Chapter 10; Awaken Harriet / Crown of the Lust King
Location; Shujin Academy, Aoyama-Itchome
After school the day after they found the treasure. Ren and the others were on the school's roof and starting a meeting. Ryuji said as the Pokemon were playing behind them. "Tomorrow's finally the day."
"So we send the calling card in the morning… and carry out the plan by the end of the day, right?" Ann said before Morgana said. "Correct, so… Are you worried?" Morgana said that last part while looking at Ren. Ren cracked a grin and said. "I'm not worried, what about you guys?"
"I'm ready!" Ryuji and Ann said at the same time. Aqua was a little worried, because she couldn't really fight, but she still gave Ren a thumbs up. Morgana then said to them. "Perfect. That just leaves one thing. Who's going to write the card?"
"Leave it to me!" Ryuji said and Ann said. "Why?"
"Why? Why wouldn't it be me!?"
"This is important. Are you sure you can handle the pressure?" Ann said before Morgana said. "I must agree."
"Then Ryuji, text me your thoughts and I'll make the card." Aqua said and Morgana said. "That sounds like a better idea."
"No way, I want to do it!"
"Ryuji, just work with Aqua, please." Ren said and while a little mad, Ryuji agreed and then they returned their Pokemon to their Pokeballs they all went home to get ready for the battle for tomorrow.
Location; Aqua House, Yongen-Jaya
When Aqua got home, she let her Pokemon out and was waiting for Ryuji text while she had a red card and sitting on the dinner table. As Ryuji was taking so long to text her, Phanpy jumped into Aqua lap and said. [Are you ok, Aqua?]
"Yeah, but I feel like the weak link in the group."
"Because you are." The person in red said as the whole house turned red. Aqua and her Pokemon looked around and saw the person in red drinking tea on the other side of Aqua's dinner table. The person in red finished her tea and said to Aqua. "You might have more Pokemon then them, for now anyway, but they can fight and in the coming battle you'll be dead weight and be the reason you all will die tomorrow."
"Why do you think I'll be the reason we'll die?" Aqua said as she picked up Phanpy and made her way to the person in red. The person in red put down her cup and said. "Because when a treasure takes physical form, the Shadow is pushed to its limits. So it can keep its treasure safe from thieves. And your Z-Moves will be just fancy rocks because of the Shadow's extra power."
"What do you mean?" Aqua said before blinking and the person in red disappeared. As the house was back to its normal colors, Aqua was a little frustrated, but tried to figure out what she meant. Ryuji then texted Aqua his ideas and then Aqua started to make the calling card.
Location; Shujin Academy, Aoyama-Itchome
Ann walked by a crowd of people looking at Aqua calling cards, which were posted all on the student bulletin board and had Ren's mask and a top hat over the mask. The card had this on it. "Sir Suguru Kamoshida, the False King of Shujin Academy. Your lust for power and bodies have hurt the many lives here at Shujin Academy. So in the name of Arceus, we the Phantom Thief of Heart will steal your distorted desires and make you confess your sins."
Ann then walked over to Ren, Aqua, Morgana and Ryuji, who were all waiting close to the bulletin board. "That was a good calling card Aqua. But who's Arceus?"
"Thanks, and Arceus is the god of my homeworld." Aqua said before they heard the students talking about the Calling Card and wondering if it was related to the rumors about Kamoshida. Everyone stopped when Kamoshida walked up to the bulletin board. "Who's responsible for this!?" Kamoshida yelled at everyone. Morgana cracked a smile and said. "...Look at that. A predictable reaction for someone who knows what we mean by distorted desires."
"I think it's hitting him pretty hard." Ryuji said Kamoshida started looking around with an angry face, looking for the person who made them. Everyone ran away and Kamoshida just turned around and saw Ren and the others. "...Was it you all!?"
"What're you talking about?" Ren said, which made Kamoshida even more mad. Kamoshida then said to them. "So, you're playing dumb? Eh, it's not a problem. You'll be expelled soon anyway." In the depths of Kamoshida's mind, his Shadow side said, not caring or knowing that they didn't hear him. "Come… Steal it, if you can!" Then everything returned to normal and Kamoshida left them. Morgana then said to everyone. "Judging from Kamoshida's response… I'm sure we had an effect on his Palace!"
"Does that mean the Treasure's appeared!? We'll be able to get it today, right?" Ann said before Morgana said. "It's not just "today". It's ONLY today."
"Come again?" Aqua said before Morgana said. "The impact of seeing a calling card doesn't last long, and it cannot be repeated."
"One day's more than enough for us!" Ryuji said as they all went to class.
Location; The Castle of Lust
After school, they all were inside the Palace and thanks to Keeper, they reached the Throne room with great ease. But the whole area was void of guards and Kamoshida Shadow. "Where is everyone?" Keeper said as she was with Brionne. Joker, who had Zorua out, said to everyone. "Keep your guard up guys. I have a bad feeling about this."
"You worry too much." Skull said as he and Shinx ran ahead of them. "They are so much alike." Panther said and Litleo agreed with her partner. "We don't have time to be standing around." Mona said as he and Nincada ran to the treasure room too. Inside the treasure room, they all saw a gigantic king's crown. As the others wondered about the crown, Mona laughed and said. "Aww yeeeaaaah! The Treasure has appeared!"
"This is the Treasure?" Keeper said before Skull said. "Man, it's huge!"
"What do you think!? It's just as I said! Now we can steal it! Ahh…. this shine brings tears to my eyes…" Mona said before Panther said. "...It kinda pisses me off. Why's it so pretty? Isn't this Kamoshida desires?"
"T-Treasure…" Mona said as his eyes started to sparkle. All of them looked at him and Nincada said to his partner. [Mona? Are you ok?]
"Uh, the cat's acting awfully excited." Skull said before Mona jumped onto the treasure. Mona then acted like a cat and Joker said. "You're way too excited."
"Yeah, get off." Keeper said as she removed Mona from the treasure. Mona then returned to normal and Keeper put him down. "Oh, um, yeah… Forgive me for displaying such an insolent sight in front of ladies…" Mona said, bowing his head. Panther then said to Mona. "You were completely out of character too. What was that about?"
"I couldn't stop it either… To think I'd drawn to human desires this much… Doesn't that prove that I'm human!?" Mona said and Skull said. "How should we know!?"
"Alright that's enough. We need to get this thing out of here." Keeper said before Skull said. "How?"
"We'll have to carry it. Keeper the back, Skull the right, Panther the left, and Mona? You and the Pokemon will keep an eye out for any trouble and clear the way for us." Joker said as he was ready to grab the treasure. The others joined him and they all grabbed the treasure at the same time. As they carried the treasure, which was heavy, out of the room, Mona smiled with how well thinks we're going and to have all of these allies. As the Pokemon help cleared the way, they almost reached the throne room door, when they heard a female voice say. "Go, go! Let's go! Ka-mo-shida!"
[Was that Panther's voice?] Litleo said as a volleyball knocked the treasure out of their hands. As all of them looked at the treasure, Shadow Kamoshida jumped over them and landed where his throne was, until the Pokemon got out of the way for their partners. They didn't see Shadow Kamoshida, until he shrunk the crown and it was in his right hand. Shadow Kamoshida then said to them as the fake Ann appeared and wrapped around his left side. "I won't let anyone take this! This proves that I am the king of this castle– it is the core of this world!"
"That rat bastard… That's how he sees me, isn't it!?" Panther said before Skull said to Shadow Kamoshida. "Yo, pervert. Were you waiting to ambush us?"
"I just made it easy to find you. I'll dispose of you myself. Right here, right now."
"That's our line, you sexually-harassing d-bag!" Skull said before Shadow Kamoshida said. "What a selfish misunderstanding…"
"How is it a misunderstanding!? You were doing things that you kept secret from others!" Panther said and Shadow Kamoshida said. "People around me are the ones who kept it secret. Adults who want to share in my accomplishments, students who have the drive to become winners… They willingly protect me so that we all may profit from it."
"They were protecting you, they were scared of you, but after we take that, you take down your own allies and gave closer to the people you've hurt." Keeper said as the Pokemon started to growl at Shadow Kamoshida, who said. "You are more stupid, then that naive brat that tried to kill herself!"
"True, Shiho's a total idiot… letting you manipulate her, trying to commit suicide… And I'm even more of a dumbass for not realizing that! But no matter what kind of fool someone might be… They don't need your permission to live their lives!" Panther yelled and Litleo growled at Shadow Kamoshida. Shadow Kamoshida got mad and said. "Drop the attitude, you mediocre peasant! There is no wrong in using my gifts for gain! I'm a cut above all other humans!"
"Above"? You mean beneath. You're a goddamn demon obsessed with your sick desires!" Panther said before Shadow Kamoshida started to laugh. They all looked at one another as red light surrounded Shadow Kamoshida. "That's right. I'm not you… I am a demon who rules this world!" Shadow Kamoshida said before he and the fake Ann were swallowed by a red and black liquid. The liquid then started to growl and when it was gone, Shadow Kamoshida was now a giant pink demon with four arms, and four slaves around him. A cup with wine and the fake Ann in his top right hand, a whip in his top left hand, a gold knife in his bottom right, a gold fork in the left hand, and a gold trophy that had ladies legs inside of it. Skull then said as they all backed up. Shadow Kamoshida then said to them, as everyone backed up a little. "I'm allowed to do whatever the hell I want!"
"Let's finish this, everyone!" Joker said as Shadow Kamoshida roared. All of the Pokemon used their long-range attacks on Shadow Kamoshida, minus Nincada and Shinx. Brionne used Disarming Voice, Zorua used Hidden Power, and Litleo used Ember. But Shadow Kamoshida used his whip to knock those attacks away. Shadow Kamoshida then said to them. "You goddamn, no-good, shity brats!"
"Scatter!" Joker said as everyone dodged Shadow Kamoshida's gold knife. "Look! The Treasure's over there!" Mona said, pointing at the treasure, which had returned to normal size and was on Shadow Kamoshida's head. Joker then said to Mona, as he and the others pulled out their guns. "Mona, you and Nincada get that crown, the rest of us will keep him busy."
"Got it." Mona said as he and Nincada disappeared. Shadow Kamoshida then orders his slaves to launch volleyballs at the thieves. Joker, Panther, and Skull used their guns to shoot down the volleyballs. As for Keeper, she shot Shadow Kamoshida's top left arm shoulder and dropped the whip. Shadow Kamoshida roared, but then used his fork and knife to take out a pair of legs from the trophy. He then ate the legs and the hole, Keeper made in Shadow Kamoshida's shoulder, disappeared. "Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. That hits the spot. Come at me, you pieces of shit! I ain't letting you sleep night." Shadow Kamoshida said as he was looking for them. Panther then said as they hid behind a pillar. "How are we going to defeat him, if the things in that trophy heals him?!"
"We have to destroy that first." Keeper said before Skull said. "And how do we do that?"
"With this." Joker said, pulling out his Dark-Type Z-Crystal and putting it on his Z-Ring. Keeper go the idea and said. "Oh, I get it. You're going to use Black Hole Eclipse to destroy the trophy."
"Yes, but I need you guys to cover me so Zorua and I can do it.."
"Got it." Skull said as he, Panther, Keeper and their Pokemon came out of cover and attacked. "Carmen, Agi. Litleo Ember." Panther said as she attacked the left arms. "Captain Kidd, Zio. Shinx, Spark." Skull said as he attacked the right arms. "Brionne, Bubble Beam." Keeper said as she attacked the head. Shadow Kamoshida used this gear to block the attacks. Joker and Zorua got out of cover. "Darkness! Rise up, and swallow all that stands before you!" Joker said as energy went out of him and entered Zorua. "Go, Black Hole Eclipse!" Joker said as Zorua made a small black hole and fired it above Shadow Kamoshida. It then got bigger and tried to pull the trophy in. But Shadow Kamoshida, dropped everything he was holding and then used his bottom hands to hold the trophy down, and his top hands to hold onto this crown. As everything around Shadow Kamoshida's flew into the black hole. Arsene appeared and kicked the hands off of the trophy, then kicked the trophy into the black hole. As the trophy entered the black hole, Arsene shot some red lights into the black hole which made it glow red and get bigger. A few seconds later, the black hole exploded, destroying the roof and the whole area was covered with pieces of the roof and all of Shadow Kamoshida's things. In that moment, Mona and Nincada appeared, after attacking Shadow Kamoshida's hands, and pushed the treasure of his head. As Shadow Kamoshida was trying to make sense of the situation.
Mona then said to everyone as they landed with the others. "Now everyone uses your Z-Moves." Everyone put their Z-Crystals into their Z-Ring, started their chants, and did their poses. "Our fury ignited! Our wrath ablaze! We'll burn the lies! And you along with them!" Panther said as energy exited her and entered Litleo. "Go, Inferno Overdrive!" Panther said as Carmen appeared. Carmen and Litleo, together they created a big pink ball of fire. They then fired the fireball and it hit Shadow Kamoshida's left arms. "Coursing through our veins! We strike like thunder! And are fast as lightning!" Skull said as energy excited him and entered Shinx. "Go, Gigavolt Havoc!" Skull said as Captain Kidd appeared. Shinx sent electricity into Captain Kidd's cannon hand, and the cannon started to spark with electricity. Kidd then fired it and it hit the middle of Shadow Kamoshida's chest. "Watch as we float like a butterfly and sting like a bee." Moan said as energy excited him and entered Nincada "Go, Savage Spin-Out!" Mona said as Zorro appeared. Nincada then shot out a web that wrapped around Shadow Kamoshida's head. Nincada's turn made the head hit the right and left side of the room, and then Zorro and Nincada slashed off the webs and Shadow Kamoshida's horns. "Now watch as we call forth the power of the mighty sea." Keeper said, but the energy didn't come out of her and entered Brionne. As Keeper slapped her Z-Ring, Joker said as he, the other thieves, and the Pokemon were trying to catch their breath. "Keeper, what's wrong?"
"I don't know!?" Keeper said before remembering what the person in red said yesterday. Keeper then said to them. "Oh, no! By sending the calling card, Z-Moves can't work in a Palace with the Shadow pushed to its limits."
"Then how can we do it?" Skull said before Panther came up with an idea. "Maybe our Persona helped us and gave us more power."
"You filthy brats!" Shadow Kamoshida said as he got up from his damages. Everyone forgot about Shadow Kamoshida and Shadow Kamoshida said to them, still feeling pain from all of the Z-Moves. "How dare you keep defying me… Looks like I gotta bring out the big guns! Slaves! Bring over you-know-what!" Then Kamoshida's cognitive of Shiho, who was wearing something that was a mix of a white bunny suit and a swimsuit, and Mishima, who was wearing a destroyed school uniform, appeared. They were surprised to see them, and the giant volleyball they were carrying. "Time for my killshot from when I was active and rocking it! Killshot… as in I'll make the kill!" Shadow Kamoshida said as Shiho and Mishima passed the volleyball to Shadow Kamoshida. Shadow Kamoshida jumped up and said. "Gold Medal Spike!" Shadow Kamoshida hit the ball and it not only glowed gold, but was going at them with great speed. Brionne, in the split seconds before the volleyball hit them, she put Keeper into a bubble. So when the volleyball hit the ground, Keeper was pushed away with some damage. When the bubble popped, Keeper saw all of them down on the ground with a lot of damage. As Keeper shook with fear, Shadow Kamoshida laughed, then said as he put the treasure back on his head and Shiho and Mishima left to get another ball.. "Once I get that next ball. I'll kill you all and then everyone in my kingdom will be my slave!"
"No, this can't be happening." Keeper said as she fell to her knees. "Will you just kneel there and do nothing?" A female voice said and Keeper head started to ring. Keeper looked around for the owner of that voice, but she didn't see anyone and the voice said to her. "Will you just run away and ignore what is happening?"
"No." Keeper said getting up, but holding her head as the ringing got louder. The voice then said. "Will you always return to hell to save your people from it?"
"Yes, I will!"
"Then in good faith, let us form the contract!" The voice said as the ringing started to hurt Keeper and made her scream. Everyone turned to her and the voice said to her, and her alone. "I am thou, thou art I… Today you are free for the chains that bind you. So in the name of our lord, you will walk in darkness and save all that are chained down by human greed. Now start your mission!" Then everyone saw Keeper have a red mask that looked like a knight's helmet, but it didn't cover her mouth, or anything below it. Keeper then ripped off the mask and then she was covered with blue flames. When the flames died down, they all saw that Keeper was wearing a red gauntlet that looked like her other one, a red chest plate, a pair of red boots, and black spandex that was under her armor and covered everything from the neck down. And behind Keeper was a woman that was black cloak over her blue dress, a big blue hat on her head, and was carrying an American Civil War Musket. Mona then said as everyone was very surprised to see Keeper summon a Persona. "Now she has a Persona!?"
"Kamoshida!? It's time for you to pay. Go, Harriet, use Lunge!" Keeper said as Harriet attacked Shadow Kamoshida and hit his face with her rifle like a baseball bat. "What's the holdup? Where's my ball!?" Shadow Kamoshida said at the end of his ropes, as Shiho and Mishima appeared with another ball. But before they could pass the ball to Shadow Kamoshida, Keeper pulled out a spear that had a curved blade, and cut them down. It did hurt Panther to see that, but she knew that the Shiho she saw wasn't her friend, but it did remind her of what happened to Shiho. As Shadow Kamoshida looked around for any slaves he could use, Keeper jumped back to Brionna and said pulling out Brionne Pokeball. "Thanks for the save, Brionne. Get some rest."
[You're welcome, and thank you.] Brionne said as Keeper returned Brionne to her Pokeball. Keeper then let out Fletchinder and said to him. "You want to get some payback for Brionne and everyone else?"
[Oh, yeah.] Fletchinder said as Keeper put the Flying-Type Z-Crystal into her Z-Ring. "We reach out to the sky and strike, with the force of a hurricane." Keeper said as energy exited her and entered Fletchinder. "Go, Supersonic Skystrike!" Fletchinder and Harriet flew up high into the air and in the air, Fletchinder entered Harriet's rifle. Harriet then aimed and fired Fletchinder at Shadow Kamoshida's head. Shadow Kamoshida tried to hit Fletchinder away like a volleyball, but he missed Fletchinder. So Fletchinder hit the center of Shadow Kamoshida face hard and together they hit the ground hard. After that, Shadow Kamoshida disappeared and the treasure rolled to them. As everyone was getting up, the treasure shrunk down so one person could carry it. But before any of them could grab it, Shadow Kamoshida appeared again and grabbed the treasure again. But unlike last time, Shadow Kamoshida was scared and his cloak and shoes were ripped to shreds. He then ran away and Skull said. "Hey!"
"Give that back!" Joker said as they ran after him before he was trapped on a balcony. Panther then said as she took a few steps ahead of the others. "What's wrong? Not running away? Why don't you run? Aren't you a great athlete?"
"It's always been like this… all those goddamn hyenas forcing their expectation on me! I'm doing this all for them! What's wrong about demanding a reward for that!?" Shadow Kamoshida said before Keeper said as Harriet turned back into Keeper's mask. "Reward! You ruin lives, because they didn't follow you, a run of the mill gym teacher who can't do anything other than volleyball." Shadow Kamoshida got mad, but backed away in fear after Keeper stomped her right foot. Shadow Kamoshida backed up to the balcony and saw how high his throne room was. Panther then said as the fear in Shadow Kamoshida grew. "Scared? Right now, you're seeing the same view that Shiho did. I'm sure she was scared too… except she had no choice but to jump… What will you do? Will you jump? Or would you rather die here?" Panther then summoned Carmen and Carmen let two fireballs. Mona then said to Panther. "Do you want to finish him off? It's your call."
"No, please wait! I beg you… Just forgive me please!" Shadow Kamoshida pegged before Panther said. "Shut up. I bet everyone told you the same. But you… you took everything from them!" Carmen fired the fireballs and they hit the right and left side of Shadow Kamoshida. Shadow Kamoshida knew this was over, so he got knees and said. "I accept defeat… You want this? Take it." Shadow Kamoshida then threw Joker the treasure and Joker caught it. Shadow Kamoshida then said to them. "Go ahead and finish me off… You do that… and my real self will go down too… You have that right since you've won…" Panther then caused Carmen to fire a fireball at Shadow Kamoshida. The others panicked, thinking she was aiming at Shadow Kamoshida, but she was aiming next to him. Panther then recalled Carmen and said. "If his mind shuts down, he can't admit his crimes."
"You're kind, Lady Ann…" Mona said as others caught their breath. Shadow Kamoshida then said as he started to cry. "I've lost. You're through when you lose… What am I– What am I supposed to do now?"
"You can start by atone for your sins." Joker said and the words reached Shadow Kamoshida. As Shadow Kamoshida started to fade away and released yellow lights, he said to everyone. "All right… I will leave now and return to my real self… I'll make certain that I–" Then he was gone. But the danger wasn't over. The whole area started to shake and Keeper said to Mona. "Mona, what's going on!?"
"A Palace collapses after the treasure or the Palace ruler is gone." Mona said before Skull yells. "And we are learning about this NOW!" Then everything started to fall apart. Keeper tried to use her gauntlet to get them out, but it wasn't working, so they had no choice, but to run out of their area. They were dodging falling drapery and were mostly scared, minus Mona, who turned into a cat, and Nincada was riding on Joker's shoulders. During the escape, Skull's right leg started to act up again. It wasn't a problem, until Skull fell down. [RYUJI!] Shinx yelled as everyone stopped, but only Shinx was close to Skull. Shinx got under Skull and tried to carry him out, as the drapery started to close in on them. So in the heat of the moment, Shinx started to glow blue and roared as he started to carry Skull away. As Shinx and Skull were now ahead of them, Panther said as they were almost at the exit. "What just happened!?"
"Talk later, run now!" Keeper said as they reached the exit.
Location; Shujin Academy, Aoyama-Itchome
Outside, they were all in the alleyway and they all looked at Shinx, who was now taller, he had two rings on its front paws, and had black hair around its neck and head. As Ryuji petted Shinx, he said to Aqua. "Whoa! Aqua what happened to Shinx?"
"Looks like Shinx Evolved."
"Evolved?" Ann said as Aqua pulled out her phone. Aqua then said as Rotom scanned Shinx. "You see, Pokemon don't grow like us. After gaining experience, the right conditions are met, or in the heat of the moment, like Ryuji falling and almost getting crushed. They turn into a bigger, stronger Pokemon than they were before."
"Do all Pokemon evolve?" Ren asked Aqua and Aqua said. "At least all Pokemon minus ⅛ can evolve. If you don't include Pokemon not wanting to evolve, or people that don't want to evolve their Pokemon."
"Why? If Pokemon get stronger, then won't they all want to evolve?" Ryuji said and Aqua said. "Two reasons, one evolving is permanent, so Shinx will never go back to being a Shinx. And two, it is a choice, and forcing that choice on Pokemon isn't a great idea. Plus on rare occasions, Pokemon personality changes after evolving. Like Fletchinder. Back when he was a Fletchling, he was so carefree, then after he evolved be became all serious."
"Their names change too?" Morgana said before Rotom said as he flew out of Aqua hands. "Correct Morgana. Ryuji's Shinx is now a Luxio and here is Luxio data. Luxio, The Spark Pokemon. Strong electricity courses through the tips of its sharp claws. A light scratch causes fainting in foes."
"That sounds cool, Luxio." Ryuji said as he gave Luxio a high five. Luxio returned the high five, but his claws were out, so Ryuji was shocked and he fainted. The others laughed, Morgana said to Ren. "Ren, where is the Treasure!?"
"Right here... Huh?" Ren said as he pulled out the treasure, but it wasn't a crown any more, it was an Olympic gold medal. Ann then said as Ryuji woke up and got up. "...A medal? Wait, where's that crown go?"
"What's going on?" Ryuji said as they all turned to Morgana. Morgana got the hint and said. "It means, that was the source of Kamoshida's desires. To him, this medal is worth as much as that crown we saw in the Palace."
"An Olympic medal… So, that perv kept clinging to his past glory and couldn't let it go…" Ryuji said before Ann said. "But… this means that Kamoshida's heart might have changed, right?"
"...Probably." Morgana said before Ryuji yelled at him. "Our expulsion's on the line here!"
"This is the first successful example for me too. However, there's no doubt that this has affected Kamoshida's personality quite a lot. The entire Palace disappeared, after all." Morgana said before Ryuji said. "Ugh, I feel all antsy! Ain't there a way to check now?"
"I'm sure we'll know soon enough." Ren said and Ann said. "Right."
"Come on, why the gloomy faces? Be happy! We completed this with great success, you know." Morgana said before Ryuji said. "We just don't know if everything's okay yet…"
"I'm pretty sure it'll be fine. Remember how Kamoshida's Shadow said that he's returning to his self in reality? We all know Suguru Kamoshida is scum. Still… He did seem to regain his conscience somewhat before he disappeared." Morgana said before Ren said. "I'm sure it worked."
"There are definitely those who have been saved thanks to what you've done." Morgana said before Ryuji said. "Anyways, I guess we gotta wait. It all boils down to what's gonna happen to Kamoshida… or if we're getting expelled for real…"
"Let's be patient and go home." Ren said and they all agreed with him. After returning their Pokemon to their Pokeballs, they all were leaving, but Aqua. They all looked at her and Ren said. "Aqua, what's wrong?"
"My body is to sore to move." Aqua said before Ryuji said. "Why?"
"I don't know? It might be awakening to my Persona, or the Z-Move, or the fact that we just ran for our lives? Heck, it could be all three!" Aqua said and everyone could hear the smart talk in her voice. Ryuji then said as Ann walked over to Aqua. "Is it just me or does she seem more edgy now?"
"No, I see it too." Morgana said as Ann helped Aqua home. As they were all going home. The person in red was watching them and said looking at all of them, Aqua most of all. "Not bad for the first round, but they are going to need more allies and get stronger, or they won't be strong enough to stop the true evil." The person in red then pulled out a white crustal with a snowflake in the center.
And done. I hope you like this chapter, and now I have a few things to say. First of all, if you don't know Harriet Tubman, then here is some knowledge. She was an American abolitionist, a person who tried to destroy slavery, a social activist and she escaped being a slave herself. Later in her life, she helped free slaves, and was an armed scout and spy for the Union Army during the American Civil War. And you may be wondering why I picked her when she doesn't sound like a thief, but to the southern people during her time, she was a master thief that always got away with their property. If that doesn't sound like a Phantom Thief, then I don't know what does. Also I made a new story call, Tales of the Kamen Riders; Kamen Hunter, the first of a four part series. So check it out if you like my stories. Now goodbye and see you next time.
