Pokemon The Force - Volume 4: A New Journey In Hoenn Chapter 113 9: Two Unexpected Meeting

Soul: Y’know if you want to fight that much, I’ll let you.

Putting it down, Soul took a Poke Ball and tossed it up in the sky as Bagon appeared. Axew who saw this got ready as it took its stance. Bagon also got ready for battle as Soul gave out a command.

Soul: Use Headbutt, full force.

Bagon rushed towards Axew with full speed as a small crater was created behind it. Axew used Bite to stop it. With its tusks, Axew managed to stop Bagon movement which made Soul impressed.

Not every Pokemon around Bagon level could do that since Soul has trained Bagon defense on his head pretty good.

Still he could see that Axew was in pain due to its expression and because Bagon head was much harder than its tusks.

Soul: Use Dragon Pulse.

With the close distance, Axew couldn’t dodge the attack as it was hit by Dragon Pulse in close range. Its whole body flew up as Soul could see that it had fainted.

Soul: Good job, Bagon.

He said as he took out a Poke Ball and tossed it at Axew, who got captured by Soul and was now a part of his Hoenn Team.

Afterward, he returned Bagon to his Poke Ball and climbed down the ladder. Reaching the ground, there was almost no light here, making it difficult for most peoples to see. Soul activated his right eye as the entire room light up.

For the past few months of break, Soul had experimented with his artifacts. On one occasion when he decided to take a night stroll, he activated All-Seeing-Eyes for fun. Who knew that it would provide him with night vision?

So as he walked deeper and deeper into the cave, Soul encounter again several wild Pokemon that started to annoy him. He took out max repel and spray it all over his body. This won’t affect captured Pokemon for some reason, but it would make all other none-captured flee away from him.

Suddenly he sensed something. Something was calling him, but what is it? It also seemed that Anubis could feel it as he appeared behind Soul. Trying to find the source of the energy, Soul started to walk forward along with his Pokemon.

When he feels that the energy was closest at he unconsciously extends his hand forward and pressed something.

Opening his eyes, Soul saw a rock wall that has been pushed back. He took his hand back as the hole in the wall moved back forward.

Soul: Well I guess that was somethin-

The ground beneath them cracked as Soul, and Anubis fell on the hole with Mew following behind them while flying.

Soul: ‘I hate this so much.’

All of the time Soul has been to a place where an artifact could be found, there was almost always a hole that he had to fall into for some reason. It’s been a long time since he got the last artifact, and now that he had forgotten about this kind of trap he fell for it once again.

When he could see the bottom Soul stopped gravity force around them as he stopped falling. He then increased it bit by bit as he slowly descends on the ground. Looking around the area, Soul could see a pathway.

Soul: ‘This seems familiar’

He started to walk inside as the feeling of something was calling him got stronger, step by step they arrived at a cave with water surrounding a small cave platform with a color-changing crystal on it.

Just as he was about to go there, a giant Pokemon came out of the water and let out a roar that shook the whole cave. Steven, who was still looking for rare stones felt a sudden chill in his heart as the cave begins to shake.

Steven: ‘What the? Why is there an earthquake out of sudden?’

Looking at the giant Pokemon, Soul was amazed as he saw something unexpected once again. It was Mega-Gyarados! It seemed to be warning Soul and his Pokemon to back off, or else

Soul: I don’t have time for this. Anubis, use Thunder Punch.

Anubis quickly disappeared from Mega-Gyarados sight, before it could react on what happened, Anubis already used Thunder Punch and hit on its head. A big shockwave was created as the cave begins to shakes once more, but this time it was even bigger and stronger than the previous one.

All of the Pokemon flee away from the cave as Steven used his Metagross to escape. The other peoples in the cave also managed to escape.

Gyarados reverted to its original form as Soul walked towards the color-changing crystal. Anubis jumped down from the fainted Gyarados and went to Soul.

Suddenly, both of their Key-Stone and Mega-Stone begin to shine, as the crystal begins to illuminate a bright powerful light that blinded Soul, Anubis, and even Mew.

When the light begins to dim down, the crystal disappeared from their sight as Soul managed to catch something from the last second.

The crystal was absorbed by his Key-Stone, and Anubis Mega-Stone. Several questions came across his mind. What happened? What was that? Why did it do that?

Before he knew it, the water begins to rise as Soul told Mew to transform into Alakazam and get them all out of here. But instead of doing what Soul said, Mew had a smug look of its face. An irk mark appeared on Soul’s head, but he managed to calm himself down but was still annoyed.

Soul: *Sigh*, please

Mew transformed into an Alakazam and teleported all of them out of there. They all arrived outside of the cave and was teleported to a forest close to Dewford Town.

Looking at the town, Soul could see Steven was talking to Officer Jenny. He didn’t want to disrupt them and left the scene.

Soul: ‘Something unexpected happens again. Man, I’m tired.’

*grumble*

Soul: ‘And hungry too’
