ello everyone, sorry for the long wait, but writing 5 big chapters takes a long time, plus dealing with many things doesn't help with the writing time. Now if you haven't heard, my Trainer Of Vesperia is finished, and I started Violet Iron & Scarlet Beast; The Abyss Riders. My new Tales of the Abyss Story, which had a cameo in chapter 39 of Trainer Of Vesperia.
Now I based Violet Iron & Scarlet Beast off Kamen Riders, and I don't own Kamen Riders/ Pokemon/ Or Tales of The Abyss. This is all for fun, and I couldn't resist a Kamen Rider theme for my Gen 9 OC, and these Abyss Riders are my idea, I didn't base them off any Kamen Rider form the series, if they sound like a Kamen Rider from the series, then I didn't know, I only know W up in terms of Kamen Riders.
Now before this chapter, it is a little long, plus working on finding my new job is taking a bit of my time, so it took some time to write this chapter.
Now time to get back into the main story. And in this chapter, I have a surprise that will hopefully make the story a little more interesting while battling the Valmese forces.
So here's chapter 21.
Chapter 21
Flames and Giants on the Blue
After a long while, the ships were ready, and they all headed out onto the sea. They were at sea for a while. "Ah, take it all in! Breathtaking. Somehow our troubles feel a lifetime away out here." Robin said to everyone, as she, Chrom, Simon, Harper, Lissa, Lucina, Morgan, Hannah and all of their Pokemon were out in the front of a ship enjoying the sea breeze.
"Yet in truth, we're headed straight toward them… I should be grateful the Plegians delivered us this fleet, as promised. But it's my first time on a vessel, and my legs… I never fancied myself a sea captain." Chrom said to everyone. "Agree. Give me land over sea any day of the week." Simon said to Chrom.
"This is our first voyage as well. In our time, all ships were destroyed. Smashed to pieces, along with their ports." Lucina said to everyone. "That's something they didn't need to know." Hannah said to Lucina.
"Lucina… Hannah… Something I've been meaning to ask… After you two stopped Emm's assassination… Why didn't you stay with us?" Chrom asked them. "I felt I had no other choice. I could not risk altering history any more than necessary. I sought only to divert events that directly led to Grima's return." Lucina said to Chrom.
"Plus, all we really did was let you keep the emblem and help you all get ready for your trip. In our time, Dad distracts the assassins by tossing the emblem away, and you all run away." Hannah said to Chrom.
"Hey, so wait-What about the guys who tried to kill Chrom in the gardens? What would've happened if you didn't save him?" Lissa asked Lucina and Hannah. "He would have been gravely wounded. And those wounds would have played a part in the tragedies to come." Lucina said to Lissa.
"Whoa! Good thing you changed things, huh?" Lissa asked Lucina. "If indeed they have changed… The river of time always favors its original course. Take Garchomps death. We weren't able to change it at all." Lucina said to everyone. "You did what you could." Chrom said to Lucina.
"I was so certain it was over. That we'd saved the world. But time simply found another way back to its course. Perhaps the task is simply too great. Perhaps if I'd done something differently? I replay events in my head, over and over…" Lucina said to everyone, but was interrupted by Hannah hitting the back of Lucina's head.
"I told you to stop thinking about that." Hannah said to Lucina. "Yeah. you did your best. And you saved me, after all." Chrom said to Lucina. "You're kind, Father. But nothing is certain. Another could take your life. Time could find a way." Lucina said to Chrom. "Do you know how I die?" Chrom asked Lucina.
"Only rumors… I was told you and Simon fell in a great battle, fought to sway your destinies. And that you two were murdered. Betrayed by someone dear to you both." Lucina said to Chrom. This is when Robin got a killer headache. "Robin? What is it?" Chrom asked Lucina. "M-my head… I don't… F-forgive me. I'm fine." Robin said to Chrom.
"Lucina, why is Chrom and Simon's death such an important thing?" Harper asked Lucina. "After they're murder and Grima's return, I took the name Marth and fought back. I prayed to the Hero-King for a small part of the strength he used to save the world." Lucina said to Harper. "And I took the name Zacian to try and encourage everyone. Thinking that if they had the Sword God backing them gave them some hope, even if it was a little." Hannah said to everyone.
"But we need this subterfuge no longer. We choose to fight as Lucina and Hannah now. Those names that remind us of the strength in the man and woman who shoes it." Lucina said to everyone. "A strength shared by the women who bear it." Chrom said to Lucina and Hannah. "I hate to interrupt family time." A female voice said to everyone.
That's when everyone turned to see Grace standing nearby. "We have a problem." Grace said to everyone, as she led everyone to another part of the ship, with Chrom, Ropbin, Simon, and their Pokemon following them.
A few minutes later, all of them reached the back of the ship, with Frederick, Basilio, Flavia, and their Pokemon waiting for them. "So what's up?" Simon asked everyone. "The pegasus knights report the Valmese fleet matches our ship for ship." Frederick said to Chrom, in a serious tune.
"Your tone tells me this is not good news." Chrom said to Frederick. "Their troops vastly outnumber ours. Our vessels are half-full, at best. But every Valmese ship is packed from stem to stern with soldiers." Frederick said to Chrom. "If we attempt to board them in a straight fight, we'll be slaughtered." Chrom said to everyone
"We've little choice but to try anyway. Plegia had no men to spare, but they were generous with other supplies… including oil. Perhaps a clever tactician could find a use for that." Flavia said to Robin. "Hmm… Perhaps she could." Robin said to everyone. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Simon said to everyone.
"If we can put their ships to flames, they'd have nowhere to escape to. We could-" Flavia said to everyone, but Basilio interrupted her. "You could roast us all like hams! Are you truly so eager to dei, women?!" Basilio said to Flavia.
"Do you have a better idea, oaf?! The problem is we have no catapults. Hmm… How to get the lite oil on their decks without our own ships getting caught in the blaze?" Flavia asked everyone. "Hmm. Unless we WANT our ships caught in the blaze." Robin said to everyone.
"Why in the gods' names would…" Basilio asked, but Simon was interrupted by Simon. "I think I know what she's talking about. We empty out as many ships as we can, light them up, and ram them into the Valmese's ships. And with them cramped, once their ships are on fire, they can't escape and down goes the Valmese threat towards our homeland, leaving us to focus on the Valmese on their turf." Simon said to everyone. "Those are broad strokes, but correct Simon." Robin said to Simon.
"Well, I know better than to question Robin. Especially not when she has that look in her eyes. Gods save us from what she's cooked up this time-let's just hope it's not us!" Basilio said to everyone. "But for my plan to work we'll need to disrupt their chain of command… Our strongest team would need to board their lead ships and kill their general. As our best captain I'd have you heard the squad, but you ARE the prince, so…" Robin said to Chrom
"Yes, I AM the prince, so no one can order me NOT to go. I will lead the assault!" Chrom said to Robin. "Then this plan truly stands a chance." Robin said to everyone. "Heh… So much has changed since we found you that day, lying in the open field… hard to believe you determine the fate of our entire army now… our entire people. Destiny has a strange way." Chrom said to Robin.
"No, Chrom. Not destiny." Robin said to Chrom. "What?" Chrom asked Robin. "We're not pawns of some scripted fate. I believe we're more. Much More." Robin said to Chrom. "How do you mean?" Chrom asked Robin. "There's something between us all. Something that keeps us together. Like invisible ties, connecting us. Giving us strength. We forged these tired. WE strengthen them. If we preserve them, or brea them, it will be by our choices, not some "destiny"..." Robin said to Chrom.
"Robin. I think this salty air might have gone to your head, hah!" Chrom said to Robin. "Yeah, what's with all the "were about to die" speeches? Or do you want to talk about some other mystery of the universe?" Simon asked Robin. "All right, all right- perhaps enough Philosophy for one day." Robin said to everyone.
"Indeed there are! And preparations to be made! Oh, and Robin. If we are all bound by these invisible tires, I thank the gods it's with you." Chrom said to Robin. "Now then, everyone! Look lively! We have work to do!" Chrom said to everyone.
The Shepherds then all gathered on one of the ships, with Simon having Perrserker out, Daniel having Bewear out, Harper having Roserade out, Grace having Lapras out, Theo having Grapploct out, Layla having Mr. Rime out, Madison had Toxapex out, and Ethan had Shiftry out.
"Okay people, here's the plan, we're heading to the flag ships. The goal is to take out their general, and disrupt their chain of command. But we don't know what ship the general is. So we're splitting into three teams Me, Chrom, Simon, Harper, Lucina, Hannah, Morgan, Sumia, Cordelia, Nowi, Anna, Cherche, Basilio, Severa, Nah and their Pokemon will be attacking the ship on our left. Daniel, Grace, Ethan, Virion, Layla, Virion, Vaike, Miriel, Kellam, Lon'qu, Gaius, Gregor, Libra, Olivia, Henry, Norie and their Pokemon will attack the ship on our right. Theo, Madison, Frederick, Sully, Stahl, Donnel, Maribelle, Riken, Sophia, Connor, Panne, Flavia, Kjelle, Yarne, Laurent will attack the ship in front." Robin said to everyone.
"You heard the woman. Get ready. Our ship is almost within boarding distance." Simon said to everyone. Everyone nodded and got ready for their attack.
"General Ignatius, the Ylisse are preparing to board three of our ships." A Valmese soldier said to a man in red general armor, as he noticed the Shepherd's ship getting closer. "One ship against three of ours? They're either very brave or very stupid. Either way, their bodies will float on the long sea before the day is done." Ignatius said to the Valmese soldier.
"But sir, they have beasts with them." The Valmese said to Ignatius. "Fear not, we have a couple of beasts in the waters waiting for them. Plus we have our secret weapon waiting for my signal." Ignatius said to the Valmese Soldier.
That's when the Shepherd's ship reached the Valmese ships. Once they got close, they lowered some platforms allowing them to bore their ships. But once they tried to cross a giant fish burst out of the water, and onto the wooden boarding.
The fish was sickly green with a black top, white fins, a few large fangs in its mouth, violet red lines and spots, and violet red energy eyebrows, beared, mustache, and a long wavy tail.
"Everyone stay on guard. That's a Basculegion." Daniel said to everyone.
Basculegion.
The Big Fish Pokemon.
Water / Ghost.
Clades Itself In The Souls Of Comrades That Perished Before Fulfilling Their Goals Of Journeying Upstream. No Other Species Throughout All Hisui's Rivers Is Basculegion's Equal.
"And it's not alone." Connoer said, as everyone noticed more Basculegions swimming around their ships. "That's not good." Harper said, as the Bascilegion lunged at everyone while encased in raging water.
"Absol use Shadow Claw." Robin said to Absol, as she pulled out her thunder spell book. "Absol." Absol said, as her claws became encased in black energy with a purple outline. Absol then dodged Basculegion attack, and slashed its side, opening a hole in the raging water. Robin then fired a thunderbolt into the hole Absol made, zapping the Basculegion, sending it flying back into the water.
"Pyroar, stun them with Snarl." Chrom said to Pyroar. "Pyroar." Pyroar said, as he let out a nasty sound. The sound made the Basculegions in the water squirm, allowing everyone to cross the wooden boards.
"Perrserker use Metal Claw." Simon said to Perrserker as they all started to slash through some Valmese soldiers. "Perrserker." Perrserker said, as he popped out his blades and his blades glowed sliver. Then Perrserker started to slash through some Valmese soldiers.
That's when some Valmese Pegasus Knight came flying in. "Roserade use Pin Missile." Harper said to Roserade, as she dodged one of the Valmese Pegasus Knight attacks. "Roserade!" Roserade said, as she aimed her flowers at the Valmese Pegasus Knight. Roserade then fired needles from her flowers and hit the Valmese Pegasus Knight's Pegasus, causing it to fall out of the sky and crash into the water
"Rilliaboom use Solar Blade, I'll cover you." Hannah said to Rilliaboom, as she battled a couple of Valmese Fighters. "Rilliaboom." Rilliaboom said, as he started to channel light into his drumstick.
A Valmese Mage noticed this, and cast a fireball spell at Rilliaboom. "Incineroar, stop that attack with Fire Punch." Lucina said to Incineroar, as she helped Hannah finish her fight. "Incineroar." Incineroar said, as his fists became encased in fire, and punched the fireball popping it. Then Incinerator charged and punched the Valmese Mage, sending the Valmese Mage flying into the sea.
Then a large green double edge energy blade formed around his drumstick. Rilliaboom then swung his blade, slashing a couple of the Valmese forces.
With Morgan and Greninja, a Valmese Pegasus Knight charged at them. "Greninja use Double Team." Morgan said to Greninja. "Greninja." Greninja said, as he made copies of himself, surpassing the pegasus and making it stop. That's when Morgan fired a thunder spell at the Valmese Pegasus Knight, finishing her.
At the same time, Sumia and Altaria were getting chased by a Valmese Pegasus Knight. "Altaria try to stop them with Sing." Sumia said to Altaria. "Altaria." Altaria said, before she started to let out a gentle song. This caused the Valmese Pegasus Knight and her pegasus to slow down and got sleepy.
"Talonflame use Aerial Ace." Cordelia said to Talonflame. "Talonflame!" Talonflame said, as she disappeared and reappeared, hitting the Valmese Pegasus Knight's pegasus' side, knocking the Valmese Pegasus Knight off her pegasus. This gave Cordelia an opening to finish the Valmese Pegasus Knight, before the Valmese Pegasus Knight hit the water.
"Come on Nah, help your mother out. And Druddigon, help us with Dragon Claw." Nowi said to Nah and Druddigon. "Okay Mother. "Flygon uses your Dragon Claw as well." Nah said to Nowi and Flygon, before she and Nowi turned into their dragon forms, and fired fireballs at a few Valmese Pegasus Knights.
"Druddigon/Flygon!" The two of them said, as their claws became encased in teal energy. Druddigon and Flygon then started to slash a few Valmese Soldiers that tried to attack Nowi and Nah.
That's when three Basculegions came out of the water, encased in raging waters, heading for Chrom. "Carbink, stop them with Dazzling Gleam." Anna said to Carbink, as she took out a Valemese Soldier. "Carbink." Carbink said, as she let out a blinding multi-color light.
The light blinded the Basculegions, and made them stop their attacks as they landed on the ship. "Hydreigon, care to clean them up with Dark Pulse." Cherche asked Hydreigon, as she took out a Valmese Pegasus Knight. "Hydreigon." Hydreigon said, as he fired three bursts of black rings, and hit the three Basculegions, and sent them back into the water.
"Hitmonlee use Blaze Kick." Basilio said to Hitmonlee, as he battled a few Valmese Soldiers. "Hitmonlee." Hitmonlee said, as his feet lit on fire, and he started kicking a few Valmese Soldiers.
With Severa, she was standing in front of a big Valmese Soldier that was showing off. "What a loser. Liepard use Sucker Punch." Severa said to Liepard, with an annoyed tune in her voice. "Liepard." Liepard said, as she launched at the Valmese Soldier, jabbing the Valmese Soldier in his throat, stunning the Valmese Soldier, allowing Severa to get a clean and fatal hit on the Valmese Soldier.
On the other ship, Valmese forces surrounded Daniel and Bewear. "Bewear, let's send these guys flying with Thrash." Daniel said to Bewear. "Bewear." Bewear said, as he started to swing his arms wildly, hitting the Valmese and sending them flying, and the same time Daniel started to slash through the Valmese forces.
That's when a good number of Basculegions came bursting out of the water encased in water. "Lapras freeze them with Blizzard." Grace said to lapras. "Mr. Rime, help Lapras with Ice beam." Layla said to Mr. Rime.
"Lapras/Mr. Rime." The two of them said, as Lapras fired freezing winds with snow from her mouth at the Basculegions, at the same time Mr. Rime fired a light blue beam from his cane.
The two attacks collided and froze all the Basculegions in blocks of ice. "Shiftry, finish those Basculegions with Leaf Blade." Ethan said to Shifry, as he casted a dark spell on a Valmese Soldier. "Lurantis, help Shiftry with Leaf Blade." Virion said to Lurantis, as he shot down a Valmese Pegasus Knight.
"Shiftry/Lurantis." The two of them said, as Shiftry's fans turned into glowing green blades, and Lurantis scythes became glowing green blades. Shiftry and Lurantis then started to slash the Basculegions, breaking the ice and sending the Basculegions flying into the water.
With Vaike, he and a Valmese Soldier were blocking each other's attack. "Hawlucha use Aerial Ace." Vaike said to Hawlucha. "Hawlucha." Hawlucha said, as he disappeared and then reappeared behind the Valmese Soldier, hitting the Vamlese Soldier in the back of his leg, forcing the Vamlese soldier down. This gave Vaike the opening he needed to finish the Vamlese Soldier.
"Castfrom, help me with Flamethrower." Miriel said to Castform, as she got ready to cast a fire spell at a Valmese Pegasus Knight. "Castform." Castform said, as she let out a steam of fire at the same time Miriel fired her spell. The two flames hit the Valmese Pegasus Knight, causing them to crash and burn.
With Kellam and Kecleon, as they fought a Valmese Soldier, when a Basculegion burst out of the water, with his fang glowing white and longer. Kellam noticed this. "Kecleon use Double Team." Kellam said to Kecleon. "Kecleon." Kecleon said, as he made copies of himself, dodging the Basculegion's attack.
The Basculegion kept attacking the Kecleon copies trying to find the real one. "Medicham, stop that Basculegion with Thunder Punch." Lon'qu said to Medicham, as he took out a Valmese Soldier. "Medicham." Medicham said, as his fist became encased in electricity, and he punched the Basculegion into the air.
"Thievul get rid of it with Dark Pulse." Gaius said to Thievul, as he dodged an attack from a Valmese Soldier, and rammed his blade into the Valmese Soldier. "Thievul." Thievul said, as he fired a burst of black rings, hitting the Basculegion, and sending it back into the water.
Meanwhile Gregor locked weapons with a Valmese Soldier. "Lycanroc, help me with Crunch." Gregor said to Lycanroc. "Lycanroc." Lycanroc said, as his teeth glowed white and grew. Lycanroc then bit into the Valmese Soldier leg, making him yell. That's when Gregor got his opening to finish the Valmese Soldier.
"Mimikyu use Shadow Sneak." Libra said to Mimikyu, as he charged at a Valmese Soldier. "Mimikyu." Mimikyu said, as she dived into the shadows and appeared in the shadow under the Valmese Soldier. This made the Valmese stumble, and gave Libra a clear hit in on him, finishing him.
"Primarina use Sparkling Aria." Olivia said to Primarina, as a few Valmese Soldier's charged at them. "Primarina." Primarina said, as she fired multi-color water balls, and started to sing, making the balls pop. This stunned the Valmese Soldier's as Olivia danced around them, taking them down one after another.
"Honchkrow, protect me with Steel Wing." Henry said to Honchkrow, as a Valmese Pegasus Knight charged at him. "Honchkrow." Honchkrow said, as his wing turned silver, and wrapped his wings around Henry, blocking the Valmese Pegasus Knight attack. Then Honchkrow forced the Valmese Pegasus Knight back, and gave Henry a clean shot for his dark magic attack, killing the Valmese Pegasus Knight.
"Polteagest use Strength Sap." Norie said to Polteagest, as she aimed an arrow at a Valmese Pegasus Knight. "Polteasgest." Polteasgest said, as she flew up to the Valmese Pegasus Knight's pegasus, and jabbed her spot into the pegasus, making the pegasus glow green and lose stamina. This made it easy for Norie to shoot the Valmese Pegasus Knight's pegasus, and caused the Valmese Pegasus Knight to fall out of the sky.
Meanwhile on the other ship, Basculegions burst out of water while glowing white. "Galvantula, deal with those Basculegions with Electroweb." Laurent said to Galvantula. "Galvantula." Galvantula said, as he fired webbing with electricity. The webbing trapped and stunned the Basculegions, making them fall to the deck.
From the distance, a Valmese Mage tried casting a thunder spell at Toxapex, and Madison noticed that. "Toxapex use Baneful Bunker." Madison said to Toxapex, as she fired an arrow at the Valmese Mage. but the Valmese Mage finished casting his spell, before the arrow hit him in the chest, killing me. "Toxapex." Toxapex said, as she formed a purple barrier with spikes. This barrier blocked the thunder spell, and negated the damage.
"Grapploct use Ocrolock." Theo said to Grapploct, as he had Silver dodge a Valmese Mage fire spell. "Grapploct." Grapploct said, as he moved to the Valmese Mage, and wrapped his tentacles around the Valmese Mage, preventing him from casting spells. That's when Theo rode up and finished the Valmese Mage
"Luxray use Wild Charge." Frederick said to Luxray, as they charged at Valmese forces. "Bouffalant use Horn Attack." Sully said to Bouffalant, as they followed Frederick and Luxray. "Tauros use Zen Headbutt." Stahl said to Tauros, as they followed the others.
"Luxray/Bouffalant/Tauros." The three of them said, as Luxray encased himself in electricity, Bouffalant's horns glowed white, and Tauros's forehead glowed teal. They all then started to smash their way through the Valmese forces.
With Kjelle, a few Valmese Soldiers were charging at her. "Stoutland, stop them with Play Rough." Kjelle said to Stoutland. "Stoutland." Stoutland said, as he charged at the Valmese Soldiers. Once he got close, Stoutland let out a cloud of smoke around himself and the Valmese Soldiers. After a few seconds, with yellow stars and pink hearts shooting out of the smoke, the smoke cleared, revealing all the Valmese Soldiers on the deck groaning. That's when Kjelle came up and finished the Valmese Soldiers.
Meanwhile a Valmese Pegasus Knight charged at Donnel and Mudsdale. "Mudsdale, meet her head on with High Horsepower." Donnel said to Mudsdale. "Mudsdale." Mudsdale said, as an orange outline appeared on Mudsdale, and they charged. Donnel and Mudsdale charged at the Valmese Pegasus Knight at stop speed, and when they collided, Mudsdale won, and sent the Valmese Pegasus Knight flying into the water.
"Dodrio use Fury Attack." Riken said to Dodrio, as he used his magic to blow a Valmese Mage spell book out of the Valmese hands. "Dodrio." Dodrio said, as his beaks glowed white. Dodrio then started to peck the Valmese Mage, causing the Valmese Mage a lot of pain before going over the side of the ship.
That's when one of the Basculegions broke free of the Electroweb, and his teeth glowed white and grew. The Basculegion then bit into Dodrio's right side, making Dodrio scream in pain.
"Get off him. Hatterene use Shadow Ball." Sophia said to the Basculegion and Hatterene, as she cast a fire spell. "Hatterene." Hatterene said, as she formed a ball of black energy at the end of her hat, and flung it at the Basculegion at the same time Sophia casted her fire spell.
The attack forced the Basculegion off Dodrio and back into the water, but did hurt Dodrio a bit. "Rapidash, help Dodrio with Heal Pulse." Maribelle said to Rapidash. "Rapidash." Rapidash said, as she lowered her horn to Dodrio's wound, and let out a pink pulse from her horn, healing Dodrio's wound.
Meanwhile Connor was hitting a few Valmese Soldiers. "Kingler help me with Metal Claw." Connor said to Kingler. "Kingler." Kingler said, as his large pincer turned silver, and he started to slam his pincer into a few Valmese Soldiers.
"Hitmonchan use Bullet Punch." Flavia said to Hitmonchan, as they charged at a Valmese Soldier. "Hitmonchan." Hitmonchan said, as his fist glowed sliver, and he moved at high speed. Hitmonchan then hit the Valmese Soldier in the face, stunning the Valmese Soldier. This gave Flavia an opening to finish the Valmese Soldier.
"Cinderace use Flame Charge." Panne said to Cinderace. "Diggersby, we could use help with Hammer Arm." Yarne said to Diggersby, before he and Panne transformed into their beast forms.
"Cinderace/Diggersby." The two of them said, as Cinderace encased himself in fire, and as Diggersby started to slam his ear arms into some Valmese forces, as Cinderace, Panne, and Yarne smashed through the Valmese forces.
That's when a Basculegion came out of the water, encased in water, and headed for Henry. "Honchkrow, please stop that Basculegion with Sucker Punch." Henry said to Honchkrow. "Honchkrow." Honchkrow said, as he charged at the Basculegion, and slapped it with his wing, stunning the Basculegion.
"Polteagest use Giga Drain." Norie said to Polteagest. "Polteagest." Polteagest said, as the Basculegion glowed green, and balls of green energy flowed out of the Basculegion and into Polteagest's spot.
This made the Basculegion feel weak. "Mr. Rime, get rid of that Basculegion with Energy Ball." Layla said to Mr. Rime, as they got back to fighting the Valmese forces. "Mr. Rime." Mr. Rime said, as he fired a green energy ball. The green energy ball hit the Basculegion, and sent it flying back into the water.
Back on the other boat, Daniel and his group were getting close to Ignatius, and the Valmese were doing their best to keep them back. But it wasn't doing well for them.
"Lurantis use Petal Blizzard." Virion said to Lurantis, as he aimed an arrow at a Valmese Pegasus Knight. "And Castfrom use Flamethrower." Miriel said to Castform, as she got ready to cast a fire spell at a Valmese Pegasus Knight.
"Lurantis/Castfrom." The two of them said, as Lurantis let out a flurry of petals, Castform let out a steam of fire, Virion fired his arrow, and Miriel fired her fire spell. All the attacks hit the Valmese Pegasus Knights, and killed them, causing them to crash into the water.
"Hawlucha use Flying Press." Vaike said to Hawlucha, as he locked weapons with a Valmese Soldier. "Hawlucha." Hawlucha said, as he jumped up and came down on the Valmese Soldier Vaike was locking weapons with.
"Primarina could use Ice Beam please." Olivia said to Primarina, as a few Valmese Soldiers charged at them. "Primarina." Primerina said, as she fired a light blue beam. The beam hit the floor, freezing it, and causing the Valmese Soldiers to slip. Then Olivia did some fancy moves on the ice, and killed the Valmese Soldiers.
With Kellam, a Valmese Soldier was slamming his weapon into Kellam's shield. "Kecleon use Thief." Kellam said to Kecleon. "Kecleon." Kecleon said, as he moved to the side of the Valmese Soldier, hit the Valmese Soldier arms with his tail, and stole the Valmese Soldier's weapon. With the Valmese Soldier Weapon gone, Kellam easily finished him.
For Ethan, he and a Valmese Mage were charging up a spell. "Shiftry, stun him with Bounce." Ethan said to Shiftry. "Shiftry." Shifry said, as he jumped up and came down on the Valmese Mage, then bounced off the Valmese Mage, right as Ethan casted his dark spell.
While that was going on. Lon'qu and Medicham were charging at two Valmese Soldiers. "Medicham use Force Palm." Lon'qu said to Medicham. "Medicham." Medicham said, as he dodged the one of the Valmese Soldiers attack, and slammed his palm into the Valmese Soldier's gut, sending him flying over the side of the ship, as Lon'qu finished the other Valmese Soldier.
"Lycanroc use Accelerock." Gregor said to Lycanroc, as he battled a couple Valmese Soldiers, and noticed a Valmese Mage getting ready to cast a spell at him. "Lycanroc." Lycanroc said, as he ran at high speed and rammed into the Valmese Mage's stomach, stopping the Valmese Mage from casting his spell, and sending the Valmese Mage overboard.
Then a few Basculegions came out of the water, encased in raging water. "Mimikyu use Shadow Claw." Libra said to Mimikyu, as he dodged Basculegions. "Bewear, help Mumikyu with your Shadow Claw." Daniel said to Bewear, as he dodged the Basculegions. "And Thievul we could use a little Thief Action as well." Gaius said to Thievul, as he dodge the Basculegions.
"Mimikyu/Bewear/Thievul." The three of them said, as Mimikyu and Bewaers claws/paws became encased in black energy with a purple outline. Then Mimikyu and Bewear started to slash the Basculegions back into the water, as Thievul hit them away with his tail.
That's when the last of the Valmese forces came running up to them. "Lapras, get rid of them with Hyper Voice." Grace said to Lapras. "LAPRAS!" Lapras roared, sending out a soundwave. The soundwave sent the last of the valmese forces over the side of the ship and into the sea.
That's when Ignatius walked to everyone. "So your pups that dare try and raid my ship." Ignatius said to everyone. "We are. And you can't stop us." Vaike said to Ignatius. "Are you sure? You have yet seen our news power. Bring them out!" Ignatius said, before baning his shield and spear into the deck.
That's when two large lizards came out from inside the ship. Each lizard had long black legs with three claw toes, a long light blue tail, yellow fins on the back of their heads, yellow like cap, thin light blue arm with large black hands, dark blue chest with a white diamond belly, yellow eyes with yellow eyelids. They were in chains, and had to people wrapped in red robes, and in their hands was a small staff with a black stone in
"What are those?" Vaike asked. "Their Inteleons." Daniel said to Valike pulling out his Pokedex.
Inteleon.
The Secret Agent Pokemon.
Water.
It Has Many Hidden Capabilities, Such As Fingertips That Can Shoot Water And A Membrane On Its Back That It Can Use To Glide Through The Air.
"So care to tell us what's so special about them?" Daniel asked Ignatius. "Allow them to show you our new power." Ignatius said to Daniel, as the black stones let out Dynamax energy that flowed into the Inteleon's before shattering.
The Inteleons then got a little bigger, but not as big as their tails which were massive, and had dark blue fins in a corkscrew shape. The Inteleons then bend their tails, making them move to the sky with their tails being a platform above the red clouds. Then the Inteleons formed a large water barrel and attacked them to their right index finger.
"Witness our new power. Now we too have giants." Ignatius said to Daniel, as the Inteleons aimed their barrels to the sky and fired them. That's when the sky became full of grey clouds and large crunches of ice started to fall from the sky, shaking the waters and breaking the upper deck of the ships they were fighting in.
"This is bad. This nut is going to crush all of us." Vaike said to everyone. "I guess it's time to fight fire with fire. Or maybe "giant against giant" as the case maybe." Layla said to everyone. "Well Grace, you ready?" Ethan asked Grace.
"Me?" Grace asked Ethan. "Your Lapras is the best one for Gigantamax in this environment." Ethan said to Grace. "All right, let's do it." Grace said, as Daniel, Ethan, and Layla gathered around Grace and let Dynamax energy that flowed from them into her. The energy then went into Lapras.
Lapras then grew, her body hadn't changed much, but her shell changed, almost like it was a round cruise ship, and around her was ice formed into music sheet lines, with ice crystals as music notes.
Connor noticed Lapras Gigantamax. "Guys I need to help my mother. Please lend me your Dynamax powers." Connor said to Theo, Sophia, and Madison. "Sure kid. You're probably the only one who can help her." Madison said to Connor, as she, Theo, and Sophia gathered around Connor let Dynamax energy that flowed from them into him. Then Connor made the energy flow into Kingler.
King then grew with his legs become longer with a fine point foot, his arms stretched out into three parts, his arms and legs had a few spikes sticking out of it, his right pincer was kinda small, but his left pincer was as big as him with it being very thick and the inside had 8 large bumps, lastly Kingler had a massive bear made of white bubbles.
Kingler then moved into Lapras back. "Okay let's do this. Kingler use MAX KNUCKLES!" Connor said to Kingler. "KINGLER!" Kingler said, as he swung his massive pincer at the Inteleons. But the Inteleons jumped away to another ship.
From that other ship, one of the Inteleon's fired a massive guts of winds from his water barrel, and the other one fired a swarm of multi color butterflies from his water barrel.
"Lapras protect everyone with G-MAX RESONANCE!" Grace said to Lapras. "LAPRAS!" Lapras said, as she made large crunches of ice to fall from the sky. The ice hit all of the butterflies and took them out, and an aurora veil formed around everyone, making the massive guys of wind turn into a harsh breeze.
"Nice work mom. Kingler use G-MAX FOAM BURST!" Connor said to Grace and Kingler. "KINGLER!" Kingler said, as he fired a massive burst of foam from his mouth.
But the Inteleon's then jumped out of the way of the foam. "Not this time Kingler use MAX STEELSPIKE!" Connor said to Kingler. "KINGLER!" Kingler said, as he slammed his large pincer into the water, making large metal spikes pop out of the water.
But the Inteleon's used their tails to dodge the spikes, by wrapping the end of their tail around the spikes before jumping back onto another ship. "Sorry I wasn't much help mom." Connor said, as Kingler shrunk down to normal.
"Lapras use MAX GEYSER!" Grace said to Lapras. "LAPRAS!" Lapras said, as she fired a massive surge of water, making it rain.
That's when the Inteleons aimed and fired their water barrels at the massive surge of water. The water shots went through the surge of water, breaking it, and hit Lapras in the chest, forcing Lapras back. Then the Inteleons started to shrink.
"Just what I was waiting for. Lapras use MAX STRIKE!" Grace said to Lapras. "LAPRAS!" Lapras said, as she let out a massive amount of energy under the shrinking Inteleons. This caused the Ineleons to be sent flying off into the distance.
"Arrogant Pups! You sent our beasts flying. I'll make you all pay for these. The seas are my home, and they will be your grave!" Ignatius said to everyone, as he charged at everyone. "We'll see about that. Bewear use Drain Punch!" Daniel said to Ingatius and Bewear, as he and Bewear charged at Ignatius.
"Bewear." Bewear said, as his fist started to glow green. Bewear then slammed his fist in Ignatius' shield leaving a few cracks, as Daniel locked weapons with Ignatius.
"Bewear, break that shield and armor with Thrash." Daniel said to Bewear, as he forced Ignatius' weapon out of his hands. "Bewear!" Bewear said, as he started to swing his arms around wildly, hitting Ignatius all over his body. Ignatius used his shield to block most of the attacks, but the shield broke half way through the attack. Then Bewear started to smash through Ignatius' armor, and after a bit, Bewear was able to break a hole into Ignatius's chest armor. Daniel lunged, and drove his blade into Ignatius' chest finishing him.
"Strike me down, and ten will take my place… You… have… lost!" Ignatius said to Daniel, with dying breath. "We haven't lost yet." Daniel said to Ignatius, as he pulled out his blade and before he and Bewear ran back to their ship.
Chrom saw Ignatius fall. "Robin! Their general has fallen! I'm giving the signal!" Chrom said to Robin. "At least wait until we're back on our ship!" Simon said to Chrom, as they all started to run back to their ship.
After everyone got onboard, Chrom sent the signal. "All appointed ships, change course! Head right at them! Ramming speed!" Chrom said to the ships. "Gods and thunder! Any second now!" A soldier said, as the ships full of oil charged.
"Steady… Steaaaady…" Chrom said as the ships got closer. "They're right on top of them!" The soldier said. "TURN AWAY! NOW!" Chrom yelled. That's when the man at the helm made a sharp turn and got them out of there, right as the oil ships crashed.
In a matter of minutes, the Valmese's fleet was set ablaze, and all of Basculegion helped the Pokemon, saving them, and left the Valmese to face the fate of the blazing alone.
"The sea itself is on fire!" Lissa said to everyone, as they looked at the sea. "And while it's horrifying, it got the job done. The Valmese fleet." Madison said to everyone. "It worked! It worked!" Frederick said to everyone.
"Only you could hatch such a brilliant scheme, Robin. Who else would desert half our vessels and turn them into flaming cannonballs? And there was still enough room on the remaining ships for all our troops. It was so simple, and yet the Valmese never saw it coming. They never considered anyone might be willing to sacrifice half a fleet." Flavia said to Robin.
"Makes sense, during the battle, I noticed the Valmese put more stock in force and numbers then in tactics. That's how we won, by being smarter than stronger." Simon said to everyone.
"We may have won the day, but the war still looms. We must continue on and seize control of their main harbor." Chrom said to everyone. "Aye, boy! I've had enough of the smoke and smell here for one lifetime." Basilio said to Chrom. "Full speed for Valm!" Chrom said to everyone.
