The sun was still up, and the wind gently blew through the entrance of Amp plains, creating an ominous echo. But Team Aurora is used to that and soon arrived at the entrance of the dungeon.
"So, this is where the outlaw is said to be hiding?" Stacy said looking at Lucy, who nodded and got the wanted poster out of the bag.
"The outlaw is a Sandslash that is said to be hiding in Amp plains. As for which floor the details are unknown even to the police. So, keep your eyes open and be prepare for any monster houses" Lucy replied.
"Okay let's go!" Max spoke in an excited tone as he quickly ran into the dungeon. His excitement couldn't be more obvious.
Sparky would sigh as he went after him. The two females went alongside Sparky as they went into the dungeon as well.
AMP PLAINS
Starting off on the first floor, the team began to travel the dungeon and be on the lookout for the criminal. There were some normal enemies that would be encountered in Amp plains and they would defeat them.
There were times that Max or Lucy would be in trouble by being paralyzed or slowed but Sparky and Stacy would protect them by defeating the enemy and later gave them heal seeds so that they would be back to normal. It wasn't long until the found the stairs and climbed it.
Some Pokemon dropped treasure boxes to which Max's eyes would sparkle with joy as he quickly picks them up and puts them in Lucy's bag.
Treasure was always good. Cause they would later send it to Xatu for him to open the boxes.
Soon they were at floor 8, they looked everywhere for the outlaw as they battled enemies when they got attacked.
It wasn't long until they found the stairs and advanced to the 9th floor, to which they encountered a Pokemon that seemed to be digging in the ground. It was almost as if he was looking for something but soon, he stops and turns around with a surprised yet annoyed look The Pokemon was none other than Sandslash, the outlaw.
"You're the outlaw!" Max would say surprised, but his surprise was drowned by the determination flowing through him of capturing him.
At first the Pokemon would be confused before he realized what they were and laughed.
"Oh, I see what's going on. Your explorers huh? Well yeah, I'm the outlaw that the police is to dumb to find. What are you gonna do about it?" He said in a cocky tone. He had a smug grin on his face as if he knew he was getting away.
"Were gonna capture you!" Stacy said as she got close to Max.
That statement made the Pokemon laugh even more. He then sharpened his claws and smirked.
"So, your gonna bring me in eh? Fat chance. Your never gonna defeat me. Other explorers have tried to defeat me and bring me in. As you can see, they failed miserably. So, bring it on!"
"Don't underestimate team Aurora!" Sparky said as electricity sparkles would come out of his cheeks.
The outlaw would chuckle before giving a war cry as he runs towards them to attack.
Sparky was ready and used quick attack on him able to inflict damage and used it to dodge the claw of the Sandslash.
Max used thunder wave on the Pokemon hoping it would paralyze him but it didn't seemed to work as the Sandslash came and used Crush Claw on Max, inflicting a lot of damage making him yelp.
Stacy would growl in anger. She used flamethrower on the Sandslash which caused some good damage as the Pokemon would scream in pain as it got a burn status.
Using this opportunity, Lucy used swift at the Sandslash and used bite after, inflicting a lot of damage.
The outlaw would growl in anger and used bulldoze inflicting damage to all of them especially Sparky and Max.
He turns around and tried to flee from them, but he got stopped as Sparky used a powerful thunderbolt and shocked him badly that he fainted then and there.
The four Pokemon were panting as they were injured but not badly. They ate some oran berries and after doing so, they dragged the unconscious outlaw out of Amp Plains.
Inside the guild, Magnezone handcuffed Sandslash and was alongside the Magnemites, who made sure the outlaw wouldn't escape.
"Team Aurora thank you for catching the outlaw Sandslash who has been evading the police for a while now. Thanks to you people can live safe knowing that there is at least one less criminal on the loose" Magnezone said as he and the Magnemites did their sirens of appreciation.
"This is the reward for capturing Sandslash" Magnezone said as they gave Lucy 5000 poke(Which they were left with 500 poke), an Max Elixir and a Zinc Band.
After giving the rewards, The three Pokemon grabbed the outlaw and started to get him out of the guild.
Max and Stacy were happy and look at Sparky and Lucy.
"We did it!"
"Yeah. He really wasn't that strong at all"
The Eevee and Pikachu laughed at their words and nod.
"He didn't stand a chance" Sparky said with a smile.
"Yeah. Lets do great tomorrow as well ok? Then at night we have the festival to look forward to" Lucy said.
The Shinx and Vulpix nod and they said their goodbyes as the left the guild to go where they call home.
"We did good today" Sparky said to Lucy as he gently kissed her head.
The Eevee would blush deeply and hide her face with her paws causing the Pikachu to chuckle and blush himself. He haven't told her yet but he had feelings for her. During their adventures he noticed how cute she would get when she was happy, or how brave she has become now. He was mustering the courage of telling her how much he meant for her, but he didn't want to get rejected.
He has no idea that she feels the same way.
It wasn't long before the sky started to darken as the moon started rising. The silence consumed the world outside except for the cackling the fire posts in front of the guild created. Inside Pokemon were talking and hanging out until Chimecho came out of the dining hall and rang her bell.
"Sorry for the wait guys. Dinner is ready!" She said and stepped out of the way to avoid getting trampled over by the hungry guildmates as they rushed into the dining room and went to their seats.
And that is when the feast started. The guildmates were eating their food and sometimes talking about basic things, such as how their day has been or where they went.
Soon there was nothing left on the table and the guildmates grew tired as one by one they left the dining area and went to their rooms.
Lucy and Sparky would lay down on their nest and look at each other.
"We did a great job catching that criminal Sparky. I'm so excited for the Festival." Lucy said excited
"Me too Lucy" He replied with a soft smile.
Lucy cutely yawns and blushes as she snuggles closer to Sparky. The Pikachu deeply blushed at what she did but didn't mind.
"Goodnight Sparky"
"Goodnight Lucy"
Meanwhile In a forest
"Fascinating. So, this forest has the same effect as the others…That makes the plan much, much easier…"
