Gerard spreadied more perfume on the humans, mind controlling them. Then Gerard was going to spray Lio, but Jester appeared and swiped the perfume bottle out of Gerard's hand.
"Uh-uh-uh… Not him." Scarlemagne said to Gerard, as he appeared next to everyone. "Hugo… I mean, Scarlemagne! This is between you and me, let them go." Lio said to Scarlemagne, making Scarlemagne laugh. "It is between you and me. And that's precisely who I won't let them go." Scarlemagne said to Lio, before taking Hoag.
"What are you going to do with them?" Lio asked Scarlemagne. "So much, dear Lio. so much." Scarlemagne said to Lio, before he danced with Hoag, and the rest of the humans started to dance. This freaked Lio out. "You'll get used to it." Javin said to Lio, with a flat look on his face.
The Burrow, Site B
Back with the gang, Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy were looking at them. "Kipo? What happened to your arm? And why does that girl have a tail, claws and scales?" Dahlia asked Kipo. "Oh, long stories. I'm part mute. And Kalena is turning into a mute because of radiation. Actually, that's all I know about the stories." Kipo said to Dahlia. "Well, I think it looks cool on you." Wyatt said to Kipo. "Well, thanks Wyatt." Kipo said to Wyatt.
"Were you about to go after the mute who took everyone? I want in." Troy said Kipo. "It's too dangerous." Kipo said to Troy. Then Lady came back, and dropped off Dave who was back in his tanage from form. Then Dave molted into his adult form, grossing Troy, Dahlia, and Asher out, but Wyatt found it interesting, before Lady left again. "Ha! This is normal for the surface." Dave said to the kids, as he whipped off some of his green liquid, and Mandu started to eat Dave's molt. "You'll get used to it." Dave said to the kids.
But Troy, Dahlia, and Asher were having a hard time not throwing up. "Yeah, they're not coming with us. They're not ready for the surface world. We need to drop them off somewhere safe." Kalena said to everyone. "I got it! Wolf, You, Benson, Aqua, and your Pokemon take them to the Timbercats. I'll take Dave, Kalena, and our Pokemon with me. We'll leave a trail of Dave for Mandu to follow. That way you can find us!" Kipo said to everyone, as she dropped some parts of Dave's molt onto the ground, as Mandu ate it.
"You can't just charge into Scarlemagne's and demand your people back!" Wolf said to Kipo. "Uh, Hello, Superpaw and Dragon girl! Do you not see Superapw or Dragon Gril." Kipo asked Wolf, showing off her right arm and pointing to Kalena. "You two don't even have a plan!" Wolf said to Kipo. "Sure we do. We walk into the front door, and beat any mute in our way." Kalena said to Wolf.
"That's not a plan." Wolf said to Kalena. "Please, Wolf, I'm going with my gut here. I need you to trust me." Kipo said to Wolf. "And you can trust me to keep Kipo safe." Kalena said to Wolf. "OK." Wolf said to Kipo and Kalena. "Yes! We're gonna get everyone back. I promise" Kipo said to everyone, as she grabbed Dave, and Virgo grabbed her. "Goodra return." Kalena said, returning Goodra to her Pokeball. Then the flamingo took off with Kipo, Kalena, Dave, and Virgo.
"Wait! What makes you think the Timbercats will take them?" Wolf asked Kipo, before she got too far away. "Because they're my friends!" Kipo said to Wolf. "OK!" Benson said to Kipo, before pulling Aqua and Wolf into a group huddle.
"There's no way the Timbercats are gonna babysit some human kids, right?" Benson asked them, before nervously laughing, that Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy, with his thumbs up. They gave him a thumbs up as well. "No way. But Kipo asked us to do it." Wolf said to everyone. "Maybe we should give them some timbercat lessons first?" Benson asked Wolf. "That is… actually kind of what I was thinking, too." Wolf said to Benson, before she found a fireman axe.
"Is that necessary? I'm sure Kipo is right and the Timbercats will take them in, just because they are friends with Kipo." Aqua said to everyone. Then some rubble fell from the ceiling, making Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy jump a little. "Yes, It's necessary." Wolf said to Aqua.
In the air, Kipo was tossing the pieces of Dave's molt, as Kalena flew the flamingo. "I bet we're getting close. Ready to kick Scarlemagnes butt?" Kipo asked everyone. "Poipole." Virgo said to Kipo. "Aw, yeah. I'mma kick his butt so hard he's gonna be like, "Where'd my butt go?" and h-" Dave said to Kipo, but Kelan interrupted her. "EVERYONE HOLD ON TIGHT!" Kalena yelled, as they noticed the Mega Monkey ahead of them.
And despite Kalena trying to dodge the Mega Monkey's attack, she still swat them out of the sky, knocking them all off the flamingo. While Virgo floated down, Kipo used her paw and Kalena used her claws to dig into a tree and spin around her for one full circle, before hitting the ground. This made the landing easier for the girls.
When they looked they saw the Mega Monkey standing near them. Then they heard a beeping sound, and some smoke appeared around the Mega Monkey's neck, making her very angry. "Whoa! Isn't that Scarlemagne's pet Mega Monkey?" Dave asked everyone, as he held onto the flamingo, and was trying to drive it.
The Mega Monkey then tried to swat Dave and the flamingo out of the sky. "He's forcing her to guard his hideout!" Kipo said to Dave, as she and Kalena stood up. "Hey! Over here, this way! Look at me! It's me. Remember?" Kipo said to the Mega Monkey, getting her attention.
"We may not have sunshine. Or starlight or weather." Kipo sang, but the Mega Monkey was about to punch her. "TURTONATOR USE SHELL TRAP!" Kalena said, letting Turtonator out of his Pokeball. "Turtonator." Turtonator said, as he turned his shell to meet the Mega Monkey's fist. And while the Mega Monkey was able to punch Turtonator into the ground, Turtonator's shell trap activated, making an explosion that hurt the Mega Monkey, making her roar in pain.
"Run." Kalean said to Kipo, after returning Turtonator to his Pokeball. "Goodra, Dragalge, Exeggutor, Druddigon help us." Kalena said, letting them out of their Pokeballs. "Goodra/ Dragalge/ Exeggutor/ Druddigon." They all said, and they appeared around the Mega Monkey. "Dragalge and Druddigon use Double Team." Kalena said to Dragalge and Druddigon.
"Dragalge/ Druddigon." The two of them said, as they made copies of themselves, and formed a circle around the Mega Monkey. This confused her for a little. "Goodra use Dragon Pulse." Goodra said, as she fired a steam of purple energy with a dragon head at the Mega Monkey. The energy steam hit the Mega Monkey in her right shoulder, dealing some damage.
"Exeggutor use Dragon Hammer on one of her feet." Kalena said to Exeggutor. "Exeggutor." Exeggutor said, before his heads glowed purple. Exeggutor then slammed his heads into the Mega Monkeys feet, making an explosion, and dealing some damage.
"Vrigo, try to stop her with a Signal Beam." Kipo said to Virgo. "Virgo." Virgo said, as she flew up to the Mega Monkey's eyes, a pink beam with green outline shapes flowing around the pink beam, hitting the Mega Monkey in the eyes. This made her roar and go crazy. The Mega Monkey swatted and slammed her hands around, hitting Goodra, Dragalge, Exeggutor, Druddigon, and Virgo, sending them flying into some trees, dealing some to all of them, with Virgo taking the least amount of damage.
"Come on. Listen!" Kipo said to the Mega Monkey, as she and Kalena ran around, dodging the Mega Monkey's attacks. "We've got each other. And that's even better." Kipo sang to the Mega Monkey, and it had a little effect on the Mega Monkey. "Together." Kalena said to Kipo.
"You don't need the sun to keep you warm. When you've got arms." Kipo and Kalena sang to the Mega Monkey. But then the Mega Monkey hit the ground behind them, making them trip.
"Kipo! Kalena! As soon as I tame this thing I'm gonna come save you two!" Dave said to Kipo and Kalena, as he tried to drive the flamingo. But he could. "You two are on your own!" Dave said to them, losing control of the flamingo. "As useful as always." Kalena said to Dave, with a sarcastic tune, as she and Kipo got up and started to run again.
"Wishes come from you. And not a random shooting star." Kipo and Kalena sang to the Mega Monkey. But then the Mega Monkey grabbed them with one of her hands. "We may not have storm clouds. But the sky's always blue." Kipo and Kalena sang to the Mega Monkey, as the Mega Monkey pulled them close to her face.
When the girls reached the Mega Monkey's face, the Mega Monkey opened her hands, and started to calm down. Then the Mega Monkey looked at them with wide eyes. Then the Mega Monkey then rubbed two of her fingers on the girl's head, one for each of them. Then the girls heard some beeping, and saw the Mega Monkey try to rip off a color with three of her hands. "Don't worry. we got you." Kipo said to the Mega Monkey, as she and Kalena ran to the Mega Monkey's neck.
And with a slash of Kipo's claws, and a slam from Kalena's tail, the collar was broken off. Then Kipo and Kalena hanged onto the Mega Monkey's fur, as the collar fell to the ground. "Yes, you're free!" Kipo said to the Mega Monkey. Then the Mega Monkey held out a hand for them, and then dropped onto the hand. The Mega Monkey held them close to hers head, nuzzling them, making Kipo laugh.
"I guess we're both a little furry." Kipo said to the Mega Monkey. "I kinda feel left out with these scales. Ahh who am I kidding. I love these scales." Kalena said to everyone, making everyone laugh a little. Then the Mega Monkey moved Kipo and Kalena away from her head. The Mega Monkey then gestured her arms to the girls, asking them to come with her.
"You want us to go with you?" Kipo asked the Mega Monkey. The Mega Monkey nodded yes. "Aww, that's sweet." Kipo said to the Mega Monkey, before noticed Dave finally getting the flamingo under control. "But we can't. We're on a mission." Kipo said to the Mega Monkey. "Yeah, we have people to save." Kalena said to the Mega Monkey.
The Mega Monkey didn't like that, and gestured to them to let her do something with them. "You can't come with us. I'm going to Scarlemagne's. If you come, he'll be able to use you as a weapon again." Kipo said to the Mega Monkey. The Mega Monkey didn't like that. "Aww, don't be sad. We have to go but…" Kipo said to the Mega Monkey, before pulling out an armband.
"Here, a little something so you know we'll always be friends." Kipo said to the Mega Monkey. "And something from me." Kalena said to the Mega Monkey, as she took off one of her scales. Then Kipo and Kalena tied the scale and armband around some of her hairs, on her upper right hand. The Mega Monkey loved this, and nuzzled them again. This made the girls laugh.
The Mega Monkey then lowered the girls. "That… was… touching…" Dave said to the girls, as he landed the flamingo next to them. "Wow, I got chills. If I could give my heart a tissue right now, I would." Dave said to the girls, as they got on the flamingo. "Just drive." Kalena said to Dave, as she turned her Pokemon to her Pokeballs, and Vrigo recovered and flew into Kipo's back.
Then Dave made the flamingo fly away, with the Mega Monkey whimpering. "Dave, Kalena, is it just me or is that Mega Monkey, I don't know, special?" Kipo asked everyone. "Definitely, most Mega's are big and stupid. Dumb as a bag of rocks." Dave said to Kipo.
"We can talk about the Mega Monkey later, we need to focus on the fight ahead." Kalena said to everyone. "Right. We're coming for you, Scarlemagne. Because of what you did to her and because of all the other bad stuff you've done." Kipo said to everyone, in her Wolf voice. "You know, I can't take you seriously when you're talking in your Wolf voice." Kalena said to Kipo.
Dog Valley
Back with the others, they were looking at a sleeping Pierre. "The only way the timbercats will protect you is if they respect you. And they'll respect anyone who can wrangle Pierre." Benson said to Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy.
"Wait, you want us to do it?" Asher asked Benson. "It'll be fine. We just gotta lure him in with his favorite dessert." Benson said to Asher, making Asher and Dahlia shudder. "Maple syrup." Benson said to Asher and Dahlia, pulling out a bottle of maple syrup. "Phew, for a second there I thought you meant we were the dessert." Asher said to Benson.
Then Wolf grabbed the maple syrup and squart most of it into Asher and Dahlia's faces. "Is this necessary?" Wyatt asked Wolf. "Yes." Wolf said to Wyatt. "It's how Kipo tamed him." Aqua said to Wyatt. "She tamed that?" Wyatt asked Aqua. "Yeah, and she loves riding it." Aqua said to Waytt. "In that case. Give me that." Wyatt said, as he took the maple syrup and walked to Pierre.
"Well he's a go-getter." Benson said to everyone. "He's probably doing this to impress Kipo." Troy said to Benson. "Why?" Wolf asked Troy. "Because he loves Kipo." Troy, Asher, and Dahlia said to Wolf, at the same time. "What?" Wolf asked them.
"Yeah, everyone knows he loves Kipo, everyone but Kipo that is. If you want proof, the reason he goes by Waytt is because that's a name Kipo came up with when he told her he wanted a better name than Woag." Troy said to Wolf. "Yeah, that boy's head over heels for Kipo." Asher said to Wolf. This made Wolf look at Wyatt with a serious face.
"Hey they're. My name is Wyatt, it's nice to meet you." Wyatt said to Pierre, spraying some of the maple syrup onto the ground. This got Pierre's attention, and he moved to the maple syrup. Pierre then started to eat the maple syrup. When Pierre was done, Wyatt put some maple syrup on his hands. Pierre then started to eat that maple syrup, making Wyatt laugh.
"That tickles." Wyatt said to Peirre, as Wolf moved close to him with a rope in her hands. "You're doing great. Now leash him." Wolf said to Waytt, tossing a rope to him, but it landed on the ground next to him. "Okay." Wyatt said as he picked up the leash and put it on Pierre. Then Wyatt got on Peirre's back. "Aww, I won't do that." Aqua said to Wyatt.
"Oh how bad can it be?" Wyatt asked Aqua, before trying to make Peirre move forward. But Peirre jumped high and came down on Troy. Then Benson pushed Troy out of the way, and to the ground. "Sorry." Waytt said to Troy, before Peirre hopped away.
That's when Troy blushed, releasing Benson was on top of him. "Us, sorry, but you don't want to be under Pierre when he comes down." Benson said to Troy, as he got up and helped Troy up, blushing as he did that.
Then they heard some rustling in the grass. This made everyone raise their guard. But that's when a Buzzwole came out of the grass. "Is that a mute?" Asher asked, getting nervous. "No, that's a Buzzwole, a Pokemon. They look big, but they're not dangerous. Maybe." Aqua said to Asher. "Maybe?!" Dahlia asked Aqua.
Then Groove started to move around while making sparkes. Then the Buzzwole started to flex. The two of them did this from a bit. "What are they doing?" Asher asked. "Communicating, I think." Aqua said to Asher.
"Communicating by flexing. That's cool!" Troy said to everyone, before flexing for form. This got Buzzwole's attention, and he moved in front of Troy, and flexed with Troy. "I like this Buzzwole." Troy said to everyone, as he stopped Flexing. Then Buzzwole looked at Troy for a few seconds. "Buzz buzz Buzzwole." Buzzwole said to Try before flexing at Troy. "I hate to interrupt the bonding sections, but we should go find Wyatt." Aqua said to everyone. "Right, let's go." Wolf said to everyone, as they ran after Wyatt, with the Buzzwole following them.
Speaking of Wyatt, he was still trying to calm Peirre down. Meanwhile, a Poipole was painting in an open area, trying to figure out what to do, by firing ink blobs at the ground and seeing if something could be made from it. That's when Pierre and Wyatt came crashing down in the open area. "Whoa! Pierre calm down." Wyatt said to Pierre, as Pierre jumped around the open area, not getting any of the ink on him, but messing up the ink blobs.
"I said, calm down!" Wyatt said, finally getting Pierre to stop. "There you go." Wyatt said to Pierre. That's when Poipole noticed all of its ink blobs were ruined, and flew at Wyatt, upset. "POIPOLE POIP POIP POIPOLE!" Poilpole said to Wyatt, getting into his face. That's when Wyatt noticed all the ruin paint blobs.
"Oh, sorry I didn't mean to. Here let me fix this." Waytt said to Poipole, getting off Pierre. "Poipole?" Poipole asked, wondering what he was thinking. Wyatt then started to use Poipole's ink and make something with it. That's when everyone found Wyatt, and watched him paint.
When Wyatt was done, everyone could see a pink outline of a ram, with blue dots in it, and lines connecting the bots. "It's Aries, it means a lot to someone I know." Wyatt said to Poipole, with everyone hearing him. "Poipole." Poipole said, as it fired out ink. Poipole then made a cat face pick outline, and the eyes were blue dots and its smile was four dots connected by a line. This also got Wyatt a little messy. "I see why Kipo like a creature like you." Wyatt said to Poipole, before they both laughed.
"You weren't kidding. He is in love with Kipo." Aqua said to everyone. "I don't like him." Wolf said to everyone. "I can't tell if that's just you. Or you're being an overprotective sister." Aqua said to Wolf, as they all walked out to Wyatt.
"It looks like you made a friend." Troy said to Wyatt, as Wyatt noticed the Buzzwole following Troy. "It looks like I'm not the only one." Wyatt said to Troy. That's when Troy noticed Buzzwole following him. "Yeah, I guess I did. Somehow." Troy said to Wyatt. "So what are you going to name them?" Aqua asked Wyatt and Troy.
"Name them?" Wyatt and Troy asked Aqua. "yeah, there's a lot of Buzzwole and some Poipole out their. So giving them a name doesn't hurt." Aqua said to Troy and Wyatt. "Well, I guess I can call this little guy Cuddy. I think that's a fun name. What do you think?" Wyatt asked Poipole. "Poipole." Poipole, now Cuddy said to Wyatt, liking it.
"And I think I'll name this guy Daven, after Dave. because he looks just like Dave after he saved us." Troy said to everyone. "Great, more full to fill Dave's ego." Aqua said to everyone. Then Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy talked to each other, thinking how cool Troy and Wyatt were with Cuddy and Daven. Then Pierre noticed the maple syrup on Asher and Dahlia, and licked it off them, making everyone laugh.
"I guess they're ready." Benson said to Benson and Aqua. "Maybe. We're not a terrible team after all." Wolf said to Benson and Aqua. Benson then gave Wolf a fist bump, but she just poked the lower part with her finger. "I still think this training was unnecessary." Aqua said to everyone, before they moved to the Timbercat Village.
Scarlemagne's Palace
As the moon started to rise and night covered the sky, Kipo was now driving the flamingo, and couldn't control it. "Whoa! Slow down." Kipo said to the flamingo. "I told you should have let me drive." Kalena said to Kipo. Then they noticed the massive tree in front of them.
"Ah! Tree, tree, tree!" They all screamed, before Kipo crashed them into some of the tree's lower brush. But it didn't hurt them, and they crashed into Scarlemagne's Palace, luckily no one was hurt. "All right, Scarlemagne! Give me back my people or I'm going to introduce your face to my fist!" Kipo said, as they stood up, and she tried to act tough with Dave.
"Ah Kipo, no one's here." Kalena said to Kipo, as they noticed the place was deserted. "Where is everyone?" Kipo asked everyone, while whispering. "I don't know, but I don't like it." Kalena said to Kipo.
Ratlands
And where they were was in the sky above Ratlands. The rats noticed the army of flamingos flying towards them. "He's back." Amy said to Mia and Brad. "I'll take care of this." Mia said to Brad and Amy. "You two start getting everyone out just in case." Amy said Amy and Brad.
Timbercat Village
With Wolf and the others. Wolf was staring at an axe, on the outskirts of the village. "OK, time for your next lesson." Wolf said to Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy. Wolf then copped a log in half. "Wolf's right. We can't send you to the Timbercats without any wood-chopping skills. Now chop." Benson said to everyone. Troy took the axe. Then Troy tried to cope a log after twirling the axe, but only caused a small cut.
"Decent." Wolf said to Troy. "But your showmanship gets an A." Benson said to Troy. Then Wyatt took the axe. Wyatt swung it down, but he could barely cut it. "You need a lot of work." Wolf said to Wyatt. Then Asher took the axe and left a deep cut in the log. "Not bad?" Wolf said to Asher. Then Dahlia took the axe. And she cut the log in one strike. Then Dahlia started to cope up the log. "You… stupid… piece… of… wood." Dahlia asid to the log.
"Should we stop her?" Aqua asked everyone, with everyone, but Wolf, giving Dahlia a worried look. Wolf on the other hand gave her a proud look. "Giver her a minute. It's been a day. I… I think she needs this." Asher said to Aqua.
This copping got the attention of two Kartana that were flying by. "Kartana?" the Kartanas said, as they flew down to Dahlia. "What the?" Dahlia asked, as the Kartana circled around her. Then the Kartana's slashed up the log, turning it into dust. "Hey I was copping that." Dahlia said to the Kartana. "Kartana." One of the Kartanas said, before chopping down another tree. "Thank you." Dahlia said to the Kartana, before she and the Kartana started to chop the tree.
"Kartana." The other Kartana said, trying to join them. "Maybe you should give them a moment." Asher said to the Kartana. "Kartana." Kartana said, with a fine tune of voice. "Hey sis, I just realized we have Pokemon now. What should we name these girls?" Dahlia asked Asher, taking a break from chopping. "How about Ori for mine, and Gami for yours?" Asher asked Dahlia. "I like it." Dahlia said to Asher, before going back to chopping. "Well, having Karatanas will probably help." Wolf said to everyone.
Scarlemagne's Palace
With Kipo, Kalena, Dave, and Virgo, they were moving through the place, quitely. And saw Gerard and Lemieux guarding Lio, with Lio cage in an old store. "Dad?" Kipo asked. "Okay, we can beat them. We just need to…" Kalena said to everyone, but Kip then charged out ahead of everyone, with her claws out. "Keep the element of surprise." Kalena said, finishing her sentence.
"Kipo?" Lio asked, as they noticed her charging at Gerard and Lemieux. But Gerard and Lemieux dodge Kipo's attack, and Kipo slammed into the bars. "No!" Lio said, grabbing the bars.
Then Gerard and Lemieux pulled out some perfume bottles and soreadied Kipo. "No!" Lio yelled. "That stinks." Kipo said, unaffected by the perfume. "Wha.. why isn't this working?" Gerard asked Lemieux, before Kipo used her paw to knock the perfume bottle out of Lemieux's hands. "Uh, why is her hand a paw?" Lemieux asked Gerard.
But before Gerard could answer, Kalena jumped onto Gerard's back, sinking her claws into his back. Then Kalena bit into Gerard's left shoulder. This made Gerard scream in pain, and he tried to get Kalena off him. Lemieux was about to help, but Virgo flew up into Lemieux's face, and fired a pink beam with green outline shapes flowing around the pink beam, hitting Lemieux in the face, making her go blind a little.
Then Kipo punched Gerard in the face with her paw, and with the pain from Kalena, Gerard was at his limit and started to get wobbly. Kalena then jumped off Gerard, making him fall on top of Lemieux.
"Kipo, we need to talk about you rushing into battle. I know I'm not one to talk about rushing into battle. But you barely know how to fight, you need to practice your fighting moves more if you want to fight." Kalena said to Kipo, as Kipo tore the bars to her father. "Dad!" Kipo said to Lio, before hugging Lio. "I doubt she's even listening to me." Kalena said to everyone, as they followed Kipo into Lio's cage.
Then Lio offered them into the hug. While Dave and Virgo jumped into it, Kalena was hesitant at first, but gave in and joined the hug. The hug was warm and everyone relaxed. "Feels like it should." Dave said to everyone. "We totally took those guys out!" Kipo said to everyone, as they all broke the hug.
"They never stood a chance! Not against Captain Jaguar, Wild Dragon, Maiden, and Mr. Gorgeous" Dave said to everyone. "Please tell me those are our code names?" Kalena asked Dave. "I'm working on our names still." Dave said to Kalena. "Kipo. You got lucky. You were very brave… but very lucky. If not for Virgo and this girl things could have gone much worse." Lio said to Kipo. "At least he agrees with me." Kalena said to everyone.
Timbercat Village
Back with others, Wyatt was driving Pierre, with Asher, Dahlia, Cuddy, Ori, and Gami riding it, and everyone else walking. Then Troy stopped Benson. "Be honest. We don't stand a chance with these Timbercats, do we?" Troy asked Benson. "What? No… I mean, you do! It's just-" Benson said to Troy, but Wolf interrupted him.
"Outside of us, humans and mutes usually do not go together." Wolf said to Troy, as Mandu nuzzled Wolf's leg. "Stop." Wolf quietly said to Mandu, pushing Mandu away from her. "Well, how did you and Dave become friends?" Troy asked Benson. "We bonded over food." Benson said to Troy, before gasping.
"That's it! Flapjacks!" Benson said to everyone, before digging through his bag. "Flapjacks?" Troy asked Benson. "Yup. Timbercats love them. Lucky for you, I have the best recipe in the world." Benson said to Troy, holding up a pan and bottle. "Does your recipe have flour, milk, and eggs?" Troy asked Benson.
"Yes! Do you mix it all together in a bowl?" Benson asked Troy. "That's my favorite way to mix it!" Troy said to Benson, with everyone else looking at them. "Me too! But the secret…" Benson said to Troy. "Is in the flip!" Benson and Troy said at the same time, making them chuckle. "Ah, we both like flapjacks." Benson said to Troy.
"I hate to ruin the moment. But…" Aqua said to Benson, talking the pan and bottle out of Benson's head, and putting them back in Benson's backpack. "Need I remind you what happened last time you made Flapjacks from the Timbercats. If we don't want to die by the Timbercats, no one talks about Flapjacks." Aqua said to everyone.
Then everyone chuckled a little, and Troy moved to his friends, as Benson and Aqua moved to Wolf. "They're ready for the Timbercats." Benson said to everyone. "Let's hope it's enough." Wolf said to everyone, before fist bumping Benson. "Just don't talk about Flapjacks while we're there." Aqua said to Benson.
Ratlands
In Ratland Amy and Brad were getting everyone out, while Mia stood in front of the flamingos. "Attention Ratlan patrons: Please remain calm and find the nearest exit. Especially if you're a human. Thank you! Meric beaucoup." Amy said into a megaphone, with her whispering the human part.
Then Scarlemagne landed the flamingo in front of Mia, Brad and Amy, with Javin, Jester, and Maira in the car with him. "Scarlemagen, you didn't pay the entrance fee." Brad said to Scarlemagne, before whistling. This made five Xurkitree start to attack Scarlemagne.
"Blacephalon." Jester said, jumping off the flamingo and got ready to fight the five Xurkitree. "Xurkitree." All five of the Xurkitree said, as they fired bolts of electricity at Jester. But Jester dogged the electricity like it was nothing. How he did it was by moving around all over the place, acting like this was a show.
Then the five Xurkitree charged at Jester, with their fist covered in electricity. But then Jester's head started to glow light pink, and a pink outline appeared in the five Xurkitree, stopping them in their tracks. Then Jester lifts up the five Xurkitree into the air, and slam them into the ground. Jester did this multiple times.
Then he stopped and let the five Xurkitree get up. But as they got up, Jester started to spin his head, then fired a steam of fire from his head, making it like a fire sprinkler, hitting all of the Xurkitree and sending them flying. All the Xurkitree crashed into the ground.
And while four of them couldn't get up. One of them did. "Xurkitree." The Xurkitree said, as it charged up a massive amount of electricity in a sphere. "Xurkitree!" Xurkitree said, as it fired the sphere at Jester. Jester made its head glow and fired it at the sphere. The two spheres meet half way and explode, realseding a massive amount of electricity and fire.
When the dust cleared, Jester was in the Xurkitree face. Then another head pooped out from his hole. Then Jester made that head glow, and it exploded, right in Xurkitree's face, dealing a massive amount of damage, and sending it flying into a booth, destroying the booth.
"Spark!" Mia said, rushing to the Xurkitree side, and started to dig the Xurkitree out of the rubble. Scarlemagne then started to howl in excitement for Jester victory, and jumped all over the car. "Boss, calm down. You're getting too excited." Javin said to Scarlemagne. "Oh I am. Because Jester just ruined these rats' fun." Scarlemagne said to Javin, as the flamingo they were riding ripped up a sign that promoted peace.
"Now, if you'll excuse me. I'll just take whatever I please for my new empire." Scarlemagne said to the rats. "What empire?" Amy asked Scarlemagne. "So glad you asked!" Scarlemagne said to Amy. "You see, I have a vision, to transform the ruins of a failed society into this…" Scarlemagne said to everyone, as he pulled out a flier of some new city, with some of his grunts vocalizing.
"Lonely, isn't it? I call it, Aurum." Scarlemagne said to everyone. "A golden city of dreams!" the grunts sang. "Where mutes will unite and reign supreme." Scarlemagne said to everyone. "Reign supreme." The grunst sang. "Under me, of course." Scarlemagne said to everyone.
"Reign supreme over what?" Brad asked Scarlemagne. "Humans. The vermin you are so fond of granting safe haven to. A city like this will require a lot of blood, sweat, and tears. I'll do the sweat. Humans will do the blood and tears." Scarlemagne said to everyone.
"And what about the Pokemon? What will you do to them?" Mia asked Scarlemagne, helping Spark move to Brad and Amy. "I have no interest in them. They can either join us, or work with the humans. Their choice." Scarlemagne said to Mia. "Young Cheetah Boxer. I heard what happened to your people, but Aayan was my friend, and he wouldn't want this." Mia said to Javin.
"He also didn't want to die." Javin said to Mia, not looking at Mia. "Maybe, he was my student and friend. He came to me, asking me to teach him the way of peace that we have here. He wanted this for the world." Mia said to Javin. "Well, I'm bringing that peace." Javin said to Mia. "This isn't the peace he wanted. He wanted everyone to enjoy the Lights glow. Not just the Mutes." Mia said to Javin. Javin said nothing, and kept looking away from Mia, not wanting to continue talking.
"I think that's enough talking." Scarlemagne said to everyone, before honking his horn, making Jester get back in the car and making his grunts rip Ratland apart. "You're running our park!" Amy said to Scarlemagne, as the rats cried. "Unfortunately, in order to create, one must first destroy." Scarlemagne said to Amy. "You don't have to destroy anything. Please young Cheetah Boxer, help us." Mia said to Scarlemagne and asked Javin. Javin just looked away again, not wanting to look at Mia, and felt guilt.
Timbercat Village
With Wolf and everyone with her. They entered the Timbercat Village, and some Timbercats led them into the mess hall, where the Timbercats were having a good time. The sight of the hall and the Timbercats having fun, Asher, Dahlia, Wyatt, and Troy found it amazing. Then they were all led to the middle of the room, where Yumyan was playing with his axe guitar. Then he noticed everyone.
"Pierre! You've returned!" Yumyan said to Pierre, before snapping his fingers. But Pierre then nuzzled Wyatt. Yumyan snapped again, but Pierre didn't move. "He's acting strange. What have you done to him?" Yumyan asked everyone. Then two cats pushed Wolf, Aqua, and Benson to Yumyan.
"Nothing, Mt. Hammerpaw, sir. He just made a new friend." Benson said to Yumyan. "With this human?" Yumyan asked Benson, making Benson laugh nervously. "Yumyan Hammerpaw, meet Wyatt, Troy, Dahlia, Asher, and their Pokemon, Cuddy, Daven, Ori, and Gami. we were actually wondering if they could stay with you for a while." Benson asked Yumyan.
"They're not even useless. Dahlia can use an Axe. Wyatt has mastered riding Pierre. Asher can help take care of Pierre. And Troy makes amazing flapjacks." Wolf said to Yumyan, making Aqua nervous and worried. Then the timbercats all started to boo and talked about last time. "I told you not to mention those." Aqua said to Wolf. "This time no hairballs. We promise." Benson said to the Timebrcats.
The Timbercats then started to calm down a little. "Look, we know this is a lot to ask but they have a Timbercat's courage. These kids lost everything. They were from Kipo's burrow and Scarlemagne destroyed their home and took their parents. They've never even been to the surface before today. But they didn't melt down into a puddle of tears. They-." Benson said to everyone, but someone crying interrupted him.
"They're so brave!" Yumyan said to everyone, crying a little. Molly rolled her eyes, and walked to Wolf, Benson, and Aqua. "Whether they live like Timbercats or not, we will happily take care of White, Boy, Talia, Dasher, and their Pokemon Funny, Dive, Our, and Gram.
"Uh, that's not their.. Wait, really?" Benson asked Molly. "Of course. We would have done it just because they're friends of Kipo." Molly said to everyone. "I told you so." Aqua said to Wolf and Benson. "Thank you. We'll come back for them as soon as we rescue their parents." Wolf said to Molly. "We promise to keep them safe!" Yumyan said to them, while snuffing.
"Good luck. Scarlemagne isn't an easy foe to defeat." Molly said to everyone. "We know. He has a mind controlled human army now. You might want to have your axes on guard." Benson said to Molly. "We always do." Molly said, as she and a few other Timbercat's pulled out their axe and held it into the air. "But now we'll have our backup axes on guard as well." Molly said, as she and a few other Timbercat's pulled out another axe.
Then the Timbercats welcomed Wyatt, Troy, Dahlia, Asher, and their Pokemon, Cuddy, Daven, Ori, and Gami into the village. And while most of them joined the Timbercats, Troy moved to Benson. "Thanks… for everything." Troy said to everyone. "No prob. And when we get back, you and I are gonna talk flapjacks versus pancakes. Different or the same?" Benson said to Troy. "Uh…" Troy said to Benson. "The same?" The two of them said at the same time.
"Guess we'll have to fund something else to talk about." Benson said to Troy. "It's a date." Troy said to Benson, before kissing Benson on the check. Then Troy joined his friends, leaving Benson, who was still trying to process what just happened, and placed a hand on his check. "Be careful out there." Troy said to everyone, as he and the others reached Yumyan. "Aw, come here, you guys!" Yumyan said to them before giving them a big hug. "Yumyan hugs you all!" Yumyan said to them, as they laughed.
Scarlemagne's Palace
With Kipo, Lio, Kalena, Dave, and Virgo, they took cover in Lio's cage. "What do we do next? I'm basically invincible." Kipo asked Lio. "You're not. And you need to be careful. There's something I need to tell you. I should've told you a long time ago." Lio said to Kipo. "Tell me what?" Kipo asked Lio. "Can't you two talk about this later. Getting out of here is our first priority." Kalena said to Lio and Kipo, as she keeped an eye out.
"No it can't." Lio said to Kalena. "Kipo. Your mother and I, we infused your DNA with a mutagen so you could become a Mega. That's why Scarlemagne's pheromone doesn't work on you. It only works on primates and you are more than human. You'll become a Mega Jaguar." Lio said to Kipo, surprising the girls.
"What? I… I'm going to be a Mega Jaguar? Because you and mom infused my DNA?" Kipo asked Lio, looking at her body. "That is… so cool! Tell me how to do it! I mena, then I can get us out of here!" Kipo said to Lio, standing up in excitement. "We could ride Kipo to safety!" Dave said to Lio.
Then Kipo remembered something. "Wait! First, Dad, you said to Scarlemange that I have a twin sister. What happened to her?" Kipo asked Lio. "We tried multiple animals to see which one would you would be. And to our surprise, we had two kids. You and your sister. But I lost her shortly after losing you mother." Lio said to Kipo. "So that's why you're sad on my birthday." Kipo said to Lio. "Yes." Lio said, as he and Kipo hung their heads in despair for a second.
"Okay, then tell me how to turn into the Mega Jaguar?" Kipo asked Lio. "You're not ready yet. Before I lost your mom, we learned that if it's not done properly, you could get lost in the transformation and never come back. As soon as we get out of here, I'm going to take you to the Chevre Sisters. They can help train you to control this." Lio said to Kipo.
"They can also help you. I don't know how you're mutating, but I'm sure they can help you." Lio said to Kalena. "Thanks, but I'm figuring it out myself." Kalena said to Lio. "Come on. Think about it. Hero training you and me. Nothing can stop us." Kipo said to Kalena, wrapping her paw around Kalena's shoulder. "Wait, who are the Chevre Sisters?" Kipo asked Lio.
Then they heard squawking, and they noticed some large apes taking away their flamingo. "There goes our ride." Dave said to everyone. "Up there! We can climb out!" Lio said to everyone, looking at the tree. "Or, we can get our ride back." Kipo said to Lio, before charging out and attacking the apes. "Kipo, no!" Lio said to Kipo, as everyone ran after her.
"Step away from the flamingo and no one gets hurt!" Kipo said to the apes, pooping out her claws. And while the apes let the flamingo go, they charged at Kipo. "What did I say about the element of surprise?" Kalena asked Kipo, as she and Lio reached her and grabbed her. "This is not the training I was talking about!" Lio said to Kipo. "And my Pokemon are too hurt to help us fight. So it's time to run!" Kalena said to Kipo and Lio, as they started to run.
Then Dave forced himself into his muscle form. "I did it again!" Dave said to everyone, as she started to fly. "Dave, catch!" Kalena said to Dave, as she used her tail to whip Lio and Kipo into the air, allowing Dave to catch them. But Dave did go down a little, from the weight of the two of them and getting a grip on them. With Kalena, she ran up some stars, and was able to jump onto Dave's back. This made Dave sink again.
This gave the apes a chance to grab them, but Dave started to fly, so they could only get their hands on Lio's right leg. The apes then pulled Lio down to them. "Dad! No!" Kipo said to Lio, before letting go of Dave, and started to fight the apes. "Poipole!" Virgo said, as she tried to help Kipo. but one of the apes hit Virgo, sending her flying into the ceiling, dealing a lot of damage. As Virgo fell down, Kalena caught her.
"Dave hold onto Virgo and my tail." Kalena said to Kipo, as she passed Virgo to one of Dave's hands and made Dave use his other three hands to grab onto her tal. Kalena then jumped off Dave's back, and landed on the ground, with Dave still holding onto her tail. Kalena then ran to Kipo.
With Kipo, she was able to force a couple apes off Lio, and grabbed him. "We're not leaving you!" Kipo said to Lio, with tears in her eyes. "Get her out of here!" Lio said to Kalena and Dave, as the apes forced Kipo off Lio. "Guys don't listen to him!" Kipo said to Dave and Kalena, as Kalena wrapped her arms and legs around Kipo, trapping Kipo. "Dave get us out of here!" Kalena said to Dave. Dave then started to fly them out of there.
"Dad!" Kipo said to Lio. "You know where to go!" Lio said to Kipo "Dad! No!" Kipo said to Lio. "Kalena let me go! Kalena! KALENA!" Kipo yelled, trying to break out of Kalena's hold. Lio heard Kipo yelling, and his eyes widened in disbelief. "Kalena?! It's not possible?!" Lio said, wondering if he heard Kipo right.
Ratlands
In Ratland, the place was trashed, all that was left of it was rubble. Mia, Amy, and Brad looked at the ruins of their home in horror, even Spark was on his knees in despair. And Scarlemagne, Javin, Jester, Maira, and their flamingo, with the out of their flamingo, were on the gates above and behind them.
"Your contributions to Aurum are much appreciated. Oh, and one more thing." Scarlemagne said to the rats, before snapping his fingers, making his flamingo go and grabbed two humans that were hiding in the rubble. "Humans had their chances. They ran the world into the ground when they were on top!" Scarlemagne said, as pulled out his perfume bottle, and spread it to the humans, mind controlling them.
"And they've been oppressing mutes and animal kind for thousands of years!" Scarlemagne said, before wheezing. "Boss." Javin said to Scarlemagne, making Scarlemagne calm down. "But then the Light drove these humans out and left the world for us." Scarlemagne said to everyone.
"So, boo yourselves." Scarlemagne said to the humans. "Boo, humans! They're the worst!" The humans said. "As for you three, turning your backs on fellow mutes to provide humans with a safe zone?" Scarlemagne said to the rats, as he, Javin, Jester, and Maria got into the flamingo's car.
"That, I cannot abide. You will serve as an example to any mute who disobeys me." Scarlemagne said to the rats, before making the flamingo fly into the sky a little. That's when he pulled out a vial of explosive nectar, surprising everyone. "Is that explosive nectar?" Brad asked Scarlemange. "I'd run if I were you." Scarlemange said to the rats.
"Scarlemange, places don't do this. You've already destroyed our home. Isn't that enough?" Mia asked Scarlemange. "Yeah boss. Is this really necessary? We're leaving them in ruins and taking everything. I think that's a perfect example of what happens when they disobey you." Javin asked Scarlemange.
"No this is the perfect example of what happens if they disobey." Scarlemange said to Javin, before tossing the vial of explosive nectar. "No! Wait!" Javin said to Scarlemagne reached his hand out trying to get the vial of explosive nectar. But Scarlemange made the flamingo fly away, before Javin could stop the vial of explosive nectar.
Las Vasta Forest
With Wolf, Benson, Aqua, Mandu, and their Pokemon, Mandu was leading the way through the forest, eating the parts of Dave, enjoying it. "Mandu, can you at least pretend like you're not enjoying it so much?" Wolf asked Mandu. Then they all heard some rusling ahead of them. "Look out!" Dave said before flying past them with Kipo, Kalena, and Virgo still in his hands and crashed behind them.
Luckily the only one hurt from the crash was Dave, and he only lost the tip of his wing. As they got up, everyone ran to them. "What happened back there?" Benson asked everyone. "Ask Kipo, after all her recklessness made us lose both her father and our flamingo." Kalena said to everyone. "Kipo what happened?" Aqua asked Kipo.
"I just charged in there with my stupid paw. I was so sure I could get everybody out, and I barely got out myself." Kipo said to Aqua. "Kalena, what about you? You and your Pokemon were with her? Why didn't you help?" Wolf asked Kalena, as everyone but Kipo stood up.
"First, all my Pokemon were hurt, from both fighting Javin and the Mega Monkey, and needed to rest. Second, Kipo is the reason we failed. She kept ruining our element of surprises, and picking a fight she clearly couldn't win with a street fight." Kalena said to Wolf, making Kipo lower her head
"So now what? We wait for everyone to be in better shape and try again?" Aqua asked everyone. "My dad wants me to become a Mega Jaguar and save everyone." Kipo said to everyone, surprising everyone. "A Mega Jaguar. Can you really transform into that?" Aqua asked Kipo. "Yes, but how can I do that when it seems like every instinct I have is wrong?" Kipo said to Aqua and asked everyone, burying her head into her legs.
No one knew what to say, no one but Kalena that is. "Kipo your instincts aren't wrong, they're just young. When I was growing up, I learned that sometimes you have to learn the hard way. You trust your instincts, but after you fail you have to try something new. For example you learned the hard way, that you can't just rush in paw blazing. You need a plan and/or fighting experience." Kalena said to Kipo.
"Kalena's right. You were right about the Timbercats. They took in Troy, Wyatt, Dahlia, Asher, and their Pokemon, Cuddy the Poipole, Daven the Buzzwole, and Ori and Gami the Kartanas." Wolf said to Kipo. "They got pokemon now?" Kalena asked Wolf. "Yes." Benson said to Kalena.
"Kipo, your friends are safe because you made the right call there." Benson said to Kipo, as Kipo's friends and their Pokemon all got settled in the village. "And freeing that Mega Monkey? You didn't have to do that. But you did. And it was the right thing to do." Dave said to Kipo, as the Mega Monkey was in the city, looking at the armband and scale tied to her upper right hand.
This all made Kipo cry a little. She wiped her tears away and stood up. Then everyone did a big group hug. "Thanks, guys." Kipo said to everyone, before they broke the hug. "No prob. Now, what's this you were saying about turning into a Mega Jaguar?" Benson asked Kipo, still trying to figure out what she meant by that.
But before anyone could say anything, a massive explosion caught their attention. Even though it was far away, they could see the flames and feel the heat of the explosion. A few seconds later, flamingos started to fly over their heads, and they could see the flamingos carrying all the stuff they took from Ratland.
"Ratland." Benson said to everyone, as the humans riding the flamingos. "Those are my people." Kipo said to everyone. "We have to move. Now!" Kalena said to everyone, as she forced everyone to move before the flamingo and the people riding them would notice them.
Meanwhile, Scarlemagne was leading the flock, howling very loudly, and shaking the car a little, loving how it all turned out. Jester and Maria were the same. But Javin, he wasn't taking this well, he looked at fire, his eyes widened, and terrible memories flooded his mine. Needless to say, Javin was on the edge of losing it.
While all that was going on Emilia, Greta, and another cloaked figure saw this from the top of a far away building. "We have to stop him." Emilia said to Greta and the cloaked figure, staring at the flock of flamingos.
