Location Unknown: 2:00 pm
the caged Pokemon stared at the silver colored lion who was also caged.
"(Solgaleo...is that a Solgaleo?)" The caged Pokemon wondered.
The Solgaleo opened its eyes, and stared back at the other caged Pokemon. "Keldeo...that's what you are, right?" Solgaleo asked
"(You have telepathy, so you can use human language.)" Keldeo realized.
"Yes, I know these humans are evil, but there are good humans out there as well, have faith we'll be rescued soon." Solgaleo responded.
"(How come you can't break the cage?)" Keldeo asked.
"The metal resists Pokemon based assaults from the inside, it's easy to tell."
"(I see.)" Keldeo mumbled
Keldeo went to sleep as Solgaleo looked to see multiple Pokemon surrounded, all of them caged up as well.
"Evil humans indeed, Lunala... stay safe." Solgaleo thought.
Location unknown: 2:01 pm
The room is colored like the sky, multiple shades of blue, in the center of this room four people gathered around a table shaped like a mountain, all of them having some fruit.
"So, the grunts we sent were beaten by a rouge Aura Guardian, interesting." The one at the head of the table said as he read the report.
"Scientist Athena has both Keldeo and Solgaleo in her lab... so far, the will suppressing project is slowly progressing, I doubt it'll be finished soon." The one at the end that looked like the ocean.
"Now now, we don't have psychic abilities, it may have helped, but we can't risk psychopaths with psychic abilities... I mean a few are fine, they can be controlled, but too many of them, and an entire region might fall because of it." The one at the side that resembles what Hell might look like stated.
"Poseidon, Hades.. mind yourselves, Hermes... have anything to report?" The first one asked.
"Yes, lord Zeus... N was at the scene, but he didn't fight back." Hermes informed.
"N...the king of the current Team Plasma?" Zeus asked.
"Yes, report says he's a Pokemon Ranger now, and he didn't use his styler either." Hermes stated.
"Capture Stylers can't affect Pokemon captured by the various Pokeballs." Zeus stated.
"Yes, but our grunts were defeated by that rouge Aura Guardian... report says he has short red hair, you know the only one who fits this description." Hermes informed.
"...Aries, so he came out of hiding.. did he, interesting. He should know better than to defy us. We can destroy him at our leisure. Anyway, the members who attacked Cubis City went out of line, their orders were only to capture Skrelp and Horsea... can't have disobedience now, can we?" Zeus chuckled
"No, but we should be wary. Chronos has mixed emotions over Aries, but we can deploy him when the time is right." Hades stated.
"That reminds me," Poseidon spoke up, "where is Chronos now?"
"He's guarding Keldeo and Solgaleo in Athena's lab. I've told her to keep an eye on Chronos." Hades answered
Route 14: 2:10 pm
Anyway, our attention turns back to Blake, N, and Brian who just entered the forest like path that leads to Malachite City
"Brian.. you're a good battler, where'd you train?" Blake asked.
"Oh... um, that's not important." Brian said, diverting his attention elsewhere.
"But, you're so strong...I just want to know." Blake stated.
"No!" Brian snapped "I... I don't want to talk about it, remember this... the slate can never come clean, no matter how much you wish you could do it yourself."
Blake just stared in confusion while N whistled "I find that to be true, myself and the Team Plasma members that sided with me are all trying to atone for the sins we've caused, but no matter how much good we do, or have done. The evil we've committed stains us." N then turned to Blake
"What is it?" Blake asked.
"You still have a blank canvas, what experiences will you paint it with?" N asked.
Blake blinked in surprise "I...I don't know. I do want to have an awesome battle with my sister, the current champion, but this 'Team Olympus' seem like they're evil, so they have to be stopped before whatever they wish to do happens."
Brian sighed, then began to lose himself in a train of thought "He can't know...not yet... I don't want my past to catch up, but it will this sort of thing always does... Kyle... I will save you from them, I promise."
Malachite City: 2:30 pm
The group of 3 jogged their way to the entrance to Malachite City, and they're all panting slightly... the town's color was that of the crystal, Malachite. Turquoise buildings, the road was bright pink to counter the color imbalance of the buildings.
"Wow... this city's incredibly bright." Blake said.
"Hmm, the Frontier facility should be around here, I know there's a gym here." Brian said.
"Cubis City also has a Gym, but I don't think I'm ready for that one... not just yet." Blake admitted
"Messolis City has a Gym as well, but we'd have to back track through the Dragonic Village and Cubis City to get to it. Is that alright with you?" Brian asked.
Malachite City Beach: 2:45 pm
Blake nodded to Brian's question, then the 3 of them went to the beach. There, they saw a Pokemon Center...wait a Pokemon Center on the beach? That can't be right, can it?
"Wait... Malachite City has one Pokemon Center, and it's right next to the Gym, why is there a center here?" Blake asked as he looked at his Map Device.
"Simple, this is a Frontier Facility, the one and only Battle Hospital." Brian said.
As the words left Brian's mouth, the door opened, a Nurse Joy walked out of the front doors, and onto the beach.
"Welcome to the Battle Hospital, I'm Nurse Joy, the Frontier Brain of this facility. Would you like to battle?" Nurse Joy asked.
Blake blinked his eyes, then realization filled his face "Oh... they have a Nurse Joy as a Frontier Brain?" He asked.
"Yes... I'm the challenger." Brian stated.
"Come this way please, also... regardless of the results, I'll give your participating Pokemon a check up." Nurse Joy informed as they followed.
Battle Hospital: 2:50 pm
N looked at the Frontier Nurse, and nodded in understanding. Once the group of them entered the facility, they saw that it was no different than a normal center, but she was leading them to a back door, once the door opened, they saw an incredible looking battlefield. Nurse Joy took her side of the field, and a doctroid (doctor android) took the referee spot. The doctorid has a metallic body, silver in color, and it wears a hat similar to that of Nurse Joy. N and Blake took to the stands to watch this battle
"The Battle Frontier challenge, Battle Hospital, will now commence... format is double battle, no substitutions are allowed for either side. Please choose the 2 Pokemon you wish to use." The doctroid called out.
"Alright, Blissey, Audino, let's do this!" Nurse joy called as she threw out 2 Pokeballs.
The two Pokemon that appeared were both pink in color. One was more oval shaped with frills on its stubby arms, and an egg pouch over its stomach, the second one appeared as a petite fairy like creature that has blank blue eyes.
"Blissey and Audino are Pokemon that give tons of experience when defeated." N informed.
Blake checked his Pokedex app for information on them, "I see, they're both good at healing...makes sense."
"Corina, Jake... get out there!" Brian exclaimed.
Brian's Squirtle and a Seel appeared out their pokeballs, both ready for battle
"This should be interesting... Blissey is excellent at special defense, and having a lot of health, Audino has a special move that can heal partners." N explained.
"Corina.. use Aurora Beam, Jake... Aura Sphere!" Brian exclaimed.
"(Hadoken)!" Jake exclaimed as he launched a blue sphere of energy
"(Rainbow light beam!)" Corina exclaimed as she fired a rainbow attack
"Not gonna work, Audino... Disarming Voice!" Nurse Joy exclaimed
"(I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves!)" Audino sang.
From Audino' mouth, two separate sound-waves of music launched themselves against the two attacks Brian declared, and collided with them. The result was a colorful explosion.
"The attacks were evenly matched!" Blake exclaimed.
Brian's eyes opened wide in shock "she's too strong!" he thought
"I was hoping you'd be stronger, guess I have no choice, I'll have to end this early, Blissey use Double Slap!" Nurse Joy ordered.
"Jake, intercept with Aura Sphere!" Brian ordered
Blissey charged right for Corina, ready to slap her face, but Squirtle got in the way, and fired a blue sphere of energy in Blissey's face, but the explosion cleared, and Blissey was unharmed.
"Aura Sphere.. is super effective against Normal types... but... how is?" Brian asked.
"Simple, Blissey has been EV trained in health and is specially defensive, your Aura Sphere is a special offensive move, your Squirtle doesn't get STAB off of it, and the experience difference between them is just too great." Nurse Joy informed
Brian knew it... as an Aura Guardian, he could feel the power of Nurse Joy's Pokemon, but why did he make a foolish error like this?
"But, for the determination you've shown me so far, I'll give you special reward." Nurse Joy informed as she revealed her key stone.
"No way... Mega Evolution!" Blake and Brian exclaimed.
"Mega Evolution?" N asked, confusion filling his voice.
"Now, unleash the power to heal the world, Audino, Mega Evolve!" Nurse Joy exclaimed.
Power emanated from the key stone, and Audino's body, then Audiono's body started glowing yellow, it transformed. It's body didn't change, but now it's pure white with frills coming off its body.
"(It feels so amazing to be in this form)." Audino stated
"(We're done for!)" Jake and Corina exclaimed.
"There's more." Nurse Joy informed.
"More?!" Blake exclaimed.
"Now... Blissey, we'll heal the world of its pain... heal them... heal them... we'll heal them all!" Nurse Joy chanted.
Blissey's body radiated pink colored energy, glitter like energy enveloped it's body, now it has a uniform that's similar to Nurse Joy's, and wears something like the cap on Nurse Joy's head.
"They... synced up!" Brian realized.
"Sync up?" N asked.
"Synchro Evolution combined with Mega Evolution. In Audino's Mega Evolution, it gets the additional Fairy type, but I'm not sure what a Synchro Blissey can do." Blake answered.
"I...see." N thought.
"Audino, use Disarming Voice once again!" Nurse Joy exclaimed.
"(If there's something strange in the neighborhood, guess who it is! Ghost Nappa!)" Audino sang as it's song turned into a pink colored sound wave.
The said sound-waves hit both Jake and Corina directly, the both of them feeling an intense pain from the attack..
"Blissey, Double Slap!" Nurse Joy added.
Blissey moved at super sonic speed, and appeared behind both the Seel and Squirtle, then slapped them both silly repeatedly. Both fell to the ground, still moving, but barely.
"N...no...I can sense it, their auras are weak... I should give up... I'm not strong enough to beat her; that means... I can't save... Kyle." Brian thought.
Jake and Corina stood their ground, ready to fight the Mega Audino and Synchro Blissey.
"(I won't give up!)" Jake exclaimed.
"(Neither will I!)" Corina added.
Nurse Joy nodded, "I applaud your determination to keep going, but you're no match for me."
Brian started tearing up, not noticing what his Pokemon were doing "Kyle...will my sins never be forgiven, why didn't you come with me?"
"Don't give up!" Blake exclaimed
Brian looked up, and saw Blake standing at his seat. Brian sensed the intense emotion radiating off of Blake, almost suffocating to a degree.
"Sure, your Pokemon aren't as experienced, but that shouldn't matter! If there's something you're fighting for, then win this battle!" Blake exclaimed.
"Easy for him to say, the power of her Audino and Blissey are just too much." Brian thought.
"Audino, end this with Psychic." Nurse Joy commanded.
"(Right.")
Audino's eyes started glowing, then blue energy wrapped itself around both Jake and Corina, and forced them back into the ground. Their eyes swirled to indicate they fainted. The doctroid hurried to the two Pokemon to confirm they fainted
"Squirtle and Seel are unable to battle, the winner is Nurse Joy." The doctroid called.
"Jake... Corina... I'm sorry." Brian stated
"Regardless of results, I did promise to heal the participants." Nurse Joy informed as her Audino and Blissey returned to their normal forms.
Malachite City: Battle Hospital: 4:00 pm
Brian returned his Pokemon to their Pokeballs, then the four of them returned to the main part of the building, and then sat at a booth, and ordered dinner from the menu.
"Frontier Brains are amazing, almost as strong as the elite 4." Blake said after taking a bite of pasta.
"..." Brian ordered a burger, and is slowly eating it.
N looked Brian curiously, "are you alright?" He asked.
"...Yeah, peachy... I'm fine." Brian answered.
"You don't seem fine, I could tell your Pokemon wanted to continue to fight... but did you?" N asked.
"...no...I was lost in thought, I guess... it occasionally happens when I battle." Brian answered.
"What do you think about?" Blake asked.
"You wouldn't understand, I have no reason to answer." Brian stated as he finished his burger slowly.
"Brian, your Pokemon are healed!" Nurse Joy called.
Brian got up, left the table, then grabbed his Pokemon. After he returned to the table he called them out, Blake doing the same. Brian knelled down to his Pokemon's level, and hugged them
"Jake... Corina... I'm sorry for what happened, my inexperience hurt the both of you, are you alright?" Brian asked them
"(Of course we are.)" Jake stated
"(What kind of question is that, there's someone you want to save, so we're going to help you achieve that.)" Corina added.
Tears streamed like a river from Brian's eyes as he finished hugging the. As they finished their dinner, Brian and Blake returned their Pokemon to their Pokeballs
"It's getting late." Blake said as he looked out the window.
"Pokemon centers have rooms trainers can use. I suggest we do so." N said as he petted his Zorua.
They got up, and went to the counter, Nurse Joy looked at them "enjoy your dinner?" she asked.
"Yeah...it's getting late, so... is it alright if we spend the night?" Blake asked.
"Of course you can." Nurse Joy smiled as she gave N a room key.
Battle Hospital: 5:15 pm
Brian and Blake both entered the bathroom, then called their Pokemon out of their pokeballs, and bathed them in the tub. The Water and Dragon types loved the bath, but Hammond, the Tepig, glared at the water
"Tepigs are Fire types, so they don't particularly like water." Brian explained
"I already knew that." Blake mumbled as he scrubbed Hector, the Gible's face.
"(This is a nice bath!)" Drencher, the Skrelp exclaimed.
"(Yeah... a Pokemon can get used to this.)" Corina agreed
Battle Hospital: 8:00 pm
After finishing bathing their Pokemon, Blake and Brian entered the bedroom, and looked out the window.
"It's a bit early, but I think we should hit the hey. Blake... you do have a gym battle in the morning." N advised.
"Yeah, good night." Blake said as he took the middle bed.
N and Brian took the other 2 beds, and the Pokemon joined their respective trainers, all of them sleeping, except for Brian, who is still in thought.
"Kyle... I... I'm sorry, we can't start over...even if we wanted to." Brian thought.
Athena's Lab: unknown section. 8:01 pm
Two wolves sat in between a white haired version of Brian... they were both Lycanrocs...one in the midday form, the other in the midnight form.
"Aries... or should I call you Brian, as that is your real name... I can't wait to meet you in battle, then and there I'll teach you not to betray us." Commander Chronos of team Olympus said to himself.
