Bennett " I lured her through a false alarm then I hypnotized her through the pulse Hypno. I made her write a resignation and no objection letter of me replacing her."
Dukhan" It was you who caught her again after realising your fault of releasing her."
Bennett" Yes."
Serra" .... Bennett...."
Dukhan " You are the one who cut her hair, right?"
Bennett" Yes."
GASP!
Laura put her hands on her mouth. Her sisters consoled her.
Dukhan " What else do you know about their plans?"
Bennett" I was only responsible for pulse Hypno."
Dukhan" Compartmentalization, huh."
I looked at the boy, entering with papers. I gestured him. He came and gave me the papers. Another thing, I asked Hardy. I looked at Bennett.
Dukhan " Florinia. Please send the confession to Grand Hall in soft form and hide the hard until further notice."
Florinia" Understood."
She left. I uncuffed Bennett and put the paper on the table in front of him.
Dukhan " Sign this resignation and restoration of Laura's elite four position."
Serra"...son..."
Bennett" Yes, mom."
He signed it. He picked it up and pointed towards Laura.
Dukhan " Here, sign it. You too, miss esper. Consider it, your first step for redemption."
Sapphira took it and brought to Laura, who signed. Later, Anna signed too. I raised the second paper.
Dukhan " With this, I am making Calcenon a sub-jail. Bennett will stay in a house without a single Pokemon even it's a caterpi. Serra, you are allowed to live with him."
Charlotte" What a caterpi can do except string shot."
Shelly" Oh! I know! It could be used as an escape rope."
Dukhan" Correct." I said with a smile.
Serra" Thanks."
Dukhan" Cain, You will also keep an eye on him until further notice."
Cain" Me?! I guess, it's alright."
Serra" You don't trust me..."
Dukhan" you are a mother. Charlotte! You take zero to your gym for interrogation but you are not allowed to use 2nd and 3rd degree burns. Got it."
Charlotte" YEAH! You there! Bring him."
She went out and the boy followed with Zero.
Dukhan " Noel! Take the tragic sisters to a flat and compile all information about the pulses."
Noel" Okay."
Dukhan" Radomus and Luna, you two are on guarding duty."
Luna" I will do my best, lord dark." I bowed and went out with the rest.
Shelly" Huh?"
Dukhan " Sapphira, Laura and Anna. You will protect the Calcenon. Sapphira, you are incharge here."
Sapphira" You can count on me, detective."
Shelly " What about us?"
Before I replied, Florinia arrived.
Florinia" Attention! There is an emergency situation. Ciel from Agate circus called. A citizen had arrived there. According to him, the citizens have awakened but they have being captured by Team Meteor. She has asked for reinforcements."
Hardy" Damn! I gotta leave, mates."
He stormed out.
Titania" I expected that."
Florinia" That's reckless."
Dukhan" Yes but he's not a planner. He is probably going through the circus."
Titania nodded.
Dukhan" Titania and Florinia, you too fly in the city. Me and Shelly will arrive through south gate."
Titania" On it."
Florinia" Please reconsider..."
Dukhan" I know, it's a trap. But sometimes, you don't have a choice."
After thinking something.
Florinia" Understood."
Titania" Maybe, you still have hope."
When they left.
Shelly" You are bringing me along."
Dukhan " Yes, I saw, how strong you were before. And I have something for you."
I gave her the adoption papers. Her eyes widened.
Shelly " Is it..."
Dukhan " Yes, we are legally siblings now."
She hugged me.
Dukhan" Shall we?"
Shelly" Yes." She said with determination. At 5 pm, we flew towards the Agate city. At 6pm, we arrived there. It was chaos.
Dukhan " Shelly, you go right and I will go left. Help as much, you can."
She nodded and we separated. I moved through the bridge and climbed up the stairs battling grunts. Then, I came across Solaris, Taka and Sirius. Later, two had captured Samson and Ciel.
Solaris " Dukhan, we met again."
Sirius " Argh!"
Taka nodded slightly to me.
Dukhan " I have to come, you are making quite a mess. Considering, you are not the leader anymore."
Solaris" You know, you remind me of my youth. But yes, with time, we became weak." He said with grim tone.
Dukhan" Not everyone."
Solaris " Then, let's have a rematch."
He sent out staraptor and I sent out Pachi.
Solaris " Use brave bird."
Dukhan " Use quick thunder."
Pachi vanished before burning bird arrived.
RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
A lightning fell.
BANG!
Pachi ' Sorry, fried chicken.'
Solaris " So, these are your infamous combo moves."
He sent out Scizor and I sent out Fang.
Solaris " Use bullet punch."
Dukhan " Use extreme blitz."
Fang' shrouded in flare and vanished.
BANG!
Scizor was Stuck in a wall.
Fang' Weak.'
Sirius " DAMN!"
Solaris sent out Gyarados and I sent out Serrr.
Solaris " Use outrage."
Dukhan " Jump up with slam and use draining storm."
Serrr jumped up and dodged the fire. Then, he sent a compressed storm which engulfed Gyarados.
Serrr' Hey, not bad.'
He sent out Tyranitar and a sand Storm started.
Solaris " Use fire punch."
Dukhan " Use draining storm again."
Another compressed storm of sharp leaves engulfed incoming Tyranitar.
Serrr ' Seriously? 😒'
He sent out excadrill and I sent out Fang.
Solaris " Use earthquake."
Dukhan " Use extreme blitz."
BANG!
Fang' Not that hard.'
He sent out garchomp.
Solaris " Now, I will fight you with my ALL! MEGA EVOLUTION!!!"
After the light show, a mega garchomp was there.
Fang' COME!'
Solaris " Use stone edge!"
Dukhan " Use extreme blitz."
Fang shrouded in flare and vanished before the rocks arrived.
BANG! BANG!
Garchomp was blasted away but he stood up with bruises.
Solaris " Use Dragon claw!"
Dukhan " Use extreme blitz again."
BANG!
Solaris " As expected, you are true to yourself. It's make you the strongest."
Sirius" And a weak person should not be a leader."
As he said that Taka punched him straight in face. Sirius fell down. Both of us released the circus couple, Solaris kept standing.
Sirius " YOU!"
Taka " I am not a meteor ANYMORE! Dukhan, Lin is ahead."
He ran away later.
Sirius" Like hell!"
He went after him.
Solaris " Go."
I moved forward and came across a waterfall. I called Cara and went down. There was a diving area. We moved in and saw a cave. When we crossed it, we came across Lin near a monolithic structure with ruins. It was emitting some kind of energy.
Lin" You are late."
She touched the structure and went as a beam. We followed and came out on the canal surface. I looked around but no sign. Then, I saw a reflection and saw above. She was riding her hydreigon and structure was levitating besides her.
Lin" We will meet soon."
Then, she went as a beam.
Cara' Coward.'
Dukhan " She is methodical."
I went back and met others.
Hardy " Do you win?"
Shelly " Are you okay, brother?"
Titania" Where is Lin?"
Dukhan" Let's talk during dinner."
We went to Pokemon centre. I healed and fed my team. I had my dinner and I told what happened.
Hardy " I am hearing it first time." Said eating ramen.
Titania" Same." Said eating fried chicken.
Florinia " There could be information about it in the historic archives." She said after using handkerchief on her lips.
Shelly " There could also be legends or stories about it in the library."
Dukhan" Alright, Florinia and Shelly, you two find information about our monolithic structure. While I will have my gym battle." I said after using handkerchief too.
Hardy" I was waiting for it since Aya's, mate."
Titania" I will come too."
At 8:30 pm, I was in Agate arena after solving a musical puzzle.
Hardy " I was waiting for this for a long time. So, show me what you got, mate."
He sent out gigalith and aerodactyl and I sent out Serrr and Cara.
Hardy " Let me show you MY POWER! MEGA EVOLUTION!"
After light show, a mega aerodactyl was there.
Hardy" Gigalith and aerodactyl use rock slide!"
Dukhan ' Huh?'
Dukhan" Serrr use draining storm and Cara dodge with liquidation and attack aerodactyl."
A compressed storm of sharp leaves sliced the rocks and Cara flew like a rocket, after dodging the rocks, it slammed already hurt aerodactyl.
BANG!
Serrr ' Is he an idot?'
Cara' Seems like it.'
Hardy " Combo moves, huh."
He sent out lycanroc.
Hardy" Gigalith use rock slide and lycanroc use rock smash on sharkpedo!"
Dukhan" Serrr use draining storm again and Cara use liquidating crunch on lycanroc."
Serrr again sliced the rocks along gigalith.
Serrr ' Seriously 😒?'
Cara blasted off as a big water shark with shiny teeth towards lycanroc.
Cara ' COME!'
BANG!
Lycanroc was stuck in the wall.
Hardy " A SINGLE HIT!!!"
He sent out archeops and rampardos.
Hardy" Archeops use acrobatics on serperior and rampardos use rock slide!"
Dukhan" Serrr protect yourself with draining storm and Cara use liquidating frost on archeops."
A compressed storm of sharp leaves surrounded Serrr, incoming archeops was slashed by it.
Serrr ' Everyone is not an idiot.'
Cara blasted off as a big water shark with frosty teeth towards archeops swiftly dodging the rocks.
Cara ' Gotcha!'
BANG!
Hardy " Damn!"
He sent out another lycanroc.
Hardy " Rampardos use rock slide and lycanroc use accelerock on sharkpedo."
Dukhan" Serrr use draining storm again and Cara use liquidating crunch on lycanroc."
Rampardos was engulfed in a slashing storm.
THUD!
Serrr ' He really loves this move.'
Cara clashed with the incoming lycanroc.
BANG!
Cara' Child's Play!'
Hardy " What are you made of mate?!"
Titania ' Same as me.'
Hardy" Here, geode badge and TM rock slide."
Pachi ' I don't think, someone is going to use THIS!'
Hardy " Well, now it's time to save Aya. I am going to burst that force field!"
He stormed out. I looked at Titania.
Dukhan" He does not seem like your brother."
Titania" Don't remind me."
We moved out and called out our flying types. Then, we flew to Calcenon. At 10 pm, we arrived there. When we went in the poke centre, I saw everyone there including Victoria, Cal, Amaria and Julia. Victoria was standing with Shelly talking with Amaria and Cal had a bruise on his cheek. Even, Evelyn had a palm print on her cheek.
I expected that. When we came closer, Victoria came and hugged me.
Dukhan " Don't tell me, you are bunking on your office day." I said breaking the hug.
Victoria" Nope. I came to join the final battle against Team Meteor. According to our Intel, every member of Team Meteor is in Labradora city. So, I don't want to miss this."
Dukhan" I see."
Shelly" Brother! Why didn't you tell me about your confession to sister Victoria and ring? It's not fair!"
Dukhan" You know what was going on."
Shelly" And what sister Amaria? Huh!"
Amaria" Hehehe! Looks like she is angry~"
Victoria " She is right."
Dukhan" I am sorry."
Shelly " Hmpf! Considering the situation, I will forgive you this time."
Dukhan" Thanks 🙏 But what is going on here? And I am not asking about some people getting hit."
Charlotte" W...well..."
Sapphira" Let me." She said putting her hand on her.
Sapphira" After you had gone both the sisters and that boy were cooperating but zero was stubborn. So, Charlotte came to me for some advice."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Sapphira P.O.V.
Charlotte " Big sis! That zero is a tough nut to crack. I need some advice because Dukhan has forbidden me to use fire."
Sapphira" Alright, let's talk about it having dinner."
We went to have our dinner. When, we were going back to our posts. We saw some injured trainers near the gym and Zero behind the forcefield climbing the stairs. We went to bug boy and asked him.
Bennett " ARGH!"
Serra" BENNETT! WHAT HAPPENED?!!"
Bennett" Damn! They know that I am captured."
Cain " Meaning."
Bennett" They put a mental link in our head. With this, we can move through the forcefield. I didn't said that because zero was captured. But now..."
Sapphira" Now, they know. So, they removed the mental link."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Normal P.O.V.
Dukhan " I see."
I looked at everyone.
Dukhan " Nurse Joy give Bennett his Pokemons."
Joy" But..."
Dukhan" Don't worry. He is useless to them. Everyone meet me after healing your teams."
When, everyone was healing their team. I stood aside. I healed my team in the last. When, Titania was going out. I stopped her.
Dukhan " I need your help with my plan."
Titania" What you want me to do?"
At 11pm, we came out and moved to the forcefield.
Dukhan" Alright, everyone. This will be our battle for freedom of Labradora city."
Sapphira" What's the plan?"
Dukhan" Not this time. I want you all to go all out on offence as forcefield is removed."
Charlotte" How are we going to do that?"
Titania" He is one who will do IT!" She said coming near me wielding her Aegislash.
Then, she stabbed me with a quick thrust. As the blood came out, they turned into smoke like my body. I transformed and flew up.
Dukhan ' I don't want to destroy Labradora myself.'
Charlotte " WHAT THE HELL!!!"
Cain " Yeah! Most people didn't know."
Titania" Well, now they do."
Victoria" Are you..."
Dukhan" Yes. This forcefield is good enough to handle my one punch. But it is different if I use five at.... once."
[ BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!] =BOOOOMMMM!
SHATTERED!
Dukhan " Now, everyone...."
ZWING!
A forcefield covered me.
BOOOM!
I broke out.
SWISH!
I intercepted clawblauncher's dragon pulse.
BANG!
Shelly " Brother!"
Dukhan " Quickly move in! I knew, Lin will use her pulse Pokemons against me. I can only be in this form for 5 minutes through the method you saw. Pulse Pokemons will last till that time. So, go in but be careful. Unlike me, her body is strong enough to slap away Sapphira's Dragonite. She is durable to withstand the elements too. But don't over do it or she will use her true form. Try to capture her by sedation." I said everything flickering around poping the consecutive forcefields and dragon pulses.
Everyone " Got it."
They went in.
