Now partners were against each other.
Charlotte " But you said...."
Terra " My games my RULES! So, MOVE YOUR ASSESS!"
Sapphira looked at Charlotte and went away. After her, everyone left.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the first room, Florinia and Titania were standing across each other.
Titania" Listen, a lot of things have changed. Dukhan has saved both me and Amaria, who living a false life. Now, we are not shackled anymore. We are free now. What happened in the past can't be changed. But that doesn't mean you have to leave like this for all your life."
Florinia" This subject thinks that there is no other way and we should initiate our battle."
Terra" Agreed!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In second room
Hardy " Old man! I know you are worried about your son and you want to save him. Still I won't go easy on you because I have to save Aya myself."
Radomus" Actually, you are right. Even I myself will do something like that."
Terra" Alright! DON'T WET YOURSELF!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In third room
Sapphira" Charlotte, I am going to forfeit. You move forward." She said looking away.
Charlotte" WHAT?! NO!!! I WILL NEVER DO THAT!!! DO YOU THINK I CAN WIN AGAINST THAT ROCKHEAD OR OUR BROKEN TRAINER!!! INSTEAD I WILL FORFEIT IF YOU DON'T FIGHT!!!"
Sapphira" ... Charlotte...."
Terra" CUT THE DRAMA WILL YA!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In forth room.
Cal" Looks like I was only this useful. So, we better start this."
Dukhan" Sure."
Terra" Begins!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
At 1: 30, I reached the third floor. There was Florinia? Hardy and Sapphira.
Terra " Alright! Here COMES THE SEMI FINALISTS!"
I was against Florinia. We went to our rooms.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In first room
Hardy " Looks like I am going to fight Dukhan again. But I don't think so, I can win from him."
Sapphira" You think you can defeat me. I think you are delusional."
Hardy" Hey lady! You might be one rank higher than me but I have the type advantage."
Sapphira" You really think that. Then, let me teach you."
Terra" NOW! WE ARE TALKING!!!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In second room
Florinia " No matter what strategies this subject thinks. In conclusion: Dukhan victors. So, it's better to...."
Terra" PLEASE LADY!!! SHOW SOME E.M.O.T.I.O.N. ARGHH! IT'S LIKE! I AM LISTENING TO AN A.I.! JUST START YOUR MATCH ALREADY!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
At 2 am, I entered the forth floor. Sapphira was looking at me.
Sapphira" As expected! You won. Terra! I know you are doing this for Lin's amusement. Then, bring my gym here. It will be more amusing. In this way, either I will save Charlotte or he will get his final badge."
I looked at her.
Terra" Okay! Council has decided! You are allowed!"
Soon, a new way formed.
Sapphira" Come."
She left and I followed. Soon, we arrived near some mountains floating on lava? There were golden coloured coins also. Sapphira was standing near trainer link.
Sapphira" I will be waiting for you."
She went away jumping on the rocks above lava. I turned the link on.
Mrs Bethany " DUKHAN! You are in Sapphira's gym! What is going on there?! Adrian had left after he received your message! How is Victoria!"
I told her about Terra and the tournament.
Mrs Bethany " I see.... Then, I let me guide you about the gym...."
After the advice, I moved north and saw a chest on a cliff. I went near it but it was closed.
Sapphira" Choose what you want to protect from the options." Her voice came.
Dukhan" I see..."
After checking all of them, I choose family.
Sapphira" Tell me, detective. Did you choose that because of me."
Dukhan" No."
I shook my head.
Sapphira" Then, why?"
Dukhan " Because after my amnesia, I always wanted a family. And now, I have one. For whom, I will do anything."
Sapphira" I see."
After that I was in a battle of attrition against Pokemons, trainers and the gargantuan from the Tanzan mountain. At 2:30, I was standing across Sapphira.
Sapphira" You know, ever since a child, I have lost my dreams after my parents' death. It was this world, which made me realise how cruel people could be. So, I tried to protect my family from it. Even, I have to destroy myself. Now, my sisters are growing up. There becoming stronger and independent. Now, I am thinking myself useless."
Dukhan" You are not and they still need your help."
Sapphira" I know, that's why I am going to defeat you, detective."
She sent out noivern and I sent out Airia.
Sapphira" Use boomburst!"
Dukhan " Protect yourself with extrasensory then use moon voice."
Airia protected herself from shockwave in a sphere.
Airia ' I am not some weak bird.'
She blasted him away.
BANG!
He got stick in the wall.
Sapphira" So, these are your combo moves!" She said smiling.
Dukhan" Thanks. As I said before you have a great smile."
Sapphira" Huh!"
She touched her lips and sent out salamence.
Sapphira" Use Dragon claw!"
Dukhan " Use moon voice again!"
Airia sent a humming blast towards the incoming dragon.
BANG!
He was sent flying.
Sapphira" Another single hit!"
She was smiling again and sent out garchomp.
Sapphira" Use iron head!"
Dukhan " Fly aside and use moon voice again!"
Airia dodged smoothly flying aside and blasted him away.
BANG!
Sapphira" Haha."
She sent out haxorus.
Sapphira" USE POISON JAB!!!"
Dukhan " USE MOON VOICE AGAIN!"
BANG!
Incoming haxorus with poisonous fist was blasted away.
Sapphira " HAHAHA!"
She called out Charizard.
Sapphira" LET'S SHOW OUR REAL POWER! MEGA EVOLUTION!"
After the light show, there was a draconic Charizard.
Sapphira" USE FLARE BLITZ!"
Dukhan " USE MOON VOICE AGAIN!"
The humming blast clashed with blazing dragon.
BOOOOMMMM!
After the smoke subsided, Charizard was unconscious and normal.
Airia ' I... can... keep up...'
Dukhan ' It's okay.'
I returned her.
Sapphira" HEHEHEHE!"
She sent out Dragonite and I sent out Fang.
Sapphira" USE EXTREME SPEED!!!"
Dukhan " USE EXTREME BLITZ!"
Fang shrouded in flare and vanished. Dragonite vanished too.
BOOOOMMMM!
Fang reappeared and Dragonite was barely standing.
Fang' A dragon type, no doubt.'
Sapphira" USE EXTREME SPEED AGAIN!!!"
Dukhan " USE EXTREME BLITZ AGAIN!!!"
BOOOOMMMM!
Dragonite was stuck in the wall. But Fang was standing.
Sapphira" That was my most exciting battle."
Dukhan " Your laughter already said that."
She touched her face.
Dukhan" Listen! If you think, your sisters have become stronger and independent. Then, find something you like, somewhere you want to be. Someone, you can trust. Find him."
Sapphira" Can there really?"
Dukhan" There is always someone for a person, you just have to find him. If you find him, don't let him go. Marry him, have kids and have family. Family, you will want to protect."
She was looking at me wide eyes. She closed her eyes.
Sapphira" Well, that's a lot of stuff. I have opened the chest. Treasure badge and TM dragon claw is there. Now, Terra. I want to think."
She became a blur image. I collected the badge and TM. Healed my team with star and moved towards fifth floor. During which I saw Florinia on the wall? She flickered and appeared before me.
Florinia " Greetings."
She vanished.
Terra " WHAT?!! HOW DID YOU GET OUT!!!"
I went east and saw Florinia near wall, waving her arms.
Dukhan " How did you get out?"
Florinia " This entire place is laced with technology. This made the subject realised, how she was interfering with the building from the cyberspace. So, the subject tried to be a part of the cyberspace and get out."
Terra " Sooo! That's how you did it. Well, you forgot a good thing. I CONTROL THE CYBERSPACE AND I CAN DELETE ANYTHING! I WANT! EVEN YOU!"
Florinia vanished.
Terra" SEE!"
Florinia came back again.
Terra " HUH?!!"
Dukhan " How?!"
Florinia " The subject created an app after becoming a part of the cyberspace. The said app is responsible for undoing the delete of the subject."
Dukhan" Not bad."
Terra" Well played. BUT IT'S ONLY A MATER OF TIME BEFORE I FIND THAT APP! THEN DELETE YOU!"
Soon, a PC appeared on the wall.
Florinia" Through this, I can save the o...."
She vanished again.
Terra" TAKE THAT BITCH!"
But Florinia appeared again!
Florinia" Do you think, the subject made only one app? The subject made hundreds of them."
Dukhan" Hahaha!"
Terra" WHAT THE FUCK?!!"
After few minutes, Terra become visible.
Terra " HUH?!! I AM A GIRL AGAIN!!!"
Florinia " The subject made you come out to decrease your influence in the cyberspace. Dukhan, please distract her."
Terra" Shut up."
Dukhan" ..."
Florinia"...."
I talked with Florinia in sign language.
Dukhan ( Can you speak in sign language ?)
Florinia ( Yes.)
Seeing this, Terra sent out excadrill and I sent out Fang.
Terra used earthquake. When, tremors started...
Fang' WHAT?!'
Dukhan ' Use extreme blitz!'
Before being severely hurt, fang shrouded in flare and vanished.
BANG!
She sent out donphan and I sent out Serrr. She used ice shard. Serrr dodged it.
Serrr ' WHAT'S GOING ON?!!'
Dukhan ' Use draining storm!'
A compressed storm of sharp leaves engulfed it. She sent out blessy. Terra ordered blizzard.
Dukhan ' Protect yourself with leaf storm!'
Serrr ' DAMN HER!'
Serrr was barely able to create a pillar around him. She ordered thunderbolt.
Serrr ' Use draining storm again!'
The pillar bursted up and debris stopped the lightning. A storm of sharp leaves followed and slashed her. She sent out quagsire and ordered scald. Serrr dodged it quickly.
Dukhan ' Use draining storm again!'
Serrr sent a compressed storm of sharp leaves which engulfed it. She sent out porygon-Z and I sent out Fang. She ordered psychic. He started levitating.
Fang' STILL?!'
Dukhan " Use Flame wave!'
A wave of scorching flames engulfed him. Fang fell down. She ordered thunderbolt. Fang quickly dodged it.
Dukhan ' Use extreme blitz!'
BANG!
She sent out garchomp and I sent out Cara. She ordered Draco meteor. Cara barely dodged one coming towards her.
Cara' THE FUCK!'
Dukhan ' Use liquidating frost!'
Cara moved besides them as a big water shark with icy fangs.
Cara' YOU BASTARD!'
BANG!
Garchomp frozen up.
Terra " Looks like that's my end of the line."
She looked at Florinia.
Terra" Like how you lose or stopped your emotions, she did it too. She has quite a nice smile."
Dukhan" Lin?"
Terra" But that's in the past, she has been changed. Now, the only thing, I should do is delete myself."
She vanished. I looked at Florinia. After few minutes.
Florinia" This subject is unable to undo her delete. It seems that subject does not want to exist anymore. This subject will open up a pathway to victory road. That is where Lin is."
After few minutes, a pathway opened in the north side.
Florinia " Now, this subject will bring others back from cyberspace. On other hand, Dukhan should be on his way..... and good luck."
I nodded and left.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After Terra's battle
Solaris " This is as far, you can go."
Lin" And what you think, you are doing?"
Solaris " I am ending you. My son made the right decision. Now, it's my turn."
Lin" Fool."
SWISH!
BANG!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
At 4 am, I came into victory road. It was a staircase leading to up a snowy mountain. As I was moving up, I saw blood stains around. I moved forward and saw Solaris body left side burying in the snow.
Dukhan " Lin."
I climbed up and came across a pokecentre. I healed my team and bought some stuff. I had my breakfast and fed my team. At 5 am, I went out. I climbed up again and came across a cave entrance decorated with crystals of Reborn sigils in same colour.
