Amaris vs Zeus

Amaris was upset over what Gandalf told her, she decided to go around the town to pick up revival seeds and met Irwin and Robin, she ran over to them and she asked, "What are you guys doing here? Did they tell you the same thing?"

Robin answered, "Mom told me not to fight Zeus because I'm not strong enough."

Irwin stated, "Same with me mates. I'd rather not be barbequed by the bird that controls the lightning. I'm a water type and I wouldn't last a full minute."

Akantha cried, "I can take over your position Irwin and you can stall Gandalf for us."

Irwin asked Akantha, "How are we going to get past Gandalf, he's a bloke with 3000 IQ and disobeying his orders would get us in trouble, plus you're a grass type, Zeus can easily whip up a whirlwind or peck you off the mountain!"

Akantha retorted, "We can ask Hercules, he's been training all types of Pokemon so he can help with the weaknesses of what we're going up against."

The quartet entered the dojo and Hercules was looking into his book and he found a page about electric/flying Pokémon and he said, "Taking these Pokémon types into account, it's best you take rock and ice types."

Irwin asked, "Does the move ice beam work?"

Hercules answered, "Yes. I'll teach you, but I hope you're not going up against one of the three birds, you'd be roasted alive."

Irwin answered as he crossed his clawed fingers behind his hand, "Don't worry I'm not."

Hercules instructed, "Keep calm and blow."

Irwin took a deep breath and suddenly a small light blue beam emanated from his mouth and he saw Akantha's vine frozen.

Hercules cried, "Excellent work Irwin. Remember this move is not to taken for granted. Use it on Pokémon that are weakened by that."

Irwin said, "Yes sir."

Amaris smiled, "Brilliant. Now how are going to get past Gandalf?"

Badru cried as he introduced himself and Luna, "We can help. I'm Badru the meowth, this is my partner Luna. We can help. I can lie for you."

Robin asked, "Can we trust these guys?"

Amaris answered, "We'll have to. If we want to get passed Mr. Hocus Pocus, we have to listen to them."

Badru said, "You guys can't go without a rock type. I'm sending you my new friend, Markov."

A rock-like Pokémon known as a geodude marched over and he said, "The name's Markov. I have a specialty against electric Pokemon, now where are going to?"

Amaris answered, "To Mt. Thunder so we can save Hannibal."

Markov cried, "Are you insane?! No one dared to face off the lightning of justice! He and his brothers are Phoenix the fire of renewal, and Laufey the ice of reason are the legendary birds and they can take you down in mere seconds."

Amaris cried, "Markov we can't leave Hannibal behind."

Markov sighed in reluctantly, "I'll help you guys, but we can't tell anyone."

Gandalf cried, "Luna, Badru. I need to talk with you."

Amaris and her team fled to Mt. Thunder. The mountain had thunderstorms covering the peak, much to Irwin's anxiety.

She said, "We'll have to infiltrate it from the inside."

Irwin asked, "What if it doesn't work? Our parents will be really angrier than a kangaskan before we can explain."

Robin said in a lively tone, "Come on lighten up Irwin, at least we get to brag to the town on how we defeated Zeus."

Irwin said, "You're right. Let's show Zeus that we're not leaving without Hannibal."

The quartet entered the mountain and just as they reached a peak they came across a statue of a kangaroo like Pokémon.

Amaris asked, "What is that statue?"

Robin answered, "My dad told me that it's a checkpoint where you store anything valuable say like a ribbon or something and you want to preserve it forever, you preserve it in here."

Irwin said, "Me mum told me that statue has also been used to recover your strength for the upper parts ahead."

He turned to Markov and asked, "Just curious, what kind of moves do you have?"

Markov answered, "I have a move called rock throw so I can easily attack the enemies of lightning and fire."

Amaris asked, "Ready for the peak of the battle?"

Robin cried, "Yes. We'll be able to save Hannibal."

When the quartet reached the mountain's peak Zeus flew down and he said, "So you have come here to save the shiftry."

Irwin cried, "If you let him go now, we can leave the mountain and we won't bother you anymore."

Zeus snarled, "You are to face me in a fight. If I win, you are not to return to this mountain again. However if you win, I will let Hannibal go."

Amaris unleashed a thunder wave, but it didn't work as Zeus started with her by pecking at her Irwin cried, "Oi bird bloke over here!"

He unleashed the ice beam he was taught and the ice beam froze Zeus's beak, Zeus broke off the ice and targeted Robin for his thunder strike move. Irwin pushed him out of the way and felt electricity hurting the totodile.

Robin decided to peck Zeus in anger as Markov threw heavy rocks at the electric bird.

Irwin pulled out a reviver seed and felt energized to unleash an ice beam at Zeus.

Amaris decided to pull off a quick attack.

Zeus was getting fed up that unleashed a voltage and it knocked everyone, but Amaris and Markov out cold.

Amaris stared in shock and fear and Zeus was about to release an electrical current, he felt as if he became immobile.

It was Gandalf and the parents of Robin and Irwin.

Zeus cried, "These children have fought well so as promised Hannibal now a freed Pokémon.

Robin came to and saw Hannibal.

He cried, "Hannibal."

Hannibal was about to strike Zeus, but Zeus was preparing to take flight.

Zeus remarked before leaving the heroes, "I admire your bravery, but come back when you are older and wiser."

He flew off into the lightning infested skies to rest.

Robin walked over to his father and he spoke, "Dad, I-."

Mary stated, "You almost made me worried sick young man."

Robin said, "Mom, I'm sorry."

John retorted in a stern voice, "Let's go home, Richard."

Irwin asked Robin, "Your name's Richard?"

Robin answered, "That's my real name, though I preferred to be called Robin."

They were about to head off the mountain when Gandalf asked Amaris, "You mean that you're a human girl?"

Amaris answered bluntly, "Yes sir. I am. How do I find out more information about my life?"

Irwin cried, "There's a shaman who lives on a canyon and stares at the sun unblinking."

Gandalf stated, "That Pokémon is a xatu who goes by the name of Thoth, but for now we should get home for rest."

Later that night, Robin was pondering what Gandalf said about Amaris, but his thoughts broke once he heard his father.

John cried, "Richard!"

Robin walked to the living room where his father was.

His father was looking at him in disappointment as he said, "Richard John Blaze-wing, I'm very disappointed in you."

Robin said in a sullen, "I know dad."

John retorted, "You could have been hurt or dead. You knowingly travelled to Mt. Thunder when we warned you not to. What's worse is that you could have gotten Irwin fried."

Robin answered, "I couldn't leave Hannibal in Zeus's possession."

John answered back, "I know you mean well Robin, but that's still not an excuse to defy what your parents say. We both want what's best for you as well. I strongly advise that you don't act in hasty manner."

Robin said, "Okay. Tomorrow, I'm heading to a canyon to meet the Pokémon shaman; he'll help answer my questions on Amaris."

John retorted, "If you're going there, you need to check with Hercules on what Pokémon would be there."

Author's Notes: Looks like Team Unity is going to have a talk with the shaman of the Pokemon world, Thoth the xatu in the next chapter.
