Hello everyone, sorry for the wait, school and my other stories have been taking most of my time. Now this is a chapter I've been waiting to do for a while, and I hope you like it. Also to answer a question from another story, I use gang to mean every member of the main team, Meaning Kipo, Kalena, Aqua, Wolf, Dave, Benson, and their Pokemon are in that part. It saves me the time of writing all of their names when they do something as a group. Now onto adventure 12.
Adventure 12
The Goat Cheese Prophecy And The Light of Change
The Past
In the past, Lio was running away from the giant scorpion, with Kipo in his arms, and after losing Kalena. Lio was freaking out as he ran around, and this somehow made it so the scorpion was able to follow him. Lio then ran into a dead end with the scorpion blocking his way. The scorpion then used one of its pincers to pind Lio into the wall.
It got ready to strike. But that's when baby Kipo started to growl and her paw came out. Kipo then scratched the scorpion's pincer with her paw, and got it off Lio. This gave Lio the chance to run and get away, with Kipo crying. Once he was out of reach, the scorpion gave up. Not that Lio noticed. He just kept running.
He ran into some woods, and when he reached a fancy old sign with an eye on it, he finally noticed the scorpion was nowhere to be found. This would have made him relax, but all he felt was regret. Regret that while Kipo was safe, he lost Kalena. Lio then tried to calm
"My life just got saved by a baby. If only I wasn't so weak. Then you'd have your sister." Lio said to Kipo, as he put his hand in Kipos hands. Kipo closed her paw around Lio's hands, digging her claws into Lio's hand. "Ow-ow-ow Put it away. Put it away!" Lio said to Kipo. Kipo then let go. "Can you put it away?" Lio asked Kipo. Kipo then went back to napping. "Don't worry, we'll figure it out. Now what do you say we go back and try to find your sister Kalena hopley she's still alive. Boop." Lio said to Kipo, before tapping Kipo's nose.
But then he heard some rumbling. This got him worried. That's when a giant pig ran out of nowhere and ate Lio and Kipo. but it didn't swallow them. It just kept them in its mouth. While in the mouth, it suddenly became really bright, lighting up the dark mouth from the outside, and even the pig suleed a little from the light and was disoriented from it. Then the light faded away.
Ratland
Back in the present, the gang was outside the burning ruins of Ratland. "I can't believe Scarlemagne smoked Ratland." Bensoin said to everyone. "Aw, man, now I'll never get ride the heart swallowing, spine cracking, knee dislocated teacups." Dave said to everyone.
"I'm pretty sure you're the only one that would survive that ride." Aqua said to Dave, with her giving Dave a "Are you serious" look on her face. "She's right. You were never gonna ride that." Benson said to Dave, making Dave scoff. "Yeah I was." Dave said to Benson.
"I'm sorry, Dave. if i could've turned into the Mega Jaguar, I could've saved Ratland." Kipo said to Dave. "Yeah, well, I'm missing out because of you and not because I'm scared." Dave said to Kipo, before shaking.
"Kipo. Even if you became a Mega Jaguar. I doubt you could have done much to stop him." Kalena said to Kipo. "What makes you say that?" Kipo asked Kalena. "You have little control over your instincts. Chances are you would have lost, by a improvised plan from Scarlemagne." Kalena said to Kipo.
"I could have done something." Kipo said to Kalena. "No you couldn't." Kalena said to Kipo. "You know you're one to talk, you're always looking for a fight." Kipo said to Kalena, getting mad. "At least I know what I can do, and don't rush into a fight that makes me lose somebody I care about." Kalena said to Kipo.
This made Kipo charged at Kalena. But Kalena dodged Kipo, and used her tail to send Kipo flying back a little, making Kipo lay on the ground. Kipo then got up, as Kalena walked to her, slowly, her hands behind her back. "Girls stop it." Aqua said to Kipo and Kalena, as one of Kalena's Pokeballs opened up. That's when Kommo-o appeared in front of everyone, and kept them back.
Kipo then charged at Kalena, and tried to swat her with her paw. But Kalena was able to dodge Kipo's paw, and was able to use her right foot, and hit the back of Kipo's knees, forcing Kipo to the ground. As Kipo tried to get up, Kalena flipped her and made Kipo land on her back. And before Kipo could get up, Kalena sat on her, her tail keeping Kipp pind, and her claws near Kipo's neck.
"See, you're not ready. You don't know how to fight." Kalena said to Kipo, pulling back her claws. "Kipo, Kalena. Enough. Now's not the time to be fighting with each other." Aqua said to Kalena, separating the girls.
"Kipo, there's nothing you could've done." Wolf said to Kipo. "And Kalena, give her a break, she's having a bad time." Aqua said to Kalena, as everyone heard a can rattle. That's when they noticed Benson had the spray cheese out. "This is for you, Ratland. Oh, it's just too much." Benson said, as he sniffed and left some cheese.
That's when Mia, Amy, Brad, and Spark the Xurkitree dorve up in their van, with Spark on the cart, and the vane, smokey and burned a little. "Bonjour! And welcome to vanland!" Amy said to everyone. "It's a work in progress. But we have one ride! It's-it's this." Brad said to everyone. "But at least we're still around." Mia said to everyone.
"Yeah, uh-huh. To be celar, the teacups were destroyed, right?" Dave asked the Rats. Aqua then hit Dave. "The tea cups are not the important part." Aqua said to Dave. "Mia! Brad! Amay! And one of your Xurkitree! I'm so glad you guys got away." Kipo said to them. "Yeah, just barely. Apparently, Scarlemagne does not like mutes mixing with humans. If it wasn't for Mia, things could have been worse." Brad said to Kipo.
"It's alway smart planning for the worst, while hoping for the best." Mia said to Kipo. "I'm sorry about Ratland. I know it was your home" Kalena said to them. "It may be gone, but the rest of our kind and the Xurkitree are safe. Scattered, but safe. It will take time for us to regroup. But we'll have to wait until Scarlemagne is gone before that. And once he's gone, we'll reforge Ratland." Mia said to everyone.
"But it's OK. because now our work, our home, and our car are all the same thing! It's… it's this. Uh… it's still this, the van." Brad said to everyone. "Can we take you anywhere?" Amy asked everyone. "Actually, yes! We're trying to get to the Chevre Sisterhood. They need to help me control this. And Kalena's new tail." Kipo said to the rats.
"Oh, I'm so glad you said something. I noticed but I didn't want to be rude." Brad said to Kipo. "The Chevre Sisterhood. Oh, you mean the bind goats! We've only heard of them. They've very mysterious. We can't take you to them, but we can get you close." Amy said to everyone. "Great!" Kipo said to everyone.
"Before we go. You should know that my friend Aayan one told me that The Chevre Sisterhood are creatures of the mind, and they think and act completely different from everyone, so things will be wired." Mia said to Kipo. "Good to know." Kalena said, as they got into the van, and the Pokemon onto the van.
"Entrance fee." Amy said to Benson, as Brad opened his mouth. "Oh, right!" Benson said, as he sprayed some cheese into Brad's mouth. Then Amy and Mia wanted some, so Benson gave them some cheese. With that Brad started to run at high speed, even with everyone in the van and on the cart.
After a bit Dave stuck his head out the Van. "Ooh, it's official! My favorite Vanland ride is "Van: The RIde"!" Dave said, before Brad stopped and Dave was sent flying into a fancy old sign with an eye on it. "And that's why you keep your hands and feet inside the ride at all times.
"Here we are, Eyeball Woods!" Brad said to everyone. "Remember, you don't find them, they find you." Amy said to everyone, as everyone got out of the van. "If they find you, would you mind bringing us some of their famous cheese?" Amy asked everyone. "I'll take Havarti!" Brad said to everyone. "Oh, and from what my friend Aayan told me. When they find you, try not to panic." Mia said to everyone, before the rats drove away.
"That's not alarming at all." Aqua said to everyone. "So, what do we do now? Just sit here and wait?" Benson asked everyone, as he and Dave sat down next to each other. "Will you get up?" Aqua asked them, as she stood behind them, and got them to stand. "Gah! This is so boring!" Benson said to everyone.
"I'm sure The Chevre Sisters will find us in no time." Kipo said to everyone, before a pink outline appeared on everyone. And before they could react, the giant pigs came up out of nowhere, ate the humans, made Wolf drop her stick, and stopped past the Pokemon, with two Balcephalon riding the pigs. Then the Balcephalons fired a pulse of calming pink energy, and the pokemon fell asleep,
The only one not eaten or knocked out was Mandu, who tried using Wolf's stick to force the pigs to let everyone go. But the pigs didn't feel it, and gave Mandu a look at said follow. And Mandu did, but she wasn't happy about this.
Scarlemagne's Palace
In Scarlemagne's Palace, Scarlemagne was painting, with Lemieux holding the painting. "Tell me, Lemieux. Which one of us is more handsome?" Scarlemagne asked Lemieux, as he finished a portrait of himself. "Uh… I, Uh… you, sir!" Lemieux said to Scarlemagne, not knowing what to say. "So you find my painting subpar?" Scarlemagne asked Lemieux. "No, no, no! It's exquisite! It makes you look… dignified?" Lemieux said to Scarlemagne, trying to save her skin.
"You don't find me dignified in real life?" Scarlemagne asked Lemieux. Lemieux didn't know what to say. "It's terrible!" Scarlemagne said before crying out and grabbing the painting. And before he could rip it up, Jester used Psychic to take it away. "Blacephalon. Bla bla bla blacephalon." Jester said to Scarlemagne, gestring his hand to the painting and him. "You think it's perfect?" Scarlemagne asked Jester. Jester gave him a thumbs up. "Why thank you Jester." Scarlemagne said to Jester.
Then Gerard came walking up, with Lio in one of the old style outfits, and a powder wig in his hands. "Ah, look at you, Lio. You could almost be mistaken for an actual noble." Scarlemagne said to Lio, as Gerard pushed Lio forward, and Jester put the painting down. "All that's missing is…" Scarlemagne said to Lio, walking to Lio, and putting the wig on Lio. "I'd prefer an outfit from this century." Lio said to Scarlemagne. "Hm. Rude. Now, come along!" Scarlemagne said to Lio, before leading Lio away, with Jester following him.
Soo they reached a construction zone, with the humans working on it. "What you see out there are the future foundations of my new city, Aurum. Your people have the privilege of building it for me." Scarlemagne said to Lio.
Then they walked up to a human, who was starting to break free of the mind control, and drop from exhaustion. Scarlemagne then gave him a whiff of his perfume, and the human started to get up. "That's the spirit! Back on your feet! Don't stop lifting until the very last beam is in place!" Scarlemagne said to the human.
"But you see, I'm running low on pheromones. There's only so much one mandrill can sweat. And that, dear Lio, is where I am so glad we are reunited." Scarlemagne said to Lio, wrapping his arm around Lio, and holding the perfume bottle close to their faces.
Unknown Location
The giant pigs stop, with Mandu still trying to stop them, and the Pokemon asleep and floating. "Let me outta here!" Kipo said, trying to force the pigs to let them go. But the Pig were unaffected by Kipo's attempts. But they still opened their mouths, letting everyone go, and the Blacephalons dropped the Pokemon. Waking the Pokemon up from the bumps to their heads.
As everyone got up, Mandu moved to Kipo's side, and Wolf took her stick back and pointed it at pigs and Blacephalons. But that's when Kipo and Kalena noticed shadows, and tapped Wolf's shoulder making Wolf see the shadow. that when they heard the changing.
"Feta, gouda, chèvre, fromage. Feta, gouda, chèvre, fromage. Feta, gouda, chèvre, fromage." the chanting said, with three female voices as everyone noticed three bind goats by a fire, wearing normal clothes, their hands in cheese, with a third Blacephalon next to them.
That's when the goats noticed them, and the Blacephalon's jumped off the pigs and landed near the goat. Then a goat in blue walked to Kipo and Kalena. The goat stared at them, before touching their faces with her cheese-covered hands. "The Light tells me we have visitors!" the goat said to the others, before removing her hands and eating her cheese. "The Light told all of us that, Florabel. It doesn't have a special relationship with you." A goat in green said to the blue one.
"We all heard it. The Light in the cheese is being pretty loud today. And It's screaming that he brought friends!" A goat in pink said to everyone, rubbing her hooves into Dave and Benson's face, making Dave gasp. "The Light in the cheese is so wise!" Dave said. That's when the pink goat tried to touch Wolf. "Now way. Rule number 93 of the surface: don't trust anyone who talks to the cheese." Wolf said to everyone, using her stick to keep the pink goat back, as Kipo and Kalena whipped off the cheese.
"I'm pretty sure you're just making up rules on the spot to explain why you don't trust anything." Aqua said to Wolf, making Wolf hold her stick at Aqua. "Point that at me as much as you want. My point of you not trusting still stands." Aqua said to Wolf, as everyone stood up.
"But I do trust my dad. He sent us here for a reason." Kipo said to Wolf. "But was it a good one?" Benson asked Kipo, before one of the pigs licked the cheese off him. "In the short time I've known him, probably. Pulse Mia did say they act strange, so this could just be how they normally act." Kalena said to Benson.
"Forgive us for Bornak and Webber. But travel by pig mouth is the only way to keep our location, shh, a secret." Florabel said to Benson, as the pig finished liking him. "There are literally hundreds of other ways." Benson said to everyone. "But none more effective. It's hard to find this place when you are in a pig's mouth. Sounds like a good way to keep it hidden to me." Aqua said to Benson.
Mandu then squealed at the goats. "It's OK, Mandu, these nice goats are going to train me and Kalena now." Kipo said to Mandu. "Train you? The Goat in green asked. "Train for what?" Florabel asked Kipo. "There's a train?" The goat in pink asked. "Oh. I thought you knew… or that the light in the cheese would know? Doesn't matter, I'm here because my dad, well, both my parents actually, made me part mute. Part Mega Mute. well, part Mega Jaguar, actually. And my friend Kalena has been mutated by some radiation." Kipo said to the goats.
They didn't react to any of what Kipo said, so Kipo tired again. "Let me start at the beginning." Kipo said to the goat, as she took a deep breath.
Scarlemagne's Palace
In Scarlemagne's Palace, Scarlemagne and Jester lead Lio in the room Kipo and Kalena busted him out of, with the fence fixed. "I'd like you to reproduce my pheromones. You are a chemist, after all. I even got you chemistry sets from an old toy store. Another brilliant idea of mine." Scarlemagne said to Lio, as he showed off all the chemicals and equipment in the room.
"If you think I'd help you do that to my own people… You're insane." Lio said to Scarlemagne. This made Scarlemagne give Lio a mean look before laughing very loudly. "Right again, Lio! I'm unhinged!" Scarlemagne said to Lio, before climbing onto the ceiling, breaking a few beakers. Scarlemagne then landed in front of Lio.
"I wonder who made me that way." Scarlemagne asked Lio. "It doesn't have to be this way. There's an amazing world out there, and if we took a different path, we could work together to-" Lio said to Scarlemagne, but Scarlemagne interrupted him.
"Pass. If what happened to Javin's people says anything. There's no going back." Scarlemagne said to Lio, before hitting him with some of the perfume. This forced him to have wide eyes and a big smile, none of it natural. "Now get to work!" Scarlemagne said to Lio. "I should get to work!" Lio said, as he started to work.
"And shower me with praise as you do." Scarlemagne said to Lio, giggling. "You are the epitome of class, style and might. My daughter and her friend don't stand a chance against you, even with their powers." Lio said to Scarlemagne. "Powers, you say? Is that friend the scale girl Javin's been talking about? Oh this is getting good." Scarlemagne said, before leaving. "Jester. Watch him." Scarlemagne said to Jester. "Blacephalon." Jester said, bowing "yes sir".
Unknown Location
Back in the unknown Location. Kipo was finishing her story, with everyone sitting on benches around the place. "Basically, me and Kalena need to learn how to control our powers, become a Mega Jaguar, whatever Kalena will be, and save my people! Like, now!" Kipo said to the goats, panting.
And while the gang was not interested in Kipo's story, the goats were. Dave then walked up to them with some water. "I know, right? That's a lot." Dave said to the goats, pouring them some water, and drinking the rest of it. "Oh, young lady, that sounds like a lot of responsibility. Are you two ready?" Florabel asked Kipo and Kalena. "To learn how to do all that? Yes! I am ready for you with infinite wisdom." Kipo said to Florabel, taking a seat in front of the goats.
"And if you know anything about what's going on with me. I'd love to hear it. Also I feel like we should know your names by now." Kalena said to the goats. "I'm Bev." the goat in green said to Kalena. "I'm Florabel." Florabel said to Kalena. "I'm Ida." The goat in pink said to Kalena. "And you know, Bornak and Webber. And the last three of us are Dawn, Sahar, and Oriana." Bev said to Kalena, pointing to the pigs and Blacephalons
"It's supposed to be a dangerous transformation. And somethings going on with Kalena. You can help them with that right?" Benson asked the goats. "Oh, of course. But first…" Bev said, but Ida interrupted her. "Cheese." Ida said. "We make cheese!" Florabel said to everyone.
"We're gonna make cheese?" Dave asked everyone. "We're gonna make cheese!" Ida said to Dave, touching his face. "We're gonna make cheese! We're gonna make cheese!" Dave and Ida said at the same time, holding hands and jumping up and down a little.
"What?" Kipo asked, as Wolf got up. "Hey! Didn't you hear Kipo? People are counting on her, she needs help now. We don't have time for cheese!" Wolf said to the goat. "We might have time for cheese." Benson said to everyone. "I say we try it." Kalena said to everyone. "Kalena!" Wolf said to Kalena.
"What? If it will help or make them train us sooner. Then let's get it over with." Kalena said to Wolf. "It's OK, Wolf. It is a little bit weird." Kipo said to Kalena. "No, Kipo, it's very weird." Wolf said to Kipo. "But if I have to make cheese to start training, I'll do it." Kipo said to everyone. "That's the spirit. So let's get to work." Kalena said to everyone. "And if I have to eat that cheese, I'll do it. I'll do it." Dave said to everyone. "Why am I not surprised?" Aqua said to Dave.
"All right, guys. Let's do this." Kipo said to everyone, as the goats took Kipo and Kalena away and into a tree, and stopped the rest of the gang and their pokemon from following them. "Ah-ah-ah." Florabel said to everyone. "This is a journey they must do without you." Bev said to everyone. "But with us." Ida said to everyone.
"What? Why?" Wolf asked the goats, not liking this. "Scared wisdom." Bev said to Wolf. "I totally buy that." Dave said. "I don't." Wolf said. "I don't think they care if you do." Aqua said to Wolf, as one of the Blacephalons went inside, and the other two got onto the pigs, and the pigs blocked the door. "Hey." Wolf said to the pigs. "Don't worry, Wolf! Sacred wisdom." Kipo said to Wolf, imitating Bev. "We'll be fine. Stay out of trouble." Kalena said to Wolf, as they entered the tree.
Inside the tree, Kipo and Kalena saw it was a massive, natural kitchen, with a lot of ingredients, and lit up by pink Light Crystals. Ida moved to one of the selves and took two cans off the shelf. Ida gave them to Kipo. "Huh? What are these for?" Kipo asked Ida, before Florabel moved Kipo and Kalena to a large black cauldron. "You just put the herbs in. You must evenly distribute them while the crud cooks." Florabel said to Kipo, as Bev put the curd into the cauldron.
"Just a pinch at a time. Like this. Herbs in, herbs out. Herbs in, herbs out." Florabel said to Kipo, as she made Kipo move her arms in sync. "And You, Dawn will toss you liquids to add into the crud. Make sure you catch it and not not spill it. Reach out and pull back. Reach out and pull back." Ida said to Kalena, as Ida held out a hoof. Dawn then tossed her a small cup of milk. Ida was able to catch it, and poured it into the crud.
Ida and Dawn did it again to show Kalena what to do. Dawn didn't wait for Kalena to hold out a hand, and threw a glass at her. But Kalena was able to catch it, and looked at it for a second before putting it into the crud.
"Oh. That's it? That's all I have to do? Herbs in, herbs out." Kipo asked. "And all I have to do is catch stuff and put it in?" Kalena asked. "Oh, we'll do the rest. It's easy, dear. You just…" Ida said to Kipo, before all three of them talked about three different steps about making cheese at the same time, making it hard to follow.
"And that's when you put the herbs and fresh milk in." Ida said to Kipo and Kalena. "Uh… what was all that?" Kipo asked Kalena. "No idea." Kalena said to Kipo. "Oh, you just keep at it with the herbs, dear. And you add the milk, dear." Florabel said to Kipo and Kalena, with Ida on her soldiers, and Ida dropping stuff around them.
Kipo and Kalena looked at each other, before Kipo added the herbs, and Kalena caught another glass of milk before adding it in. "Does it look like we can see what you're doing? Say it out loud." Bev said to Kipo and Kalena, as she got a bucket of water. "Herbs in? Herbs out?" Kipo said, as she added some herbs in. "Reach out? pull back?"
"Herbs in/ Reach out…" Kipo and Kalena, before Ida dropped something, hitting Kipo, and causing Kipo to hit Kalena. These actions cause Kipo to drop one of the cans into the cheese, and Kalena to miss a throw.
That's when Kipo put her hand into the cheese to get it back, but she felt the heat and pulled it out, that's when Kipos jaguar fur appeared on left arm. As for Kalena, she saw the milk was about to hit one of the goats, so she reached out her right arm. That's when her right arm got longer, and when she pulled back she noticed her right arm had a third part, with an extra elbow, and when she pulled it back, it looked like a Z.
"What's wrong? Did you forget to put the herbs and milk in?" Bev asked them, getting them wet with some water. "Nope. I'm on it!" Kipo said to Bev, as they shook off the water. "Yeah. We got this." Kalena said to Bev, as Kipo reached to the can again, and to help cool her a little, Kalena poured the milk onto the spot where Kipo was reaching for the can.
While the milk helped, Kipo still felt the burn. "Herbs in! Herbs out!" Kipo said, as she put some herbs in, working through the pain. "Reach out! Pull back!" Kalena said, as Dawn tossed two more glasses. Kalena caught one of them, but the other one went far to the left, so she reached out her left arm, and it turned into the same kind of arm as her right arm.
"Herbs in!" Kipo said, as she finally noticed her arm had changed. "Bev, will you toss me those ghost peppers?" Florabel asked Bev. "Sure. And Kalena, hold this for me." Bev said to Florabel and Kalena, as he tossed the ghost papers, hitting Kipo in the eyes, casuging Kipo to scream in pain and her eyes turn pink, and tossing a mug to Kalena.
But Kalena's hands were full with glasses full of milk, so she tried using her fangs. But the mug was too high in the air, and passed her that's when her neck became longer, and more flexible. Kalena bent her head back, and was able to get the mug into her teeth. She pulled her head back, and noticed she had the ability to move her head around very freely.
"Oh, don't forget those herbs and milk." Ida said to Kipo and Kalena, as she took the peppers from Kipo. "Herbs in. Herbs out." Kipo said, as she added herbs into the cheese. "Reach out! Pull back!" Kalena said, as she caught more milk and put it in. "Girls, we don't have enough milk and it's hot enough!" Bev said to everyone.
"Um, uh, uh, it's pretty hot!" Kipo said to the goats. "And I think we have enough milk." Kalena said to the goats, with a muffled voice, as the goat blew into the fire, and Dawn tossed four large glasses of milk at Kalena.
For Kipo, the larger fire made her left arm become a big paw, and she stepped backwards, slipping on the spilled water Bev left. That's when a tail popped out of Kipo, and it helped Kipo from falling into the cheese.
For Kalena, she caught two of the glasses, and couldn't catch the other two. Panicking a little, two more three parts and two elbow arms popped out from above her waist, and grabbed the glasses.
That's when Kipo and kalena looked at each other and noticed the changes, they started to freak out a little. But before either of them could speak, Ida popped in between them. "Ooh! The milk is curdling?" Ida said before leaving them. "Time to cut the curd and taste it." Ida said, as she grabbed a tray of knives and a cup.
Ida turned around at high speed, and the knives and cup were sent flying to Kipo and Kalena. This is when Kipo's ears turn into cat ears and she hears the knives coming. And she dodged them, with her teeth becoming fangs.
For Kalena, her legs grew longer forming a crooked Z sharp, and claws popped out from her toes, dodging a knife about to hit her lower half and keepingher sable with the extra length. And at the same time she saw the cup lying and tried to catch it, large with a bump forming on the edge of her snot, catching the cup like it was a ring in a ring toss game.
Kipo and Kalena were getting tired from all this. "I don't hear you putting herbs and milk in!" Ida said to Kipo and Kalena. "Herbs in. Herbs out." Kipo said, as she got back to work. "Reach out. Pull back." Kalena said, as she got back to work. That's when the goats walked up behind her, with cooking tools in their hands.
Scarlemagne's Palace
In Scarlemagne's Palace, Javin was alone looking at the pillar of smoke that was coming from what reminds of Ratland. That's when Scarlemagne walked up to him, with a large box. "Ah Javin there you are. I have something for you." Scarlemagne said to Javin. But Javin was too lost in thought to hear him. "Javin!" Scarlemagne said to Javin, finally getting Javin's attention.
"Oh, sorry sir. I was lost in thought." Javin said to Scarlemagne. "I know the thought of our Kingdom becoming real is an enchanting thought." Scarlemagne said to Javin. "That's not what…" Javin said to Scarlemagne, but Scarlemagne interrupted him. "But we can think about it later. First I have a gift and mission for you." Scarlemagne said to Javin.
"Mission?" Javin asked Scarlemagne. "Yes. I need you to find Lio's daughter. She's very important." Scarlemagne said to Javin. "I don't know…" Javin said to Scarlemagne, but Scarlemagne interrupted him again. "Where are they? Yes. That will be a challenge. But I have confidence you will succeed." Scarlemagne said to Javin.
"Even if I knew where they were. That scale girl would get in my way." Javin said to Scarlemagne. "That's why I brought you this." Scarlemagne said to Javin, opening the box. Javin walked to the box, and pulled out a silver armor helmet, with an eyes and mouth hole, a large brown feather on the top, and with a brown Light Crystal on in the middle of the forehead.
"Old books always talked about Knights slaying Dragons. I was waiting to give this to you when we make the kingdom a reality. And make you my knight. But I think you'll need it now." Scarlemagne said to Javin. Javin just stared at the helmet. "Javin, don't get cold feet now. We're so close. Soon we'll make the kingdom your chief wanted, and bring justice to the humans responsible for what happened to them. Just put on the helmet and become my knight." Scarlemagne said to Javin.
Javin put the helmet down, took off his head gear, let his headgear fall to the floor, and put the helmet on. "What do you ask of your knight?" Javin asked Scarlemagne. Making Scarlemagne smile.
Unknown Location
Back in the Unknown Location, Wolf and Star were facing off against the pigs and Blacephalons, and they were losing. "Star use, Razor Leaf." Wolf said, as she threw Star, and charged at the pigs. "Kartana." Star said, as he fired sharp leaves. But the Blacephalons fired a small burst of fire that hit Star, knocking him out of the sky, and the flames scattered, knocking out bruning the leaves away. That's when the pigs forced Wolf away from them.
"Give it up Wolf. What was that, your 9th fail?" Aqua asked Wolf, as she looked at some carvings on a wall, and everyone else seated on the benches. The carvings showed something above everything, below it was a carving of goats and cheetahs, below that was carvings of dogs and rabbits, and many more animals carvings below that.
"Ok, you asked for it. Star use Night Slash." Wolf said, as she threw Star at the Blacephalons. "Kartana." Star said, as his blades glowed black. Star missed the Blacephalons, but it gave Wolf the chance to sting the pigs with her stick. Then she got in between the Blacephalons, and the Blacephalons fired pink pusles. But Wolf dodged those pulses, and hit each other with the pulse.
Wolf then jumped off the pigs, and Star moved to her side. That's when pigs and Blacephalons fell asleep, now being even more of a block for everyone. "Oh, come on!" Wolf said. "Out of curiosity? How did you think that would go?" Aqua asked Wolf, making Wolf give Aqua a mean look.
"Wolf, you are messing with forces you can't possibly understand. You do not want to make that cheese mad." Dave said to Wolf. "Don't be ridiculous, Dave! Now help me move this pig." Wolf said to Dave. "I listen to him, Wolf. While I don't think the cheese is anything important. The Light in it is very real. And I've seen its power first hand. It's not something to mess with." Aqua said to Wolf.
"The light is nonsense. Now help me." Wolf said to Aqua. "I'm sure it's fine, Wolf. If Kipo and Kalena need our help, they'll let us know." Benson said to Wolf. "Come on!" Wolf said, as she tried to move on of the pigs, with little success. That's when they all heard two very loud and mean roars from inside the tree, freaking everyone out. "They… They let us know." Benson said to everyone.
"Kommo-o." Kommo-o said, as she ran to the pigs, and easily moved them out of the way. "Why didn't you do that earlier?" Wolf asked Kommo-o. "Kommo-o, kom kom o-o kom." Kommo-o said to Wolf, with it sounding like, "You were just being paranoid before."
With the pigs out of the way, they all started to move into the tree, and while moving into the tree, Mandu noticed how big the pigs tusk were compared to her tiny teeth, and realized they'll get that big, making her happy. "Kommo-o." Kommo-o said, grabbing Mandu, with a "Come on" tune in her voice.
When they got inside, they all saw Kipo and Kalena's new look, with Wolf gasping. "What did you do to our friends?!" Wolf asked the goats. "Is something wrong, dear?" Florabel asked Kipo and Kalena. "Yes!" Kipo said to the goats. "Maybe we should talk about this outside?" Aqua asked everyone.
A few minutes later, everyone was outside, with Sahar and Oriana treating the pigs, the goats and Dawn standing in front of the gang who were sitting on chairs. "I still don't get how or why all this happens. And if I can't figure that out, I can't become a Mage Jaguar and help everyone who's counting on me! I came here for help, but instead I'm. like, half-jaguar. Also, I smell like cheese!" Kipo said to the goats. "Can you please explain what's going on? Why are we like half-beasts?" Kalena asked the goats
"Good." Florabel said to Kipo and Kalena. "That's what we were going for!" Bev said to Kipo and Kalena. "Including the smell!" Ida said to Kipo and Kalena. "What?!" Kipo asked the goats, after grumbling. "Yeah. Explain your madness please?" Kalena asked the goats.
"Sorry to put you through all that, but we need you two to see that the jaguar and dragon are always there to protect you." Florabel said to Kipo and Kalena. "That's why I threw knives at you two!" Ida said to Kipo and Kalena. "How do you know all this about me?" Kipo asked the goats. "You're ready to hear the tale." Florabel asked everyone. "Yes." Kalena said to Florabel.
"The tale begins a long time ago. In the old world, a great light shined down on us, transforming this world into what you see today, leaving Light Crystals as remnants of its power. For Humans the light had no effect. But us Mutes, it changed us. For some they became Megas. For others, they turned into creatures like the Timbercats." Bev said to everyone.
"But us and our brother Tribe the Cheetah Boxers, had a special connection to the light, and were able to use its powers. And it was tradition for the Chief of the Cheetah Boxers to come and ask us for wisdom." Ida said to everyone. "Is that what those carving means?" Aqua asked Ida, pointing to the carving on the wall. "Yes." Ida said.
"And not too long ago, when the last Chief of the Cheetah Boxers, Aayan first became the chief, that your father found his way here, after a great light shined in the city that night. Your father had just lost your mother and sister, and he had to abandon the burrow where you and your twin sister were born. After escaping danger, losing your sister in that danger, he wandered into our forest. He asked us for guidance, so we had him make cheese." Florabel said to Kipo.
"Is that your solution to everything?" Benson asked the goats. "It's a good solution!" Dave said. "While working on the cheese, Aayan watched you and your father, reasling that he and your father weren't so different, both having daughters they love, and losing their loves. Aayan could only feel sorry for him, after losing one of his daughters, a pain he never wanted anyone to feel." Florabel said to everyone.
"We taught him how to calm your powers. And when we told your father that you need to be raised in a burrow, in order to keep the jaguar under control. And when it was time for you to learn how to use the jaguar, you'd come for us. Aayan made up his mind and decided he had to make a change. So after helping you and your father get to your burrow, Aayan promised to change the surface world into one where a father won't lose his daughter. And that your father would have an alley on the surface." Bev said to Kipo.
"Do you know what happened to my sister?" Kipo asked the goats. "Like we told your father. The cheese told us, "The light has taken her away"." Bev said to Kipo, making Kipo sad. Kalena then hugged Kipo, trying to comfort her.
"Kipo, Kalena, your arms!" Benson said to Kipo and kalena, getting their attention, making them see, Kipo's left arm was going back to normal, and Kalena's extra arms were going back into her body. This made Wolf gasp. "It's going away!" Wolf said, making Kipo gasp.
"But why won't it go all the way?" Kipo asked the goats. "Breathe deep. Now think about being safe with your father. Herbs out!" Bev said to Kipo, holding Kipo's hands. Kipo then made the Herbs in Herbs out jesters with her hands, and thought about the good times with her dad. "Herbs out." Kipo said, as she transformed back to normal.
"Now you, remember the time you were safe. Reach out, pull back." Bev said to Kalena. "Reach out, pull back." Kalena said, as she reached her arms out and pulled them back, remembering the times, she caught Kommo-o when she was a Jangmo-o and held her close. She also remembers the times when a Kommo-o picked her up and held her close, protecting her from a Fearow. And despite the mean Fearow screeching at them, Kalena felt safe in the Kommo-o's arms.
That's when Kalena transformed back to normal. "It worked!" Kipo said, as she and Kelana inspected their bodies. "Shame, I was starting to like those long legs of mine." Kalena said to Kipo. "How did that…?" Kipo asked the goats, but Florabel interrupted her.
"Oh, the gestures help ground and focus you two." Florabel said to Kipo and Kalena. "Try again! When you do herbs in, and reach out, think about needing that jaguar and dragon. When you two do herbs out and pull back, remember how it felt to be safe with your loved ones." Bev said to Kipo and Kalena.
"Herbs in/ Reach out." Kipo and Kalena said, as they gestured the motions and their mutant parts grew out. "Herbs out/ pull back." Kipo and Kalena said, as they gestured the motions and turned back to normal, making Wolf gasp. "Kipo, Kalena, you did it!" Wolf said to them. "I did it! We did it!. We can control it!" Kipo said to Wolf and Kalena, hugging Wolf, then Kalena. "Control yes. But we still have much more to learn about what we can do." Kalena said to Kipo.
"Then you two will be Paw and Claw masters!" Benson said to Kipo and Kalena, before Mandu and Virgo tackled Kipo, knocking her off her feet and back into her seat. Everyone was happy about this. "Those-Those-Those-Those-Those-Those are four normal human hands. I knew these goats were for real!" Dave said to everyone.
"Does anybody need a paw? Because I got one. Herbs in." Kipo said to everyone, as she called out her right. "I'll see you paw and raise you an extra set of arms. Reach out." Kalena said, as she made her arms scaly, and popped out her extra two arms. "Well played Kalena. Herbs out." Kipo said to Kalena. "Pull back." Kalena said. as they both laughed and put their paws and extra arms away.
"I have to admit, even I'm impressed." Wolf said to the goats. "Does this mean I'm ready to become the Mega Jaguar and save my people?" Kipo asked the goats. "Let's consult the cheese, shall we?" Bev asked everyone.
Scarlemagne's Palace
In Scarlemagne's Palace, Scarlemagne was talking with Lio, as Lio worked and Jester watched him. "Just to clarify. The girls with the purple jaguar paw and scaly tail who got past my guards, and are immune to my pheromones, is actually your daughter. And you have a crazy idea about who this scale girl could be?" Scarlemagne asked Lio. "Yes." Lio said to Scarlemagne.
"Fascinating. Of course, this means I'll have to eliminate her. Although, if they could control their inner beasties, and I could make her sympathetic to my cause… why I'd be unstoppable!" Scarlemagne said to Lio, with Lio's body shaking. "Imagine if your little science experiment was my pets!" Scarlemagne said to Lio, as Lio broke free of the mind control.
Lio moved to the shop's gates. "Good luck. You don't know Kipo or Kalena." Lio said to Scarlemagne. "Like you know Kalena. If anything, she's the one who would probably join me if not both of them. After what you did to me was what you did to her." Scarlemagne said to Lio, taking his perfume bottle back from Lio, by force.
"Careful now. Don't want to spill a drop." Scarlemagne said to Lio, putting the bottle on a shelf. "Thank you, Lio. Now I have my army, the strongest of these new creatures, and an endless supply of pheromones. All I'm missing is Kipo and Kalena. And to get them for me. Let me introduce you to Sir Javin." Scarlemagne said to Lio, standing next to a giant tank full of pink liquid, and pointing to outside the shop.
That's when Javin and Maira walked into view. Javin was now in silver armor, he was still wearing the helmet, with his joints free, and armor bands were wrapped around his legs and arm, his chest plate was decorated with a image of old ape on it, a fingerless iron glove, and lastly a brown cap that starts on the back his right shoulder, wrapped around his back and went to the front of his left shoulder, with a brown light crystal pinning it.
"I'm ready to hunt down these kids." Javin said to everyone, with Scarlemagne laughing wildly, and Lio beginning to freak out.
Unknown Location
Back in the Unknown Location, while everyone was inside, Mandu was showing off straws she had in her mouth that made her look like the big pigs. The big pigs found this amusing, and used their tusk to nuzzle her. That's when Mandu went inside.
Inside, Bev, Florabel, and Ida, were standing around some cheese. "No for the last thing." Bev said, as she pulled out three fabric arm bands with pink Light Crystals woven in it.
"Feta." The goat said at the same time, as they crossed their arms in an X shape, and glowed pink. "Gouda." The goat said at the same time, as then they held their hand in front of them, crossing their arms. "Chevre." The goat said at the same time, as they pointed their hooves to their heads. "Fromage." The goat said at the same time, as they moved a hoove into the cheese, making the light flow into the cheese.
"They put their nasty hooves and their own soul in it." Dave said, not liking this. "What a waste of cheese." Benson said to everyone. "Those were motions for the Psychic Z move. Shattered Psyche. In other words they just put a lot of psychic energy into the cheese" Kalena said to everyone, as the light faded, and their eyes went pink.
"The light is hurting. It was twisted for darkness. Things are unclear. But you Kipo, if you wish to save your people, you must indeed become the Mega Jaguar, with a Light to guide you." Bev said to Kipo. "But the beast within you is strong. Too Strong. And the light has yet to shine." Florabel said, as they saw Kipo in the cheese.
"If you become the Mega without the light you will lose yourself to it." Florabel said to Kipo, as the cheese Kalena faded away, and the cheese Kipo got eaten by a jaguar, making everyone gasp.
"What? But what about herbs in, herbs out?" Kipo asked the goats. "I think what they're talking about is the instincts of the Mega." Kalena said to Kipo. "She's correct. Once you become a Mega, you will lose sight of everything that makes you human." Bev said to Kipo. "How come?" Kipo asked. "Because Kipo. you don't know what it's like to struggle to live. You've had it easy growing up, you had a very thick bubble around you. You don't know how to control the urges of life." Kalena said to Kipo.
"Urges of life?" Kipo asked Kalena. "I mean. You don't know what it's like to hunt for food. Or the urge to attack. And many other things. You don't know how to control those kinds of ugres yet. It was your inability to control your urge to fight that got us busted and your father captured again. Kalena said to Kipo.
"But your path is not set in stone. You can prevent this future. Together, you must find something tangible that binds you to who you care at your core. This will be the path for the light to enter your heart and keep the beast at bay." Florabel said to Kipo, as everyone moved to Kipos' sides. "Something that will acnor the light and the beast." Ida said to Kipo. "An anchor will guide the light to you, and the light will guide you out of the beast." Florabel said to Kipo. "The Light in the cheese has spoken." Ida said, as their eyes stopped glowing pink.
"But who am I at my core? I used to be Kipo, happy-go-lucky girl and a single child from the Clover Burrow. But I'm not even from the Clover Burrow or an only child. If I don't know where I'm from, or about my sister, how am I supposed to know who I am?" Kipo asked the goats, as the goats cleaned their hooves.
"Then start at the beginning! Oh, that sounds smart. Did I say that?" Ida asked everyone. "I was born in another burrow. My parents' burrow. I never knew that. That's where we'll go. That's where I'll learn about myself, and maybe about my sister. Doing this, I can find the thing that reminds me of me. Why did my dad abandon it?" Kipo asked the goats.
"He didn't tell us, kid." Bev said to Kipo. "Well, do you know where it is?" Kipo asked the goats. "I'm afraid the light cheese can't make it out. The location has been twisted by darkness abusing it there." Florabel said to Kipo. "Well that's not a good sign." Aqua said to everyone. "We still have to find it." Kipo said to everyone.
Before we go wandering around town looking for it. What about Kalena? Is she in any danger?" Aqua asked the goats. "No. She has already walked this path." Florabel said to Aqua. "She has? When" Kipo asked. "I think they're talking about the time I finally meet other humans. After they found me. They taught me what it means to be human. And for a while I wondered who I was. But when my journey was over, I learned that while I may be a human, I am at my core, a Kommo-o, fighting the strong and protecting the weak."
"And with that core of yours, your light will shine. You've already started to shine." Ida said to Kalena. "You're talking about my mutations?" Kalena asked. "Yes. it is the light of your dragon shining from the deep of your heart." Florabel said to Kalena. "Now before you go. We have something for us all." Bev said to everyone, before pulling out a small box.
The goats grabbed something out of the box and walked to everyone. Ida gave Benson and Aqua two woven armbands, with the one going to Benson having yellow Light Crystals in it, and the one going to Aqua having purple Light Crystals in it. Florabel gave Wolf an armband with black Light Crystals in it. And Bev gave Kipo an arm band with White Crystals.
"Light Crystals?" Kipo asked, as they took the armbands and put it on. "You can use it to channel the light's power." Bev said to everyone. "How?" Wolf asked. "I think I have an idea. Let's go outside." Kalena said to everyone, leading them outside.
Once everyone was outside, Kalena organized everyone. "Okay. Kipo, you stand here with Virgo." Kalena said to Kipo, and she had Kipo facing the woods, and Virgo in front of her. "Dave, stay right here." Kalena said, as he put Dave a few feet ahead of Kipo and Virgo. "And everyone else stands over there." Kalena said to everyone else, as she moved to Kipo's side.
"Now Kipo, follow my lead, and say something powerful." Kalena said to Kipo, as she crossed her arms. "Okay." Kipo said to Kalena, as cross her arms. "For my dad." Kipo said, as they held their hands out, still crossing them, and Kipo glowing white. "For my friends." Kipo said, as they moved their hands down to the right, and then moved their left hands up. "For tomorrow." Kipo said, as they formed a Z with their arms.
This made the white energy flow into Virgo. "POIPOLE!" Virgo roared, as she let out a surge of white energy. Virgo then charged at Dave at high speed. When Virgo hit Dave, she stopped and sent Dave flying through a tree, leaving a Dave shaped hole in the tree. They all looked at Virgo with wide eyes, as Virgo flew in place, breathing havely.
"What was that?" Wolf asked, as Virgo caught her breath. "The Normal Z move. Breakneck Blitz." Kalena said to Wolf. "Z-move?" Kipo asked Kalena, as Dave limped back to everyone. "I figured it out after watching Javin and the Goats. These Light Crystals are a different vision of my home's Z-Crystals. And what the goats ment about the light being more attached to the cheetah and goats, is that they knew how to move, in order to chancle the energy." Kalena said to Kipo
"So with these crystals, we can do Z-Moves like you and Javin?" Aqua asked Kalena. "Yes. And, while Kipo has the Normal Element. Aqua has the Poison Element. Benson has the Electric Element. And Wolf has the Dark Element. And while I have the Dragon Element, I know the motions to use the other elements. So I can teach you how to use them." Kalena said to everyone. "Not far, I want a Light Crystal too!" Dave said to everyone.
"Dave. While Lady is your Pokemon, she doesn't listen to you or stay around that much. Pulse you die too much for you to hold onto something, and your molt would cause you to break it or drop it" Kalena said to Dave. "I do not molt that much." Dave said, before he molted into his mussel form, and a second later into his old form. "Okay, maybe I do molt too much." Dave said to everyone, making everyone laugh at him. "Don't laugh at me. Kids these days." Dave said to everyone.
Hello everyone, I hope you like this chapter. Please follow or review if you like this story. Now to clear some things up before we go. Lio found the goats the same night the Cheetah Chief was there, and Lio inspired the chief to change the world and they became friends. That's how Lio knew his name. As For Kalena, when I made her, I thought with Kipo's mussels, flexibility would be a good partner for her.
Now to explain what Kalena's mute form is now. She was covered in scales. She had 4 arms that bend in a Z shape, with the top point of the Z attached to her body, and the bottom attached to her hands. Each hand, having 3 inch claw tip fingers.
2 legs that bend in a crooked Z, with the top point of the Z attached to her body, and the bottom attached to her feet, with her toes covered in 3 inch claws. Each middle part of her Z gives her an extra 12 inches, making her a foot taller, and her arms longer.
Her tail is 4 feet long, rough and has some bumps at the end. Her neck was now a foot long, and can be into a U shape if Kalena wants to look behind herself. Her head is lizard-like, with a mouth full of fangs that curved back, a long tongue, and a small bump on the top end of her snot. Her clothes and hair are still the same as her normal form.
I hope this gives you a clearer idea about what Kalena looks like. Well until next time.
