Then, she went and made preparations for our battle show. I was standing in stadium against Samson.
Samson " Alright, let's do it."
He sent out hariyama and I sent out Airia.
Samson " Use smackdown."
Dukhan " Dodge and use air slash."
Airia dodged the incoming bullet and slashed him.
Airia ' Your aim is bad.'
Samson " Use heavy slam!"
Dukhan " Dodge and use air slash again."
Airia dodged and slashed him.
Airia' Well, I told you.'
He sent out mienshao.
Samson" Use acrobatics!"
Dukhan " Use extrasensory."
Incoming mienshao was smackdown.
Airia' You are slow.'
Samson " Use poison jab!"
Dukhan " Use extrasensory again."
Mienshao was smackdown again.
Airia '.....'
He sent out Lucario and I sent out Fang.
Samson " Use extreme speed!"
Dukhan " Use extreme blitz."
Fang shrouded in flare and vanished same time as Lucario. Then with a bang, Lucario was smackdown.
Fang' You should use your strength too.'
Samson " COMBO MOVE?!!"
Aya" That's new!"
Cain " Nah, I saw that before."
Hardy" I am going to have a tough battle."
Audience " HOOOOOOO!"
He sent out hawlucha and I sent out Pachi.
Dukhan " Go girl."
Pachi' Finally!'
Samson " Use acrobatics!"
Dukhan " Use thunder."
Pachi' Hehehe!'
The acrobat was zapped by a bolt.
Aya" A first strike!"
Samson sent out Blaziken and I sent out Cara.
Samson " Use protect!"
Dukhan " Use liquidating crunch."
A giant water shark with shiny teeth shot towards a field covered Blaziken.
Aya" He certainly improves his tactics."
Crash!
Cara' You think, you can hide.'
Hardy" But can he break protect?"
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Cain" Hahaha!"
Shattered!
Cara' Gotcha!'
Blaziken was smackdown.
Audience " HOOOOOOO!"
Samson " PROTECT WAS BREACHED!!!"
He sent out conkeldurr and I sent out Airia.
Samson " Use bulk up!"
Dukhan " Use air slash."
He was slashed.
Airia ' One should seize opportunity.'
Samson " Use Acrobatics!"
Dukhan " Use extrasensory."
Incoming acrobat was smackdown.
Airia ' Too slow.'
Alistasia " Winner is Dukhan!"
Then, I was given strike badge and TM brick break.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later, I was with everyone.
Terra" Guys~ I got something ~"
Ciel" What?"
Terra" There is a signal from Ametrine city, it's responsible for sleeping in Agate city."
Hardy" Really?!"
Dukhan" Cain, isn't this city where Heather is?"
Cain" Yeah. So,...shit!"
Dukhan" Yeah."
Aya" So, what's the plan?"
Hardy " I think we should go to Calcenon. There are gym leaders there."
Cain" What about Ametrine city?"
Dukhan" I will handle that."
At 9 pm, we left.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At 12 am, I reached Fiore mansion. I saw Titania writing something.
Dukhan " Where is Amaria?"
Titania " She is out for a walk. Are you here for TM?"
I nodded.
Titania" Wait here, I will bring it."
While I was waiting, Amaria came.
Amaria" Dukhan! You won."
Dukhan " Yes."
Amaria " I checked about Agate and found out someone named Titwin is responsible. That person is in Ametrine city."
Dukhan" I know I am heading there."
Amaria" You can't, the way is sealed."
Dukhan " I guess, I should go to Calcenon then."
Amaria" Umm... there is something I am troubled about."
Dukhan" What?"
Amaria" I think, Tania is Titwin."
Dukhan" Huh?"
Amaria" Because she is stopping me against them. Hmm, what's this?"
Dukhan" Something, she was writing."
Amaria" It's her diary!"
Dukhan ' I have a bad feeling.'
Dukhan" I don't think..."
Amaria " .... been lying to her.... I can't keep up..."
At that time, Titania came.
Titania" Here is your TM."
I took it. She looked at her.
Titania" Are you.... reading my... diary?.."
Amaria " I wish, I had read it before. So, you lied to me all this time. I can't..."
She went out.
Titania" Come on!"
We went after her. She was on a small path above waterfall in the river. Titania went there through a skarmory.
Amaria " Tell me, are you Titwin?"
Titania " Who?"
Dukhan" Meteor agent responsible for Agate city."
Titania" What?! NO!!!"
Amaria" Well that's a relief. But... you still betrayed me."
Titania" I was doing this for you."
Amaria" But you lied.... you didn't love me... not even when...we kissed..."
Titania" I thought...I could help you...if I told you true ... you could hurt yourself... I thought... maybe I would fell in love with you...."
Amaria" But you... didn't.... instead you pity me...now I am freeing you."
And she jumped just like I saw in Shade's premonition.
Titania " I am going after her. Please come later."
And she jumped also. I taught surf to Cara and cross the river but she wasn't able to cross waterfall. So, I went to other side. I moved north west and entered Ametrine mountain through a cave. I went through it's snowy and icy paths towards north east. I also surf through the underground river.
In my path, I came across a giant ice wall. It seemed harder than usual.
Dukhan ' Looks like, I found the blockage.'
I went further and met others.
Dukhan " Guys? What are you doing here?"
Aya" Dukhan!"
Cain" Well, this is a common way to both Ametrine city and Calcenon."
Aya" Seems like Ametrine path is blocked now."
Hardy" Then, we should open it or they will starve to death due to loss of supplies."
Dukhan" Seems like Meteor is using a ice type pulse for the exact reason here."
Hardy" Well, I am going to break it for them."
He sent out a gigalith.
Smash! Smash! Smash!
Hardy " Not even a dent."
Cain " So, what now?"
Dukhan" Let's go to Calcenon now."
Aya" Yeah, there are other gym leaders there."
Then, we went east and came out of cave at 3 am.
